Chapter 111: Station PT-CP992-057!
Draco looked around him as the tall and dark buildings brightly with all kinds of colors that widely contrasted the feeling the prison wanted to express.
He felt himself within a Sci-Fi City as all kinds of vehicles flew on top of him.
Technological Banners floated in the air, and Drones and other robots flew around them as one Drone came in front of the group once it noticed them and looked through its database to find that they were new to the city.
The first it did was first scan them with its laser to guess what Race they were.
It immediately analyzed that Alexander and Co were humans, but it lagged a bit when it came to Draco until it blinked and considered him a human as he looked exactly like one.
Draco looked at this amusingly as he wanted to see what this little thing would do next.
Out of the sides of the Drone, two little hands appeared and made a backflip before it opened its front eyes which were small blue holograms.
Its white body separated by exquisite black lines vibrated as a holographic mouth opened and a female voice was heard.
'Hello, Dear Transcendents, Welcome to Station PT-CP992-057. I will be your assistant through this little period we have here. Would you like me to introduce you to what you have to do while inside a station?" it asked.
Draco flashed a slight smile and said.
"Go on."
"Well, the First thing one needs is this bracelet to do anything they need in this Station as it acts like an Identification Device, it's where you keep your money, your information, and your documents and you cannot enter any building without holding it. It also helps us to find you if you find yourself in an emergency." It said.
"Oh, is that so? I shall take one then." Draco opened his eyes slightly and said while thinking to himself that this wasn't the only thing they would do with it.
"That would be 250 Prison Coins, Sir."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Draco looked at the small Drone in silence as he finally started to form an idea about this place.
Alexander and his wives smacked their heads as they also figured out what this whole thing was about.
The Drone put on a professional smile and held out its hand as it waited for Draco and Co to do anything. Then, once it saw that they didn't move in anyway it said.
"If you don't have money on you now you could still take the bracelets and pay for them later." it said.
Alexander and his wives smiled as they thought this would make things easier, but, Draco was much more cautious.
"How much would we need to pay by then?"
"1000 Prison Coins, Sir. and for every day you Do not pay the price rises by 30%" It replied.
"Well fu-" Alexander almost cursed.
"Ridiculous."
"These Bastards!" One of Alexander's wives shouted.
"What if we don't get the bracelets?" Draco asked.
"You will be kicked out of the City until you have enough money to buy the bracelets." The Drone replied emotionlessly.
"You Money Loving Leaches! I'm going to destroy this Station!" The most Violent of Alexander's wives yelled in anger.
"Please keep your calm miss, Otherwise, we would have to act to protect the tranquility of the Station." The drone looked at her and threatened her in its emotionless tone.
Draco not paying any mind to this called Zero in his mind.
Zero once more guessing what Draco would say replied Directly.
[You can indeed buy Prison Coins in the Shop, Host. They've been added to the Miscellaneous Store the second you set foot in here.]
"That is indeed useful, what is the price?" He asked.
[It's a 1:1 Ration, Host.]
"Huh? Was it always like this? What would have been the ratio had I exchanged while I was in the Empire?" He asked.
[It depends on your Realm and it was set so the Gold-to-currency ratio will be 1:1 depending on the Currency you first want to exchange to.]
"Mhm, that's good. What if I want to exchange for the empire's coins right now?" Draco asked.
[Gold to Devanian Dollar is 1:1000 and Devanian Dollar.] She replied.
"I see." Draco said.
"Exchange 1 Trillion Coins." he ordered.
[Very Well, Host.]
[Done! The Coins are in your Inventory.]
"Give me 1 bracelet for every one of us here, we also need two Estates they should be close to each other, how much would that cost in total?" Draco asked.
Alexander and his wives looked at Draco in shock not understanding where he got that money.
"The Drone also didn't quite understand what Draco meant by that so it looked at him and said.
"If you're talking about asking for a loan then it would cost you 200 Billion Prison Coins to get Top-Class Estates that are located in one of the best Luxurious Districts and the Bracelets will be free of charge, however, the price will increase every year you don't pay by 30%."
"I'm not talking about taking a loan, I'm paying right now." Draco said once more shocking everybody here even the Drone lagged for the second time before it processed what was said and then it replied.
"Well, Esteemed Transcendent, That would cost you 20 Billion Prison Coins and once more the Bracelets will be free of charge and seeing as it's your first hour here, We will even gift you a Black Diamond Prison Card that has many benefits such as connections to the Top-Echelonsof the Prison, discounts everywhere you go and Monthly as well as Yearly Gifts and many more other benefits.
It also counts as a Bank Card for the Portalia OmniBank." The Drone suddenly changed its tone to address Draco respectfully.
Draco hearing all of this was amused at how the price went from 200 Billion to just 20 Billion and how he would already have connections to the Top Powerhouses and the Rich gentlemen of the Prison.
This time he couldn't just smoothly go about Controlling them like he did in the Empire.
But he was indeed cooking up plans as he put on his signature Smile.
