Chapter 57
....Shiiiiineeeeyyy...
Oh crap, almost lost myself there. And Gust... is even worse. No wonder, considering his lineage.
The source of my brainless state lies before me: a stupid-big moneybag, filled to the brim with cash.
"To summarize, 100,000 Sol for the safe return of the protégé of the Library Tower, now named Gust, plus the bonus of a copy of the Library Tower’s newest version of the Skill Encyclopedia and Class Register, one volume of each, for taking so good care of said protégé, granting him a name, and even helping him in evolving." - Carion
The moneybag contained mostly golden coins named Half-Golds. According to the Union Master, the currency here’s called Sol and divided between bronze, silver, and gold, plus some more advanced metal-variants higher up that normal people will never have a chance to lay their eyes on.
There goes a hundred Bronze Sols for a single Silver Sol, then the same amount of Silver for one Gold.
There’s also Big-Sols, that’s 10 times the original value of the original coin the Big is based on, plus Half-Sols that’s half the value, obviously. Speaking of obvious, there’s no Half-Bronzes.
"You’re just struck gold on the first day of becoming an adventurer. This must be a new world record." - Carion
Oh, he’s right. That’s bad! Won’t people come after me then? Monsters are one thing, but humans protected by law and civil rights are something I’m unfamiliar with!
Therefore, semi-permanent Storage-sealing for this guy! But I’m gonna read the books later. Unlike a certain inept note, these books tell me in detail about how skills and classes work, how to acquire them, and the general public’s opinion about them.
With the hypnotizing gold out of the way, Gust snapped out from his gold fever and started the waterwork again.
