Weapon seller in the world of magic

Loading the last bullet into the barrel, the young lady asked the servants to replace the vase, however, not at the same place but seven meters far.

She aimed at it. A look of determination can be seen on this 1-circle mage. Meanwhile, her father was watching her, more specifically, the pistol in her hands and the vase.

*Bang*

She pressed the trigger. The bullet cut through the air and struck at the center of the vase, destroying it.

”fuu…” Placing it vertically near her face, she blew the little smoke coming through the muzzle while keeping the other hand on her waist.

*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*

The maids clapped in excitement.

”Lady Song, you are amazing.” ”That pose is very cool, Lady Song. Please stay like that.”

One of the enthusiastic maids who always carry Song Yue’s instant camera with her took it out and scurried forward.

”Eh?” Song Yue was taken aback but growing up with her from childhood, she complied with her request and continued to stand there like that.

Handing the photograph to her, the maid commented, ”That weapon pistol perfectly suited for this pose. Here, take a look, Lady Song.”

Song Yue looked at herself and was surprised. ”Strange, I unknowingly did that. What if I wear a coat and a hat? Will I look cooler?” She couldn’t help but fantasize about taking more pictures with this unique weapon before she remembered something.

”Oh right! I’m out of bullets. I should visit that store again.” With her two maids, she left the mansion in the carriage while a guard followed from behind for her safety.

Meanwhile, at Genesis, Mark was just blankly staring into space, sighing from time to time.

It’s been 3 hours and yet, no customer had stepped inside.

Neither he knows how to promote business nor does he know how to pass off the idle time.

After all, in this world, there are no televisions, smartphones, laptops, or the internet. And with no ability to gather ether, he felt there’s no point to train to become stronger either.

As for spending time talking, this Android assistant of his only knows how to follow the commands and he couldn’t keep his fake personality with the neighbors every single day either.

So, Mark continued to create a 9-mm bullet every once in a while, slowly stocking up in his system inventory.

After all, all the customers that buy Single-shot pistols were sold, everyone will eventually return to his store for the bullets, at least until others started to make it.

He doesn’t care about such plagiarism as he will be selling more advanced weapons by the time other weapon shops started to copy his designs.

His goal is only to make his store popular like those big three weapon stores.

Meanwhile, the Android, who was just standing there like a puppet, disturbed his work, ”Big brother, customers…”

Mark immediately closed down the holographic screen and looked at them.

It was the same beautiful young lady from the previous days. Except that there were two more young ladies around the same age instead of that tall young man.

He could almost guess what she came for. So, he instantly stood up on his feet and greeted with a smile. ”Welcome to Genesis. May I know what you are looking for?”

Meanwhile, Song Yue was glancing at the shelves on the wall where there are pistols instead of usual weapons.

While Song Yue’s eyes fell on the pistols as soon as she stepped inside the shop, the maids look like they are love-struck.

*Kee…* ”The guys are so handsome.” The two of them are grinning among themselves while staring at Mark and Allen respectively.

Song Yue shook her head with a smile and let them stay on their own while she proceeded towards the counter. ”Hello, I’m here to see if your shop has any stock in bullets.”

Mark nodded, maintaining a bright smile as usual. ”Sure, how many do you need?”

”Give me 10. No, 20. Hmm, no, no… 50.” She raised five fingers.

Looking at the bulk order, Mark felt like his lucky days have arrived. ”Sure. Each bullet costs 20 silver coins. So, a total of 10 gold coins.”

”10 gold?” The two maids gasped in shock. Working as a maid in the Earl mansion only earns them 3 gold coins per week.

”And two of those pistols.” She pointed her finger to the shelves.

”Each pistol costs 5 gold coins. 2 pistols and 50 bullets. A total of 20 gold coins.” Mark’s heart was beating rapidly in excitement. Never in the world had he imagined that his business suddenly boomed in one night.

”20 gold coins?” The maids felt like they were about to even faint as it was like six weeks salary.

”Here,” Song Yue took out glistening twenty gold coins from her pouch and placed them on the counter.

”Allen, bring two Single-shot Pistols,” Mark ordered the Android while taking out three empty wooden boxes from the drawer. He slowly started to fill bullets in one of the boxes.

Meanwhile, the three young ladies were taken aback upon hearing the shop assistant’s name. All of them thought it was a strange name.

While the two maids kept the thoughts to themselves, Song Yue commented her thoughts, to which Mark replied Allen was from a faraway place.

*Ding! Single-shot pistol has been sold. 4 gold 50 silver coins have been deducted.

*Ding! Single-shot pistol has been sold. 4 gold 50 silver coins have been deducted.

*Ding! 50 bullets have been sold. 9 gold coins have been deducted.

Feeling pain in his chest due to the deductions, Mark bowed, following this world’s etiquette, ”Thank you for the purchase. Please visit again.”

As each of them took a box, one of the maids asked, ”Um, excuse me. May I know your name?” She seemed to develop a crush on Mark.

Upon hearing her question, Song Yue asked in realization, ”That’s right. Yesterday, I forgot to ask your name.”

”Lu Zhen,” Mark replied with the name that he was known in this world.

”Oh! So, it’s owner Lu. Nice meeting you.” Before she left, Song Yue suggested Mark change the boxes that looked a bit cheap for a unique weapon like this.

Mark just smiled but didn’t say anything about it because in his eyes this was the most basic weapon.

If he would pack a single-shot pistol with a grand one that costs more than 10 silver coins, what he would pack advanced weapons in the future?

That’s why he decided to stay with the original decision.

After she felt with her maids, Mark now looked at the Quest list. ”Okay, 74 gold coins to go to unlock the system store.”

***

Half an hour later, Song Manor;

”Milord,” A middle-aged man kneeled before Song Yun. This was the same hidden guard that followed Song Yue for protection.

”Tell me, what is it?” Song Yuan asked him.

The hidden guard reported the matter to the Minister to which the latter fell into deep thoughts, ”so, he doesn’t only have one of them. Having more than 20 of them means they are manufactured somewhere. Hmm…”

After thinking for a long time, he ordered, ”I need you to investigate the background of the store. I also need to know where they get those unique weapons from. Do whatever methods you have to use but my identity should be kept secret, understand?”

”Yes, Milord.”

After dismissing the guard, Song Yun took out one of the destroyed bullets that were collected earlier, ”This isn’t iron or steel. I wonder what this metal is.”
