The Gamer's Gambit In Another World

Lucas, a clever trickster from Earth, found himself suddenly in a world strikingly similar to a video game he had once played. Immediately upon his arrival, he faced imminent danger as someone pointed a gun at him. The new world he found himself in was dominated by the extraordinary individuals who possessed many supernatural powers unseen in Lucas's previous life. What scared Lucas the most was the immediate threat to his life and his lack of any real power in this unfamiliar world. However, he quickly relied on his quick thinking and skills as a trickster to craft a lie. He claimed to be a high-level supervisor sent by the leaders of the Argent Empire. Using his extensive knowledge of the game, Lucas convincingly backed up his claim, persuading the agent pointing the gun at him to accept his fabricated identity. This lie not only saved his life but also provided him with a new role within the secret intelligence group as an inspector. Assuming this role, Lucas conducted himself in ways no upright official would. He used his game knowledge to deceive others, build his own power base through kidnapping, stealing, and engaging in other nefarious activities. His cunning and resourcefulness allowed him to execute his plans with goal of minimum risk and maximum rewards. Unbeknownst to him, Lucas was also part of a larger scheme. His actions had consequences that extended beyond his immediate goals and survival. How will his maneuvers impact his fate in this new world? Read to discover the consequences of Lucas's daring gambit in "Gamer's Gambit In Another World."

Chapter 78: Aftermath

One Billion Imperial Marks!

Who would have thought that the City Hall, which usually skimped on bounties, would bleed so much this time?

You must understand, to prevent high bounties from attracting more troublesome characters and to avoid criminals from comparing themselves, the official bounties were always very conservative.

Initially, the bounty for Ela was only two million Imperial Marks, just as a token. It was only after Lucas stirred up a City Hall meeting that the bounty was raised to one hundred million.

Now, they directly multiplied it by ten to one billion Imperial Marks. This is bound to attract bounty hunters from all over the world to Storm City! Many bounty hunters are extremely vicious characters.

It's like they are burning their bridges, disregarding city safety to capture the elf Ela.

Sigh...
