Kogis dismissively said,
"The Clan Leader speaks wisely, it was a needless worry on my part."
"No worries, it's the thought that counts."
"Actually, Clan Leader, there's another matter I need help with on this visit."
After the formalities, Gotten spoke with a smile on his face.
Kogis, having listened to Gotten, narrowed his eyes and replied,
"You're being too formal, what kind of relationship do we have? We're not blood brothers, but we're as close as if we were. Just say what you need!"
"Well, I'll speak plainly then, Lord Kogis! The Heart of Sky Base project our corporate group has been constructing has been completed for over fifty years now. There's still 40% of the final payment left, totaling 42 trillion Dark Star credits, what do you think..."
Gotten said cheerily.
"Oh, come on, Brother Gotten, what's our relationship! If I had the money, wouldn't I pay? It's just that I'm broke."
"Clan Leader, you must be joking. How could you possibly be out of money?"
