222-Money circumstances of the El Nor family




 
Speaking of which, what's going on in our household?

 One day I was somewhat curious, so I asked Tina about it.

'Housekeeping, sir?'

'Yeah. Tina always buys me groceries and stuff, but I didn't give you any money, did I? I just wondered how you're doing.

''That's not a problem at all, so you don't have to worry about it, Mr. Hurt.

 Tina says, but I'm wondering where the money for the food I eat every day comes from.

'Could it be that Tina buys her own food and other necessities of life out of her own pocket?

Well, sort of.

I knew it but you can tell me, Tina. I'll find a way to get money for you, too.

 I'm still a student, but I feel like I can still hunt demons and sell their materials to make ends meet.

 The Elnor family now had a large family.

 Me, Tina, Rifa, Luna, Yoko, Mai, Mei, Merdi, Luca, Seira, Elmia, Kikyou, Citry, and then Shiro.

 There are thirteen of us and one animal living together.
 The cost of food must be considerable.

 They must have a lot of money to spend on daily necessities other than food.


We really don't have a problem with food and other expenses.

'But you're taking that out of Tina's savings. I'm sorry about that.

 I didn't know.
 But now I realize.

 I was actually being fed by Tina........


 Even though she'd given me permission to do so, I'd grown my family to this point because I wanted to.

 I had put the burden of supporting my entire family on Tina alone.

 I'm filled with a sense of apology.

Tina, I'm sorry I didn't see it coming. I'm going to start earning money.

...Well, is it possible that Mr. Hurt is going to work for you?

'Yeah. I've become a bit stronger thanks to Tina's guidance, so I thought I could at least hunt demons and collect materials to fund it.

Surely Master Hurt would be able to hunt dragons and amass a fortune easily.

 No, you're right, you can't have a dragon.

 The image of Hakua making a complicated face when he saw me hunting the dragon was in my head.

 But ...


Do dragons make you rich if you slay them?

 I was just a little bit curious.

''Yes. Depending on the type of dragon, you could live with playing for ten years just by killing an attribute dragon and selling its materials.

Oh!

 That's great.
 An attribute dragon is rather easy to find if you look for it.

 And they're demons that can be defeated with an ordinary fire lance.

 I once defeated an attribute dragon that took control of a town once and regularly asked for sacrifices.

 I regretted that I hadn't been given some of its materials.

But I don't recommend slaying a dragon. After all, right now...''

'We have Chalk and Luca,'

'Exactly. Of course, I'm sure they wouldn't mind if it was a dragon that could harm humans.

Hmm, I'll hunt more weak demons then.

 If you create a few flame knights and hunt the mountains regularly, you'll get money and the area around them will be safe and free of demons. It would kill two birds with one stone.

''That's fine, but there's no need for a money scheme in the first place. Master Harut, please look here.

 Then Tina showed me something that looked like a card.

'What's this?'

Guild card.

Yeah, that's the one.

 A black card made of a plastic-like material with gold patterns on the edges (edges) had various information on it.


 Name: Tina-Haribel.
 Grade: S-class adventurer
 Profession : Magical Swordsman
 Deposits: 519,721,071,050 Spina


 Hmm?

 What... what is this?

 Isn't that a funny thing about the deposit amount column?

 In this world, a currency called spina is used.

 There are seven types of hard currency: copper, large copper, silver, large silver, gold, large gold, and white gold coins.

 One copper coin is one spina.
 One large copper coin is 10 spina.

 A silver coin is 100 spina.
 A large silver coin is 1,000 spinners.

 Gold coins are 10,000 spinners.
 A large gold coin is 100,000 spina.

 And a white gold coin is a million spina.


 In this world, they say you can put money in your guild card. It can be used like a bankbook.

 Coins are heavy, so it's tough to carry them around with you at all times.

 Especially for A-class adventurers who earn a lot of money, they have to carry around thousands of gold coins.

 That's why most people seem to keep their money in their guild cards.

 One drawback is that you can only withdraw money from a guild of the same lineage in which you deposited it.

 There are adventurers' guilds, merchants' guilds, and artisans' guilds.

 For example, money deposited in an adventurer's guild in a city can be withdrawn from an adventurer's guild in another city, but not from a merchant's guild or an artisan's guild.

 However, if you go to a city of a certain size, you can usually find all guilds, so it's not too inconvenient.


 By the way, the cost of living is not so different from the world I was from. A lunch at a restaurant costs about 500 to 1,000 spina at the cheapest point.

 With this in mind, let's take a look at Tina's deposit.

 One, two, three, four, five hundred million.


 Let's see, 500 billion spina?

 Huh?

 Tina had a deposit of five hundred thousand in platinum gold coins.

'Well, Tina. What's this?

My guild card.

 Yeah, I heard that earlier.

'I haven't shown up at the guild lately, so your name hasn't been updated. It's time for you to change it to Tina-Elnor.

 Oh, uh, yeah.
 I know.

 No, no, I mean, not that.

Actually, I'm also an S-class adventurer.

Yeah, that's great too!

 That's great too.

 I thought the highest rank for adventurers in this world was A-class.

 It's because you can't call yourself an S-class unless you are a tertiary.

 In this world, there are far fewer people with tertiary jobs.

 The only tertiary jobs I know of are...

 Luano the Wise, the headmaster of the Magic Academy
 Leo the Wise, the king of Bestiary (the kingdom of the beastmen)
 My brother, the holy knight Cain.
 Me, the wise man.
 And Tina, the magic swordsman.

 Just the five of them.

 I heard that Cain was recently promoted to a tertiary position.
 When I heard the news, I was surprised.

 Incidentally, my second brother, Leon, was able to become a Guardian Warrior Apprentice, a tertiary apprentice.

 My family is mostly strange, too.
 Does the Silverlei family have a family lineage that is prone to producing monsters?

 Well, it doesn't matter now.

 Tertiary jobs are the best forces in this world, so I thought there was no one who would take up the precarious position of an adventurer.

 That's why I was surprised to find out that Tina was an S-class adventurer, but...


 But you know what's even more awesome!

Tina, these deposits... what?


''It's the money I've saved for a hundred years so that when Haruhito-sama returns to this world one day, he can live without any inconvenience!
