Millennium Tension

Chapter 217: Rent a Car

"Oh, it's a coincidence, Xander. My girl is interested in this car. Please take care of it for us immediately." Aizen nodded as the showroom owner approached him.

The corners of Xander's lips twitched when he heard the request from this young master. This young master skipped some basics like introducing names. Besides, there was no explanation in the sentence regarding this young master wanting to buy or just rent a car!

"Please, your choice is not in doubt. This car is one of the best in my showroom and rental. This car that earned its nickname as a tanker--" Xander cleared his throat and explained just as he did to any other customer.

Unfortunately, Aizen interrupted the fat man with the thick mustache without politeness to listen to the introductory explanation. He was like an impatient young master, the role he was playing. "Please stop with an explanation that I don't want to hear. My girl wants this car, so I'm going to choose this car. Now, tell me, how much is it?"

"Uhh, alright. This is last year's S-V6 Templar series. The price of this car is... Olive." Xander called out his female assistant to help him.

"Affirmative, Xander-sama. Dear customer, the S-V6 Templar unit has a price of 1.2 million Yura. These are details regarding the installment payment in several levels." Olive respectfully displayed a holographic screen of the device she was carrying. There was listed some information about the car in question.

"Hmm, I think you are a little misunderstanding our purpose here. I want to rent this car. Hmm, let's say one month. How much do I need to pay?" Aizen made a stop hand gesture.

"Dear customer, the S-V6 Templar car unit costs 600 Yura per day. The fee you will need to pay at your request will be 18 thousand Yura. To make the process faster, please show your ID and financial card." Olive turned off the holographic screen projection and answered respectfully.

"Very well, money is the last problem I have. Here are the two cards that are needed..." Aizen took out the requested card indifferently. However, when he turned to the car, Ana had opened the car door and got into the steering seat.

Then, three girls approached the car and got on as if the car was ready to be driven away on the road.

"Ho ho-ho, it looks like your girls can't wait to use the tanker to explore the city." Xander stroked his mustache when he saw that. He knew very well this young master was indeed rich but not wasteful.

"Well, that's my happy life." Aizen shrugged his shoulders with a proud expression.

"Dear customer, Aizen-sama, the transaction has been arranged. Please confirm the required payment." Olive flashed the hologram screen to Aizen. There was written the things that had to be paid for the transaction. It was just waiting for the payment to be completed and confirmed.

Aizen did not answer and simply brought the two cards he held towards the holographic screen to be scanned. After that, he took out a pen-like device and turned on the holographic screen.

It was a smartphone that was useful for many things, and one of them was to confirm payment for transactions. The tools that Ana bought when Lian finished making their identity cards.

Aizen opened an incoming message, then directed the complex code to be scanned by Olive's hologram screen.

Xander glanced slightly at the name of this customer. On his assistant's hologram screen, the word 'Aizen' was printed on the name column. After finally knowing who this customer was, Xander opened his mouth to speak. "The transaction was successful, Aizen-sama. Does the person who will be driving already have a license?"

"Don't worry, my girls are tier 10 artificial human with a license. Should I show it?" Aizen offered after putting the cards and the smart-pen back into his inner pocket.

"Oh, that's not necessary. Let me escort you to the car, Aizen-sama." Xander suddenly became so polite and so respectful.

Some time ago, he saw a barcode accidentally on the girl who got into the car. Because of that, he would have no doubt that these four girls were artificial humans. No wonder they were beautiful, and like perfect humans, they were tier 10 girls!

Much different from his tier 2 assistant robot... He bought Olive because he needed a cheap and agile assistant and the many tier 1 robots he assigned to various fields.

The artificial human with the highest tier was perfectly designed in terms of level, ability, and reliability. High intelligence and memory that was adjusted according to the buyer's interest... And most importantly, the appearance of particular artificial humans could be arranged during exclusive creation!

If it was already licensed, obviously, the artificial humans had multiple talents. Never mind cars, they could even pilot any Mechs and Reapers without any problems. Something called a perfect human to serve their master.

On the other side of all those high-level abilities, their numbers were very few, and the price was very high. It was tier 10, not just any numbers and letters, but the real deal at exorbitant prices.

All artificial humans were priced significantly high because of what was being offered. Besides, only tier 5 and above could be called artificial humans. Everything below 5 was just the robot that resembled the human from the outside.

Xander would be foolish enough not to notice this young master's identity. This young master must be one of the prominent figure descendants of a city. If what was said was right, it wouldn't be just one and two tier 10 artificial humans, but four!

With the sudden change in tone of this fat man with the thick mustache, Aizen shrugged his shoulders without answering. He only allowed the showroom owner to open the door for him.

"Very well, Aizen-sama. Here are the keys to the car and this is the letter of the car. Please return this car in full shape before 30 days from now. Laws and regulations apply. We are rule-abiding citizens." Xander gave two items that needed to be provided. He also didn't forget to remind the subject immediately.

"Haha... That's fine, but you don't need to worry, Xander. After we're done exploring this city, this car will come back here intact. I'll compensate for anything damaged if it's found. Oh, maybe this car will be home before a month. "Aizen laughed and tapped Xander on the shoulder.

"Oh, I'm glad to hear that. Then I won't take up any more of your time. Enjoy your trip in Erast City." Xander breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. He stepped back after his business with Aizen was complete.

He had no fear of the car being stolen as the city security system would quickly locate the missing vehicle. However, something like a car breakdown still needed to be questioned regarding the liability.

The customer must also take responsibility for that. It was no longer a matter of politeness or offense but a regulation that had to be confirmed in words.

"Okay, let's go. Do you want to drive this tanker, Ana?" Aizen leaned back in the middle seat in the front row.

He was currently sitting in the middle between Ana and Axel in a seat that could accommodate three to four adults. If that was taken into account, the car could easily fit twelve adults in three rows of seats.

"En, let me drive this floating humvee. I'm good at driving." Ana nodded enthusiastically while playing the steering wheel. She was waiting for the key to be given to her.

"Alright, this is the key. Please drive at ease and don't go speeding. We can get ticketed, and it's troublesome, hmm-hmm..." Aizen muffled his laughter and handed the car keys to Ana.

"Affirmative, Brother Aizen-sama, hehe..." Ana smiled and answered using honorifics like the assistant robot earlier.

In general conversation, she and the girls would call Aizen with the extra '-sama' after his name. It was a matter of course used as the default setting for artificial humans purchased from manufacturing laboratories to their masters.

*honk*

Ana honked the horn once to signal their departure to the two people who were still staring at them. After that, she drove the car out of the showroom. They sped away without waiting for anything else.

After seeing the tanker leave his showroom and their shadow out of sight, Xan der turned around and walked away. Olive followed him from behind as usual.

"Olive, find and show me information about the man named Aizen from the special intelligence network we have access to." Xander suddenly felt curious after the two of them entered his room. He asked his female assistant to take care of it.

"Affirmative, Xander-sama." Olive complied and immediately did what was ordered. She used her smart-pen and quickly requested access to the intelligence network.

After a few seconds had passed, a result was found from the resident identity intelligence network. Olive showed the holographic screen to her master immediately.

"Hmm, Aizen's name, 18 years old, male gender--" Xander read the details that could be displayed with the level of access he had.

However, after reading the details of a few lines, he was surprised at the information. "What!? He's the son of a mysterious rich merchant from Beuxfast City. Is his life just to spend his father's too much money? Life is so good for this young master..."
