Chapter 2588 - 1129: World Traveler Guild
Gaven’s gift was very well-thought-out, and establishing deeper connections with the Card Queen was just the surface.
The real purpose was a probe, attempting to gradually extend his reach into the Endless Heavenly Ladder.
Trade is the most gentle means, and if he could gain the Card Queen’s recognition and support, it would make things much easier.
The Card Queen not only has extraordinary influence among the Winged Snake Women.
In the World Traveler Guild, she also enjoys high popularity and prestige, although she’s not a member of the World Traveler Guild, the guild’s higher-ups have always maintained respect for her and often exchange information about the Endless Heavenly Ladder with her.
Many members of the World Traveler Guild have received help from the Card Queen.
A person who is willing to help others, after walking in the same place for hundreds of years, will inevitably accumulate unimaginable connections.
The Card Queen showed extraordinary adaptability, without any hesitation, and took the Magic Travel Boots with a beaming smile: "Welcome indeed, the arrival of a deity on the Path will certainly bring great convenience to us who are exploring the Endless Heavenly Ladder.
Since sir says so, I won’t be polite.
If you want me to promote for you, it’s not impossible, but there’s a condition."
"What condition?" Gaven openly asked, "Please, feel free to say, ma’am."
The concept of a spokesperson has not yet gained popularity on the Felen Continent.
In the Multiverse, it’s not something new.
Especially in a multi-planar hub like the Endless Heavenly Ladder, where the involved planes number in the thousands, strange and peculiar ideas and concepts emerge in endless succession.
However, the unique design of the Endless Heavenly Ladder makes it like a staircase; most people are just passing by, and once they find the door they want, they never appear here again.
Another hub with permanent residents, Imprint City, is where the true confluence happens.
The population is not large, but the guilds and organizations are myriad, presenting a flourishing diversity.
"The condition is that I feel truly comfortable wearing them." The Card Queen’s smile revealed sincerity, "I will not endorse a pair of uncomfortable shoes."
"That’s only natural." Gaven laughed heartily, "I wouldn’t mass-produce and sell such shoes to others either. How about this, in the future, ma’am, you will not only be our store’s spokesperson at the Endless Heavenly Ladder but also our test wearer.
Before each new product launches, I’ll send someone to give it to you to try on, and we’ll adjust according to your feedback until you’re satisfied, then we’ll produce in bulk for sale."
He was extremely adept at taking advantage of opportunities like this.
"Isn’t this inappropriate?" The Card Queen, encountering such a unique marketing tactic from Gaven for the first time, felt somewhat embarrassed, "I’m not a professional in this field; I’m afraid my suggestions might be counterproductive!"
"A test wearer doesn’t need to be a professional; you just need to honestly report how your feet feel." Gaven patiently explained, "No one is more suitable than you, because the stairs you climb in a year is what many people wouldn’t do in a lifetime. Your experience of whether shoes are comfortable will be far above others."
The Card Queen’s face showed a trace of suspicion: "You seem to know me well? I don’t remember introducing myself!"
Gaven knew his old habit had surfaced again, unconsciously bringing in intelligence from his past life, but he answered seamlessly and unflinchingly: "Although this is our first meeting, I have heard your name more than once during my previous climbs."
"I see." The Card Queen no longer dwelled on it, took off her leggings and flat shoes in public, revealing her crystal-clear, rosy feet.
Her feet were of moderate size and perfectly shaped, devoid of any odor or deformation caused by long years of climbing and traveling, compelling one to take more than a second glance.
Seeing the Card Queen about to wear the travel boots barefoot, Gaven thoughtfully used Divine Power to shape a dozen socks, handing them over: "Put these on first, they’ll be more comfortable and also better for cleanliness and foot protection."
"Thank you!" This time, the Card Queen did not refuse.
As soon as the Magic Travel Boots were on her feet, the previously subtle Magic Aura immediately radiated brightly, enveloping her feet and making fine adjustments visible to the naked eye.
It’s a necessary function of Magic Equipment, especially for armor and shoes, where such equipment with larger differences shows this function to the fullest extent.
Indeed, the range of such adjustments is limited.
Without Special Ability, ordinary magic equipment usually shifts between two body types up and down.
Taking this pair of Magic Travel Boots as an example, it can only be worn on small, medium, and large-sized humanoid creatures; once it exceeds this range, it’s useless.
Medium is the most fitted; when using Shrinking Spell or Enlarge, the Magic Travel Boots will enlarge or shrink accordingly.
However, for small or large humanoid creatures, there are limitations; once it shrinks below small or above large, it won’t fit.
Generally, there won’t be a bursting situation; instead, it will directly integrate into the user’s body, and all abilities will no longer take effect.
After wearing the Magic Travel Boots, the Card Queen immediately couldn’t wait to try them out.
A gentle breeze rose from underfoot, wrapping around her body, giving her a feeling of being as light as a swallow, making both running and jumping much easier.
