"I'm broke" Zephyrus realized the harsh reality. As a fairy she didn't really see any importance for currency and they always had what they needed at Weltenbaum der feen so mostly fairies saw no need to buy resources outside.
She never thought a day would come where she would need money. She sighed knowing she would need a job if she wanted to sustain herself. Zephyrus still needs to reenact her revenge against Arm but she wouldn't be able to do that if she doesn't even have money for lodgings and food.
"Urgh How can I obtain some money" Zephyrus was at her last straw when looking through the populated streets saw a holographic display with the text "--KURAIZAL RIKAI : 4,600,000 credits if caught alive–"
"Wait- I could be a bounty hunter" Zephyrus, had a eureka moment and ran across to the nearest broker she could find. She entered a bar called Lupin inside where there were only a handful of customers remaining and ordered a cocktail. The elderly bartender lazily mixed her drink before returning his attention to his own glass.
Taking a deep breath, Zephyrus finally spoke up. "I'm looking for a job suitable for a fighter." Zephyrus already spent a week in the city and was recommended to this bar by someone she may have robbed.
The elderly bartender hesitated before tapping his glass four times in silence in response to Zephyrus's request for work suitable for a fighter.
Suddenly, the space behind the bar opened up and a person emerged, yawning loudly.
"Ha~. It's after hours, and I'm ready to pass out. What's your deal?" said the sharp-looking woman with wet hair, eyeing Zephyrus.
The elderly bartender standing next to him spoke up for the first time. "She's a fighter."
"A fighter huh? Don't look like one but I won't judge" the woman said examining Zephyrus under the bar's dim lightning.Without any response from Zephyrus, she convinced herself and sat across the bar. "But whatevs, it's all good. We can always use more of 'em. Name's Jenny, what's yours?"
"Zephyrus"
"Okay, Zephyrus. It's not a big secret that our bar arranges various things. Are you looking for a job that a fighter can do?" Jess asked.
"Yes, I am," Zephyrus replied. Hearing Zephyrus' answer, Jess handed Zephyrus a job.
"The name of your target is Taylor Evans. He's from Scavenger and is currently accused of attempting to steal security equipment from Achilles Corporation's port in District 31 three days ago."
"Achilles corp?" Zephyrus recognized that name- when she was scouring for information about Arm there were rumors about the Achilles corp collaborating with the organization but sadly there is no evidence for her to verify. "So what do I do" she asked Jess
"All you gotta do is dispose of him, Achilles couldn't be bothered to pursue him and left it to us" Jess explained "The reward is 400,000 credits"
"I see" Zephyrus replied looking disinterested while screaming inside her head 'WHAT THE FUCK 400,000 CREDITS FOR ONE MAN"
"So what do you say- Are you ready to take the risk?" Jess asked
"Risk? I'm afraid this is not risky for the likes of me" Zephyrus smirked feeling that she was having her aesthetic main character moment.
