Payout
"Here is your money."
Compared to the previous money cards that I received back after the auction at the Bakari house, the one that Venna was passing to me now was slightly diffrent.
Instead of being made with some rare metals enhanced with runes responsible for keeping count of the number of coins stored inside, it looked like a blueish crystal cut down to look just like a credit card from the earth.
As soon as I dropped a droplet of blood on the top of it, it suddenly vibrated and its colours started to change. Like if the blue mist that shrouded its insides lost its source, turning the crystal to be completely transparent. Now, it looked just like a flat piece of a diamond!
"I'm sorry for my rashness back then. I hope you will understand my motives behind it."
Lowering her head a bit, Venna suddenly changed the atmosphere from lighthearted celebration to a tense one. I didn't even need a second to comprehend what she was speaking about.
