Chapter 120 - 117 : How About This? (1/2)

Lucy didn't waste time contemplating the displayed items. There were some exclusive and good-looking rings or diamonds but none of them caught her interest as she had countless ones like them if not better in her storage.

Arthur possessed thousands and thousands of people, he wasn't too interested in their storages as they were weak so it's unlikely they had any legendary weapon but Lucy was fond of checking the storage rings and taking all their treasures. It was her small hobby that she never missed a storage ring a victim wore.

It could be said that her fortune was literally priceless, the mountains of gold and useless things for her were everywhere in the storage, especially in Arthur's since his storage ring was special.

She liked collecting the treasures not because of the gold or diamonds but for the weapons, armors and all the weird stuff. Although her storage wasn't that big compared to Arthur, she still had hundreds of rings inside her main one and each had a specific thing.

Lucy's goal in coming here was clear, she wanted money, not the kind used on Astria but the one used on Earth. With just the gold Arthur gave her, she could easily become a millionaire if not richer but the problem was; Would the country or this shop more precisely be able to give her the value of the gold she currently had?

She was not stupid enough to show all of her gold and even if she did, the shop would be destroyed by it, literally. For now, taking one or two diamonds would be enough, she didn't need that much money, just enough to buy a normal house in Séoul.

”Dear customer, please tell me if you are looking for anything specific, our shop has any kind of jewelry and even rare pendants.”

The ugly employee arrived next to Lucy and Delia who was behind her. No matter how much he tried to put up a friendly smile, it still looked disgusting as he originally looked way ugly with a big deformed nose and some broken teeth.

Lucy didn't judge people based on their appearances but she caught him gazing at them somewhat lustfully when they just entered the building, fortunately, she noticed that or else she would have thought he was just ugly but a kind person.

As it is the job of the employees here, they have to appeal to the customers, especially the special ones and Gun was trying his best to do that.

Seeing the appearance of the new customers, he didn't miss the opportunity and walked next to them and respectfully said that but to his surprise, Lucy didn't as much as give the displayed goods a single glance.

”I want to sell things.”

Lucy was able to talk Korean but her accent was a bit weird and she would stutter sometimes as it was completely different from the one used in Astria or even the Underworld.

Gun was not very pleased with what heard as customers who come to buy or to sell in two different categories. He didn't hate or dislike Lucy for what she said, he just felt disappointed for he expected to sell expensive things to these two pretty ladies.

This shop mainly sold and there was rarely any person who comes to sell if some come, they would show a fake gold ring or show a bronze ring and yells 'It's a magic ring!'.

This is a famous shop was this rule of buying good jewelry was just for show, this happening maybe occurred one or twice at most in a year's time.

If people wanted to sell gold or jewelry, they should just go to a gold bank or a normal jewelry store and not come here to show some lowly rings or fake gold.

While trying to maintain his happy mood but failing to do so, Gun still nodded to Lucy and replied

”Of course of course, what would you like to sell?”

With an expressionless face, Lucy took out a fist-sized purple diamond that had a breathtaking luster inside it. Its appearance looked alluring and by no means did it look fake, the sudden appearance of the diamond surprised Gun who was expecting just a gold ring or some casual thing.

The lady was special but taking out a diamond out of nowhere and a fist-sized one would surprise anyone.

”T,Th--this is?”

It was as clear as the sun that the object she took out was a purple diamond yet the employee still asked which made Lucy frown. Such is just one of countless she had but it didn't have a great value compared to the nail-sized but special ones, the reason she took out this was because she thought it'll fetch her a good price because its appearance would draw anyone and attract their greed and attention.

It took her a second to think of the needed words than with the usual weird accent, she retorted while still frowning

”It's a diamond. Are you going to buy or not?”

Lucy was not attracted to this store and on Earth, there were countless of them, being famous is not something that she cared about. Moreover, she didn't want to play games or just stand there and watch their surprise.

Gun was not able to react as he couldn't make that decision, he was not a professional to check if the thing is real or not and even he was, he can't put an exact value for it, just its size was enough to raise the price by at least ten times.

Just as he was going to call the store's manager, an old but unhappy voice rang out in the shop.

”It's a fake.”

The origin of the voice was a man in his 50's, he wore casual work clothes and looked at the purple diamond for sometime before he continued talking with the old woman from before. He held a nice-looking necklace in his hand and showed the small but shiny diamonds around it to the woman on his right.

”Seriously, why are we sinking so low just for you to trade some random diamonds?”

Delia just followed Lucy because she was ordered to and even Arthur repeatedly warned her to protect his wife and daughter when they were in the cave.

She didn't pay attention when coming here as her mind was troubled about the loss of a wing and her weakening. What she just said was transmitted telepathically inside Lucy's head so only she could hear it.
