The young in front of Ray naturally dealt with many people daily but he was scared out of his wits when he saw Ray's smile that looked like a devil's smile as his face was smeared in blood from his previous battles. Therefore, the man gulped and started explaining everything to Ray.
"Hmm!!!, so that's the benefits I get?, and I would even be able to make a small party of 5 people to fulfill quests of a higher level. Now that's great man, and thanks a lot for the info, here you go", Ray said as he tossed a silver coin to the man in front of him. After all, the man had given him valuable information that would allow Ray to get stronger in less amount of time. Moreover, the man also upgraded his traveler rank without any hassle, therefore Ray rewarded the man after all that man had solved one of Ray's biggest problems and that was auctioned. Now that Ray was a novice traveler, he could participate in auctions up to intermediate tier and auction items of basic tier and even auction pseudo-intermediate tier spirit cores. free(w)ebnov(e)l
While Ray tossed the man a silver coin and did not think much about it, the man behind the counter felt his heart thumping as his eyes widened upon seeing the coin Ray had tossed to him, then he quickly reached his hands and picked up the coin, afraid that Ray would change his mind. After all, such a reaction was guaranteed from someone who was paid in bronze and for such people, a silver coin was a rare commodity. However, Ray did not even give that man a side glance for his actions as this was what Ray intended to do after all, as the man was a mere mortal who had no power in the outside world, this man would be grateful to Ray and he could also help Ray in getting insider and crucial information from Guild's Association. After that, Ray left Guild's Association and reached his hotel room to take a bath so that he could clean himself of the blood and gore. After which, he headed out of his room and went to a merchant's shop. There asked the merchant, "Good day sir, could I have one of your finest suits" After all Ray only had his travel clothes and he can not visit the next place he planned to visit while wearing such clothes as he had to make an impact with what he was doing it.
The merchant seeing that Ray was a traveler simply nodded and pointed at Ray to follow him to where the suits were kept. He then proceeded to take Ray's measurements and placed 4 suits in front of him.
Ray noticed that these suits were different from how suits on Earth were. However, it was to be the case as right now Ray was in a world filled with magic, beasts, abilities, and whatnot. Therefore, he just carefully observed the suits. All of them were very traditional styled dresses. The suits he had been shown were of 2 types. One type was the typical mage robes and the other type of suit was oddly similar to one that was used in ancient times on Earth with a silk shirt coupled with leather pants. Moreover, Ray observed that the mage robes had different designs on them, while the silk shirt and leather pants were quite simple. Therefore, Ray chose the silk shirt coupled with leather pants as they were much plainer and allowed Ray to keep a low profile as well because mages were of course rare, to begin with. freewebnovel.(c)om
After settling the bill with the merchant, Ray walked out of that man's shop and headed towards his hotel room to have a change of clothes. After the change of clothes, Ray die to his good looks coupled with his well-built body looked like a charming young master that would squeeze the hearts of many young women. However, Ray as always was oblivious to it. Then he began walking in his direction, which was the 'Auction house'.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outside the auction house, there were several people lined up and from the looks of it, they seemed to be young travelers at the beginner or novice level. However, there were even some young travelers that were allowed VIP access to the auction house, and these people were most probably young heirs of big families or some inner disciples of sects that had a higher influence.
As Ray reached his destination, he could see a lot of people near the auction house and he even understood the hierarchy of that place due to Aurora giving a heads up on the situation, hence he came prepared. After fixing his state, he walked towards the direction of the auction house and flashed his novice tier travelers' badge towards the man standing at the front while he slipped a gold coin into the guard's hand. Then he said to the guard in an indifferent voice, "Bring me the manager, I have some spirit cores to sell".
While Ray said this to the guard, the main impact on the guard was not from his words or attitude but from the gold coin he had slipped into the guard's hand, therefore leaving the guard an impression that Ray came from an influential background. Then the guard rushed back to bring in the manager of the auction house. However, the guard only summoned the manager for the second floor of the auction house that dealt with novice-tier travelers and intermediate-tier beast spirit cores, artifacts, pills, skills, or any other magical item at that grade. Moreover, they also dealt with the pseudo-intermediate tier spirit cores, which were of course a rarity as the lower a beast tier the harder was it for a beast to remain between the pseudo-intermediate tier for long and such beasts advance to an intermediate tier within weeks. Therefore, not many people could find them and kill them. After all, Ray got lucky to encounter such creatures that recently reached the pseudo-intermediate tier.
Other than that, Ray also knew that he would only be getting entry for the second floor or lower as his rank was still not high enough. Therefore, he reached the guard that was guarding the way to the second floor on purpose as this would not only save him time but also in the eyes of the observant guards would he look like someone knowledgeable thus his words and actions have a greater effect.
After waiting for some time, the guard arrived with a chubby stout looking man that seemed to be in his thirties. The man wore the same type of clothes that Ray did and had a badge on his chest that indicated him as the manager. The manager had a pot belly that if looked at from afar would make it seem that a pregnant woman was walking. The manager gasped for breath as he came running after hearing the guard's words. After all, for the second floor, pseudo-intermediate tier spirit cores were a rare commodity, hence the man had come as fast as he could.
Then as the man's breathing settled and he regained his composure, he asked Ray, "Good afternoon sir, how may u help you? I got the news that you had something to sell?"
After listening to what the man said, Ray didn't answer him but took out one pseudo-intermediate tier spirit core from his inventory and showed it to the man while saying," I have 3 more of these".
