Chapter 224 Poor Rolen

Akna didn\'t know how to explain. You must know that the cost of living for a family of four in this empire requires 100 gold coins per month.

For magicians or adventurers, much more money is needed than that number.

After all, they still need to buy more resources and medicine to level up or heal if they get injured during the mission.

But according to rough calculations, it is normal for an ordinary adventurer to spend 1,000 gold coins per month.

The higher their class, the greater their spending, and, of course, the higher their income.

However, with Rolen, it is different. Akna frowned and thought: \'Strange, for someone of her class, the amount of gold coins she needs to spend in a month is at least 5,000–10,000 gold coins.\'

\'I can\'t imagine how she survives with those 40 gold coins. That amount of gold coins is not enough to buy medicine to treat injuries.\'

Akna immediately asked: "So… what do you usually eat?"

"Hm…" Rolen frowned in thought, and after a while she said: "Normally, I only eat energy medicine provided by the organization.?Ah, no, provided by my master."

"I eat three times a day and take two pills each time. Other necessities are provided by... my master, so I don\'t need to spend too much money."

Akna frowned: \'It seems... She likes to eat because she often drinks energy medicine.\'

\'Energy medicine doesn\'t taste like anything anyway, it just tastes like hay. But she is also very strange. If she regularly drinks such energy medicine, her body will definitely be poisoned.\'

\'However, she does not show any signs of poisoning.\'

Akna felt that Rolen\'s situation was extremely strange and that the organisation behind Alec was cruel.

Even though Akna was trained in the dark as an assassin, she still enjoyed many things that the other nobles couldn\'t.

"What about resources to cultivate? Is it all provided by your master?"

"Hm… Actually, my master only provides a little." Rolen said dejectedly: "Each person in the organisation, ah no, what I mean is… each servant of the master is only provided with a few resources."

"If we want more resources, we have to fight and defeat each other. The winner will take the loser\'s resources."

"It happens once a month, but I never lose; that\'s why I have a lot of resources to use, hehehehe…"

Listening to Rolen, Akna felt that this girl was pitiful. Even in Rolen\'s organisation, she still has no unity, which is completely different from the Queen\'s Dark Fire organisation.

Even though everyone is trained harshly and brutally, every member of \'Dark Fire\' is united and supports each other.

"What is the most expensive thing you have ever bought?" Akna continued asking.

Rolen frowned and thought, then said: "I don\'t know, but I don\'t buy anything. I hide the money I receive carefully."

"Why hide it? Don\'t you use that money to buy more resources for cultivating?"

Rolen shook his head: "No, my mother once told me... to prepare a large amount of money to get married in the future."

"Marry?" Akna felt like she had heard wrong. She immediately walked up to Rolen and asked again: "What do you mean... Are you saving money to get married?"

"Uhm! I need to save as much money as possible, so I can get married."

Listening to Rolen, Akna felt extremely confused: "You... who told you that you have to use money to get married?"

"My mother. She said that one must have a lot of money to be able to marry and take care of themselves, it is the tradition of my tribe."

She didn\'t understand, and she didn\'t want to learn more. What the hell kind of tradition is this? It was the first time she had heard of this kind of tradition.

"Are you sure?" Akna asked again.

"Of course!" Rolen said firmly: "My mother always told me that."

"So… where is your mother now?"

Hearing that, Rolen stopped walking, looked up at the sky, and said in a low voice: "My mother said..."

Suddenly, she remembered a memory that she would probably never forget.

In a small forest, a wooden house was burning fiercely. A woman with fox ears and a tail was lying on the floor with a large hole in her stomach that was bleeding like a stream.

Next to that woman was a little girl with blonde hair, ears, and a tail like hers.

"Mom, don\'t die... Don\'t leave because of me… I… I…"

"Don\'t cry… my daughter. Remember… save as much money as possible and find a good husband." The woman said gently.

Even though she was in excruciating pain from her stomach wound, she still smiled kindly.

"Go… Don\'t let them find you."

"But… What about you?"

"Me? Hahaha… Don\'t worry, I will be in the sky, watching the path you take."

"Mom…"

"Mom…"

"Mom…"

"Rolen!" Akna shouted.

Rolen was startled; she returned to the present. When she saw Akna\'s face, she pursed her lips and tried not to let her tears flow as she softly said: "My mother... is in heaven."

Hearing that, Akna sighed. She felt that Rolen was extremely pitiful, and Akna wanted to take her into her arms and comfort her.

Besides, Akna immediately trusted Rolen because she seemed a bit... stupid. Akna could see that Rolen wasn\'t pretending, but that she was truly stupid.

She was so stupid, to the point that she was adorable and pitiful.

\'I can\'t let such a pitiful and lovely girl be beaten down by Alec like a commodity.\'

\'Hm… if Young Master knew Rolen\'s past, he would definitely help her.\'

\'So... Young Master will have another woman by his side. But before that, I need to investigate Rolen\'s identity and the organisation behind her.\'

\'If everything goes well... I can make her the Young Master\'s woman and my ally.\'

After thinking about it, Akna said: "Rolen, the amount of money you receive each year is really too low."

"Heh?! Low? I feel like that\'s a lot of money."

"Do you know how much my monthly salary is?"

Rolen looked at Akna and asked curiously: "How much?"

Akna did not answer; instead, she held up five fingers.

Seeing that, Rolen laughed and said: "Hahaha… 5 gold coins? Even though it\'s much less than my salary, it\'s still very good."

"Ah! Wait, your salary is only 5 gold coins a month, but you bought me this much food… sorry…"

Rolen pursed her lips, looked at the half-eaten grilled meat stick in her hand, and handed it to Akna: "I... I don\'t have money to pay you... you... you can eat with me."

Seeing that, Akna felt even more sorry for Rolen, smiling and saying: "Don\'t worry, my salary is a lot, not 5 gold coins."

"So, how much?"

"Hahahaha… Rolen, if you become a servant to the Young Master, I will tell you the salary I am receiving."

"No…" Rolen shook her head: "I cannot betray the organisation; ah no, I cannot betray my master."

"Why? You just need to come to young master Lathel\'s castle to live; no one will be able to harm you, and Alec can\'t come and force you to return to him." Akna frowned and said.

"No, what I mean is… Aiya, I can\'t explain it, but specifically, I can\'t betray you. If I betray you, I will never be smarter."

"Smarter?" Akna seemed to be surprised, she glanced at Rolen, then smiled and said: "Okay, I won\'t force you. Do you want something else to eat?"

"Heh?! Can I...can I eat more?"

"Of course, you can eat whatever you want."

"Horay!!! Thank you, Akna; you are truly a good person."

"No…" Akna shook her head: "The young master is a good person. It\'s because the young master wants me to take care of you that I bought you so much food."

"Heh?! Is Lathel that good?" Rolen asked with wide eyes.

"Of course, Young Master Lathel also invited you to his castle to dine together. Think about it, Will a noble invite a servant like you to dine with them?"

Hearing that, Rolen felt it was extremely reasonable. She nodded and said: "Definitely not."

"That\'s right, that\'s why, Young Master Lathel is a good noble, right?"

"Yes, he is very good, hehehe…"

Akna sighed. Looking at Rolen\'s stupid expression, she became even more steadfast in her decision.

\'Young master, I\'m sorry for making this decision on my own, but… I can\'t let this girl fall into Alec\'s hands.\'

…

"Achooo!!!"

Lathel, sitting in the cab, suddenly sneezed, feeling like someone was talking about him.

\'Could it be that Alec is scolding me? It\'s definitely him.\'

Lathel sighed. He had been in this world for less than a month, and he had already done many things that made the male lead, Alec, hate him, which made him feel frustrated.

While he was thinking about many things, a bell rang outside the cab.

Lathel opened the car door, and a maid was there to help him out. He frowned and said: "No need, I..."

"No, young master…" The maid immediately interrupted him and said: "I have to take care of you carefully; otherwise, the captain will scold me."

Lathel sighed, reached out, and took her hand, letting the maid help him out of the car.

"You…" After getting out of the car, he glanced at the maid. While he was being helped out of the car, she held him tightly and used her thumb to rub the back of his hand.

"Hehehe… Young master, the cab is quite high; I\'ll just hold your hand a little tighter."

Lathel gritted his teeth and said: "You are not allowed to do that anymore, understand?"

"Understood, young master. Hehehe…"

Seeing the maid laughing and talking, Lathel felt like she wasn\'t afraid of him, nor did she care about what he said.

He sighed and went inside the security team\'s headquarters.

"Ah! Our hero has arrived." Laura\'s voice rang out.

At this time, she was wearing a light black dress with a white belt tied into a bow at the back.

"Captain Laura, don\'t call me a hero, okay?" Lathel sighed; he felt like everyone had read Lusha\'s article.

Laura then spoke teasingly: "Hahaha... What you did is very noticeable. Even if you don\'t want it, what you did was still incredible."

"Are you coming to visit Lafien today?"
