Chapter 111: Chapter 111 - Items
Right in front of the Villa of the Golden Arey Society.
A nervous cab driver finally leaves with his car in a blazing fury like he wanted to avoid the people who he had dropped a while ago.
The three beings that had gotten out of the cab and looked at the villa in front of them as the hooded person from before spoke.
"This is our destination." He looked at the humongous bald man beside him and asked "Are you ready?"
The Bald man being Delmar himself said "Of course, why wouldn't I be? It's not like arriving. I'm arriving at the prom floor with my date."
"So, what you're telling me is that you were afraid to go to the prom with your date." The hooded man smirked at the mishap of Delmar.
Delmar in trying to defend himself said "Hah! Jokes on you. I didn't go to those boring prom dates."
"So… you didn't get a date then hah." The hooded man said and came closer to him as he patted his hand and said "It's alright man I feel you."
The hooded man said and left without wanting to hear any kind of retort from the bald man as Delmar also didn't say anything and he walked inside the villa behind him while Clawdia too walked inside with her eyes always focusing on the bald man.
"Alright man, why don't you sit for a moment while I try to put the food in the fridge."
"Didn't you say those were for discretion." Delmar said with a deadpan look in his eyes.
"Yes I did but that doesn't mean I am going to throw away perfectly good food now, am I." The hooded man didn't have any shame on him as he said that and left the room.
Delmar sat on the sofa in a comfortable position as he looked at many places in the hallway with a knowledgeable glint in his eyes while the huge cat looked at him from the front without hiding that fact.
After a while, The Hooded Man came back and he sat upon the sofa quite opposite of Delmar and said with a serious tone "Well, now that we are finally here, Delmar you can ask me whatever you want."
Delmar leaned back on the couch as he asked the question he wanted the answer to from the start.
"Who are you?"
The hooded man for a second was stumped before he slapped his own forehead shocking Delmar then he said "Oh Shit! I forgot to reintroduce myself, didn't I?"
The hooded man got up from the sofa and he took off his hood that hid most of his figure. Delmar saw him do that but did not stop him.
His figure was revealed as from where he felt like a guy or an adult once now looked to be a teenager. His height was frighteningly close to 7 feet standing at 6.11 feet, only a little smaller than the bald man himself.
He had black hair that went to only complement his pure white features that made his body even more graceful with his small muscles that showed vigor for someone of his age.
Both of his eyes had golden irises that seemed otherworldly to anyone who looked at them.
After showing off his figure, William asked Delmar "Well… now you recognize me."
Delmar was slightly confused because he felt like he saw this boy somewhere but could not recall him "You look awfully familiar. Do I know you from somewhere?"
William looked at Delmar with a nonchalant look as he said "Dude it's me, William."
Delmar looked carefully and he had to say that the kid in front of him looked similar to the one from before but not very much so he didn't believe it.
"Don't bulls*it me, I know the brats face clearly and even though you guys look quite similar, you clearly are not that brat."
"...Well then how am I going to prove myself to them?" William asked, confused at the situation that he created himself.
"Why don't you tell me something that the kid experienced with me, that he wouldn't tell anyone."
"Something that I experienced that I wouldn't tell anyone, huh." William thought for a moment before he said.
"Delmar's Beans."
Delmar was shocked for a second as he realized that the teenager in front of him really was the brat from before.
Normally he wouldn't have believed him just from hearing the password but because they had a prior moment where Delmar was about to shoot the kid until the kid said the passwords. The passwords being the same words the teenager in front of him uttered a moment ago.
"..." Delmar looked at the kid and didn't know what to say to him.
"F*ck kid… How the hell did you do it?"
"I was using a… 'Item'." William made it up as he said to Delmar.
Delmar nodded, clearly believing his lie.
Because the 'Item' William was talking about wasn't just one particular one. The 'Item' he talked about was the items that had strange and amazingly strong abilities to do almost anything.
Some of them even had the power to defy the rules of physics to such a degree that it isn't even possible to think of such a matter even in your imaginations.
And all of them had different features and abilities that made them very versatile and looked upon by everyone.
Elemental Bending, Shapeshifting, Gravity Manipulation, Atomic Explosion, Amazing Healing abilities and anything you could think of was available to the 'Items' but only to one of them.
Each had a different ability than the other. Even if some of their abilities override one another, it would still be a little different if one were to research thoroughly about them.
But what made them truly so powerful were that they had abilities that would permanently affect someone if that said person were to use that 'Item' for a prolonged time.
So if one person were to wear an 'Item' that would give them increased regenerating ability then as time passes his own body will start to accumulate a skill close to that.
Which makes them so sought after by everyone and even the cost of one that has only a meager ability will still cost in the thousands or even in the hundreds of thousands or more.
But even then if one were to wear an 'Item' that had too high of an ability and if that ability started to accumulate in a body that couldn't hold on to its power then of course something very bad would occur on him.
If the effects were bad enough then one might even lose his cultivation or his mana levels and if it was even worse then they might even lose their lives.
This is why even if the 'Items' were very precious for everyone they still were cautious about their usage.
So this was the simple reason why Delmar believed William without questioning him anything about it as he knew that a matter of an 'Item' is always secretive to everybody.
Delmar asked him with a heavy tone as he leaned closer to him.
"So… What's my REAL job going to be?"
"I want you to buy everything."
