Chapter 114: First Interaction With The People Of The Scorched Lands
"Fuck..." Seryn muttered, his eyes wide. "Just what did you get me into?"
"I'd say my bad, but it's not really my bad," Rael replied with a shrug, extending his hand. "You're 3 million in debt, by the way. We visited the Mirefall Encampment, Ruins of Saltmere, and Halcyra. So yeah, 3 million."
"Seriously...?" Seryn grumbled. "I've been asleep for the last couple of days. How did I... oh right, the one in possession of me likely visited those places."
Rael nodded. "Even if it was just spiritually, you still visited those places, so pay up."
"You're unbelievable," Seryn said with a sigh as he accepted Rael's hand.
<Payment Received: 3,000,000 Trell. Accept? Yes/No>
<Confirmed.>
<Balance Updated: +3,000,000 Trell | New Balance: 18,152,275 Trell>
"Nice." Rael snickered. "Now that that's over with, though, you need to make a decision. Do you want to get out of here or not? I'm not waiting for long, so I'll only give you 10 seconds to decide."
Before he could even begin the countdown, Seryn nodded.
"I believe that as long as I follow you, I'll be able to get out. So I'll come with you."
Rael's brows twitched. "Look, as much as I'd like to lie to you and tell you what you want to hear... there's no way out of the Depths, and I'm the only one who has a chance of getting out."
