Chapter 281 Ten million dollars teabag
Lith was done with the class upgrade and was now a C class adventurer. He was walking towards a hotel present in the Lenz Suburbs. It was at the outskirts of the suburbs and was cheap and affordable.
Lith had gotten a few rewards from the guild for making it to C class and doing their mission. They gave him one amethyst coin as well as a guild pass. This pass could be used to access their services which included a bar, spa, hotels, etc., present in various different places.
Lith hadn't used the token the Vice Guildmaster of Jingmei Guild had given him. It was because he didn't want to bring too much attention on him as of now. He was still just a mere Rank 3 and it was better to be cautious in his opinion.
The guild he visited this time in the main city was under construction and only the lobby and a few other areas on the ground floor were made. The rest of the building was under construction and from the looks of how it was shaped, Lith guessed that it would look like a fort of some sort.
Nothing special happened there and Lith was now on his way back. He had been moving without rest for two days now and he knew that if he continued this, his physical health would be impacted. He had to rest now; have a good eight to ten hours of sleep and rejuvenate.
Lith checked his phone to see how far the hotel was and realized it would take him a long time to reach there if he walked at such a moderate pace.
He browsed through his phone to look for transportation options and saw options for carriages, taxis, teleportation circles, and flying type magic beasts.
Shared carriages were the most cheap while flying type beasts were the most expensive. Lith thought on what type of transportation he should take by then soon remembered that he was given a teleportation token by Emilia which he could use to go anywhere in a continent.
He took the token out and inscribed the coordinates of the place his hotel was at via his spiritual power and vanished from his spot instantly.
Lith teleported out right in front of the gates of a rundown three storey hotel. The lobby looked okayish and not too bad to him and he walked inside to get a room for himself.
The process to get a room was fast and he paid one silver coin for a night. It wasn't too expensive, but in his opinion, it wasn't cheap either.
Resting on the soft mattress of the bed, Lith thought to himself, 'even at the outskirts of the suburbs, the cost is so much for one single night. I paid one silver coin, which would roughly amount to a hundred dollars from Earth. That's so much…'
Previously, Lith didn't keep track of the money he spent because he hardly spent money. It was only on food that he ever spent money on. He lived his whole life in the castle and everything was provided to him by his mother. He didn't know the cost of things but knew that they were definitely very expensive.
This one time, he saw the name of the tea brand on the teabag when he was making some tea for himself and out of curiosity, he searched it online and saw the price of a single teabag to be a whopping ten amethyst coins!
On Earth that would mean a million dollars!
How extravagant and wasteful, Lith thought to himself and asked the people in the castle to replace the expensive tea with cheaper options.
What Lith didn't know at that time was that it was provided for free to him since the owner of that brand was none other than the Royal Clan itself. It wasn't made public that the brand belongs to the Royal Clan and Lith thus didn't know about it from the internet and thought of the tea to be a waste and expensive.
But that was the only time he ever saw the price of a thing in the castle. He didn't know how much the other things cost and to not get a headache, he also didn't bother to see the prices.
Thus, for the most parts of his life, Lith had hardly ever spent money on anything. And now that he was earning, he realized just how expensive things were.
From the Kunlor Forest, he had gotten a few litres of honey from the killer bees but that was about it. He couldn't capture the queen bee and thus his income, after paying for the hotel room, was one gold and four silver coins.
That much amount was made from selling the honey but if taken into account the prize he got from the guild, his current income was one amethyst coin, one gold coin, and four silver coins.
That amounted to $1,010,400 from Earth.
It was a lot of money considering the fact that the majority of the population in Espat only earn around two to five gold coins a month. This amounted to $20,000 to $50,000 but considering how everything was expensive, earning this much amount meant being borderline middle-class.
Everything was expensive in major cities like Lenz City and even if one lived in the outskirts, to survive, they would need at least two or three gold coins a month. Thankfully, there was a concept of minimum wage and thus many didn't sleep hungry in such major cities.
Thinking of it as a necessity, Lith let go of the thought of spending one silver coin on a hotel room and slept in a relaxed manner.
The next day.
Lith woke up after sleeping for twelve hours straight and felt refreshed and rejuvenated.
He got up from the bed and stretched his body and said with a light chuckle, "even though I am a vampire now, I still need to sleep at night to rest and recover."
He was about to go to the washroom to freshen up when his phone's notification chimed. He checked it and saw that there was an email from the Nine Roses Hotel.
He opened it and saw it to be an advertisement of the hotel and it was giving him offers and discounts but when he read in between the lines carefully, he saw that it was alerting him of a mission.
Lith closed the email app and opened the darknet browser on his phone and logged into his account.
He saw a new assassination mission in there and it seemed a bit important as well as would help him in raising his rank as an assassin.
Lith was a gold card holder and it was only natural that the organization would hand out the mission to him first than the rest.
Lith took a look at the mission and it was about…
