"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Grace asked as she adjusted the outfit that Luke had prepared for them.
She had already decided to help him in his plan for revenge and accepted that there were plenty of things he was going to do that were questionable, but she couldn't help but feel uneasy about going to a black market. All she knew about it was that people went there to buy or sell illegal items.
The dress he had given her didn't help her nerves, as it was far too short for her liking. It only reached down to her thighs, revealing far too much skin. There were also no sleeves, and they just barely covered her chest. She couldn't imagine going around wearing this.
"Yes, the princess wants us to handle the black market," Luke said as he adjusted the cuffs on his dress shirt. "This is the perfect chance to integrate ourselves."
"Won't we get caught?" Grace asked.
"She does have a point," said 'Kayla'. "How can you be so sure that the princess won

Luke frowned as they failed to find any clues regarding the black market. He would have thought that having the demon king and the demon's system would make this an easy quest, but apparently, because it was a quest, they couldn't give him any hints or outright tell him anything. The moment he learned of this, he thought he would bust a vein.The same applied to 'Kayla's' system as when he tried to use it to find the relevant information about it, he was blocked. At first, he thought he had been discovered, but 'Kayla' quickly explained that it was because she didn't have access to that information. Since she was that high in the rankings, there was a lot of information she was banned from viewing, such as current quests, as they were not in her area.As such, they had been forced to do it the old fashioned way and actually question the citizens. Even with Grace's strange ability to make the citizens like her, no one even hinted at anything strange or suspicious going

While 'Kayla' and Grace had been caught off guard by the sudden attack, Luke had been prepared for this possibility. Like he had initially suspected, she did hide a knife behind her back, and she was aiming for his jugular. He caught her wrist and forced her to drop the knife. Then he maneuvered her so her arm was twisted behind her back, and she was facing away from him."Let go," she demanded as she flailed around, trying to break free from his grip, but to no avail."And let you try to stab me again? I don't think so," he said.In the time all of this happened, 'Kayla' and Grace remained behind him, as they weren't sure what to do. Well, he was more inclined to believe the latter was unsure of what she should do. For the former, she probably figured that he had everything covered and didn't even try after she had quickly recovered from the surprise attack. It was better that way, as they would have probably gotten in the way, and she might have escaped.<

At his words, Luke nodded his consent. Samuel turned to walk back into the room, and Luke released Jessica, who ran towards her father while throwing death glares at them the whole time. He ignored this, as she deserved it for picking a fight with them, even though he had not raised a single hand against her except in self-defense.The trio followed them inside and studied their new surroundings. It was clearly an office, but whether or not it was the man's actual office was uncertain. Luke was inclined to believe it was just one of the many meeting rooms Samuel used to conduct business instead of his real office. After all, he had no reason to trust them and give them access to his private areas, even if they were valuable customers.Samuel motioned with his head at his daughter, who understood the unspoken instructions and ran off. He took a seat behind the desk, leaving the trio to take a seat on the couches. Luke sat on one couch, while 'Kayla' and Grace took the o

This time it got Grace's attention. One hundred gold pieces definitely had to be a large number. Luke was basically asking for one hundred times the amount the man had offered. She couldn't believe he could demand such a large amount. There was no way the man would accept the deal, and she wondered what Luke was thinking.Without missing a beat, Samuel said, "I'm afraid that's not possible. I can raise the price to five gold pieces at most.""Let's be honest here," said Luke as he stood up and approached the desk. Jessica tensed, ready to react if he tried anything funny. 'Kayla' and Grace reacted in the same way. "We both know how valuable mana stones are. They're priceless. What I'm asking for is actually cheaper than what I can actually get on the black market."Hearing that one hundred gold pieces for one mana stone was cheap nearly made Grace faint. She wished she knew how currency in this world worked. None of them had to worry about money before, as every

'Kayla' ended up nodding off as she waited for them to finish the negotiations, while Grace couldn't shake the tension out of her body. It felt as if something bad would happen the moment she relaxed. She wished she could be as easygoing as 'Kayla' was or be as confident as Luke. It was still hard to believe that the two of them would think so highly of her.It didn't make any sense. She wasn't an angel turned human or a human turned demon king who went back in time to redo everything for the sake of revenge. It was only because of Luke that she even got the chance to be a Saintess. No matter what he said, she couldn't imagine what her counterpart was like or think of even matching up to her.Thinking about how he talked about her counterpart or how his eyes seemed to gaze off to a time she wasn't a part of made her heart ache. He had been the one to approach her and make her feel safe. Even if it was only because of her counterpart, he had been her anchor this entire
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 70: Entering the Black Market (2)
When they stepped through, the trio found themselves in shock at what they saw. It was a literal market, with numerous people bustling around to examine some of the wares. Instead of shady people trying to sell items secretly for money, they saw vendors proudly selling their wares for everyone to see and to make a decision.This was completely different from what they had been expecting. They had anticipated being ushered quietly into their designated seating before the auction began based on Luke's past life and how the black market was protrayed in their old home. Samuel even said the black market was only for the select few, so how did that explain the crowded market.Realizing that Samuel hadn't stopped moving, they quickly followed after him, making sure not to lose him in the crowd. It would be bad if they ended up getting separated and having to navigate themselves in an unknown place. They stumbled their way through the people until they entered an alleyway.
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 71: Buying Items From the Black Market (1)
Whatever they had been imagining, this wasn't it. All of them had imagined that a black market would look like something else as long as it wasn't a market, despite the word being in there. If they didn't know any better, they would have thought they had stumbled upon a small market in the middle of nowhere. However, they all knew better or at least Luke did.Grace, on the other hand, looked on in undisguised interest at what they were doing while 'Kayla' appeared bored out of her mind. She obviously wanted the trip to be over already and was counting down the minutes until they returned back to the castle."Are you sure we're in the right place?" asked 'Kayla'."I assure you that is indeed the right place," said Samuel.Grace quickly asked her own question. "Why are they setting up?".He gave her a blank look before saying, "We're early. They haven't finished setting up yet.""What do you mean they're not done setting up?" demanded 'Kayla'
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 72: Buying Items From the Black Market (2)
Luke had never expected to see it here of all places. To think he would find a primitive globule here at the black market. It wasn't something people would think of selling or keeping for themselves. Most people regarded it as waste or garbage, but that was because no one currently knew what it was or its true worth. That was something Grace had discovered far into the future after studying it despite not being a mage.The owner eyed them before saying, "One gold piece."'Kayla' hissed at the price while Grace's eyes widened and Luke countered, "That's too much. Give it to me for 500 bronze pieces.""500 bronze pieces? You must be mad if you think you can get any item at that price," the man barked. "90 silver pieces.""I'm not spending that much money on something I plan on giving to one of the girls as a souvenir." He could feel 'Kayla' glaring at the back of his head, which he ignored. "800 bronze pieces.""You obviously don't know how much effo
