"Huh?"

Rohan rubbed his eyes at the number Shion was showing him.

Checking his status window confirmed it wasn’t a hallucination.

And it wasn’t some random numbers smashed into a calculator either.

Of course, there was always the possibility that it was an illusion beyond what his status window could detect—

But for now, he tried to accept it at face value.

"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand…"

The digits kept climbing.

A completely unrealistic amount of money.

Rohan shut his mouth, his mind reeling.

But even in his daze, his mouth acted on its own.

"Wait, is this some kind of hypnosis app?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is a portion of the Testarossa inheritance I liquidated in Tigrova."

"Oh!"

Suddenly, it all made sense.

The scattered pieces of the puzzle snapped together in an instant.

"I’ll explain the rest over dinner. It’s too long to go over while standing around."

She needed to discuss where she’d be staying in Academy City—

And how she planned to use the money.

But more than anything, she simply wanted to waste time with them—@@novelbin@@

Talking about completely meaningless things.

Because those moments made her feel happier than anything else.

Back at the Dorms.

Before dinner, they needed to drop off their belongings.
