“Ten thousand minus 20 equals 9,980.”

He displayed the number on the device for Daphne and Robin to sec.

“Oh my God!” Daphne could hardly believe what she was seeing.

Was the store owner out of his mind?

How had she gotten so confused by his calculations?

A bottle costs 20, and two bottles should be 40, but after returning one, the price jumped to 10,080?

Did Rosha’s math even work the same way as Earthend’s?

Daphne and Robin exchanged a look. “What if we just don’t want any bottles?”

“Sure, please wait a moment.” The man continued to tap away at the device with a polite smile.

“10,080 minus 20 equals 10,060, plus a 100–coin refund equals 10,160 Netheris coins.

“Your total comes to 10,160 Netheris coins.”
