Godlike Player in a Game-Like World

Raydon didn't have to give these words much thought. He understood exactly what Belicia was saying. Everything mirrored the social mores of the society he had come from.

Raydon put the belt back and continued walking between the stalls. He inquired after examining a few more items. ''The items here do not appear to be of very high quality.''

''That's right. The highest quality items you will most likely find here are Good-Quality and Blue-Grade. This area also has an auction section, but you need VIP access to participate in it. For this, you need to be at least an E-rank item holder. Even being a young master from a big family doesn't help.'' Belicia added as she looked around.

''I guess you won't help me with this. ''

Belicia chuckled as she gave Raydon a concerned look. ''Unfortunately, I am not permitted to bring anyone with me.'''

Raydon was aware that Belicia was an item holder, but he had no idea what rank she held. ''By the way, what do I need to get to the next rank?''

Belicia hesitated a little and spoke, ''I'll say it anyway, even though it's too soon for you to think about it. You need to win 10 matches in a row, without losing any.''

After giving this requirement some thought, Raydon concluded that it made sense. Combat skills were just as crucial as equipment or stats. No matter how strong you were, it was difficult to win a 5v5 match without the proper tactics.

''What kind of skill are you looking for? '' As they walked, Belicia asked.

''Something that will allow me to locate my enemies and mobs during the match. '' Raydon said what he thought he needed most right now.

''Good choice. ''

After a short distance, Belicia stopped in front of a stall and asked the salesman behind it. The salesman had slime-covered hair and eyes that resembled snakes.

''Do you have a good investigative-type item? ''

''Kekeke, it's been a long time since I've seen a battle maid. '' The salesman hissed with his snake-like tongue.

''You must be the young master she is subordinate to, I have a few on hand. You've found the place where you can find what you're looking for. One of them will no doubt meet your needs.'' Ignoring Belicia, he said while turning to face Raydon.

Although Raydon didn't understand what "battle maid" meant, he didn't dwell on it because it wasn't difficult to figure out. He looked at the seller and said. ''Yes, I am. Show me what you have. ''

The seller laughed once more before taking three items from the counter and placing them in front of Raydon.

Raydon examined one of the items, an earring that resembled a copper coin.

[Earring]

-Grade: White

-Quality: Normal

-Skill: Hearing

The user's hearing is strengthened and made more sensitive, allowing them to distinguish sounds within a 10-meter radius of themselves. Depending on the user's agility, the effect gets stronger.

-Mana cost: 3

-Duration: 10 minutes.

-Cooldown: 11 minutes.

''Not bad. '' Raydon said and moved on to the next item.

[Gloves]

-Grade: Green

-Quality: Good

-Skill: Air Sense

It uses the wind's movement to detect motion within 30 meters. Depending on the user's spirit, the effect gets stronger.

-Mana cost: 2

-Duration: 5 minutes.

-Cooldown: 10 minutes.

Although it didn't look bad either, Raydon wasn't satisfied with the skill. First of all, he had a good glove with a good skill, and he didn't think about changing it until he found a much better one. In addition to that, each match's region's environmental factors were different. This skill might be completely useless on a map with storms, or vice versa, or in a desert with no wind.

​ After making all the evaluations quickly, he took the third and last item.

[Bracelet]

-Grade: Green

-Quality: Good

-Skill: Blood Bat

Using the user's blood, it creates a bat that simultaneously shares its vision with the user. The blood bat's vision range and physical characteristics change depending on the wearer's stamina.

-HP cost: 10

-Duration: 4 minutes.

-Cooldown: 10 minutes.

Raydon looked at the rusty iron bracelet in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. ''I will take this. ''

''You have good eyes. Kekeke. ''

The seller expressed appreciation for Raydon's choice of this item and quickly retrieved the other ones that were in front of Raydon. Raydon was startled, he was suspicious of the salesman's behavior when he heard Belicia.

Belicia scowled at the salesman, then told Raydon. ''The skill of this item may be good, but it has a self-harming requirement. Not many people prefer them. '' She appeared to be trying to talk Raydon out of buying this as she spoke.

''I am sure, I want this. '' He said it without further ado and then asked the seller. ''How much do I have to pay for this item? ''

In response to Belicia's attempts to destroy his business, the salesman gave her a menacing look before turning to Raydon and laughing. ''Keke, It's not much. Just 1200 gold coins. ''

Raydon was stunned upon learning the cost. Even the item that no one wanted was that expensive?

He looked at Belicia, but when he saw her gaze shift elsewhere as if avoiding him, he realized she wouldn't help.

''I don't have much gold with me, but I do have some items I'd like to sell. Is there somewhere I can sell them?'' Raydon asked.

Belicia was surprised to hear this question while pretending to look at another item on the stall. She asked as she turned to face Raydon.

''Did they give other items as well? Have item holders been this generous these days? '' She had assumed that the gloves were the only item he had and that they had been given to him out of pity. As a result, when she learned that Raydon had other items, she had a variety of thoughts.

Raydon ignored Belicia's question and waited for the seller's answer.

''Of course, if there is something I like, we can even trade it. After all, I'm a trader, keke. '' When the salesman heard Raydon, a light flashed in his eye. Raydon was obviously the young master of a large family, and his items couldn't be bad either.

Furthermore, the price he quoted for the item was completely average for the market. To keep his reputation as a dealer in this place, he wouldn't put high prices on his items, but he could make more money by trading them for another item.
