Aeon of Order: "They're camping the respawn point? The local Aeons have no manners!" (10K)

"I have a female friend who kept getting the short end of the stick with a male friend, so she wanted something that would let her do whatever she wanted to him!"

After Sparkle practically recited those words in resignation, the feeling of restraint abruptly loosened.

Sparkle instantly felt refreshed in both body and mind—until she looked up and saw the strange looks in Jade and Firefly's eyes.

"...I said it was a friend of mine."

Sparkle reminded them.

"Mhm, mhm. So, is your friend also an Intelligent Machine? No, I should ask... is that female friend's male friend a human or an Intelligent Machine?"

Jade asked.

Barring any surprises, this customer's friend was probably the customer herself, and the Intelligent Machine she liked should also be an Intelligent Machine.

But what if?

Technology was so advanced these days. Even if this Intelligent Machine lady got herself some high-tech upgrades, she could still date a human.

"..."

"Relax. No one will tell anyone about your request. If that male friend is an Intelligent Machine, I have some computer parts here. If he's human, I also have some 'computer parts.'"

An elegant, composed smile rested on Jade's lips.

Normally, Jade would never do this kind of business.

And who came to Jade's Pawnshop for something like this?

My Jade's Pawnshop is not your dating agency! Much less a marriage broker! And definitely not a brothel!

But the current situation was clearly anything but normal.

If Jade's guess was correct, then if she failed to complete this transaction or fulfill the wishes of the Sparkle beside her, Jade's Pawnshop might attract some rather troublesome consequences.

So even if the wish of the person before her was utterly absurd, Jade could only grit her teeth and keep asking.

Damn Masked Fools!

"A human."
