Auction house [1]
After a few days passed when that horrible incident took the lives of countless people. Alex Hargreaves was searching high and low for that player that caught her interest without even stepping away from her monitor she tried searching everywhere for his information. Yet no one by the name of Shuu Adachi was recorded from birth and death was listed throughout the network that she possesses
'Where is he? Or the bigger question is who is he? Mr. Shuu Adachi where could you be or is that even your real name? I wanted to meet him after we escaped from that situation but he was nowhere to be found, I tried searching for his name yet not even a single entry was recorded of him. He didn't seem to be lying when I asked him, maybe the rumors that were made from his appearance when he arrived in those raggedy sets of robes are true? Did he seclude himself from the outside world? Who is his master? And why was he that knowledgeable in combat? So many questions unanswered but when I got a closer look he didn't exert any light within his body,'
"He wasn't one of the Bearer Of Light, then how come he was able to subdue all of those monsters by himself? Sigh, the more I try to search for him the more I want to recruit him. Mr. Shuu where did you go?" When all of her hope fall from the depths of despair, one of her father's subordinates found a video of a person that she was looking for
"Ms. Alex I've found it, the player you were looking for in this video matches the descriptions you've told us. Raggedy robes, Natural brown hair, Piercing blue eyes, and a ton of knowledge in combat. All in this one video that went viral overnight look, does he have the same descriptions as you told?" It was a video unlike any other, a low-cost graphics yet enough to show the face of the player in the clip. With every description matched along with his calm and soothing voice, he attacked the muscular man to defend an injured girl in the process. After that the video ended, her eyes were filled with joy that he was near, still within her reach in the city where she resides, and placed an order for anyone capable enough to find him
After a few days have passed, Shuu that had so little knowledge before he became Luna's bodyguard, asked for his first request. A pile of books that has everything that he requested, history, technology, and topics about anything that might be worth exploring. All of that knowledge stored within those books wasn't that easy to be learned, it will take countless hours just to be learned. If he was a normal person that is, with every page he read he would gain a new set of knowledge that greatly improved his understanding

"That's all there is to know about this Era, it seems that I've entered the 21st Century, where their troubles lie in these Mysterious Rifts. Along with the fact that there are these so-called "Heroes" and "Villains", They have the power to use skills that were only meant to be used by the Originator of Light and Darkness. Oh well, I'll find a way to learn more about this topic later, since I'll have to continue with my work," He closed the last book after he placed it on top of the mountain of knowledge that was given to him. Changing from his raggedy sweaty and uncomfortable clothing he changes to his newly made robes that we're personally designed for his body
"You're late, what kind of attitude is that for you to behave like this you're a disgrace to be my butler," He was met by a Cheeky girl after he opened his door, a fair lady that was blessed with a silky Green hair and a pair of Ruby colored eyes
"It's Six in the morning? Do I have to tend to your needs when the clock hasn't shifted to Seven? Why is it that you're bothering me this early in the morning, I feel like I'm being mistreated. Don't tell me that the meat I cooked for you is already consumed?" Shuu gave him a menacing glare after his relaxing schedule was interrupted by her sudden appearance
"What do you think of me a pig? Hmmmp, your tongue is a little too sharp, If It weren't for your power I would've already had you killed. But your talents are not that common so I'll tolerate your actions, don't tell me you've forgotten already. As for the reason why I'm standing here before you?" Luna returned a glare to his face after she brought up her reasonings behind her arrival
"You're talking about your training with me? I think I remember that I was the one that was in charge of our schedule and if I remember correctly were not even done with our preparations. We haven't even gotten you, your signature weapon armor, and last but not least your father's permission. I heard from the others that he strictly prohibited your training and just kept you like a caged bird," He reminded her of their plans which doesn't have any relation to why she was there early in the morning while already dressed up in her most fashionable clothing
"Screw that idiot! If he didn't prohibit me from learning how to fight I could've simply killed all of his enemies in pursuit of my life. Instead of having to rely on a bunch of weak, useless, replaceable players that died after I met you. I had it with his protective attitude if he's a good father then he could've taught me how to wield a weapon instead of hiring a bunch of Morons. Whew... Sorry about that I just had to let that out of my system, in any case, we have to go to the item shop as early as possible. I heard there's going to be an auction house, I can even get you a little gift if we go there now," His greed took over his reasonings when he heard that he could easily obtain a magical artifact without any hurdles to overcome. With that, they hopped on their vehicles and were guarded by another set of cars that were driven by her other underlings
'Luna Aldea also known as the daughter of the Collecter a person that's known throughout the underworld for being the man that sells a ton of rare equipment and items. Apart from that, he's known to have tricked a lot of people if he doesn't acquire the minimum amount of money that he asked for in return for the item. It's a good thing that I didn't lay a finger on her daughter he was said to be in the rankings at A rank if his items were considered as his strength might be comparable to an S rank,'
"Why are you staring so intense all of a sudden," Luna averted her gaze to the window after she notices him giving an intense stare that made her blush
'Respect the Talented and Fool the Weak, the Weak ones were given a warm and cozy home for them to nurture their numbers. And to the Talented ones they give their utmost respect, even if they're just a mere servant they must respect them if not it's most likely that your most powerful tool. Might become a double-edged sword that might come about one's downfall, she doesn't treat me like a servant nor her equal she treats me like I'm a tool that she needs to rely on. It doesn't matter how she sees me as time passes by as long as she doesn't get in my way I'll allow her to continue her life,'
During their long and tiring ride, he closes his eyes without any kind of interruption to occur, giving him some shut-eye even if he has to wake up when they arrived. Until they finally came to their destination the shop where it houses the most expensive and rarest weapons, on the market. With her connections, they were able to pass the longest line that they saw. Their vehicle was parked at the center where they enter, making a ton of people that we're lining up to be curious about their identity
A Green haired beauty was being Escorted by a Brown haired butler wearing all black that was accompanied by a dozen guards at her back. With their entrance, they saw a lot of items that were being sold at their lowest prices, potions, weaponry, magical artifacts, and armor with all those treasures on display. Most would think that they'll easily fall for their tricks if it weren't for Shuu's advice that changed her decision and moved on to the auction house. After he noticed that most of what their selling isn't even that rare nor valuable to waste their money
"Let's move to the auction most of these items aren't that rare, to begin with," Shuu whispered in her ear, making her decision to continue to the auction house instead of browsing the items in the other stalls
[System: You've arrived at the Auction house, you'll now be given a seat that's to your choosing]
Their arrival inside the Auction was proven to be their greatest decision when they will encounter a treasure. Along with a group of hoarders that was able to pass through the security of the shop. They aimed to capture most of the well-known people that belonged to a rich and powerful family. In hopes of making an easy cut to a better life
"All of you in your respected positions, the auction is about to start," They were on their move along with a player they hired to provide them some support
