Isaac entered a Merchant Store.
He has visited it many times in Swornword, but this was his first time in Stronglord.
[Laurent - Stingy Merchant]
A brown-haired man was sitting on the other side of the room, while a large table was in front of him.
The Merchant Store had only 1 floor, with few rooms, but all the business is done in this room.
Isaac looked around the room, and it was completely empty.
Laurent opened his eyes and looked at the beautiful individual.
'She looks like someone who is easy to fool.' Laurent thought sneakily.
He pointed at the chair on the other side of the table, ''Take a seat.''
Isaac nodded and sat down on the chair.
''Well, Miss. Buy or sell?'' Laurent asked while trying to make a handsome smile, but that only creeped Isaac out.
''I am male,'' Isaac replied.
*Cough* *Cough*
Laurent almost choked on his saliva, ''I-I see.''
Isaac put many different items on the desk.
4 daggers, 3 Wild Wolf Fangs, and 2 Leather Armors.
One of the leather armors was his own— he decided to sell it away.
''Hmm.'' Laurent looked at the daggers.
''These ones are in bad condition— the owner of these daggers obviously haven't sharpened them before,'' Laurent said.
He obviously lied.
He knows that only people who bring weapons to be sold are the ones who have killed others to get these weapons.
Isaac's brows furrowed.
Laurent then looked at the Fangs, ''These are not in good condition either— they have taken damage.''
Isaac crossed his arms.
''And these Leather Armors are even worse— fixing them will cost a lot of money.'' Laurent sighed and rubbed his forehead, ''I can give... 200 White Coins for all of these.''
He turned his head towards Isaac and had an innocent smile on his face.
Isaac took the items and put them back on the Inventory.
He stood up and started walking away.
''H-Hey, where are you going?!'' Laurent angrily shouted, ''No one else will give a better prize!''
A bunch of messages popped up in front of Isaac.
[Relationship with Merchant Laurent has dropped down to 0!]
[If you leave the building, it will become negative, and you will be banned from every Merchant store in Stronglord!]
Isaac turned his head towards Laurent, who was slyly smiling.
Isaac opened the door and left.
''YOU BASTARD!'' He heard an enraged shout, but he ignored it.
[You have been banned from every Merchant Store in Stronglord!]
Isaac sighed and started strolling in the streets.
He is confident that he can earn 10 times the amount Laurent offered.
'Do I have to go back to the Swornword to sell the items?' Isaac looked conflicted, but it seemed that he had no other choice left.
It is of course bad, because it is a long journey, and he should focus on grinding XP.
But then, Isaac entered the City Square and saw hundreds of NPC's and players alike trading items!
Isaac had a brilliant idea. His eyes sparkled, and he walked towards the City Square.
He sat down on the corner of the City Square and took items from his Inventory.
He took out 4 daggers, 3 Wild Wolf Fangs, and the Leather Armors.
His items weren't anything special, and others had much better.
But he had a plan!
Isaac looked at the ground and saw it was quite dirty. He moved his hand around the ground, and now his soft hand was dirtied.
He put his hands on his hair and started moving his hands around his soft hair.
Soon his white hair was half brown and half white.
He looked like a beggar, but he didn't touch his beautiful face because he needs it!
Now, Isaac looked like a beautiful beggar who needs money for living expenses or money to pay for his elderly grandmom's medical bills.
His look earned a lot of pity looks.
Especially from the female population, who had to drag their husbands towards him.
''Hello sweety, I will buy them all.'' A beautiful brunette said and gave Isaac 2000 White Coins.
Isaac put them close to his chest and bowed deeply.
He didn't talk because he wanted everyone to think that he was a girl.
The beautiful woman gently smiled and took the items from the ground.
Isaac looked at her nametag.
[Sophia - Noblewoman]
He remembers her name. If fate allows, he will help in every way he can.
It is to pay back his shameless behavior.
Sophia, the gentle woman, wasn't aware that she got one of the future Mythical Heroes as her guardian.
Isaac put the White Coins back to his inventory and instantly left the City Square.
Not aware that few people with lustful and greed-filled eyes saw him leave.
Isaac kept walking in the streets while three figures followed behind him.
Soon, he entered more shady parts of the City.
It was the slum area.
The three figures thought that it was obvious that the girl was living here.
They got more excited because Guards don't care what happens here.
Soon, Isaac entered a shabby building with a lot of cracks on the walls, and it looked like it can fall apart by simple push.
The three figures followed behind.
The first figure opened the door and sneakily entered.
But then...
*Clank*
A barrel of the pistol was touching his forehead.
The first figure paled, but then Isaac pressed the trigger.
*Bang*
[-200 HP!]
The first figure dropped dead.
The two other figures were shocked— they quickly turned around and ran away.
Isaac was shocked after seeing the damage.
He grinned and took his other Flintlock Pistol.
*BANG*
The second figure only managed to run past the front door before Isaac's Flintlock bullet back of his head.
Only one figure remained.
The third figure was running on the streets.
The other residents of the slum only watched as the man ran in horror.
Then they saw a beautiful individual running after him.
The beautiful individual was so much faster, and soon Isaac overtook him.
The figure gritted his teeth and punched!
Isaac used his agility stats and dodged.
The figure didn't give up— instead, he kept punching sloppily.
But Isaac easily dodged every single punch,
Soon... It has been 18 seconds since the first figure died.
Isaac reloaded the Flintlock Pistol and pointed it towards the figure.
The figure went pale— he knew... Death was about to embrace him.
*BANG*
A sizeable hole appeared on his forehead, and he instantly died.
Isaac put the Flintlock Pistol on his inventory, and he quickly ran off— He thoughtthat noise must have attracted Guards.
But he didn't know that it was a usual sight in slums— the Guards don't care what happens here.
Isaac left the slum area and started walking towards his next destination, which was City Hall!
He can buy a house from there or rent a room.
