Chapter 5: Drug of An investment Banker

It had been three days since that incident, it was neither a long period of time or short.

In these three days David had managed to adjust to his newfound life. He had also bought himself a new pair of clothes, to make him look more charismatic.

Dressed in a plain white shirt with a long navy blue overcoat on top to create a classy appearance.

He had to dress neatly to make himself more charismatic and approachable as this was part of his job.

"Yawn!"

David was sitting on the first floor with a cup of coffee in front of him waiting for his first customer to arrive.

He hopefully looked at the entrance of the bank from time to time. In these three days not a single soul had visited his bank, his career as an investment banker might come to an end at this rate.

He had a feeling that the bank might cook something impossible, if he himself didn't take the initiative.

Suddenly, an astute middle aged man appeared at the entrance of the bank. He had a slim figure and his brown coloured hairs were neatly tied in a bun behind his head.

He was looking at the interior of the bank in confusion and when his eyes landed on the Origin Guard he unconsciously flinched and the eyes of the middle aged man flashed with strange light.

The name of the middle aged man Bryan Krack, he was a local merchant in the city of Deadwood.

It wasn't his first time coming to Deadwood street but he hadn't noticed this bank before.

Bryan wasn't someone who was ignorant about this main financial institution, as his business mostly survived because of the timely credit provided by the bank in his early days.

Before he entered Bryan didn't really care about it but once he was inside his pupils shrunk and he unconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air..

Bryan was easily able to recognise the guard standing beside the entrance as a cultivator

As if that wasn't shocking enough, he noticed one more thing, the cultivator didn't seem to be the owner of this place.

"Then who was in-charge here?"

Just when this thought came to Bryan's mind his eyes met David sitting at one corner of the hall, calmly looking at him with a plain gaze.

"Welcome to the Bank of Eternal Origin Gentleman."

"How can I help you?"

David got up from his seat and bowed while respectfully addressing the middle aged men.

David's philosophy was simple, he wanted to treat the customer like a king.

For him a customer wasn't someone who came to his place once in a lifetime, but someone who was going to come again and again.

But before that he just wanted to have a quick idea about his customer.

[Request for status report.]

[Target- Bryan krack]

[Cost- 5000 spirit stones]

[Yes/No]

"Holy moly 5000 spirit stones that's lot of amount for him"

David inwardly commented while maintaining his poker face. From his past experience he judged Bryan as a worthy customer and not to go ahead with the status report.

"Bank of Eternal Origin"

Bryan repeated those words while frowning hard, his brows were tightly scrunched up together. He had never heard about such a bank.

Although he was suspicious, his circumstances didn't allow him to question the authenticity of David's words.

"Pardon my rudeness! Let me introduce myself first. You can call me Bryan and for the fact why am I here.. isn't it pretty obvious."

Bryan calmly spoke while looking at David.

Hearing his words David smiled and pointed towards the chair.

"Let us discuss the details over a cup of coffee."

Hearing David words the expression on Bryan's face stiffend.

"Coffee?" Sёarᴄh the ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Bryan had no idea what David was talking about although he was familiar with cups but he had never heard about Coffee.

David walked ahead and sat down on one of the nearby chairs.

Following behind David, Bryan also wanted to sit down and see what coffee really was?

However, when he tried to move the chair closer his expression froze.

"What the….!"

Confused, Bryan took a closer look at the chair, upon closer inspection he found the chair to be a little familiar.

"Yes, city lord mansion." Suddenly his eyes flashed with clarity. Moreover, upon a closer look everything in this hall screamed luxury.

"Here is your coffee Mr. Bryan, hope you like it."

David placed a cup made of unknown material filled with pre black coffee.

After placing the cup and not waiting for Bryan's reaction. He in a practiced motion bought the cup closer to his mouth and took a sip.

Throwing caution to the wind Bryan also took a sip with a little bit of expectation as he couldn't feel the presence of mana inside the cup.

As no matter how good this coffee was without the presence of mana it was worthless.

The moment drops of coffee entered his mouth, Bryan's lips quivered. He felt as if it was struck by lightning.

The world around became much more clearer, the bottleneck that he was stuck on started to disappear as if it never existed to begin with.

A single sip of coffee caused such huge changes in his body. Bryan found his situation quite laughable.

The decades of training and resources that he had consumed felt worthless in front of this seemingly ordinary black liquid without mana.

In this hall Bryan wasn't the only one who was shocked. David was also looking at the changes in facial expressions of Bryan in wonder.

He was wondering how could human beings display such a myriad of emotions while sipping coffee.

He wondered if there was really something different about it.

In order to test, he took a large mouthful and gulped it down. However, to him it was the same old coffee, bitter and sweet at the same time.

"Thank-you so much Mr…?"

"David" David just casually threw his name.

"Thank-you so much Mr. David I will forever remain indebted."
