Godlike Player in a Game-Like World

\'There\'s no need to recall those pointless memories.\' He is aware of how the memories of this body were influencing his feelings.

They arrived at a small buffet after a while of chit-chatting. Raydon felt as if he hadn\'t eaten in a long time.

After getting the sandwich they wanted, Belicia said with a chuckle. \'\'Well, gentleman, I think you\'ll cover it. \'\'

\'\'Sure. \'\' Raydon took a gold coin from his dimensional storage and handed it to the seller.

When Belicia spotted the gold, she nearly dropped the sandwich she was holding. The salesman, on the other hand, was trembling and staring at the gold with sweat running down his forehead.

\'\'S-s-s-sir It doesn\'t matter, these are on me. Y-you really don\'t need to p-pay. \'\' The man looked as if he had seen a ghost. Raydon did not understand what was happening and looked at Belicia.

\'\'Are you stupid? Why are you casually pulling out a gold coin and trying to buy a sandwich with it? \'\' Belicia hit Raydon on the head and quickly paid for the sandwiches, pulling her small wallet out of her pocket.

Raydon held his head, despite the fact that he was not in pain, and thought. \'There must be another reason why she\'s being so casual with me. \'

He smiled and said. \'\'I just wanted to buy you something. \'\'

She sighed and acknowledged that it was her fault after seeing Raydon\'s innocent smile. Raydon was someone who, until yesterday, couldn\'t even eat properly by himself.

With their sandwiches in hand, they moved to a deserted park nearby where she started to explain while wearing a serious expression. \'\'Look, gold is a currency used only among item holders. \'\'

She took out her wallet again and showed some paper money. \'\' This is federation money. You can exchange gold for federation money, but not vice versa. In fact, there is no law that prevents people who are not item holders from owning gold, but it is still an unwritten rule in this society.\'\'

She took a deep breath and continued. \'\'The man would have died soon if the seller had just taken the gold in exchange for sandwiches and someone had seen him. \'\'

She looked Raydon in the eye and spoke firmly. \'\'Raydon, can you imagine what a Gold coin can do in this day and age when people kill each other for money? \'\'

Raydon couldn\'t understand why Belicia was taking it so seriously or why she was getting so angry. He might not have cared much about people or life in general, but he still nodded to show that he understood.

\'\'Good if you understand. \'\' She said it with satisfaction.

\'\'Spending time with you was enjoyable, but I now have to return. I\'ll drop you home too. \'\' Belicia said with a wink.

\'\'And don\'t worry, I can pick you up tomorrow morning and take you to that place. During this time, just stay at home and don\'t do anything that will get you in trouble. \'\'Even though she was surrounded by garbage, she found a trash can and threw the sandwich\'s wrapping paper into it.

Raydon followed suit, and they returned the same way they had come. Raydon ascended the stairs as Belicia waved at him before turning away.

\'It\'s incredible that he managed to be an item holder in that condition. Even as a maid in a big family, it took years of intense training for me to awaken. I\'m glad for him, and I suppose I still have hope for my brother.\' Belicia turned and looked in the direction of Raydon\'s apartment while wearing a kind smile. She then continued walking and vanished into one of the shadowy alleys.

—

Raydon waited inside the house for a while before leaving once more. On his first day in this brand-new world, it was unthinkable for him to stay at home and wait. He had to venture outside and do his own exploring.

He had no intention of getting into trouble, so it went without saying that he would heed Belicia\'s advice. Even if he got into trouble, what would happen? He was an item holder. In this lawless environment, he was the law himself.

He started crossing the street to the opposite side this time. No one could look at him before because of Belicia\'s presence, but now he was the center of attention. Everywhere he went, people gave him a wary look as if to warn him that he was invading their territory and needed to respect that.

\'I think this trip will be fun. \' Raydon grinned as he continued to move along while keeping his hands in his pockets.

After a short distance of walking, Raydon heard a voice behind him as he entered one of the side streets.

\'\' Hey brother, I guess you\'re lost, huh? I\'ll be your guide for a small fee if you want. \'\' This individual, whose presence Raydon had already sensed, did not surprise him. He turned to face the person who was speaking to him.

He was a skinny-looking man with red hair. He seemed to be the same age as Raydon. He was also accompanied by two men who appeared to be delinquent.

\'\'I don\'t need a guide, I\'m just wandering around. \'\' Raydon said this before turning around and walking away.

\'\'It\'s a dangerous place out here, bro. I believe you definitely require guides like us. \'\' The man approached Raydon and grabbed his shoulder.

Before the man realized what had happened, his entire world had turned 180 degrees, and he was on the ground.

\'\'You asshole, what do you think you\'re doing to our brother? \'\' When the other two boys noticed their brothers on the ground, they sprinted over to Raydon and started attacking him.

Raydon caught the incoming fist and bent his wrist down. The owner of the fist knelt involuntarily for fear of breaking his ankle. At the same time, Raydon kicked and threw back the person who was attempting to hit him with a baseball bat.

In a matter of seconds, all of the attackers were defeated.
