In a usual or something similar, a back alley would be a place where something bad usually happens.

The main characters meet bad people, attack others, kill, gamble, do bad things, and stuff like that.

But this back alley was just like any other place I had passed through in this city.

Same people, same kind of stores, same cheerful atmosphere and the distinct uniqueness of this place.

Though people looked shady, like those usual big, bad people of shows, they were happily doing their trades and stuff.

This place had more rare, diverse, and more things than the normal market, and though the shops looked old and all, if you enter any one of them, they would be the same as anything on the main street.

This was the 'clean' back alley of the city, and though there was a dark one, I had no work there.

People here were those that had no identity, were refugees of other places, small criminals, or people like that.

And this radiant atmosphere was better than the too lively market outside.

This was good, and I had reached the shop Rein mentioned.

The best shop to deal with jewels and gold stuff that had more hard value than the resources.

And right now…

I was disguised as a big, middle-aged man with a rough body and had the air of a ferocious beast around me.

Most just avoided me as I walked through the paths and I currently had no money, so I can't even buy things I wanted from here.

If I wanted some quick cash, selling the most worthless things was the best thing for me.

And gems, those normal pieces of pretty stones that just laid around on some floors of our house were the best option.

Though there was a gem room filled with precious stones that had special powers, the ones I had were just worthless compared to those marvelous pieces of craft.

I had some of those rocks that I knew would fetch me a good gold or platinum so I was looking forward to these dealings.

This shop was the best place to sell this kind of thing according to her so I was here.

Standing before a wooden door shop that few entered, I knocked on the door three times.

"What do you need?" An old male voice asked from behind the door.

"Money," I answered as Rein had told me, and the voice asked again.

"Silver, gold, or platinum?" The voice asked again, and I sighed internally.

'What the hell? Why this mysterious process like those secret places? Damn, this wasn't even that big of a deal.

There should be better and bigger places where you would need passwords to enter but, this jewelry shop wasn't one of them.'

Shaking my head, I answered the question.

"All," I responded, and the old voice behind the door gasped audibly.

This was the exact reaction one would have when you tell them you have something that would interest everyone in general.

This was quite something, and the door opened.

The old man in a fine butler uniform greeted me with a bow as I observed the inside of the building with surprised eyes.

The outside of this building was normal, just like any other building around this area but, the inside had a different story.

Not only this place was shining like any other modern store on the normal market, there were more decorations and fancy details inside it.

The spatial magic used in this place was superb, and just the fact that this small three-story building had far more space inside was enough to tell their influence.

Just like any luxurious shop, there were different counters with different special gems, and that wasn't all.

There were some artifacts, rare resources, and even magic tomes displayed on shelves.

This place was fine and the employees here were also clean, dressed in fine coats like some vast place.

This was more than I expected and just from the look on the old man with brown hair and dark green eyes, I knew I would have a good time here.

"Can you prove your claim, sir? I will have to ask the manager to check your goods if it's true." He politely asked, intimidated by my size and fierce aura.

Though there were guards in full armor all over the place and even the people inside were looking at me like I was some kind of killer, he was faring well.

These people couldn't even see my face inside this (level-4) hood artifact I borrowed from her before departing from the forest.

And from their clean, noble-like outfits, I knew they were special customers.

Well, I wasn't here for things like that.

Looking down at the old man, I put my arm around him and made him bend down in the corner.

The guards reacted in an instant but, the old man lifted his hand to stop them.

I knew this old man was a (tier-3) mage, but it was nothing.

Even though mages were rare as a whole, finding a (tier-3) and working with him as a gatekeeper would be the least expected thing from an organization like this one.

Well, it was still nothing.

"What do you think you are doing, sir?" the old man asked with a serious face, and I took out a single diamond from my storage device.

"The sample," I said in the voice of an adult man that made him shiver in fear.

He could feel that I was strong, stronger than him at the very least, and so he didn't want anything to get ruined in their dear shop.

He gulped as he looked into my now disguised blue eyes and nodded in fear.

But, as soon as his eyes fell on the finely crafted diamond that was clear on the side of his palm, his eyes widened and glued to the rock.

That was the highest quality gem and he could tell just from a glance just how precious it was for them.

But I had no intention of just letting him star at this excellent piece of rock.

He wasn't the one I would be talking to.

Storing the diamond back, I pressured his shoulders and said in a deeper voice, "Get me the highest person. I have more than one like this."

He jolted his head towards me with unbelieving eyes that couldn't believe my words.

His whole body was shaking right now, and his whole body was covered with sweat.

His hands and mouth were shaking just from the thoughts but, he managed to utter those words with much difficulty.

"M-more?"

'Cute grandpa. This is fun~! How will the higher-ups react~? Hehehe.'

I was having a blast right now and how the whole store had fallen silent from the moment I entered was even more fun to watch.

I would have shown this one to those three too but, the three ladies were doing cloth shopping right now so that wasn't my place to 'observe'.

Not that I wanted to see Rein in different clothing.

That was too childish.

This was more fun than that and how the observation devices all over this place were stopped from the moment I took out that rock was enough to tell me the higher up was watching us.

The grandpa was horrified and I had enough fun with him for now.

Taking off my hand, I just nodded at him.

My eyes were still strongly staring at him, and he was barely holding himself up.

"P-please come this way, dear guest." He said after straightening himself and receiving the orders through that hearing device around his ears.

This was just a start, though. Things would be even more fun with an experienced merchant.

I will do the first deal of this life today~!

This was too exciting and just the thought of doing bargains and intimidating the opponent with this form was giving me tickles.

'Hehehe... this really is awesome~!'
