Chapter 12 - Purchased

"Then what is the normal price?" Aldric immediately asked.

It seemed that even by increasing the price by three times, the honey was still sometimes sold or else this shop would not have dared to sell it in such a way.

"One liter costs one Level 10 Monster Core," the shop assistant replied.

Aldric's eyes lit up at that.

Even he could not control his smile.

"Alright, thank you," he said before taking a step out of the shop leaving the shop assistant dumbfounded.

Why did he suddenly leave like that?

She wondered.

Little did she know that Aldric was now going to a shop that sold bottles.

He bought 900 bottles that could hold liquids, transferring them into his Storage Artifact.

Inside the Storage Artifact, he could control the honey to go directly into the bottles without being taken out first.

Everything was simple and now he had 900 bottles ready to sell.

Of course, what he still had to think about was who to sell these nectars to.

'Or maybe it's better if I sell them to other players?'

He had an idea.

Through System Game, he opened this game forum, a cross-country forum so large that every second, there were thousands of contents uploaded.

In fact, he was only just aware of the forum's existence.

Apparently, the forum itself was a marketplace.

People could offer each other items they wanted to sell, either by bartering between in-game items or selling them for real money in the real world.

If you want to use money, you can receive money using this game account before sending it to your personal account from the game account.

That way, your identity will become difficult to trace because basically only the developer knows.

Here, Aldric was finally able to see the prices of the Monster Cores of various levels.

(Monster Core Level 5, 6 Dollars!)

(Monster Core Level 7, 10 Dollars!)

(Monster Core Level 10, 20 Dollars!)

The higher the level of the Monster Core, the higher the price. This cannot be measured by the amount of their spiritual energy. However, the higher level ones can be used by Low Level Magicians, but High Level Magicians cannot use the lower level Monster Cores.

If the price of 1 liter of Honey of Life was one Level 10 Monster Core, then it would be worth 20 Dollars in earth money.

The cash-strapped Aldric was naturally very enticed.

After all, with 900 bottles of Honey of Life, he could earn up to 18,000 Dollars, maybe even more since he could raise the price a little considering Honey of Life was something rarer.

'It's probably enough that I sell half with money, the rest with Monster Cores. After all, I need them to become stronger.'

From that marketplace, Aldric later discovered that this world had a place to send and receive goods from afar in just a moment.

It was at the Time Space Hall, a business that was said to have branches in all cities.

This Time Space Hall almost monopolized all inter-city delivery business, something that was inevitable since they had the ability to send goods to any city in just a moment.

What makes it remarkable is that the cost of delivering goods does not depend on the value of the goods, but on their weight, just like on earth.

Even if the item is very valuable, as long as the weight is light, the price is also cheap.

However, if the weight is heavy, the price will be expensive so people who have a lot of items to ship usually prefer normal shipping.

When searching for information about the Time Space Hall on the forums, Aldric found many warnings from players to never mess around there or else you would be in the most serious trouble of your life.

In this city, the headquarters of the Time Space Hall was right beside the city lord's residence, even having a bigger, taller, and spacious building.

It had a courtyard surrounding it from the front and back as well as each side.

There were no guards guarding the headquarters.

All the doors were open, allowing everyone to enter but it was mostly only the upper class who entered.

Some people who had entered and then left again were seen carrying a lot of goods.

They had obviously received goods from far away.

Aldric remained standing in front of the base. He first made a post on the forum marketplace.

(900 bottles of Honey Of Life for sale, each bottle containing one liter. 450 bottles sold with Level 10 Monster Cores and 450 bottles sold with money, 25 dollars per bottle!)

He sent the post along with a screenshot of the Honey of Life image.

Since the account on the forum was basically using this game's account, it directly showed that he really had 900 bottles of Honey of Life ready for sale. Therefore, cheating is rather difficult in this game when transacting between fellow players in the marketplace.

If money was sent for example, then one had to send the goods.

"Mm..."

Aldric was surprised that after only a few moments he posted his honey, it immediately got thousands of views.

It seemed that this marketplace instantly viralized items that were considered rare.

DING!

DING!

DING!

Message notification after message notification eventually started popping up, reaching hundreds in such a short period of time that Aldric himself wasn't sure how to react.

Since he had 900 bottles to sell, this made things complicated as he had to serve the buyers one after another.

However, he was then even more surprised when he read the first message.

(Snow_Goose: Sell them all to me, I'll pay with four hundred and fifty Level 10 Monster Cores and 11,250 Dollars!)

Aldric froze for quite a while, not expecting such a message.

'Who is this person?' He wondered in surprise.

After that, he replied, (Are you serious?)

(Yes, I'll send the money to your account and tell me the name of the city you're in so I can send the Monster Cores you want!)

That person really didn't seem to want to make small talk, but wanted to complete this transaction immediately.

Aldric took a deep breath.

Of course, he saw this as a good thing because then, he wouldn't have to bother sending each and every one of the 900 bottles of honey.

DING!

(You just received 11,250 Dollars from Snow_Goose, you can send it to your personal bank account!)

Suddenly a new notification came in.
