Chapter 9: 9 Stubborn La Sike
Who would have thought that it's been a decade since she obtained the Trading Device, yet to this day, it still can't be upgraded? She has only one friend, and because no trades have been made, she can't search for other people in different Planes.
Ye Jiu opened the ssage and saw the only text her friend La Sike had sent, "Ye Jiu, Ye Jiu, did you find sothing to trade with
today?"
Just like Ye Jiu, La Sike had obtained the Trading Device around the sa ti, but both were still at the lowest level of existence.
If Ye Jiu's inability to upgrade was due to her physical condition preventing her from trading, then La Sike's misfortune was purely accidental, having first connected with a friend like herself who couldn't trade, which resulted in this situation.
Another reason for their inability to level up was La Sike's sheer stubbornness.
In contrast, Ye Jiu felt both angry and helpless.
La Sike would text ssages like this almost every ti he had a mont, showing that he, too, was really looking forward to trading.
With a helpless sigh, Ye Jiu sent back her reply, "La Sike, you know my physical condition, and besides, I was hit on the head by soone yesterday and am still in a comatose state, utterly powerless to help."
La Sike was very disappointed, "Your body still hasn't been detoxified? The Plane you're in is way too backward. If you were here, a simple dose of antidote would sort it all out."
Ye Jiu: "La Sike, won't you consider just giving
an antidote, I promise I won't let you down. As soon as I recover, I will imdiately find an item of equivalent value to your antidote to give back to you."
The Plane La Sike inhabited was an advanced one, sowhat similar to the Star Plane, where technology and other aspects were highly developed. Furthermore, from what La Sike had said, an antidote was not very valuable to him.
Ye Jiu had made this proposal more than once, but La Sike, despite seeming easy to talk to, was actually very stubborn.
He was convinced that unless Ye Jiu could offer an item of equivalent value, he would not provide her with any help.
Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't have been at an impasse for years, unable to complete even one trade and consequently stalling their own progress. In Ye Jiu's view, it was all because La Sike didn't know how to adapt.
However, the items were La Sike's, and if he didn't wish to comply, there was nothing Ye Jiu could do about it, even if she wanted to take them!
This ti, La Sike rejected her as bluntly as ever: "That won't do, a trade ans you definitely have to use your own items in exchange for mine."
Although the value of an antidote wasn't high, La Sike was a principled man and didn't want to break his own rules for the sake of others.
Ye Jiu was resigned; deep down she was angry enough to curse out loud, but with her Trading Device having only this one friend, she figured it was best not to offend him. Who knows when she might need his help!
Ye Jiu: "Alright then, if you're unwilling, let's leave it at that. To have t across Plane Space is our shared fate. However, this might be my last ti entering the Dinsional Space. If you suddenly can't contact
in the future, don't panic; it will certainly be because I'm no longer in this world."
La Sike: "With the Plane Trading Space in existence, aren't the toxins in your body not life-threatening? Why do you say that you won't be in this world?"
