Global Beast Mastery: Only I Can See the Hints-Chapter 495 : A Special Feeling

"Honored guest, are you interested in seeing something of higher quality? No problem. The first floor hall mainly displays Silver quality mystical beast eggs, along with Blue quality alchemy and forging materials."

"On the second floor, the items are far more valuable. The third floor, though the smallest, holds the finest goods Purple quality weapons, alchemy materials, and forging components. There are also Gold Platinum quality mystical beast eggs and even some Orange quality equipment and materials."

"Recently, our chamber has been particularly fortunate we've acquired two Emerald quality mystical beast eggs. They are incredibly rare. Would you like to take a look?"

A staff member of Chia Chamber of Commerce spoke with utmost respect to the well dressed man and woman who had entered alongside Charles.

As for Charles and Orion, no one approached them. The two simply stood in the hall, occasionally catching fleeting glances from the staff quick, dismissive, uninterested.

Orion didn't react much. After all, she wasn't here to buy anything. However, when she noticed the contemptuous looks from other guests, she understood the reason immediately it was their clothing.

Her outfit was old, clean but undeniably cheap looking.

A faint discomfort settled in her heart. She wanted to leave as soon as possible.

She turned to Charles, only to find that he remained perfectly calm, casually scanning the displayed goods as if he hadn't noticed the dismissive stares around him.

"There's nothing here that interests me. Let's check out the second floor." Charles turned to Orion and spoke in an even tone.

He had overheard the staff's conversation and understood that the second floor goods were superior, while the third floor housed Orange quality items and the ultra rare Emerald mystical beast eggs.

More than that, he was hoping to find some good wine. Mia hadn't had the chance to enjoy a new bottle in quite some time.

Just as Charles and Orion approached the staircase, a man in a tailored suit, wearing a practiced professional smile, stepped forward. His stance resembled that of a floor manager, and he slowly positioned himself directly in their path.

"Is there anything I can assist you with?" The man asked with a polite smile but he deliberately blocked their way to the stairs.

Charles frowned slightly. His voice remained calm but firm. "Not right now. I want to take a look upstairs."

The man's smile didn't waver, but his tone carried a subtle edge.

"Upstairs? The items in the first floor hall should be more than enough for you to 'browse.' The second and third floors… are reserved for our chamber's esteemed guests."

He subtly emphasized the word "browse" as if making it clear Charles wasn't seen as a real customer.

The meaning of the man's words was already clear: from their appearance, Charles and Orion clearly didn't look like the type of people who could afford to shop on the second or third floors. They were simply ordinary people who belonged in the first floor area.

Charles felt a bit helpless. According to Orion's introduction, Chia Chamber of Commerce was supposed to be the best chamber in City of Harmony, yet the staff still acted this way.

"What kind of customers do you consider 'esteemed'?" Charles said calmly. "Those two just now were taken upstairs without question."

At this point, he was only interested in seeing if there was anything worth his attention and then asking the people in the chamber about Wind Dew and Gold Essence.

"Apologies, but I still suggest you stay on the first floor and browse," the man said with an unchanging smile. However, there was now a hint of annoyance in his eyes. He seemed to be thinking that he had already made his point, but these two still weren't taking the hint.

The commotion attracted the attention of others. A middle aged man, who appeared quite refined, stepped forward and walked toward them.

"What's going on? What's the issue? There are plenty of guests in the hall looking on," the middle aged man, Ember, asked. He was a member of the Tomosthe Wayne Family and was responsible for overseeing the operations of Chia Chamber of Commerce in City of Harmony.

The man who had just been arrogantly blocking Charles and Orion's way suddenly broke into a fawning smile, bending slightly at the waist. "Vice Branch Leader, it's nothing serious. These two insist on going to the second floor, but they don't seem like they're capable of purchasing anything from up there."

Ember frowned. With his years of experience in business, he knew that a small number of Beast Masters didn't care about appearances or possessions. These individuals were often powerful and well off, but they didn't flaunt it.

Ember first glanced at Orion, and under his gaze, Orion instinctively felt a bit uncomfortable and lowered her head slightly.

Then, his gaze turned to Charles. To Ember's surprise, Charles didn't look uncomfortable at all under the pressure. Instead, he calmly met Ember's gaze with a look that was serene and deep, like the ocean unruffled, yet carrying an indescribable force.

"Esteemed guest, please wait just a moment," Ember said with elegance. "I will personally take you upstairs and introduce you to our various products." With that, he pulled the man who had been blocking Charles aside.

"Idiot, how many times have I told you? Every guest must be treated equally! Just because your last name is Wei doesn't mean you can act above others!" Ember's voice was unusually harsh.

After reprimanding the man, Ember personally led Charles and Orion up the stairs to the second floor.

Charles didn't feel anything unusual, but Orion, subconsciously, moved closer to him.

This was a sign of insecurity, and it seemed that even Orion, who had a tough personality, couldn't help but feel uneasy when facing the influential figures of Chia Chamber of Commerce.

Upon reaching the second floor, Ember naturally asked, "Sir, is there anything you need? High quality weapons and equipment, mystical beast eggs, forging materials, alchemy materials?"

"Do you have orange quality metal materials? Or any rare fine wines?" Charles replied.

Ember gave Charles another casual glance before nodding slightly, leading him through the second floor for a while.

Soon, the three of them arrived in front of a display case. Inside the glass display, there was an exquisite porcelain bottle, glowing in a fiery red color, looking stunningly beautiful.

"This is a 150 year old Blazing Clouds of Fire. It's a specialty wine from the Haunted Marsh. If you haven't tasted it from the Haunted Marsh, you must try it."

"After a Beast Master drinks Blazing Clouds of Fire, it expands their blood vessels and can provide a certain boost to their strength." Ember continued to introduce the wine while closely observing Charles's reaction.

This was the first time Ember had encountered such a calm young man. Normally, people from humble backgrounds would feel uncomfortable in such a situation and would unconsciously avoid eye contact. On the other hand, those from noble backgrounds would either show disdain or be very interested.

It was rare to find someone like this young man who showed no emotions at all truly impressive.

"How much?" Charles interrupted Ember's introduction. This wine wasn't for him to drink, but as long as Mia hadn't tried it, it would be fine.

"This? Our chamber is currently running a promotion, so it's only 18 gold coins." Ember said with a smile.

Charles frowned slightly. Eighteen gold coins was a bit pricey, but thinking back to the wines he had bought before, Mia didn't seem to have her loyalty increased after drinking them. On top of that, buying this could serve as a reward, encouraging Mia to train even harder.

With that in mind, it seemed like a good deal!

"Sir, if you think the price is high..." Ember began, but was immediately interrupted by Charles.

"The price is acceptable. However, I have one question this Blazing Clouds of Fire can be consumed by mystical beasts, right?"

Charles recalled an important detail that some fine wines were made in a process similar to crafting miracle drugs. Though they were rare, they provided benefits that regular wines didn't. However, such wines often had restrictions, such as being unsuitable for mystical beasts.

"Sir, there are no restrictions on drinking Blazing Clouds of Fire. If there were, it wouldn't be at this price. Allow me to briefly explain a few things to keep in mind when drinking this wine." Ember maintained his polite attitude.

Charles shook his head and spoke, "No need. Just tell me what I should be aware of regarding mystical beasts drinking Blazing Clouds of Fire. I'm buying it for my mystical beast."

Upon hearing this, Orion, who had been following closely behind, suddenly looked up and stared at Charles with wide eyes.

Had she heard that correctly?

A wine costing eighteen gold coins, and he was buying it for a mystical beast to drink?

Wasn't that wasteful?

Even Ember, the manager of Chia Chamber of Commerce in City of Harmony, was a bit taken aback. He carefully replayed Charles's words, demeanor, and actions in his mind there wasn't the slightest hint of pretense!

To give the precious Blazing Clouds of Fire to a mystical beast? Ember felt it was a waste!

However, out of professional courtesy, Ember didn't say anything. He simply went ahead and explained the precautions and then packaged up the bottle of Blazing Clouds of Fire.

At that moment, Charles glanced toward the staircase in the distance and saw the man and woman from earlier continuing to head up to the third floor.

Charles then turned to Ember and said, "I'd like to go up and take a look, and I also want to inquire about some information."

Ember didn't hesitate for a second. He immediately turned and began leading the way.

So, Charles followed Ember to the landing where the stairs to the second and third floors met. His eyes subtly shifted to the woman in the pair.

There was something about this woman that Charles felt a particularly strange sensation.
