major mercenary groups as well as
several smaller ones he calculated
silently in his mind if the total Ransom
were to be the sum of 90% of each
person's wealth according to claud's
Method All ransoms would fall upon the
free swords this was nothing short of
astronomical Tigers felt a bitter taste
in her mouth the total Ransom would
likely surpass 10 million divided among
the 11 of them each would bear nearly a
million in death such a staggering some
could not be raised even if they were
sold into slavery helplessly shaking his
head he realized that even if he agreed
to these terms the headquarters of the
free swords would certainly not acquas
there was no way they would pay 10
million to Ransom just 11 individuals
Tigress looked towards Sue jeene with a
desperate expression in her eyes s
Eugene cleared his throat attempting to
extricate tigers from her predicament
Lord Claude based on your calculations
the compensation amount May exceed 10
million such a figure is unacceptable
for both the group and the individual
upon hearing this Claude began to
explain languidly your highness you may
not yet fully grasp the rules of our
Dark Star Dragon City here there exists
a strict decree debts do not disappear
with death anyone who owes us a debt
even if they die must repay it to us
this rule was established by the queen
herself you wouldn't he wish for me to
violate it would you is there truly such
a rule Sue jyn's eyelids twitched
slightly his heart filled with
astonishment he had long known of the
queen of the Dark Star dragons avarest
but he had not anticipated her
insatiable thirst for wealth dead do not
disappear with death he murmured his
brow furrowing clearly perplexed by this
regulation indeed your highness Claude
continued his tone tinged with a hint of
helplessness our Dark Star Dragon City
is vast and prosperous necessitating
substantial expenditures for daily
operations especially with the support
of the eight princes now that you have
joined us as well we must sustain the
livelihoods of so many individuals
however we do not possess fixed
Industries our only sources of income
are slave trading and fines he paused
then continued this time the slave
dungeon has suffered severe damage and
the repair cost will be significant if
we were to wave the fines we would truly
be unable to sustain our livelihoods as
Claude spoke he displayed a stack of
documents to suene his expression one of
deep sorrow utterly devoid of pretense
as Eugene listened his mouth Agape
momentarily at a loss for words he could
hardly believe that the illustrious Dark
Star Dragon City would find itself in
such Dire Straits he silently mused why
does this Dark Star drag City give me
the impression of being on the verge of
bankruptcy glancing at tigis beside him
and then at claw before him suene found
himself in a dilemma he pondered for a
moment before deciding to First seek
Clarity on the situation before making
further plans please calculate a
specific figure for me he said in a firm
tone yes your highness CLA bowed in
acquiescence and swiftly retrieved a
stack of documents from his robes
beginning to calculate earnestly dos
Eugene curious leaned closer his gaze
falling upon the materials scrutinizing
them closely the documents meticulously
detailed the financial statuses of
various mercenaries including their
liquid assets savings and fixed
properties each item clearly laid out
chapter 230 I will repay as Sue jeene
peruse the documents he couldn't help
but feel a twinge of surprise within
this Hefty stack of papers he
unexpectedly Found Records of his own as
well as those of Tigress and chileen the
cut off date for the data was
unmistakably the day they entered
Darkstar Dragon City had they already
been under scrutiny at that time suene
