Chapter 402: Gift Breakthrough (6)

‘Is he… is he crazy?’

It felt like the world was spinning.

Even after seeing the congratulatory donation list with his own eyes, Yeongwoo found it hard to believe.

10 billion karma donation.

And this was after already donating 5 billion karma.

Now an additional 10 billion had been poured in.

[1st Place] Aldo,「15 billion」

[2nd Place] Lemu,「Private」

[3rd Place] Mara, Ominous Eyes,「Private」

[4th Place] Dogo,「3 billion」

[5th Place] Hamr of Kwaya, Private」

The current total donation for 1st place was 15 billion.

This spoke volus.

Above all, it confird that Prince Aldo’s talk of balance was sincere...

‘It also ans that the Shelbir royal family’s credit is solid enough to approve a 10 billion loan on the spot.’

Aldo hadn’t just casually brought 5 billion in cash for no reason.

No doubt the Shelbir royal family’s financial strength was beyond imagination.

But no matter how wealthy they were, taking out a 10 billion loan just for wedding donations was excessive.

‘I think Prince Aldo overdid it. He’ll probably be scolded a lot when he returns to Doatel.’

Yeongwoo also had a keen sense of awareness.

The mont Prince Aldo made the 10 billion donation, he could feel the chairs of the assembly mbers trembling with agitation.

Even for 3rd-level beings like Dogo and Mara, 10 billion karma was an enormous amount.

So, it was obvious that for a royal family whose status seed to be below the 3rd level, 10 billion was a significant sum.

And that wasn’t all.

Because Aldo raised the stakes to 15 billion, anyone wanting to contend with the top two assembly mbers would now have to spend at least that much.

In other words:

‘This crazy, oblivious caral bastard.’

Prince Aldo had completely overturned the assembly mbers’ banquet.

‘No matter how proud they are, I don’t think they’d spend 15 billion on donations for a wedding in the boondocks. It doesn’t make financial sense.’

Lemu’s high-grade legendary spear had only been worth 1.6 billion.

So, 15 billion could buy nearly ten pieces of such equipnt.

‘But the problem is...’

Yeongwoo’s gaze shifted back to the donation ranking board.

It was all because of the 3rd place spot.

[3rd Place] Mara, Ominous Eyes,「Private」

The only position where even becoming the 1st place donor couldn’t lead to banishnt—the 3rd place spot.

And now, that spot was in Mara’s hands.

Mara, the biggest rival of the Chairman for this event, and the very cause of imbalance that Prince Aldo had desperately wanted to eliminate.

‘This ans I’m the only real winner of this wedding, doesn’t it?’

If there was another winner, it might be Lemu, who ended up just above Dogo, through sheer luck.

‘Anyway, I’ve raked in over 200 billion just from the donations. Sweet.’

While Yeongwoo tried to suppress the grin that threatened to spread across his face, a broadcast announcent echoed through the hall.

「The wedding ceremony will begin in one minute.」

‘Finally.’

「Guests who have not yet made their donation, please do so now. The wedding hall’s entrance will be sealed shortly.」

This included those who wished to make a second donation.

In other words, if no one made a second donation within the next minute, the current donation rankings would be finalized.

“Alright, everyone…”

Just as Yeongwoo was about to ask the guests to take their seats—

Boom!

A loud impact echoed from one side of the hall.

“…Huh?”

Turning toward the source of the sound, Yeongwoo saw a sight he couldn’t believe.

Clang!

Dogo.

The master of the Hundred Thousand Sword Mountain and the so-called King of Destruction, Dogo had stepped onto the floor of the wedding hall.

‘…What?’

This was unprecedented.

The Chairman had never once set foot on Earth before.

This act alone spoke volus about his resolve.

Sure enough, Mara twisted his head slightly and laughed at the sight of Dogo.

—A low birth is hard to deny!

The implication was clear—Dogo was the illegitimate child of a royal family, which was why he could set foot on such a lowly planet.

‘Wait, then what’s Mara’s origin?’

While Yeongwoo tried to decipher Mara’s words, the Chairman’s booming voice resounded through the hall.

—My blessing for this ceremony has reached the heavens!

With that, Dogo drew a massive sword from his waist.

Schiiing!

The blade glinted in the hall’s light, casting a long shadow across the second donation platform.

‘Chairman, no way—’

Realizing that Dogo had failed to overco his pride, Yeongwoo widened his eyes in desperation.

Because—

—Anyone who desires the throne, stand before !

The leader had declared with a sharp edge in his voice, swinging his sword straight down onto the second donation platform.

Boom!

The sword struck with such force that the platform’s top was deeply split, emitting a brilliant glow.

[Translator - Night]

[Proofreader - Gun]

Dogo had officially made a second donation to claim the top spot.

Of course, he was never one to sit idly by while Lemu and Mara outranked him.

But to claim 1st place on the rankings now…

‘Seriously, is he insane? No wonder people say he’s not a great businessman. Just how much did he donate?’

Yeongwoo stared at the Chairman’s sword, which had quite literally split the platform in two.

At that mont, the platform began projecting the updated rankings onto the front wall of the hall.

Shiiiing!

[Rank 1] Dogo,「20 Billion」

[Rank 2] Aldo,「15 Billion」

[Rank 3] Lemu,「Private」

[Rank 4] Mara, Ominous Eye,「Private」

[Rank 5] Hamr of Kwaya, Private

"20 billion..."

When Yeongwoo unknowingly muttered the amount aloud, Chairman Dogo glanced at him and then sheathed his greatsword at his waist.

Clink!

—The wedding hall is well-built, I see.

The chairman spoke in a stately tone.

Then, he suddenly raised both arms to chest height.

Swish.

As if waiting for this mont, armrests appeared beneath his elbows, lifting Dogo into the air again.

The throne of the wedding’s top ranking had returned to its rightful owner.

Simultaneously, the virgin road and the altar at the front of the wedding hall began to be adorned with Dogo’s insignia.

Pop, pop, pop!

“What?”

—...?

—What’s going on?

It was the first ti the entire wedding hall had been filled with the insignia of the number-one ranker, and the guests were all wide-eyed with surprise.

Soon after, the reason was announced via the wedding hall system.

「The wedding ceremony will begin in 10 seconds.」

There were only 10 seconds left before the final owner of the throne was decided.

That’s why the wedding hall had already begun the ceremonial process for Dogo, the temporary “true number one.”

—2-20 billion...?

—There’s only 10 seconds left.

—Is it over just like this?

All eyes naturally turned to one place.

The target of their gaze was none other than Mara, King of Ten Thousand Demons, who ranked 4th.

He had fiercely competed with Dogo in the first gift-giving round and was one of only two third-tier beings in the hall.

Would soone like him be satisfied with the 4th rank?

Especially beneath a fourth-tier chanical being like Lemu?

—Things just got interesting.

With all eyes on him, Mara’s face twisted into a grin.

However, he didn’t imdiately rush to the offering podium.

The price required to save face had risen too high.

To avoid the sha of being under Dogo and Lemu, he needed to aim for 1st place, aning he’d have to spend at least 20 billion.

—Mara! What are you doing? Co to the field!

Dogo pointed at the offering podium with his finger and called out to Mara.

「The wedding will begin in 5 seconds.」

Now, only 5 seconds remained before the end of the offering period.

Executive Daouk was already standing near the podium, waiting for the next guest, and Yeongwoo swallowed nervously in anticipation of a surprise move from a wealthy guest.

Gulp.

Still, Mara remained suspended in the air, rely staring at the offering podium.

—Fools. How much are you planning to pour into this tiny planet?

Mara revealed his reluctance to deal with the high offering hurdle.

Aldo, who ranked 2nd, looked up at Mara from the floor of the wedding hall.

—You have plenty of bad karma... but not enough money?

—What?

At Aldo’s taunting remark, Mara split his jaw in rage.

At the sa ti, Dogo’s insignia appeared over the heads of everyone in the hall, except for Lemu.

Beep-beep-beep-beep-beep!

“What the...?”

—...!
