1062 Tell me more

Once he finished up with Master Haraash, Lex walked out to find Vera waiting for him. Originally, he was planning on giving her a drop of Mountain Milk as her payment, but it was only now that he had received the information did he realize that it was nowhere near enough. This put him in a bit of a pickle.

Vera grinned as she saw Lex struggling to decide what to pay her with. This was something she had already foreseen, and was looking forward to enjoying.

"Before I pay you, is there anything specific you need? It might be better to help you out rather than give you random rewards."

"Nope, I'm good," she said, and then flashed a bright smile.

Lex groaned, then gave her the drop of Mountain Milk.

"This is your advance payment. Give me some time, I'll need to figure out what else I can use to pay you."

Vera happily grabbed the vial that contained the drop and said, "No worries. It'll take me a few days to absorb this anyway."
