Another World Mall-Chapter 620: Mall’s New Section

"Now that the money problem is solved, it’s time to focus on my Another World Mall again." Clovis muttered, looking at the one billion that had just been transferred. He had been eating all sorts of items to increase his evolution progress, so it wouldn’t be long before he reached Tier 4.

Clovis entered the mall, knowing that the first thing he should do was to upgrade the mall.

As usual, Blue was already there, waiting for him.

[Welcome back, Master.]

"Oh! I’m back, Blue. Well, I’m here to once again upgrade the mall to open a new type of store." Clovis glanced at his status, noticing something different.

"Huh, wait?"

There was one important thing that was missing. And it was none other than money.

[Money: 1,123,960,304 coins.]

"Blue…" Clovis pointed at the money. "Why did I only have this much money? With 1 billion from Hana and 150 million from selling my materials, and my initial money, shouldn’t I have about 1.3 billion?"

[There is no mistake in the money calculation, Master.]

"What do you mean?" Clovis frowned. "Don’t tell me. "Is there a tax or something?"

[There is no such thing.]

"Then why do I have less money?"

[It can happen because of two scenarios. The first will be the money you receive is not real money.]

"Something like a fake one? Is it from money laundering or something? Or is it fake money made by bad guys?"

[It is a possibility. The second scenario will be the money that you’ve received is actually the one you’ve owned before.]

"!!!" Clovis widened his eyes in shock. "Something I’ve owned before? Don’t tell me. Even with the money circulating around, something that has been registered won’t come back? It’s not even giving someone money and the other person is returning it…"

[Yes. Even if you buy something with real money and the seller buys things, which somehow makes your money return to you, the money that has been registered won’t be recognized.]

"Ah, shit." Clovis clicked his tongue. "Doesn’t this mean there’s an infinite amount of money I can get? No. Should I ask Hana to rapidly expand the business overseas? I might have spent a huge amount of money in this country, but not in other countries. I can still get a lot of money if I see the global market."

[That is also a solution, Master. However, ultimately, everything will run out and you have to find other solutions.]

"I see. Still, you’re using Union Dollar as the base conversion, right?"

[Yes. The mall has registered it to be the base value. Even if you earn money with a different currency, it will be converted according to the base value and exchange rate that your world has.]

"This is getting complicated." Clovis sighed. "Nevertheless, expanding overseas might not be a bad idea. I can get more money that way. The mall sucks a lot of money after all."

Clovis fell into deep thought as he adjusted his plan a bit. After that, he turned to Blue, asking, "By the way, I’m going to upgrade the mall three times and open a new shop. Can you handle it for me, Blue?"

[Of course, Master. However, there is something I’d like to warn you about.]

"What is it? If the money is not enough, you can’t proceed?"

[No. After opening this new shop, the mall will be undergoing a renovation.]

"A renovation?" Clovis frowned. "Do you mean I can’t access the mall?"

[Not necessarily. Please follow me.]

Blue guided him to the other side of the mall, where everything was empty. In fact, he couldn’t go past the dark area as it hadn’t been unlocked.

"Why did you bring me here, Blue?"

[For the next upgrade, you will be able to open this area. This will be different from the stores and entertainment area.]

"Stores and entertainment, huh? And it’s not food either, right?"

[Yes. This section was off-limits previously because of one thing. It provides service.]

"Service? Now that I think about it, everything has been self-service this whole time. It changes when Blue is here, but it’s true that there is no shop selling services. All of them are items or entertainments."

[Yes, Master. This section is for service.]

"I see. So, the one providing that service… It’s not a real human, right? I can’t imagine you transporting a real human here…"

[Yes. Everything will be handled by robots. However, unlike me, a guiding robot, the service robots are humanoid robots mimicking the appearance of people in this world. You may even change their appearance to suit your needs.]

"Fulfilling my request, huh? Considering there are items made of fantasy creatures, it’s possible to even make an elf, vampire, or something else. Is that what you mean?"

[Essentially, yes. It is also more beneficial to mimic the human’s appearance since it’s that kind of service.]

"That kind of service?" Clovis’ eyebrows twitched. "Lewd one?"

[We definitely offer such a service. I’m sure that Master has known about it after visiting the bookstore and movie theater. However, that’s not all. In this section, you will find a lot of shops offering services such as salons and spas.]

"For real?" Clovis sighed. "Now that I think about it, I am supposed to be able to bring someone soon, right? The reason you’re offering service… Are you trying to cater to more people? You even specifically mentioned the salon and spa. Are you going to make the girls visit that place?"

[I am just a Guiding Model AI. I have no authority to change the mall’s upgrade plan.]

"…" Clovis facepalmed. Considering the items they sold in this mall, suddenly having a beauty shop that could allow people to look young or more beautiful, which somehow transcended anything he had seen in the real world, wouldn’t surprise him.

Clovis let out a long sigh. "I understand. For the time being, I want to focus on upgrading the mall. It’s only going to open this section, not open a new store in this section, right?"

[Yes, Master.]

"In that case, let’s proceed with the upgrade."

[Processing.]
