INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

"Alright, I think that's sufficient for today," Adam said as he exhaled slowly, weariness evident in his voice. He was sweating profusely as he had a heavy training session with William.

Just a few steps in front of him lay William, sprawled flat on the floor, his chest heaving with every breath. Sweat cascaded from his body as though he were a fountain.

It seemed like he was dead and anyone would have made that judgment to, if they didn't see the heavy breathing he was exhailing.

William himself felt that he was going to die and whenever he would think like that his body would miraculously heal him so that he can withstand the pain and take even more of it.

Hearing Adam's words felt like a salvation. For William, it was as though he had just received the greatest news of his life. Still prone on the floor, he gasped between fragmented words, "What!... Oh!... Yeah… Good… to… know..." His voice was weak, his speech halting, each word eked out between labored breaths.

With his message conveyed, William allowed his head to rest against the cool floor, closing his eyes. His body seized the opportunity to finally relax after the grueling training session. As he lay there, he pondered whether this decision— enduring such an intense regimen— was a stroke of genius or a reckless mistake.

Adam gazed down at him, a small smile tugging at his lips. 'Well, he should be this exhausted,' Adam mused. 'In fact, the kid should probably be unconscious by now.'

'Not everyone can endure five consecutive hours of training while carrying an additional 10 kilograms strapped to their body. Yet not only did the kid survive— he actually managed to fight back, albeit with faltering steps and took more than a few beatings.'

'Still, it's a remarkable feat.'

Adam concluded his thoughts, walked over to William, and gave him a firm pat on the shoulder. "Same time tomorrow, boss?"

William gave a weak nod, his joints creaking audibly with the slight movement.

'Yeah, I should probably stop pushing him so hard,' Adam reflected as he headed toward the door, shrugging it off. 'Something tells me I might regret it someday.'

After Adam exited the room, William remained still for a long while, silent and unmoving. Eventually, he forced himself to his feet, his movements slow and deliberate, each motion eliciting another painful crack from his strained joints. Grimacing, he groaned inwardly, 'One day, when I've grown strong enough, I swear I'll settle this score with Adam.'

As another joint popped painfully, he muttered under his breath, 'I get that the guy's training me, but damn! Does he even think about what he's doing to my poor body?'

Letting out a long, drawn-out sigh, William sank into a kneeling position, finding it a slight relief for his aching muscles.

"Alright," he murmured, "Adam's probably long gone by now. Let's take a look at that notification from earlier."

Earlier today, William had received a notification from his system, but he had been in the company of others and didn't want to draw attention, so he quickly dismissed it. Now, with no one around and the room free from security cameras, he figured it was the perfect time to investigate.

This rare moment of solitude was precious. Between overseeing work, dealing with Clawdia's constant interruptions, training with Adam, and collapsing into a nap after training, time for himself was scarce.

William glanced around the room one last time to ensure he was truly alone. Satisfied, he summoned the system, and the two notifications from earlier materialized in front of him, hovering in the air.

[ A New Item Has Been Unlocked in the Shop ]

[ A New Skill Has Been Unlocked in the Shop ]

He considered the two options briefly before selecting the first notification, which glowed with an ethereal brilliance.

[ A New Item Has Been Unlocked in the Shop ]

The words expanded, then disappeared with a soft hum, replaced by a new screen.

[ A Special Rare Item Has Been Unlocked In The Shop ]

William's eyes widened as he stared at the screen in disbelief, his jaw going slack. He could hardly process what he was seeing.

"This… This can't be real!" he stammered, astonished.

Displayed before him was an image of the legendary sword he had once acquired for Adam, accompanied by a detailed description.

[ The Broken Heaven Sword ]

[ Rank: Special Rare ]

[ Classification: Weapon ]

[ Description: This is the fractured half of the legendary blade known as The Sword of Heaven and Hell. Though only a remnant of the once-mighty weapon, it remains a force that cannot be easily disregarded. Those who have wielded it know it as a sword destined for the strongest of warriors. ]

[ Effects:

[ Location: Currently in the possession of a retired assassin named Adam, located at the Elysium Villa of William Trust, in the Golden Arey Society, Halborough City. ]

[ Price: 750 Gold Coins ]

William's eyes remained wide in shock as he stared at the details. He couldn't believe what he was reading. Was this some sort of system glitch? Or could this actually be real?

A moment later, his shock gave way to excitement. His eyes lit up, and he leapt into the air, shouting, "YES! THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!"

He continued his celebration for a few moments before settling down, his gaze returning to the screen. "To think this is actually possible… This opens up so many new opportunities."

His mind began racing with possibilities, imagining countless scenarios— both plausible and fantastic— that could arise from this discovery.

"This means I could theoretically purchase any sword… or…" William hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Or perhaps this is a one-time offer, exclusive to this specific sword, or to rare items not usually available in the system."

He thought back to the times he had scoured the system for legendary and rare items, only to find them inaccessible. Although he could unlock them, the cost had always been too much.

Now, with his resources expanded, he could afford much more. But back then, he had been cautious, avoiding splurging on anything that didn't offer immediate benefits. Now, however, this new development was a game changer.

What he had unlocked was an item that had previously been unavailable, and now, if he so desired, he could purchase it for a fraction of what he had expected. The level of detail in the location information was another surprising revelation.

'Good thing I'm the only one on this planet with a system like this,' William thought, momentarily putting the sword out of his mind.

He clicked on the second notification, and another prompt materialized before him.

[ A New Skill Has Been Unlocked in the Shop ]

[ A Bundle Skill Has Been Unlocked In The Shop ]

[ The Weapon Prodigal - Skill - Sword Arts - Legendary - Cost: 500 Gold Coins ]

William's lips curled into a dangerous grin as he read the skill's name. "Now this... this is exactly what I need."
