An Extra’s POV

Rey took in a deep breath.

He had actually never been in a proper sale before, but that didn't stop him from trying his best here.

There were a bunch of things he hadn't done before, and he managed to scale through them on the first try.

'Fighting monsters is a good example…'

Right now, he was treading on a fine line.

'I have to be careful.'

"The Grade is considerably high, and since this is a wholesale, you should know that I have over a thousand pieces." Rey finally spoke.

His voice was clear, and his tone was confident.

"I am well aware, but—"

"I am also well aware… of your procedures. However, I have mine. And that entails speaking to a higher-up when it comes to business of this scale."

Rey could already see anxiety creep in on the face of the man in glasses.

He just had to keep pushing.

"We're talking goods worth hundreds, if not thousands of Platinum Coins. Do you really think you are sufficient to handle such a trade? Will you take full responsibility?"

"S-sir, I'm just doing my job…" The man protested weakly.

'I know, man. I know.'

In all honesty, Rey felt a little bad for what he was doing. But so what?

He was sure that they would do the same to him if he showed even the slightest hint of weakness.

These people were the monsters of the business world.

He had to destroy them before they did the same to him. Else, he would be devoured before realizing it.

"I'm only stating facts. I can't compel you to bypass these procedures for me. You are well within your rights to refuse…"

Rey could see the hesitance in the man's face.
