Weapon seller in the world of magic

Upon remembering the money he was supposed to take from the Ji Clan, realization dawned upon him. So, that's why the Prince had instructed him to hand over the money to the store owner. He thought it was because they were partners and were sharing the ransom amount.

He turned around to look at the Ji Clan's Patriarch, "Lord Ji, the ransom please."

"Okay," Ji Cheng's mind was preoccupied with his son's safety. So, he hurriedly handed over a platinum graded pouch that can accommodate a million gold coins to Huo Fen.

As Huo Fen handed the entire amount to Allen, the latter scanned it and reported, "Big Brother, a total of 300,089 gold coins."

Mark looked at Huo Fen, "it looked like there are 89 coins higher than the supposed deposit. You want it back or…"

Huo Fen didn't reply to him and just turned around to look at Ji Clan's Patriarch. Ji Cheng waved his hand with a wry smile, "When 300 thousand coins were gone, what is that change matter? Forget it. I just want my son back."

"Okay, um, can I have them please?" Huo Fen asked Mark. 89 might not be much for Ji Clan or the Church but it is a huge sum for him.

While Allen started placing the coins one after another on the counter, Huo Fen took out a talisman from his storage ring and burned it.

Very soon, a telepathic message came to his mind.

He turned around and informed them, "My master had said that young lord Ji is at an inn named Kong Xin, located at Fantang district."

"Okay, let's go, right away." Ji Cheng turned around to walk away without waiting any longer.

"Me too?" Huo Fen asked in hesitation.

"Of course, you are coming with us." Ji Wu grabbed him. After giving a bow to Mark, the elder of Ji Clan dragged him away only to stop after a few steps.

"Arch Bishop Ma?" He turned around to see the Arch Bishop was still rooted on the spot without moving. Did he fall unconscious while standing or something?

He shook his shoulder vigorously, bringing him back to reality after calling him a few times.

"Ah, yes…" His voice was shaking in fear.

"Let's go," said Ji Wu and walked forward. The Arch Bishop deeply bowed to Mark with a stuttering apology, "I… I… apologize for… for intruding. I'll… I'll be on… on my way…"

He hurried outside.

Looking at his back, Mark wondered, "What's wrong with him?"

As the horse carriage was traveling towards the Fantang district, which is another commoner neighborhood known for inns and brothels, Ji Wu and the others saw Arch Bishop was shivering a bit while murmuring, "beast… beast… beast…"

"Are you alright?" Ji Wu asked him. "You looked as if you saw some ghost or something."

"It's a beast emperor." Arch Bishop Ma Yinglin finally spoke properly. "That cat in the lands of Lu Zhen, it is a beast emperor, Elder Wu. The appearance of Beast Emperor always brings disaster to the world. I'll have to go back to Western Yan."

"A beast emperor?" Even Ji Cheng couldn't help but pay attention to the matter, "are you sure? I didn't observe it properly but in a single glance, it looked like an ordinary house cat. Maybe, you are mistaken."

"The beast emperors are different from the Beast kings, Lord Ji." Arch Bishop explained to the both of them, "they will hide their aura completely. As I'm in Exalt realm, I can sense its inner aura. It was only at 1-circle but its inner aura is comparable to that of a seven-circle beast king. Moreover, I can also sense its demonic nature."

"It looks like everything about Lu Zhen is a mystery," Huo Fen mumbled as he stared outside.

Back to the store, Mark was on high clouds, staring at the order that he wrote.

1) 200 Panzers

2) 100 P-226 (20 rounds) Semi automatic handguns

3) 1000 magazines (20 rounds)

4) 200,000 bullets (9mm)

5) 100 shotguns

6) 10,000 Shotgun shells (12-gauge)

7) 50,000 machine gun's ammo (7.9mmx57mm)

"Fuck…" Mark cursed out loud as soon as he read the quests. The sleeping cat jumped as if someone stepped on its tail; Allen and Alina glanced at their master; and Chang Bo, who was still in a daze, seeing the enormous profits of the store, pulled back to the reality by Mark's outburst.

He couldn't understand what was wrong with Mark. For once, this owner will be happy, and in the next moment, he'll go into a rage, and after that, he will turn happy, again.

"An upgrade crystal… Goddammit. System, you knew about it and you still recommended it to use it on my ether quality… You moth**fuc**ng cheating system…"

Like Chang Bo thought, Mark was riding in a wave of emotions. Earlier, he was on cloud nine but when he realized how he was duped, he cursed the system out of frustration.

No one knows where the attack came from. For a second, thousands of volts of electricity passed through his entire body, making him helplessly fall onto the floor.

*Thud*

A holographic screen appeared before him as he groaned in pain.

*Ding! The system kept mentioning that profanity language shouldn't be directed at the system. As the host ignored the warning, the system gave a small punishment. Consider it as another warning.

*Ding! The next time, it will be much harsher. So, please be careful about losing control over your speech.

*Ding! The system only recommended it because it is the right choice. As for the upgrade crystal in the quest reward, the system isn't responsible for the host's negligence.

It was the first time Mark was punished by the system.

Mark wanted to curse again but refrained from it.

"Are you okay, Big Brother?" Allen and Alina asked at the same time.

Mark silently went back to his seat as if nothing had happened earlier. The cat titled its head and stared at its master.

Meanwhile, Chang Bo fell into confusion once again. "What the hell was that? Who ambushed the owner? No, the energy usually doesn't work here. So, was that a perhaps a common occurrence?"
