I don't know why a 27 years old enterprise employee couldn't come up with anything better than amnesia. If someone else told him that, would he believe it? He was a network manager. Let's say something went badly wrong in the corporation's intranet. He could track it down to the actions of a single employee, but that employee claimed he's suffering from a memory loss and can't explain anything. Would he have believed it? Bollocks, he wouldn't believe a single word of it. But here he's using it as an excuse.

Dude should have told that up until now he was working for a billionaire who really wouldn't want their name to spread around and had made him sign an NDA. After years of working solely for them, he receive his payment in precious metals (because getting it in credits would be the same as announcing the employer's name). Now he's a freelancer. Nobody knows him because he was previously only working for such a rich person privately. He could even tell the lady officer to make some guesses, though he won't confirm anything. I'm sure the high officer in fact could imagine a few suitable billionaires immediately.

Forget it, it's the author who couldn't come up with anything better. Even I could, and I'm not a bloody author.

Just in case anyone wondering why Elma said her name has more character, it is because they were basing it in Katakana, エルマ(Elma) ヒロ(Hiro), would be nice if the scanlator explain this but I understand that feelof wanting to gatekeep against weeblets.

You say that, but I still wouldn't let that elf handle the finances of the mercenary group. I don't trust her head for mathematics.

Rereading this made me realize clear as day why he had a warped sense of money, LOOK AT THAT RARE METAL LOOT
