The mont Danny realized what he had just said, Michael knew that he fucked up.
'How am I going to explain that now?'
Michael opened his mouth, but he closed it just a mont later. He didn't want to tell Danny about the Untad Jungle because his brother would worry more than necessary.
Danny could only sigh deeply upon seeing that Michael was reluctant to speak up. He looked at Michael once again and scanned him from head to toe.
Michael was clearly unscathed and doing well. It worried him that Michael spoke so lightly about fighting Tier-1 Monsters, but it was not as if he could do sothing against it. His little brother was just as stubborn as himself.
"No matter what happens, tell when things go south…please," Danny said in a low voice. He grit his teeth and clenched his fists, "I don't want anything to happen to you. You're the last…"
Danny began but trailed off as the last words died in his throat. He couldn't get himself to say them out loud. But that was not necessary, because Michael understood what Danny wanted to say.
Their parents had never been there for them. After 'that' happened, they just disappeared, leaving a house and so monthly allowance for the brothers.
"I understand. Don't worry, I am giving my best to survive," Michael reassured his brother before he added a little bit more seriously, "But we should go to the House of Witchery now. I need to sell a bunch of items and buy even more!"
Michael went ahead while Danny's gaze lingered on his brother. He could only shake his head before he rushed behind his brother.
"The Market of Olympus has a higher rating than the House of Witchery. Why don't we go there instead? I am getting good prices for the goods I sell my goods there every ti!" Danny proposed but Michael shook his head.
"I get a special price from the House of Witchery. The Market of Olympus won't give such prices to ordinary custors. I looked at the buy and sell ratio of most shops and did so calculations. The House of Witchery is the best with the benefits I get."
"Benefits? Why would you get benefits from the House of Witchery?" Danny asked, but Michael only offered a smug smile and a shrug.
He didn't answer his brother even after Danny asked for the fifth ti. Michael wanted to show off the golden Bartholow mbership card when the timing was right.
They entered the shop less than ten minutes later. So of the staff mbers rembered Michael, and they imdiately greeted him with a bow. Michael didn't expect this kind of special treatnt, but it made him feel good since his brother was witnessing everything.
He had a hard ti staying calm as he approached the Witchery Bazaar. Whether it was a coincidence or destiny, the sa young man from two days ago had a shift at the Witchery Bazaar.
He rushed over to Michael and bowed deeply to him the mont he saw him.
"You're already back, Sir. How can I help you? Do you want to sell new goods again?" The young man asked in an overly polite voice.
Michael was unable to hold back his smile anymore as he glanced over to Danny. anwhile, his brother could only stare at the strange situation with widened eyes.
"I ca back to sell so goods, yes. But I have a lot more than last ti, and I'm not sure if you can appraise them fast enough to make sure that their quality won't deteriorate when I take them out after a long ti," Michael said while continuing to smile.
Most of his goods had been stored in the warehouse for a while. The preservation enchantnt array was exceptional, but it was not a perfect solution. The quality of so goods had deteriorated a little, though they had not gone bad. Nothing was spoiled.
"No problem. I will call over a few more staff mbers to help . That's no problem, at all, Sir!" The young staff mber said as he left the brothers at the counter.
He rushed over to his colleagues and brought so of them over the next minute. Afterward, he led Michael to the appraisal room.
"Will your friend over there co with us, Sir?" The young staff mber asked while looking at Danny after he gave a quick bow in his direction.
"That's allowed?" Danny asked, dumbfounded.
He thought that it was a custom to not allow anybody to enter the appraisal room except for the seller and the required staff.
"Of course, not. Sir can bring as many people inside the appraisal room as he desires!" The young man said as if it was perfectly normal. The other staff mbers nodded their heads in agreent as well.
Danny turned to Michael and frowned deeply.
His eyes seed to scream 'What the hell did you do?!', but Michael rely smiled.
"I will stay here," Danny said after he pondered for a second or two.
He didn't really want to see the goods Michael had brought to sell. If there were corpses of multiple Tier-1 Monsters in his storage, his mind would go awry, and he would start questioning Michael about the danger of the region his territory had spawned in once again.
There had to be a reason why Michael didn't want to talk about the region around his territory, and Danny had already guessed it. However, he didn't want to reaffirm his guess by following Michael inside the appraisal room.
"Alright, I will be back soon," Michael said before he followed the staff mbers inside the appraisal room next door.
The temperature inside the appraisal room plumted instantly and they waited patiently for Michael to retrieve the goods he wished to sell.
Thus, he began taking them out one by one.
Michael retrieved six blueprints first. He had two sets of those blueprints, so he might as well sell one of each.
Afterward, he retrieved the Bilrox feathers in his possession. Michael had extracted them a second ti to clean them perfectly.
Michael followed up with 93 Low Tier-1 Monster Cores, several dozen Gemstones, Antlers, and other precious body parts from 93 Low Tier-1 Monster corpses, such as their extracted blood, unscathed organs, clean tendons, and more. This ti, Michael sold the extracted at of Tier-1 Monsters as well.
However, that was not everything. In fact, it was rely an appetizer.
The main dish was about to be served now.
Michael retrieved several hundred perfectly extracted lizard scales, close to two tons of lizard at, the perfectly extracted and well-preserved organs and other precious body parts of the lizard, and her monster core.
When Michael retrieved the perfectly dissected lizard corpse, the staff mbers stopped moving for a mont. Their jaws hit the ground and their eyes widened as they turned over to Michael.
Was that guy really a Tier-0 Lord?!
'Why are they acting like that? It shouldn't be the first ti they saw such monster corpses. They didn't see the desert, either!' Michael thought while retrieving the War Axe Artifact of the Gogi Lord.
**
Half an hour later, Michael and the staff mber left the appraisal room. The staff mber looked deathly pale while Michae smiled brightly.
'As expected, the lizard mother was a Tier-2 monster!'
Satisfied with himself and the gains he had made, Michael followed the staff mber to the counter to sign the deal.
anwhile, Danny praised himself inwardly when he saw the stunned look on their faces.
"Good thing I didn't join them…"
