God's Eyes

Chapter 304 Shop



There were a lot of things Jason wanted to do but almost everything required lots of funds which he had to acquire first.

It was only fortunate that his masters supported him until now with his body refining resources and a small amount of high-grade mana stones to help him while he consolidated his foundation with the three basic lifestyle occupations at the same time.

Adding his expenses for food that were horrifyingly high until he explained to his soulbonds that it was better for them to eat less and lower mana dense food to prevent him from breaking apart, he didn't have much star notes anymore!

As such, his only high expenses, for now, were the body refining process because the required nutrition and mana couldn't be supplied by cheap products.

Other than that, his mana absorption didn't necessarily need mana stones, only if he wanted to break through faster, which was exactly what he was supposed to do right now in order to enlarge and strengthen his vessel to accommodate stronger or even more soulbonds.

Keeping that in mind, Jason was sure that his masters would still continue to support him.

However, to make him independent they also restricted their support line to a bare minimum which prevented him from utilizing everything he could if he were to have enough resources.

After his talk about the vessel and his issues, they offered to increase their support only for Jason to reluctantly accept it to a certain degree.

He didn't want to rely too much on his masters and it was only because he feared that his body might tear apart that he accepted their offer.

With an increased mana and nutrition supply, he would have more than enough resources to stay hidden, inside their small house for several weeks if not months.

But that was not what Jason wanted to do because if he were to do that at his mana core rank, his combat prowess would decrease by a large margin thanks to his rusting martial art practice!

It was already difficult for him to stay hidden for the last three months without going out to hunt beasts or do anything to perfectly adjust his body to his new strength which was not good.

Even if all of his combat techniques reached the perfect mastery, Jason was sure that his current combat experience and prowess were nothing special.

Furthermore, after thinking about it for a while, he noticed that his soulbonds' combat experience was either shallow or non-existent which caused him to frown deeply.

Artemis only fought next to him for the first few weeks before they departed to Cyro-City with a small detour through Jiro-City and Scorpio didn't even have any combat experience, to begin with.

He only monitored his master's fights through his eyes after their fortified soul conjunction was formed and that was it.

With this thought in mind. Jason could only estimate that his soulbonds had an extremely weak combat prowess, even if their mana core already reached the peak of the unblemished rank.

It would already be considered a miracle if they were able to defeat late-Unblemished ranked beasts without any help which caused him to frown, only by thinking about the possibility.

If their combat experience was shallow, then it might even cause issues when Jason allowed them to occupy his mana core to use their body parts.

Being able to use their manifested parts on his body, Jason couldn't help but feel restless because it wouldn't need much to cause a big accident if they were to move instinctively during a fight, depriving him of control over their body parts!

As such, Jason talked about this small problem with his masters who told him that they already have a solution for this issue, that was not really one.

However before they wanted to initiate their plan, Shane and Dalia told him that he should just take care of his own plan.

He didn't plan anything special yet but it was roughly one month ago when an idea formed in his head, which would allow him to earn funds without much difficulty.

For this, he purchased a small Shop inside the inner parts of the City and re-designed it completely, without caring about the expenses.

His shop was only 100 sq. meters large and didn't look great in the beginning, only to change completely after he changed out the wallpaper and furniture to make it look more exquisite.

There were also a few other shops inside the B-grade city they resided in but if one were to compare their looks, Jason's small shop was only lacking in goods, employees, and a suitable name!

Inside his spatial ring, there were several hundred perfect purified forged bars, grade-1 potions, and inscribing solutions he could sell.

Other than that there were also several dozen pseudo-mana grade-1 weapons and low-grade-2 potions that were also perfectly purified.

The purified forged bars alone should be enough of an attraction for potential customers because it was not easy for lower-ranked blacksmiths to produce something like this, while higher-ranked blacksmiths wouldn't even bother about forging perfectly purified grade-1 bars.

They would immediately purify grade-2 bars and use them to create mana weapons which was not wrong the wrong path to earn profit.

However, for low-ranked blacksmiths, it would be quite difficult to perfectly purify ores before they reached a certain threshold which made such a thing unnecessary.

Nevertheless, if such bars were found online, many low-ranked blacksmiths would flock around the shop that sold them, only to see if they might be able to learn something by inspecting such a bar.

It was also highly likely for such blacksmiths to purchase purified bars to try breaking through their current shackles in their forging process as it would be slightly less difficult that way.

With this in mind, Jason was already confident to earn a lot as long as he could provide enough resources while the other potions and inscription solutions he had would similarly attract customers.

In the end, blacksmiths who came over to his shop for the purified bars would evidently notice the perfect purified potions which would either cause them to purchase some for themselves or to start gossiping about his shop which was the sort of he wanted.

Right now, his stockpile was relatively large, but once it was used up, he would have to regulate everything, which was however not something he had to bother about right now.

More importantly than that was that he also created an online shop, registered his shop under the name 'Golden Soul' which was something that jumped straight in his thoughts when he pondered about his shop's name.

Additionally, he went to many different sites to look out for employees.

Seeing that it was more difficult than he initially expected, Jason just created a request on all websites he found, which stated the salary he would give and his requirements.

His salary was generous with 6000 Credits which was four times that what normal employees earned inside a C-grade city and Jason was sure that it was more than enough to attract a few employees.

However, his requirements were quite harsh because he demanded a soul contract with a few clauses that prevented his employees from stealing from him, betraying him in any way, or having bias or prejudice against any customer.

This was not something special in Jason's opinion but he was still unsure if he might be able to get three employees which was the number he found perfect for his small shop.

It was not important if they were strong enough to throw a customer with ill-intention out because he also installed a protection system for his shop.

Once everything was done, Jason couldn't help but look at his funds in shock because there were only 3 star-notes from his initially 50 left behind.
