Weapon seller in the world of magic-Chapter 4 First Sale (Part-2)
"Yes, this is called pistol." Mark raised it and explained the parts to his beloved rich customers. "This is a ranged ungraded weapon and these are bullets. After loading a bullet, you can shoot a target that's ten meters away from you." ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
"Oh! Ten meters?" The young lady's eyes lit up. "I want this."
Just then, her fiancée folds his hands to the back and said, "This weapon is indeed unlike any other thing I have ever seen. However, it is still ungraded. What is the use? And I also have suspicions that a tiny metal thing, what it is called again, yes, bullet, can inflict any damage."
"If that is the case, I can just keep it as a decoration. I can show it off to my friends." While the nobleman doesn't seem that interested as it has zero practical use for someone like him, the young lady on the other hand seemed like she was fond of its appearance and insisted on buying.
*Sigh* "Fine, as long as you are happy." Not intending to quarrel with her, he decided to buy it. It's not like he lacks money anyway.
Looking at Mark, the young man put his hands on the pistol and said, "I'm buying this pistol and rest of those bullets. How much is it?"
"5 gold coins for the pistol, 120 silver coins for six bullets. A total of 6 gold coins and 20 silver coins, please." Mark's smile was never brighter as there wasn't a single sale for the past week and now, it looked like he struck the jackpot. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
However, in the next second, he realized that he counted the chickens too soon.
"You dare to try to scam us?" Suddenly, the young nobleman was enraged and raised his fist. "Are you courting death?"
mark saw a thin strand of red energy around the fist. It was the ether energy present in elite individuals of this world.
However, strangely, his smile never disappeared on his face, and neither there's a look of surprise about his behavior.
Mark just stood in his place as before.
Just as the fist was about to land on the table, suddenly, his arm was caught by a hand.
The eyes of the couples land on the handsome figure before them.
"Customer doesn't have the authority to damage store's property," Allen announced without any expression on his face and released his hand.
The couple was surprised to see that a 3-circle warrior like him was stopped by this shop assistant.
Being in the third realm isn't anything to be proud of. Still, they didn't expect a higher realm expert is working in such a small weapon store as an assistant.
Maintaining a bright smile on his face, Mark then spoke, "If you cannot afford the item, you are free to leave the shop but don't accuse us of cheating, Mr. Customer. You might not find this weapon anywhere else in this empire and rare ones are often more expensive than common items.
Moreover, you can kill a mortal with this. Even if someone is a 1-circle fighter, he will still be heavily injured by this small bullet."
Upon hearing the explanation of the shop owner, the nobleman turned his attention towards Mark. "Did you say that this can deal heavy damage to even a 1-circle fighter?"
Looking at how the customer was calmed down, Mark inwardly sighed in relief and nodded in response, "Yes. If it is from weak physical strength paths like mage or archer, even 2-circle spirit warriors can be injured as long as the bullet hit the vitals."
The nobleman's eyebrows were raised. "An ungraded weapon can injure even 2-circle mages?"
He felt the shop owner was boasting too much. But this time, he didn't lose his cool because of the presence of the Android who stopped his fist without the use of ether energy.
That itself tells him that he couldn't underestimate this shop assistant.
However, at the same time, he couldn't turn his attitude after undermining everything. He has to protect his own pride.
Glancing at the strand-shaped weapon in the hands of Mark, the nobleman said in a serious tone as he placed seven gold coins on the counter, "fine. I'll buy it. However, I need to see its power with my own eyes."
He then raised the fan in his rand. "This is a copper-graded item. Shoot at this. If what you said is true, then, it should leave a dent in it. However, if it really turned out to be an empty talk, you should be ready to face conseque…"
*bang*
Without any warning, Mark loaded the bullet in a flash and shot accurately at the center of the fan.
"kya…" The loud sound from the pistol startled the young lady.
Meanwhile, the nobleman was taken aback by Mark's sudden action, even more so with the bullet making a hole through the fan.
"So, how is it?" Mark looked at him for an answer. He wondered whether this rich fellow will feign ignorance and defame him again or will accept the truth.
Thankfully, the nobleman didn't turn out to be an arrogant young master who looks down on everyone unnecessarily and develops a grudge for every little thing.
"I take it." Without wasting any words, the nobleman nodded.
After explaining how to load a bullet and shoot, he put back the gun and the bullet into the box, "here."
Mark's smile was no longer a fake. It was a genuine one as he officially started his business in this world.
However, the moment he handed over the remaining excess gold coin and the box, a series of notification bells rang in his head and drained away all the happiness he got from this transaction.

As a person who went through so much during his five years imprisonment on that private island, Mark still managed to keep his emotions under control and maintain his smile.
"Please come again." After sending away the couple, Mark returned to his seat and opened the quest list.
Even though he was dissatisfied with how 90% of his earnings have been taken away by the system, still, he looked forward to the new quest.
