Shopping madness (3)

Raglan naturally realized that he was not in front of an ordinary person, so he had to be careful to leave a good impression on this young man 

 In this case, this young man will request his services if he comes to this store again

 "Good..." Alexander took the bags and started moving towards the exit 

 But he stopped a few steps before walking out the door

 Alexander turned his eyes to a red herb that was on a glass display 

 In the end, Alexander took a step back and did not come out, instead turning back to Raglan 

 "Do you have a basket that I can use to put my purchases?"

 ".." Basket?

 --------------------------

 "Young Master Desmond, I am sure this herb will be perfect." A saleswoman pointed to a herb with glowing green leaves 

 The sales representative had an ordinary, undistinguished face, but her sexy body was able to arouse the imagination of young men 

 Desmond was a young man with shoulder-length blond hair, indifferent brown eyes, and clothes that made it obvious to anyone how wealthy the wearer was.

 "It's still not that impressive..." Desmond glanced at the herb and his interest in it quickly disappeared

 Mia's body trembled when she heard these words

 She knew that she had failed again to satisfy her client

 Desmond wanted to buy a gift for a girl he knew

 He stressed the need for it to be a precious and rare gift, explaining the importance of this matter

 Mia tried to do her best and offered him the best herbs they sold 

 But Desmond still seemed unconvinced by what was offered to him

 This made Mia feel a little disappointed by this, but she did not dare show any sign of it

 Firstly because of her fear of Desmond, who has a high-ranking noble family behind him, and secondly because of that fierce, muscular bodyguard standing behind Desmond with looks that could eat her alive.

 "It seems I won't find what I'm looking for here..." Desmond shook his head regretfully

 "You can try the Micallef group." The muscle man suggested in good faith

 "I think you're right, Glen…" Desmond shook his head as he thought about this, but quickly showed annoyance, "But their goods are very expensive."

 "But these goods are worth every penny." Glen shrugged, leaving the choice to his young master

 Suddenly, Glen felt a sharp aura coming from behind him

 Glen did not look towards this powerful aura directly and instead ignored it for a while

 After he felt that an appropriate time had passed, he gathered all his courage to turn his head back a little 

 There stood a man and a woman dressed in the clothes of noble society

 This couple exuded an aura that said 'don't come near us'

 This is what made all salespeople stay away from them 

 The couple was looking at a randomly displayed collection of herbs

"Careful…" Desmond stuck his eyes to the herb in his hands and issued a warning to Glen, "These are people we can't offend, don't look at them too much."

 Desmond was naturally aware of the presence of these experts here

 These people could suppress their aura if they wanted to

 But they deliberately gave off this aura to keep others away from them

 That's why it wasn't in Desmond's interest to intrude on them

 Glen responded to Desmond's orders and took his eyes off these experts

 But suddenly the aura that was prevailing in the place disappeared without warning

 Desmond and Glen are surprised by this unexpected change 

 These experts were still here but they had suppressed their aura for some reason

 While Glen and Desmond were thinking about what was happening, two people approached them 

 One of them was a young man who walked with his hands behind his back, had fiery red hair, and wore a Varvatos Academy uniform. 

 Behind him was a salesman carrying a basket so full of herbs that some of them threatened to fall to the ground

 "Hmm..." Alexander picked up a box containing small, berry-like fruits that were a dark purple color with a gentle glow that made them look like jewels. 

 "Young Master, this is…" Raglan tried to explain what this fruit was and what its effect was 

 But Alexander threw the box of fruit into the basket that Raglan was carrying, not interested in hearing the story that Raglan intended to tell.

 Raglan did not care about this behavior at all 

 Instead, he maintained his polite smile, which implied joy that could not be described in words. 

 It all started when this customer asked for a basket to put his goods in

 Raglan didn't understand why this customer needed a basket 

 All he has to do is point and Raglan will pack any product he wants into a convenient bag

 However, Raglan did not object to the customer's request

 The customer was always right

 From this standpoint, Raglan fulfilled the customer's wishes and brought a medium-sized basket and waited with curiosity to see what this young man wanted to do with this basket.

 Then the epic events began

Alexander began to walk around the store and put herbs worth thousands in coins into the basket

 Raglan, who was carrying the basket, was following Alexander, unable to see where the limits of this customer were 

 Raglan used his mind to do a simple calculation and found that this customer had purchased herbs worth thirty-three coins.

 Even after all this, Alexander still puts everything he can get his hands on in the basket

 "..." Does he think he is in a vegetable market?

 Everyone stared at Alexander who was putting the precious herbs in a basket as if he was picking up some random items

 " Who is this...?" Glen whispered when he saw this unprecedented extravagance

 "This is the first time I've seen this boy." Desmond furrowed his eyebrows

 He knew all the young men from the noble families in Varyag City, and he was sure that this young man was not one of them 

 While Desmond was thinking about the identity of this young man, Alexander suddenly began to approach him

 Desmond's nerves tensed and his mind shifted from thinking about the young man's identity to why he was heading here

 Alexander stood directly in front of Desmond 

 Everyone's nerves were at their peak as they waited for Alexander to speak

 Although Desmond maintained an outward calm, he was sweating due to the uncomfortable atmosphere

 Alexander pointed to Desmond, "Are you going to buy that herb?"

 Desmond looked at the herb on the table behind him

 It turns out that Alexander was after the herb, not Desmond

 "No..." Desmond moved away to make way for Alexander, "This was not the herb I was after..."

 These words were directly saying 'Take it, it's all yours.'

 Alexander did not hesitate. He picked up the herb and threw it into the basket. Then he turned to Raglan, "Ok I'm done with this, how much do I have to pay now?"

 "Wait a minute, please." Raglan placed the basket on a nearby table and began to calculate the price of the purchases as quickly as he could

 After two minutes, Raglan turned to Alexander, trying to contain his excitement. "It is thirty-eight thousand coins."

 Everyone trembled when they heard this amount

 Even Desmond was shocked by this amount. Even though he was the heir to one of the families that controlled the city, he was unable to pay this amount all at once.

 Desmond watched how this young man took out a gold card and paid more than thirty thousand coins as if he was buying some things from the supermarket. 

 "I will pack the purchases." Raglan picked up the basket and set off to prepare everything properly

"Let's go..." Desmond moved because he felt that staying would be of no use after he did not find what he was looking for here

 Glen followed him silently

 The two of them left the giant building and headed to a limousine that was parked in front of the entrance to the skyscraper 

 There was a regular taxi parked right behind the limousine while the taxi driver was leaning against the car with a bored expression and seemed to be waiting for someone.

 Glen's eyes met the taxi driver's eyes for a second, but this second was enough to make Glen feel as if there was a blade on his neck, making him hold his breath for a moment due to this deadly aura.

 Glen and Desmond got into the limousine and set off on their way

 " What is the problem?." Desmond noticed that Glen's body was shaking like someone who had been thrown naked into an icy pond

 Glen tried to calm his shaking body and then told Desmond the situation he had been through

 Desmond frowned as he listened to this

 He did not feel any strong aura when they exited the building, indicating that the taxi driver was deliberately suppressing it 

 But it seems that Glen, who spent most of his life as a warrior hunting monsters in the vast forests, was able to recognize the superiority of this warrior

 "Are you sure he was a taxi driver?" Desmond did not understand why a warrior of this caliber was working in such a low-level profession as a taxi driver

 If he was truly that powerful, different families would fight to employ him

 "How long has this city been alive like this?" Desmond was confused by today's events

 First there were those scary experts who were walking around, then this young man who was picking up the precious herbs as if they were some vegetables.

 And now an eccentric expert has appeared who works as a taxi driver

 I have to walk around carefully these days or I'll get into trouble... Desmond made a mental note to remind himself
