Jordan planned to activate the teleporting device after the sun comes down, with the time it would take for the device to establish the connection Jordan still has enough time to prepare whatever he wants.

Before the connection was established Jordan cleaned himself, used few buckets with water, and washed all the blood that dried upon him.

With his evolved body Jordan hardly ever sweated and his body kept itself clean, still, the dirt and blood amassed on him, and needed to clean himself to prevent the smell, Jordan didn't care about it all that much but now that he lives with other humans he has to keep up a good image.

Jordan cleaned himself and changed into a formal cloth that was modified to fit him by a few of the workers and took his bag he has prepared for his trip to the platform, in the bag there were many human ears and two demon horns Jordan got from the demon camp, those were needed to exchange for crystals.

In the catalog, it was stated that even though you can't lie on the platform you have to have proof and that was what the ears were for and the horns Jordan brought in hope of selling them.

The demon army did encourage fights between demons but they did not pay for it, such self-destructive tendencies were too much even for them but still, the demon army might buy the horns as they were excellent materials for alchemy or magic items.

For the rest of the time, Jordan went over the things he planned to do, first ask the slime about the mutations, second buy new weapons, third ask where to acquire a blacksmith, and lastly visit the goblin world.

With this Jordan waited and after a few hours and when the portal showed itself he went in without further ado.

The platform was still the same so Jordan just went to the area where was the handler for his area, few demons talked to the slime, so Jordan got in line and waited.

When it was Jordan´s turn Jordan approached the slime and said.

"Hello, I am here to confirm the increase of humans under my rule, redeem for those (shoving the backpack full of ears), ask some questions, and lastly take the monthly payment."

The slime vibrated and then said "sure, how many humans are under your control?"

"before I teleported there were 417 humans"

The slime vibrated and after a while said "that will be adding 208 crystals to your 100 basics"

Jordan's eyebrows shoot up and curiously he asked, "so, it will be added to this month?"

"yes, we count the number of humans before the end of the month"

That was a good thing for Jordan but still, he couldn't help but complain in his head ´goddammit, hate the person in charge of this mess, they just couldn't mention it in the catalog´

"also count into it those ears, I killed 58 humans and I have all the needed ears"

"as you have proof you can get a full prize that will add 58 crystals as a one-time payment"

If he didn't have the ears Jordan would get only half the amount, at least this was stated in the catalog.

"and I got myself some demon horns, can I sell those somewhere?"

"show them to me"

Jordan took the horns from his backpack and put them before the slime who grew a stump from his body and cast some sort of analyzing spell on the horns.

A few moments later the slime vibrated and spoke "these horns are only from low-rank demons, you can get 25 crystals for one"

´that´s not a lot... but better than have them stored somewhere collecting dust..´

"ok, add it to the total"

"yes, anything else?"

"yes, I have a question concerning centers of power, precisely is it possible for me to awaken more centers of power?"

It looked like the slime thought for a while before he started to vibrate and spoke "that question falls under advanced explanation about centers of power and mana mutations, it will cost you 25 crystals, do you want to proceed?"

"hmm.... yes please"

"we sort mutations into two main groups, first main and second supporting, the main mutations can exist by themselves and their purpose is to attract and store mana, those mutations are normally new mana organs, brain mutations that allows storage and great manipulation of mana, mana heart that allows the same thing and is focused mainly on strengthening, those are the three most powerful, there are subpar mutations such as other organs that mutated and can store mana and also rare such as crystal mana cores... generally the separate mana organ is considered the best possible options but there are some rare variations"

"those are the main mutations, the supporting ones are those that need to be fueled by one of the main mutations and you have some of those, for example, your claws or horns, those mutations constantly use some mana just to be manifested and you mustn't forcefully awaken too many of them if you do so the mana consumption can even be bigger than the mana you absorb and that will make you unable to use mana until you cut off those mutations, the supporting mutations can be awakened with special potions and for example one of the most popular support mutations is awakened skeleton structure, this mutation hardens your bones and nurtures your body, if you are interested you can buy potions for those mutations in the world Esphar"

Slime "but be warned, all the mutations put a strain on your body and the better the mutation the higher the risk of dying, just like with the awakening potion to which normally 1/10 dies when consuming the potion"

"and now for your question, yes you can awaken a new mana organ but it's highly discouraged by all experts, if you, for example, awaken a brain, your mana organ, and the brain will constantly struggle for the mana, they not only attract the mana from the air, they attract the mana from each other as well, after awakening another organ you will have to wait for at least few years before the organs start to synchronize and stop sabotaging one another only those that awakened with both at once don't have those problems, also…"

´waiting several years before being to use mana effectively? no thanks´

"thank you but that´s enough I won't be doing it"

"…yes, that will be all for the explanation"

"one more thing, tomorrow there will be an auction where you can bid to acquired young demons that are 14 years and older, those are the children that mutated in demons and were teleported to the worlds under angel jurisdiction, with the bid you will be first to speak to those demons and if they agree they will be teleport to your teleporting device if they don't agree your bid will be returned and the demons will be auctioned again, that is all"

"That sounds interesting... I will think about it"

It seems that the opportunity to acquire some demon subordinates showed itself on its own.

But for now, Jordan just took the 391 crystals, said goodbye, and went to complete the next item on the list that was getting new weapons.

With the crystals, Jordan got now and with the 40 crystals from the succubus´s demon camp Jordan now has grand total of 431 crystals,

´I feel filthy rich right now, I could buy like 215 goblin workers with this and I would still have one crystal for spare´

With those thoughts Jordan went to the world of Elkular, there Jordan spoke to the dwarf-like creature that was covered in scales and sold him the weapons last time.

Jordan this time wants to buy a new war-hammer and war-axe as he outgrew the ones he currently has besides that he also he wants to buy a bow with some arrows and lastly some whetstone as his ax is already getting a bit dull, fighting the succubus showed him how helpless he was against an opponent with wings and sadly it looks like Jordan won´t be growing any.

Jordan bought basically the same simple war-axe and a war-hammer, both were just bigger version of those he bought before, this time both those weapons were almost 2,2 meters (7 ft 2 in) big and weighted near 30 kilograms and the prize for those was 40 crystals, quite pricey but the weapons proved to be worthy of that prize.

After that Jordan also bought the whetstone and then asked the scaled dwarf.

"I would like to buy a bow and possibly enhanced to guide the arrows"

"hahaha, who wouldn't want that! Sorry to inform you but this enhancement is impossible on the bow but can be put on arrows"

"so how much for enhanced arrows?"

"There are two kinds of arrows, first those that are controlled by the user and second those that follow mark you create, both cost 4 crystals per arrow, normal arrows are 5 per one crystal"

"those guided arrows are enhanced with second circle enhancement and aren't fueled so you need to provide the mana yourself"

Jordan thought it over, he is a complete amateur in shooting with a bow that´s why he wants the arrows, in the end, Jordan decided to buy ten controlled arrows, 5 that follow mana mark, and around 50 normal ones together with a quiver.

"and I would like to buy a blacksmith can you tell me where could I get one?"

"not here that´s for sure, we specify only on selling weapon but try it in Necrot, it´s a world controlled by the undead and they have every kind of profession"

"Thanks, I will be going so bye"

With that Jordan returned to the platform with hands full of weapons, Jordan tried to ask for a spatial ring but the price was absurd, even for the simplest one it was near thousand crystals, he will have to wait till he reaches the fourth circle then he can learn a spatial spell from the book he got from the succubus´s demon camp.

Jordan stored the weapons that he bought for a total of 100 crystals on the platform and with free hands, Jordan went to the goblin world.
