"After excluding those additional factors, Jarilo's final total debt was... this much." After tapping on the summoned screen for a moment, Topa calculated the final debt figure.

Topa moved the screen directly in front of Chen Luo.

"Hmm... it did look like quite a bit less, but it was still an astronomical figure." Chen Luo stroked his chin.

"Would you like me to help you contact Miss Asta?" Topa asked thoughtfully.

"Hmm, did you think the repayment method I mentioned meant I was going to cling to Asta's thigh and beg her to help me pay off the debt?"

"Uh, not that exaggerated." Topa awkwardly shook her head.

All right, that had indeed been what Topa initially thought, but after seeing how powerful Chen Luo was, she felt that Miss Asta definitely would not lose out on such an investment.

After all, he was a mortal capable of injuring an Aeon with a single strike and gravely wounding one.

Wasn't that far stronger than any Emissary?

In any case, someone like him would never lack money.

"Your suggestion was rather tempting. Being kept by a rich woman probably felt pretty nice... unfortunately, the one keeping me this time wasn't some beautiful girl, but a heartless robot." Chen Luo sighed.

"You mean..." Topa frowned.

Topa had some trouble understanding Chen Luo's words.

"Although these numbers are so large I don't even know how to read them, and I don't have that much money, I've decided to repay the debt at double the amount so I won't feel burdened about it. After all, while you didn't leave behind instructions for using the automatons, you did leave the automatons themselves. And from a fair and impartial perspective, the help you gave Jarilo was extremely important," Chen Luo said.

"Repay the debt twice over?"
