Hitman with a Badass System

"What?! 9000?"

"Aren't you selling at the same price as in your sect?"

"Yeah, where is the 20% discount you told us?"

The scene became turbulent and many disciples were expressing their frustration without holding back. Michael also waited to see how she was going to explain herself rather curiously.

"Of course the price for a Healing potion is 7200 gold coins but what about the taxes such as road tax and transport tax? Back in our sect, we don't have to transport the products, sit under the scorching sun smelling the stink of Netherels in the air. No one is forcing you to buy" Michael could tell everyone who is here to buy had suffered a major wound and without a proper healing potion and treatment,  they would have to face nasty consequences. Therefore, if they had some brains and coins, they would buy the potion while they still can.

The 20% discount was just to rile up the crowd. Many who had only 9000 gold coins or so and suffered some minor may have decided to keep the coins if she didn't give the 20% discount. However now, they couldn't back off because of 1800 gold coins as that would make them look bad and hurt their image in front of all the girls.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you don't look good," Gaya said looking at the pale body of the first disciple who came to buy the healing potion.

"Fuck it, give me the potion" the disciple gritted his teeth and gave his pay cube to Gaya. With a wide grin on her face, she took the payment and handed over the potion to the disciple.

She waited patiently for the disciple to drink the Healing potion without rushing him as it would get them free advertising. Just like Gaya planned when the others saw the nasty wound on the disciple's shoulder closing up at a visible speed, they were stunned. The disciple's skin slowly started to show redness as his face revealed a relieved expression. 80% purity was not a joke and at this moment, they all realized it.

"Now step away for the next customer" 

"Give me one!"

"I need two!"

"Ouch! You're stepping on me, you blind bastard!"

The disciples became restless again and now, they all wanted to get their hands on this miraculous healing potion. Many regretted not buying Healing potions from Ghost when they heard about it days ago.

"Form a line! Or we'll close up the shop!" Gaya shouted like a dictator and looked at Jack.

"You're in the crowd control duty! I'll throw your ass off the wall if I see anyone jump the queue" 

"Yes, Maam!" Jack saluted and started to oversee the crowd. He really believed this psycho girl would throw him off the wall if he let anyone jump the queue.

Due to the big crowd between Michael and her, Sadie couldn't go and talk to him but she had to wait patiently. The selling was going smoothly as more and more disciples joined the queue to buy the potion. Surprisingly while Jack was bossing around the disciples using Ghost and newly found Aelia's reputation, he saw Nyla waiting in the line with a few of her friends.

"Jack!" when the girls and Nyla saw Jack coming towards them, they all showed a seductive smile which made Jack feel like he was flying. As a disciple of a declined sect, he had never experienced something like this. Male or female, no disciples would talk to him due to the status of his sect but now, a group of beauties were smiling and calling him.

Jack was not Michael to resist their charm. He ran towards them like a puppy dog with sparkling eyes.

"Miss Reid, why are you standing in the lie? Are you injured?"

"Oh Jack, call me Nyla" Jack's heart almost jumped out of his chest when he heard Nyla's seductive voice.

"I'm not injured but some of my friends from Golden Valley are, so can you please help us?" she said and whisked Jack's face with the tip of her finger.

"Owwww god..." Jack felt high as a kite while the male disciples from the other sects looked at him with eyes full of jealousy and envy.

"We are the ones who risked our life fighting"

"Yeah we should get the chicks"

"Lucky bastard!"

"I ever thought I would say this but now, I wish I was a disciple of the Sunrise sect"

Jack was not in the mood to hear their comments as all his focus was on the beauties before him.

"What...what can I do for you, Ny...Ny...Nyla?" Jack stuttered before finally calling her by her first name. He was not at all used to all this.

"Oh Jack, can you use your influence to get us some Healing potions?" the smile on Jack's face froze. He knew if he goes to Aelia asking for healing potions, she would kick his ass in front of all the people. However, this was too good an opportunity to pass. If he could get the potions for Nyla, he may have a chance with Nyla.

"You can do that, right?" Nyla and the girls brushed his face with their fingers. Jack's face turned red as his heartbeat doubled by the girls' seduction.

"Yes...yes, I can" He decided to take the risk. Even if Aelia didn't give him some potions, he would beg Ghost to lend him some in secret.

"I told you girls Jack will be able to help us" Nyla giggled and placed her pay cube on Jack's hand.

"Buy us three Healing potions Jack" Jack mustered all his courage and made his way back to Gaya.

Michael was busy showing off his Alchemy skills by brewing healing potions on the spot while Gaya was sitting on her chair with her legs up on the table. She was relaxingly fiddling with pay cubs and selling the healing potions when she saw Jack walking towards her with puppy eyes.

"Didn't I put you on crowd control?"

"Sister Aelia, please... help me" Jack swallowed air in nervousness and silently begged Gaya without allowing others to hear his plea. Looking at Jack's eyes welling up and the shivering, Gaya thought someone had beaten him up while he was on guard duty. Micheal on the other hand didn't stick his nose between Gaya and Jack because he noticed everything and knew why Jack is here.

"What? Did someone attack you? Who the fuck dared to attack my minion?"

"Sister Aelia please don't shout!" Jack stopped her before she could make a big scene and spoil his image among the girls.

"Tell me who attacked you? I'll kick their ass before I kick your ass for getting your ass kicked" Michael chuckled while all the disciples who heard her became astounded by her talent of swearing.

"No one Sister Aelia, no one attacked me. Now can you please calm down?"

"Huh? Then why are you here?" She lowered her voice and asked.

"Can I explain quietly?" he pleaded and looking at his face, she sighed and nodded. He then whispered everything that happened with Nyla into Gaya's ear and begged her to give him three Healing potions.

"Please please please Sister Aelia, help a brother out. I'll do anything for you if you do this, I'll even name my first child after you, even if it's a boy"

"Alright, alright, here take it" after his plea and the offer to name his child after her, she decided to show some kindness to Jack.

"You better name you kids after me if you ever get married, that is" 

"Really?! Oh Thank you, Sister Aelia, you're my goddess" Jack's face brightened hearing Gaya and if it wasn't for the crowd, he would have kissed her feet and showed his gratitude.

"Take these and go before I regret my choice" Gaya tossed Nyla's pay cube back after taking the gold coins for three Healing potions.

"Hey we are standing in the queue here" some disciples expressed their objection at Gaya after they saw Jack taking three healing potions and leaving.

"Shut up, are you my minions?" she asked the disciples

"No"

"Do you want to be?" the disciples were bewildered by the question but shook their heads after a few seconds.

"No"

"Then shut the fuck up before I make you" 

The sale went for another couple of minutes before Michael ran out of ingredients to brew more potions but fortunately, he had enough to sell it to all the disciples in the wall.

"You did a good job by setting up a shop here" Michael reaped more Badass points and became richer because of Gaya's quick thinking. He patted her on the back and decided to gift her the bow as he had no use for it unless he spent his badass points buying the Book of Archery.

"You can keep the bow as my gift to you"

"It's only fair since I'm the one who knows how to handle a bow" Despite her haughty answer, her loyalty towards him increased by 2% and that was good enough for him.

"Ghost" suddenly Michael heard Sadie's gentle voice and turned to see her breathing heavily. Her face was red wh scanning from top to bottom.

She rushed towards him and halted her steps just a couple of inches away from him. He could feel her hot breath and her sweet scent.

"Is she your girlfriend?"

"What?! Girlfriend?! NO!" Sadie's sudden question startled Gaya as she shouted.

"N" Before even he could say no, Sadie wrapped her hands around his neck and closed his mouth with her mouth.
