Interest in Another World
OngoingAuthor
FyedSekar Halim has spent four years behind a bank counter in Jakarta, keeping a perfect poker face while angry customers shout, targets slip, and her inner voice screams.
One night, exhausted after missing her quarterly target, she falls asleep in her uniform and dreams of a strange customer: Lumeth, a fading god of promises from another world. After she politely turns down beauty, power and long life, the god shows her a kingdom where people hide their savings under floorboards and lose everything to thieves and fire.
She signs and stamps the agreement without reading the terms.
Stranded in the medieval town of Corrinford with no money, a mysterious stamping Skill, and a face everyone mistakes for noble confidence, Sekka, as the locals call her, must do the one thing she knows best: earn trust. Her plan? Open the first bank this world has ever seen.
The Adventurers' Guild won't make it easy. Neither will the moneylenders.
Her face stays calm. Her heart is panicking.
