I Became A System

After hunting some B-rank monsters, until A, Aaron, and Cules returned to the city, of course, with the monster materials in the inventory of his shop in the Trader System.

He could also use it as Inventory? How useful, but not totally unlimited space since only five items can be stored for a long time.

The storage time takes 2 hours, still unlimited, and since he's going to sell it anytime, he exploited the use of it. And by the time they arrived in the city, he immediately opened the system.

Cules greeted Ellena. At first, she was surprised why a small bear was inside their house, but when she realized that it wasn't an animal but a summoned beast, she immediately took him into her embrace.

"Cules! You are so small!"

"Groooh~"

When the other girls noticed it, they couldn't help but ask a question.

"Master, is this your pet? He's cute!"

Ellena shook her head.

"It's not my pet but more to be appropriate, a friend. How did he even get this small?"

While inspecting the system, Aaron explained it to her.

'Wah! You were there, Aaron? I didn't notice.'

"You were too immersed in hugging Cules. Well, he achieved that size because of his ability to shrink his own body with magic. With it, you can have more time with him."

'Really?'

"Yeah. I noticed that you like the softness of his fur and that Cules also didn't mind being pet, so I kind of wanted him to be with you."

Of course, it wasn't his only purpose. But since it was unnecessary to mention it to her, he just left them.

'Where are you going?'

"I will check the newest system."

'Oh... Go ahead. Take your time.'

Aaron nodded with a smile then finally left them playing with Cules who was also enjoying it.

As Aaron headed straight to their room, he was still browsing the Trader System, amused by how things were working for him.

Perry: Holy Moly! He did it again! Another top-quality monster!

Stoneheart: It's easy, though. If only I could travel there, I could kill some.

LickMyass: IT'S NOT EASY! To get a kill like that, you need to be at least count-ranked! My uncle is a count. Then he went to that world and, guess what, his powers were weakened.

Gurl: Oh, please, shut up. It's not like an unproven rumor. It's already been proven that they were still strong. Simply admit it: nobles were abusing their privileges in order to amass more wealth.

LickMyass: The king will kill them if they don't focus on their mission. Use your brain for once, and it's not like there's no tracker to find deserters.

Just as when Aaron was enjoying their comments, he couldn't get more of them. Currently, he already had 3,500 coins after putting them into the auction for his 2nd and 3rd hunts.

Since he had enough coins, he was thinking of buying the demon tracker.

'What should I do? It's not like I'm rushing, but it's better to clean some while we are on it.' Aaron thought, then tapped the search button to search for the item.

He still has 4 materials on sale, and even if this thing is a scam, it's still better than not trying.

He clicked on the item, then looked at the price to see if it was still the same. When he was sure that it was the same, he clicked on the seller's info just to be sure.

'4-star review? It's not bad for someone who sells this expensive item. Really.'

When he was satisfied with the review, he put the item into the cart and bought it immediately.

[Please wait a few minutes for the processing...]

Aaron waited for about 3 minutes, then finally, the item was in his possession.

He took the item from the window and, immediately, a compass-like radar was in his embrace.

'It's still big for me, huh.'

He tried opening the tracker, but only a beep was heard.

[No kin nearby]

'I see... So this is something like a sensor. It's not totally a tracker. What bullshit. It only covers a small radius.'

The item only covers a 2 km diameter. And just as he wanted to curse the seller, he couldn't do so as it was his fault to be content with a lacking description.

If it was the only available tracking device on the market, and if there was even competition, it means that this item is open to the public. However, once this seller realizes it, he or she must have a connection with the government.

Dimensional trading is a black market; hence, no government can reach them. And since it was basically an illegal place to be for demons, it will be difficult to contact the seller.

'They are wary of buy-bust operations, huh.'

Having a hard time deciding, Aaron scrolled down through the information about the seller. It seems like it doesn't do meet-ups but was open for information trading.

'This is good. I should contact him with the pretext of buying more items and information. Whose stupidity will not like this opportunity?'

And an evil grin curled up on Aaron's lips as he clicked on another button in the window.

"Hey! Do you sell anything that can help in tracking demons?" Aaron relayed his message through the window.

[Hello, esteemed customer! I do sell different items on tracking. I have here a Hell Hound Invidog.]

"What is that?"

[It's an invisible dog that can track but is not actually alive. It's more like an item that can be used by injecting magical powers.]

"I see... How much is it? Do you need to register a scent for it so that it can work?"

[Not really. It immediately searches for a demon and will mark the coordinates for you.]

"Why didn't you put this on sale? Is it illegal to possess?"

[Yes. Especially here in our world. But since you are a noble and in Heart World #321, I offer you this one-time item.]

'One-time item, huh.'

"How much was it?"

[10,000 coins, sir.]

"That's a massive amount of coins. But don't worry, I will buy it. Be sure to put it on the reservation."

[Of course! I will put this on reserve. But can I ask if you can put a downpayment just to be sure that I won't waste my time?]

"Alright. Anonymous #120 sent you 2,000 coins."

[Thank you for the patronage!]

After that, Aaron closed the window and smiled again.

'This is amazing.. It's not like it's hard to earn that money. I feel like this will be the most cheat code for this fight!'
