"Do you want to go say hello to Chloe?"
"Go say hello to the owner of Weapon Miao Miao House."
"???"
Lance took the Dragon Whelp and headed towards [Weapon Miao Miao House]. Upon entering the store, his eyes were greeted with all sorts of weapons. The designs were standard without any particular highlights, and the quality was average.
In the kingdoms of the Human World, such weapons might still sell a bit, but in the Alchemical City... these weapons' designs were too old-fashioned and lacked personality.
"Chloe, I'm planning to close down for good. Here is your salary for this month, as well as for next month. I'm planning to go learn from the Dwarf Tribe for a few years. If you're still in the Alchemical City a few years from now when I've completed my studies, I'll rehire you then.
I owe you a lot during this time. If it wasn't for you personally introducing the weapons to customers, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to pay your wages."
