Zolt was taken aback by the firm answer. He looked at the boy before him and asked.
"So, when will you return the money we spent on you?"
Zephyr paused. From what he knew about the world economy, two gold sol was an amount no one could take lightly. The storm tower must have been desperate to curry favors when he was talented.
'Considering that the original Zephyr wanted to leave the castle and land to his family—his sister and children—I don't think it would be right to return the property and call it a day. Ultimately, he fought with tooth and nail for that. It is his last remaining legacy.'
'So…I need to find some other way to clear the debt.'
Zephyr's eyes glanced towards Corvinus.
Seeing it, Corvinus didn't avoid his gaze. As someone who suggested Zephyr join the Royal Academy, he had a part in it. He was about to step in and speak.
However, Zephyr spoke first.
"Sir Corvinus, can I get that amount as a loan? I will pay it back within a year."
