Chapter 2-3 : A Discussion With The Queen

Two thousand gold coins wasn't a small amount of money.

You could buy a bowl of soup with meatballs in Hamanulle with one bronze coin.

If converted to Japanese yen, one bronze coin is about 100 yen (1 dollar).

100 bronze coins equals 1 silver coin, and 10 silver coins equals 1 gold coin.

Because 1 bronze is equivalent to 100 yen, that means one silver coin is equivalent to 10,000 yen, and one gold coin is equivalent to 100,000 yen.

In other words, 2,000 gold coins is about 200,000,000 yen.

By the way, there were dragons stronger than Zirnitra out there that were worth 100,000 gold coins or 10 billion yen.

Zirnitra's body contained miasma, so processing it would cost money and time.

The 2,000 gold coins Mylia received was the amount after deducting work fees.

The magic stones that were embedded in the scales would be used in research on the development of magic tools, so the queen bought it for a slightly high price.

If Mylia sold it to a monster material shop in the city, she wouldn't have gotten that much money.

(Wh... What should I do...? Chloe onee-chan...)

Mylia was getting scared.

When she lived in Japan, she always waited for the supermarket staff to put discount stickers on the products right before closing so that she could buy them cheaply.

In other words, she had been living in poverty even before she was born into the poor Atwood Family.

She could make money by selling Dabola materials in Hamanulle, but Titania taught her not to make more money than she needed because she was worried if Mylia would lose herself when she became too rich.

She knew that Mylia would eventually become the magician who made the most money in the kingdom.

However, she never thought that Mylia would get a tremendous amount of money even before she became a magician.

When Mylia was in confusion, she remembered Titania said, "If you ever have problems related to money, you can ask your onee-chan for advice. She is the top student in the Commerce Department after all."

(Yeah, Master's right. I should talk with Chloe onee-chan about this.)

「I will keep this corpse in my magic bag for now. Too bad that it contains miasma, otherwise we could eat its meat.」(Dalia)

Dalia approached Zirnitra's corpse, took out her magic bag from her pocket, opened it and pointed the mouth of the bag toward the corpse.

And then, Zirnitra's corpse that was floating in the air sucked into her magic bag.

After she recovered the corpse, Dalia returned to the queen's side.

(So we can't eat its meat, huh? Well, I had a bad feeling when I saw the black mist coming out of its body, so I also thought that it was a bad thing to eat. Still, I'm curious about how it tastes...)

A moment later, a maid came into the audience room holding a tray that was filled with a large pile of gold coins on top of it.

Her arms were shaking a little. Perhaps the tray was heavy.

(Whoaaa... I never thought that gold coins would look so pretty... This is amazing...!)

Mylia was a smart girl who could count and manage money. She lived by herself when she was In Japan after all.
