However, rather than moving forward in life, the Furt Family has been reduced to debt in order to maintain a lavish lifestyle.

The Furt Family's stated to have incurred a debt of three hundred gold coins according to Arche which she has been attempting to repay. However, Arche decided that her time as a worker would be over after the next job, and would take her younger sisters with her and cut off all financial support to her parents.[2]
Her declaration didn't seem to have reached her parents, as they are content to live a lie, spending money on unneeded luxuries, stating it was an investment once the emperor died. The debt collector later visited the Furt Family to loan them another hundred coins, but by then loaner had decided not to loan any more money from that point on. Instead, he would liquidize the Furt's remaining assets to pay off the loan when the due date came.[3]
Overlord's author, Kugane Maruyama, stated on his Twitter that, after their assets were liquidized and Arche failed to return from her job, Sir and Madame Furt resorted to selling both of their youngest daughters, Ureirika and Kuuderika, into slavery to begin paying off their debts and both girls eventually died from overwork.
