Damon sighed. Clearly, talking was not going to work with these two. He silently took out a spatial pouch, transferred some gold coins into it and tossed it onto the table. "There I have paid for the first hundred books. Now can I continue browsing?"
"Huh? What hundred gold coins? Puha! You can't even buy a single page with that measly amount. Do you even know how much a single skill book costs? Who let you inside the clan market? Are you a stray?"
The guy scoffed and continued his rambling. His eyes then quickly darted to Marianne to check if she was still pleased with his response. But unexpectedly, she stood frozen like a statue. Her mouth was open and her eyes were widened and she stared at Damon without blinking.
"Did… did you just say you paid for a hundred books?" She stammered. She hurriedly grabbed the spatial pouch and confirmed the contents within. Her body started trembling and she looked up, swallowing nervously.
