Magic Shop System Chapter 34
Advertisement
As the Big One applied the potion, a soothing and comfortable and merry feeling spread inside Fenon and others. The blood stopped oozing out of their wounds. People noticing this scene left stunned. Who could have thought that the potion would be so potent and capable of stopping the bleeding of such nasty wounds?
Kadyn saw their reaction, and an idea popped into his cunning head. "Cough~," he attracted everyone's attention. Then proceeded. "As you can see, the effect of the potion. It's amazing, isn't it?
"I don't think many places sell such potions. Even if they did, everyone could not purchase them. This potion that Fatty just used is the most inferior type in my shop. I have even higher grade potions."
"Furthermore...cough~" he eyed Fenon and again turned towards the crowd. "Due to the special condition, I have raised the price of the potion just now. For other people it won't cost that much. This potion I have sold would at most cost 2000 dollars. Not bad, heh?"
"You damn bastard!" Fenon couldn't hold himself and cursed. "You took so much money and you still gave me the lowest grade potion?!"
Kadyn ignored fuming Fenon and continued to promote his potion as this was an ideal time. Many people had seen its effect with their own eyes. One needs to hit the iron while its hot.
"Umm, what is the price of higher potions?" someone inquired with a curious face.
"5000 for intermediate and 10000 for high grade Soothing Drop. I assure you that you won't be disappointed. You've seen the effect of the lowest grade Soothing Drop, so you can imagine that others will be only better." Kady bowed towards everyone as he explained.
Fenon clenched his fist until his knuckles started to make a sound and turned red. How dare he use him as a dummy to promote his product?! He had the urge to dash and strangle the bastard alive.

However, when he thought about the bomb, he shivered in cold sweat and swallowed all the anger and indignance. If it wasn't for the defensive artifact he wore—for which his father paid a massive fortune—he would have blasted alongside the bomb. His back drenched in perspiration at the possibility.
"Two low grade Soothing Drop." No one knew who spoke, but the voice was a kind of trigger as everyone rushed towards Kadyn like a horde of vicious beasts.
"Five low grade Soothing Drop."
"Two low grades and two intermediate Soothing Drop…"
Kadyn gaped at everyone with a flabbergasted look. Although he had predicted that it would help his business to grow, he never thought that so many people would be ready to pay such an extensive amount of money—he was unaware of how precious potions in Avibria City were. Only Upper Town had potion makers. They would sell their potions to only those powerful families or organisations to gain their favour. No one would bother with peasants in Lower Town.
Even with money they couldn't purchase. On the other hand, Kadyn's potion was really too amazing as they had never seen—or heard—about such a healing potion before that could heal terrible wounds in a matter of minutes as it did just now. Although Fenon wasn't healed completely—one had to know that he just used the lowest grade potion. It was almost a life saving treasure.
"Calm Down, everyone!" Kadyn was almost overwhelmed by the rush, but he calmed quickly and said. "We have enough potions for everyone. If we run out of stock, we will just brew more. So, please be patient."
"Are you speaking the truth?" someone asked after some hesitation. "Would you trade your potions to those powerful families in the Upper Town and stop selling us in the future?"

Many others looked at Kadyn. They knew that people in the Upper Town monopolised the market of potions and artefacts, etc. They might not like it if Kadyn starts doing his business here. It worried 'em that Kadyn might stop trading potions when those people come to knock his doors.
Kadyn looked at their expectant yet anxious faces and said. "Of course I will sell to them."
Everyone became disappointed at his words. They should have known that it would happen, but they still had little hope. Now however.... Who would be stupid enough to reject the offer of someone from Upper Town. Almost all of them had connections with the Magic Association. It would be a terrible mistake to antagonise them.
"However…" As they thought the matter had come to an end. Kadyn said, looking around him at the curious faces of the people. "I won't stop selling others."
His words made everyone's eyes shine in anticipation. Then someone asked. "But… but, they won't let you sell. Otherwise we would be able to buy something that they think should be available for people with status and peasants aren't worthy."
Kadyn did not know about such a thing, but he felt irritated at such a stupid thinking. He was already dissatisfied with authorities of the Avibria City when no one helped regarding his mother's disappearance. "Everyone can purchase from my shop." He gritted his teeth and declared.
"Then…"
"To me, it doesn't matter if you're some big shot or a poor beggar. If you have enough money, I will sell you potions or anything my shop has to offer. I won't stop selling in the Lower Town just because someone doesn't want me to and vice versa. It's my choice to whom I sell. No one can stop, or I'll blast them—Lower Town, or Upper Town—Don't try me."
His gaze fell on the people, intimidating them to no end. They looked at Fenon's ragged and miserable and bloody condition and shivered. No one dared to make a noise.
"Alright, come tomorrow," Kadyn said. "We won't sell anything today."
Damn, I want to piss! Only Kadyn knew how terribly his heart was throbbing inside his chest. Today he had really gone too far on his bluffing. What other option did he have? If Fenon knew that he had no bombs left, he would end miserably.
Furthermore, after hearing others, he realised that many others would come after this incident. If he was nobody without any power, won't they play him to death like a fool? However, now they would be vigilant all the time. Afraid that he might throw a bomb on them anytime.
He would accept the title of maniac gladly. If he could frighten those people away.
"Heh? What is happening here?' a shocked voice came from behind Kadyn. Without turning he knew who it was—"What happened to you, Fenon?!"
Jenna almost screamed when she found Big One was standing in the rubble, supporting Fenon by his shoulders—she scurried towards Fenon and his companions and eyed their terrible condition in utter speechlessness.
Behind her, others also walked out of the Meditation Room with dumb faces. The scene in front of them had completely changed. It looked as if some kind of war had happened.

Remorse
I have killed many people over my long life. Men, women, children. None have escaped the shadows that I control. It was only one tiny mistake that I made that changed my life forever. I underestimated her, and I would pay for my hubris. “For every death you have given, you will feel their pain.” What? “For every person you have killed, you will feel regret.” Wait, wait… “For every murder you have commited, you will know what you have done.” I don’t think this is going to be pretty. The power leaves her voice as she continues in a softer tone. “I will give you back what you have lost, you will feel empathy again.” Her power releases me and I fall to the ground. Diana. That was her name. I will remember it. ******** This story starts out somewhat dark, but it will lighten up after the first chapter. I tend to not enjoy the psychological tag too much since stories with the tag tend to be a little insane for my liking, but I feel that I would be remiss not putting it on this story, since a lot of it is about the psychology of the main character. All the content warnings are checked since I want to leave my options open to me for the future. I hope you enjoy.
