Chapter 370 Meeting The Manager

"Ahem," the waiter was as shocked as Ro by what William said. However, Ro's reaction was quite different, ending up his face getting wet by pink fluid.

He was more experienced at dealing with the eccentric customers coming here. He didn't show any anger on his face, took out a white tissue, and wiped clean the pink droplet of the drink off his face.

"Sure sir, but it's an exclusive membership that will cost ten million crystals per month."

"And I can come anytime, order anything I want?" Just hearing such a crazy price made Ro's face turn dark at the spot. And when she heard William's weirder and casual response, her face became totally black like a moonless clouded night.

"Sure sir, that's what the membership includes," the waiter nodded in a way that was void of any excitement. It wasn't the first time for him to meet such situations, and most if not all of those asking such questions were just dreaming about the impossible.

"In addition to that," but as a professional waiter, he kept doing his job without looking at the end result, "the membership will cover any number of meals ordered during the period of month. And that means sir can order meals for his friends as well. Also, sir can leave his residence place, get a special Message Paper from us. And then you can order anything you want at home anytime you want, and it will get delivered to your place as hot as possible."

"Fantastic!" William laughed, "then can you call the manager?"

"T… The manager?!!" It wasn't just the waiter who said this, but also Ro.

William intended to take this place as a base for the next few months. The task of gathering intel and killing dark spirit masters wasn't an easy or fast one.

And he liked it here! No matter how he looked at it, it was the perfect bunker one could ever dream of at the end of the world.

So, he planned to start expanding his reign here. And if he got such a chance to support his body and properly build it better, then he'd not flinch from doing this.

As for the insane price, he had a way to handle this.

"Hey, this isn't a joke," After the waiter left in a hurry and shock, Ro couldn't help but move her seat closer to his, whispered while looking around, as if she was afraid someone else would listen to their talk, "the manager is one of the strongest and scariest folks in the fort! Don't mess things up here! It's not just about face or showing off, I already gave up and you won. Let's move now before it'll be too late."

She even took the initiative, crossed his arm with hers, and tried to pull him away from his seat, intending to drag him all the way out of here.

"Hey, stop it," William shrugged his arm free from her clutches, "who said I'm fooling around? I'm here to do business!"

"And I like those who are straightforward and honest like you!"

Before Ro would try saying more to dissuade him, a weird voice appeared from their backs, startling both of them.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you…" the owner of this voice was a refined looking old man, looking strangely similar to the one who led them here in the first place, but a bit older.

He moved and sat in front of them, showing a faint smile on his face, one that told William he didn't buy what William intended to do here.

"It's nothing," William waved his hand casually, while Ro sat upright, a move that didn't escape William's eyes.

"I heard from my man that someone wants to speak with me about the Red membership of our place," he paused, assessing William up and down before adding, "but I have to admit, I never expected kids the age of my daughter to be the ones asking for me."

"Sorry to trouble you esteemed sir, we were leaving…" Ro even cupped her hands and bowed, in a clear signal to William about how dangerous and powerful this humble looking man was.

"I'm the one who asked for you," but against all her warning signals, William spoke in a strong tone.

"And here I am," the man waved both arms as his smile broadened a little bit, "but I have to tell you this, if you want to bargain about the price, or speak about paying in instalments, then sorry to disappoint you. This isn't allowed in our place."

"Who said I want this?" William rolled his eyes, before taking his most pricey item from his ring, "I want to ask if you accept trading in such items. If not, then I'm going to that place anyway, selling these in a big auction, collecting my money, and coming back here to take this membership home."

William motioned his head towards the direction of the Refos merchant group base.

The man didn't place any importance at all about meeting William and Ro. When the waiter came to him, informing him about two kids asking about the Red membership and asking for him, he took it as a childish joke.

He might be a person that was hard to deal with, but that was the case in other places but this one.

The Golden Fork restaurant belonged to his family for many generations, and he dealt in extra care with everything related to it.

He already saw lots of weird things over the years from the customers of his place. And so, he didn't place any of this in his mind, until he heard William's calm words, until he spotted the item William got in his hands.

"A dark gold core? Scarlet monster it is, right?" the eyes of this middle-aged man shone brightly for a brief second, while a storm of emotions raged inside his chest.

He lost his brother and family at the hands of one of these ferocious beasts.
