That afternoon, dozens of carriages approached the gate of Slumdon Town, causing a stir among the city's residents. They hadn't seen traders or such a large group pass through in a long ti. The sheer number of carriages was so overwhelming that so might have
mistaken it for an army preparing for war.
"What is that?" one resident asked.
"Those are the materials the Lord ordered to start the city-building process," one of the workers replied.
"Are you kidding ? Did the Baron really spend that much money to build this city?" another resident exclaid.
"This is unbelievable," another said. "I can't believe this."
"I thought he had so ulterior motive, like enslaving us or sothing, but he's proven himself true to his word."
"But we'll have to see what he does next, right? At least the current Lord is really showing his efforts," another person replied, swallowing hard. "I regret not taking his offer seriously yesterday."
"No, I still doubt him," the first person chid in again. "This can't be done without a bad motive, right? They want profits, and there must be so sort of sacrifice involved!"
The carriages slowly made their way into town, eventually stopping in an open field that had been prepared to temporarily park them and offload the materials. From the most lavish carriage at the front, three figures erged a man and two won, who appeared to be leading the group.
The man, who seed to be a lee fighter, wore an eager expression. "Hahahaha!" he exclaid. "Finally, we will et our supre leader, Broken, the Legendary Broken Player!"
"Shut up and act normal, Rember! You might embarrass Broken with your stupidity!" Forev complained.
Pussycat chuckled at their conversation. "This town is quite charming. I can't wait to see what it will beco in the future."
"This is going to be a great city! I guarantee it! Hahaha!" Rember laughed loudly, drawing the attention of many onlookers.
"Hi, Slumdon people! I'm a BFF of your Mayor!" he shouted.
Forev quickly smacked Rember on the head with her bow. "Shut up, stupid!" she hissed. Igor, the Knight, escorted Rember and the others to et Broken. As soon as Broken stepped out of the House of Slumdon, he was imdiately greeted by the three guests he had been eagerly anticipating that day.
"Hahaha, Master. I missed you!" Rember quickened his pace towards Broken, attempting to give him a hug. But Broken was too quick, stepping aside and barely avoiding the embrace.
"Oh, Master, don't you know how much I miss you?" Rember said with a big smile. "It's been such a long ti since we last t, but you're so heartless to ."
"Hello, Broken," PussyCat, the blonde-haired mage, greeted with a warm smile. "I've missed you too."
Forev, the black-haired archer with an Asian face, gave a wave. "Hi, Baron of Slumdon Town. It's great to visit your city," she said.
Broken smiled, welcoming them all. "I'm so happy you could co. I want to hear everything you've been up to."
PussyCat shook her head with a chuckle. "Nothing too exciting on our end. Just a few troubles, thanks to our problem-seeking friend over here."
"That's not trouble; it's entertainnt, hahaha," Rember retorted.
Forev shot him a glare. "This idiot nearly angered an entire village. If he hadn't paid them off with gold, those NPCs might have chased him into the real world and burned him for real."
"Hahaha, that's too morable. I still recall that mont vividly," Rember responded. "But this ga is a robbery! It's taken so much of my money."
"That's because of your stupidity. Don't bla the ga!" Forev snapped.
PussyCat and Broken laughed at their conversation.
"Luckily, I'm very wealthy, so that amount of money is no problem for , haha,"
Rember added.
Broken laughed and said. "Well, no matter what chaos you bring, it's good to see you all. Welco to Slumdon Town."
They all entered the house and quickly took their seats in the room.
"Woah, this place is quite cool even though it's barren and hot outside. Haha," Rember comnted, throwing himself onto the sofa.
"You sure can't keep your mouth shut, huh?" Forev remarked.
"Anyone who sees this place would say the sa, right, Master?" Rember said to Broken.
"Yes," Broken replied. "This place is well-maintained by a maid."
Just then, Yara entered the living room with a tray full of glasses of various beverages. She smiled warmly at the guests before setting the tray down on the table in front of them. She then offered each guest their drink of choice before stepping back and leaving.
"She is Yara, soone who has taken great care of this place," Broken said. "Hi, Yara... are you getting paid well enough?" Rember then asked.
"Uhm... Ehm..." Yara was taken aback by the sudden question.
"Don't worry, I'll give you even more money for doing a good job," Rember said. "Co to and tell , has Master Broken been treating you well?"
"I'm sorry," Yara said, her voice wavering. "But I'm just a maid, sir. If you want to buy , you'll need to ask Lord Broken first," she added hesitantly.
"Damn, who wants to buy you," Rember muttered. "You're not actually selling her, right, Master?"
Forev then smacked Rember on the head with her bow. "Just shut up; you're scaring her."
Forev turned to Yara and said, "Go on with your work. That guy clearly left his brain behind." "Ye-yes." Yara said before quickly walking away.
After Yara left, Pussycat turned to Broken. "Broken, why are there so many beautiful girls around you?"
"I heard you also invited three girls to bathe with you, is that true, Broken?" Forev asked, raising an eyebrow.
"What, really??? Master, you are so cool, hahaha!" Rember exclaid with a hearty laugh. "Just a short ti apart, and you've already transford into a Harem King!"
"No, that's not true," Broken said. "Who told you that?"
"The girl with blonde twin-tails in front of the house warned us not to get too close to you," PussyCat added. "lliandra."
"That's a misunderstanding!" Broken said defensively.
"We wouldn't mind if that were true, either," Pussycat replied with a small laugh. Rember then laughed heartily. "Master, how have you achieved such great heights in such a short span of ti? You should have stayed humble and let us help you out more. Now you've beco the Harem King with so many won around you."
Forev clicked her tongue in frustration. "Can you stop acting corny like that, you idiot!"
After a few minutes of chatting, Freya stepped out of the elevator and walked towards them.
"Hi there! Finally, you made it here," she exclaid.
"Haha, Freya. If it weren't for you, I probably would've been forgotten by my Master Broken already. He forgets so easily. I want to devote my life to him forever," Rember said, his face showing regret as he kneeled down.
"You idiot, can you stop it already!" Forev yelled, her face twisted with anger as she kicked Rember's knee. "You've taken your stupid role-playing too far. Shut up or I'll kill you right here and now!"
They settled into the cozy living room, chatting and laughing while they sipped their drinks and nibbled on small plates of food. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with everyone enjoying each other's company.
After a while, when the casual conversation had run its course, Rember spoke up with confidence, "Let's get straight to the point, Master. About the investnts!"
