In the evening Elena went out of the royal palace for a walk. The sun had just started to set and the whole capital was bathed in a dreamy red and orange colour. Alongside the capital's own mostly red focused colour scheme, it looked amazing.
After leaving the royal palace Elena started to check the vicinity of the palace. There were mostly administrative buildings there which was kinda boring. So Elena left that location and went a bit farther from the royal palace.
After the administrative area, Elena came to the residential area of the high ranking officials and nobles. This area not only had the houses of the officials but also had many high end stores for their families to use. Now this was a location that was interesting to explore for Elena.
She saw many types of shops while taking a walk. Most of them were high end shops for dresses or make up items. There were a few book shops too. But there were almost zero shops that sold good items.
Finally after walking for some time, Elena came across a large restaurant called "Absolute Pleasure Palace". Just as she was thinking why this restaurant had a brothel like name, she saw two fat old men coming out with loose clothes. Then she finally used her abilities to find out that this place was actually a brothel in disguise of a restaurant.
Elena was not in the mood to enter a brothel to chat with the courtesans for now so she left the place to find a new place.
Suddenly while walking around Elena came across a weird shop. The name of this place was Heavenly Treasure Pavillion. But the shop was actually just a one story shabby looking building. It looked even more desolate in the luxurious atmosphere of the high end residential area.
But even though the looks of the shop did not match the name, the items sold here did. The treasures that were on display were all very valuable. Even though they were not legendary items but were just only one or two ranks lower than legendary items. Seeing such an expensive set, the spendthrift in Elena's heart suddenly woke up and she quickly went to the store.
After entering it, she was greeted by a pair of old grandpa and his grand daughter who looked like 12 or 13 years old. She enthusiastically greeted Elena who looked like a rich person and asked what type of item she wanted. Currently Elena was using a skill to lower her beauty so she was not getting exaggerated reactions.
Elena immediately waved her hands like a arrogant prodigal young master and said in a haughty tone of voice -
"Pack up all the items your little shop has."
Hearing her the professional smile on the little girls smile twitched. But she still tried to act like a little adult and said in a remonstrating tone -
"Young miss, please don't be absurd. Even though we look like this, all the items you can find here are genuine. Feel free to look them over carefully before choosing to buy one."
Hearing that the arrogant smile on Elena face widened and with a shit eating grin she asked -
"Little girl, don't spout nonsense. You're just a frog living in a well who does not know about the outside world. When I say I want to buy anything, then I will definitely buy it. Don't waste my time and tell me the price. And start packing them up."
Hearing her haughty words and arrogant attitude, the little girl whose name was Bao Lujin was very irritated. So to teach his short sighted young miss a lesson, she decided to tell her the actual price of all the items combined, which she had calculated when she was bored.
"Hmph, you're the one who knows nothing about the outside world. But let me tell you the actual price just to break your delusion. Hmph. Even though various items here are priceless, if we put a price tag on all of them then the total would be about 17.8 billion R."
As Bao Lujin said the amount with a smug smile, the smile disappeared from Elena's face. Just as little Bao was gloating on her heart seeing this, Elena took out a small bag and threw it at her. Then she said again in a more haughty and arrogant tone -
"Hmph, just a poor shop and you were trying to boost before me. This young miss here spends more than the amount you mentioned for my food. Even my servant's salary is greater than that."
Hearing her boosts, veins started to bulge on the little girl's cute little face, even the grandpa who was completely silent and looked like nothing could move him twitched slightly. He was dumbfounded. How can anyone boast about giving their servant over a billion R as salary.
But still Bao Lujin opened the small pouch. She had noticed that this pouch was not even a spacial bag and was just a normal bag. And after opening it, the room did not get filled with gold coins or anything. But just two small coins came out of it.
But as soon as that happened, the young girl holding the coins fell on her knees. The steady old man also fell out from his chair and exclaimed in disbelief -
"Celestial Coins ? How can this be ? Impossible. I'm probably getting senile with old age. It is absolutely impossible."
The little girl also had her mouth agape. Her hand holding the coins was trembling but she did not dare to let the coins fall. After a few moments passed, she finally spoke in a shaking voice - "N-no, ii-impossible."
Seeing this whole scene Elena was laughing her ass off in her heart. This was one of the scenarios that she wanted to act out and after really doing it, she felt amazing. Then and once again spoke up in an arrogant tone -
"Look at you peasants. Getting so shaky after seeing just a few celestial coins. How disgraceful."
"Please forgive our insolent and disrespectful attitude from earlier. We will pack up all the items in our shop for you. Please take all of them and take back your celestial coins too. We are extremely lucky just to get a chance to touch it. We can't keep it with us."
Saying so the old man hurriedly stood up and started to pack all the magic items in a spacial bag. And now it was Elena's turn to be dumbfounded. Before giving the celestial coins she had expected that the pair of grandfather and granddaughter would react in awe, but she had never expected the reaction to be so exaggerated. She immediately used her abilities to find the reason and after knowing it she could only hold her head in her mind.
Even though the celestial coins were also just a type of coin, it had a very special significance in this world. Actually the celestial coins were something that only the supreme goddess of duality, Lyamirathena could create. So only the gods and very high ranking demigods had access to them. Even not all the gods could get their hands on it.
Elena had definitely considered these coins to be very valuable, but she was honestly not too interested in them to do a deep research. So she had no idea about its actual value. Then to mitigate the situation, Elena took back her two celestial coins and gave the pair an equivalent amount of white gold coins. She had already checked and the white gold coins did not have any kind of trouble attached to it except for being very valuable.
She even returned back to her real behaviour and gave the little girls some snacks that she made. It was her way to apologise to the girl for nearly giving her a heart attack.
...
After leaving that shop, Elena walked around the high end residential area a bit more at night time before returning to the palace when it was for dinner. Yesterday she would be getting some guides to help her to navigate the capital better.
She had also promised a few sects to visit their humble place and she was also going to go to one such sect tomorrow. So she needed to take a very good rest to get ready for the following day, even though she really did not need it.
But after coming to her room, she found a pouting little princess there. She came to play with her beautiful elder sister, but the elder sister had already left her behind to go outside to play. She got betrayed. She even acted like she was a husband whose wife was cheating on him. So Elena spent some time playing with the cute Lil princess before having dinner. Then when her tummy was satisfied, she went to have a relaxing sleep.
It's been quite some time since she came to this world and she could happily say that she was spending a very enjoyable time here.
