Noah notified Marvin who calmly witnessed Dale's corpse burning ablaze and melting to ashes, leaving behind a fireproof pouch with spatial type magical rune designs.

Magic Pouch (Low-rank)

[Status: Ownerless

Description: A small pouch with a wide space inside. It once belonged to Dale Gale but now it's ownerless.

Space: 69/100 items in storage]

It was a spatial storage treasure and since Dale was its owner, those sixty-nine items are bound to be rare treasures.

No doubt, ignoring the stunned crowd with mouth agape and a shocked expression, Marvin, the scion of time walked towards the spatial pouch and picked it up with a hearty smile on his face. However, his face was covered by a mask so no one saw his expression.

Celeste, on the other hand, had shut her eyes, afraid to witness the corpse of young master Dale burning to death. However, the strong putrid scent of a corpse burning assaulted her nose and shook her senses. At that very moment, her heart started to feel bad. She felt dizzy, and at the same time, she felt somewhat afraid of the masked man that stepped towards her.

"Do not be afraid. I mean no harm." Marvin said gently. Internally, he thought, 'She is too cute! Damn, I can't resist the temptation!

Thus, he raised one of his hands and pated the little beauty on her head. He couldn't resist the temptation of doing that, thus he did that.

Little beauty cheeks turned rosy due to embarrassment. She may seem like a young girl but she was an adult who was already at the age of marriage. Getting patted like that was a huge embarrassment for her.

'Oh my God! With bright red cheeks, she looks even cuter. I can't hold himself back from pinching such cute cheeks,' Marvin thought when he looked at her face that kept on turning red and redder. His free hand raised on instinct and grabbed the lovely red chubby cheeks of the little cuties. He then ravaged them by pinching the soft flesh repeatedly. However, he was gentle with his actions.

His wanton actions earned him a stern glare from the ocean eyes of the little beauty.

Celeste then blinked at him as she felt intimidated by those silvery eyes that shone so bright that she felt like a mortal standing in the presence of a God. Not daring to continue looking at him in the eyes, she lowered her head.

"Thanks thank you for saving me," Celeste said to Marvin while accepting his pats and pinches with a face flushed red just like a ripe tomato.

Deep down, she was touched by his actions. When no one was willing to help her, he stepped out and killed the bullies got her. Moreover, she felt conflicted. She liked and at the same time didn't like the fact that this man with godly eyes was bullying her cheeks and patting her head. As these conflicted thoughts revolved in her head, she exposed a cute and lovely smile to the gentleman.

The little squirrel has expressed her gratitude and the young man felt good. Furthermore, her smile made her look even cuter than before and he felt captivated by her cuteness.

Marvin felt what it means to experience an overdose of cuteness! It was sweet, sweeter than honey!

"Don't mention it, they were acting way out of line and in a sense, blocking me from getting what I want," Marvin said generously. He lovely looked at her. There wasn't a single trace of lust in his gaze. It was the same as a brother looking at his younger sister.

"What you want?" Celeste asked, somewhat curious somewhat confused.

Did the masked man with godly eyes want her? Could it be that he's attracter to her cuteness? But she didn't saw any lust in her? 'Maybe, he fell in love with me at first sight,' Celeste internally thought and her face blushed harder.

She didn't know what to say if he asked her out but one thing was for certain, this little hardworking beauty wouldn't decline the request of her savior.

Contrary to her expectation, Marvin didn't hold such feelings for her.

Pointing at the items at her stall, he said, "I want to buy some items from your stall, you don't mind selling them to me, do you?" 

He had come here to buy items necessary to create talismans. The materials needed to create talismans are a magic power conducting magical brush, talisman paper, and Elemental heart blood of the magical beast.

"Ah, yes. Please, what would you like to buy," Celeste replied and walked up to her stall. Internally, she was laughing at herself. In her heart, she knew that a powerful man like him wouldn't be interested in an ordinary girl like her, no matter how captivating and cute her looks are.

"I want to buy Mana conducting magical brush, ten talisman paper, Heart elemental blood of..." Marvin started to tell her what items he is buying. Both started to converse with one another, completely ignoring the existence of the crowd. For a while, some people looked at them but then they continued with whatever they were doing. The death of Dale Gale wasn't a sensational event for the regulars of the black market.

Death was very common here. Plus, most deaths went unnoticed here. However, Dale's death won't be. He was the young master of the Gale family, after all. 

Mana conducting magical brush (rank-10) 5000 Federation Dollars

A vial of Water Type Elemental heart Blood (rank-10) 500 Federation Cash Platinum

Vials of Darkness Type Elemental heart Blood (rank-10) 2 1000 Federation Cash Platinum

Vials Light Type Elemental heart Blood (rank-10) 2 1000 Federation Cash Platinum

Wind Type Elemental heart Blood (rank-10) 500 Federation Cash 

Earth Type Elemental heart Blood (rank-10) 500 Federation Cash

Thirty Talisman paper (rank-10) 5000 Federation cash.

After calculating the price of the items, she said, "It'll be 12500 Federation cash,"

Celeste gave him a discount of 1000 federation cast.

"Why one thousand less?" Marvin asked while looking at the beauty.

"It's a thank you gift for saving my life," Celeste knew that her life would have ended if the masked man didn't help her. She wanted to give something to him in return for saving her. What's better than a discount.

The price of these items in a normal store was far more than this. A rank-10 magical brush is sold for 7500 Fed Cash. However, he got one for 5000 Fed Cash. She was already selling it cheap, barely making any profit. The discount will turn her profit into a loss.

Marvin knew that she was a poor girl. He didn't have the heart to take advantage of this silly lass.

"I already received my rewards for helping you, there's no need for this." The rewards Marvin mentioned were not only the rewards for completing the quest but also pinching her cheeks and rubbing her head. 

Placing his hand on her petite small hands, Marvin placed Fifteen thousand Federation cast in her warm, soft hands. Thus leaving her with a good amount of profit. She made 750+$ in a single day.

She couldn't believe it and looked at Marvin in disbelief. 

"Thank you for the purchase. This means a lot for me," Celeste said with a bow while looking at him with a fervent gaze. Her looks didn't contain lust but worship. She was looking at him in the same way a fanatic believer of god would worship his god. It's because, in her heart, she was moved by his help and believed that he was an angel sent by heaven to help her out.

And since they were worlds apart, her an ordinary human and him a powerful ability user, she believed that there's no way anything romantic is gonna happen between them.

"In some days, I will be needing more talisman items. I hope to purchase them at the same price from you. If you don't mind me becoming your regular customer, give me a way to contact you," Marvin said smilingly. 

Her prices were affordable. Moreover, it was more than 25% cheaper than the market price. Thus, he wanted to strike a deal with her.

"I'll take you up on that offer." Celeste hurriedly offered her contact number to the masked man with a cute smile on her face. His offer was a god sent gift for her.

They both knew that after today's incident, Celeste will find it hard to return to the black market. The experts from the Gale family will surely come looking for them. Marvin was wearing a mask. Thus, he was saved from such trouble. However, the same can't be said for Celeste. Coming to the black market after today was like throwing herself in a death pit.

"See ya later then. I advise you to leave the black market as soon as possible. There's no guarantee that experts of the Gale family are still unaware of the death of their young master." Marvin advises the beauty before walking away.

"I'll do as you say. Take care of yourself." She nodded with a sweet shout as she saw him walking away.
