Chapter 245 The auction I

Chapter 245 The auction I

The loud whispers and noise faded behind him when Kyle opened the door and stepped inside the weapon shop.

The shop was filled with various kinds of weapons but he ignored them all and approached the white-haired old man standing at the counter.

The old man's brows wrinkled when he saw Kyle. Just a few minutes ago, he sensed the crying man outside his shop but to his astonishment, he wasn't able to sense the culprit's presence. That's why he gazed outside from a window.

However, even after looking at the silver-haired boy who attacked the screaming guy the man wasn't able to sense anything from him.

His expression was cautious as he looked at Kyle.

"What can I help you with sir?"

Kyle didn't mind the old man's gaze. He gazed at his pointy ears and went straight to the point.

"I want to sell some weapons. There are a lot and their quality is not good so I am willing to sell them as long as you can offer a good price."

The old man nodded and gestured for Kyle to show him the weapons.

In the next second, a pile of weapons appeared beside the counter. The old man was astonished once again because Kyle wasn't wearing any storage ring. However, he was soon distracted when he saw the pile of weapons.

After inspecting the weapons he nodded.

"Mostly you have swords. Among the pile the highest rank weapon is (D+)-Rank. Including the saber, I will offer 7,000 mana stones for all of them."

Kyle raised his eyebrow with surprise because except for the bow he bought before the event he took out all the weapons he gathered during the event.

"Only 7,000? The saber is precious and there are so many weapons!"

The old man gave him a business smile. He pointed at the pile of weapons.

"I believe you stole them from others because I don't think anyone would carry so many low-rank weapons with them. So, the amount I am offering is already huge because not many would buy these weapons."

Kyle blinked and pinched his nose.

'This old man is cunning.'

He grumbled but agreed because 7,000 mana stones were better than being poor.

The old man's smile widened. He hurriedly took out a low-rank storage ring and placed 7,000 mana stones inside before handing the ring to Kyle.

"Please never hesitate to visit again."

Kyle clicked his tongue and left the shop. He wandered around for a while and stopped in front of an old barbershop.

After contemplating for a second, he entered the shop. Unlike the weapon shop the barber shop was pretty empty. There were just a few chairs and some mirrors hanging on the walls.

A middle-aged woman with curly hair greeted him with a smile.

"What's up, kid? Want to do your hair? You arrived at a good time. I just opened the shop so there is no customer."

Kyle gave her a nod and subconsciously gazed at her ears. They were not pointy. She was a human.

The woman was delighted and asked him to sit on a nearby chair. She gazed at the mirror and chuckled when Kyle's hair glistened under the light.

"You have such pretty hair kid. You sure you want to cut them?"

Kyle grabbed his shoulder-length hair.

"It's fine. Just make them shorter."

With a nod, the woman admired his shoulder-length silver hair one last time and picked up the scissors.

With each snip, Kyle's hair gradually became shorter. The sound of the scissors cutting through the strands filled the air. Kyle watched in the mirror as his hair transformed. As the final touches were made, Kyle couldn't help but nod at his reflection, loving the fresh and polished appearance.

The woman gazed at his reflection with a satisfied expression.

"Kid, do you like your new look? Also, you have a pretty pair of eyes."

Kyle patted his clothes and stood up. He gazed at his reflection. He looked good with long hair but shorter hair wasn't bad either.

"It's good."

"Just good?"

Kyle blinked and looked back at the woman who was smiling at him with a smug expression.

"Ahem... How much do I need to pay?"

The woman sighed when her work wasn't appreciated and shook her head.

"No need. It's rare to meet a customer with such soft and bright hair. So, it's free."

A smile appeared on Kyle's face. For some unknown reason, she looked kind and gentle now. Of course, it was definitely not because she didn't ask for money.

He thanked her without noticing how his simple smile had a devasting effect on the woman.

Kyle left the shop, leaving behind the woman who was frozen in her spot. Only when Kyle was gone, did the women snap out and look at his fading back.

"Damn, how can someone smile so beautifully?"

Meanwhile, the moment Kyle stepped out from the shop a middle-aged man entered the shop. Kyle stopped in his tracks and looked at the man. Just like the women the middle-aged man was a human. However, he was injured, blood was flowing out from his abdomen leaving behind a long trail.

A frown appeared on Kyle's face. He immediately sensed the man's rank and his frown deepened.

"He is (D)-Rank. The woman was (E+)-Rank. What if he is running away from some enemies? Can she handle it?"

Kyle's face darkened. It was very rare for him to have a good impression of someone. And the curly-haired woman was one of those rare people.

Without even thinking twice, he entered the shop again with silent footsteps but he sighed with relief when he saw the situation.

The injured man was sitting on the chair where Kyle was sitting a while ago. On the other hand, the woman was crying and pouring something on his wound.

'It's seemed they know each other.'

He was going to leave silently when he accidentally heard the woman's hushed exclamation.

"How can they be so heartless? They are trying to silence all the low-rank workers who know about the secret auction. Look at yourself. You are bleeding so much! What would I do if something happened to you?"
