It seems Ves did not read the fine print. It said "Further on" for improving genetic aptitude. Meaning, it is not immediately available. If it was going to be immediately available, it would have used the word "furthermore" instead. This means his daughter could end up being too old for the enhancement at the time it becomes available to Ves.
It sucks to see him hesitate but this is truely a turning point in his life. Unless he finds/takes more fragments of the scroll, he wonât be seeing this again. But then again, this happened because he found a certain metal. Maybe choosing an option that boosts his power/clans power immediately will help get those metals faster.
Well... I wonder if he can negotiate with The System to sell some services to the MTA in exchange for its exotic shopping list? That means The System cannot go offline without a warning. Cannot change prices unexpectedly, and cannot impose limits on purchasing without clearly stating said limits at the outset. Still... Ves pretending to be the "front man" for a new faction will be hilarious to watch!
