Chapter 105: Chapter 105 - Cleaning Suggestion
[ The Awakening Material that you are searching for is available in the shop ]
[ Light Rock - Awakening Material - Light - Special - Cost (5 Bronze) ]
William looked at the awakening material with happiness as it was the thing he wanted very much. But as he examined it more carefully, he started to think.
\'500 dollars for a single rock, are you kidding me?\'
\'Who the hell will pay so much for a f*cking rock? And if I\'m right, then the system only shows the true price, which means in the real world the price is even higher than what is shown right now.\'
\'That means if something costs 100 dollars in the system shop, then in the real world it might cost 300 or 400 dollars or maybe even more, depending on its ranking.\'
\'So if the Light Rock costs 500 dollars here, then in the real world it may be somewhere around 900 dollars.\'
\'Oh! Yes, it also has its specialty that makes it even more valuable and costly, so it may even go far beyond 1500 or even 3000 dollars.\'
\'That is simply daylight robbery, people.\' William started to get angry
\'Not like it matters much, but still, so much money for such a simple rock. I can only imagine how much it\'s going to cost in the future. I might even have to pour in millions just for the real price.\'
\'Okay, I\'ll come back to this discussion later on, but for now, let\'s see if the other items are in here as well or not.\' William stopped his thought process as he was eager to learn what would happen next.
William first bought the Light Rock, which suddenly popped up in his hands. It was quite small in size, maybe close to 2 to 3 inches, and it was indeed pure white. The white color was so pure that it gave off a strange feel whenever someone looked at it.
William, done with examining the material, placed it beside him and opened up the system shop again as he typed in the next materials he needed.
After waiting for a little while, all of the materials he needed showed up.
[ Light Mana Heart - Awakening Material - Light - Special - Cost (100 Bronze) ]
[ Dark Rock - Awakening Material - Dark - Special - Cost (5 Bronze) ]
[ Dark Mana Heart - Awakening Material - Dark - Special - Cost (100 Bronze) ]
William smiled as he looked at all the items with strange names that he needed for advancing. But what really excited him was the future of the shop.
He figured that if the shop had these materials, then it would certainly have all the other awakening materials he would need in the later levels.
Which in reality, would be very hard to get from search parties, and even if he got them, it would mean paying a huge sum just for searching for them.
And the end price for them... It would bankrupt a bank owner just by paying for the price in many installments. So, yes, he was indeed quite happy as he looked at all the items and bought all of them.
Every single one of them appeared in his hands as he looked at them with interest, but the interest quickly faded as he examined the mana hearts in his hands.
The mana hearts were literally beating in his hands as he held them, and that was not all; there were sticky, gooey liquids around them as well.
Both materials were different from one another as one was slightly acceptable with a light color and also a light feeling to it.
But the dark one… the dark one was something else entirely. William looked at the dark, monstrous-looking heart in fear as he didn\'t know what to do with it.
It creeped him out even more as the heart sometimes kept beating on its own with a heavy beat, making it look like it came straight from a horror movie scene.
William put down all of the materials in one corner of the room, especially the mana hearts, as he felt they might burst open or stop beating if he handled them too quickly.
William left the room but not before locking it tightly and instructing the house system to monitor them with high priority, as he would need them shortly and didn\'t want anything peculiar happening to them.
William then went to where the room of terror had previously been and looked around before asking the leader of the cleaning service, "So, how is the cleaning going?"
The leader of the cleaning service, interrupted so abruptly at his work, was about to curse at who it was but stopped when he saw it was the teenager—or in his case, the boss—who had hired them.
The leader, Gasteria, quickly replaced his angry expression with a fake smile and said, "Yes, it\'s going great, sir. We will be done in some time."
William didn\'t believe what he said at all, as evidenced by the slight facial interaction from before, but he didn\'t comment on it and just replied with a small smile of his own.
"But how long will it take for you guys to finish up?"
Gasteria, looking at William\'s smiley face, couldn\'t tell whether the teenager was mocking him or actually smiling with him, as his face didn\'t give away expressions easily.
But he answered with the professionalism he had acquired over many years as a \'Cleaning Service\' guy.
"That depends."
"On what?"
"On whether you also want to clean other parts of the house or are you just interested in cleaning this room?"
"Of course I want to clean my other rooms, and not just that, but I want you guys to clean the whole villa completely."
"Then I\'m sorry to say, sir, but it will take us a long time to finish the service," Gasteria apologized, with no hint of apology in his tone.
"Wouldn\'t it be better to split your members and let one group clean the house while the other cleans this room?" William was confused by this guy\'s meaning.
"It would be in another case, but yours is a delicate one, as it requires not only cleaning this... \'room\' but also a very big villa with many rooms and high walls that take time to reach."
"So what do you suggest to make this job a little faster?" William asked with a deadpan face, as he kind of knew what the guy was about to say next.
"If you call in a few more members of our service, it would help us and also help you immensely," Gasteria suggested with a real smile.
"Imhmm," William said thoughtfully before finally agreeing, "Alright, call as many people as you want, but make sure they clean this villa as quickly and efficiently as they can."
Gasteria and his team members had bright faces as they heard this and quickly said, "Of course, anything for a VIP customer."
Gasteria brought out his FPhone and called his known members "Guys come over at the place where I am working right now."
"It\'s a big one."
