“Hey, do you even have eyes? Can’t you see that I’m behind you?” The woman said in disdain, “Look at you, you’ve stepped on my shoes and dirtied them.”
Audrey hesitated and took two steps to the side. “Sorry, it was mainly because there were too many people here. Someone pushed me, causing me to lose my footing. That’s why I stepped on you.”
“Tsk.” Saroma snorted coldly and glanced at Audrey’s attire from top to bottom.
“Since you can’t afford to buy anything, then don’t wander around here. I’m telling you, this kind of place isn’t suitable for you at all. The grocery store next door is where you belong,” Saroma said.
Audrey pursed her lips and did not answer.. Instead, she continued to choose the weapon she liked.
Although she hated this sudden hostility, Audrey did not want to cause trouble here. If her ident.i.ty was exposed, trouble would eventually come back to her.
Audrey changed her position and looked carefully at the weapons on the wall.
When choosing a weapon, not only did one need to look at the forging technique of the weapon and the number of demon cores embedded on it, the most important thing was whether the aura it emitted was the same as her own.
Because there was a saying that when a person chose a weapon, it was as if they were choosing a partner. Only when the two had the same mind would they truly become one. Only then would they truly become one, perfectly compatible.
She had her eyes set on a long sword. It was embedded with a high-grade demon core. Even the body of the sword was made of black iron. Under the golden light, it shone brilliantly. One could imagine just how hard this long sword was, moreover, the aura it emitted was extremely terrifying. If it was an ordinary person, they would have been shocked the moment they saw the sword.
Audrey raised her hand gently and touched the hilt of the sword.
The moment the two of them touched, the sword seemed to emit a buzzing sound. This was the legendary resonance.
Audrey controlled the excitement in her heart and glanced at the price marked below. Her heart instantly turned cold.
This sword cost 100,000 gold coins. The dagger just now cost less than 20,000 gold coins, and she already felt that it was ridiculous. It actually cost 100,000 gold coins?
Although Audrey had a lot of money after going to the auction house two days ago, she still could not be ruthless when it came to such an expensive weapon.
The waiter in charge of maintaining order glanced at Audrey and reached out his hand to block in front of her with some disdain.
“I’m sorry, sir. If you don’t buy from us, you’re not allowed to touch it because it will contaminate the weapon’s aura.” The man’s tone was very casual when he said this. It was obvious that… he did not take Audrey to heart.
Audrey was puzzled. She looked around and found that many people had taken out their weapons from the wall and waved them in the air to try to feel them.
Why did the person in front of her not stop them? Instead, he had come to warn her with just a slight touch.
How strange, Audrey thought to herself.
As if he had noticed Audrey’s gaze, Boris said disdainfully.
“They are all our distinguished guests here. Forget about taking them down, it doesn’t matter even if they are waved a few times. You should know the difference between an ordinary person and a distinguished guest, right?”
“If I remember correctly, this place advocates equality for everyone, right?” Audrey had probably guessed why she was discriminated against.
It was because her clothes today were too plain, the kind that could not be found even in a crowd.
And it was because of this that she was looked down upon.
Boris frowned in disdain. “What’s equality for everyone? Can you afford it? If you can’t, hurry up and get out. This place isn’t for sightseeing.”
Audrey pursed her lips. Before she could speak, a slender hand appeared beside her.
“I think this sword isn’t bad. It suits my taste. Since that’s the case, I’ll come down.” Saroma had appeared beside her at some point in time, and her eyes were filled with pampering.
Upon hearing this, Boris’ expression immediately changed from disdain to antic.i.p.ation. “You’re here? Why don’t I take it down for you to see if it suits your taste?”
“If I remember correctly, this sword was the first sword I took a liking to,” Audrey said as she looked up at Saroma, “don’t you know what it means to come first and come later?”
The brim of her hat was lifted slightly, revealing her beautiful azure eyes. Boris was startled when he met that gaze.
Such a gaze… is it really something that an ordinary person can have?
She hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she was still certain that the person in front of her had a slightly different aura.
“You must be joking. It’s as if you have the money to buy it. You should know that this sword is enough to cover the living expenses of your entire family for several lifetimes. If you can afford it, I’ll buy the entire store,” Boris raised his chin and said directly.
How foolish of him to think of swearing such an oath to me.
Audrey sneered and raised her hand to take down the long sword. The mountain of gold coins scattered on the ground, forming a small mountain. The crisp sound stunned everyone present.
“Come, buy it,” Audrey said, “I want to see if you really mean what you say.”
