Chapter 1 - Prologue

"If it's about making money, I am the best to ever to do it"

Park Ji Suk raises a glass from behind the podium at his commencement into the S-rank, the one and only salesman to ever reach this height. An achievement that will ring for centuries in this world; in heaven and hell, the only one to be called "The Greatest Salesman".

The audience clapped and it echoed through the halls, a diverse crowd was in front of him: Elders that carried swords on their hip, people with marble wings on their back, some with horns on their head, some with their pointy ears and golden hair. It's been said that even if it's in the middle of war, in the dwarven mines, in the elven wilds or the demon kingdom, Park Ji Suk will be the only one to come out profitable.

This is the story of that salesman, "The Greatest Salesman".

***

The sun was out on one of the hottest days of the year, the pavement was scorching, enough to cook an egg.

Park Jisuk clutches a bundle of pamphlets, waving one around in his other hand, a circle of discarded paper has formed around him on the sidewalk.

"We are having a grand sale for the beginning of the new decade" Jisuk hollered out to people walking by, yet no one was paying him any mind.

I guess today I will really be fired, Jisuk thought to himself.

The general store, where Jisuk worked, was struggling with acquiring customers. However, It wasn't always like this, there was a time when the store was bustling with people in every corner of the store who were basically fighting over the brand new products; It all changed when the rumors started to spread from a newtube video, he was a sly creator who was stealing behind his camera but when we tried to stop him, he said the employees were harassing him; just like that, it was over, no one ever bothered to hear us out. Now, it was essentially a ghost town, the manager couldn't afford to pay his salary anymore so if he couldn't get customers through the door, it would be his last day.

Sigh, Jisuk exhaled crouching on the pavement, the sun was straight above him at noon.

The manager of the general store walks out behind Jisuk, and looks down at him.

Jisuk rolls his neck back to meet her eye, she was eclipsing the sun with her head, Jisuk jumped to his feet fumbling with his pamphlets.

"Get back to work unless you want this day to be your last" She warned him before turning and walking back to the AC inside of the store.

*thud*

A crowd starts to form as the manager turns back to see Jisuk laying on the ground, She pushes past the crowd and shakes Jisuk, "Hey! Wake Up! I can't afford another news headline, Come on! Wake Up", she mumbles under her breath.

A distant whirring of the ambulance jingle can be heard before everything goes dark.
