The early morning mist shrouded Mondstadt in a soft veil as Satoshi walked towards the Mondstadt Bank, a bundle of blueprints tucked securely under his arm. The mission given by the System was clear: modernize the Mondstadt banking system. And after the successful deployment of the construction machine, Satoshi was eager to keep the momentum going.
He knew that for Mondstadt to truly progress, its financial institutions needed to evolve. Banks weren't just about storing money—they were the lifeline of a growing economy. With plans to introduce electronic transactions, a more efficient bookkeeping system, and even the beginnings of mobile banking, Satoshi was determined to bring Mondstadt's financial system into a new era.
As he approached the bank, he noticed a familiar figure waiting at the entrance. Diluc, with his serious demeanor, stood by the door, nodding at Satoshi as he approached.
"Good morning, Satoshi," Diluc said, his voice deep and calm. "I heard you're planning to make some changes here today."
Satoshi smiled. "Good morning, Diluc. Yeah, I've got some big plans for the bank—plans that could make things a lot more convenient for everyone in Mondstadt."
Diluc nodded, his expression thoughtful. "I see. The bank's efficiency has always been lacking. If you can find a way to improve it, I'm interested in seeing the results. Let's head inside."
They entered the bank together, greeted by the sight of clerks bustling about and customers waiting in line. The building was elegant, with high ceilings and polished wood counters, but it was also busy and chaotic. Satoshi could see the inefficiencies immediately—long lines, clerks manually entering information into dusty ledgers, and piles of paperwork that looked as if they hadn't been touched in weeks.
The bank manager, Elzer, approached them, his face a mix of curiosity and hope. "Ah, Mr. Satoshi, welcome. Master Diluc has told me a bit about your plans. I'd love to hear more about what you have in mind for the bank."
Satoshi smiled, setting his blueprints on a nearby table. "Thanks, Elzer. I'm excited to share my ideas. The first thing we need to do is introduce an electronic ledger system—something that can keep track of all transactions efficiently, without needing mountains of paperwork."
Elzer raised an eyebrow, clearly intrigued. "Electronic, you say? How would that work?"
Satoshi unrolled one of his blueprints, revealing a diagram of a simple computer system. "This is what I'm calling an Electronic Ledger System—or ELS for short. It'll keep track of every transaction made at the bank, store information digitally, and allow us to access any record within seconds. No more rifling through old ledgers."
Diluc leaned over the blueprint, his eyes scanning the design. "And this… ELS, it will make the bank more efficient? Fewer mistakes, faster service?"
Satoshi nodded. "Exactly. It'll also make it easier for people to open accounts, deposit money, or even take out loans. We're also going to introduce something called a debit card—a way for people to access their money without needing to carry it around in Mora form."
Elzer looked amazed. "That sounds incredible. If we could really do all that, it would change how we operate entirely."
Diluc looked at Satoshi, his expression approving. "You have my support, Satoshi. Whatever you need to make this happen, I'll provide."

With Diluc's support, Satoshi got to work. The innovation hub became a flurry of activity as Satoshi, along with Albedo and Lisa, began constructing the components for the ELS. The system would require both electrical power and a central server—a challenge, but not impossible with the resources they now had.
Lisa took charge of the magical aspect, enchanting the server to protect it from external interference. Albedo worked on designing the logic behind the software—a mix of engineering and alchemical formulas that would ensure the system was secure and efficient. Satoshi focused on building the interface, a simple but effective display that would allow bank employees to easily access and update information.
One afternoon, as they were testing the ELS prototype, Jean arrived at the innovation hub, her curiosity piqued by the rumors of the upcoming bank transformation.
"Hello, everyone," Jean greeted, her voice calm but with a hint of excitement. "I heard you're working on something big for the bank. May I take a look?"
Satoshi smiled, gesturing for her to join them. "Of course, Acting Grand Master. We're building an electronic ledger system to modernize the bank—make it more efficient, secure, and easier for everyone to use."
Jean looked over the prototype, her eyes widening slightly as Satoshi explained how it worked. "This… this could truly change how we do things in Mondstadt. Not just at the bank, but for all our records and operations."
Satoshi nodded. "That's the idea. If we can get this up and running at the bank, we can start thinking about other uses for the technology. The possibilities are endless."
Jean smiled, her admiration clear. "You have an incredible vision, Satoshi. The Knights of Favonius will support you in any way we can."

Finally, the day came to unveil the new system at the Mondstadt Bank. A crowd had gathered in the bank lobby, curious about what was happening. Elzer stood by, looking both nervous and excited, while Satoshi, Diluc, and Jean stood in front of the new setup.
Satoshi addressed the crowd, his voice confident. "Thank you all for coming today. We're unveiling a new system here at the Mondstadt Bank—one that will make banking faster, more efficient, and more secure. This is our new Electronic Ledger System, or ELS. With this, you'll be able to access your accounts, make transactions, and manage your finances more easily than ever before."
He demonstrated the system, showing how transactions could be recorded with just a few keystrokes, how information could be retrieved instantly, and how debit cards would allow people to access their money without carrying around heavy bags of Mora.
There were gasps of amazement from the crowd, and people began to murmur excitedly. One of the older citizens, a woman named Greta, raised her hand. "Does this mean we won't have to wait in line for hours anymore?"
Satoshi smiled. "Exactly. With this system, transactions will be much faster, and you'll be able to access your accounts without all the paperwork. We want to make banking a smoother experience for everyone."
Elzer stepped forward, his voice filled with enthusiasm. "We're also introducing debit cards, which will allow you to carry your money safely and make purchases without needing Mora. This is a big step forward for Mondstadt, and we're proud to be part of it."
The crowd erupted in applause, and Satoshi felt a swell of pride. This was what he had been working for—to make life better, easier, and more efficient for everyone in Mondstadt.
Diluc approached Satoshi, a rare smile on his face. "Well done, Satoshi. This will make a real difference for the people here. Your work is truly paying off."
Jean nodded in agreement. "This is a major milestone for Mondstadt. Thank you for your dedication, Satoshi. We're lucky to have you here."
Satoshi felt a warmth in his chest, a sense of fulfillment. He looked around at the people of Mondstadt, at the excitement and hope in their eyes, and knew that this was just the beginning.
"Alright, Mondstadt," he said quietly, his voice filled with determination. "Let's keep moving forward—one innovation at a time."
Your gift is the motivation for my creation. Give me more motivation!
