Chapter 37



Chapter 37 – Financial Plan 2

“I’ll definitely win this!”

I headed to the backstreets where the Dragon Lottery was sold.

The slum area along the way was littered with worthless garbage and had a stale smell.

“Gerg, so where did you drop it off?”

“I don’t know. I wouldn’t have asked you if I did. I can’t find it. Fuck.”

Two suspicious-looking guys walking towards me were looking for something. To avoid trouble, I changed my course.

In the darkness at the end of a crooked road, I saw some glowing eyes.

Was it a child? Or was it a beast?

“Aix nii-san!”

A small shadow approached me with a voice that I had heard somewhere before, and I finally realized that it was the cat-eared little girl, Nitra.

I was a little surprised.

“So, is your friend doing well?”

“Yeah, thanks. Lai-nee also said something like, ‘Do I have to serve goshujin-sama for his kindness?’”

That witch.

She seemed to have told the child something strange as revenge for bargaining too much for the medicine. I have to clear up the misunderstanding and say that it’s just witch’s nonsense.

“Well, don’t worry about it. I was helped by someone before too. Please tell her that.”

“Okay, I got it.”

Nitra’s dazed expression was healing.

Maybe I should buy her some reward skewers.

“You’re a good girl.”

Oops, that was close. This was an important seed money.

I hesitated with my wallet, and Nitra asked me with a worried look.

“Did you run out of money? Lai-nee’s medicine was expensive.”

“No, I’m fine. I just dropped it in the ditch earlier.”

I lied.

The medicine was indeed expensive.

Lai-nee’s illness wasn’t a cold, but rather the “Curse of Farla,” so she needed the “Elf’s Spiritual Medicine.”

That’s why I ran out of living expenses all of a sudden.

“Are you lying?”

Uh-oh, is it that easy to see through me?

But I didn’t want to make the child worry.

So I piled up more lies.

“Nitra, I’m rich. Here, take all of this. You can’t do something like this without extra money, right?”

“Uh, okay.”

Take it all.

Ha, this is the fate of a liar.

“Come on, now that you understand. Oh, and buy something for Lai-nee with it.”

“Okay, thanks.”

She approached me and rubbed against me.

My stomach was rumbling.

Oh, I’m so healed.

If she had been an adult woman, I would have fallen for her immediately. I could understand the feelings of those who talked about how great beastmen were.

“Goodbye, see you later.”

And I was left with zero money.

The heart is warm.

I stroll back to the inn.

“Has my life of poverty started?”

It’s warm. Physically, at least, thanks to the stone in my pocket. It’s better than being cold, though.

“Hmm? This… could be sellable.”

Come to think of it, lately…

I’ve been approached by strange people.

They ask me if I would like to have a meal as a reward for helping a certain noble.

Perhaps the wealthy are starving for entertainment, and they might even buy something weird like this.

“If I keep getting invited like this, maybe I should go and see.”

Oh, it’s that person.

“What a coincidence, Aix-sama. Have you considered my proposal for dinner?”

“Yes. I can do it tonight.”

The messenger’s face is filled with surprise.

“What? To-to-night? That’s sudden.”

“Well… I have plans as well.”

I have no money, so I have to choose between becoming Luca’s string or taking over Rina’s shop tomorrow.

“Okay. I understand. I’ll give you an answer by this evening.”

I watch the messenger hurry away.

Sorry for the sudden request. Being poor is tough.
