Mythical World RPG

Suddenly Rich

"But to be honest, I'm still confused. Why do you want to cooperate with me? How about I take this black Crystal and send people to harm you?" Rubx asked.

"Just try it. Because I'm the type of person who is cruel when dealing with bad people," Satria challenged, if not afraid in the slightest.

"Hahaha. I understand. It looks like I'll just be wasting my life bothering you. Don't worry. I'm not that kind of person. I was just testing you," said Rubx as he kept the black Crystal in his drawer. Rubx immediately issued 500 gold coins to buy Satria's sky blue crystal.

"Tomorrow, you come here again at noon. I'll pay the cost of the black Crystal tomorrow because today I'm just going to offer it to the big shop," continued Rubx. Satria counted back the gold coins from Rubx, then put another 100 gold coins on the table while the rest he put into the cloth in his pocket.

"Alright, here are 100 gold coins for the cost of buying this Crystal. I'll come back tomorrow to collect the rest," said Satria while inserting the sky blue Crystal that he took from the Rubx shop shelf into his account bag slot in the way the Dungeon officer taught him. Judging from his reaction, it seems that Rubx doesn't look surprised. Maybe he already got information about the access menu.

"It seems that some people who have a relationship with the upper class already know how to access bag slots like this. Even though he said tomorrow the Luxurie Kingdom would just announce it to the general public," Satria thought.

"Yes. I will immediately prepare it tomorrow," said Rubx with a smile.

"Then I'll say goodbye. See you later," said Satria as he walked out of the Rubx shop.

"He is a very terrible person. But without him knowing, he is also a good person. Even though what he said earlier was just a trick, he still bought Crystals from me," said Rubx while looking at the 100 gold coins that Satria had left on his desk.

"It would be nice to be able to do business with someone like him," continued Rubx as he put another gold coin on his desk.

Meanwhile, Satria looked at the map again to confirm the adventurer's association building location. But after seeing it, it turned out that the place had to pass through the inn he rented. Inevitably he had to go back again. After all, if that was the case, he could stop by the inn first to check on Nekora's condition.

Before Satria stepped foot, he saw an older man bearing fruit resting not far from him. Satria immediately approached him and bought a bag of various fruits with only one gold coin. After that, he immediately walked again to go home.

"Unfortunately. Even though the price is much lower than the usual fruit shop, which is fresh again, that's the fate of the little people. If you want to sell it to a fruit wholesaler, the price will be squeezed, "said Satria as he walked down the street he had passed earlier. For him to see such sights and circumstances was common in the real world.

"That child," Satria thought when he saw the boy sitting near the pile of garbage, was still there. Satria slowly approached him and squatted near him. The child seemed to lift his head and look at Satria for a moment. His face looks very wrinkled and neglected.

"Don't you have a place to live?" asked Satria. The boy just shook his head slowly.

"Want some fruit?" said Satria while giving one fruit to the child. Although initially hesitant, the child immediately took it and ate it voraciously as if starving. Satria also took one and immediately ate it.

"Do you think the world is fair for someone like you?" asked Satria slowly. The child was silent for a moment and swallowed the fruit.

"No," the boy answered slowly.

"You're right. This world will only feel fair to people with power and wealth in abundance. We are just trash in their eyes. But, your life will never change just by swearing. Even though what you're grumbling about is true," said Satria while giving another fruit to the child, which he accepted and ate.

"If other people can't respect us, we can only do it ourselves. If other people don't fight for us, we have to try ourselves. We should not expect mercy from others even with all our limitations, especially if we are still walking and haven't fallen weak in bed," added Satria as he stood up.

"Do you know what is the most valuable living capital in this world?" asked Satria as he took another fruit and handed it to the little boy.

"Money?" answered the boy as if hesitating while receiving the fruit from Satria.

"No. But honesty. Maybe someone like me doesn't deserve to say it. But honesty is indeed the single most valuable thing that is priceless. The boy just stared at Satria's face silently.

"Thank you," said the boy as he tightly clenched the fruit.

"I gave you the fruit for nothing. I value one bronze coin for one fruit. Since you have received three, you owe me three bronze coins," said Satria with a smile. Suddenly the child was immediately shocked and looked at Satria sharply because he felt that he was being played with.

"Always remember your debt. Look for me. Come to me and pay off your debt someday," said Satria, who immediately stomped his feet and jumped past the residents' houses.

"I hope he now understands a lot more about how cruel this world is. No one is willing to help you without having a specific purpose for him," Satria thought as he clenched his fists tightly and then walked as usual after returning to his feet on the road to his inn again.

Satria walked for a long time until he finally arrived at the inn he rented. The demi-humans who were there immediately looked at him. The conditions were busier than before because it was now night, and everyone staying at this inn would go home to rest.

"Hey master, it looks like you're lost," said a demi-human with a human-like appearance and body but with horns like a buffalo. He immediately stood in front of Satria with sharp eyes.

"Sorry, but I've rented a room at this inn," replied Satria while trying to step, but the demi-human in front of him stopped him again.

"He's also a customer at this inn, so you shouldn't be messing around," said the demi-human with the head of a deer who suddenly came to intervene.

"My friend has told me that a special customer is staying here for three days," said the demi-human while looking at Satria. Now Satria understands that he is an innkeeper who takes turns with the demi-human women that Satria previously met there.

"Thank you very much," replied Satria while walking towards Nekora's room.

"Eh? Did I hear wrong? How can a human want to live together in a group for a demi-human like us," said the demi-human who intercepted Satria earlier.

"But that's the reality. You better not bother him if you don't want to get into trouble. I won't discriminate against anyone here!" said the innkeeper as he returned to his place.

Satria immediately knocked on the door when he arrived at the door of Nekora's room. There were tiny footsteps from inside starting to approach the door. The sound of a lock opening was also heard. Slowly the bedroom door opened, and Nekora peeked through the door gap. Still, after seeing Satria, she immediately opened the door.

"Sorry, Mister. I thought it was someone else," said Nekora, looking down.

"Never mind, I brought this for you," said Satria while handing over a bag of fruits. Satria immediately went inside and stood staring at Nekora, who was still bowed, holding a fruit bag.

"Tomorrow, I will take you to Lunar City, so sleep well tonight," said Satria.

"Why did you invite me? Haven't I done something bad to you?" asked Nekora somewhat hesitantly.

"Yes. That's why I don't want to see you forced to do evil again. It would be best if you weren't used by people like them again here. That is your punishment, and you will start your life again. Even though you're a demi-human, you're still a woman. You have to live as it should. I'm sure you will understand it, "said Satria without a smile.

"There, you will also help me. Of course, the reward will be according to your ability and assistance," continued Satria as he came out of Nekora's room again.

After Satria left, Nekora looked speechless. She didn't know whether Satria had good intentions toward her or what. From his words and attitude, he doesn't look like a good person, but on the other hand, his actions also don't reflect his attitude and comments. Nekora just sighed and locked the door again.

That night Satria was still lying in his room. He had already given up his intention to go to the adventurer association building. After all, the traces of Vanzard and the others would not be found just like that, now that he had many plans for the future. If it fails, he has prepared a backup plan because he is aware that human calculations will certainly not match the expected reality. The goal remains unchanged, namely to avenge him.
