Sid's enthusiasm also lasted only three minutes; after digging for a while and not seeing any gold coins, he grew impatient.
"Sino, where are the gold coins you mentioned?"
"I just thought there might be gold coins, I wasn't 100% sure!"
Hearing this, Sid instantly lost the motivation to continue digging.
He flew into the sky and left.
No sooner had Sid left than Delta dug up something strange.
"Boss, Delta found a treasure!"
What was dug up was just an ordinary box.
It had a strange secret lock.
"Delta, send this thing to Mitsugoshi Company! Let Eta see if she can open it!"
"Understood!"
Delta hugged the box and ran towards Mitsugoshi Company.
After Yuetan left Great United Company, the entire Great United Company instantly collapsed, with merchants frantically moving valuable items.
Alice also received the news and sent people to every bank of Great United Company.
She herself went to search for Kada's whereabouts.
After some investigation, it was discovered that there wasn't a single gold coin in the banks of Great United Company.
Kada, the ostensible leader of Great United Company, had also been killed.
Now, citizens could only bear the burden themselves.
After many people learned this news, they took Mitsugoshi Company's banknotes, wanting to exchange them for money at Mitsugoshi Company.
As soon as they entered, they saw glittering gold coins, piled up like mountains.
Many people were also exchanging gold coins at the counter.
Many people gave up the idea of exchanging gold coins.
Mitsugoshi Company has always pursued high-quality service.
Everything was done quite perfectly, and a Mitsugoshi Company like this shouldn't deceive them, nor did it need to deceive them.
The mountain of gold coins in the hall was the best proof.
Only a few people exchanged gold coins; most did not.
Mitsugoshi Company easily weathered this counterfeit currency storm... Somewhere in Midgar, Zeta appeared beside Viscount Olba.
"Does Lady Zeta have any instructions for me?"
"I want you to help me investigate someone! Petos!"
"If you have any news of him, you must tell me. Consider it a favor I owe you; I'll do anything!"
(Zeta's words were a test; she didn't completely trust the person in front of her. The other party was a member of The Order, and if he could betray The Order, he could certainly betray Shadow Garden. If the other party showed even a hint of a flaw, Zeta would kill him.)
"Lady Zeta exaggerates; this is my duty. If I find anything, I will inform you immediately!"
"Thank you!"
Zeta left.
Petos was Zeta's enemy, and Zeta had been searching for Petos all these years.
The other party also knew Zeta was looking for him and had largely kept his whereabouts hidden.
The strength of Shadow Garden was growing, and at the Round Table Conference, someone had already suggested that The Order should unite and fully resist Shadow Garden.
But only a handful of people agreed.
Everyone was selfish and often tripped up their own people.
To expect these people to work together against Shadow Garden was completely impossible.
The person who proposed uniting against Shadow Garden was the Ninth Seat, Demon Sword Superman Mordred.
Originally, his plan was about to succeed, but Shadow Garden's people suddenly entered and disrupted it.
His plan was completely thwarted.
A large number of his pawns all died, and his other subordinates were useless.
He was now in a difficult situation, wanting to implement his plan, but he simply didn't have the conditions.
Mordred was a very cowardly fellow; without assistance from others, he would never dare to confront Shadow Garden alone.
He could only propose it at the Round Table Conference.
The result was failure.
"No, everything is ready, just one last step. As long as the gate to the Demon World can be opened, Demon Lord Ranalok can be released, and then, with the device I've prepared, he will be under my control!"
"No, I must find a way to activate this plan. If Shadow Garden thoroughly studies that ring over time, everything will be too late!"
After Mordred left the Round Table Conference, Viscount Olba blocked his path.
Mordred unhesitatingly slashed at him with a sword.
But Viscount Olba dodged it.
"I mean no harm, Lord Mordred!"
"I am very interested in your idea of eliminating Shadow Garden; I can help you!"
"Hmph, you're from Fenrir's faction, aren't you! He hasn't even offered to help me, what right do you have to act on your own initiative!"
"Lord Fenrir has suffered some setbacks recently, and the time for me to become a Knight of the Round Table might be extended indefinitely. If I want to become a Knight of the Round Table, relying solely on Lord Fenrir is not enough!"
"Oh? Aren't you afraid I'll tell Fenrir what you said?"
"I believe you wouldn't do that!" Viscount Olba said.
"Interesting, you are quite interesting! You want to become a Knight of the Round Table, right! I agree!"
"As long as you help me get Princess Rose of Oriana Kingdom to wear the ring passed down through her royal family for generations! I will make you a Knight of the Round Table!"
"No problem!"
The two then engaged in a series of secret talks and settled on a plan.
Sid was currently traveling the world. He arrived in Oriana Kingdom, wanting to see what this artistic kingdom was like.
He casually found a hotel to stay in. It turned out the hotel owner was a girl Shadow had accidentally saved in Lawless City.
The other party had escaped from Lawless City during that turmoil.
From then on, she shed her identity as a prostitute.
She became a diligent service industry worker.
She opened a small hotel, providing accommodation and food for passersby.
Business was average, but it ensured she could make ends meet.
In the Oriana Royal Palace, Princess Rose was diligently practicing her sword.
Her opponent was Number 559.
Number 559's every attack was incredibly sharp, completely as if she wanted to kill Princess Rose.
She couldn't accept Princess Rose, who had received Sino's power, being so weak.
So weak that she defiled that adult's power.
However, under Number 559's repeated murderous attacks, Princess Rose's growth rate also accelerated.
Her strength improved rapidly.
This wasn't the first time the two had sparred; Number 559 always used this attack method.
She called it 'getting closer to actual combat.'
Princess Rose had already grown accustomed to it.
She didn't know why that purple-haired girl disliked her so much. Every time, she wanted to use kindness to change Number 559's perception of her.
But it was completely useless; Number 559 often called Princess Rose a good-for-nothing, saying she was useless, had no purpose, and couldn't even protect her own family.
Therefore, Princess Rose worked harder each day, constantly striving to become stronger.
