"The first person is a merchant, the second person is the commoner, the third person is too good to be true." Noel answered.

Count Ardagan pointed at himself. "I'm the third person… Or you can say trying to live that way."

"The third person is our ideal because he helps people with his kindness, not for what they can get!" Count Ardagan raised the forefinger, symbolizing the first person. "Let's talk about the first person first.

"If you meet someone like this, how are you going to approach them?"

Noel answered without hesitation, "Since they're going to suck me dry, then I don't mind fighting them as well."

"That's right. When you meet normal merchants, they'll try to set up the contract with a win-lose situation.

He then raised his middle finger, symbolizing the second person. "Then how about the second person?"
