Chapter 670: 670 Out Of Stock

Max remained in the shop near the counter, so he could block anyone who got ideas about barging into the back room to bother the Envoys, but that only made him a prime target for every curious shopper that made it into the shop. 

The girl behind the counter began to panic as the shop became overcrowded, worried that rampant shoplifting would clean out their savings and stock, leaving them with nothing to pay the rental on the unit. 

"Don't worry about it. You are using the approved store tags provided by Absolution. If an unpurchased item is removed from the store, their account will be directly debited for the full retail price of the item. 

It was a request of the higher-end shops. Their shoppers don't care about price, and they don't want the hassle of a checkout counter." Max explained, and the girl visibly relaxed.
