CHAPTER 24 (ROUND ARENA TICKET)
1291 Words
Since they both lock of gold coins, Azure's had an idea that surely worked since their task didn't show up yet. The wider place of the mainland is more crowded because it was City. If in the human world there is a park or sights called, there is a mainland here for players to visit. The entrance of the round arena was closed by two large-bodied men in formal suits. People say, no ticket, no entry.
"What's our plan now?" Amethyst asked.
"I have an idea," Azure said.
"What is that?"
"Let's find a job," Azure simply said.
"Seriously, here?" she asked, raising her curved brows.
"Yes, here," Azure smiled.
Azure took Amethyst to a lucky charm shop. The owner of that shop is an old man. The manager of the lucky charm shop which is an antique shop and Azure are now negotiating to him for their salary intensely as they sit at the table. Amethyst, on the other hand, just watches them talk.
"1000 coins," Azure said.
"500 coins," the old man said, rested his hands on the table
"1000 coins," Azure said, while suppressing his annoyance.
"600 coins," the old man said, seriously.
"910 coins," Azure said. They are now staring at each other.
"650 coins," the old man said, without even blinking.
"909 coins," Azure frowned and leaned back in his chair.
"700 that's all," the old man said.
Azure stood up from his chair and gulped because of frustration.
"Okay, 800 coins, final," he slammed his hand on the table
Amethyst could not speak because of the intensity of the conversation between the two. All she could do was watch them while Azure is arguing over the salary it will provide. So she just let the two talk.
The old man stood up too, "1000 coins, if you can give me twenty customers today,"
Amethyst spoke, "But it is impossible,"
They will only work for 2 hours, and that is impossible for them. The creator of this game only makes the character the real person when it has a big role to play here. But when they're just simple soldiers, it means they are not real people. The owner of this shop is obviously human.
"We can do that," Azure smirked.
The old man stood up and spoke, "Good, I'm expecting to have a customer today."
"You can count on me," Azure said.
"Goodluck kid, you can both start now," the old man said, turning his back and starting to walk to the wood counter since the place is old antique.
Amethyst spoke when the old man walked away, "Hey, can we do that?"
Azure put his left hand behind his head. He doesn't really know if they can do it but he was brave enough that they could do it.
"Are you serious, Azure?" Amethyst shocked, she already knew what he was about to tell without telling her.
"But, we can do it, don't worry," he said.
Amethyst raised her left brow, "Wait, I have an idea,"
Since Azure is a handsome man and every woman here definitely would love his look.
A good idea entered Amethyst's mind. Without explanation, she immediately grabbed Azure's hand and pulled him out of the antique shop.
"H-hey,"
"Stay here, you just call the customer to come in and buy here," she said, raising her chin.
"But,"
"No but," Amethyst commanded, before leaving him outside the store.
"Damn," he whispered.
Azure shrugged as he saw how many players were passing each second. Amethyst was waiting inside the lucky charm shop while Azure didn't even know what he would do. Several women stared at him as they passed by to Azure standing at the old shop.
Azure closed his eyes and sighed before he finally shouted, "Everyone, come on, buy here, be lucky players—"
He immediately stopped when the female players who passed by looked at him. He sighed in his mind as he felt so embarrassed. But he did not expect what happened next. Those women themselves chose and lined up opposite him as if they were thrilled as they looked at him.
"Hey, if I buy your product, can we be partners?" the woman said, in a flirty way.
Azure took a deep breath on his mind because of what's happening. Why did Amethyst think this, damn!
"No, but if you buy here, that added charisma," Azure said, forcing her lips to smile.
"Really?" the woman said. She is also quite fat, but curvy.
"Of course," he answered.
"Okay, then let's buy their product," the woman said, third in line.
The group of women in the queue outside entered, which surprised Amethyst because there were so many. About 30 women entered the shop. More than what the old man said. Azure smirked as he also entered the shop. His successful face greeted Amethyst.
Amethyst frowned and gave him a deadly look because maybe it did something strange so their female customers increased. But the most important thing is that they immediately got 30 customers and more women. Amethyst assisted all the women who entered this antique shop.
The old man was just at the wood counter to sell them the lucky charms they would need. The old man was just at the wood counter to sell them the lucky charms they would need. After an hour and a half, they sold 40 lucky charms and earned 140,000 coins. The women have already bought the lucky charm, the others do not want to leave because they still want to talk to Azure.
Azure crossed his arm together and spoke, "Pay back time,"
"Nice kid, here is my payment to you, and to your girlfriend," he said and handed the small bag of gold coins to Amethyst and Azure.
"2000 coins,"
"Is that true Senior?" Azure asked.
"Yes, for a long time, just now someone visited here again," the old man said.
"What's your name Senior?" Amethyst asked and smiled.
"The game strictly said that no one should know my name." Old man explained, he gripped the arm of the chair.
"Call me Senior instead," Old man added.
"Okay, thank you Senior," Amethyst smiled.
"Amethyst, right? I see that your power is strong, just use it right," Senior said, one glance at Amethyst he knew it was strong.
"And you, Kid," Senior said, and it turned its gaze to Azure.
"I know you already have a lot of game skills, use that to succeed,"
"Thanks, Senior," Azure smiled, slightly.
"Oh, I forgot, here use this," Senior said. He pulled the door of the small cabinet at his feet and took the two lucky charms. He first handed Amethyst a green quartz bracelet.
"It has a healing property,"
Amethyst took it and quickly put on her right hand. It looks like a Prasiolite; also known as green quartz, green amethyst or vermarine. Not only does it sound like her name, it also heals strong injuries to the body.
"Wow, thank you, Senior," she said, cheerfully.
"Glad you love Prasiolite healer charm," Senior smiled and faced Azure.
"Here's your," he said and handed it to Azores palm.
"Garnet stone adds to your strength by 10 percent," Senior said.
It is a black garnet pendant placed on the herringbone black necklace. He took it. Amethyst helped him to wear it on him.
"Thank you, Senior," Azure said.
"It's nothing kid, you and Amethyst are always welcome here," Senior smiled.
After they succeeded in their plan to get enough gold coins, they quickly went to the Circle arena and bought 2 mid-ticket. It's a waste of money for a Vip ticket worth 3000 coins. They line up first before they can get inside because many players also want to watch it.
