Heimarian Odyssey - Chapter 706

[Chapter 706 Debt]

Crane is not a good person. He always fools Memila’s father, who is from a very poor family, to drink alcohol, and often touches Memila. He used to be ignorant when he was young, but when he is ten years old and understands a little about men and women, Memila gritted her teeth with hatred for Kraun.

His son, Miller, is not a good guy either. Father and son are both lustful and have no skills at all. They idle around in Evra all day, trying to marry Memila in vain.

Unless Memila is stupid, she will spend her whole life with this kind of man.

Watching Crane walking out of the tavern with her father behind her back, Memila spat lightly at the hypocritical bearded beard, and then sighed again. There were five glasses of ale on the table, seven coppers per cup. Thirty-five copper coins are almost two days’ wages plus tips for Memila.

Feeling a little uncomfortable, but Memila still hid the sadness in her heart and began to tidy up the table.

This is her job.

The noodle tank at home is empty, and the drunk father can’t count on it. Memila has to think about food for the next three days, because she will not be paid until three days later, and her father’s wine debt will be removed. Yue’s family can only eat black bread.

These three days are difficult three days. A shrewd tavern owner will not pay his employees wages one day in advance. If he does not want to starve to death, Memila needs to serve every customer with all his heart and hope that there will be tips.

If there is no tip, Memila has to ask the fat man in the back kitchen of the tavern to make her sick, because there are always some leftover dishes in the tavern, and these things are usually recycled to feed the pigs.

If it’s leftovers from the day, it won’t be broken, and Memila can take it home. This will be her and her father’s dinner.

The premise is that the fat man agrees, and no one reports to the boss.

For the sisters who work with her, Memila is trustworthy. The only thing is that the fat chef is a bit difficult to deal with. The fat chef has the common problem of all men, that is, lust.

The older she got, the more convinced Memila was that lust was the essence of a man, because all the men she came into contact with were like that.

Still thinking about how to beg the fat man to give her some food, Memila didn’t notice a group of unexpected guests outside the door at all.

“Memila, I’m looking for you.” The sister’s weak voice at the counter came, and the voice was full of timidity and fear.

The group of people at the door are not easy to mess with.

There were six big guys in total, and these six big guys didn’t dare to block the door, not to mention how strong the background of the owner of the tavern was, the adventurers that might exist in the tavern were beyond the reach of the six ordinary people.

Their purpose in coming was to find Memila.

“Memila, should you repay the interest on the money your family owes this month?” The big man in charge is a man with a scar on his face. His scar is said to be due to a fight with other underground gangs on this street. What was left at the time was the proof of his ‘bravery’.

“Isn’t the interest normally paid after four days? As soon as my salary is paid, I will give it to you immediately.” Walking out of the tavern, Memila whispered.

The money owed by her family was not caused by her father’s alcoholism, but the money owed by her mother when she was sick and passed away. After so many years, the compound interest has reached a horrible figure, and her father can’t count on it. All need Memila to repay.

Of course, the big man in the head knew that the repayment date was four days later. He said this was just a routine practice. He would be assigned by the boss every month to find all the loan sharks who owed them a ‘reminder’.

“Can’t you pay it back in advance! You pigs!”

“That’s right, the interest is repaid at the end of the month every time, so I don’t have spare money to drink and find women!”

“Memila, I think you should follow our Boss Wally, and you don’t need to worry about repaying the interest if the Boss takes care of you.”

“…”

Those who say these words are all the younger brothers of the big man in the head. Every time they come to collect money, these scumbags will humiliate the debtors with words, so they don’t have the quality of pity.

The big guy at the head suppressed his hand and signaled to stop making noise. He is 28 years old this year and has been fighting in the underground gangsters of Evra for more than ten years. Such an idle job, and now even his son is three and a half years old, so how can he look up to a yellow-haired girl like Memila.

Even if he likes it, he is not interested in taking on the debts of Memila’s family. Not all gangsters are bad people. Sometimes they can’t help themselves. He sighed silently, and the leader of the big man said to Memila in a deep voice, ” Pay back the interest in four days, don’t forget! I’ll ask Hal to ask you for two silver coins.”

“Yes, thank you, Brother Wally!” Memila thanked the strong man with tears running down her eyes.

Shaking his head, instead of continuing to stand at the door of the tavern to hinder people from doing business, Wally took his five younger brothers and walked towards the next one.

Memila was very bitter. If her father was drinking too much, she wouldn’t be here. At least she and her father would be able to make ends meet without starving to death. But the debt owed by the family is a big problem.

Even if Memila worked all her life, she might not be able to pay off the debt. If her father doesn’t drink too much, then there is still hope, but…

Memila thought that after so many years of suffering, she had learned to be patient and would not cry anymore, but the tears in the corners of her eyes were not fake, and a faint salty smell fell into her mouth. After recovering, Memila hurriedly Wipe away the tears and run back to the store.

It’s her working time now.

Memila’s eyes were still a little red and swollen, and the sisters at the counter felt uncomfortable when they saw it, “Go and entertain that guest, Wa Ni is here, I will ask her to help you work as a door attendant for a while.”

“Thank you, Ruby.” Memila’s voice was choked with sobs.

Although the position of door attendant allows them to avoid the smog in the tavern and the harassment of guests, but if they can choose, the girls who work here are more willing to do the reception work in the tavern.

Occasionally, they would meet some extravagant guests, and they would give some tips to the waiters who entertained them. If the guests ordered more expensive wine, they could also get some commission.

Memila hopes that she can entertain adventurers in the future, because adventurers are often very generous. It would be even better if they are noble summoners and knights. The worst thing about these people is money.

If there are no adventurers, rich businessmen are also fine, at worst, they will get a little profit. For the sake of livelihood, Memila has long looked down on everything.

It is impossible for nobles to come to this kind of tavern to drink, although this tavern named Rose Flower is also counted as a mid-to-high-end tavern in Evra.

Holding the menu and walking towards the customer, Memila noticed that the customer seemed to be the one she introduced earlier.

Then Memila’s eyes lit up, because of years of professional experience, Memila could see that Locke was not an ordinary civilian.
