‘Ha, I’m finally done.’

A full-scale excavation and transaction agreement for a large constellation gold mine had been signed. In any case, the constellation gold mine had never been mined by a single individual before. This was not because of any legal issues at stake, but because of the fact that only the Ministerial Palace possessed the technology, equipment, and workers that could process the mine.

It was not that others hadn’t thought about introducing that technology. However, the mine was very difficult to handle. Moreover, as the term “God-given metal” implied, it was a large amount of gold, and it was a real thing that could not be handled in other places other than the Great Temple, such as prayer and the sacred power of priests. That was why the Great Temple made it easy for the masses to access its technological city. But it was hard to copy it.

It would be better to pay a fee. There was another purpose that was more important to Seria anyway.



Seria had a more important goal in mind. She could use the constellation gold to make swords and weapons.

Since the amount of constellation gold was not so large in the past, it was more profitable to make another piece of constellation gold armor than to experiment with it.

Anyway, It was a definite answer to the experiment, and now mining was scheduled to begin smoothly.

“My lady.”

Seria smiled when Abigail called her.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the Lady smile so brightly.”

Seria nearly spat out a mouthful of water and could barely keep it from spilling out.

With the amount of money scheduled to come and go on an all-time high, it would be hard for anyone to hold back a giggle, wouldn’t it? Seria thought to herself, in all seriousness.

“Are you going to the auction again?”

The thrill of winning the bid for the last item at the highest price! Seria couldn’t forget it. She put in her mind the idea of going once more to the auction house, both to buy a present for Lesche and to get to know the other ladies.

“Grand Duchess.”

At that moment, Linon came and said,

“The priests from the temple have arrived. I brought them to the reception room.”

“I see. I’ll see you downstairs.”

Seria got up and looked in the mirror. After making sure that she looked flawless, she took a step.

“They are here for the Stern insignia?”

“Yes, Grand Duchess.”

In exchange for being the first disclosure of the constellation gold mine to the priests, Seria had persistently demanded various concessions, one of which was the Stern insignia that she used as a passage to Tuban.

The Stern insignia was even inscribed with a number and was thoroughly controlled, so it was decided that the insignia would go to the Great Temple once to be contrasted, and after thorough recording, would be brought back by a qualified person appointed by the Great Temple to officially hand it over to the Berg family.

Personally, the insignia of the Stern symbolized so much that it was normal for it to be handed over in the name of the family.

April parlor was the name of one of the many parlors on the first floor of the Berg residence. Befitting its sunny name, it was decorated with a fresh and warm atmosphere, and was Seria’s most favorite place.
