YM778.TV Chapter 129 - Compensation
Inside the reception building of the Military Academy of Xavier, the group of four teenagers waited for the receptionist to calculate their mission completion rewards and the total amount of compensation they should receive for facing extra trouble.
Varth handed over pieces of evidence to the receptionist, hoping to be compensated well for their effort. The monster subjugation mission mentioned that they only needed to slay a small group of monsters around 12 to twenty, but they took on a total of sixty.
Thus, they were eligible to demand a hefty sum in the form of compensation from the first mission only.
"We\'ll compensate you with three times the mission reward as you\'ve killed sixty monsters instead of thirty. You have obtained a total of 60000 contribution points. We have also rewarded you with 40000 contribution points for taking down the Tree of Evil and revealing the corruption of Leslie, saving us from a lot of future trouble. Is that alright with you?"
"Yes, miss," Varth said in a calm voice.
"We would like to purchase the corpses of the monsters, evolution materials, and their cores at market price. Do you wish to sell it to us?" The receptionist, with a nice smile and a bright personality, asked.
Varth shook his head and said, "Nope."
"Are you sure?"
"I\'m dead serious," Varth said, showing a bit of hostility for some reason.
"I understand." Rose nodded.
"Now, let\'s talk about the second part of the compensation," Varth said as he looked at her.
"We\'ll compensate you with 40000 contribution points for taking down more bandits than you were supposed to," Rose said after a few moments.
"That\'s good enough," Varth replied, feeling satisfied with the compensation offered by the military academy.
"Would you like to sell us their illegally obtained items?" Rose asked as she looked at him.
"Without a doubt," Varth answered, passing several spatial devices to her in a hurry.
It was best to sell illegally obtained items to the military academy for two reasons. First off, they wouldn\'t need to hire a Broker to sell illegal stuff. Broker is a new world\'s profession. The people in this profession are experts when it comes to virtual reality network hacking. They could also break the security system of spatial devices without much difficulty. And they mostly deal with selling information and illegal items. Second, they will obtain the money in minutes and at most an hour rather than waiting for days or even weeks.
"Then good sit please wait in the lobby. It will take a while for our Broker to pass through the security system of all the spatial devices of the bandits, find out the content inside it and collect their total value."
"How long will it take?" He asked.
"At most, Several minutes," Rose answered before walking away to a particular room of the reception building.
Varth also walked back to the lobby. John asked him about how long they have to wait. Varth first provided him with an answer and then broke down the good news to all the members.
"We\'ll be receiving a total of 140000 contribution points from mission alone. And the amount we\'re going to obtain from selling the items obtained from the bandits is still being calculated."
As soon as he said those words, their eyes brightened in excitement and happiness. More than a hundred thousand contribution point was a big deal. They could not only get a chef to prepare an evolution dish out of the Fruit of Darkness, but they could also get decent equipment to boost their strength.
Of course, this was undoubtedly the best news they got to hear this week.
\'I\'m feeling tired." Vincent said, sticking close to his girlfriend.
"Should I give you a message?" Leilani said, blinking her pretty eyes at him.
"Nah, I\'ll be fine after resting my head on your shoulder for a while," Vincent said, kissing her on the right side of her snow-white cheeks.
"Okay," Leilani replied, allowing him
"Umm," Lisa hummed, giving a curious look to her mother-like figure getting teased by a handsome man.
She didn\'t know why but she decided to interfere in their moment and proceeded to use Leilani as her possession like a spoiled princess.
Vincent and Lisa stuck close to Leilani. She found herself stuck between two grown adults with childish nature, but as she liked Vincent more than she loved herself and pitied the other for everything she had gone through, she put up with their selfish desires.
She let Vincent lean on her shoulder and didn\'t refuse the smooches he kept landing on the cheeks while Lisa rested on her laps.
**************
The officials of New Hope City took the rescued captives with them. Not only will the officials treat them gently and interrogate them without any aggression, but they will also compensate them money, a citizenship of the city, and a few other necessities such as a place to live and monthly rations.
"For how long?" One of the rescued captives asked the officials assigned to them under the command of the city lord.
"We will provide for you until you familiarize yourself with this city, get used to your surrounding, and find a stable job to become able to stand on your own two feet."
Charles, the steward of the city lord\'s mansion, replied with an amiable smile.
The captive\'s eyes widened in surprise and happiness, and some of them even cried with tears streaming out the corner of their eyes.
This cruel world still has a philanthropist willing to forgo any profit for the welfare of broken peoples like them.
It was hard to believe.
Is the city lord a saint?
A lot of them had the same thought popping up in their mind.
"That\'s just how he is," Charles said, knowing what they are feeling from their facial expressions.
"Now, please come up to me one by one, and I will sort things out for you guys. If you have a family in another city and want to live with them, I will send you there with compensation. If you want to become a citizen of Leslie, I will help apply you get citizenship for this city."
