The next day.
Theo heard someone knocking on the door.
He opened the door with Ava on his shoulder, finding Agata and a maid waiting outside.
"Sir Theodore, Madam Stella wishes to meet you in the garden. I've been informed that it's about the Cubicar," The maid politely said.
"Hmm…" Theo thought for a moment and nodded. "Sure. Lead the way."
"This way." She led Theo and Agata to the garden.
Despite having a huge mansion to live in, there weren't many people inside taking care of it.
Theo simply looked around to find something interesting inside the mansion, only to find nothing in it.
Eventually, they reached the garden where he found a long twenty feet Cubicar in front of them.
The blonde-haired woman was staring at the Cubicar for a moment until Theo and Agata arrived.
"Good morning." She waved her hand with a smile on her face.
"Good morning." Theo and Agata politely replied.
"I'm calling you here so that you can check this out." She pointed at the Cubicar.
"It's quite long…" Theo furrowed his eyebrows.
"Yes. However, it's a very useful one." She opened the door for them and came inside. "Come in."
Theo and Agata exchanged looks and entered the Cubicar.
Right next to the door, he found a small room. It wasn't that big, but he clearly knew what it was.
When she saw Theo staring at the room, she smirked. "That little girl can't stand to camp outside. She always said, 'I'm earning money to make my life not miserable. If I can't even use the money I made for whatever I want, then there's no point.'
"And she always wanted to have a toilet. She didn't mind washing her body and clothes outside as long as she had a toilet inside."
"Well, I can understand that." Theo nodded in understanding. His gaze then moved to the opposite side.
At the end of the Cubicar, he found a bunk bed for two people.
"Since one of you will always need to either drive the Cubicar or in the lookout during the night, we only prepare a single bunk bed."
Next to the bed was a big wardrobe, but he found no handle on it, making him perplexed. He pointed at the wardrobe and asked, "Is that using a magnet?"
"Ah, that one. It's not a wardrobe. It's the storage for Maya's full body armor. I'll show it to you later." She pointed at the wardrobe next to it. "Well, the one next to it is the wardrobe. I mean, you don't mind sharing a wardrobe, right? You're already an adult and shouldn't take advantage of other people's underwear, right?"
"Who do you think I am?" Theo's eyebrows twitched.
"Haha." She chuckled. Even with Agata beside him, he never did anything, so she was just teasing him. "Anyway, moving on."
She pointed at another wardrobe but made of metal instead of wood like the one for clothes. "This one is…"
She walked there and opened it to show Theo and Agata what was inside.
Theo had expected it, but he was still shocked when he saw all kinds of bullets and magazines inside.
"Maya's ammunition. Well, there are two types of magazines here. It's raw magazines and magic magazines. The latter can be turned into another bracelet or a ring."
"Well, there are too many of them. Is she not going to hold back a bit?"
"Do you think this is enough? She is also making her own bullet during the combat. She's a person who never thinks it's enough. Hmm… The cost of all these ammunitions alone… probably around a hundred million or more? Well, she's also wearing all sorts of bracelets outside the ones here.
"There is also her body armor. So, the total cost of her ammunition alone is around two hundred million Zils. For one expedition, that is. Then, the armor… It costs around seven billion or something. That's only for a Supreme Rank Armor.
"This Cubicar is around six billion because of the expensive cost for shield materials to protect the Cubicar.
"You should know that the majority of people could only go to the other side after they're 17 years old, right?"
"Yeah." Theo nodded with a serious expression.
"Before that, she made her company and told me that she's going to make money to create something like this so she won't suffer when going to the other side.
"Of course, the people around her called her arrogant, but she simply brushed it off, telling them it was all her efforts and if they didn't like her, they could cry to their daddy for something like this. I laughed when I heard that." She chuckled.
Theo fell silent. He knew that even though she was arrogant, everything she had came from her own effort. So, she truly had the right to flaunt her wealth.
"Well, is there any reason for you to tell me something this personal?" Theo glanced at Stella while furrowing his eyebrows.
Stella made a sweet smile as she asked back, "What do you think?"
Theo let out a long sigh while scratching the back of his head. "I'm not this kind of person, you know."
"I know." Stella nodded in agreement. "But you know… Maya's talent in businesses and fighting far surpasses her father and grandfather. So, I have no doubt that she will become a powerful Mythical Rank Expert in the future while creating a business empire.
"That's why I'm troubled with how high her standard is. Hence, Bernard and I have agreed. We don't mind having another daughter-in-law as long as it means she won't be alone in the future." Stella gave a thumbs up.
Theo rolled his eyes and said, "I respectfully decline. Too busy to do that."
"Haha. Well, I just told you. What you will do is not in my control." Stella waved her hand and pointed at the last two things inside. "Anyway, this is the water tank. It's separated into two, for drinking and the toilet. Just don't forget to refill the water once in a while and Maya will do the rest.
"The last one is the driver seat along with a small radar system to check your surroundings along with a place for storage. It's a bit cramped, but I think it's still comfortable."
"Yeah. It will take time to get used to this, but I guess it will be more comfortable than sleeping outside." Theo nodded.
"So, do you want to see her armor?"
