Green Lake District, Jade Sea Country, Ocean King Prefecture.
"Stupid! How could my brother be this stupid?" Walking amongst the cobbled road of the Green Lake District was a young woman, who was angrily muttering to herself.
This woman was wearing clothes that hid her body and face, although the way that she talked right now is enough to show how angry she is.
Bystanders who saw her all moved out of her way, for fears of making her angry at them.
The woman seemed to not notice any of this as she continued on muttering to herself.
"Argh! I always told my brother that the Time of everyone in this world is limited! Even if my brother has already reached Nascent Soul Stage, his Time will still be commodified too!" The woman then spat at the side of the road as her breathing turned laboorous. "I already told my brother that his own Time is important, and yet he still used his Time to buy expensive flowers? What a f**king idiot!"
The woman suddenly stopped walking, as she found herself right in front of her destination.
"…"
She found herself facing a tower which loomed above her.
The tower seemed to be out of touch in this place, with all the metallic and ceramic parts that clung to it. On top of the tower, a massive plaque could be seen, sporting three words written in bold letters.
She looked at this plaque directly, as she tried to confirm that she is indeed at the right place.
Her eyes narrowed as she read the words engraved on the plaque. A second later, and she let out a scoff as she walked towards the tower.
"United Bank of TimeMasters. What a deplorable name." The woman muttered to herself as she entered the tower.
"Woosh~" At the moment that the woman entered, she found herself facing a masked woman wearing a smiley mask.
THe masked woman was wearing formal clothes, which coupled with her mask, made her look both classic and creepy.
The woman tried to ignore the chills that she felt from the masked woman as she attempted to go past her.
"…" To the woman's displeasure, she found herself unable to move on.
"You…"
Right now, the creepy masked woman was blocking her path, making it hard for the woman to go in.
Seeing this blatant attempt to stop her from going in, the woman could only growl at the masked woman.
"Move out of the way." The woman said as she glared at the masked woman "I need to talk about something!"
"Good morning Miss Elise Thompson. What business are you here to talk about?" The masked woman said as she gave the woman, whose name was Elise, a light bow.
"Why are you asking me that? I want to talk to the manager directly!" Elise said as she crossed her arms. "You are just a receptionist here. Why are you even stopping me from going in?"
In response to Elise's question, the masked woman only tilted her head as she said,
"Well Miss Elise, we just received a notification earlier that your brother made a transaction with our bank yesterday. The transaction that he made… can be said to be of high importance to the bank. We cannot allow anyone to derail it, even your brother's relatives."
"You don't want anyone to derail it? Are you f**king kidding me?" Elise shouted in rage as she grabbed the masked woman's shoulders. She tightened her grip as she shook the masked woman.
"Your stupid bank forced my brother to pawn 1,200 Years of his Time! Do you think I will just allow that to continue?" Elise said as she continued shaking the masked woman. "My brother just broke through the Nascent Soul Stage, for god's sake! He could have lived for much longer, yet he wasted all that by pawning 1,200 Years of his Time!"
"I don't see what could be your problem with that, Miss Elise." The masked woman replied calmly under Elise's violent outburst. "It was your brother who chose to pawn his Time, not you. technically, you have no right to feel this way."
"Technical my ass!" Elise shouted as she gritted her teeth. She badly wanted to attack the masked woman now, but she knew that it will just make everything worse for her. "Those 1,200 Years, they should be all his! Yet because of your stupid policies, he has no choice but to pawn them!"
"Miss Elise, you know that ever since the Great TimeMaster has taken over this world, everyone's Time has been turned into commodity and currency." The masked woman said as she tilted her head. "As such, things like what your brother just did is a common occurrence here at the United Bank of TimeMasters."
"You bi-"
"Miss Elise, don't think for one second that you can do anything for your brother. That 1,200 Years of Time that he just pawned? Every single part of that is the property of the bank already. If you want to take it back, then you must give us suitable treasures that has enough value." The masked woman said, interrupting Elise's cussing.
"I just want to talk to your f**king manager! Can't you even allow that?" Elise said with exasperation as she attempted to push the masked woman out of her way. "I just want to talk to him!"
"Miss Elise, are you a registered customer of the UBT(United Bank of TimeMasters)?"
"No, I am not, and quite frankly, after seeing your business tactics here, I think I will never be a customer of this bank." Elise replied angrily as she narrowed her eyes.
"In that case, please get out of the premises already." The masked woman said as she snapped her fingers. "If you don't, then I will call the police to arrest you. You don't want to use your own Time to pay your bail, right?"
"You… I swear I will make you all pay for you did to my brother!" In the end, Elise realized that she had no way to talk to the bank directly. The security alone at the front was already this tight. Even if Elise managed to go in, there is no way that she can go to the management without triggering many of their alarms.
She was left with no choice but to leave, with the masked woman waving her goodbye.
"Stupid bastards. How the hell did my brother even know these guys?" Elise muttered to herself as she walked away from the tower.
As she went farther and farther away from the bank, Elise's expression turned worse as she knew the dilemma that her brother was in right now.
"Ugh, ever since I heard what my brother did, he suddenly hid from me. That brat… he's surely afraid of me finding him right now. Hmph, serves him right! If it were not for the fact that he has little Time left, I could have beaten him up to pulp already!"
After saying these words, Elise let out a sigh as she looked down at her right wrist.
There, engraved on her right wrist, were a series of numbers that made Elise sigh more.
[973] [11] [17] [14] [18] [15]
"So, after I bought that flying sword, I was only left with 973 Years, 11 Months, 17 Days, 14 Hours, 18 Minutes, and 15 Seconds of Time? Tsk, I should have never bought that sword…" Elise said as she looked at the Time Counter on her wrist.
"I am at the f**king Nascent Soul Stage too, yet my Time is below 1,000 Years? This is not good for my reputation and livelihood!"
Elise's eyes then narrowed as the number changed at the next second.
[973] [11] [16] [14] [18] [14]
"F**k… I just lost 1 Month of Time right now? That f**king masked woman… she must have deducted my Time!" Elise snarled as she turned around, facing the direction of the bank.
She seemed to want to rush to the bank, although her body language made it apparent that she is dreading to go there.
"Hmph, if I make another scene there, a Year of my Time could be possibly deducted from me! That is just not worth it!" Elise thought to herself glumly as she gave up on her plan to beat up the masked woman.
She looked down at her Time Counter, making sure tat nothing is wrong there.
[973] [11] [16] [14] [18] [09]
"Okay, everything is still fine. I just have to lay low." Elise thought to herself as she shook her right wrist.
After she shook her wrist, the Time Counter disappeared, leaving nothing but Elise's pristine skin on her right wrist.
She then hid her hands under her long sleeves as she walked away with her head stooped low.
This time around, she did not make any noise as she walked along with the crowd.
"Once I come back home, the first thing that I will do is look for my brother." Elise thought to herself as she clenched her fists. "After dealing with that brat, I will then have to talk to Eduardo. I still have to pay my debt to him. How much was it again? F**k, he's the guy that I owe 30 Years of Time! S**t, maybe I should just avoid him?"
Elise could have continued thinking about her tasks, but she was forced to stop as she felt someone's hand on her shoulders.
"Whoever you are, you should remove your hand on my shoulder." Elise said as she stopped on her tracks. "I am a Nascent Soul Practitioner, so you should know that fighting someone like me will just be your end. So if you want to live, you better remove your hand now!"
"Come on Miss, what's the big deal even if I do this?" The owner of the hand seems to be unperturbed with Elise's threat. He seems to be even enjoying it. "So what if you're a Nascent Soul Practitioner? Take a look at my wrist, and you will realize that your power is nothing to me."
"…" Overcome by her curiosity, Elise swung her head as she looked behind her.
There, she could see a young man showing his right wrist to Elise.
The Time Counter on the man's wrist could be clearly seen by Elise, and she could only gape in shock at the numbers engraved on it.
As she saw the man's Time Counter, Elise felt her vision fading as shock began to blossom in her mind.
"How.. how could you have a Time like that?" Elise hoarsely asked as she stared at the young man. "And what the hell do you want with me?"
"Sorry, but I cannot answer your first question." The young man replied as he gave Elise a bow. "As for your second question, you can say that I am in need of a capable helper for my plans. My friends have recommended you, so here I am, recruiting you."
"You need my help for something?"
"Yes, I do." The young man replied as he flashed Elise a smile. "And if you perform well, I can help you out with your debts and your brother's problem."
"How did you-"
"It doesn't matter on how I knew your problems. What matters is that I can help you out." The young man said as he shook his head. "Miss Elise, just accept my recruitment pitch, and I will help you out with your problems."
"I…"
"You wouldn't want your brother's Time to reach Zero, right?"
"You!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
