The others in the storefront had been busy all morning, and it was finally time for lunch break. They used the chance to rest or attend to their own matters.
Sunlight streamed through the windows, casting a hazy glow over everything in the shop, lending the place an air of peaceful serenity.
Just then—
A massive shadow fell across the sky.
A gigantic Cloud Manta flying ship pierced through the clouds, gliding gracefully as it descended into the docking yard.
Once it steadied, tow vehicles from the square drove over to guide the flying ship, slowly swiveling its body until it eventually docked at a designated berth on the yard's edge.
Soon enough, the rear hatch of the Cloud Manta flying ship opened, and a group of crew members began unloading cargo from within.
The moment Shopkeeper Chai saw the commotion, he knew business was coming his way.
