After power-leveling Drake's team, Tristan was ready to return to Davi City.
This trip had been more than worthwhile.
Over 200 Gold Coins plus more than $2 million in cash.
He was now financially secure both in-game and in real life.
Drake was perceptive—he didn't waste time with unnecessary words and simply said solemnly, "Blackshade, if you ever need anything, just say the word. IFA will support you with everything we've got."
Tristan nodded. "I'll reach out if something comes up. I'm heading off."
After exchanging a few words with Cleric Sophie and the others, he made his way back to the newbie village.
But before he could even reach the teleportation circle—
A crowd surrounded him.
Several guild leaders approached, speaking in eager tones:
"Blackshade, are you still offering power-leveling services? Name your price—we'll make it worth your time! I heard you charged Drake $500,000 per hour—I'll pay double!"
