Astonishing Sales

It didn't take long before a person came up to Clay's stand and began asking what had happened to the woman earlier.

"Um, excuse me, how did that woman turn into light just now?" The man asked in a curious tone.

Hearing this Clay grinned as he explained.

"Well, she used my map, which could teleport others instantly to any place in the Adurep Kingdom, though it costs quite a bit of coin"

"What? Can it actually do that?" The man raised his eyebrows as he questioned Clay.

"Of course, it can, but it costs 10 silts to use it, quite a cheap price if you ask me since you can literally teleport instantaneously anywhere in this kingdom" Clay promoted his map.

"I'll be the judge of that, I've got something to do in Silver Shine city so I might as well try, I'm gonna go and pack up, your so-called map can also teleport items yes?" The man asked.

"Yes my map can teleport items that you bring on you as well" Clay nodded.

"Alright, I'll be right back" the man said as he took his leave.

Another person walked up to Clay's stand as the man from earlier left, asking the same questions as the man from earlier, the questions of how did Naomi turn into light and disappear and the like.

"You can also check out my map and can view anywhere in them for just 10 Cits, don't worry, I'm not gonna tell anyone" Clay promoted his other maps.

"I'll think about it" He responded.

Then he left, prompting the same person from earlier to return with his packed luggage, he came up to the stand and warned Clay.

"If this doesn't work I expect to be refunded" The man glared at Clay, still doubting Clay's words thinking he was just boasting or whatnot.

"I can assure you that it would be a very pleasant experience" Clay rolled his eyes internally at the slightly rude customer.

'It would definitely be a pleasant experience... for me, MWUAHAHAHA' Clay mischievously thought as the unsuspecting man didn't realize the scare that he would receive when blacking out.

The man paid upfront, placing 10 shiny silvery round coins on the desk.

Clay's eyes widened as he hadn't seen that much money in his entire life.

Clay with his eyes still glued to the money, reached out the tier 2 map to the man while his other hand picked up the coins carefully and placed them in his pouch like his precious newborn.

The man inspected the map before using it, exploring where he wanted to teleport to first before pressing the button on the top right.

The man soon turned into balls of light along with his luggage, confused by why he felt nothing, not even pain even when his body started disappearing only to realize that he WAS disappearing, it took a moment to register that he was slowly dissipating into light particles but a look of fear appeared on his face before it was replaced with glowing balls of light traveling up to the sky.

Clay laughed in amusement at this scene.

'Serves you right for being quite rude to me, I hope you have a pleasant trip hehehe'

Clay turned his attention back to the money in the pouch that he was holding in his hands.

'Man, it only took one customer to get enough money that took me at least a week in the past' Clay pondered in amazement.

'This system is probably not that bad after all'

Clay brought all his maps with him back to his home as he didn't want to leave them out while he was placing the money he had earned today in his room.

'Mom surely wouldn't have to worry about expenses a lot anymore now that I can help her' Clay felt that a huge burden would be released from his and his Mom's back the moment he gave the money to her.

Clay went back to his stall with all his maps on his person before placing them back on the desk.

'I gotta test my physical capabilities now' Clay thought as he warmed up.

'Firstly, 100 pushups, 100 situps, 100 squats, and 100 full power jumps' Clay thought as he stretched.

Seeing that no one was currently approaching his stall Clay decided to do pushups in front of the stall so that he could see if anyone would approach him while he was testing his strength.

Clay squatted down and got into a pushup form.

'1, 2, 3, 4, 5...' Clay thought as his body was as light as a feather.

'97, 98, 99, and 100' Clay pushed out the last one with so much strength that he stood up with just the force of his arms pushing.

'Phew, that didn't even make me sweat' Clay shamelessly thought as he wiped a bead of sweat trickling down his temples.

It was now time for situps, but before Clay could do them a potential customer appeared.

Seeing that someone was walking toward him Clay went back behind his stand to wait for her.

"My friend told me that I could see anywhere in your maps, is that true?" The woman asked.

"Yes, it costs 10 Cits though, and I also have a new product that can teleport you to any place in the Adurep Kingdom, although it is quite expensive" Clay answered while also hinting at his new map.

The woman raised her brows in response.

"Teleport anywhere? I don't believe you, I'll only check the maps" The woman frowned, clearly thinking Clay wasn't telling the truth.

"Well someone has already tried it, it costs 10 Silts if you want to change your mind" Clay shrugged his shoulders as it really didn't matter if the woman doesn't purchase it, after all, there was much more fish in the sea.

The woman still didn't believe it. She just took a look at the tier-one maps and then paid the amount.

Time passed by like this until it was almost night.

While Clay was selling he found out that his body was significantly stronger compared to before, as he could now do 100 pushups with ease, compared to his limit of 57 previously before he had increased his stats, he could also jump as high as his house which was quite scary for him. Clay had also earned a total of 31 Silts today, already more than enough to buy the second batch of materials for the tier two map. But Clay wouldn't buy them yet, as he doesn't have any information on other important places like the Adurep kingdom that people could teleport to.

Clay ate his dinner and then gave 5 Silts to his mother, much to the latters' surprise and gratefulness.

Then Clay went to his room playing with his map for a bit before deciding to sleep in.
