A Hentai System in the World of Danmachi.

Chapter 54 – A lot of money.



Chapter 54 – A lot of money.

I went back to my room and stayed there until nightfall. The only thing I did during the day was write the second volume of Re: Zero and try to get my computer working again.

In the end, it didn't work, so I'll have to continue writing by hand.

Speaking of which, I'm running out of paper.

Last time, I forgot to ask the librarian for some paper, but I'll do that now since I'm going there anyway. I'll also take my second volume for her to review. (I wrote half of it)

And about the story... I'm starting to forget a lot of details. I need to remember what happens in the rest of volume two... And later follow the story in my own way.

Write something original.

'But I'm afraid of messing it up.'

Well, I have more memories of the two anime seasons than the rest of the novel, so I can write something "original" using the scenes I remember from the anime.

'I'll think about that later.'

I left my room to go to the library. It was already dark, and the sky was starless because it was completely cloudy. The weather was also cold, and it looked like it might rain.

When I arrived at the library door, there weren't many customers left.

I walked past the line, and no one complained. When I reached the entrance, I noticed Hestia was no longer there. I entered the library, and the owner saw me and waved.

"Luan, you finally showed up. Why did you take so long? I've been waiting for you all day."

"You could have sent someone to let me know before you started selling. I would probably have been here in the morning."

"You didn't give me your address."

"But wasn't Goddess Hestia here? I'm part of the Hestia Familia; you could have talked to her."

"Wait, you're a member of the Hestia Familia? The Goddess didn't tell me anything about that. You didn't mention it either." The woman seemed surprised by the information she had just received.

I sighed deeply and turned to the customers that were waiting.

"You can attend to everyone. Let's talk later."

The woman nodded and attended to the remaining customers. Finally, the library was closed, and we could talk in peace. The first thing I asked her was how the sales were going.

I already knew my book was selling well, but I wanted to know how many we had sold.

"Hmm... We've sold almost all of the three thousand copies we made. There are probably around 200 books left."

"So that means we sold over 2,000 copies? Isn't that amazing?"

"You're curious about how much money we made, right? Hehehe." She laughed and then showed me a paper. There were the production costs and also the profit.

To my surprise, the profit was enormous.

She was selling each book for 1,200 Valis.

And the total profit we made was 2.4 million Valis. I will receive 85% of this amount, which means I will get around 2 million Valis. And this is just the first volume! And only the first day of sales!

Isn't that wild?

"Isn't that a lot of money? I didn't expect we would sell that much."

"I had some idea of the success your book would have, but this is surprising. You owe a lot to your Goddess. She was here all morning and afternoon."

"I'm very curious about this... How did she end up here? Did she ask you for a job?"

"Well... I met her on the street and tried to talk to her. The Goddess seemed very sad, you know?"

"Sad?"

"Yes. When I talked to Hestia, she said she couldn't find a job because there weren't many things she could do... So I offered her the job. Do you think I made the wrong choice?"

"No, of course not. I'm happy that Hestia promoted my book! I'm sure that's why it sold so much. I'll thank her by buying her a present."

"I'm sure she'll be very happy. She accepted the job before knowing it was your book, but she got much more excited when she found out it was yours."

"Really? That makes me happy." I said with a smile.

"Value your Goddess a lot. She likes you very much... I think maybe a little too much." The woman said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"It's nothing. It's just that Hestia seemed a little too happy. I tried to talk to her about you, but she seemed very embarrassed." The woman laughed teasingly, and I cleared my throat.

"Well, we get along very well."

After this conversation, I took all my money. I don't know where to keep it, but I want to take it.

With my money, I went to the church. I want to thank Hestia. Without her, I would have sold far fewer books on the first day.

Even though I told her not to get a job, in the end, it helped us make a lot of money.

It won't be long before we can look for our own house.
