I Got 999 Level With One Cut

"... Ah. "    

Estelle, who did not have enough magic power to drive the fire elements in her mage robe to heat up the formation array, was wrapped in a thick windbreaker and scarf. She stood outside the glass window of an ordinary bread shop.    

She pointed to the other side of the glass and placed a row of donuts on top of the beautiful display cabinet.    

The other hand was nervously pulling on the corner of her clothes. She shrank her neck and looked at Riko uneasily.    

... "Do you want to eat it?"    

Riko asked in a low voice.    

The latter nodded in response.    

The silver-haired girl thought for a moment and took out a stack of cheques from her pocket. She pulled out a cheque and filled in her name on it. However, she did not write down the amount and handed it to Meiko.    

"Help me... buy this shop."    

"Eh? Wait a minute?! No need... "    

After hearing what Riko said, Estelle was so shocked that she almost jumped up.    

But no matter how she reacted, Meiko had already held the cheque in her hand.    

She seemed to be in a good mood today and even had the mood to joke.    

The blonde girl bent down slightly and swung her right hand to her left chest, bowing like a knight.    

"Okay, my princess"    

... "Stop playing."    

Riko slightly blushed and lowered her head.    

"Okay, okay, okay..."    

Estelle was stunned to see Meiko actually push open the door of the breadmaker and then find the person sitting behind the counter. After a short exchange of words, the expression of the person selling the bread changed. He quickly disappeared behind and appeared again. Beside him was a tall man wearing a white hat. He seemed to be the owner of this shop.    

"That..."    

The girl with pink hair opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.    

She was gently interrupted by Riko.    

"How should I say it... I am probably... richer, right? The money needed to buy a shop is nothing much. "    

In terms of money, magician and ordinary people who were not magician were two completely different worlds.    

If the economists on Earth that Riko originally lived on came here, they would probably be very interested in the economic system here.    

Powerful mages would be willing to pay an unimaginable amount of money just for a potion that could increase their strength, or a magic equipment.    

For example, the wand that Riko used for a year before was broken, and it was worth three thousand shields. If the Devil Instructor's bank account did not have hundreds of thousands of Aldran Shield, it would be too embarrassing to appear on the streets...    

And the average person's spending for a year should not be more than fifty shields.    

The reason for this phenomenon was probably due to the special relationship between mages and countries.    

The government, which relied on the precious magic materials produced during the Plane Great Development, would not be stingy to give a portion of this money to those powerful mages every once in a while.    

These mages naturally had to throw the money back into the market to make themselves stronger. At the same time, it indirectly increased the price of the magic materials.    

Ordinary people usually did not have the chance to come into contact with these. Thus, the necessities and luxury goods in their eyes were completely different from the luxury goods in the eyes of mages. Over the years, they formed two different economic cycles.    

The two groups were independent, almost not interfering with each other, but using the same currency was indeed a very strange thing.    

"No... that's not what I meant..."    

Estelle really felt uneasy.    

"I just want to taste what it tastes like... I don't need to be like this..."    

"I know..."    

Riko gently sighed and moved closer to the pink-haired girl. The formation array circulating on her body could make her feel warmer.    

"You must have been standing here for a long time looking at the thing on the other side of the glass... No, it should be more than once... You are so familiar with the road to this place, you must have walked it many times..."    

She tilted her head and leaned her head on Estelle's shoulder.    

"So, this kind of thing that you have been thinking about for a long time, you might as well not leave any regrets. After all... Looking at the thing that you really want behind the glass, I think everyone has it before."    

"I want to buy this shop. Name a price."    

Meiko gently placed the cheque on the table and pointed at the blank column of money. She casually said to the person in front of her and lightly tapped the table with her fingers.    

"This..."    

The bread shop owner wiped the sweat off his face.    

"I'm sorry, this shop was passed down from my grandfather, so I don't have any thoughts of selling it for now."    

"20,000 Markcoin. You can continue to manage this shop. Everything can be operated as usual, but the ownership will be mine. How about it? "    

" This... "    

Even for this high-end bread shop in the rich district of Brandenburg, 20,000 Markcoin was already a very fair number.    

According to the exchange rate of 1: 20, it was a total of 1,000 Aldran Shield. And it was basically equivalent to getting nothing.    

It could be seen that the bread shop owner's heart was slightly shaken, but he still shook his head and refused.    

"Excuse me, but since you still plan to operate according to the current state... Then why did you buy it? Our profit margin is not outstanding... "    

" Because I want to. "    

Meiko softly tossed out another number.    

"Forty thousand Markcoin."    

"Just forty thousand Markcoin and you want me to..."    

"40,500."    

"Deal!"    

Ten minutes later, Meiko took out a contract. Estelle and Riko each took a donut and walked out of the bread shop.    

... "That, a blacksmith?"    

The pink-haired girl chewed on the thing in her hand as she turned her head around.    

She saw that Riko's face was still covered with a little bit of bread residue, so she subconsciously took the opportunity to lick Riko's face when she was unprepared.    

... "Wha, what?"    

The latter was obviously shocked and instinctively hid by the side of the golden-haired shield-bearer.    

"I'm sorry... I didn't notice..." Ester apologized in a low voice.    

... ""    

... "What should we do next?"    

Seemingly to make the silver-haired girl forget her actions as soon as possible, she lightly coughed twice before immediately changing the topic.    

Riko raised her head. At this position, she could see the outline of the "Aiden Lake" that was faintly docked in the distant sky in the midst of the snow fog.    

"It should... be leaving tomorrow." She muttered in a low voice.    

"Where to?" Ester asked.    

"Rome."
