Cecilia Sterling sat on a plaza bench, scrolling through her phone for a full two hours before she finally figured out the reality of the world she was in.

Almost nothing had changed—not the people, the places, or the things. The only difference was the prices. Based on her memories of prices from her past life, the currency in this world had devalued by a factor of ten thousand.

In other words, the ten-dollar check Shawn Lane’s mother had given her was equivalent to a hundred thousand dollars in her previous life.

However, just as Cecilia decided to check her own finances and instinctively opened her WhatsApp wallet, she nearly screamed out loud.

She clapped a hand over her mouth, her eyes wide as she stared at the string of numbers in her balance: 648,755.6725 Dollars.

Almost 650,000!

This number wasn’t unfamiliar to Cecilia. Before she retired, she had sold her car, and the dealership had sent her six WhatsApp transfers of one hundred thousand dollars each. Combined with her original balance, it added up to the exact figure she was seeing now.

’My WhatsApp balance... it came back with me from age sixty-five to twenty?’

’Wait...’

’If my WhatsApp balance could do this, then what about my bank card?’

Her entire life’s savings, her pension and funeral fund, amounted to nearly five million, all in a single Construction Bank card.

Her fingers trembled slightly as she opened the linked bank card section in her WhatsApp wallet. She couldn’t remember the full card number, but she remembered the last few digits very clearly.

1069.

The screen changed. A single bank card was linked to her WhatsApp, and on it were two words: Chrono Bank.

And when she saw the last four digits of the card number, Cecilia’s pupils trembled with excitement. It was "1069"!

She snapped back to her senses, her mind racing. She quickly switched back to her phone’s home screen and, sure enough, saw an app for "Chrono Bank".

It was all so fantastical that Cecilia felt she wouldn’t be surprised by anything else that happened.

She opened the app. The system automatically scanned her face and logged her in directly. The interface was clean, with no messy text or ads—it only showed Cecilia Sterling’s name, her card number, and the account balance.

4,762,359.88 Dollars.

Her entire savings from her past life, down to the last cent!

And in this world of global devaluation, her current assets were equivalent to—over fifty billion!

Over fifty... billion?

The rarity of that number was right up there with 0.75%.

September in Lorcain was muggy and hot, but Cecilia Sterling sat in the plaza until nightfall before she was finally able to calm down completely.

Finally, she stood up, hailed a taxi by the roadside, and returned to the university.

Lorcain University of Science and Technology, women’s dorm, room 309.
