After shaking hands with Rockefeller, the 1st Prince glanced briefly at Lee Han nearby before leaving.

Trinity also alternately glanced at Rockefeller and Lee Han before immediately following the 1st Prince.

As the two left, Lee Han, who had been quietly watching them, spoke.

"Money must be nice. I never expected that guy, who was so determined to devour you just a moment ago, would change his attitude so quickly. I didn't even see it coming."

The last impression the 1st Prince left was only considering the aftermath of the Crown War.

Rockefeller, who knew this well, smiled at the thought of the departed 1st Prince.

'I never thought his favorite thing in the world would be war funds.'

"Money is nice indeed. Aren't you here because of money as well? And you protected me, a complete stranger. It's all thanks to the power of money."

At those words, Lee Han shook his head.

"It's not money. To be precise, it's magic stones. What I need right now is magic stones."

"But in the end, can't you buy those magic stones with money? So, it's money."

"You're skipping the middle part. What I need right now is magic stones to raise this guy."

Lee Han tapped the sword belt on his waist.

At that moment, an indescribable, profound energy briefly flowed out before being hidden again by Lee Han's interference.

Lee Han spoke again.

"Anyway, it seems like the job ended rather blandly."

Unfortunately, the 1st Prince left quietly, and Lee Han couldn't enjoy the fun.

It would have been really fun if there had been a commotion here, or if he had brought the army outside the city.

Seeing Lee Han genuinely regretful, Rockefeller gave a faint smile.Findd new stories at novelhall.com

"Then, it's settled."

As Lee Han was about to leave, Rockefeller called him.

"Ah, hold on. I might have to call you for another job soon."

At those words, Lee Han expressed doubt.

"Another job? What do you mean by another job? It won't be related to escorting, right?"

"It's not that."

"Then, what is it?"

In order to complete the Goblin Dollar and to completely break free from the shadow of the Sinclair family, Lee Han's power was essential.

"I'm planning something very interesting lately. It's related to that."

"Interesting plan?"

"Yes, simply put, it's complete independence. You probably know very well that we are associated with the Sinclair family."

Lee Han didn't reply and decided to keep listening to Rockefeller's words.

"We even use a very special paper provided by the Sinclair family for the promissory notes we use in our Banco Alliance to prevent forgery. Without that paper, we can't issue promissory notes in the first place, and if we don't use that paper, we can't determine whether it's a forgery, which would be a huge problem."

Rockefeller's words continued.

"Who knows? So far, I don't think there have been any such incidents. The Sinclair family could forge our promissory notes whenever they want. Honestly, who can tell? They provided the special paper and the magical tools to distinguish it. So if they want, they can play with us as much as they like."

"That could be possible. It would be a headache if the relationship turns sour."

"So."

Rockefeller finally told Lee Han what he really wanted.

"In order to completely break free from the influence of the Sinclair family, I want to try a very ingenious project, and your power is needed for that."

What could that be?

Lee Han was filled with strong curiosity.
