An Extra’s POV

The deal was sealed after that.

Aldred Winsley used an Enchanted Item to calculate just how many Monster Cores existed in each sack, and by multiplying them with the agreed-upon price, they arrived at the selling price.

A whooping 4,650 Platinum Coin!

'I still can't believe this…'

Rey was trying his best to remain composed after hearing such an absurd number, but his heart remained unsteady.

Adding that to his balance of 1,051 Platinum Coins, he now possessed 5,701 Platinum Coins in total.

'I never thought I'd get this much in a single go… talkless of now!'

Rey felt like a scammer, but he didn't feel the slightest bit bad.

Why would he?

This was the Black Market for a reason.

'Once the influx of Monster Cores arrive, these guys will be at a loss. I should probably avoid coming here for the time being…'

Rey smiled internally, realizing he had made enough money for now.

Training was what came next, so distractions like this were unnecessary.

"As always, it is a pleasure doing business with you." Aldred's voice woke him from his deep thoughts.

The deal had been completed, but they were both still in the lounge.

Staff had come to take away the Monster Cores, and also give him his money. At this point, Rey felt like he was overstaying his welcome.

'I should be leaving now…'

He rose to his feet in a slow, dignified manner. Aldred's gaze was on him the entire time.

"Likewise. I'm leaving now." He said in a monotone.

At this point, Aldred jumped to his feet—almost as if he hadn't expected their dear seller to leave so soon.
