Infinite System Inheritor Return From The Abyss

Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Meeting him

As Seojun entered the jewelry shop, he was greeted by a friendly staff member. "Hello! Can I help you find something special today?" the staff member asked.

"I'm looking for a necklace for my mom," Seojun replied, glancing around at the sparkling displays.

The staff member led him to a section filled with beautiful necklaces. "How about this one?" they said, showing him a stunning silver necklace with a delicate pendant.

Seojun admired the necklace but didn't feel it was right. "It's pretty, but I don't think it's what I'm looking for," he said, shaking his head.

They moved to another display. "What about this one? It has a beautiful blue gemstone," the staff member suggested, holding up a necklace with a deep blue pendant that sparkled in the light.

Seojun squinted at it. "It's nice, but it doesn't feel like something my mom would wear," he replied, feeling a little frustrated.

He turned to his system, hoping for some guidance. "What should I give to Mom?" he asked in his mind.

[It's important to choose something meaningful, Host. Maybe think about what she likes or what would remind her of you,]

"Yeah, but what does she really like? I know she loves flowers, but how do I turn that into jewelry?" Seojun pondered, rubbing his chin.

[Perhaps a floral design or a necklace that has a flower motif would work well. Something that symbolizes your bond,] the system advised.

Seojun took a deep breath and approached the staff member again. "Do you have any necklaces with a floral design? Something that represents love or family?"

The staff member smiled and nodded. "Yes! Let me show you some options." They led Seojun to a different section of the shop, where several beautiful necklaces with floral patterns hung.

As they browsed through the selections, Seojun felt a sense of excitement.

"This one looks good," he said, pointing to a lovely necklace with a small silver flower pendant surrounded by tiny gemstones.

"This is a great choice! It's elegant and meaningful," the staff member said.

Seojun held the necklace he had chosen for his mom, but something shiny caught his eye. He carefully set the necklace down and walked over to the other display.

"This" he said, admiring a beautiful necklace with intricate designs and shimmering gemstones.

The staff member smiled. "This piece is part of a special collection from the Mystic Union. The guildmaster, Jonathan Hamilton creates jewelry that even non-awakened people can wear," she explained.

Seojun remembered reading about the Mystic Union and how the number one blacksmith had recently opened a branch in Korea.

Seojun's gaze shifted to a stunning silver bracelet with flowery curves. "What about this one?" he asked, pointing to the bracelet.

"Let me get that for you!" the staff member replied and carefully took the bracelet out of the display case.

As they handed it to him, Seojun was amazed by its beauty. The silver glinted in the light, and the flower designs were detailed and delicate. He could already imagine how much his mom would love it and activated his appraisal skill.

Status: Safe for non-awakened individuals.

Seojun smiled, The staff went closer to him

The staff member nodded, clearly impressed with the bracelet's attributes. "Mr. Jonathan Hamilton designs his jewelry with special enhancements. This bracelet will help guard against some ailments and weaker magic attacks, making it a perfect gift for someone you care about."

"I'm taking this,"

As the staff member carefully wrapped the bracelet, Seojun's heart swelled with excitement. He could already picture his mom's face lighting up when she received it.

As Seojun was waiting, a man with black hair and dressed in a sleek black suit spoke beside him. The man looked in his 30s and had a strong aura about him.

"Good choice," the man said, a smile on his face. "Your girlfriend will surely love it."

Seojun raised an eyebrow, a bit taken aback. "It's for my mom," he replied, realizing that the man probably mistook his intention.

The man chuckled, his eyes twinkling with warmth. "Well, then she's lucky to have a son like you," he said genuinely. He then turned to the staff member and said,

"Excuse me, miss, I'm taking this," pointing at an elegant watch displayed nearby.

The staff quickly retrieved the watch and began wrapping it carefully. The man smiled again. "I'm giving this to someone dear to my wife," he explained, his tone affectionate.

For some reason, Seojun felt an unexpected comfort in the man's presence. There was something reassuring about him that made Seojun feel at ease, as if they shared a connection that went beyond words.

As the staff member handed Seojun his package, he noticed the two ladies at the counter whispering among themselves.

"Omg! He's so hot! I wonder where he live?"

"Kay is so lucky she serve him! that should be me!"

"But look at the man beside him, He's my dream sugar daddy!"

They kept glancing at both him and the man in the suit, their eyes wide with admiration.

The man seemed to sense the attention and chuckled lightly, as if amused by the reactions around him. He caught Seojun's gaze and gave a friendly nod.

"Have a great day, young man. Take care of your mom," he said before turning to leave with his newly wrapped watch.

Seojun smiled back, feeling a bit inspired by the stranger's kindness. He stepped outside the shop, clutching the bracelet tightly, ready to make his way home.

After the man left, Seojun hopped into a taxi to head home. The ride was smooth, and he couldn't help but smile as he thought about the beautiful bracelet he had picked out for his mom. A few minutes later, they arrived at his house.

As he got out of the taxi, Seojun noticed a sleek black car parked beside their house. It looked expensive and caught his attention immediately.

"Looks like Lady Seoyang's boyfriend is big time," his system commented, a hint of surprise in its voice.

Seojun raised an eyebrow at the system's tone. "Are you jealous?" he teased.

"No! I'm not jealous, Host" the system quickly denied, almost sounding defensive.

Seojun chuckled, shaking his head as he retrieved the groceries from his inventory. "Relax, Your so obvious."

He carried the groceries inside and set them on the kitchen counter. "Mom! I'm back!" he called out, eager to see her reaction when he presented the bracelet.

A moment later, Seoyang appeared from the living room, a smile on her face. "Welcome back, Seojun! How was your shopping?"

"It was good, I got something for you," he said, trying to keep the excitement in his voice under control.

Seoyang's eyes widened with curiosity. "What is it?"

"You'll see," he replied playfully, enjoying the suspense.

As Seojun was about to reveal the bracelet, suddenly, a man stepped out of the bathroom. He had a surprised look on his face when he saw Seojun.

The system chimed in with a teasing tone. [Oh, what a coincidence! The man earlier was John. That only means the 'wife' he was talking about is Lady Seoyang. Tsk, how bold.]

Seojun raised an eyebrow, slightly confused. 'Isn't this guy had white hair?'

Seoyang noticed the unusual behavior between Seojun and John. She quickly took the groceries from Seojun's hands and smiled nervously.

"W-What about we sit down first?" she suggested, trying to break the tension.

She helped Seojun to sit on the sofa, while John took a seat at the end. Seoyang seemed a bit anxious, glancing back and forth between the two men.
