The third contract Tina produced finally turned out to be the "real" one. As Aster expected, it was packed with enough legal jargon to make his head spin. Still, he carefully read through each line, doing his best to decipher its contents.
"So, basically, I just need to become a Zirroth Family-affiliated adventurer?" he asked, summarizing the bulk of it.
That was the gist. The contract came with some strict conditions, the most notable being that their party would have to offer 10% of their loot to the Zirroth Family until they repaid 10 trillion Tels—the estimated cost of the bracelet-car.
The number sounded astronomical, but Aster wasn't overly concerned. After all, they had already earned 1 trillion Tels in a single night before. Replicating such a windfall might not be easy, but knowing it was possible gave him confidence that they wouldn't be in debt forever.
