Gregory Tote adjusted his monocle and turned back to the desk, retrieving a Magic Contract from the drawer and handing it to Noland Lee using [Mage's Hand].

"This is the contract of the Wealth Creation Society; please take it back and read it carefully," he said.

The smile on Gregory Tote's face assumed an inexplicable meaning:

"The Wealth Creation Society is also known as the Baldur's Gate Merchant Alliance. Since it's an alliance, there's a distinction between the members and non-members. Joining the Wealth Creation Society means becoming a member of the Alliance and being protected by its rules. However, if you don't join, you cannot enjoy the treatment of an alliance member. If you are to do business in Baldur's Gate in the future, you must be particularly mindful of this point. This is a friendly reminder."

Local bullies looking for protection money? ... Holding the contract rolled into a cylinder, Noland Lee's eyes narrowed slightly.
