Weapon seller in the world of magic-Novel

A few days passed away smoothly without any major incidents.

Genesis store, Imperial City;

A wealthy merchant along with his servant was paying attention to a handgun held by Mark and listening to his explanation in a daze. "Mr. Zheng, This pistol features a stainless steel slide with rugged, wear-resistant Nitron finish, front cocking serrations, and rear night sights, tritium fiber optic front sight, and also the Short Reset Trigger."

"Wait for a moment, Owner Lu." The wealthy merchant hurriedly stopped him from all the blabbering, "I don't understand a thing about you said. Explain it in normal language?"

"Ah, Yes, I apologize." Mark realized that he was too excited upon seeing the familiar weapon from his past life.

After calming himself, he then pointed at the tiny lens at the top of the gun. "These are night sights, which will glow in low light or darkness. So, it will become a lot easier to shoot. Of course, you still needed to depend on your senses regarding the target. As for the short reset trigger, it will decrease the reset distance of the standard trigger configuration by 60%. In simple terms, your firing speed will be more when compared to other firearms, I mean weapons here."

"I see…" The customer nodded in understanding.

Zheng Ha was from a commoner but a wealthy merchant family and import silk, tea, spices, and tobacco from all over the continent and sell at Imperial City.

Because he's wealthy, there's always a threat to his life and he was forced to keep guards all the time.

As for self-protection, he isn't a spirit warrior and didn't have time to train in other weaponry. Due to the rising fame of Genesis, he heard about these pistols where civilians can at least protect themselves just by clicking the so-called trigger.

He knows nothing about recoils or how tough is to aim at the target. Zheng Ha just wanted an easy way out and doesn't hesitate to spend a mere change for it.

And on this day, Zheng Ha finally visited the store and took at the prices along with the displayed items.

He liked the shotgun, which is the most expensive one out here but Mark refused to sell him giving a reason that they are exclusive weapons and are limited in number. It is only for qualified customers.

When asked who is qualified to possess it, Mark simply pointed at the board with revised instructions.

Zheng Ha is a merchant. So, he knew business tactics well. Upon seeing the restrictions on special weapons, he was only left speechless for a while before thanking him for the tip.

It isn't some business secret that unique things are sold to special people. Even Zheng Ha sells unique goods to only people of the major noble clans or the Imperial family.

But, Mark's rule gave him an idea of changing from specific status to the people who actually provide him large profits.

In the end, he decided to buy the 20 round Semi-Automatic Pistol.

Mark was filled with excitement. Even though it has been on sale for a couple of weeks, no one had purchased it because of its high price.

Now that there was the first sale of this weapon, Mark explained its features in detail and then, demonstrate how to use it, after that, he even gave another piece of information, "If you buy this weapon, you can buy magazines separately. This way, you just need to load bullets at once when you are free and use them continuously until you are out of the bullets."

"Magazine?" Zheng Ha fell into thoughts for a second before he pointed it, "oh, it's this one, right?"

"Yes." Mark nodded with a smile. "Each one costs 1 gold coin but it's worth it. Moreover, this magazine will only work with this weapon. So, the people who bought other weapons wouldn't even get such a privilege."

"Really?" Zheng Ha was naturally impressed by the features of the weapon. He was ready to buy them.

Mark was a little bit disappointed that the system didn't provide any magazine for 10-round pistols and only unlocked for 20-round ones but either way, he knew this benefit will only increase the popularity of the latter.

*Ding! 100 bullets have been sold. 16 gold coins have been deducted.

*Ding! You gifted 10 bullets. 2 gold coins have been deducted.

*Ding! Semi-Automatic Pistol (20-rounds) has been sold. 40 gold coins have been deducted.

*Ding! You gifted 20 bullets. 4 gold coins have been deducted.

*Ding! 5 Magazines have been sold. 4 gold coins have been deducted.

*Ding! You completed the Side Quest I. Upgrade crystal is sent to the inventory.

*Ding! A new side quest is added.

"Thank you for the purchase, Mr. Zheng." Mark let out a pleasant smile as the notifications arrived one after another.

The wealthy merchant caressed the expensive handgun and asked, "What did you say its name again?"

"Sig Sauer…" *Ahem* "I mean, the name is the same as the one written on the board, Semi-Automatic Pistol but since there were two pistols with the same name, you can add P226 to it."

"P226? What a weird name," Zheng Ha was puzzled at the model name.

Mark thought of a quick excuse and told him that the weapon prototype was successful after 225 failures.

Here is where Mark's 7 point Charisma made the customer believe his words and take them as it is.

"Okay, I'll come again if I'm satisfied with its performance." Zheng Ha asked his trusted servant to store the good in the storage ring before he turned around.

As the wealthy merchant is leaving, Mark bowed once again, not forgetting to remind him of another important thing. "Please come again."

Once the customer disappeared from his sight, Mark collapsed on his seat with a huge sigh of relief, "finally, a 20-round handgun has been sold. I think it's better to need to display only a couple of them. For golden gooses like these, expensive things should appear rare. Only then, they will get an urge to buy them. Anyway, let's see how many firearms are left to complete the quest but first, the reward."

With a thought in mind, Mark opened the inventory and saw a shiny crystal added to the slot.

He took out of the inventory. The crystal was fist-sized but very lightweight, glowing even under bright light. Allen, who usually stays like a statue until Mark gave an order or a customer arrives at the store, abruptly turned his head abruptly and stared at it.

Mark suddenly felt a gaze on him. As he turned his head, he saw it was Allen.

"What the…" He was taken aback to see Mark's intense gaze. For an Android that's supposed to be expressionless, Mark felt a sense of greediness in his eyes.

"It is indeed strange," Mark mumbled to himself and ordered Allen to close down the store for a while.

p While Allen is closing down the shutter, Mark proceeded to inspect it.

Upgrade Crystal (Bound)

Grade: N/A

Description: A crystal made from the core of Void Dragon, Velton. Upon consumption, the quality of ether particles will be improved, raising the potential of the user.

Note: This can be used to upgrade the strength of the Androids created by the system.

"I see, so this is why Allen is acting strangely." Realization dawned upon Mark. "This is indeed a great opportunity."

However, soon, a dilemma arose within him since he was originally looking forward to powering up his ether energy for several weeks. "What to do…"

"Allen or myself? The solution is obvious but if I do this, then, I would lose a great chance to increase my own strength, and dependence on Allen would increase even more. Nah, I need to act based on the situations around me rather than doing things for myself."

After finally coming to a decision, he told Allen to follow them upstairs and make him sit on the wooden chair in the living room with little furniture.

The last time he became the spirit warrior, it took time. So, he doesn't want to close down the store for ten or so hours for this.

"Allen, I'm using this on you. Be prepared." Mark said to him while stretching his hand, following the instructions of the system.

Allen's blue eyes glowed for a moment as his eyes fixed on the crystal before he nodded, "I'm ready, Big Brother."

Mark then touched the glowing yellow crystal to Allen's head.

*Ding! You are using Upgrade Crystal on the Android, Allen Spencer. Confirm?

"Yes"
