Almighty Summoner System

"Deal!" 

Ban hurriedly answered after hearing her offer. He's even willing to sell it for 10 Gold Coins, how much more 200, with an extra Weapon of his choice at that. 

He was very surprised about the price of those two Eyes as he thought that they would only sell for 5 Gold Coins each at most. Although the Almighty Summoner System said that merchants would buy it for a high price, he did not expect its value to be this high. 

He underestimated the rarity and the added effect of the Red Hermit Termite's eyes. 

Joana hurriedly stood up from the chair as she hastily turned around to retrieve a small box behind her. 

She took a brown glove from her pocket and wore them in her two hands before slowly lifting the two eyes of the Hermit Termite. She then slowly transfers them to the container she just retrieved earlier.

Seeing her careful actions, Ban had the urge to ask about it but decided not to as he might ruin the image of Leon with that action. He wanted to stay silent as long as he could, lest he got busted by the legit Gold Rank Adventurer in front of him.

However, Ban felt elated the next moment as George decided to ask it himself, saving Ban of his troubles. Ban could not even help but give him a thumbs up secretly. 

  "What's that for?" He pointed at the box she was holding.

Joana stayed silent as she carefully placed the last Hermit Eye on the box. She then slowly closed the box and only then did she release a sigh of relief while wiping the sweat rolling down her chest. 

Having done that, she suddenly realized that her drowsiness earlier due to drinking was already gone. 

She then turned her head towards George and said, "It's called a Preservation Box, don't underestimate its appearance as it is a very precious box that could preserve anything placed inside it. Don't even think funny about it, this little box here costs more than your little life, little Georgy!" 

She produced an alluring smirk while speaking those last words which made George gulped a mouthful of saliva in anticipation. 

However, Joana stopped smiling the next second as she turned her head towards Ban. "Isn't that right,? Mr.??" 

"Leon!" Ban nodded his head before stating his name. 

Joana smiled before taking out a pouch below her desk. She placed the pouch on the desk and beckoned for Ban to count the Gold Coins inside of it. 

However, Ban did not do it and instead directly swiped the air above the pouch and stored the pouch of Gold Coins inside the Dimensional Storage. 

Seeing that, Joana confirmed to herself that he was really using a Dimensional Storage Ring. However, she did not ask about it as she knew full well that there are certain things you just need to keep a blind eye to in order not to create trouble for yourself. She thought that a person who has a Dimensional Storage Ring in his/her possession was not someone that could easily be trifled with. 

George also stayed silent as he did not want to offend Sir Leon by asking unnecessary things. 

After a while, Joana finally nodded her head after seeing that Leon did not even try to count it. She was even more sure now that he likely has a strong background as he did not even put coins on his eyes. 

What she did not know was that Ban was actually jumping like a monkey inside his head out of joy. 

"Follow me, Mr. Leon. I'll let you choose a Weapon of your choice on the newly arrived ones." 

Ban turned around and looked at the row of weapons displayed on the glass behind him. He thought it might just be better to just choose a weapon around here. 

However, when Joana saw him turning his head, she hurriedly explained something that even George, who is a frequent visitor of the store did not know. 

"Err- Those weapons and armors displayed on the glass are the low-ranked ones, so you might not be able to find something that you will like there. The newly arrived ones are two times better than them even at the same rank." 

"Weapons have a rank too? How about armor?" George could not help but ask about it. He was only a carriage driver and does not have any fighting capability. Even his Swift Snail is also not suitable for fighting so he did not bother learning about weapons, armor, and other stuff related to fighting. After all, they don't need it as the roads were protected by the E-Elite Rank Road Guards anyway. 

"Of course! It depends on what kind of Beast the weapon was made from. For example, this piece of dagger here is made from the single horn of a Lazy Horn Beetle. A Lazy Horn Beetle has a rank of F-Apprentice Rank so this dagger here is also at F-Apprentice Rank." Joana answered George's curiosity. 

She then added, "However, there's an exemption to that rule. Depending on the skill and talent of the blacksmith, the weapon or armor created might upgrade into a higher rank or regress into a lower one."

"And another thing before I forgot, there are some weapons and armor that have special effects attached to them. They are called Plus Weapon or Armor due to their added special effects. The effects could also improve or deteriorate a weapon or an armor's grade." Joana said while taking a glance at Ban's Ant Mask.

Ban noticed the shift of focus on her eyes but he did not say something about it in the end. He does not have any intention to hide it anyway. After all, it was aligned with his persona as Leon- wealthy, strong, and silent. 

George nodded his head in understanding. Although he doesn't need to learn it, he decided just now that he should learn more about Adventurers and stuff, who knows it might come in handy in the future. 

Ban was also elated as he gained some information without asking about it. 

Joana was about to turn around and go to the new arrival's room seeing that George understood her explanation, however, not even a moment had passed when George asked another one. A question that Ban was also curious about. 

"How about those Red Hermit Eyes that you just bought? What kind of weapon or armor can be made from them?"
