[Episode 8]
In this world, the concept of a bank account was a little different from the modern one. When you open an account, they give you a safe, not a bankbook.
In addition, to open an account, a considerable amount of money was required under the name of ‘account opening fee’.
The personal safe rental fee and key production cost The initial cost of registering the magic system was said to be quite high.
Therefore, the main customers of banks were nobles and wealthy merchants.
The place where the bank is run is the Mage Tower, and it is the safest place in the world where everything is made of magic and magic.
The personal safe was thoroughly protected by the bank with triple magic and barriers, and only the owner had the right to access the account.
As if contemplating my words, he lightly tapped the table with his index finger, then smiled.
“It’s not difficult. Now that you’ve said that, shall we go out together after breakfast?”
do you do it right away?
When I widened my eyes, Erno Etam gently seated me on his lap and opened his mouth.
“I can do anything my daughter wants. If you want an island of your name, I’ll buy you an island. If you want a house, I’ll buy you a house. Neither the land nor the mines are bad. So if there’s anything you’d like, just let me know.”
He talked about what he could do.
But I didn’t want to receive a gift on such a crazy scale.
Nothing else mattered. It looks great at first glance, but it actually has a huge pitfall.
I plan to part with him on good terms someday. Of course, if nothing major happens, the gift he gave will remain in my name.
But from the moment I broke up with him, I will manage them.
then?
Naturally, it will require billions of dollars in administrative expenses.
In other words, even if you make a fortune from Erno Etam, the money will slip out of your hands like sand.
Still, being grateful is something I’m grateful for, so I should say hello.
“Gansammida Abba…”
No, I have to act like a cute daughter.
“dad!”
I smiled broadly and hugged Erno Etham, shouted, and sprinted away before he could get angry.
“….”
Normally, I would have even stroked his cheek, but for some reason, he remained stiff and kept his mouth firmly shut.
“…This is a bit fresh.”
he murmured something softly.
It was so soft that I couldn’t hear it properly.
“Could you say it again?”
“How far…?”
“The title that called me.”
If it’s a title called Erno Etham…
“Dad…?”
His eyes widened slightly.
“Once more.”
“Oh Dad…?”
He nodded once.
‘Doesn’t he like being called daddy by a fake?’
Growing up, I knew what that meant.
“Father…”
His eyebrows curled upward the moment he corrected the title, thinking that he was telling him to fix something.
Erno Etam looked at me quietly and then opened his mouth without saying anything.
“So why are you calling me? daughter.”
“…?”
You call me, you crazy man!
It seems that he didn’t like the name either.
“Yeah no.”
“okay?”
He stroked my hair and cut the meat into bite-sized pieces and put it on my plate.
Sometimes he feels like a really homely father, and even though he knows it’s all a play, he’s startled.
I shook off my thoughts and finished my meal.
Although it seemed like they were sitting on a cushion of thorns, the meal was delicious.
“Whoa, I wrote it down… I ate well!”
He emptied a bowl of pudding and patted his stomach.
* * *
“Come here, sweetheart.”
After eating, he took me in his arms and climbed into the carriage.
It was the first carriage I ever rode here. Erno Etam, who sat me down on the soft sofa, sat across from me.
I glanced at him.
The more I looked at it, the more it was truly heavenly in itself. Every time there, he looked at me with eyes dripping with honey.
‘It’s a real acting god…’
If it was Hyundai, the best actor award would have been a given.
“My daughter seems to be smart, but I’m worried because she doesn’t seem to be greedy.”
he said, crossing his legs.
“yes…?”
“Do you like toys?”
“A toy?”
Without thinking, I shook my head. Erno Etham gave a look of surprise.
“I didn’t know you hated toys.”
“I don’t have any toys, but I’ve never played with them, so it’s okay.”
I shook my head and said, like a resolute child who has grown up early.
‘If I do this, I’m usually considered to be a grown-up.’
And it was true that he didn’t want toys.
My age is also my age, but I never really played with toys.
Actually, isn’t it a familiar taste or a scary method?
However, even if you look at the food you don’t know and think it’s appetizing, you don’t think you should eat it even if you die.
The same goes for toys. If you don’t know what fun is, you don’t even want to do it.
Besides, toys were one of the luxuries.
It’s not that it’s expensive enough that only aristocrats can afford it, but it doesn’t mean that if you don’t have parents or you don’t care about your children, it’s not something they pay much attention to.
Here, I grew up in the hands of maids, and in my previous life, I was in a situation where I only sucked my fingers in front of toys and watched them.
“…”
Erno Etam looked at me silently, not knowing what he was thinking, then snapped his fingers.
In an instant, the carriage changed direction.
And soon after, the carriage stopped.
When I came to my senses, I was standing in front of a jaw-dropping toy store.
“Father…?”
“I can’t believe my daughter can’t play with one of the toys, so take your pick.”
“That gancha is…”
“Or it would be nice to buy this store and give it to you.”
The moment he raised his hand, I was startled and grabbed him by the crotch of his trousers.
prison.
I grabbed it so quickly that I buried my face in his leg.
I rubbed my red nose and opened my mouth with a smile.
“I’ll pick it when my father picks it up.”
I quickly changed my mind.
‘So I don’t need a toy store! I don’t even have the ability to manage!’
When he looked up earnestly with his thoughts, Erno Etam’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
He nodded slowly, uncharacteristically.
‘Even if it’s a toy, it’s what kids play with…’
Thinking that it’s very difficult to match it to the rhythm, I sighed and slowly walked around the spacious store.
“Wow…”
But the products on display were not simply children’s toys.
The toys moved on their own. Some pieces of wood even walked around.
There was even a snowball with a wizard inside.
As the wizard figure swung his wand, snow fell inside a desolate snowball with nothing around.
There was also a figure that assembles a golem, but as a promotional phrase, it is written that ‘the material is a fragment of an actual golem’.
‘As expected, it’s a fantasy world… Even toys have different scales.’
I looked around for a long time, not realizing how much time had passed, and finally stopped at the doll corner displayed in one corner.
It was full of various dolls, but the black tiger stood out.
The tiger doll with black and white paws was wearing a nice white outfit, and it looked just like Erno Etam.
“That Yogeo is Joa.”
After a long thought, I held a black tiger doll in my arms and held it out to him.
“Anything else?”
Erno Etam asked with a strange expression.
“…this?”
I said again, slightly lifting the doll.
“Only one? You can choose more. Don’t you get tired of only one?”
I shook my head.
Other things were clearly noticed, but not particularly so when asked if I wanted to have them.
I’ve always wanted to have one of these dolls, and I really like this one.
“Yogeo… Abba Dharma! This is Joa.”
When I smiled brightly while saying something that a father who plays a fool with a wide-eyed daughter would like, he was silent for a moment, looked at me, and then tilted his head.
“…okay?”
“yes.”
“Then there’s nothing I can do about it. My daughter doesn’t like anything other than that she resembles me.”
Erno Etam smiled lightly in a slightly raised tone, then took me in his arms and headed to the checkout counter.
“Welcome, guests! I will help you with the calculations.”
“Are you the owner?”
“yes? oh yes yes Are you buying this tiger doll?”
“Yes, and I hope they don’t sell more dolls like this one.”
He ‘recommended’ in a light voice mixed with laughter.
The owner trembled with goosebumps for no reason, then shook his head while seizing reason.
“yes? What’s that… This product was just put on display…”
Before the owner could finish his words, Erno Etam put down the money bag, which seemed heavy at first glance.
Erno Etam nodded his head arrogantly, and the hesitant owner sneakily checked the money bag and quietly closed the door and opened his mouth.
“I’ll get you off the shelf right away.”
he grinned.
“Oh, you don’t have to.”
The moment he snapped his fingers, the shelf where the tiger doll was was lit up with flames! Soared.
“Because I don’t like the fact that they exist.”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
“Boo fire!”
The flames disappeared just as people were about to run away screaming in confusion, just as a candle goes out.
All that was left was the remains of what had been a burned-out doll. And that’s exactly where the tiger doll was.
With brisk steps, he took me in one arm holding the doll and left the store.
“Now my daughter is the only one who owns a doll that looks like me.”
He said that as if he was very satisfied.
This crazy human…
“Go away… Father.”
Can I survive this psychopath…?
And that afternoon I got an account worth 10 million roasts.
Yes, people have to live patiently.
