Ranking System-Chapter 46 Unsuspecting Request (Part I)

Half an hour had passed since Reina, and I received our rankings. The rumors of me being first had spread throughout the school forums.

There were a few people that had blocked my way for a few conversations. But Reina's and Nene's terrifying gazes made everyone move out of the way.

The two of them were still angry at one another. Leaving the school building, we had to do a spending spree.

Everything on this island is now half-price. I will buy everything that this island has to offer. But where should I go first?

"Reina, Montgomery. Could you lead us to where we could buy artifacts or tools to help us grow in power?"

They have been in Brave Academy for a while, so they should know a place or two.

"Young Master, are you alright with the prices ranging to millions or possibly billions?"

Hearing Montgomery says billions made my heartbeat. Billions... What on earth would cost billions... This is an investment. Yeah, an investment. I could surely make them back quickly. Surely... 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

"Montgomery, take me there!"

Gathering my courage, I bravely ask Montgomery to take us to the place. Nene and Reina were shocked to see me go. I'm not a cheapskate. I love money, but spending it is necessary when I have too much.

Montgomery then led us the way. On our way there, you could see the status difference here compared to the usual place. Everyone here was higher ranking and had money.

With Montgomery leading, we got to the first store pretty quickly. The store we ended up in is a ranking shop.

A ranking shop would usually sell items to increase your rank. But at the expense of it, they're very pricey.

Before we could enter the store, there were bodyguards outside observing us. I guess they would need a lot of people to secure the store. I would imagine that the valuables here would be guarded tightly.

Seeing that we were allowed to go in, the bodyguards blocking the way made room for us. I was a bit nervous for the first time coming in.

"Master~! You don't need to be nervous~! It's not like anyone here could stop you from doing whatever you want~!"

What Nene said is correct. But she shouldn't have said that out loud. Reina looked at Nene like she was an idiot.

"Stupid cat, I get you're trying to help Charles. But your loud mouth is unpleasant."

"Please don't fight. I will make you sleep together on the couch if you do."

If they fought here in public, I would be too embarrassed. What I said had shut them up. For them to do that was the last thing they wanted.

Going back to shopping, the store here was vast and beautiful. With how decorated this place was, it wouldn't be surprising if the store spent millions on the ascetics.

We are looking at what could be bought in this place, from strengthening items to artifacts. There are even tokens sold in this store.

I might want a token one day. Wouldn't it be cool if I could rule a world? If I ruled over it, I would drain the world for resources.

"Five billion..."

The token for a world invasion costs five billion. It's still expensive even with a considerable discount.

"Charles, I implore you not to buy it."

I could see Reina worried about the thought of me buying it. But I wasn't that stupid. There was no benefit for me to do so.

"I was just shocked by the price. The current me would stand no chance. So I wouldn't bother with it."

"Besides, I didn't think you would think so low of me to be stupid to buy something this expensive."

"How could you think that Master is an idiot~!"

"..."

"I was just worried..."

Great, now I feel like a dick for saying that. With that said, Reina felt terrible. I wasn't good with this sappy stuff, but I would do my best to make it up to her.

I then kissed Reina on the lips. She was surprised but welcomed it greatly. Nene was fuming while Montogery had a sigh of relief. He realized I felt bad and was terrible at cheering someone up.

"Master~! That's not fair~!"

With a kiss to Reina, I also gave one to Nene. Keeping these girls in line is mentally draining. And with that settled, we went for other things to buy.

Next is an alley full of drugs, medicine, and training potions. The quality of these things is one of the best I have seen. Even if they were expensive, I was willing to pay for them.

I was now rich enough to provide for both Nene and Reina. I couldn't be with them every second unless my skill allowed me to observe them from around the globe. They're not one hundred percent safe.

"Let's buy these."

"Master~? Do you need that much~?"

"I'm not only buying it for myself. But for the both of you as well."

They couldn't believe their eyes, hearing what I had said. The two of them had looked at one another.

Nene put her hand on my forward, checking if I was ok.

"Oi! I'm not sick. I can't have you guys die when I'm not around."

"Master~! I didn't know you cared so much for me~!"

Nene outright hugged me, making it hard for me to move. Reina joined in, not wanting to lose. Thinking about it, these two are easily influenced by me. I sigh and let them do their thing.

What I bought were medicines that would strengthen the body's constitution. Using them as materials for bathing would do wonders for the three of us.

Buying a month's worth of them already costs five hundred million. We've only been here for a few minutes, and a lot was already spent.

I hope my heart won't crack from all this shopping. With the first few things bought, I continued onward.
