“Okay… I don’t think we will have any problem paying your debt.” Jamila spoke not long after she called Lubius into the living room. From her appearance it was easy to guess that she had just arrived and wasn't thinking of resting or anything like that.

“Well, that’s good news.” Guraj commented as he served the tea in front of Jamila and also didn't forget about Lubius who was sitting in an upright position.

"Ah, thanks darling. Yes, as always they are always easy to work with. But, as always, there's something they're looking for from us too."

“Thank goodness.” Guraj let out a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, Jamila only smiled slightly in response to her husband's words before her eyes became serious as her focus shifted to Lubius.

"With this, it can be said that we managed to solve the problem you created. But as we talked about before. We're not just going to leave it as it is. The most important thing is of course that you still have to pay for all of this." Jamila spoke as she took out various pages of paper and gave them to Lubius.

“Ah, yes. Of course, I will do that.” Lubius spoke as he received the paper and glanced at it. He found that he had gotten a deal that wasn't that simple. “This is…”

"I also don't think it's a good idea to give the payment just like that. Especially considering you won't be getting any loans with your status like this. Well, although you might get some help from the government and maybe from a money lender who's happy to have a man in her grasp." Jamila explained a little bit why she made an agreement like this.

Lubius could see that he could pay a small amount of money every month to his mother. At the same time, his mother also still gave him a little interest. Although it could be said to be very light, it was a little surprising that he added that. He could also see that there were various lists of punishments if he missed the payment deadline. Then on top of all that, there were also various other conditions that made Lubius raise his eyebrows.

Lubius had to help his father with cooking, cleaning, laundry and the like. He even had to cook food for the family one meal every three days. He need either choose prepare breakfast and dinner or prepare lunchbox for his mother...

It was as if all of this was to prepare Lubius to become a housewife.

Well, if Lubius thinks about it… He was twenty years old and since he wasn't working and had dropped out of college. The only thing he could think of was being a stay-at-home husband, right? No, considering what was going on in this world, we could say that she wasn't much different from a woman who dropped out of school due to pregnancy and the like.

"So is there anything you would like to ask?" Jamila asked Lubius with a thoughtful smile on her face.

“No, I don’t have a problem with it.” Lubius answered the question after he observed this agreement. He didn't know what would happen in other families if they found out that their children had debts like this. They might let their son take care of it, they might help him like what happened to him, or worst of all, they might disown him from the family register.

However, Lubius was grateful to be able to get help from them. Even though none of this was his doing. He couldn't simply escape the burden left by his own alternate self. Especially seeing the reaction of his family who seemed to care so much about him. So at least he felt that he had been unable to do anything for his family in his previous life, so seeing that there was no change in the warmth of his parents' kindness in this world. He wanted to at least make them relieved and happy for his family in this world..

Mainly this kind of thing was just a normal chore. But they make it seem like a big deal.

‘This is not a problem for me.’ Lubius thought.

"So about your work? Is there anything that interests you?" Jamila asked, basically remembering that her son had just locked himself in his room for a long time. That was why when she heard Lubius wanted to work she hoped there was something that would interest him so that he could at least enjoy the work. At this point, she only hoped that her son could stand up to the outside world.

Well, Lubius was certainly interested in the labyrinth and things related to Eron. However, it was hard to say at the moment that Lubius in this world had never been interested in Eron, and somehow he could feel that he from this world disliked the fact that he was incompatible with Eron and was miserable because of it.

In this world, people with such low Eron capacity were the same as disabled people after all.

"Of course, if you haven't found anything that catches your eye. You can work in mom's office first. I think they can find a position for you. Basically, offices would be happy to have men interested in working for them, especially after the progressive movement to give men job opportunities. Unfortunately, you will most likely be placed as a receptionist. So it may be too much for you…” Jamila explained what might happen if Lubius was interested in working with his mother. This could be seen as nepotism, but as he listened to Jamila's words about the progressive movement. He wondered if this was something like the gender equality movement in this world.

Once again it showed Lubius that in the end this world still had similarities to the world in his past life.

“Hm, I will think about it.”

To be honest, Lubius wasn't really interested in taking a job like that. Compared to working as a receptionist he still hoped he could get a job that made a lot of money. During the day, he examined what kind of work he could do with the situation he was in. He only had a high school education, no work experience, and of course, a very small Eron capacity.

And the answer was quite brutal… Most of them talk about being an escort which was probably the easiest way for men to get a lot of money from lonely women.

'Ah, there are also those who say being a male model, musician and actor are the only jobs for men that can earn high salaries to match those of women working as hunters and the like. However, can I get a job like that? I heard that many men have to do something in order to get roles and the like. It's an unfortunate thing, isn't it?' Lubius thought so, after he had spent some time looking at what jobs he could get with what he currently had.

In the end, Lubius didn't think he had the talent to be a musician, actor and the like. In addition, he also tried to write stories and imitate various stories that he read in his past life. Unfortunately, in the end he couldn't remember one hundred percent of every paragraph, sentence and word from those stories. No, he could only remember fifteen to twenty percent at most and it could even be worse than that. He was only thinking positively.

Lubius might remember the important things that happened in the story, but he doesn't remember the whole story... So what happens in the end is that he just writes a much different story with the same idea. Even if he got it wrong, the story would have been a lousy copy. That might not convey the same message and butchered the story…

“Haa…” Lubius sighed and thought how lucky the protagonists who were reincarnated and gained system and cheat abilities were.

“Hm, you don’t have to do that, and think to yourself… If you want to try to get another job… you can say it to us. We may help you about it.” Jamila spoke to Lubius after seeing her son sigh.

Lubius thought about speaking up and was interested in trying his luck as a youtuber or steamer. But it felt a little wrong because he might not succeed and in the end he just ended up staying in his room. He didn't want to worry them.

‘Hm… I guess the best thing is that I took my mom's offer and then I can take my free time to make videos and the like. That may be the most realistic way…Well, there's another way I can make it and it's about the extended family that my parents know... If I can connect with them, I can pave my way wide open. You could say I'm lucky that my family knows them. No, having a connection to them will help me a lot.' Lubius could only remember the family when he found the name on the internet.

Only once again it was difficult for Lubius to suddenly talk about them, especially since he somehow had a suspicion that they could have something to do with him getting drugs.

"Alright, now there's one thing I need to talk to you about. Yesterday, I said that we need help from someone. They agreed, but on the condition that you meet their daughter. Ah, of course, if you don't want to... you don't have to insist. Mom will do something."

Lubius couldn't believe that he had gotten such an opportunity so quickly. He couldn't deny that this could have been the luck of the draw as a transmigrator to another world. He had no reason to reject this. He was even a little hopeful that he could meet this woman quickly.
