Login with GoogleChapter 58: My Goodness, She Truly Is A Genius at Making Money!
Although the simulator didn't explicitly state how much Loria spent on purchasing the Magic Crystal Mine, judging from her reaction in the simulation, it was definitely not a small amount.
"Oh my goodness, this is becoming unbearable!"
Lady Knight's face turned half green, greener than the guildmaster's head.
Angry?
What's the use of getting angry anyway?
Getting angry will only ruin the good impression the Cat-Eared Lolita has of her, which means all the money she spent on the Magic Crystal Mine would be as good as wasted.
Oh no!
Loria's heart was bleeding.
If she were to simply throw away the Cat-Eared Lolita, she would feel even more reluctant.
In doing so, not only did she lose a large sum of money, but she also unwittingly presented the Hidden Leader's people with an unexpected gift.
"For now, the only plan is to grit my teeth and persevere!"
[You constantly reminded yourself that you were raising a daughter. When she mischievously spent a lot of money, what she needed was not scolding, but patient guidance. You wanted to teach her a valuable lesson so that she wouldn't make the same mistake again in the future.]
"Yes, having a 53-years-old daughter at the age of sixteen is a very normal thing!"
It has to be said, this brainwashing method turned out to be quite effective.
After taking a few sips of water, Loria gradually started to calm down.
She continued to watch the simulated content.
[You started comforting the saddened cat-eared Loli, telling her to be like you, not indulging in desires, but to learn self-control and the art of moderation.]
[You didn't know if she had truly listened, but at least she quieted down for now.]
[You tried to build a closer bond with her, starting by giving her the name Doris, and then playing games together.]
[During the game, Doris accidentally hit you in the waist with a punch, causing it to bend. You had to pay 80 Oder coins for the medical treatment.]
Loria, "!"
Don't get angry, don't get angry, being scratched and scratched by your daughter is a common occurrence.
And it's just 80 Oder coins, nothing serious, it's not even her one-day salary yet.
[When you went back to Guildmaster Adeline's house, you specially bought a parenting book. You studied the parenting book all evening.]
[Day 4: In the morning, Guildmaster Adeline woke you up and kindly tidied your room for you.]
[While sneaking home during your lunch break, you were surprised to find that Doris had undergone a transformation. Her belly had returned to normal, and her endurance attribute had significantly improved, rising from 31 points to 35 points.]
"Can eating magic crystals make you stronger?"
Loria was greatly astonished.
You see, currently, Loria's endurance is only 37 points, while Doris gained 4 endurance points just by eating a meal from the Magic Crystal Mine.
If she eats a little more...
"Then wouldn't she become a super-powered, strong, enduring, and intelligent little girl?"
At 53 years old, being strong, enduring, and intelligent isn't too extraordinary, right?
No.
The key to the problem doesn't lie here.
The key is that as long as she is willing to dedicate herself, Doris will be trained into a cow warrior who can fight, resist, and heal!
"When it's time to fight with someone, she stands in front, and me... I... um?"
Loria suddenly froze in place.
Doris single-handedly took on the roles of a warrior, a shield bearer, and a healer, but why would this knight, who only had a strong body and no other advantages, be needed?
"Do logistics work? Applaud and cheer? Enjoy the show?"
Wait a moment.
Loria's eyes lit up.
She suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity to break free from herself.
Hasn't her lifelong dream been to make a lot of money while lying down?
Now, the opportunity was right in front of her eyes.
Without a doubt, Doris was an incredibly advanced magical puppet, after all, she could evolve.
Although Loria didn't know what Doris' evolution limit was, even if she was just a D-level adventurer, it would be sufficient. If she could level up to C-level or even B-level, that would be a game-changer.
"What I need to do is feed Doris with Magic Crystal Mine to help her continue to grow, and at the same time, increase her affection towards me so that she will obediently listen to me."
Once Doris' strength has reached a certain level and her affection towards me has also increased, I can send her out to work.
Of course, this job was no ordinary job. How much money could one earn in a day from an ordinary job?
Loria thought about having Doris become an adventurer.
Do not underestimate adventurers. Although low-level adventurers have a tough life, high-level adventurers who consistently embark on adventures can all earn a lot of money.
When that time came, she would send Doris out every day to fight monsters and complete quests, while she only needed to lie at home and count money.
Isn't this much faster than going to Miss Plump Sheep's place to withdraw money?
"I am truly a genius at making money!"
Now, Loria only had two problems in front of her.
Firstly.
She couldn't let Doris be taken away by the mysterious force behind the scenes. And after this turmoil, just in case, she would also change Doris' appearance.
Secondly.
Before sending Doris out to work, she had to invest a large sum of money in her. However, there was a chance that this money would go to waste.
"Engaging in investments, it involves both gains and losses. If one accidentally goes bankrupt, they could resort to seducing wealthy women. And if seducing wealthy women doesn't work, becoming a queen in the adult entertainment industry could also be considered as a backup plan."
"If I succeed, I will be an independent woman who no longer has to worry about others' opinions!"
Charge! There's no better time to charge than now!
What a wicked mastermind behind the scenes, plotting to assassinate me in secret, attempting to destroy Creek Town. But now, they have also hindered my path to prosperity. You must die!
Loria felt relieved, as she too had thought of this money-making method in the simulation.
[You continued to make efforts to get closer to Doris, promising to bring her something delicious tomorrow. She was overjoyed and happily rubbed her ear against your shoulder.]
[You continued to ask her why she had run from Mist Forest Mining to Creek Town, and if she knew that a group of people were chasing after her.]
[Doris said she used to work in the mines, and accidentally ate a strange piece of ore. After eating it, she became extremely hungry, and kept eating. Whenever she was full, she would go into a deep sleep, and upon awakening, she would continue to eat, until one day, there was an explosion in the mine.]
"What a lazy pig, lazier than me?"
[After the explosion, she stumbled out of the mine in a daze. Somehow, her previously dull mind gained a bit of clarity, and the binding contract for mining vanished. With that, she kept running, and eventually arrived at Creek Town.]
Loria furrowed her brow slightly.
So, was all the change because of the strange mineral that Doris ate?
She was completely ignorant about magic, alchemy, and whatnot, so she could only rely on guesswork.
In any case, the most pressing matter at hand was to figure out a way to earn money.
The money she had in her hands was definitely not enough to nurture Doris into a perfect state.
But how could she earn money quickly?
When the path of becoming a geisha had been blocked, considering her current reputation, the bawdyhouses in Creek Town surely dared not accept her.
And Creek Town is too small, the geishas here cannot earn much money.
As for Claren City, it was an even less desirable place to go. Going there now would be like throwing away a valuable possession.
"But if I don't become a geisha, I won't have any other skills to earn a living, right?"
[Day 5: You bought a large pile of magic crystals, but Doris ate them all in one sitting. Determined to earn money, you wracked your brain but couldn't think of any ways to make money. Your only option was to go and borrow money from Miss Plump Sheep for now.]
[Miss Plump Sheep generously lent you a large sum of money. You said it was an investment for the future, promising to repay even more in the future. You jokingly mentioned that if you couldn't repay, you would offer compensation in the form of meat. Miss Plump Sheep blushed and shyly admitted that she was not a lesiban.]
[Day 6: A research team dispatched from Claren City arrives in Creek Town. You didn't pay much attention and continued to think of ways to make money.]
[As evening draws near, a brilliant idea strikes you. Though you can't become a geisha in Creek Town, you can join the Monster Girls Tribe. You vaguely recall that the monster girls outside Creek Town have some wealth.]
[You decided to purposely let the monster girls catch you. Once they were all exhausted from chasing you, you would sneak away with all of their money. Think of it as the entrance fee they paid.]
[You felt that experiencing such humiliation, those prideful monster girls wouldn't dare to spread the word. This way, you could continue to search for other monster girls to make money, and you also dealt a heavy blow to the Monster Girls Tribe through this method, disrupting the plans of the hidden manipulators.]
"?"
Wow!
Loria exclaimed, "Invincible!"
In this way, wouldn't it be both possible to earn a lot of money and to develop endurance?
We're taking off now!
