Chapter 44, The Army is at the Gates_1

Driven by sheer greed, the once united robbery team was now on the brink of breaking apart.

"Dividing the spoils" has always been the trickiest problem in the human world. If this problem isn't handled well, a robbery team, united by mutual gain, is immediately at risk of falling apart.

Looking at the list of supplies in his hands, Knight Charles felt a headache coming on. Theoretically, the cash and the value of the supplies added up to a total of around 12,000 gold coins, but that is only if they could be liquidated.

If it were only a matter of difficult liquidation, that would have been it. But the key issue is that, although the gains were substantial, the number of people to be paid out was even larger.

Among the Fifth Army, 73 nobles in total were involved in the looting, and per capita, it resulted in less than two thousand gold coins.

For some knights who are financially struggling, it was not an insignificant sum, as it at least brought them back to even.
