Chapter 24 (2/2)

But well, fine Let's just let that go

In all worlds, there are geniuses, and there are idiots That's all there is to that

But there is so that I really must ask

”Do Alpha and the others know about this company?”

”Yes, of course”

Which means, this is that

The pattern where I'm the only one to be left out

I get it, I really do I'irl circle

”A-, and are you profiting quite a bit?”

”Currently we are setting up branches in thecountries The expansion is going smoothly But of course, the h the company”

nobody needs that forced tie-in to the shadoorld

In other words

The girls leftit in

If they had given round picking up gold coins, nor would I have had to pretend to be a dog and chase after gold coins

But it's fine, they did prepare such a large-scaled set for me Let's be satisfied with this

But

Just a little bit?

”Uold coins?”

I'll eventually return them Maybe

”Yes my lord, at once”

After giving uided me in

In a short while, a cart laden with gold coins is pushed in

A whole mountain of it

There isaway on that cart

This is easily more than a hundred billion Zeny

”This…… is a bit……”

Even I' it back

”!? Is it too little? I'll i more……”

”No, it's fine”

I interrupt Gaold coins

With an exaggerated motion, I stab my left arm into the pile of coins

The coins clink noisily

The point here is to gather all their attention on my left hand

I concentrate with every last one of my nerves

And then

”Hmph”

I grab about 15 coins withit into my left pocket

That is 15 million Zeny

The moment they had all focused on ht hand's hand speed to also grab so

Alpha and Delta would be one thing There's no way Gaht that

”A-, are you fine with only that little? You can actually take it all……”

So says Ga at her

She thinks that I've only borrowed 15 million Zeny

But actually, I've gotten twice that amount: 3 million Zeny!

”This is fine It's sufficient”

So I say while pushi+ng down the laughter that's threatening to bubble up

”Yes my lord Then we shall put these back away”

Gamma claps, and several ladies come over to take away the cart

Then Gamma kneels before me

”We are fully aware of the reason for our lord's visit today Undoubtedly it is in regards to that issue”

”Mmm”

I nod sagely What does she mean by 'that issue'?

”We are truly sorry Currently we are continuing our investigation, but still have yet to identify the offending party Please give us a bit more time That fool ears black and call hi the citizens of the royal capital – I, Ga him doithout fail”

”Fumu……”

This is literally the first ti about this
