Chapter 701: End of Gravitas (1/2)
”This is bullshit! I demand to speak with the manager!” someone shouted in front of the Gravitas.
Yersi stood in front of that person with a smile. ”We have publicly shown the time until the Gravitas closes for the past decades. You have seen the countdown when you have bought your current weapon. The time is up, and we have just closed shop. You should have come earlier.”
”And what am I supposed to do with this weapon now?” the person shouted angrily as he showed his spear. ”I have already reached the next Realm and don't need this weapon anymore! You told me that I could sell it back for 80% of its cost!”
”As I've said,” Yersi answered. ”We are closed. For the last couple of months, we have mostly processed the buying back of our previously forged weapons. If you had come earlier, there wouldn't have been any issues.”
The person just wouldn't relent, but at this point, Gravis stepped out of the Gravitas. Orthar already stood beside Yersi without saying anything.
Gravis retrieved a jade token and looked at it. ”We are finished with our business. Please proceed with the last inspection,” Gravis said to the token.
A supremely powerful Spirit Sense entered the building and inspected it for a second. Yet, none of the present people were able to feel this Spirit Sense.
This was the Spirit Sense of an Ancestral God, the owner of the building.
”Everything's in order,” the owner of the building transmitted to Gravis. ”You still have three months until you have to hand the shop over. Are you sure you want to hand it over now? I won't reimburse you.”
”It's fine,” Gravis said. ”We've already closed.”
”So be it,” the voice said.
Whooop!
And the jade token in Gravis' hand vanished. From this point on, none of the three could enter the building anymore, even if they wanted to. The key had been handed back to the owner.
Right now, the Gravitas greyed out again to show that no one was inside it. The new owner had already won the auction for this property and was only waiting until their lease began.
Gravis had already retrieved the several Certificates of the shop. The shop might belong to another person, but the Certificates were his.
The Gravitas didn't exist anymore. The century of business was over, and now it was time to use their money to increase their power.
”Hey, I want to sell my weapon!” the irate customer said to Gravis.
”To whom?” Gravis asked.
”What do you mean to whom!?” he angrily asked. ”To you!”
”Sorry, I'm not interested,” Gravis commented.
The customer was taken aback. ”But you said you would buy it back!”
”No, I didn't,” Gravis said. ”That was the Gravitas' policy, and the Gravitas doesn't exist anymore. Right now, I'm just a dude standing on a street, just like you.”
”This is bullshit!” the customer shouted. ”Take the weapon back, or I will ruin the Gravitas' reputation.”
”Okay,” Gravis said.
”You'll take it back?”
”No, you can go ahead and ruin the Gravitas' reputation,” Gravis said. ”Why would I care about the reputation of something that doesn't even exist?”
The customer only became angrier. ”You are sup-”
Whoop!
And the three of them were gone.
Now, the customer stood alone in front of the Gravitas in shock. After recovering from the shock, he searched through the city with his Spirit Sense, but he couldn't find them.
The customer complained and grumbled several more times, but it was irrelevant. The Gravitas didn't exist anymore. Whatever he did had nothing to do with Gravis, Orthar, or Yersi anymore.
After a while, the customer angrily stomped off.
Meanwhile, Gravis, Orthar, and Yersi appeared inside the Opposer's room.
As soon as they appeared, Yersi sighed in relief and stretched herself. ”Finally done!” she said with happiness. ”I never want to deal with another customer in my life!”
”Congratulations!” Gravis' mother said as she also appeared in the room. ”You've earned a ton of money! Oh, I'm so proud of all of you!”
PACK!
Gravis and Yersi were pulled to Gravis' mother, who quickly hugged them. ”My cute little babies finished their first business venture!”
The two of them only laughed and returned the hug.
Some seconds passed.
”Can you do that somewhere else?” the Opposer asked evenly. ”You're sidetracking us.”
