Cheat Awakening

Chapter 223: Chapter 223. Getting Damn Rich!

"Huh? Sis, Myne, why are you here? Do you need any help from me?"

Guided by the receptionist lady, Myne and Sylphy soon arrived at Lewis's office on the 4th floor.

"No, we don't need your help, Lewis. We're here because Lord Husband wants to sell some rare monster bodies he collected from the Dungeon of Strength and Divine Spirit Forest," Sylphy said with a smile while casually examining Lewis's luxurious, well-decorated office.

"What! Really? You don't know how long I've been waiting for this moment. When Myne came back from the Divine Spirit Forest and submitted that giant Catfish monster body parts, which later ended up in my hands, it was as if a door to a new world opened for me. We're still researching it, and every day we discover something new.

Because of our kingdom's terrain, capturing aquatic monsters is very difficult, and until they are transported from other places, most of them lose their value. Those days were the first time we got body parts of a still-fresh aquatic monster."

The more Lewis spoke, the more excited he became, his eyes literally shining with excitement. For a moment, Myne also saw the face of a crazy scientist in his expression.

"Okay, we understand that you're excited, but please calm down," Myne said, seeing Lewis getting closer and closer to him with a scary smile on his face.

"Huh? Oh, sorry, I got carried away. So, I was saying that I'm happy to buy whatever you want to sell, as long as they are related to alchemy," Lewis coughed to hide his embarrassment and spoke while adjusting his goggles.

"Should I take the monsters' corpses here? I think your office might not be able to accommodate all of them," Myne said, raising his eyebrows.

"Of course not, follow me. I will take you to my biggest warehouse," Lewis said excitedly and gestured for them to follow him. Find your next read at m_v l|e-NovelBin.net

Soon, while climbing down the staircase and following Lewis, who was greeted with the utmost respect by everyone in the building, they arrived behind the tower, where seven large warehouses, each around 50,000 square feet, were built in three rows.

"Here's warehouse number 3. This is my personal warehouse, and currently, 90% of it is empty, so you can empty out your inventory without any worry," Lewis said with a smile as he opened the warehouse door, which was tightly locked with various dangerous-looking magic circles.

Myne didn't waste time, he walked into the middle of the warehouse, which, as Lewis had said, was almost completely empty, other than a large movable wooden room in one corner. He then used the Realize skill to create a ceiling-high thin and long one-person platform for himself, in front of the surprised eyes of Lewis and Sylphy. Then using the Double Jump skill, he directly landed on top of it.

"Why did Myne create such a big platform, and how did he do that?" Lewis asked, dumbfounded.

"How did I know why he created a platform? As for how he did that, of course, he used his skills," Sylphy replied with a hint of impatience, clearly not happy that Myne didn't explain his plan to her in advance.

After reaching the top of the platform, Myne opened his inventory window and started taking out all the monster corpses he had collected for a long time.

As he did so, as if someone had opened the floodgates, row after row of monster bodies started falling out of thin air like rain, soon forming a small mountain in front of Myne's long platform.

"Shit, just how many monsters did he hunt in just two days? And hell, many of these monsters, I haven't even seen until now... Is that the Troll Gazer's body, the final boss monster of the Dungeon of Strength?" Lewis asked in disbelief.

"Yes, Lord Husband and Aisha cleared the Dungeon of Strength when they went to Adol Town on a date," Sylphy replied with an expressionless face. She clenched her fist tightly when she mentioned the last part, which Lewis clearly didn't have time to pay attention to, as a treasure trove of alchemical research lay in front of him.

While Lewis and Sylphy were lost in their own thoughts, Myne spent two entire minutes selecting and taking out every monster body from his inventory. After confirming that nothing was left, he opened a portal and appeared next to the absent-minded Sylphy.

"Honey? Are you okay?" Myne asked with concern, seeing Sylphy deep in thought.

"Huh? Oh, yes, I'm all right. Just surprised that you hunted so many new types of dangerous monsters," Sylphy replied with a smile.

"So, Lewis, how much time do you think you need to appraise all of them?" Sylphy asked, hurrying to engage Lewis so Myne wouldn't notice her abnormality.

"Well, since you two look busy, then I won't waste your time. Give me one hour, and I'll make a proper report of everything before giving you the total price of everything. Until then, why don't you wait in my office?" Lewis said, after calming down his inner crazy scientist, who now wanted nothing more than to gather all those monster body samples and lock himself in his lab.

"Okay, then you do your work, and we'll wait for you in your office," Myne said, opening a portal in front of himself. Both Sylphy and he walked through it before closing it immediately.

After Myne and Sylphy left, Lewis took out a small golden palm-sized badge-like object from his storage bag and infused magic energy into it. Soon, a sweet voice came from the badge.

"What's the matter, Clan Leader? Do you need anything?"

"Elsa, quickly gather all of our researchers from the 5th and 6th floors, as well as 20 most intelligent ones from the 3rd floor, and bring everyone to warehouse number 3 as fast as possible," Lewis said hurriedly.

"What happened, Clan Leader? Why are you gathering so many core members in such a hurry?" Elsa, Lewis's personal secretary who managed most of his personal and clan work while he was wasting his time in his lab, asked with concern.

"You'll know when you come here. Now, don't waste time and do what I said," Lewis impatiently ordered and cut off communication. He put the golden badge back into his storage bag and started examining monster bodies personally.

...

Soon, following a young, beautiful, middle-aged redhead beauty with big breasts, wearing a short one-piece office dress, 70 people ranging in age from 25 to 70 arrived, running and panting, came at warehouse number 3.

"Elsa, at least now tell us why Clan Leader summoned us in such a hurry," An old man, panting heavily from running too fast, asked.

"Yes, I was on the brink of a very important solution, but because of your nonstop urging, everything was wasted. If this matter isn't as important as you told me, then remember, I'll file a complaint against you to the Clan Leader. Damn it, three days of hard work wasted just like that," A bald uncle in his 50s spoke angrily, with tears in his eyes. He was clearly not joking.

"Yes, I was crafting an important solution, but because of your relentless urging, everything was wasted. If this matter is not as important as you told me, then remember I will file a complaint against you with the Clan Leader. Damn, my three days of hard work wasted just like that," A bald uncle in his fifties spoke angrily, tears in his eyes, making it clear he wasn't joking.

Meanwhile, the cold-faced beauty, Elsa, who only smiled and behaved cutely in front of Lewis, paid no attention to the uncles and grandpas behind her and continued to walk silently.

Just when another uncle wanted to complain, they reached warehouse number 3 and saw a long platform in the middle of the warehouse. In front of the platform lay a mountain of various monster bodies on top of each other. Lewis, whom everyone was looking at desperately, was examining a massive 5-meter-tall troll body while muttering something under his breath.

"Oh my god! Someone tell me I'm dreaming," An old man said with shock and disbelief.

"That's why the Clan Leader summoned us in such a hurry. Did he empty the treasury of our kingdom? I have to say, the Clan Leader really cares about us a lot.

Just yesterday, I told him we were about to use the last sample of that Aquatic monster, and today, he bought an entire warehouse of different monster bodies," A grandpa with a long white beard, dressed in a white and black robe, said emotionally while walking into the warehouse.

"Yes, our Clan Leader is truly a good man," Everyone else, except Elsa, followed the white beard grandpa suit and praised Lewis loudly while walking toward him with excitement.

"Tsk, screaming bastards, a moment ago they were complaining nonstop, but now, seeing the benefits, they wear their humble and bootlicking masks. Sigh, why did the Clan Leader even let those greedy leeches join the Clan?" Elsa couldn't help but mutter helplessly as she watched Lewis working hard with deep concern.

"You guys, stop your nonsense and quickly come help me sort out all these corpses and make a detailed report. We only have 40 minutes to do so before I have to negotiate with sellers about their prices. Make haste!" Lewis impatiently yelled at everyone, and all his Clan members immediately got to work.

...

One hour later, in Lewis's office:

"Mmm... Ohhoho, yesss, you're doing great. Keep it up. I never thought you'd improve your skills to this level..."

"Thank you, Myne. I learned this from Aisha. She said that you like it rough rather than gentle, so I started exercising..."

"But no matter what, your warm palm feels so good, especially when you move them up and down."

"Thank you for your compliment," Sylphy replied with a joyous look.

CRACK!

While Myne and Sylphy were sweetly conversing like a newlywed couple, which they were, the door suddenly swung open. Lewis and Elsa, exhausted and covered in various types of filth and blood, entered, looking more like sewer cleaners than the Clan Leader and personal secretary of a powerful and wealthy individual.

"Oh, you guys finished your work? I thought it would take more time... Sigh, Sylphy, honey, can you get off my back now? We'll continue testing your new massage techniques at home," Myne said with a helpless smile, seeing that Sylphy hadn't moved from his back even after Lewis entered the room.

"Ah, sorry. I just thought that two stinky monsters had attacked the Lewis Clan," Sylphy awkwardly laughed, trying to hide her shock at Lewis's sudden entrance. She had completely forgotten that she was sitting on Myne's ass and stroking his naked back.

Lewis chose to ignore his shameless elder sister's little trick and, after Myne had put on his t-shirt, handed him a long parchment on which everything, including the final price of monsters' bodies, was clearly written.

"Read this. I've already written it after a serious discussion with my other senior clan members. I've provided a very reasonable price for every monster body. But if you think there's a mistake, you can talk to me now."

Saying this, Lewis was about to sit in his personal comfortable chair, but then he remembered his own condition and chose to stand by the window with a solemn look on his face as he contemplated how he would deal with the short-term financial crisis after finalizing the deal with Myne.

Myne casually glanced at all the monster names and their quantities, nodding his head once in a while to give the impression that he was reading everything seriously. However, inside his mind, he was patting himself on the back for fooling Fenrir and her children with his sweet tongue and now collecting money for their efforts.

Maybe I can somehow convince Fenrir to kill more monsters for me? Anyway, for her, this is not a big deal. Hmmm, I need a solid script, Myne mused before finally looking at the total amount for everything.

1, 2, 3, 4... F*cking hell, four zeros!!! 30,000 platinum coins?!! Am I dreaming? Did I finally become a rich noble, who can swim in gold, throw coins at the poor while insulting and cursing them for entertainment, and in return only receive their kind blessings? At least on the face.

"Mother-Father, your son finally did what you always wanted to achieve but could never accomplish in your short life. I became damn rich, f*ck yes," Myne, with imaginary tears in his eyes, looked at the ceiling and thought emotionally while clenching his fist tightly.

"Lord Husband, are you okay? You are shaking. Is something wrong?" Seeing Myne's abnormal behaviour, Sylphy couldn't help but ask with concern.

"Couch, no, I am alright. I was just doing some mental calculations. Lewis, since we're already family, I have full faith in you. Since you've made everything clear, it should be alright. Let's complete the deal. I think you're definitely very busy to entertain us, right?"

Seeing Myne's unconditional trust, unknown to the fact that Myne had no idea about the market value of the monster corpses he had just sold, and was too lazy to think about it after seeing the total amount at the end of the parchment, Lewis finally put away his gloomy look and showed a smile before turning toward his tired secretary, who was like a statue standing in a corner with a cold look on her face.

"Elsa, did you bring what I asked you?"

"Yes, Clan Leader, here it is," Elsa nodded with an emotionless face and handed a luxurious white and golden storage bag to Lewis.

"Myne, here is your money. I hope you will give me more such big surprises in the future," Lewis said with a forced smile, handing over his entire net worth he had accumulated over many years to Myne.

"Don't worry, this is just the beginning of a cooperative relationship between our clans. This friendship will bring a lot of fortune to both of us," Myne said with an ear-to-ear grin as he tried to take the storage bag from Lewis, who was holding it very tightly and clearly didn't want to let go.

With a bit of effort, Myne managed to pull the bag away, and Lewis watched his hard-earned money fall into someone else's hands with a teary face.

"Sigh, although I am very happy that you believe in me very much, I still suggest you count the coins at least once, so there won't be any problems later," Lewis said after taking a deep breath, hiding his sadness.

[ Money: Platinum Coins ( 30,300 ) Gold Coins ( 5,100 ) ]

"Ah, no need. If we can't trust family, then whom can we trust? I have full faith in you, brother-in-law. By the way, it's getting late, and you're also very busy, so let's talk some other day. We're going now," Myne said with a smile while looking at the money count in his inventory.

"Okay, then take care. If you need any help, don't forget to come to me. My clan's doors are always open for you," Lewis nodded while waving his hand.

"Even if you hadn't said that, we already know about it," Sylphy said with a giggle, waving her hand as well while walking into the portal. She wanted to give her sweet little brother a farewell hug, but seeing his not-so-clean condition, she instantly abandoned the idea without hesitation.
