Chapter 66: Promotion and Multiple Military Missions
[Your authority in the Akashic Records grows!]
[Promotion completed! Current Military Rank is: Rank 1 Private.]
[Current benefits: Increased authority, 2% reduction on all purchases made through the Records, and a reduction in the monthly Records maintenance fee from 100K LP to 80K LP.]
[Conditions met to promote your military rank. Do you wish to promote? Yes/No?]
Taking in the details, Mikael nodded in satisfaction at the benefits of his new rank. However, he hesitated before deciding whether to pursue another promotion. He reasoned that an increased discount might make it worthwhile. To make an informed choice, he asked, "What are the conditions for the next military promotion?"
[Condition: 50 Military Points.]
'So, 5K LP... Yeah, that doesn't seem worth it right now. Even if the discount doubles to 4%, it wouldn't justify spending 5K LP at this stage. That's a lot of money, especially since I still need approximately 65K LP before I have to return to the Dirarnia World.'
He checked the time elapsed since leaving the Dirarnia World. 'Five days, huh. I told Amelia I'd be gone for two weeks at most, so I have only nine days left to gather the remaining LP! I should probably continue doing military missions since they seem to be the most efficient way to farm LP at the moment. This last mission, which lasted five days, earned me 15K LP. If I take shorter missions, it's possible that my gains will be even faster.'
Acknowledging his time constraints, Mikael prepared to leave the room when another thought struck him. 'I should probably convert my military points into LP now to be efficient.'
But as he was about to summon the Records for the transfer, he reconsidered. 'Maybe I should hold off for now. If I wait until I have enough MP to convert everything at once, there might be a bonus for saving the Records' energy. I'm not sure, but it doesn't cost me anything to try.'
Deciding to delay the transfer, Mikael exited the military promotion room and reappeared in the bustling Hub. A wave of nostalgia washed over him as he took in the lively surroundings. 'It feels like it's been forever since I was here,' he thought. Shaking off the sentiment, he ignored the noise and ascended a set of stairs that seemed to lead nowhere, only to be teleported moments later to his apartment.
