Chapter 120

Lucy didn't waste time contemplating the displayed items . There were some exclusive and good-looking rings or diamonds but none of them caught her interest as she had countless ones like them if not better in her storage .

Arthur possessed thousands and thousands of people, he wasn't too interested in their storages as they were weak so it's unlikely they had any legendary weapon but Lucy was fond of checking the storage rings and taking all their treasures . It was her small hobby that she never missed a storage ring a victim wore .

It could be said that her fortune was literally priceless, the mountains of gold and useless things for her were everywhere in the storage, especially in Arthur's since his storage ring was special .

She liked collecting the treasures not because of the gold or diamonds but for the weapons, armors and all the weird stuff . Although her storage wasn't that big compared to Arthur, she still had hundreds of rings inside her main one and each had a specific thing .

Lucy's goal in coming here was clear, she wanted money, not the kind used on Astria but the one used on Earth . With just the gold Arthur gave her, she could easily become a millionaire if not richer but the problem was; Would the country or this shop more precisely be able to give her the value of the gold she currently had?

She was not stupid enough to show all of her gold and even if she did, the shop would be destroyed by it, literally . For now, taking one or two diamonds would be enough, she didn't need that much money, just enough to buy a normal house in Soul .

"Dear customer, please tell me if you are looking for anything specific, our shop has any kind of jewelry and even rare pendants . "

The ugly employee arrived next to Lucy and Delia who was behind her . No matter how much he tried to put up a friendly smile, it still looked disgusting as he originally looked way ugly with a big deformed nose and some broken teeth .

Lucy didn't judge people based on their appearances but she caught him gazing at them somewhat lustfully when they just entered the building, fortunately, she noticed that or else she would have thought he was just ugly but a kind person .

As it is the job of the employees here, they have to appeal to the customers, especially the special ones and Gun was trying his best to do that .

Seeing the appearance of the new customers, he didn't miss the opportunity and walked next to them and respectfully said that but to his surprise, Lucy didn't as much as give the displayed goods a single glance .

"I want to sell things . "

Lucy was able to talk Korean but her accent was a bit weird and she would stutter sometimes as it was completely different from the one used in Astria or even the Underworld .

Gun was not very pleased with what heard as customers who come to buy or to sell in two different categories . He didn't hate or dislike Lucy for what she said, he just felt disappointed for he expected to sell expensive things to these two pretty ladies .

This shop mainly sold and there was rarely any person who comes to sell if some come, they would show a fake gold ring or show a bronze ring and yells 'It's a magic ring!' .

This is a famous shop was this rule of buying good jewelry was just for show, this happening maybe occurred one or twice at most in a year's time .

If people wanted to sell gold or jewelry, they should just go to a gold bank or a normal jewelry store and not come here to show some lowly rings or fake gold .

While trying to maintain his happy mood but failing to do so, Gun still nodded to Lucy and replied

"Of course of course, what would you like to sell?"

With an expressionless face, Lucy took out a fist-sized purple diamond that had a breathtaking luster inside it . Its appearance looked alluring and by no means did it look fake, the sudden appearance of the diamond surprised Gun who was expecting just a gold ring or some casual thing .

The lady was special but taking out a diamond out of nowhere and a fist-sized one would surprise anyone .

"T,Th--this is?"

It was as clear as the sun that the object she took out was a purple diamond yet the employee still asked which made Lucy frown . Such is just one of countless she had but it didn't have a great value compared to the nail-sized but special ones, the reason she took out this was because she thought it'll fetch her a good price because its appearance would draw anyone and attract their greed and attention .

It took her a second to think of the needed words than with the usual weird accent, she retorted while still frowning

"It's a diamond . Are you going to buy or not?"

Lucy was not attracted to this store and on Earth, there were countless of them, being famous is not something that she cared about . Moreover, she didn't want to play games or just stand there and watch their surprise .

Gun was not able to react as he couldn't make that decision, he was not a professional to check if the thing is real or not and even he was, he can't put an exact value for it, just its size was enough to raise the price by at least ten times .

Just as he was going to call the store's manager, an old but unhappy voice rang out in the shop .

"It's a fake . "

The origin of the voice was a man in his 50's, he wore casual work clothes and looked at the purple diamond for sometime before he continued talking with the old woman from before . He held a nice-looking necklace in his hand and showed the small but shiny diamonds around it to the woman on his right .

"Seriously, why are we sinking so low just for you to trade some random diamonds?"

Delia just followed Lucy because she was ordered to and even Arthur repeatedly warned her to protect his wife and daughter when they were in the cave .

She didn't pay attention when coming here as her mind was troubled about the loss of a wing and her weakening . What she just said was transmitted telepathically inside Lucy's head so only she could hear it .

Lucy ignored Delia and stared coldly at the man who just talked, she displeased and in a bad mood from the start due to missing Arthur and having to waste time doing this and hearing that a priceless diamond in this world is called fake triggered her . If it were in Astria, she would have at least crippled him if not mercilessly killed .

She naturally loathed men except for Arthur and liars above all were bad from her point of view . To begin with, she was never a kind person and killing is a casual thing in high-Realms, even in Astria but it appears that such thing is prohibited in this world . There was a strict law and even hurting a person is punishable . She came to learn this when she saw a young woman get assaulted by hoodlums but quickly rescued by blue-clothed men with special long black sticks that emitted a weak intensity of lightning . That man was dragged out into a car and escorted somewhere .

Without speaking a word, Lucy stored back the diamond without minding Gun's dumbstruck look as he could not believe that the diamond disappeared into thin air, for a second he thought that he was definitely hallucinating and thought back to the drugs he tried last night at the bar .

On the right side of Lucy was a sturdy wooden table of high quality, it was the reception desk . There was some papers on it and a pen but nothing besides that . Lucy stretched her hand toward it and in less than 10 seconds, a lot of small-sized diamonds appeared on the table .

"How about this?"

Lucy showed a small-sized and transparent diamond to the old man whilst speaking with cold and chilling tone, it was clear she was unhappy .

The thing is, diamonds or gold are usually mistaken for fake ones and unless one is professional or use a special material, they can ascertain if it's real or fake but for someone like the manager, who was experienced with diamonds and such, he immediately knew that the small diamond she just showed him is genuine .

He previously stated that the fist-sized diamond is purple and he wasn't lying, it's just that that kind of diamond is unheard of on Earth, perhaps it never appeared so for him, despite the shining and alluring appearance, it looked fake .

Before the man could speak or react, Lucy picked another diamond a bit bigger in size and showed him again

"Or this?"

This process was done a few time until the man was left speechless . This time, Lucy purposely chose diamonds that were made from the same material as the ones displayed on this store so there is no way he could say they are fake . She just wanted to smack his face for what he said .

"Are they all fake?"

A dozen diamonds were put on the reception desk, all the customers looked at them with disbelief, they didn't know if they were real or not but such a big amount of diamonds if not common, unless one had a special background, they couldn't just take them out so their only guess was that it was fake but the old man thought the total opposite . His mouth was half-open and he completely forgot about the old woman next to him .

"*cough* Ehm . . . . *cough* These are real . "

Lucy didn't bother with him after hearing that, the diamonds were collected in a split second and disappeared into her sleeve . After a final snort, she turned around and left the store with Delia, who couldn't be happier after leaving such a boring place . Gods spend most of their time cultivating in a peaceful room, some are more lively but not to the point of going out of their way to exchange gold for money in a lower-Realm .

The old man was not able to react in time and by the time he and snapped out of it, the ringing sound of the material that he put rang in his ears and all he could see was the fading figures of the two ladies .

What depressed him even more was that the old woman he was trying to persuade a second ago also left the shop in a hurry, maybe she was angry he ignored her a second ago but if so then her reaction was too extreme as he only ignored her a for a few seconds, it's not a big deal, at least to him .

While trying to follow the two ladies, the old woman who was wearing expensive but good-looking noble clothes called for Delia and Lucy with an anxious voice

"Wait please . "

Lucy was angry on the shop manager but she didn't have any negative feelings toward the woman, she just regarded her as a normal citizen and ignored her when she saw her at the shop but the woman called for her, she turned around to respond .

If it was a man, maybe she would have ignored him as his intentions are clear but what about this lady? She couldn't be thinking of robbing her, right? It's practically impossible with that old body of hers .

Seeing that Lucy turned around to face her and stopped walking, Lady Sinyu was elated . Her eyes were sharp and she was a fan of jewelry, she collected lots of them and one look at the diamonds was enough for her to ascertain her guess . She didn't see the purple diamond as her back was facing Lucy when it was shown but she didn't miss the other ones and she was immediately interested by them .

"Thank you for waiting . I'm Fan Sinyu, they call me Lady Sinyu . I saw your diamonds and I must say that I'm interested in them, how about it, are you still willing to sell some of them?"

Looking at the respectful and excited voice of Lady Sinyu coupled with the small bow she performed and her expensive clothes, Lucy knew she had a respectable and high status or else she would not go around searching for expensive jewelry .

"If you propose a fair price, I'm willing to sell all of them . "

Sinyu's old eyes flashed for a second when she heard that, she thought Lucy showed those diamonds only to prove the manager was wrong but it didn't appear to be the case .

"If that's the case then why don't we go to a quiet place to discuss this?"

In response to the old woman, Lucy nodded and followed her . Soon the three entered a white Bentley Mulsanne grand limousine, it was a luxurious and eye-catching car .

Lady Sinyu sat at the opposite side of Delia and Lucy and was surprised to see their beauty, previously she was to engrossed into the diamonds that she didn't focus much but now that she had a look, she was stunned .

Delia was still as bored as ever and wanted to end things quickly but it didn't appear to be the case . The good thing was that the car was too comfortable, so she layed there and crossed her arms which made her two snowballs jiggle a bit to the point of almost exploding out of her clothes as they were too tight for some odd reason .

Suddenly, as if she remembered an insignificant but had to be said thing, she transmitted to Lucy a message .

'I just can't understand why would you waste time on this for those useless money bills . I can create them easily you know . . . . '
