The Time I Got Reincarnated As An Extra - Chapter 48

Chapter 48: FULLDIVE [4]
****

Entering the shop, Amon quickly headed towards the manager.

Seeing him from a distance, the manager beamed.

“Ah welcome again sir! How may I be of service to you today?” He bowed.

Coming in front of him, the boy smiled warmly.

“Ahh you see, I want to do an anonymous dealing today.” He answered.

This was another perk of the gold membership.

Using this, he could make transactions with HOU that would always be kept from the public.

If they were released, then it would be against their customer privacy policy for the gold members.

The manager nodded, his eyes gleaming with more interest now.

The manager gestured towards a nearby room and led him there.

They entered the room through the metal door, which was different from all the other doors.

Coming inside, Amon found himself in a spacious metal room with black metallic walls on all sides.

In front, there were a couple of couches and seating arrangements with tables between them to discuss.

It was a formal setting. A good one for an anonymous transaction.

Both Amon and the manager settled down on one couch, opposite from each other, and a large table between them.

“Welcome to our anonymous transaction room. The walls around here are made of the toughest materials that have also been enhanced with the [Space] element, thus leading to no sound or mana leakage.” He explained.

“In here, you can trust us completely with your anonymity.”

Nodding, Amon got straight to the point.

“I’m here to sell this time, rather than buying.”

There was a pause for a second but the manager nodded, completely serious now.

“I want to sell mana cores.” He continued.

The man was taken aback for a second since he knew mana cores could also be done in public but quickly composed himself and nodded.

He knew that there must be a reason the man wanted to do it here.

And so, Amon waved his hand, causing all of the 56 small cores and 1 boss core to appear on the large desk.

Immediately, silence ensued in the room as the manager went completely quiet while he looked at him for a reaction.

But he quickly composed himself with a cough in a moment.

It was just a little surprising for him, that was all.

Most people who wanted to sell these many mana cores would go to Locke Market after all.

Amon smiled internally.

The surprise wasn’t done yet.

“Please check the mana quantity and quality of the cores.” He pointed out.

Confused by his words, the manager tilted his head.

He was probably wondering why 1 leaf dungeon cores, which he had identified by their size, would need their mana quality and quantity checked.

Nevertheless, he followed his request and took a mana core in his hand, and started to examine it.

In a moment, his wides went wide with shock.

“T-t-these are 3 leaf dungeon cores….” He said, stammeringly.

Amon nodded.

The major reason why the dungeon was such a large hit for Locke Market wasn’t because of their sheer quantity.

No.

After all, they could have easily gotten this amount of cores with 3 or 4 attempts of 1 leaf dungeons.

It was about the mana quality and quantity of the cores they had obtained from [Scarlet Reverie], which easily compared to one of a 3-leaf core.

It had never been explained how this had happened or what was the reason behind it in the novel.

And nor did Amon care. If he got it, then he took it gratefully. The reason didn’t matter as long as it didn’t affect the plot.

Enveloped in disbelief, the manager quickly set the core aside and took a second one in his hand, examining it as well.

“T-This is a 3-leaf core as well….”

He set the core aside.

“B-b-but how??? The s-size clearly shows it’s a 1-leaf core then how???” He asked himself.

It was a widely known fact that the higher ranked a dungeon was, the rarer it was to find a mana core because of its quality.

But right now, in front of the manager were 56 cores, all comparable to a 3-leaf one.

Amon coughed loudly, bringing back the manager to his senses.

The latter looked at him with a worried glance.

“I-I’m sorry sir but we have never gotten this large amount of high-ranked mana cores before because they are all sold to Locke Market.” He pointed out.

The boy nodded, waiting for him to continue.

The manager took a deep breath.

“Which is why I’m sorry but I’m incapable of handing this transaction. If you still want to do it with us, I’ll have to ask Miss. Athena to handle this transaction if it’s okay with you…”

Waiting for some moments, Amon nodded again.

“It’s alright, I understand. Please inform Miss Athena that I want to perform an anonymous transaction and whenever she is free, you can contact me. I want to do this deal only with this company.” He answered, putting some emphasis on the last line.

The manager nodded eagerly.

“I understand! I’ll get you in touch with her as soon as possible.”

Nodding again, he stood up.

“I guess my business is done here.”

He shook hands with the manager and then left the shop with a smile on his face.

His plan had worked perfectly.

Coming back to his apartment, Amon saw that his sister still wasn’t back yet

Heading into the shower, he quickly changed into some casual clothes.

After 20 minutes, he came out and headed straight for the kitchen, making some dinner for both himself and his sister.

After being done, he stored hers in the fridge and quickly devoured it, feeling better that he was saved from Katherine’s cooking.

After being done, he was about to discuss his [Void] element with Zephyra when suddenly his watch vibrated.

DING!

He quickly looked at his watch.

It was Charlotte.

[Charlotte: Greetings! I’m sorry to disturb you but if you aren’t busy at the moment, would you like to discuss the strategies for the FULLDIVE with me?]

Looking at the message, he sighed, not surprised at this happening.

But he wasn’t against the idea. He wanted to discuss some strategies with her since she was much more experienced than him.

Even though he was an extra in this novel, it wasn’t like he was going to hold back his power in all cases.

He wanted to win his first match.

Especially, since he was against Michael.

He wanted to see how his power would fare against his at the current stage.

How an extra would fare against the main character of the novel.
