Buying some medical products, the next thing we bought was an artifact that made liquidized mana.

This is an investment that must be made. The artifact was simple to use. If you let it stay in a place filled with mana, the artifact would gather that mana and make it drinkable.

Once you drink the liquidized mana, you will be allowed to absorb it. Drinking mana gave me a sense of satisfaction.

"Master, are you sure you want this~?"

"I'm sure... Even if it crushes a part of my heart. I love the feeling of drinking mana."

"It does give a warm feeling. I could see why you like it."

"Charles. Why don't you buy this? It's costly, but for you, it's a treasure."

A skill leveling capsule. Are these things common? This is the third one that I have seen. But is Reina even allowed to pick it up?

"How much does it cost?"

"Ten Billion."

"..."

Let's look at the bright side. Everything here would be fifty percent off. I'll earn them back. Yeah. Think positive.

"Let's check out. I don't have the heart to buy anymore."

"Master~! Let's go out and eat~!"

"Ok..."

With me having to pick out everything. We went to the counter to buy everything. The total cost should be 8.25B.

"To think the top student of the academy would show up to my store. Charles Anderson, am I correct?"

Why is he asking me that? My name is literally on the card. But when he said this was his store, does that mean he's the owner of this place?

"Yes, I'm. Do you want something from me?"

The man in front of me was a man in his forties. He is pitiful for a man. Tower at the height of 4'5, one would barely notice him if he wasn't standing on a stool.

"Where are my manners? I'm Kurt Alexander, the owner of this fine establishment."

"I want to propose a deal."

"A deal?"

"Yes, a deal."

"What kind?"

"I'll give you everything you want to buy for free, and I will add this!"

The owner of this store was holding a book. What will a book do for me? But what he was making it out to be sounded precious.

I then looked at the reactions of Nene, Reina, and Montgomery. I could see all of them shocked. So it was something good, but what is it?

"This is a grimoire, a book that'll allow you to learn a random skill. This is my most priceless possession."

"Master~... The deal must be hard if he's willing to give away a grimoire."

What Nene said is correct if he's willing to give something like that away for a deal. It must be something troublesome.

"Don't be so quick to reject the proposal. It's been a goal of mine forever. For me, it's something that I can dream of, but for you. It could easily be achieved."

"Why don't we both talk in the back of the room? Just us two. If you don't want to accept it, I will leave it at that. I'm not foolish enough to mess with you."

He sounds so suspicious. But I then looked at Reina, signaling her to use her skill. Reina then looked at me and nodded heavily.

"Fine, I will hear what you have to say."

With Reina's insurance, Kurt wouldn't do anything to harm me. So, it does look like he only wants to perform a deal.

"Very well. Follow me."

Kurt smiled hopingly, seeing that I would hear him out. Following Kurt to the back room, we will go into the deal's full details.

"So, what deal are we going to make?"

"Before we do that. I want to make sure that nothing is leaked."

Kurt put a geass in front of me. Reading its content, there wasn't much written. He had only wanted me to keep silent about this meeting. Since it wasn't harmful, I didn't mind.

"Before I talk about the deal. How well do you know the people in the top ten in the overall ranking list?"

"I don't have any direct contact with them. But I saw the first and second place."

"I see. That's good."

"And why would that be good?"

He made it sound like he didn't want me to be friends with them. Does he have some grudge against them?

"Does the deal have anything to do with them?"

"Yes, it does. I want you to kill the eighth ranker. Ricardo Mullen."

"So, for the things you'll give, you want me to kill the eighth-ranked?"

Why does everyone here think that I'm just a mass murderer? First Reina and now this guy.

"Why me? Many people would take this offer. Besides, you need to add more if you want me to accept it."

"To answer your question, you have the talent. And you seem like the guy who likes money."

"..."

What he was saying wasn't wrong. But do I have that aura around me? If it gives me money, I don't think I would care.

"You want me to add more? I'll do so once you kill him."

"Stingy. Someone within the top ten is a valuable person in this world. This would cause a big wave if I were caught doing so."

"Fine, I will add a year's worth of medical bathing materials if you accept my terms."

"Is there a time limit? That guy must've angered you a lot if you're willing to offer so much to kill him."

Hearing what I said, Kurt was silent. Thinking about the man Ricardo, Kurt had a livid expression once thinking about him.

"I'll give you five years. If you can't kill him within five years, then everything I gave must be back double the price."

"And once you get him killed, I will offer something similar to the price of the grimoire."

"Then I'll accept."

The reward that I'll earn will give me a lot. I don't have any opinion on the man named Ricardo, so killing him wouldn't make me feel bad.

With power, this world only allows the strong to survive. So Ricardo, don't feel bad if I killed you for billions.
