《The King of Avarice》Chapter 10: Finished but Beggining
Advertisement
When I finally reach the window after waiting in the line I reach another female, this time behind the counter. I read her name tag earlier in line she is named Charlotte.
She greets me first.
“Hello Nicholas Flamel, sorry for the wait. What can I help you with today?”
That surprised me, did she know my name was Nicholas, Nicholas Flamel, because i'm a member now or because she could see my name.
If it's the latter I will need to learn how to do that as well, so far I have only been guessing who was a player or not.
I look at her a bit better, she has dirty blond hair, furry hands, cat ears, and looking lower down a tail. That’s a surprise first neko i have seen so far. Her face seemed like she was staring me down or simply doing her job, hard to tell.
I snap out of my thoughts and answer her, there was no one behind me so I wasn't holding up the line which could have been bad.
“Yes you can help me, you see Aurora said I would need to talk to you to register my business?”
She talks professionally and softly, it seems like she’s been here awhile.
“That's one of the reasons i'm here for, what type of business and level is it?”
It seems she isn't one for small talk while working, that's different from Jeremy.
“It is a tier 2 set 1 cup game, created just a bit ago, I didn't realize I had to register such a small thing. The guard approached me and brought me here.”
She didn't seem that changed when I told her the info, i guess she doesn't care that much or already was aware of it.
“We take things rather serious here so it would be obvious for him to bring you here.”

She gives a short reply then starts scribbling and clicking things, I guess the clicking was on her interface confirming npcs do have a stat menu.
“A Tier 2 set 1 is surprising for a first time business but not unheard of, but it does cost more to register, normally you register before you create it but it's fine. The cost will be 1 gold Rin and a tax of 5 gold Rin every month, if you grow or decline the tax will change automatically so don't worry about coming back here every time, although I wouldn't mind it.”
Wow thats kind of expensive, but I wont bargain or change it for now.
Also I wonder why she wants me back I didn't use friendly smile and my charisma is still the same, it could be for a different reason though. It could also be nothing, I can't be sure.
“Here you go, I will try to pop in from time to time.”
I hand her the coins and use friendly smile.
“Thank you, click the accept and you may be on your way.”
You have been offered to register your business with the merchant faction.You will need to pay 5 gold rin as tax every month. You must include a name for the company as well as the owner's name.
Company name:_____ Owner name:_____
Accept | Decline
I input the name, Three Cups One Winner, of course a throwback of my casino in the real world. And owner’s name, which is me, Nicholas Flamel. Once I was done putting the info down I click the Accept button.
Congratulations you have Registered the company: Three Cups One Winner. It is Tier 2 set 1. With the Merchant Faction.
I thank charlotte one more time and start leaving the counter, half way down the hall i get another message.

User, you have created a world first. Your company: Three Cups One Winner- is the first gambling creation that has been registered with a notable faction.
There is a few things you must agree or decline.

Accept | Decline
Accept | Decline
Accept | Decline
Yes | No
My god, I have just done a world changing event. I of course accept the first two, it will create a lot of traffic and advertisements for my business. The last one is much harder to accept do I want people to see how I look? Should I create a shadow owner, if so I will need to do it quickly. If not that then what?
Man I will have to work fast, at this point in time I shouldn't include my name or my image I will advertise its name. I will need to get my associates ready as fast as possible, this is world changing.
I will contact them once I return back to my booth, I guess it’s time to put money into this. I must keep my throne.
I almost run past aurora saying a quick thank you and goodbye.
As I exit I look around quickly for Jim, once I find him I tell him i’m done and we head back to my booth i try to walk a little faster but not so fast it looks suspicious.
We enter the central and head towards my booth I speak quickly with Jim and the other fellow I meet earlier say my goodbye’s too them with an agreement to do a game later.
I pick up my booth and rush to the nearest ally, I have a lot of work ahead of me.

While in the recovery ward, an advertisement recommended vr as a place he'd still be able to sing. Excited he had the doctors make the call and put him in.

It was only afterwards he realised he'd ended up as a monster. How does one balance the pursuit of fame and hiding ones actions? Find out in "A taste for the finer things" This is based off an idea off the five minute synopsis I wrote in the RoyalRoadLegends Discord Cover generously provided by Vsolon https://royalroadl.com/fiction/18430/a-world-beyond

Author's Rant
Just a disclaimer, this is not and never will be a story. I just, noticed I have a bad habit of wanting to rant in my author's notes, and have decided that, instead of accidentally doubling the length of each chapter with the author's note alone, I will shove those long-ass rants here. It might contain spoilers for my stories, as I usually wind up ranting about different parts I'm writing. So, if you actually enjoy my rants...well, firstly, what is wrong with you? Secondly, welcome! Time to figure out what tags to stick on this. Also, as of the second chapter, I have decided to shove some of my story ideas here. So if you enjoy half-baked, unfinished stories, then I got those too. I think that adds that short story tag?
