"This is the Middle-Grade Sword, Sir." The young man spoke politely and entirely removed his misunderstanding. He realized that as a professional seller, he shouldn\'t prey on someone\'s secret.

And because Ray was holding his head up, he concluded that Peter was not a noble. After all, whether he is a personal guard or someone of greater power, it is impossible for a slave to raise his head when he is with the noble.

"How much is it?" Peter inquires as he examines the complete sword\'s details. It had no designs on the blade or hilt. It was quite straightforward.

"One Thousand Gold Coins!" The young man replies.

"Seriously! Isn\'t this just Middle-Grade? "Why is it so expensive?" The young man was once again perplexed by Peter\'s statements.

"Sir, every weapon is made with minerals and elements found on floor zero," Ray continued "Furthermore, there aren\'t many minerals and commodities on floor zero. That is why even a simple weapon is so expensive. More significantly, people aren\'t much stronger to hunt down the monsters."

"Oh! Hmm, okay, I\'ll buy this sword." Originally, he intended to buy a High-Grade or Top-Grade Sword, but after realizing that he could get them at a lower price after he reached the first floor, he opted to go with a Middle-Grade Sword.

There was a reason why he decided to buy a new sword. He likes using two sword styles rather than a single sword.

"Sir, yes! I\'ll finish this right away." When he heard Peter\'s comments, the young man\'s face lit up. He extended his hand to grasp the sword. Peter, on the other hand, adds it to his inventory and says.

"There is no need!" Then he pulls a purse containing a thousand gold pieces from his inventory and hands it to the young man.

"Ray, I\'m afraid the remaining one thousand gold coins won\'t be enough because this shopping alone cost me a thousand gold coins. Take these two mana coins and return to the manager with two thousand gold coins." When the young man with the gold coin leads Peter to the bottom floor, he pulls out the mana coins and hands them to Ray.

"B--- Bu-t Sir, I---I shouldn\'t hold these coins." Ray instantly backed away when Peter took out the mana coin. It wasn\'t offensive but he couldn\'t bear the risk if even a single coin get lost.

"Are you expecting me to walk the entire distance back?" Peter spoke as he glared at Ray with keen eyes. He\'s finally found an excuse to be alone, and he can\'t seem to let it go.

"No, Sir!" When Ray saw those razor-sharp eyes, he trembled. As he grabbed the coins from Peter, his hands trembled.

"Don\'t be worried! If somebody tries to harm you, simply inform them of my identity." When Peter saw his face, he sighed and patted his shoulder. He felt sorry to burden Ray in this way, but he had no option. He is unable to seek Flame Ore and Fire Spirit Grass alongside Ray.

After Ray has left the store, Peter turns to the young man and asks, "Do you know the place where I can obtain information?"

"Oh! If you wish to gather information, go to the city\'s southern outskirts. There is a hotel called Global. However, do not enter that hotel. The little house may be seen near the hotel. But don\'t go into that house either."

"From the side of the home, you can see the road. If you continue down that road, you will come to a stop in front of the tall building. That\'s the information office. You need to pay to inquire about anything." The young man spoke with a solemn expression.

"Alright!" Peter goes out of the store with a nod of his head. He takes the young man\'s advice and heads south. He arrives at the hotel after ten minutes. He takes that short route and arrives at his destination after another five minutes.

It was a very tall building covered with glass. It was far too luxurious for an information office. He was taken aback when he approached the revolving door. He hadn\'t expected to find a revolving door within the tower.

He also noticed a man standing at the gate. The dude was dressed in a red shirt and black pants. He gave a small bow when he spotted Peter. Peter nods and walks into the building.

As he enters, he notices a lady standing behind the desk. When he turns around, he notices that there aren\'t many people around. He approaches the lady and inquires, "Can I get the information I need from here?"

"Indeed, Mr. Peter! We can supply any type of information as long as you pay for it." The lady speaks with a wonderful smile on her face. Her hair was golden and tied back. She was dressed in a pink coat, a white shirt, and a pink skirt.

"You know me?" Peter stared at her, surprised, and inquired.

The lady grinned and pushed a screen panel that was linked to a mechanical arm. Peter is even more taken aback when he sees that screen. The face demonstrates his facial recognition and detail. It doesn\'t reveal anything about him other than his identity and a few details about his appearance.

"I\'d love to meet the person who designed this inside the tower." With a cuning expression, Peter chuckled.

"I\'m confident you will if you reach a higher floor." The lady smiles and asks, "So, what would you like to know?"

But, all of a sudden, she lifted her hand to stop Peter. She placed a chip and pressed it. It emitted a blue light in an instant, forming a barrier around him.

"I\'m wondering where I can get Fire Ore and Fire Spirit Grass. I\'d also like to know who the top-level members of the Heavenly Demon Guild and the Spirit Guild are. And, I will also like to know more about the fourth guild." Peter spoke as she lowered her hand.

"Oh! The first piece of information would cost you fifty gold coins. The second piece of information would cost you three hundred gold coins in total. And the final piece of knowledge will only cost you ten five gold coins." With a faint smile on her face, the lady spoke. She didn\'t express it on her face, despite the fact that she was filled with doubts in her heart.

When the ear pod in her ear started buzzing, she covered it with her palm. After a few seconds, she forced a smile on her lips and stated, "And, if you buy all of this information, I will give you something for free. Well, it wouldn\'t cost you anything in the first place."

\'Hmm! That\'s a lot of information. I didn\'t expect my second question to be so expensive. But I need to research them. I need to learn their skills. That is the only way for me to become stronger and obtain the main inheritance.\' Peter paused for a second, a cold glimmer in his eyes. He clenched his teeth and muttered, "I\'d want to buy all three pieces of information."

The lady nods her head and pulls the screen panel. She presses the screen times and showed it to him while explaining.

"Fire Dragon Guild specializes in Fire Ore. That is why every mine capable of producing Fire Ore is located beneath them. The only method to obtain Fire Ore is to purchase it from their guild or the black market. The former has several constraints, whilst the latter requires a lot of wealth. Depending on your bargaining skills, it can cost anything from two hundred gold coins to a thousand gold coins."

"Fire Spirit Grass, on the other hand, is difficult to find within the city. They can be available in selected stores from time to time. However, none of those stores currently stock it. You must go out and look in the western forest if you wish to find them."

"I have to warn you. The region is about five kilometers to the southwest of the forest from the starting point, and it is also home to Green Goblins."

Peter\'s face lights up as he hears her. Despite being irritated by his smile shortly after informing him of the risk, she continued her explanation as to the screen on the display changed to show two different people.

One of them was the short but overweight man, while the other was an elderly man dressed in white.

"In-floor zero, the man on the right who appears to be obese and short is the senior executive of the Heavenly Demon Guild. He is in charge of everything. He is also the southern noble."

"The tall man on the left is the Spirit God Guild\'s chief executive. He is also the northern noble."

Finally, she reclaimed the monitor attached to the mechanical arm and said, "The fourth guild is known as Ascender\'s Guild. This guild is a little different. Unlike other guilds, the only goal of this guild is to assist climbers in reaching higher floors."

"If you join them, they will always assist you by allowing you to join the dungeon raid party and training sessions. If you want to advance in your career, you should absolutely join them. If you exceed the majority of the other climbers, you will be able to compete for the Hidden Inheritances against the top rankers."

"You must invest two hundred gold coins to discover more about Hidden Inheritances."

"Nah!" exclaimed Peter, shaking his head.

"This is more than enough information for me. So, what about the extra information you wanted to share with me?"
