At the entrance of the Silver Cloud store, Azure Dragon, Snow Goddess and Chesces has just arrived via a carriage. They wore black cloaks to keep their identity hidden as they didn't want enemy guild spies to find their location and guess their goal.
Although many saw the ludicrous investment that was the Silver Cloud store, not all of them had begun setting their sights on it. Most of the guilds still kept a cautious approach and focused on grinding dungeons and making money, while the others had their attention on the forthcoming contest and we're making preparations for it. In summary, this was the best opportunity for Azure Dragon to push forth his acquisition campaign as once the tournament was over, he would be facing the other guilds in the race to take over the Silver Cloud store.
"You said you've been here a couple of times already?" Yukino asked.
"Thrice. Each time, the boss was never around so I couldn't negotiate with anyone." Azure Dragon replied.
