I was inside my room, pushing the buttons before me. As for what I was doing, I was looking for things to invest in.
Know that, even though I was planning to invest in that girl and her guild, I fairly underestimated the money I could make from going to dungeons and selling the corpses.
The bracelet saved me a lot more money than I had initially expected. Therefore, there were a lot more funds than I could use on Emilia. She would probably not accept such money from a stranger, and that was pretty normal.
Therefore, I started looking at the companies and the guilds on the Internet and their stock prices. Even though I was not that engulfed in the stock market in the game, knowing the future events, maybe I could find a guild that would later rise or something.

I kept searching and surveying on the internet.
'There are quite a few that I think get a lot more popular, but I am not sure.'
There were certainly some names that I knew from the game, but it was a little hard to read the stock market prices and convert the information to how they were doing right now.
Some of the guild's stocks may not be as high as I expected them to be, but that didn't necessarily mean those stocks were going to rise in the future. In the end, the stock market doesn't specifically reflect how the guild is doing on their ranking or how their hunter job is going. There are other things that affect it, and this is what differentiates the real world from the game.
Just as I was looking at the guilds, one of the other parts got my attention.
Agency Groups, Mercenaries, and Free Lancer Works.
'Right, there was such a setting.' I thought. In the game, one could not only be a Hunter and join a guild, but they could also become a Mercenary that goes with commissions or Free Lancers that would venture around the guilds and join their operations.
'Now that I think about it, is the Agency Group Ethan is going to find here?' I thought and started surveying under the tab Agency Groups.
Since Ethan was a good kid that wanted to raise his strength, he naturally ventured around the world, and thanks to a talented agency he had found, as a player, we would have quite an easy time finding gates, dungeons, or monsters in the wilderness.
'Though, they also brought quite a lot of troubles to him thanks to their unique past.'
Sitting before the laptop, I stared, pondering about this investment was worth it or not.
'That little kid….He was really useful, his knowledge of computers and his trait being related to them.'
Having a hacker certainly would help, especially for my goal. But at the same time, not every people in this world would follow a person that wishes to murder every bit of demon and erase their existence, which left me in a dilemma.
'Either I am going to make them extremely loyal to me, or I am not going to reveal my purpose.' That was what I had concluded.
'For now, this matter is far in the future. There is no point in thinking about this now.' I thought, but I still took a mental note for the future.
But that didn't mean I couldn't invest in their little agency.
'Let's invest around 20000 Valer. I don't need immediate money for now.'
Since I had also visited the dungeon inside the Black Market, I now had around 70k in my bank account, and the debt of the academy had one whole year to pay, so I didn't need to make it worse.
Though while investing in them, I used a small amount of money to commission a broker from the black market, making myself anonymous, though that kid would certainly trace me back.
'Let's teach you a little bit about the world.'
With that thought, I spent 25k investing in them.

At that moment, a message came from my watch as I looked into its content.
DING DING
Though, following it was another two.
'Must be clubs.'
I thought and opened the panel.

------------------------
Looking at the messages in front of me, I could certainly feel the differences between the clubs' atmospheres from the tone of the messages alone.
Adventurer Exploration's message was short, but its tone was simply polite and welcoming, while the archery club was arrogant and serious.
It was enough to show that how where this Archery Clubs' egoistic reputation came from. Even their messages were arrogant.
And, as for the History and Arts Club, it was certainly showing the characteristics of that shining senior who is the club president.
'That woman was too bright….I should maintain my distance from her.' I thought as I closed the laptop.
The night was already there, and I needed to sleep soon.
