The Game Rune System

Chapter 39: Deal

Tetsuya never would lose himself to the lady's charm. He stood calm to Mari's approach while waiting for her to bring out that deal.

"You have just killed Yulia's young master, so his loot is all yours. I would like to make a deal with you about this very loot." Mari's expression turned serious, "The earth rune is what you were after, so I don't think you would like to sell it back. But what about Yulia Loyalty rune and this romantic rune? I am also ready to buy anything valuable from this young master's treasure ring including the ring itself."

"So that is this deal?" Tetsuya faintly smiled, his expression not wavering at all. In front of the beauty and all those offers, Tetsuya just kept his image and cloak of mysteriousness never revealed his feelings.

Mari obviously was not done yet, "Of course, I am not done yet. Our deal would be you selling all runes and treasures to our auction house and we of course offering you the best deals on the market."

It was a good deal solely from the relationship perspective.

Tetsuya would get some connections to the auction house and be one of the early clients who would be able to see the auction's goods before the auction itself. It was no secret that high status people were prepared to buy some stuff before the auction already.

Such connection would allow Tetsuya to get items for his MOBA game and this alone made this deal alluring.

But Tetsuya first needed to confirm Mari's 'best deals', "So how much would you offer me for this ring?" This ring was acquired after killing the young master. It could store a lot of items and it was not a mere treasure.

A naked eye was enough to see through it and more cautious people would probe with their high senses to see through this item's capacity.

Mari did exactly that, then spoke, "One thousand gold coins. It's a pretty good storage item, but far from the highest quality ones." The lady also tested Tetsuya's knowledge just now. Of course, she gave the best offer one could give from any auction house, but Mari also had thought of actually trying to offer a lower price from the standard one.

Tetsuya had Ashley whose knowledge was rich, her bookworm past useful right now! "I take that." Tetsuya agreed with Mari, then rummaged through the whole ring to get out more items that could be sold.

He also threw the young master's equipment at Mari, "W-wait a second, please." It was no present at all and Mari knew that she had to give the proper offers, but it would take a while to properly check all this stuff's durability and value.

Her guards also leaned down to help the lady and so Tetsuya became alone with the runes all within himself, "I won't sell you this Romantic rune or loyalty one. The earth one is also going to stay with me, but all this stuff will be yours if you give me an appropriate offer."

"Yes! I can understand this much, you know?!" Mari let out a little too loud shout, her hands overwhelmed by the items gathered in a small mound. She also took out notebook out of nowhere and began to properly count the money.

This day, Tetsuya became one of the close clients to the noble family behind the auction and also got a lot of money for his own equipment. He bought armor not only for himself, but also two new party members, Karola and Yurek, then for Reyas and former bandit people.

Then, it was time to return to his Redemption Village.

-

Redemption Village.

Reyas was back to this village whose development exceeded her imagination. All saved slaves decided to contribute to its development and worked really hard for the person that saved them.

This village was like a proper city already as slaves also could learn how to build proper stone walls and stuff. It was like they had subclass for this kind of job and no one ever minded such knowledge.

She also properly dealt with all the matters and all real villagers in the vicinity were hooked by Redemption Village's services.

"Reyas! How did your recent trip go?" One of the former bandit leaders spoke with a big smile. If one took a proper look at him, then one would be able to see those scars and his experience that would lead to his former 'job'.

However, this former bandit was laughing so much that he looked like an angel. He was actually an angel in the eyes of many villagers that got saved by him.

"It's Miss Reyas for you." Reyas sucked on her pipe, then blew the smoke with annoyed eyes, "It went smoothly, but the noble already sent his envoy here. If we want to keep this village, we must pay enough contribution with interest." She was annoyed because Reyas couldn't decide on such matters at all.

Tetsuya was nowhere to be seen, but his Redemption Village was both profitable and dangerous! If not proper steps were to be taken, then calamity from stronger opponents might befall on them soon!

Reyas didn't want to go through another 'life calamity' yet again and this fast.

However, the game master was already back home as all villagers raised their hands at his return! They waved at him while loudly shouting his name, so Reyas instantly got informed of his return.

She stood up in a flash, then headed outside to give the report.
