Chapter 1: Jack Omnee and the Generic Young Master

Ruspeia City

A bustling city filled with people going in and out, their noises that filled the street making it lively and a little bit crowded. There two main roads which both led to different parts of the city, the buildings were neatly arranged forming multiple alleyways in between them.

If you follow a certain alleyway, it would then lead to a small shop hidden at the end of it. In front of this so called shop, was a small garden of strange looking flowers.

The shop itself was not that large, only amounting to a few square meters. The design of the said shop was very simple but was also neat. This makes it beautiful, giving justice to the phrase 'Beauty in Simplicity'.

Suddenly, a young man, with a somewhat lazy appearance walk out of the shop. He wears a worn out looking clothes which would make one feel that a single pull will tear it apart. But if one was to look closer, the clothes does not appear to be something simple.

Holding on a water sprinkle, he head towards the small garden and started to water the flowers. There was a satisfied smile on his face with a hint of contentment.

After he was finished watering the flowers, Jack looked at them for a bit making sure that they were growing healthily. He then walk back to his shop, putting a sign board on the door which says [Open].

Jack Omnee, a twenty-seven year old young man, has a somewhat complex past which lead him to living a simple life as a shop owner of a small shop.

Even though a a few months had already passed and there were still no customers that came to his shop, Jack was not bothered with it.

Since he was selling as a hobby, not for money. But of course, he wouldn't mind a little bit of extra profit. No one would decline money, not anyone in their right minds.

His shop sells the things that he had made himself, and although they are just some common things he made, their quality would even make the high tier products to blush in shame, even though they can't. (Since they're only an object.)

Once he returned back into his shop, he looked at the shelves where several things were placed. Products like potions and pills were placed in an organized passion. From temporary enhancing to healing potions, energy gathering to bottleneck breaking pills.

While the weapons and armors were hanged on the wall, varying in sizes and shapes. From a strange looking sword to a humungous shield, leather to heavy armors. His shop has the greatest quality of the said products but can also said to be the most expensive there is.

The prices he had written on the shelves were so high, that the word sky high price will not be enough to describe it. Luckily, he had yet to gain a customer.

IOI

It was noon and Jack was just about to go get some lunch when the door to his shop opened. It was also soon followed by the complaint of a young white man.

"Bah! Why is it that there is a cheap looking shop here? Don't they know that in front of this alleyway is the Rainbow Pavilion? Who in there right mind would build a shop at this place?" the white man complained. He was wearing a rather expensive looking robe which looked really majestic. It was because the color pair was red and gold, making the young man look like a king.

The young man turn to see that Jack was looking at him with an expressionless face. This ticked him off as this was the first time that he had ever faced such a situation. Since most of the time, they would be kneeling in front of hiim and fawning for his favor.

"Do you know me?" the young man asked. As this is the only explanation he could think of. Though he thinks of himself as someone who is extremely famous, he can't be naive to think that everyone in the city would know about him. Since there will always be those kind of people who will not care about the affairs outside.

And Jack in front of him seems to be that kind of person. Judging by his worn out clothes and the size of this shop. This could only mean that he is in dire need of money that he can't even afford to spend time out of his shop.

"No." Jack's answer was within his expectation. And as if it was a cue, he started his introduction.

"Well then, you should consider yourself lucky. Cause I, Sven Silverfold, the heir to the Silverfold family and a genius warrior at level 7 Novice rank, has visited your shop." after that, Sven then looked at Jack's expression. Seeing that he appeared to have been shocked silly and can't respond, he felt good and got carried away.

"I will be buying everything you have in this shop! Calculate the amount and prepare to send them to my manor!" Sven said confidently.

His status as the next heir to a major family like the Silverfold Family, his pocket money can be considered as the salary for the whole year of an average status family.

Since the shop, from his perspective was very small and was cheaply built, the products sold in this shop will mostly likely, also not be that pricey. And of course, he had already expected that it would not be of good quality, he only aim to satisfy his vanity and possibly give the items to his servants, that should make them more loyal to him.

Jack looked at Sven, looking at his smug expression which says 'Hurry up and be amazed!', could only remind him.

"Are you sure about that? You still haven't seen the prices. I think it would be better to take a lot at them first." Jack said.

Sven felt a little bit humiliated when Jack told him to check the prices.

Unforgivable!

He, a proud young master and a bona fide speedthrift, would never check the price of the things he would buy.

"Just tell me how much it all cost! I'll double the price!" Sven said angrily.

Jack shrugged his shoulders not caring about Sven anymore. Since the customer himself had already said it, who was he to interfere?

So he quickly calculated the cost of everything that is currently displayed in his shop. After a few seconds, he had come up with the total price and said it to Sven.

"The total price would be 417 750.." Jack was not able to finish his sentence, when Sven immediately interrupted him.

"HAHAHA! You want me to check the prices just because of that measly amount? 417 750 gold coins? I'll pay you a million gold coins, you can keep the change, just make sure you can se-" Sven was then interrupted by Jack.

He looked at Jack in a questioning manner. Although he appear to be not bothered by the price, he was actually suffering in his heart. A million gold coins was equivalent to a thousand energy crystals. That was his whole savings for this year!

"I think you must have been mistaken. It is not in gold coins." Jack said to Sven. This cause a smile to form on Sven's face and look of realization also appeared.

'So that's how it is! I was over exited, so it is only in silver coins. That is surprisingly cheap. I guess it can't be blame.' Sven thought.

"Okay then, I give you a 10 000 gold coins. Just mak-" this time, Jack did not even let him continue what he was about to say and directly told him the real price.

"It is 417 750 energy crytals, you can just give me 835 000 energy crystals." Jack smile as he held out his right hand.

"I said that you don't have to worry. I'll give you-.. WAIT! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!?" Sven smiled as he was about to give his payment when he realized what Jack said.

"I said you can just pay me 835 000 energy crystals." Jack answered.

"ARE YOU FUCKING OUT OF YOUR MIND?! DON'T TAKE ME FOR A FOOL! THAT IS JUST DAYLIGHT ROBBERY! WHO THE FUCK WOULD EVEN PAY SUCH AMOUNT?!" Sven burst out of anger as he look at Jack. If his looks could kill, then Jack would have surely died a thousand times.

"That is why I told you to check the prices. You were just too stubborn to listen." Jack said. He could not really understand why would someone even act all arrogant if they can't play the part.

Hearing what Jack said and remembering that he had also reminded him earlier. Sven swallowed his pride for a second and went to check the price of the pill near him. When he saw it, he almost faint due to shock.

This was no Energy Gathering Pill, this should be a Gold Gathering Pill.

The price was written clearly that his eyes almost came out of their eye sockets.

[Energy Gathering Pill

Price: 500 energy crystals]

"FUCK!" Sven cursed.
