(EP-90.1) My Home #1

090 My Warm Home #1

There were as many faculty members as students living in Ark.

They naturally had different kinds of work and positions. And, of course, they were provided with many amenities.

A faculty exclusive training ground.

A faculty exclusive restaurant.

There were even exclusive villa facilities

Of course, not all faculty members enjoyed such benefits because they were not given free of charge and actually had a price attached.

It could be said that the lower-level employees, like Marmar, could not enjoy any of the above.

Fortunately, the same was not true regarding the bank.

It is my first time visiting the bank. People are really leaving and borrowing money from here..!

Going through the lobbys clean marble floor, Marmars tail was wagging excitedly from side to side.

Imp?

An Imp is in the bank?

Was there a mistake?

Marmar was attracting attention. It might be best to finish our business here as quickly as possible and get out of the bank immediately, lest we got into trouble.

Next-.

After the person in front finished his business, I was finally able to face the bank teller.

The teller was a blonde girl, wearing a white blouse and glasses, who was looking at me sternly.

She had a nameplate on her chest with the name Economic Helper Econoy. And judging from her short and pointed ears, she was probably a Nymph.

I guess there was some nymph quota system in hiring staff.

There was a problem, though. The bank clerk, Econoi, was yelling at me for some reason.

Todays lending system has ended!

But I havent said anything yet.

Then why are you here!?

.

She seemed very angry for a Nymph. As I was at a loss on what to do, Marmar, who stood behind me, poked my back with her tail and softly said.

Today is Sunday. The Sunday staff are usually very grumpy.

Ah, I understand.

It must be stressful to work on weekends when others were off. But I didnt think it was right to just take your anger out on customers.

I said.

My name is Theo Gospel. I heard that Silver Rank receives a 10 million coin promotion bonus.

Like what I just said, I came here to claim the 10 million coins for achieving the Silver Rank.

The reason why I needed money was to get Marmar a proper residence.

Theo, Theo Gospel. Theo Gospel.

Econoi pulled out a thick book and flipped through the list. She was probably looking for an account with my name on it.

After waiting for a long while, Econoi said.

There are four people!

Your name is Theo Gospel, correct?

Yes!

As expected, the name Theo Gospel was quite common. After all, it was the default surname given to children by the church.

I then remembered the book I was carrying on my back.

The one with the name Theo Gospel and Priga Nightfall, who was the Saintess. Perhaps that was really not me and just a person with the same name.

Please look for a relatively recent deposit.

Fwip, fwip-.

After flipping through the pages for some time, Econoi suddenly exclaimed, Ah-! then said.

Here, there is an account with 12.5 million coins! So, 10 million coins.

After a brief verification, I was given a thick bundle of banknotes.

Before this, Id only held gold or silver coins. These banknotes had a different feeling in my hand.

Transactions would be much faster with a bankbook! If you are keen in finance, you can avail one! Would you like to take a look?

Sure thing. Marmar, you should get a bankbook too.

A bankbook?

After withdrawing the 10 million coins, Marmar and I got our bankbooks made.

It was called a bankbook, but it was really just a small booklet with a leather cover and parchment papers containing numbers.

So the number written here is my money, right?

Marmar kept looking at the words 10,000C written on her first ever bankbook in fascination.

I never thought I would open a bank account in my life!

Then lets go and find you a house. Its Sunday, theres a lot to do.

I took Marmar and headed to the staff quarters.

* * *

If I had to pick three necessities that people needed; it would be food, clothing, and shelter.

What you wore, what you ate, and your personal living environment.

Perhaps, it would not be an exaggeration to say that these three factors were the root of human needs.

In that sense, choosing a house was a very important and serious task.

I think this is good!

Marmar shouted as if she liked the house just from looking around once.

It was a two-story row house exclusive to faculty members and staff.

There were five rooms lined up and combined into one big wooden building, giving off a cramped feeling.

The name of the building wasFairy Paradise.

I actually didnt like it because it looked old and shabby.

I like it here!

However, Marmar was saying she liked it despite not having seen other places.

Why do you like this place?

There is a second floor! I, Marmar, always dreamed of having the high ground!
