11. My little Stall
11. My little Stall
In order to level up one had to show income proof and stuff, but no one forced you to level up if you didn't want to.
There was a huge hole in their system but well who am I to suggest such a thing. Me being a child was already giving me a cold treatment by people's glaring eyes, saying what the fuck is this pipsqueak doing here. Well it's not like I will meet their judging ass everyday anyway.
Before going back to the first street I also registered myself as an adventure. It was pretty easy actually, i just paid, touched the magic ball thingy and my name was printed on the metal ID. A teenage girl was explaining simple rules in a group, the receptionist just pointing me towards it.
Adventuring was basic, responsibilities will be all mine blah blah blah, Levels from F to S, can't choose quest more than one level higher than yours, you can sell monster parts at the guild, and if you die we are not responsible, good luck. No one even bat an eye on the fact that I was a child. But there were some teenagers and children among the people talking and sitting in the hall too, so I guess it's common for them.
I asked the receptionist lady if my ID will expire if I don't do constant quests and she said I had to do at least one a month in the F level. Then I could double the time with each level before the ID was seriously terminated from the guilds around the nations.
Pretty simple I guess and the fact that she said this while using a toothpick to clear her teeth was also a good indication as to show how welcomed I was there.
I left the guild area and started walking towards the first street. I also checked what kind of quests they had and as I expected they were all basic adventures rpg game type stuff. Exterminate goblins, gather medicinal plants, some were for escorting mission and some asking to check some place or find rare herbs and stuff. Nothing noteworthy.
I used Hikaru as my merchant name but for adventuring I wanted it to be more like a side hobby kinda thing. So I wrote my name as Kuro kami. Calling myself Black god was certainly beyond narcissistic, but what can I say my adventure spirit was raging on.
When I reached the first Street, people were walking and talking, it certainly had that market vibe. I looked around some more and then found a nice place in the middle of two stalls, there was a nice little space with shade and it was perfect for what I was planning.
I planned to sell matchbox and lighters. I could go horribly wrong and people could get seriously suspicious of me if I do this in a wrong way. That's why I had bought the most basic of basic cheat lighters I could find on the internet and had bought some 300 of them in bulk. Plus 1000 matchboxes. I obviously ordered matchboxes without any print, still it was a quality paper but well I will just have to risk it and sell it accordingly to it's value.
I took out a nice chair to sit on and a simple table to put my 50 lighters and 200 matchboxes. Everyone was certainly giving me an eye but I had seen people using chairs at their stalls so it should be fine.
My right side had some nice looking crowd on their stall, they were selling some kind of jewellery and stuff. My left side was an old grandpa selling various oils and herbs in jars.
After some time two guys and a girl came walking and saw me chilling on my chair, drinking water from my bottle. They couldn't figure out what it was tht I was selling on the table and curiously came to find out.
Guy 1 - Hey kid ! What's this ? Is your father not here ?

Hikaru - I run this stall mister. And this is a product that can save your valuable time.
Guy 2 - Oh ! How's that ?
Hikaru - What do you usually do to get a fire ?
Girl - Use pyre stones ?
Hikari - How much time and effort it takes to light up a fire with that ?
Girl - Usually 20 to 30 minutes if a guy is good then 15 at best.
Hikaru - This box contains sticks that you can light in an instance !
Guy 1 - That's not possible ! Sticks that light up ? Won't they catch fire ?
I showed them by lighting up one stick and keeping it my hand until it burned out. Their faces were agape, but then the sharp looking controlled himself and looked at me suspiciously.
Guy 2 - How much for one stick ?
Hikaru - 3 silver for the box. It has maybe 40-50 sticks.
Girl - Just 3 silver !!!?
Hikaru - Yes I am a very honest man, i made them specially for our hardworking adventures and people who suffer in cold at night because they can't afford to buy pyre every few days.
My sell speech worked like a magic. And not just the three people in front of my stall, a lot of people around us were also drawn in by the exclamatory reactions of this guys.
3 silver was really not much, but I seriously wanted to sell this fast and go do other important stuff. Plus I planned to charge premium for the lighters, since they were my main product.
Many people came and went all buying at least one matchbox to try. Others also came to find out what was going on and ended up buying stuff.
In the middle of my selling, when it got a bit less crowded since I had sold almost half of what I had bought online. The couple from the jwellery shop came to me.
Man - Hey kid ! You have some fun stuff. How about I buy too ?
Hikaru - Of course. What you want?
Man - Give me 50 of those boxes and 10 of those lighting stuff.
Hikaru - No, only one lighter per person and five matchbox. Do you want it?
Man - Kid ! Do you even know who I am ? Get your dad let me talk to him !
Hikaru - i don't have a dad, man. And whoever you are I run this stall. And i say only one for you, do you want it or not?
He humphed and got back to his side. I knew he was a jerk from the start by his greedy face but I this place was really good and I really wanted to sell here. What can he do anyway.
When just a few stuff was left on the table after some 3-4 hours of me opening my stall, the wife of my greedy neighbour came to me. She was lanky, tall and skinny woman. Perfect fit for her fat husband.
Lady - Hey kid, give me those one lighter and 5 boxes.
Hikaru - No.
Lady - Wh.. what !? Why?
Hikaru - It's mine and I don't like your husband's fath face.
Her face turned so red I thought she would blow up, but she clenched her teeth and asked.
Lady - What do you want ?
Hikaru - I can give it to you, but I won't put it in your hands....
Lady - Then where would you put it ?
I leaned towards her and whispered ito her ears very sensualy,
" Inside your vagina......"
