Chapter 22: Start Of School D-Day
A month passed by in a flash.
I was able to save on lodging expenses because I had stayed at Miss Heerlein’s place during that time. And along with the tip I made from the unexpected friendship with Lady Saliere during my part-time work, my financial situation improved rather quickly.
Today was the last day of my full-time hour job. I told the owner that I’d think about extending my contract once I started at the Academy, since my priority in the weeks after the ceremony was to adjust to school life.
Anyhow, I had bountiful funds in my savings. For someone recently set free, that is.
With my regular pay, overtime, and a bonus for working hard, I was able to pay for tuition, dorm fees, and still have some remaining.
Still, I was sad about the money going out.
“Uwuuh.”
Once I paid for tuition, my mood plunged along with the money in my account. Seeing the money I had worked hard to earn disappear from my savings into someone else’s pocket in real time was bad for my mental health....
A little more and they were going to start taxing me. It was already terrible.
I thought about a few things while I had been working for the past month.
It wouldn’t be that bad to live like this until I graduate as long as there were no other variables. I could make money during breaks and research new magic throughout the semester period.
