After their discussion about his business and Gene, Albert finally reached into his satchel and pulled out five pouches containing the gold coins that they had received from the Velthams as compensation.
The faint clinking of coins inside it echoed in the room…
Rayven couldn't help but smile after seeing this result.
"You've earned this…" Albert said, placing the pouch firmly on Rayven's desk.
"One thousand gold coins. Your reward for defeating Cedric."
"All of it? I don't mind even if you only give half of it. I heard you spent a lot to sponsor the Competition as well." Rayven said.
"Don't worry about it. Now that the Velthams are gone, we can restart our business. It'll just be a matter of time before we can get back on our own feet." Albert said as he recalled how they were only left with half of their previous employees. Once they're back on track, he was sure that they'd become even richer since their largest competition had already left to another city.
