INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything - Chapter 75

Chapter 75: Chapter 75 – Curiosity
I laughed as I took the card back and told him “Sorry, it’s just a habit of mine, whenever I use my ID card I always get in some kind of trouble.”

“Is that so?” The guy in the counter narrowed his eyes before telling me “Why don’t you give me the card again I’ll check if there’s any problem with it or not.”

…Did I just hammer my own leg?

“Ahaha… No thank you. You don’t need to do that.” I awkwardly laughed as I told him.

“No no it’s okay let me, I want to help people… in your predicament.” As he said that he’s eyes were giving me a different meaning.

“It’s okay, you really don’t need to.” I say and try to take back my Identification Card from the counter.

But the guy stops it and even tries to take it back “It is our policy to help people, so… please.. give.. it.. to me”

I use all my strength to stop him from taking it but he was also strong enough to stop me from taking it as well.

“What Policy, I am clearly telling you it is okay you don’t need to, so the policy doesn’t apply to it.”

“But as I said it’ll be my honor to so GIVE IT.”

As we keep playing this tug of war, the Identification Card starts to feel a lot of pressure and a few more will break it. But before that could happen a voice suddenly speaks authoritatively.

“It’s okay, Give him back the Card.” An elderly voice said from a far standing point.

The middle aged guy in the counter hearing that instantly let go of the card. But because we were playing tug of war so fiercely and the card being suddenly freed, I got pulled back and I was going to fall on the floor.

As I was about to fall on the floor the elderly voice from before quickly came behind me and caught me before I could fall on the floor.

“Thank you, sir.” After getting my stance steady, I look back to see a elderly man in his 60’s. The man was around 7 feet tall and he had almost silver hair that went down to his waist.

He was wearing a hanfu that had a mix of white and green colors with some designs that showed penjing trees.

As I was looking curiously at him and his style of clothes the old man said with a gentle smile to me.

“You are not hurt, Are you?”

“No thanks to you I didn’t get hurt, it’s just the guy suddenly let the card go so I couldn’t get my balance clear.”

“Ohh! They have strict rules to help people in need of help and information so they did that. But please take my sorry for our subordinates fault.” The elderly man said and tried to give a bow.

I couldn’t let the elderly man bow to me as I’m not arrogant enough nor was this man in any fault and most of all… who the hell bows so embarrassingly in front of so many people.

I quickly stop him with both my hands and say “No no, please don’t do that. You are an elder, you shouldn’t bow to me and secondly it was not your fault so please get up.”

Looking at the elderly man bowing, the guy in the counter jumped from there and quickly landed beside me as he bowed and started apologizing.

“Accept my sorry, but please don’t let the sir be shamed like this, I beg of you.”

Looking at him bowing as well I thought awkwardly ‘Hey hey, why are you bowing also. Don’t you see that I am trying to stop this guy from doing it, why are you also joining him, what is wrong with this people’s mindsets.’

I also try to stop the guy from bowing any further as I tell him “You don’t have to apologize, you were not in fault as well. Actually it is nobodies fault as you were just listening to your orders and you were trying to help me so that doesn’t count.”

Hearing my words the guy from the counter felt even more ashamed by his earlier actions as he bowed even more extremely and apologized.

“I’M SORRY! and thank you for your magnanimity.” He said and finally got up slowly from his bow.

The elderly man seeing my kind nature smiled profusely as he nodded sagely and thought ‘This is what a children should be like. Honorable and Kind to everyone… Aah, alas you don’t see that in everyone. And some one like him… With his constitution. It is indeed a great loss… but maybe not yet.’

As the bowing process ended I thank both of them and was about to leave.

“Wait, Young Boy.”

I look at the elderly man and see that he is calling me while fanning himself with a Shan that wasn’t there earlier.

“Do you have some time?”

“Hmm. Yes, do you need something?”

“No but looking at your kind nature I was thinking of giving you a personal tour of our establishment. What do you say?”

I think about his offer and look at him more intensely. There was this gentle aura around him that made me feel relieved and my inner self was telling me that I could trust him.

So I let my inner self make the decision and nod towards him and said “Alright, thank you for this.”

“No matter, No matter. Come let me give you a tour.” He said and started walking towards the stairs. I started following behind him as he showed different rooms that were for various things like living quarters, restaurants, entertainment and many more.

But the most excellent to me were the training rooms. Not only do they have those mana pools but they also had training fields that were made for personalized training and for many people as well.

As we were walking I asked him “Sir, can I ask you something?”

“It’s Zongfa but you can call me Elder Zongfa. What is your name young one?”

“It’s William si- Elder Zongfa.”

He nodded hearing my name and said “Yes, Good Name. and of course you can.”

“What does the Alliance Federation do?”

Hearing my question he suddenly went into deep thoughts as he looked downwards.

“I’m sorry that I don’t even know such a simple thing.” I said to him with a awkward smile.

“Why are you sorry, it’s not like it is a rule that you have to know what we do over here, now is it.” I shook my head as he continued with his wise words and answered my question.

“Hmm… What we do here, huh. It is indeed a fine question and many would answer in many beautiful words that would make our establishment even more beloved but I will tell you what it is in my words.”

“The AF or more precisely the Alliance Federation was created for one and only reason and That is to protect.”

“Not the Riches or the people from the higher classes but we strive to protect what is innocent, we protect the people who don’t have the strength protect themselves, we help the ones who ask for help.”

“In my words we protect those that can’t protect themselves.”

I nodded solemnly hearing his words and ask another question.

“Which Kingdom was it that built the Alliance Federation?”

“It wasn’t built by any kingdom but

A simple commoner.”
