~~~(POV: Cera Adamo)~~~
~~~(Location: The City of Marrinjobic, The Continent of Alforza)~~~
~~~(Time: 12:10 PM)~~~
Since we know where we\'re at now, the last thing to do is decide what to do next after getting fresh funds from my bank account. Our system maps are updated, and there are plenty of places to check out, all within The Nu\'bor Kingdom.
"The nearest bank is about 12 blocks to our east. When we\'re done with that, what are we doing next?"
Sally gives me helpful information cause I don\'t remember where the bank was. We passed it, but I didn\'t pay it mind since I didn\'t account for the price of updating our system map.
There are more people walking the streets of Marrinjobic since this morning when we started getting everything done. And the crowds are concerning me from their size. Sally must hold onto my elbow to ensure she doesn\'t lose me.
More people means higher chances for problems to arise, and we aren\'t here to cause problems. We\'re here to get what we need and get a move on.
"After we\'re done with the bank, we can do whatever we want, Sally. Explore the lands of Nu\'bor, or maybe all of Alforza. Take on Dungeons and Quests. Enjoy the freedom we have now."
Knowing what to do next is one of the hardest things people decide. It\'s not something you can predict as a good choice, which causes people to stagnate. For the first time in my new life, we\'re in a land I know nothing about.
Everything we do from this point on has consequences. I don\'t know. I\'m basically blind now with my future knowledge. In a sense, that\'s a great thing. I\'ve caused many great and terrible changes due to my knowledge of the future.
"Why don\'t we check out that giant pyramid in the city\'s center before we leave? I\'ve never seen anything like it, and I\'d like to see it up close."
My hand is interlocked with Sally\'s, and I bring her closer to me with a pull.
"Then that\'s what we\'ll do first. I\'ll have fresh funds, so there shouldn\'t be any problems with prices for a while. I want to learn more about the pyramid if I\'m being honest. Back on Earth, the pyramids had long crumbled from war."
About 65 years before I was born. The only memory of the pyramids that were left resided in movies of old and pictures long since passed.
I have always been fascinated by the pyramids, and I\'m not passing up the chance when one is so close. I didn\'t say anything when Sally asked me cause I wanted her to tell me what she wants to do. I can\'t read her mind after all.
After walking for a while, we eventually reach the bank, and there aren\'t many people. However, once we enter, it\'s magically bigger on the inside than the outside. Dozens of counters are helping customers, and I sigh as most of the lines are long.
"We might be here for a good 25 or 30 minutes..."
She\'s not wrong, and I\'m unhappy about waiting in line. It\'s one of the worst experiences a person can have, and it\'s not something I tolerate unless I have to. And this is one of those situations where I have to accept it.
It takes that long, but we make it to the front of the line, and the man looks at me with a smile.
"How may The Bank of Marrinjobic help you today?"
When I give him my name, he\'ll probably recognize me. But it\'s fine. We won\'t be in the bank for long. And it won\'t take that long to reach the pyramid.
"Slayer Zern, I have an account connected to a shop."
His eyes slightly widen as I look up from the counter and give him a good look at my face from under my hood.
"I\'ll need you to... Uhh... Confirm your identity..."
He takes out a magic device and places it on the counter. It\'s basically a hand scanner. I set my hand on it, and he looks at the magic panel on his end. Confirming my identity and nothing else. He can\'t see my stats or anything like that.
"Would you mind waiting just a minute while I get my manager..."
His voice is shaking and full of fear. I nod my head a single time, and he practically sprints down the pathway to a door that leads into the back. After a minute, a bigger man comes out and makes his way over. He\'s wiping sweat from his brow as we lock eyes.
"When will I see my account?"
I\'m starting to get impatient, and the man can see it. He swallows hard as his temple becomes red from how scared and nervous he is.
"There is a private room in the back if you wish to talk there, Angel Zern... You probably don\'t wish to discuss your finances in a public place like this..."
He\'s not exactly wrong.
People have been staring at me from behind and the lines to the sides. Having heard my name and confirmation of my identity. Sally is staying close to my side, and I can tell she\'s enjoying that this bugs me. She knows I hate attention.
"Fine, take me to this private room, and we finish my business there."
Honestly, I don\'t want people to know how much money I have. And this is a good way to avoid that. It\'s a situation I couldn\'t avoid the last time I was in a bank. Everyone gets weird when they learn how much money someone has.
But this was before my identity was revealed, and they would approach me not knowing who I was.
The man takes us to a lavish back room, and we sit down on comfortable seats. The big man talks with a few others that I assume are his rank. This bank is so big it does need multiple managers. I can\'t hear what they\'re talking about, but I believe it\'s about my account or me.
A few people in butler gear approach us and ask if we want anything to eat or drink. Sally is quick to order, but my eyes land on the managers talking to one another.
"When will I be able to see my account?"
They all jump a little at the direct question, and one of them quickly approaches. It\'s not the same man I was talking to a minute ago.
"There are some issues with your account, Angel Zern... Mainly being we don\'t have the funds to Withdraw everything in it..."
Ahh, it seems that my shop has been killing it since the last time I took money out. But I hadn\'t realized that it was doing this good.
"Okay, well, Withdraw around 25 percent of the total amount and bring it to me. I don\'t need everything."
The man takes out a handkerchief and wipes his sweat away.
"Yes, Angel Zern. That would be approximately 2,970,000 Gold. We can have it all out here within the next two hours, but it could take longer."
Wow.
I hadn\'t realized so much gold had accumulated in my time of surviving on the amount I had the last time I Withdrew. The reason they can\'t deposit it directly into my system. Inventory is because there is no way to do that. Not right now.
They must manually bring the gold from their bank and place it on the table before me. After that, I can put it in my inventory and leave.
"I don\'t need 2.97 million gold. Just bring me around 15k. That should be enough for a while."
Had I known that I had so much, I wouldn\'t have said 25 percent.
The man takes a deep breath and smiles as he heads back to his fellow managers. Another good thing about the amount change is it won\'t take so long to prepare. Only 20 minutes at the most.
Sally looks at me with raised eyebrows.
Shocked to know how much I have. It is a bit surprising.
