Chapter 131 Going to the bank. (1/2)

Roland in hisLucille and a soht half-plate armor that must have been a spare Robert just like Roland had lost his previous areon expedition

“Good day Mr Wayland!”

“Ah, gooda different suit of ar both his arh this, it was quite easy to tell hihts that did not have enoughhow fate works, I was just looking for Sir Wayland and he is here! Don’t you think, Sir Robert?”

“Yes, M’lady”

Robert just nodded, Roland expected him to tip a fedora that would fit that reply He was still acting very gentle wo?”

Roland was still a bit apprehensive about being around his older brother It was luck that kept his face hidden away for so long but noas slowly running out of excuses to wear body-covering armor

“Yes you can! You didn’t think that ould forget about what you did for us down there!”

“That’s right”

Robert nodded while keeping his arainst his wide chest Today the tere in lighter clothes

Lucille earing a full-blown dress that went all the way up to her ankles She was even holding a parasol over her shoulder to keep the sun rays fro her pale face Robert on the other hand had a blue tunic under that half-plate armor that made him look like sosword strapped to his hip

The two actually looked good together, Robert was quite the handsome man with somewhat different facial features than Roland but some parts were quite si in their veins and if he took off the helmet it would become even more apparent

“It’s fine, you already thanked eon…”

Roland did remember that he was promised a reward but he didn’t care about it that h for hireedy

His plan was to wait a year or two before going down there to face that boss Maybe longer depending on how ole that fight, so or someone that could tank the hits from that h firepower to pierce that monster’s skin The only problem would be to keep it in place to deliver a critical blow For that a tough golem e creature like that was needed

“I must insist, my father always told me to keep my promises! It would be shameful to the De Vere naht, we at the Arden Estate have the sa like that?’

Roland asked hi nored by his father and the other servants No one really treated him like a proper noble and he himself was not interested in it

He spenthis escape after attending the young h when he discovered his lack of elemental proficiencies Even to this day, he did not even have a fraction of a percentage in any of theave me a nice bonus for my troubles, and didn’t Lady Lucille lose her purse while in the dungeon?”

Roland was sure that all of the girl’s belongings went ive him the money she shouldn’t be able to This is unless she asked for soe from one of the other nobles

“That is true, but Albrook does have a bank!”

“A bank?”

Roland thought for a second, he recalled hearing soo In this kingdom, there was one main bank called the ‘National Bank of Caldris’ NBC for short

He never really used it as the price of adold was in circulation Roland constantly bought newrunic gear was invested into his workshop almost instantly There was no reason for him to make a bank account

That wasn’t the main reason why he never used one, it always came down to his true identity These banks had costly identification devices, the iteuilds lower quality analyzing item would not work in the bank

While the adventurer’s guild didn’t care that much about the true identities and criminal history of their adventurers, the bank did Roland would need to subject hi devices and they would probably see his true name on it

If this information would find its way to his enemies was up to debate Supposedly the banks were very hush-hush This didn’t et this information He was probably safe from the cult with that as they did not know his real name or association with the Arden estate

“Yes, luckily I still haveout a dark-colored card with soe inscriptions on it Roland’s eyes shone for a fraction of a second as he noticed that there wereelse that was a first

‘It’s a runic ite the card right in front of his face as she stood there proudly This allowed hi quite well Even then, when he strained his senses his debugging skill did not show him the correct paths

It was clear that this was a runic iteer ones sticking out he would have a hard ti that it was an actual runic ites, either this was not a true runic item and thus his skill didn’t work The other possibility that he was more inclined to believe was that this item was above his skill’s level

“That’ card, what is it …”

“Ah, this? Did Sir Wayland never see an obsidian bank card?”

Lucille couldn’t tell but Roland was squinting with his eyes while trying to scan this ite skill If he focused a lot of e of the schematic It was not complete and faded alhtful

“Lady Lucile, that's a bit…”

Robert turned to the blue-haired girl with an aard expression

“Huh? oh I didn’t mean it like that Sir Wayland!”

Roland snapped back after burning through 30 of histo analyze this black card From the conversation, it seeet one of these cards or even worse to visit a bank

“I’m sure the bank would accept Sir Wayland as a client!”

Besides the strenuous identification requireround check They soicians that could see into a person’s past to see if they weren’t souise

This of course only left people like nobles andsyste a proper bank card could awealthy

It was far easier to get a card like that if soround checks were also a lot more lenient

“Ah… no that’s fine, I have no use for a card like that”

Roland replied while Lucille started flailing her arirl had not yet been pushed through the wringer of the noble life She seemed overly nice even to someone like him that would be considered a somewhat rare commoner but still only a commoner

“What Lady Lucille would like to propose is that you come with us to the bank”
