"Wait!"
I said to the old snake as it began to disappear; it became visible again as it tuned. "What? Do you want to fight me?" it asked mockingly, but I could see its eyes became extremely alert as it looked at me.
"No, I am not strong enough to fight you yet," I replied; even with all the advancements, I could still not kill this dangerous bastard.
"Then why do you stop me?" it asked snappily, "I am wondering whether you are interested in little trade?" I asked, and immediately, its eyes lit up.
"Name your price; as long as it is not excessive, I am willing to pay it for Anrd," it said to which I shook my head.
"Anrd is dead; it is not coming back alive, ever," I said, which it glared at me.
"I was hoping to trade some rare materials," I added, and after a while, a crystal appeared in my hand, which I threw toward the old snake.
