Yuki stood there wondering what she should do. She did not know if she should go to another window or not. She decided to wait a few minutes before actually doing just that, but luckily after just two minutes, the young man came back down with an old man wearing grey robes following behind him. The old man quickly walked over to the window and stared straight at Yuki. His eyes seemed to be feverish, and this alone was giving Yuki a creepy feeling. After almost two minutes of them staring at each other, the old man finally opened his mouth and asked: "What the hell are you waiting for? Show it to me!"

Yuki quickly covered her chest even though she was currently playing a male character. You could say this action was a force of habit. But as she did this, she was also backing away from the window in a hurried manner. "President, if you word it like that, people will misunderstand you."

The young man cut in, seeing what was happening. This old man was none other than the president of the trade skill guild. He was almost eighty years old but still looked around fifty. When he heard the young man chiding him, he realized his actions and words were easily misinterpreted. "Ahem!" The President cleared his throat, walked to the door at the side, and opened it to exit the room. "Young man, if you would come this way. I would like to speak to you about the Eye of Destiny in your possession."

Yuki looked at the old man worriedly. She wondered if this game had NPCs that took advantage of young handsome men. After meeting the perverted NPC, Mi, when she first started this game, she wasn't sure if these NPCs were all coded to be perverts or not. Seeing how Yuki was not moving, the president was starting to get antsy and was about to say something when the young man from before came over and bowed to Yuki. "I apologize for our President's behavior. You see, he has been looking for this item for many years. Please come this way. He only wishes to make a deal with you. "

Yuki finally nodded and followed the young man. The president noted the young man's help and decided he would give him a fat bonus later. The three of them went to the third floor to a meeting room that had two soft and comfy looking couches facing each other with tables in between. "Please have a seat. I will go make some tea." The young man said as he motioned with his arms to Yuki.

Yuki nodded and took a seat. The President calmly sat across from her and bowed his head. "Excuse my earlier behavior. I do apologize if I have offended you. My name is Chen Fan, and I am the President of this branch of the Trade Skill Guild in Flim."

"It is nice to meet you, my name is Ryu, and it is fine. I was only startled by your words. Now about the Eye of Destiny." Yuki got right to business since she had no time to waste as she took out the orb from her inventory and placed it on the table.

Seeing the glass like crystal orb sitting there, his eyes went wide with excitement as he yelled out: "Yes, this is it! I have been searching for this thing for so long! Where did you find it!?"

"Umm, a woman at a stand on the streets gave it to me." Yuki replied. She did not say Fran's name or which stall it was to help keep Fran from being bothered. Even though Fran said nothing to Yuki about not telling anyone that she got the orb from her, Yuki still did not want to anger such a nice lady or put her in a bad spot.

"I see, so someone else had it. I will not ask who. Anyway, I tell you what, I will promise you one favor, and in return, you give me the Eye of Destiny.." The President said with a smile on his face.

Yuki almost agreed immediately but stopped herself as she thought for a moment. When she finished thinking, to President Chen's surprise and horror, Yuki reached out and took the Eye of Destiny back. Yuki did this for a reason. She remembered reading that the NPCs in game were no different from those in the real world. Since that was the case, why not try to bargain for a better reward?

"You! You! You!" President Chen was at a loss of words and could only spit out the word 'you' and point at Yuki.

Seeing this. Yuki knew she had the upper hand by a lot which meant as long as she did not go overboard, she would not be denied. There were two things Yuki needed right now. Money and free access to a potion room for a while. She figured if she asked for a few silver and a potion room to use as she wishes for a while, she would not be asking for much.

"I think a favor is fine and all, but since you have been looking for this object for so long, maybe a monetary reward added on would be nice as well." Yuki said as she raised her eyebrow, looking at President Chen. A small smile crept up on her lips that said: do you really want to reject me?

"This..." President Chen wavered for a moment. He was not one who would normally bargain for anything. But here he was being held hostage by this young man a quarter of his age.

"Hmmm? Then I wonder how much this would get me if I sold it on the market palace." Yuki fiddled with the orb in her hand, looking it over with great interest.

"Wait!" President Chen yelled out. Yuki's lips curled up into a broad smile as she looked at him.

President Chen let out a long sigh… He never felt so defeated in his life. "You win! I will give you ten silver plus a favor. What do you say? Is that not a good deal!?"

"Very much so!" Yuki said happily.

[System Notification: The reward for unique quest: The Eye of Destiny has been updated. The new reward has been upgraded to 10 silver and a favor from the President himself.]

[Granted Title: Strikes a hard bargain! Equipped effect 5% discount from vendors. ]

Yuki was surprised to see that she gained a title and smiled, making sure to set herself a mental reminder to equip it later. "That seems fair enough. As for my favor, I would like to use it right away. I wish to have access to a potion room."

"Hmm? That is it? Haha! Simple indeed!" President Chen was a bit surprised by Yuki's simple request. As such, he was beaming with smiles. "Such a simple matter. Here… This will give you a free access pass to any of the mid quality trade skill rooms. They are always empty anyway. You can use them as much as you want for no time limit, and here is the ten silver as well... Now for the Eye of Destiny."

President Chen licked his lips as he looked at Yuki, sending chills down her spine again. She took out the orb and placed it on the table before sticking both the pass and the silver into her inventory.
