Treasure All Over (Part 1)

Everyone was listening carefully, especially Aini. He had tagged along because he wanted to learn through experience. He believed that he would definitely expand the scale of their hunting when he had a ship of his own in the future.

Although Irene had gotten first place the other day and pissed Sika off, she was, after all, a disciple of a prominent clan and understood the proprieties. She had signed a magic contract with Saleen, so in business, they had to advance and retreat together. Through hunting alone, she would be able to recover her initial wealth. Plus, Saleen had promised to give her a ship so she would not need to follow after him and get it by begging. Eventually, she would be able to build her own house and breakaway from her clan.

The four major clans were taken care by the imperial household and hence they were able to live fairly well-off. Now that she had to rely on Saleen and Viscountess Lex, it was a gamble, but it would be worth the bet.
