Chereads / The Merchant of All / Chapter 5 - Deal

Chapter 5 - Deal

Sebastian can't take it anymore, he is following the black person for 2 hours now and they are attracting attention. Sebastian knows that with his face he'll attract attention, but the black person in front of him is like a pilgrim. No one dares to approach him, some are even bowing their head.

That is the effect of natural charisma. While Sebastian got gaze then after that some will sneer and mocked him in silence. It is because of his somewhat ruffian manner that is contradicting his face. Plus with the black person in front, he garners so much mocking.

The black person walks in an alleyway, there are no crowds here. Sebastian is really at his limits so he shouted at the black person.

"Hey! Stop!"

The black person stops, and then he faces Sebastian. Now Sebastian is nervous, he forgot that he is strong 'cause the black person gave him a different feeling.

"Yes?"

The black person asks, this is the first time Sebastian heard the voice, he is a man that's for sure. The voice is not deep and not low, but it is pleasant to hear. Sebastian confirms that the black person is a man because of his voice. A woman's voice is on a higher pitch while the black person is neutral.

"What are you?"

Sebastian suddenly blurted out due to nervousness. After getting woke up, Sebastian's face heated up due to embarrassment.

"I-I mean w-"

Before Sebastian can continue correcting himself, the black person talk.

"Sebastian Yuin, Sword Saint class. The first person in the warrior class; got 5 chances to draw in the roulette, gets three 1000 status points, a saint class change and the mysterious box."

This time Sebastian got agitated, but he can't do anything. He is exposed for god's sake. The person in front of him really can see his stats. He can even know that he is the first in the warrior class, he even knows what he draws. It is creepy because you can't hide anything from him.

" What are you talking about?"

"There's no use denying"

Sebastian shut up his mouth. After calming himself down he becomes shameless. There's no use pretending if the person in front knows your secret.

"Teach me mannerisms, I will pay"

"What is it that you're going to pay?"

"Gold coins, I have 12,999 gold coins. I'll pay all of it, just teach me mannerisms"

"I don't need gold coins," Yuuri said then he let Sebastian see some of his gold coins, it is in a million.

This makes Sebastian question himself, why the heck does the man in front of him have so many gold coins and here I am bragging about my 12,999 gold coins.

"What do you want?" since gold coins are not needed, Sebastian asks the person what he wants.

Yuuri thinks for a moment before answering.

"You"

"Huh? What do you mean you? Me? You want me?" Sebastian said with panic like someone is violating him. He even covers his body with his hand.

Yuuri started laughing

"You're a man but you act like a kid" Yuuri mocked

"Y-you! I'm not gay" Sebastian shouted at the top of his lungs, luckily they were in an alleyway else the crowd will burst to laugh.

After calming himself down, Sebastian looks at the person in front of him. His gaze becomes serious but there's still a hint of uneasiness in his eyes. Yuuri saw all of it.

Yuri's mask started to change, the mask started grinning wide which will give you creeps.

"You're a virgin?" Yuuri chose to play, even though Yuuri himself is a virgin but he acts like not.

"Y-you! Stop, what do you want?" Sebastian can't retort so he chose to bring the subject back.

"I told you, I want you"

"No, I'll never have sex with you"

"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA" Yuuri started laughing, his mask even has tears.

"You thought I want your body? HA HA HA HA HA HA! Does sex the first thing that pops up in your mind when I said I want you? This is so hilarious, you're not even that attractive and I'm not interested in someone who doesn't have experience.

What I mean when I said I want you is yourself, not that body of yours. I want your presence, companion. I need someone who can work for me, I bet you're playing PARADISE so you know Guilds?

I'm going to make a guild but I'm not going to be the guild leader, I want someone who will act as a guild leader while I'll act as the assistant of the guild leader.

I will act in the shadows while the Guild Leader that I appointed will act in limelight. I suggest this 'cause I think you want attention so much that you even make your face that exaggerated."

Yuuri stopped talking, he only eyed Sebastian. Sebastian on the other hand is hurt, the man in front of him said that he is not attractive.

I can even make straight boys bend and you said I'm not attractive? I don't have any true experience but I bet the man in front of me doesn't even have experience too. Although I don't have the experience I still watch porn, I know how to do it but I can't get hard even though I'm watching.

I even watch varieties of porn but still, I don't get hard, I even suspect being a defected but I'm not according to the doctor.

I feel so humiliated, this man targets my insecurities. I vow for today that I'll make this guy pay a hundredfold.

"Deal" I readily agreed, the easiest way to make this man pay is to get closer to him. I'll seduce him even though I'm a man myself I still don't know my real sexuality. I bet this man is a pansexual since in today's society it is already accepted.

But before that, I still don't know his name.

"What's your name? As you know I am Sebastian Yuin"

Yuuri smiled behind the mask, his mask also changed his expression to calmness.

"Yuuri"

Sebastian smiled but this time Yuuri is the one who got goosebumps out of nowhere. He suddenly felt a bad premonition when Sebastian smiled.

Sebastian is now more dazzling than before, his smile becomes natural that you'll feel attraction but Yuuri himself didn't. He has complete immunity to mind attacks. Yuuri chose to not care about what he felt and ignore it.

Yuuri took out a potion bottle that has water in it. Then he cast his talent on it, the colourless water started darkening until it becomes purple. What Yuuri gave to the water is memories that he made out of nowhere, it is a memory of a noble person who holds a sword. It depends on the person who drinks this, what he absorbed depends on him.

Yuuri gives the bottle to Sebastian.

"Drink it, absorbed the memories and make it your own. You can choose to change some changes to fit your style"

"What is this?"

"It contains memories of mannerisms of noble and others. Drink it and we're going somewhere"

Sebastian chose to trust Yuuri, he drank the purple liquid and unknown memories that are not his started appearing in his brain. He absorbed it and started making it his own.

After 20 minutes, Sebastian opens his eye. There's a big difference between before and now. His eyes before that contained vigilance and curiosity are gone, it now contains gentleness and calmness. His posture got fixed, if before it is somewhat forced since he mimics Yuuri but still in a ruffian side, now it is like a natural.

He is now a gentle swordsman, he can even now control his facial expressions. He smiled naturally but if normal people see him now, he'll automatically have a fan base. He started walking toward Yuuri, every step of his is natural, it contains the elegance of a swordsman.

He even draws his sword and started dancing, Sebastian is now complete. That is in terms of his mannerisms but not the state of his mind. But it still improves a lot.

"Yuuri" Sebastian tried to flirt but Yuuri just nod and said.

"Let's go"

Sebastian noted to himself 'Too far, Not enough. I'll make you admit defeat.' He also started thinking about Yuuri's talent and skills. Is the bottle he gave me, does he make it thru his talent or his skill?

Sebastian doesn't know but that is not important, what is important is he can now garner more attention and he had a goal.
