Matthew asked readily, âHow much should I charge?â
Edmond asked,
â Are you going to give them Knowledge Points for this emergency project?â Matthew shook his head.
Previously, he was not clear about the market. No wonder he was called â Merciful Matthew.â
He couldnât be a sucker forever. âThen letâs just charge everyone 22000 gold coins.â
Edmond sincerely suggested,
â Thatâs more or less what they can afford. Itâs not to the extent that theyâll be severely injured. If itâs too little, youâll be looked down upon by others. Itâs not appropriate to charge too much.
âYou can keep 20000 of it yourself. Leave the 2000 to me.â
Matthewâs expression was a little subtle.
Edmond looked at him with a half-smile.
âAfter you give me the 2000, Iâll give it to Teacher Isabelle. Donât forget where your status and wealth came from, child.â
Matthew was ashamed of his dirty thoughts.
His first reaction was that Edmond wanted to swallow this portion of the profitsâŠ
âMy apologies, Mr. Edmond.â
Matthew apologized sincerely.
Edmond was practically teaching him the ways of the world in the Alliance step by step, which was actually very rare.
Matthew thought carefully.
All his resources and wealth came from the Al title and the 10,000 knowledge points.
All of this was given to him by Isabelle.
It was obviously inappropriate not to show respect to her after earning money.
âIn the future, every time I earn a sum of money, I have to contribute a portion to her!
â And I must not forget big shots like Edmond and Margaret. Giving gifts during the holidays is a piece of cake, but the connection might come in handy in the future.â
Matthew felt that he had learned a lot.
However, his soul seemed to have been corrupted a little.
This made him feel a little conflicted.
Not long after, the effect of the groupâs immobilizing spell disappeared, and the soldiers rushed over noisily.
However, the two of them had already returned to the treehouse through the portal.
The treehouse was bustling with activity.
Mages were good at finding fun for themselves.
Matthew and Edmond glanced at each other, and after confirming that nothing had happened, they left.
An hour later.
Matthew returned to the West Cove Farm.
âHow did the interrogation go?â
Matthew asked.
Lorraine shrugged.
He answered my questions faster than the little girl who threw herself at me.â Henry revealed an excited smile.
âLord Matthew, Iâm sincerely loyal. Please give me a chance to be loyal!â
Matthew stared into his eyes. â Then do you know anything about the Red Dragon Khuzulas?â
Henry looked confused.
âI donât know, my lord,â he replied.
Matthew looked at Zeller.
The latterâs lie detector was still in effect.
Zeller shook his head gently.
âHeâs not lying.â
Matthew pondered for a moment, then told everyone a part of the conversation between him and Edmond.
When Richard and Zeller heard that the lord of Red Mountain was actually a red dragon, they were immediately on guard.
Only Lorraine looked interested.
He slapped his thigh excitedly.
âI knew something big was about to happen in Rolling Stone Town! Looks like it has something to do with that red dragon!â
Matthew looked at Lorraine.
â Can you find out the origin of that red dragon from your sources? His name is Khuzulas. It is said that he has been sleeping for decades, but for some reason, he has appeared in the Red Mountain recently.â
Lorraine narrowed his eyes slightly, and his ears started to twitch.
âLet me try.â
Ten minutes later.
Only then did he exit from that state, somewhat exhausted.
âI think I know where that red dragon came from.â Lorraineâs tone was a little strange.
Matthew asked, âDid someone wake him up?â
The slumber of a dragon had always been a cycle of a hundred years. During this period, if it were not artificially awakened, the dragon would rarely take the initiative to break out of its slumber.
Matthew suspected that there was another mastermind behind Khuzulasâs awakening!
As expected, Lorraine replied, âSomeone woke it up.â Matthew asked anxiously, âWho is it? Evil organization? Evil Art Master?â
Loraine said with a strange expression, âItâs you.â Matthew immediately revealed a surprised expression. âMe?â
âWhen did I wake up Khuzulas?â
Lorraine seemed to be trying to sort out the ins and outs of the matter by singing.
However, Matthew rudely interrupted him.
âGet to the point.â
Alright, Matthew, Iâll only give you face. Next time, donât stop me from singing.â
Lorraine looked a little unhappy but explained patiently,
âI learned from the legends of the Underdark that Khuzulas was a red dragon that had just entered the youth stage. His strength grew rapidly, and so did his âBefore he woke up, he found a very hidden place in the Underdark to hide himself and had his last long sleep before he reached puberty.
âHowever, a sudden earthquake struck him, and the falling stones woke the grumpy young red dragon from his sleep.
âAfter waking up, the flustered and exasperated Khuzulas spent a long time removing the stone from his body.
âAfter that, he wreaked havoc in the undercity and even destroyed a gathering place of ghosts.
âA few days later, Khuzulas, who had just discovered his anger, found the exit to the surface. With his extraordinary talent, he successfully integrated into human society with the help of his shapeshifting spell.
âAfter learning that the Red Mountain Lord was secretly recruiting soldiers,
Khuzulas decisively took action..â
