(From MC's Perspective)
For a moment, the atmosphere becomes completely quiet. The female accountant was dumbfounded by the bounty collection.
From the bandit leader's head alone, the young man had made over 50 million credit points. And when she calculated the whole reward, it resulted in a staggering amount of just over a billion credit points.
Her fingers begin to tremble for a moment. She needs to get approval from the Manager Lawrence for more than 25 million in transactions. Right now, she can't process the reward. She raised her head to meet the young man's eyes.
The female accountant said, in a complex tone, "The reward amount is over a billion. To transfer this amount, I need the approval of our manager. "
"Gasp!" The female staff member beside me covered her mouth in exclamation.
Hearing that, I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. I thought it would be a smooth process.
I asked in an impatient tone, "Why do you need permission to transfer this amount? I'm not okay with revealing my background.
Hearing the first sentence, the female accountant frowns, but as he hears the second, she understands something.
"Maybe this young man is second generation rich. So his family must have given him high-end treasures. " "Coupling with his strength, it's no wonder that he can be able to do such mass killing," she thought to herself.
Yes, instead of bandit hunting, she refers to it as a mass killing. No one would believe it if they revealed it in public.
"I understand your worry. But it's our formality to do so before transferring such a large amount of money. Don't worry, I'll tell the manager about your worry. So he won't get into your details, "she said with a smile.
Her previous concerns have vanished now that she knows the young man is a second generation rich.Fear of the unknown is the most traumatic thing. Her heart returns to peace as her doubts are cleared.
"This..." I said. Seriously, it will take some time to get clearance. I can't wait until then. I have already booked a ticket for my return home.
Seeing the young man spacing out, the female accountant wrinkled her eyebrows and asked, "Is there something troubling you?"
Hearing that, I nodded at her, "I decided to head home today. I have already booked my train tickets. So I hope you will process the transaction as soon as possible.
The staff and accountant looked at each other. The accountant felt the young man's words were quite reasonable. She let out a huge sigh and said, "Well, you did a huge favour to our city by eradicating those bandits. I'll try to complete it within today. "
Hearing her words eased my heart and I immediately thanked her. Then both of us exchanged our contacts. She will contact me once she gets the permission.
After that, I walked out of the front office and strode towards the exit. This time, while walking out, I saw there was no queue to follow. So I exited the City of Lord Manion in no time.
A few minutes later, I returned to the hotel by air car.
...
City Lord's Mansion,
The female accountant made a new report to hand over to the manager, Richardson. The female staff member who assisted Zack, on the other hand, was returned to her seat.
One hour later,
The female accountant completed the report. She is now ready to discuss it with the manager. After saving the report, she walked out of the front office.
Looking at the accountant, the front guard bowed in respect. The female accountant nodded before walking toward the manager's office.
...
Manager's cabin,
Mr. Lawrence was the same person who previously contacted old man Nelson. He made a lot of illegal money by selling the information. He was also the right hand man of the City Lord.
Right now, he is working behind his desk. Recently, he discovered the changes that have taken place in the mansion. It was mostly about the acting lord.
From the city lord, he learnt that major changes were going to take place in the future. And the city lord seems to have changed. Lawrence couldn't pin point exactly what the changes were, but he believed the mood of the city lord had changed somehow.
He hopes that the City Lord will tell him in the future. When he was lost in thought,
BUZZ, "he received notification."
His lips curled into a sly grin. He has been trying to woo her for a long time. But he got no response whatsoever.
"Creak," the door opens.
A mature figure stepped inside the cabin. The female accountant is always careful when dealing with the B@st@rd manager.
She knows that the manager has bad thoughts about her. But fortunately, she is not a help. She also hails from a good background. And the city lord was also aware of it. That's why the manager, Lawrence, was under his limits.
So she has some confidence when it comes to people like managers.
Seeing her coming, Manager Lawrence wore a wide grin on his face. "Ms. Melinda, what greets you here?" He asked.
The female accountant, Ms. Melinda, wrinkled her eyebrows, but she didn't say anything. She went to the opposite seat and sat in it.
"Manager, I need approval for the bandit hunting mission rewards," she said in a plain tone.
Lawrence is displeased by her indifferent attitude. But in the next second, it quickly disappeared. He was used to seeing her like this. So there is no need to get angry over this.
But right after hearing her words, "Oh," he said in surprise. He immediately realised a certain team had crossed over the 25 million mark. It's not uncommon for the strongest team to achieve this feat.
But right now, the insect forest is at its peak. Even the Peak Trainee Bandits were coming out in numbers. So at this time, for a strong bandit hunting team to achieve this record is an extraordinary feat.
On the other hand, Ms. Melinda sent the report to his projection desk.
Seeing that, Lawrence begins to check the details. When he opened the report to read it completely, he was astonished by the information.
Lawrence couldn't digest the information. "Is this true or what?" He mumbled under his breath. It's too hard for him to believe the information.
Then he immediately looked at Melinda for a moment. He asked, "What is this?"
Hearing that, Ms. Melinda reveals a bitter smile on her face, and she knows the manager won't believe the reports. So she immediately answered, "Yes, it's true. And I have checked it personally. "
She recalled the image of a second-generation rich young man in her mind. Unknowingly, she defended Zack in front of the manager.
Lawrence got up from his seat immediately. Seeing that, Melinda also rose from the seat.
Which team is it? Do I want to meet them in person? " Lawrence said with an enthusiastic smile. Earlier, he was thinking about the changes that were going to take place in
But he never thought he would receive such a surprise now. Which bandit hunting team achieved this feat? His mind sprung into action. This news will bring a huge face-lift to the city. He can't wait to inform the city lord after confirming the news.
On the other hand, Melinda had black lines on her forehead. Seeing the enthusiastic expression of the Maanger, she doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. So she waited patiently for him to calm down.
A few seconds later,
Lawrence calmed his heart and looked at his accountant, Melina. "What? led me towards the new team? " He ordered
SIGH
Melinda let out a small sigh before saying, "This feat was achieved by a single person, not by bandit hunting teams."
Hearing that Lawrence paused for a moment, his heart was set on storms. This is another wave of unbelievable news. He looked at the accountant and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He returned back to his seat and began to carefully read the report. Because earlier, after seeing the reward he got from his seat, Now he wants to read it fully. When he finished reading the report, he wrinkled his eyebrows in confusion.
He asked, "Why is there no background information on him?"
Suddenly, he thought there was some conspiracy behind this. It's impossible for a single person to achieve this feat. It's really scary. He also knew no one would believe this information, not even the city lord.
A doubt rose in his heart at this time. He looked at Melinda with a doubtful gaze. But quickly, he shakes his head in denial. He had been following Melinda for a long time. If there was something suspicious, he would have known it before.
So there is no chance for her to be involved in this consistency. Then who is responsible for this? At this time, his heart was afraid to accept the report. 1 billion is not a joke. If the information is verified again, his heart won't be in peace.
There is a high chance for this person to be a bad guy. Lawrence decided to confront him and inquire about the bandit heads.
