Ves did not feel relieved when Orion Leeds officially determined that Ves had won the tier 3 Destroyer spear.
He felt as if he had put a huge burden on himself.
Neither he nor the Larkinson Clan had a whopping 5800 kilograms of phasewater stored in their vaults!
Furthermore, they did not possess any freely available cash that was equivalent to the value of so much phasewater!
Though Ves could heavily go into debt in order to finance this transaction, doing so came with a lot of other consequences.
Not only would he become beholden to the institution that loaned him the money, but he would also have to pay huge sums on interest payments until he managed to pay off the entire loan!
Even if Ves was confident that he could continue to rely on his routine mech design activities to slowly earn enough money to cover this debt, he would rather get rid of it sooner rather than later.
