Chapter 11: Rising Stats
Dan stood in a daze, staring at the six money cards in his hands.
Since his arrival in this empire, he had realized how difficult it was for people of low status to acquire wealth. In this empire, where a billion Jens was an incredibly large amount of money and a considerable sum for an S-Rank Clan like R Lockward, 300 million Jens was a sum that many would covet.
’Just the businesses I’m handling for the Family cost 2 billion... And I have that amount in my hands.’
Dan couldn’t believe it. He looked up at Louis and then looked down at the money cards again.
That small process repeated itself several times.
"Yo—Young Master... What does this mean?"
"I’ll just help you take control of the family. You have a mission to fulfill, don’t you? Maybe after you do it right and improve it in every way, you’ll have the chance to go back to God’s Land."
"But..."
"It’s okay, Uncle Dan." Louis interrupted him. "I’ll just need information about this city and the empire, since they kicked me out of the Clan and sent me here without explaining anything. You can keep the money I gave you. But you need to tell me everything you know about this place, including the value of the Jens."
Although Dan had difficulty understanding what was happening, after a moment’s processing, he nodded.
"So, you’re not going to leave?" he asked, reaching for the ticket, but Louis refused it.
