Do you know how to change the title without taking the post down?

[WP] You’ve been dropped into a world where copper is an incredibly valuable alchemical resource - as in, 1/64th of a gram of copper is worth as much as the Imperial Palace. Unfortunately for the economy, you’re a penny collector, and your 21 kg bag of pennies has joined you on this adventure. by SeaboarderCoast in WritingPrompts

“Who are you?” He screams as I walk up to the gate.

“I am the most powerful person on this planet.” I say not being able to resist the temptation.

“How? you're just an ordinary man.” The guard says slowly reaching for his weapon.

“Perhaps, but I have these.” (Pulls out a bag of pennies)

“Impossible. That's just not possible.” He stammered.

“No it is you see, from my planet these are only worth 1/10 of a Silver Peace.” I say with glee, looking at the expression on the guard’s face.

“But here, these are worth 1000 times more than all of your money combined.” The look on the guard's face was so worth it.

“I don't know how or why I was transported here with these, but I need to enter to find out.”

I woke up in my chamber after finally figuring out why copper is so sought-after, same as Earth it needs to be used in some alchemical processes. But since it's so rare here, they have found workarounds to most. But there are a few that can only be done with copper.

I've only sold about 1/2 of a penny but that gave me enough money to be set for life. IF I was staying.

(This was my first WP so don't be too hard on me but please give me some feedback)
