BXBX NOVEL Chapter 48: Finally, My Golds!
When Nemesis said these words seriously, Nyx smiled and remembered the past and said, "Yes, I was young once, spiritually, well, I won\'t make fun of you, I\'m happy enough that my little girl is old enough to fall in love."
When these words were heard in the hall, everyone nodded solemnly in agreement. Even a personality like Apate was happy for her sister. First Moros changed and laughed for the first time, then Aether laughed even though he hadn\'t been interested in anything for a long time, and Nemesis fell in love for the first and indeed the last time.
Even if James didn\'t realise it, Chaos-Borns began to change from the bottom up.
Still, there was some time before James would be able to attend the tournament, after all, he still had to meet Ronald, enter the imperial library and then ascend to the 10th floor.
He didn\'t know, though, that every moment he waited, he was in greater danger, because it wasn\'t just a handful of gods targeting him on the 10th floor, there were thousands of them, and that number was growing every day.
Thousands of settlements were uniting against Olympus and Asgard.
Everything was starting to heat up...
-----
"Are you sure you\'re all right, Master James?"
"I\'m fine, otherwise why would I have come to see you?"
James had managed to fully recover after three days and as he walked around the city, he finally made it to Ronald\'s area.
It was quite interesting that he was meeting one of the three most authorised people in the tower again.
"Well then, please come and sit down and I\'ll offer you a cup of tea," Ronald said, like the gods, he had always watched James and his admiration for him had grown exponentially.
"Thank you," James replied, smiling as he took a sip of tea:
"What am I to make of you taking such an interest in me, Master Ronald?"
After this question, Ronald calmly sat down on the seat in front of James and then revealed a box, after a short time, he began to speak:
"We have already given you your rewards, but since you have again achieved great success, the committee has decided to hand over your accumulated gifts to you later."
Ronald\'s words seemed to have caught James\' attention enormously, his gaze became serious but also emotional.
"I wanted to personally deliver the gifts of the seventh, eighth and ninth floors to you, along with your accumulated gold rewards."
James, who seemed confused by these words, shook his head and then said, "Wait a minute...It was clearly stated in the cleaning window of the 9th floor. It was clearly stated in the cleaning window of the 9th floor that I would not be given successive rewards for getting help, if this is a joke, it\'s not very funny Ronald."
Ronald smiled and spoke after what he heard:
"Yes, that\'s what should have happened, but after a thorough investigation we\'ve found out that what happened on the 9th floor shouldn\'t have happened, the delegation is upset, we\'re doing a big investigation, what happened on the upper floors, someone or something is targeting you, well, of course, you\'re known to be the one who chose Mistress Nyx."
James looked genuinely shocked at these words, he had just learnt that his life was being targeted for no reason.
"Is that why you changed your mind?" James suddenly asked, and the answer he received made him smile more than it shocked him:
"Not exactly, we were planning to give your rewards differently, like doubling the gold for example, but Madam Nemesis is very good at persuading others, we should point that out."
Ronald\'s words seemed to make James happy.
"Haha...I guess I should thank Nemesis, it\'s amazing that she saved my life and did something like this even though we\'ve only just met...."
James uttered these words and then took another sip of his tea. He could realise that his heart was pounding.
Ronald, on the other hand, easily realised this and said, "Well, well...Would you look at this." in a voice so low that even James could not hear it.
"She told us that what happened on the 9th floor was a mistake and that it was our fault, well of course it was, we had to do a better inspection after all. After a hundred things he said we were convinced and we put your prizes in this storage box you see here, there are only two prizes and a pouch of gold. Please check it."
Saying these words, Ronald pushed the box towards James and as soon as James touched the box, it glowed brightly.
After this gigantic light, a window opened in front of James:
[Man] Sachet of Gold Used!
79,031,782 Gold Earned!]
As soon as James saw this gold number, he looked at Ronald without even observing the items given to him, and then asked, "Are we sure there\'s no mistake here?"
Hearing this, Ronald shook his head from side to side and spoke:
"A monster that shouldn\'t have died in a tutorial that shouldn\'t have been defeated was killed, and you shouldn\'t have earned gold there, but that happened because it was a huge achievement. The second floor should not have been completely cleared, as a secret mission, 10 goblins should have been killed by surviving only 7 days, you slaughtered the Goblin King, this was a huge achievement.
And to top it all off, you killed a Monster God, something that hasn\'t been achieved this early since the time of Master Erebus, it\'s been a long, long time."
Those words alone made James shut his mouth.
He had achieved more than he had ever thought or remembered.
