"What are you planning to do now?" Saphandra asked while she ate a bit of food on the tavern floor.
"I don't know," Ning said. "Maybe get myself re-ranked in the summoning circle?"
"That seems unnecessary since you already have all the money you'll ever need," she said.
Ning smiled. "If I have everything I'll ever need, then I'll never have anything to look forward to," he said. "Sometimes, it's better to create goals for yourself, even if they are useless goals."
"Do you have anything to look forward to?" Saphandra asked with an inquisitive look. She really wanted to know.
Ning smiled. "There are a hundred billion star systems in each of the thousands of billions of galaxies in just this one universe. And I am capable of going through infinite universes. Do you really need me to tell you what I have to look forward to?" he asked.
"Dammit, a simple 'yes' would have sufficed. No need to show off," Saphandra said with a pout.
