The store in front of me was called Aston Martin Tokyo—a car dealership. Not for ordinary cars, but for luxury ones. I looked through the glass and saw many high-end vehicles inside.
BMWs, Porsches, and even Ferraris and Lamborghinis. It was truly impressive. It was my first time seeing cars like those in person. Not even walking around Tokyo had I ever had the chance to see a Ferrari.
Daiki stepped closer to me and said, "This might be difficult."
"Hm?"
"You're only 13 years old, Mr. Kyo. You can't buy a car." He smiled at me.
"That's why I brought you here."
"What?" He was speechless, staring at me. "I can't do that. I work for you, but this is a bit too much."
"I trust you, Daiki. You just need to sign the documents for me. I'll pay for the car in cash—I have the money in my account. After that, my father will transfer the car into his name."
"The bureaucracy of transferring a car to someone else is quite a hassle."
"That's fine. So, what do you say?" I asked, smiling at him.
Daiki stayed silent for a while, thinking carefully before answering. Then he said, "Don't you think it'd be better if I went to your house and brought your mother?"
Hearing that, I sighed.
"Even though it's my father's birthday, I also want it to be a surprise for my mother. And if she finds out I'm doing this, she definitely won't allow it."
"It is a bit crazy, after all."
"I don't think so. They're my parents, and they support me a lot."
I always thought they were very well off financially—but that's not really the case. So now, I want to start helping them, giving them gifts. I'm also planning to look for a new house soon.
My parents will definitely feel uncomfortable if I start spending a lot of money on them, but I still want to do it.
"You're a great son, Kyo." Daiki chuckled and ruffled my hair. "Ah, sorry—I didn't mean to," he added, startled.
"Do you have a child, Daiki?"
"I have a daughter. She's only four." He smiled, probably remembering her face.
I stepped into the store.
"Let's go," I called to him.
As soon as we entered, a man in a suit approached us. He looked to be over 40. His expression was very serious, and he looked at me as if I were nothing.
Are these people always like this?
I glanced down and noticed I was wearing very ordinary clothes.
But as soon as he reached us, his expression suddenly changed.
"Welcome to Aston Martin. My name is Sota Mizuhiko."
Sota? This guy has the same name as my character in the series?
And that smile? You were just looking at me with disdain.
"My name is Kyo Evans. This is Daiki, my driver. I came here to buy a car—could you help me with that?" I said casually, smiling at him.
The man looked visibly uncomfortable and asked in a cold tone,
"What kind of car are you looking for, sir?"

I talked for a while with the salesman, Sota, without caring what he thought of me, and told him I wanted an SUV—a car for everyday use. But a luxury one.
Well, all the cars here are luxury anyway.
He started showing me some SUVs, and most of them were BMWs. All very beautiful—and very expensive.
The average price of the cars here was around 10 to 15 million yen.
That's close to 100,000 dollars. A considerable amount.
But it's something I can afford.
My contract with the publisher for Overlord improved with each volume, and the contract I signed for Oregairu is very good. The money I've earned over the years is no joke. I probably have more than 100 million yen in my bank account.
Actually… maybe even 200 million.
I don't know exactly how much I have, since it's an account I rarely use and most of the money is invested. I usually ask my father to withdraw some money for me to use during the month—he always handles that.
But of course, I also have access to the account.
'But there's a problem. The chances of the bank calling my father about this transaction are very high. He's the account holder, after all.'
I'll talk directly to the account manager and try to sort this out. I've never spoken to him before, but I do have his contact.
After looking at a few cars, I asked Daiki for his opinion.
"Which car would you like to receive? I don't know much about cars. I think this one looks nice."
I pointed at a black BMW. It was a large four-door vehicle—one I'd never seen before.
'Well, I'm technically in the future now. This car didn't exist in my old world.'
Its release year is 2034… it came out last year.
"It's a good car—more than enough for you and your father. But the price is a bit…"
Its price is 16 million yen. One of the most expensive cars in the store.
After thinking for a moment, I said to the salesman,
"Excuse me, I need to speak with my account manager."
I took out my phone and called him.
A few seconds later, he answered.
"Hello?"
"Sorry for calling so suddenly."
"Mr. Kyo? How can I help you?"
"I need to buy something very expensive, and I want your help. But you can't tell my father about it."
"That is…"
