Weapon seller in the world of magic

Mark neither had the strength nor the will to sacrifice his beloved attack helicopter. Previously, he had given up the Battle Tank for the divine sword. But, it was worth it. However, was the life of this king worth it?

Maybe, it's best to throw away the life of this old man. Having a submarine or a destroyer is good but they aren't worth compared to the attack helicopter.

As Mark thought of it as an impossible quest and had second thoughts about completing it, the system lured him into debt.

<strong>*Ding! The host can use the stone first and pay up later.</strong>

"Pay up later? As in credits?"

<strong>*Ding! 1 credit = 5 gold coins. The purification stone will cost 50,000 credits. 250,000 gold coins will be added to the debt.</strong>

"250k? Are you crazy?" Mark gasped in shock. He instantly rejected the idea, "there's no way I would give up such a huge amount of money just so to wake up this old man. Fuck off the quest. I will just take him to the royal palace and leave his fate in their hands. If they frame him as Shen Qiu or will they suspect the current imposter king, let them take care of their mess…"

Even if the system is allowing him to take care of the problem and pay off the debts later, Mark was unwilling. Maybe, if he was desperate for warships, he would have thought it differently but at the moment, he prefers combat aircraft over the submarine.

However, the system never does things half-heartedly. When it offers something, in one way or another, the system always acquires something in return. This is its strength and also its weakness.

It was the first time Mark had realized the fact when he doesn't accept its solutions, the system gave him another proposal.

<strong>*Ding! Accepting the offer will unlock the credits limit and the Unique items section in Store.</strong>

"Credit Limit? Unique items? Explain." Mark could vaguely guess what they are just by their names but nevertheless, he asked the system for clarity.

<strong>*Ding! Upon unlocking the credit limit, the host could shop in the store and pay up later with a low interest of 0.1% per day.</strong>

<strong>*Ding! Based on the host's repayment history, the credit limit will increase gradually. For every 10 credits the host repays to the system, the credit limit will be increased by 1 credit by the next day.  </strong>

<strong>*Ding! As a beginner, the host would be given a 100,000 credit limit at the start.</strong>

<strong>*Ding! The unique items section was a part of Unique weapons in the store. Upon unlocking it, the host would be able to buy unique items that aren't present in the Items section, although the rest of the unique weapons will remain unavailable to buy.</strong>

"So, it's like a credit card, huh! although with slightly different terms and conditions."

Just like the system expected, Mark was tempted by this offer. Because he was confident in paying back by converting earned gold coins to the credits.

Originally, he had the money to buy the stone but it would make his life difficult.

A while ago, Feng Wu had given him an advance payment of 300k gold coins. Of them, 42k gold coins were put as a 20% upfront for his first order that was delayed by 8 weeks due to his promise with Emperor Shang.

Of the remaining 258k gold coins, he had delivered 175k gold coins worth of goods to Feng Wu on the second order, which was basically the same as the first order plus 10 rocket launchers and 100 warheads. From it, he earned his 60% share totaling over 100k gold coins.

So, there are more than 120k gold coins that are still unaccounted yet.

From the second prince, he earned over 18k gold coins as a part of his share.

As for purchases, he might have ordered rare materials and a 1500 carat ether ore but he didn't receive the order and only paid over 30k gold coins as an advance payment.

Along with his personal wealth, he had a total of over 400k gold coins in the inventory.

So, if he had spent away 250k right away, it will bring him a lot of trouble in the future.

But now, because of the offer from the system, he felt as if a huge door was opened.

As the increase of the credit limit occurs right on the next day, Mark felt like it is a good deal, despite the fact that he knew how this offer was a bottomless debt.

For example, if he had spent 20k credits i.e. 100k gold coins, on the first day, the interest would be 100 gold coins. The next day, it would be 100 gold coins and 10 silver coins. On the third day, it would be 100 gold coins, 20 silver coins & 1 copper coin.

Like this, the interest will be kept on increasing minutely every day. Still, Mark is willing to take the risk. Instead of lavishly spending his gold coins, he decided to save the earned money to convert it into credits.

However, he wasn't willing to just accept the system's verdict. Mark had realized the system's personality based on its actions during the awakening of bloodline or during the exchange of divine sword.

Back then, he just thought that the system is desperate to take back the Battle tank. But when he gave a thought, it originally wanted the divine sword but because of the failure, it offered something else and became open to negotiations.

Mark got a strong feeling that he should negotiate the deal. However, he also knew that he needed to be logical to win over it. He followed his guts and said, "The credit limit is not enough, system. Once you have taken 50,000 credits, I will be only left with another 50000. I don't have any credits left in my account either. So, how about 200,000 credits?"

The system readily gave him the reply, obviously not accepting it.

<strong>*Ding! 200,000 credits amount is the same as million gold coins. The host had yet to earn such a figure even if all the purchases are combined. So, the host's proposal is rejected.</strong>

"Hmm, if only the deal with Feng Wu had gone through smoothly, I would have made him buy advanced weapons with the remaining amount. But, anyway, it only brought me extra business from him. So, there's nothing to complain over there.

But then again, my transactions are over 500k right? Just the first transaction with the second prince was alone worth 500k.

Then, there is 130k gold coins worth of transactions from the noble clans. Even though it is only nothing but compensation, it is still a transaction like the one I sell the beast corpses with cores to the second prince.

Despite how the system didn't include these transactions for quests, it has still acknowledged them as viable transactions and will include them during its upgrade to the next rank. That is how it crossed Rank-3 anyway.

So, I can use this fact to my advantage. Hmm…"

As Mark put his plan into action, the system became silent. Roughly after 10 seconds, it agreed with the negotiation and gave a final deal.

<strong>*Ding! 160,000 credit limit. Deal or No deal?</strong>

Mark let out a bright smile as he nodded, "I accept."

In the next second, the purification stone was sent to his inventory followed by a series of notifications.
