Capítulo 146: Second Customer
"Excuse me..."
Inside the shop, the young man saw a man surrounded by three beautiful girls. As a villager, this was his first time seeing such a beautiful woman.
"Welcome, customer. Please come in."
Ars woke Est up, and asked her to get off his thigh.
"If you want to sleep, do it upstairs, not here. You embarrassed Ars in front of other people."
"You're just jealous."
Est responded to Restia's sharp words.
Before the two of them started arguing, Ars stopped them both.
After being scolded by him, the two girls were obedient and did not cause any trouble.
"Cough... Welcome to the Destiny Trading Club. In this place, anything can be traded, except eternal life, everything in the world including things beyond your imagination can be bought."
Ars gave a brief explanation about the Destiny Trading Club when he noticed the man was still standing at the door and didn't dare to enter.
The building design of the Destiny Trading Club did not match the aesthetics of this era, so making others wary was natural.
"But I do not have money." The man said modestly, afraid of provoking the other party.
"Payments are not made using cash. Putting that aside, come inside, let's talk."
Walking to the chair, Ars sat down while pointing at the empty chair in front of him.
Seeing his friendliness, the man felt relieved. Then he dared to step into the shop.
"So soft."
Once he sat down, he was amazed at how soft the chair he was sitting on was. Even the chairs in rich merchants' houses were not as good as the chairs here.
"Please enjoy."
Rea served tea and cake on the table, then stood quietly behind Ars.
"Anooo... Just what kind of place is the Destiny Trading Club?"
The man didn't dare to touch the dishes in front of him, and asked uncertainly.
The Destiny Trading Club is very famous in Heian-kyo and its name has even spread throughout the country.
There are many rumors and stories circulating in society.
Some say the Destiny Trading Club was sent by heaven to oversee Emperor Suzaku's reign.
Other rumors say that the Destiny Trading Club is a gathering place for Youkai, Oni, Ayakashi, and other supernatural beings.
However, the most popular and trusted rumor among the people was that anyone who managed to enter the Destiny Trading Club and meet the owner of that place would have that person's wish come true.
Of course, these were all just rumors without any proof because up to now no one had managed to enter the Destiny Trading Club.
"You already know the answer, why still ask?"
Ars looked at the young man with a faint smile.
"So the rumor that this place can grant all wishes is real?"
The man's eyes widened after getting confirmation, remembering the nine giant monsters outside, he believed it.
Initially, when he saw the nine monsters glaring at him, he almost peed his pants and wanted to turn around and run. However, he felt he would regret it for the rest of his life if he missed this opportunity.
Trusting his intuition, he took a risk and decided to enter.
"No need to be tense, Sanzenin Eiji. Drink that tea, I'm sure you'll be more relaxed." Ars said after reading the fate of the man in front of him.
"Hah? How do you know my name?"
The man named Sanzenin Eiji was stunned, he was sure he hadn't said his name.
"There's nothing I don't know." Ars did not explain further.
*Gulp*
Facing the unknown, Eiji swallowed hard. Staring at the beautiful cup in front of him, with trembling hands, he drank the tea.
After drinking, he felt his mind refreshed and clear, he was no longer as scared as before.
"Is what you said before true? Can you grant anything?" Eiji asked in a calmer manner.
"Treasures, thrones, and women. As long as the price is equal to the payment, you can buy anything here. So, Eiji-san, is there anything you want?"
Like a devil who tempts humans, Ars offers a temptation that is difficult for most humans to resist.
"I want to be rich!" Eiji answered without hesitation.
"Can." Ars nodded, not surprised by the other party's request.
Sanzenin Eiji was born into a poor family, and was the first of eight children.
Unlike in the modern era when Japan faced serious population decline due to low birth rates, some families in the Heian Era had many children.
Eiji works as a laborer on the farm of a prominent family, and he lives in poverty.
"How much do I have to pay?" Eiji asked excitedly.
"It depends on how rich you want to be. Eiji-san wants to live in wealth only for this generation, or wants every future descendant of you to live in wealth." Ars provides options.
Eiji didn't answer immediately, his brows furrowed indicating his mind was working hard. After pondering for a moment, he asked instead of giving an answer.
"Name the prices of the first and second options."
*🍷*
Sipping Chateau Margaux brand wine, Ars put the glass on the table, Rea quickly wiped his mouth carefully.
"If you only want one generation's wealth, the price is 15 years of your life."
Eiji's pupils shrank, his excitement which had peaked in an instant, now subsided after finding out the price and his body shivered from the cold even though the temperature in the room was warm.
His view that previously thought the young man in front of him was a god changed to like seeing a devil.
Ignoring Eiji's change in mindset, Ars continued to speak.
"As for the price of the second option... I'm sure Eiji-san is interested after hearing it."
"W-What is the price of the second option?" Eiji asked nervously.
According to him, the second option will have a more expensive price than the first option.
"The price... Each of your female descendants cannot live more than 28 years."
"Just that?"
Eiji can't believe it, it's too cheap!
"You're interested, right?" Ars smiled faintly.
"Then I choose the second one. Please give me abundant wealth that will not run out for generations to come." Eiji said solemnly.
He did not hesitate to sacrifice his future descendants. Besides, he would never meet them, why should he care?
Instead of sacrificing 15 years of his life, he would rather sacrifice his descendants!
"You are sure?" Ars once again announced the deal, but his lips curved into a smile.
(Human greed knows no bounds)
He realized that Rea's heart was shaken seeing this dirty transaction.
This was her first time seeing the dark side of humans.
In order to get rich quickly, people are willing to throw away their conscience.
"I'm certain. Mister, I want to buy wealth. I am willing to pay that price."
Eiji didn't show the slightest hesitation.
He was tired of living in poverty, being belittled by others, and being looked down upon.
"Okay. Transaction complete. Starting today, the Sanzenin Family will become Japan's largest conglomerate of all time." Ars said, starting to edit Eiji's fate with the ability of the Fate Scripture.
"Thank you very much, Mister."
"No need to thank me. You get what you buy," Said Ars with a smile.
Eiji sincerely thanked him.
