The same bell that the rune smith had made was hanging on the door to the elemental crystal shop. Walker was pleasantly surprised by the soft ting of the bell as it rang through the entire shop when he opened the door. He had expected it to be much louder than it was. Now he was seeing the benefit of the bell and the high chances that it would be a high selling item at the start of the trading between the kingdoms.

The amount of elemental mana that pushed at the two of them as the door came open was not small in the least. Walker's senses were overwhelmed and even Su was having trouble standing it. It was not harmful in the least but it was a lot of stimulation.

"I'll be there in a moment, just let me get a few things in place!" A sweet sounding voice came from deeper in the shop. Walker and Su looked at each other confused. They couldn't figure out how a child would have been running a shop like this.

The sound of rushing feet came from behind a few shelves and a short elf girl appeared. She was wearing a rainbow of fabrics which all had elemental runes sewn in to them. Her long hair was woven with colored ribbons the same as the dress she wore. "Hello, I had a feeling I would have visitors today. I am the spirit mage Bree, it is a pleasure to meet you."

After the elf girl Bree gave a bow she stood tall and proceeded with the usual routine for a shopkeeper, "What can I do for you today? Are looking for anything specific?"

She saw the looks the two were giving her and quickly realized what they might be thinking. "I forgot you were humans and weren't used to spirit mages. I look like I am very young by human standards, however, I am one of the eldest elves in the city. We spirit mages have a passive skill called spirit body."

"I would like to tell you that I am less confused...but." Bree had a feeling she had confused Walker and Su more, and Walker confirmed it.

"Well spirit mages are special systems, not many of us exist at one time. We have the spirit body passive skill which allows one elemental spirit of each type to reside within us. This makes outr bodies age at a snail's pace, even related to an elf. We are responsible for the production of all the elemental mana crystals in the city."

"I believe Alma mentioned this. She said that the water elemental spirits can make water elemental crystals." Su recalled a passing moment where Alma had said this fact.

"Correct. I have a system that lets me bond with elemental spirits and then ask for their help to condense elemental mana in to crystals. The fun part is extracting mana from a crystal which is an earth element normally and changing it to be another element. Oh, but don't let me bore you. What are you looking for?"

Walker had to struggle to say something for a minute. He had just been given a lot of information on a system that he had never heard of and skills he had never heard of. "I am sorry, but you really have elemental spirits living in your body?" Su was having a hard time wrapping her mind around this.

"Yes, they are bonded to my soul. We are partners for life. If I perish they take my energy and use it to grow. It is a very natural moment for spirit mages. But that won't be for a long time, I have maybe four or five hundred years." She said this while casually waving her arms.

"You say that like it isn't a big deal…" Walker was stunned beyond belief hearing this.

"It is very common for a spirit mage to live hundreds of years. One of my friends has lived for double my lifespan, and she still thinks she will live another hundred." Walker and Su felt they were suffering multiple blows every time this elf spoke. She seemed to have an endless supply of ground breaking information to upturn what the two thought was normal.

"You know, I am used to shocking my party and those I meet, but you have outdone me so quickly." Walker could only admit the truth of what he was thinking at the moment.

"I am used to it. A lot of young elves are sent by their parents to get the crystals they need and I am a very large surprise. They always ask where my mother and father are. They are so cute when they realize that I am ten times their age." Bree giggled for a few moments while she thought of how many she had confused when they came in to her shop.

"Well, now that I feel like I have a small grasp on the situation, I am here for some dual elemental crystals. I am thinking of using them to make a staff that can enhance every elemental spell I use." Walker's idea was not something crazy by any means and Bree instantly understood.

"Then I have some of the best crystals for you. I even have a few triple elemental crystals if you would like them?" Walker had not thought that triple elemental mana crystals were possible, but was again surprised.

"What elements are they?" Su and Walker had barely stepped inside the shop and they were already ready to spend whatever necessary.

I have one that is earth, fire, and darkness elemental manas in one large crystal. It is made for underground heating. It can make magma under the right stimulation. Then I have a light, water, and air elemental crystal which is ideal for making rain in a greenhouse." Walker and Su were amazed by this lesson.
