Magic Shop System

Don't be in such a hurry," Kadyn replied when he spotted an eager look on Cecelia's face, then continued. "To remove your rune you need five-hundred energy points."

 "..."

 Hot Rod, Barret and Cecelia looked at one another in dismay. They thought that Kadyn would help them just this time, but his reply told them otherwise. 

"I told you," he said, "there is no free lunch in this world, you have to earn the things you desire. Furthermore," he peered at the trio and went on, "don't be in such a hurry to remove your runes. You need to remember after you become an elementary mage, it would be a lot harder to earn energy points. So make sure you have lots of them before doing it."

 "Uh," at this moment Nefia asked. "I want to ask about the Hall of Intelligence — what do we need to work on, information gathering?"

 "Well, you can say that," Kadyn nodded, "But you will also receive other missions as well. Alright, let's go. It's time to open the shop."

— —

 A new building had appeared beside the tall and majestic tower. It was a restaurant that Kadyn was talking about, and while he was talking about it with others, he gave a command to the system to build it.

 "But we don't have ingredients to cook," Rayna said. "We need a lot of meat, spices, vegetables, and many other things." 

Kadyn turned towards Khrom and Slyff and said. "You two would go and help in shopping Sister Rayna."

 Khrom was stunned for a moment, he wanted to speak something but then he shook his head as if remembering something and remained silent. "It's settled then," Kadyn said.

 "Will we receive energy points for this as well?" Slyff asked as he rubbed his hands eagerly.

 "Oh, you need energy points for it?" Kadyn curled his lips. "Well, it's fine by me, but you need to pay for what you ate until now cooked by sister Rayna as well."

 "Alright, alright," Slyff's mouth twitched. "I will do it."

 "That's good," Kadyn said. "Furthermore, to gather the information you have to go out anyway, so you can do that as well. Every piece of information would be priced by the system, similar to the artefacts and potions."

 "Excuse me," at this moment a voice came from behind them. Kadyn turned towards the newcomer and found a beautiful girl standing there. "Hey, the manager has sent me to deliver the money."

 "Oh, thanks, Hayla," Kadyn nodded.

 Hayla looked at him and examined the towering building in front of her with a shocked expression. She never thought that she would see such a grand sight in just a single day after leaving this place. Four Great Noble Houses and even the Royal Family won't have so many brick builders to build such a grand building in just a night. 

'How did he do it?' curiosity began to appear in her heart. "What kind of shop is it?" she asked.

"Oh, it's potion and artefact shop," he replied. "We have also opened a restaurant, but we are still planning a few things about it. There might be other things available in the future as we progress."

"Nice," Hayla exclaimed. Then said, "Hey, I was injured not too long ago, do you have any potion for it?"

"Of course," Kadyn said and then turned towards Elora. "Take Miss Hayla to the Hall of Potions."

Elora nodded and walked away together with Hayla. After Kadyn made changes he decided all the goods would be stored in their respective halls. At the counter, he would just receive money. It would make the shop look grand and would make things convenient.

He looked at Dion and said, ``You stand here and receive customers." Learning from Slyff's example, Dion didn't ask for energy points. He had already forged artefacts, if anyone were to buy them, he would receive his energy points anyways.

Afterwards, Kadyn went towards the counter and sat down as he waited for customers. His shop was new so people were curious. Though there would be some scepticism inside their heads, regarding his products in the start, he believed he could win people's hearts through the quality of his goods.

As he was lost in thoughts a sound of footsteps sounded. He lifted his head and found four youngsters walking towards him. Two were boys and two were girls. One of the girls nodded towards Kadyn and said. "We want to buy Rank 1 artefacts."

"Take them to the Hall of Artifacts," Kadyn said to Dion who was leading the way for the group. The boy nodded and went upstairs with the customers.

About fifteen minutes later Hayla walked down with Elora, carrying a basket. Inside there were around ten potions — healing, strength increasing, speed increasing and many more. They didn't have a Rank 1 potioneer yet, so the shop had only elementary rank potions.

After Kadyn did a little math, he realized the potions' cost was around 60,000 Ces, and it was according to the shop. He looked a little troubled. There was no way Hayla could pay that much money, she was just a servant in the worst chamber of commerce of the capital.

"It's 60,000 Ces." Kadyn gritted his teeth and blurted out, he could not lower the price anymore as the shop had fixed it, no bargaining was available.

"60,000 Ces?" Hayla blinked in surprise. However, the reaction Kadyn was expecting didn't appear. On the contrary, Hayla looked pleasantly surprised. "Why is it so cheap?"

Kadyn's lips twitched. 'Sister, you are just a servant, shouldn't 60,000 Ces be a huge amount for you?' But his thoughts were limited to himself. He smiled and said. "It is our first day, so we are giving fifty per cent discount."

"Even if you double the price it's still cheap."

"Oh, then you should let others know about it as well, cheap and high-quality goods is our motto," Kadyn said through his teeth. 'Am I too poor, or did I underestimate the salary of a servant?'
