"Well, we just landed in Star City. Ready for this?" Rip asked Oliver and Ray.
"Yep." Oliver said as he and Ray began to leave when Nate stopped them.
"Wait, I just thought of a little problem with the plan of Oliver going to get the Water Totem." Nate said.
"What might that be?" Oliver asked.
"You're supposed to be out of town with your wife and newborn daughter. I think it'll draw a bit too much attention if you show up at an auction in Star City." Nate pointed out.
"He's got a point." Laurel said.
"So I go alone." Ray said.
"Or, I could send someone else in my place and buy the totem on my behalf. And I think Nate is the perfect person to do it, since as a historian, I'm sure you have quite a collection of relics, people won't question you buying an ancient necklace." Oliver said.
"That's not a bad plan." Nate said.
"Actually, I have a better idea." Constantine said.
"And what might that be?" Oliver asked.
"Ever heard of a glamor spell? I can make you look like Nate, allowing you to attend the auction without arousing suspicion." Constantine said.
"He's right, that is a better idea." Oliver said apologetically to Nate.
"No, it's cool?" Nate said.
"Let's do this." Oliver said and Constantine nodded as he muttered a spell and suddenly, there were two Nates standing in the room.
"Let's do this." Oliver said as he and Ray then headed out of the ship, though Oliver hoped he could use his normal voice to approve Nate using his funds to buy the totem.
After managing to approve everything, Oliver and Ray entered the auction house and checked in.

"Let's do this." Oliver said, trying to get used to Nate's appearance.
"Come on, let's go get seats." Ray said and Oliver nodded as they moved to get seats as the auction began.
They saw several high profile items be sold to other bidders, but so far, there was no sign of the water totem yet and they'd almost reached the end of the auction.
"And, now ladies and gentlemen, I present to you all the item I know several of you have come out to bid on and I've already received a very generous offer for it, but anyways, I present to you all, this authentic sapphire necklace originating from one of the lost tribes of the African nation of Zambezi. Now, this item is said to possess mystical powers, the likes of which the world has never seen." The auctioneer said, believing this to be a bunch of folklore, but Oliver and Ray both knew it was true.
"Shall we start the bidding at say, 500,000 dollars?" the auctioneer asked as people, including Oliver and Ray started bidding on it.
As the price continued rising, more and more people began ducking out of the auction, Ray included, until it was down to just Oliver and a dark haired woman and Oliver knew that no matter how high the price went, with how well Queen Consolidated was doing at the moment, he could easily afford it. For now anyways.
Finally, he managed to outbid his opponent.
"Sold for 15 million dollars to Mr. Nate Heywood." The Auctioneer said and Oliver, wearing Nate's face, smiled.
"Well, did you get it?" Kuasa asked as Oliver and Ray entered the ship's bridge.
"I'll answer that when I look like myself again." Oliver said as he looked over at Constantine, who nodded and lifted the glamor.

"Good, you look like my husband again." Laurel said with a smile.
"So?" Mari asked.
"One Water totem as promised." Oliver said as he held out a silver necklace with a large sapphire embedded in it.
"Nice. That's three down, three to go." Mari said.
"Speaking of, let's head to Detroit so we can make it four. The sooner we get those totems, the sooner we can kill the demon after Jasmine and return to our lives in Star City." Oliver said.

Code Reader Kagami (LitRPG)
Sometimes things happen in this world that we are not in control of. Sometimes we are to a certain degree, and sometimes we are completely in control. However, this is a tale that constantly questions those boundaries. The story follows Kagami, a young programmer, as he winds up in a world almost alien to him. If it were up to him, he would have never visited this world and would rather stay raising his young daughter. Was it through his own actions that he had wound up here? Was it due to several combinations of factors? Or was it something he completely chose. These are questions that constantly haunt Kagami’s mind as he wanders this world and ponders his actions. Unfortunately, the glaring truth of it all refuses to ever look him in the eyes. Each night as he looks up at the night sky, he wonders if the end of this would turn out like the game he made. A tale of Guts and Glory… or would it turn out like he fears, a tale of blood and tears. Regardless of how it turns out, he will one day unveil the truth enshrouding it all. And perhaps in doing so, unveil the fate of his old world, enshrouded by mystery. ___________________________________________________________________________ While this is a typical Isekai started by the infamous truck-kun, the story is most definitely not what is to be taken at face value. I love making tragic twists into these types of stories. For Code Reader Kagami, you'll begin to see a descent into psychological madness. As your hero changes entirely from the moral man he initially was. If you're not a fan of dark aspect stories, this one is not for you. Thank you~
