Weapon seller in the world of magicchapter 3.1: first sale (part-1)

It was evening. A crescent moon was accompanied by a few stars in the skies of Imperial city.

Meanwhile, in one of the streets of the Hanga district, a couple of young age is traveling in a carriage vehicle with several shopping bags.

Upon spotting at the carriage, the civilians walking nearby hurriedly moved aside to clear the way.

It's not the carriage or the couple they feared. More exactly, it's the wolves that are pulling it.

And they aren't normal wolves either.

These people with lower ranks only found them terrifying and didn't know that they were of rank-4.

If they knew, instead of giving the way, they would have started running away from them.

Like spirit warriors, ranked beasts can use ether and have skills too. On the same level, they are stronger than humans of the same level. So, to tackle such beasts, unless they are of 5-circle or above, going against them is just foolishness.

To own such beasts, the couple is indeed has a wealthy or powerful background.

"Stop!" The young lady suddenly yelled just as the carriage was about to enter another street. She started to stare through the window.

"What happened?" The man asked her.

"Dear, look at that." She pointed at a certain glowing signboard.

As the man looked in the direction her finger is at pointing at, he saw a signboard that was glowing brightly in the dim-lit neighborhood.

The most eye-catching part is the store name written on the signboard, which has seven different colors from Red on the top to Violet on the bottom. "Genesis? Never heard of it. And what's that?"

He concentrated on the strange symbol that was drawn below the word. It was the symbol of two handguns in a cross shape. However, he never saw that symbol, previously.

In a normal situation, he wouldn't go to such a poor neighborhood, but those neon lights really intrigued his fiancée.

"Driver, go there."

The carriage changed its lane and slowly went towards the destination.

The young noble then asked the driver to check out what kind of store it is.

Following his employer's orders, the carriage driver stepped down from his seat and walked into the store.

Within no time, he returned to the carriage and informed them that is a weapon store.

The young nobleman frowned as he heard it.

"My beloved, I bet this signboard was just a trick to attract customers. What can this normal weapon store of a shabby street offer us? Let's leave." As soon as he heard that it is a weapon store, the young nobleman lost interest in it.

At first, the young lady thought he was right but then, as her eyes wandered at the signboard once again, she doesn't know why but she felt like she was drawn to it.

"Dear, I'm dying with curiosity here. Just once. Let's see what kind of weapons they sell. Who knows, what kind of fortuitous encounter we will have."

Since she was adamant about entering the store, the young nobleman thought of fulfilling her small wish. After all, it isn't a big deal.

Both of them stepped down from the carriage and walked into the store.

As soon as he stepped inside, they saw a handsome-looking young man was standing nearby the table like a puppet without any expression while an equally attractive young man was lying his head on the counter.

"Big brother, there's a customer." The Android woke up his boss.

Mark raised his head and looked at the couple.

The guy was a tall and slim young man, not particularly attractive, wearing a colorful long robe, carrying a paper fan.

On the other hand, the girl was very beautiful to the extent that even the veil that was covering the part of her face couldn't hide it.

However, neither of them grabbed his attention.

What grabbed his attention was their clothing which appeared high-end.

Even though there are no brands in this world to determine their value, he could still see the details of their fabric with the passive inspection skill.

Silk was even more expensive in this world, which made him think that this couple might be rich.

"Welcome to Genesis. May I know what are you looking for?" Mark was quick to stand up on his feet and a bright smile appeared on his face.

The young nobleman walked around and inspected the weapons on the display.

His expression changed right away as soon as he closely looked at the first one. "Trash."

"Trash" "Trash" "Trash"…

The more he observed those weapons, the more he felt disgusted.

Mark, on the other hand, was calm on the surface as even he didn't think highly of them. He wanted to dismantle them the moment he acquired the skill.

"My previous statement was right. This shop is nothing but trash. Let's leave." Without talking to neither Mark nor the Android, he directly criticized the shop while talking to his fiancée.

It irked Mark a bit. But, he took a deep breath and stayed calm.

"Um, excuse me." Instead of responding to her fiancée, the young lady turned towards the counter and looked at Mark. "Do you have any other weapons other than these?"

"Yes." Mark nodded in response while continuing to maintain his usual fake bright smile. "There's a special weapon that was only sold this shop in this whole Empire. Would you like to see it?"

He then proceeded to take out a box from one of the drawers.

"Special weapon?" While the young lady seemed to be interested in that box, her fiancée didn't think much of it. Still, he walked towards the counter to see what kind of unique weapon is that it can't be sold anywhere else.

As Mark opened the box, he revealed a silver-colored pistol with a wooden handle. A few 9mm bullets are lying beside it.

Both of them were instantly taken aback. Indeed, it was unique. They have never seen this kind of weapon.

The lady suddenly remembered something and said, "this looks a bit similar to the drawing on the signboard."
