Time 9:15

Location Sky Blossom City, Guild association mall, Guild Spa – Luxury Section.

Opening my eyes to a grand and lavish environment, I was confused, thankfully I was greeted by Susan’s excited face.

“Good Morning Sir, you’re awake finally!”

“W-what! Why? How long was I unconscious?”

“To be exact 4 hours 10 min.”

“That’s it! you sounded as I slept for days!”

“You looked like you would, so I brought you the Luxury spa package. Thanks to their continuous treatment you were able to awaken so early and in top condition.”

“What! Luxury Spa Package! Who is paying?”

“Of course me, I don’t mean to be rude but if you can walk I would love it if we had this conversation some other places because I am paying hundreds of dollars for every minute we are here.”

“What, noo… I am still sleepy, come after another hour or two.” I said facetiously.

“Sir, please don’t pull my leg.”

“Hey Susan let me officially introduce myself to you, My name is Dalton Wyatt you can call me big brother Dalton or big brother Wyatt. “

“Hey! I am the older one don’t forget the seniority here. My name is Susan Tucci you have to call me big sis Susan.”

In Guild Association Mall, customer privacy is at most priority. Therefore the Sales representative don’t know any of the customer info unless the customer chooses to.

“Tucci, it’s a funny name.”

“Arh! Don’t get me started. Come let’s go for breakfast.”

Susan claiming seniority in terms of age I laughed it off, comparing age as transmigrator it sounded funny. Thankfully Susan also saw a friend in me and did not insist on me calling her big sis.

“Booking luxury spa package and a private room for breakfast aren’t you rich”

“Nope, the Luxury spa package is a thank you gift from me and as for the private room it’s one of the perks of being an associate auction manager.”

“Congrats! Associate auction manager is a higher position than permanent staff right, you don’t sound happy.”

“Nah! Let’s just enjoy our breakfast shall we.”

“Come on Tucci spill it out, what is it? “

“I am an Associate auction manager just for one day.” Said Tucci frustratedly.

After informing the guild management of her origin card Susan was promised the last permanent staff spot. But at the last minute, a higher ranking member used nepotism to get his relative the last spot.

The reason given for last-minute changes was that Susan’s origin card made her highly qualified for a permanent staff position and so she would be directly promoted to the Associate auction manager position.

“What do you mean by just for one day?”

“Forget it, by the way, thank you for creating an awesome origin card for me, I never knew that armour could be in liquid form and have intelligence. Very innovative, How did you come up with this idea?”

“Susan, Don’t change the topic! Tell me what is going on? Maybe there is something we can do.”

“No, there is nothing we can do. You have already helped me a lot. I am already over it.”

I decided to just intently glare at her until she caved. And she did,

Susan’s new title comes with new responsibilities and she is still on probation.

Turns out being an Associate auction manager is harder than it looks they have to conduct one auction every week. It’s a very competitive job because the auction manager has to fight for a good venue and time slot to conduct an auction and also gather the right audience and the right items for the auction, with other auction managers.

Susan also has to conduct an auction today, being the new guy the auction house will provide her with the venue, time slot and audience but she has to come up with the right items for auction.

Susan time slot is 12:30 to 13:30, for an hour auction period Susan will have to come up with a minimum of 10 valuable Items. Susan couldn’t gather 10 auction-able items just in one morning. If she is unable to do so then she will be fired from the associate auction manager position deeming her unfit for the position.

This was all within the calculations of the guild management, this way they had compensated Susan by giving her an opportunity and they would also avoid a possible lawsuit when they fired her tomorrow. Corruption and office politics has corroded society, be it this world or the other world.

“See I told you there is nothing we can do, come on let’s enjoy all the perks of being an associate auction manager of guild association mall before I am fired.”

“Are you stupid?”

“Hey!” 𝘣𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙．𝘤𝘰𝘮

“Then what? How can you let go of such an opportunity to make money?”

“What do you mean?”

“First tell me what kind of audience are you accepting in your time slot. I am serious! answer me.”

“12:30 to 13:30 is lunch hour so it won’t attract a huge audience and since the guild management is expecting me to crash and burn they will not be sending any important guests. So, the audience will be mostly made of middle-aged women and some small-time Merchants who are hoping to get lucky and get a bargain.”

“Okay then we have to move now, you go and create a hype for your auction telling that 10 perfect F rank female armours each in four variation colours will be auctioned in your auction.”

“Wait! I don’t understand, what are you saying? can’t you be clearer? And who will be providing these mind-blowing perfect F rank female armours ?.”

“I will provide you with 10 perfect F rank female armour card’s each in four variation colours for the auction. now you go create a hype let’s hope that we get lucky and attract some big fish.”

“What! 10 female armours each in four colours that are 40 cards in total, you don’t have enough time to create those cards. You don’t have to push yourself for me. I am already satisfied with just the origin card.”

“Let me care about creating the cards and I am not doing this for you fool! I am doing this for money. I already planned on doing this to gather some funds for myself. Now your auction seems a good place to start. Be thankful that I am willing to share some of my light with you. If you don’t want to then I can always find other auction managers.”

While creating the Slime armour origin card I had to transfer and strengthen soul pathways nearly 200 times, during that process my active soul control broke through to 17% and also my mental strength seems to have become stronger and more flexible. It took me nearly 7 hours to create the origin card, and thanks to my new found strength I was confident that I could create the said amount of cards within the said period.

Ever since I made huge profits by selling the Gale rabbit leather boots, I have always planned to sell more perfect equipment card’s to make money because money in this world can make me stronger and increase my chance of survival. But since I was short on the budget I didn’t put the plan into motion. But now I can only borrow the extra money putting aside my pride for the time being.

“No! I want to but.. “

“We don’t have enough time at our hands, go and bring me five sets of ingredients for these 10 F rank female armour cards. And publish a catalogue containing these 10 armours and share it with all your connections. Quickly! Assuming we are lucky, we will attract some deep pockets. I only have 75,000$ on me right now, see if you can get a loan for the ingredients and the copyright of the cards, we can pay back after the auction.”

The 10 F rank female armours I had selected were the most popular mid-range female armours that were currently trending in many famous magazines. I could select E rank armours but I decided against that because we were short on funds and I didn’t know how deep the audience’s pocket. If the cards were too costly for the audience then I would be the one losing money.

After seeing my prowess in creating the Slime Armor origin card Susan no longer had any doubts about my ability in card creation. so, she provided me with ingredients in haste and then she left to set the plan in motion. Getting the ingredients I didn’t waste any more time and began the card creation process. One of the reasons I choose the most trending female armours even though their copyright costs a huge amount of money, hoping that their popularity with attracting some big bosses and wealthy women.
