The Omnistore System-Chapter 64 Deserving?
"These last beauties might not have the flashiest tricks like the previous ones, but they're tough and sharp as they come. However, they're more straightforward. No thunder or poison business here. Let's just call them 'Purple Beauties.' How does that sound?" The young man asked with a professional smile.
Meanwhile, Kevin was absorbed in examining the specs of the knife.
[Item: Werdian Blades
Tier: Peak Heaven
Level: +A
Price: 500,000 Omni Tokens]𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Kevin's thoughts raced as he stared at the price of the seemingly simple blades. "What could these blades be made of to cost this much?" he wondered. The previous two knives he looked at were priced under 1,000 omni tokens, nothing like this one. Yet, the way the salesman described them made it clear he wasn't aware of their true value.
Taking a deep breath to steady his excitement, Kevin composed himself and inquired, "Could you tell me the prices of these?"
The employee responded, "Certainly. The Lightning Slasher is priced at 39,000 units, the Serpent Saw is around 40,000, and as for the pair of Purple Beauties, they'll be about 11,000."
As Kevin maintained a composed face, inwardly, his heart raced with excitement. 'What a steal! Just 10,000 units for items potentially valued at 50 million! I'm going to be rich!'
Internally celebrating his apparent good fortune, Kevin decided to dig a little deeper. "If you don't mind, can you tell me where these knives come from?"
"To be honest, it's no secret. Earlier this year, the young master of the Benvar family stumbled upon a ruin. Most of the weapons in the shop are sourced from that ruin. The best ones go to the family's descendants, but these weapons here are still pretty good for the average folk like us," the employee explained.
Kevin recalled some information he had read about ruins on a web portal. 'If I remember correctly, ruins are like pocket dimensions, right?'
'I should read up on them. They sound like great places for treasure hunting.' With this thought in mind, Kevin looked at the blades and made his offer. "I'd like to get the Lightning Slasher and the Serpent Saw. Unfortunately, I don't have enough money to purchase both. How about we settle for 50,000 units for both of them?" He pointed at the Serpent Saw and the Purple Blades.
The young man paused for a moment, clearly considering the offer. A glint of amusement danced in his eyes as he responded, "Well, I suppose we can work something out. For both of these blades, it's a deal."
The actual price of the Purple Blades was less than 8,000 units, and for the Serpent Saw, it was around 36,000 units. With Kevin's offer of 50,000 units for both, the employee still made a tidy commission of 6,000 units. So, both parties were left smiling, their satisfaction matching their respective grins.
While the employee made a modest profit of 6,000 units, Kevin had struck gold, pocketing nearly 50 million units with a mere difference of 50,000 units. And that was just the tip of the iceberg, considering he could potentially increase the blade's selling price by an additional 25 million units if he chose to do so.
Enthralled by the impressive specifications of the blade, Kevin resolved to give it a try before deciding whether to part with it.
After handing over the payment and stowing the knife in his spatial ring, which left the employee visibly shocked as Kevin didn't appear to possess something of such value, he proceeded to the store that he had entrusted to Sia's care.
Upon arriving at the store, Kevin noticed Sia engrossed in her phone screen, quickly closing it as he entered.
"Any customers dropped by looking for something?" Kevin inquired, approaching the table where Sia was seated.
Sia shook her head in reply.
"They'll came soon?... But for now, let's check out what I've got, my favorite booty call," Kevin grinned, producing a weathered book from his spatial ring.
Sia's eyes widened in astonishment, her gaze fixed on the ring. Even someone with her limited knowledge understood the rarity and costliness of such items—devices capable of holding objects larger than their size. She couldn't fathom how a teenager like Kevin could possess one without the backing of a powerful individual.
However, there was no time to dwell on her shock, as her attention quickly shifted to the item he extracted from the ring – an aged-looking book. As her eyes settled on it, her surprise deepened, and she couldn't help but ask, "Is that a cultivation technique?"
Kevin affirmed her suspicion with a nod, his hand reaching around her waist as he pulled her in closer. "Indeed, it's a peak earth-tier cultivation technique called 'Celestial Balance'."
With that, he handed her the book, which she eagerly accepted, her eyes shining with excitement as she began to examine its pages.
Her voice tinged with enthusiasm, she asked, "Is this for me?" Her gaze never left the ancient characters on the pages.
Kevin's heart warmed at her excitement, and he replied, "It very well could be."
"Really? How?" Sia inquired, tearing her gaze away from the book to meet Kevin's smiling face.
He drew her even closer, his words laced with a playful tone. "All you have to do is show that you're worthy of it."
Her curiosity piqued, Sia pressed on, her eagerness evident, "And how can I prove that?"
Kevin's response was indirect, his hands shifting to rest on her round, ample buttocks as he spoke, "It's simple – just put these magical hips of yours to some pleasureful use."
"Then, you would give this to me?" Sia's asked as her voice carried a mix of excitement and suspicion.
Kevin's grin widened, his eyes holding a playful glint as he replied, "Well, I got this for you, so why wouldn't I?"
As he gently squeezed her well-rounded bottom, she was clad in his loose-fitting t-shirt and pajama bottoms. Earlier, despite her intention to head home and change, Kevin had persuaded her to mind the store while he finalized the deal with Keyana.
