“Sure, that’s no problem…” The man got three steps before turning back to look at me in shock. “Umm. Did you say all of the stock?”
“Yes, I want to buy it all. You do not need to worry about if it is in a box or not. I will take the boxes they are in as well.” I couldn’t help but smile slightly since the man seemed completely dumbfounded about my request.
“I-I will need to talk to the manager. Do you mind holding on for a second?” The man asked.
“That’s fine.” I nodded in response. I did not mind waiting at all. I knew what I was asking was a bit much, but I would rather do this than take what was on the shelves.
It took a few minutes, but soon, the man and another older man walked over. “Are you the one asking for our entire stock?”
“Yeah. We can pay double if you want.” Before I could even answer, Angel stepped forward and spoke up. “We want all non-perishables. All of them, as long as they have a long expiration date, we will take them.”
“Look, I don’t want to sound mean, but we can’t just give up our entire stock. What would we sell?” The man did not seem to like the idea of making a large amount of money in one go.
“Huh? Mr… Reynolds.” Angel continued: “I do not think you seem to understand. If I wanted to, I could just call your boss and offer to buy the entire store out. I am sure he would give it up for the right prices. I am asking you to sell me your stock out back. The shelves will still be full. You only need to order more. So what if you need to close for a few days? Not only will you sell all your stock outback, but you will also get double the price. I do not think what I am asking is very unreasonable.”
Angel was the one from a business family, I could only stand back and watch. But I could see Hilde’s lips curling up into a smile. It seemed she liked what she was seeing. I nudged her with my elbow and sent a message over our connection: “She’s mine.”
“Master, I would never dare do such a thing! I just think that Madam is quite reliable in certain situations.” Hilde replied. It seemed she had a high opinion of Angel as of late.
“Miss, I am sorry. Even if you were to call my boss, the answer would still be the same.” The manager did not seem to want to relent. I sighed as I watched Angel take out her cell phone. But what surprises me is how calmly these two are treating us. It was as if we were not an angel or a demon. They were treating us as normal customers.
“Yeah, Dad, I want to buy the stock out back, but he won’t let me. Yeah… can you call the owner? Alright. I will wait.” Angel hung up and put her phone away before looking at the man. “Please wait five minutes. My father is contacting your boss now. Don’t worry, though. If he tries to fire you for any reason, let me know. I will make sure you keep your job.”
“Alright, we can wait.” The man did not seem to care. If anything, it was a small break for him.
I had to admit these two were dedicated to their jobs. Neither wanted to break the rules, even in the face of money. On top of that, they have been polite this entire time. Their patience was very good. But then again, dealing with the public means needing a lot of patience some times. But because they were treating us as normal people, I decided it would be good to give them a small reminder. “I hope you both can log in soon and begin leveling up.”
“I wish I could.” The middle-aged man replied. He seemed a little crestfallen.
“I am about to buy my gear tomorrow. I know who both of you are. I have seen your interview. With how things are going, I decided to take your advice.” The older man surprised me I did not take him to be someone who would believe my words. Not to mention, he knew who I was but still stuck to his principles.
I thought for a minute before saying, “Since you can’t afford it. Give me your address and I will have one sent over today. You both have been kind to us despite our appearance. Kindness should be repaid with kindness.”
“No, you don’t have to…” The middle-aged man seemed taken aback by my offer but I could see that he really wanted to accept even though it seemed his morals were keeping him from doing so.
“If Zoe wishes to give you something, just take it. Like she said, despite how we look, you have been kind to us.” Angel also chimed in with a smile.
“Then I thank you… My address is...” Right after the middle-aged man gave us his address, A call came for the manager.
