Chapter 398: Gossip and Crazy Frogman Translator: Lonelytree Matthew asked curiously, “Is Lady Isabelle good at earning money?” “Of course!” Margaret immediately replied, ” Legend has it that her wealth is enough to buy three alliances! “Later, this legend was heard by Lord Edmond. He quickly came out to refute the rumour, saying that there were definitely more than three!” Matthew was amazed. Margaret continued, Do you know what happened between Lady Isabelle and my mentor, Lady Soria?” Matthew said blankly, “Never heard of it.” Margaret said with relish, ” Back then, during the Scar of the Dead project, Lady Isabelle proposed a solution of Mordenkainen’s scalpel, which was initially agreed upon by the other two Heavenly Mages. “However, during the implementation stage of the project, Ms. Soria was the first to betray her. From then on, the feud between the two of them was formed. “But then again, Ms. Soria did this for a reason. “The disagreements between the two of them could be traced back to when the Calamity Mage were still around. “However, at first, they could still maintain their relationship as fake sisters on the surface. “While Lady Soria was slaying the dragon, something happened that made her very dissatisfied with Isabelle.” Matthew’s urge for gossip was also ignited. “What exactly happened?” Margaret snorted. ‘ As you know, Ms. Soria’s teacher is Mr. Capital, and Capital’s spells have always been known for their low cost-performance ratio in the Alliance. Some mages even ridiculed his spells for being flashy. The most famous Capital’s Dragon Slaying Spear is what they criticise the most. “In order to clarify this point, Ms. Soria began to frequently slay dragons. During this process, she only used a few spells that cost a lot of money. Most of the time, she used her own spells. “However, the purpose of her doing this was to prove to everyone that slaying a dragon would not be a loss. “But in the end, she found that she still lost money!” Matthew reacted a little. “Is the reason for the loss related to my mentor?” Margaret nodded with certainty. ‘ When Isabelle heard that Soria was slaying dragons, her first reaction was to run to the remaining Chromatic Dragons and warn them that they were about to be slaughtered.” Matthew looked surprised. “Is she doing this to protect the dragon?” Margaret sneered. “You’re too naive. Think. Why would Isabelle be the most profitable woman in the Alliance? Every time she found a dragon, she would leave after giving a warning and loot the dragon nests.” Matthew didn’t expect this to happen. ‘ This resulted in every dragon Soria slaughtered after that being an Empty Nest Dragon! “The dead dragons can’t speak, and the living dragons think that Soria robbed the wealth of these dragon nests! “For a long time after that, Madam Soria was very depressed. She carried the blame on her back and investigated where the wealth in the dragon nests went.” Margaret felt indignant for her mentor. Matthew hesitated and said, “In the end, did Ms. Soria find out the truth?” Margaret shook her head. Lacer, Isabelle probably couldn’t help but want to show off. At Madam Soria’s 100th birthday party, she gave half of the wealth of the White Dragon’s nest as a congratulatory gift. It was not until that night that the unsolved mystery of where the dragon’s treasure vault that was once circulated among the higher-ups of the alliance went was revealed.” Matthew asked carefully, “Did the two of them fight on the spot?” Margaret shook her head. ” You underestimate the ability of women to maintain a superficial relationship. They even shared a strawberry cake that night. Isabelle also had an explanation. Robbing dragons is one of the common hobbies of Legendary mages. She can claim that this hobby has been active more frequently during that period of time. Since then, their relationship, which was already unpleasant, became even worse. That’s why my mentor’s temporary betrayal led to the follow-up of the Scar of the Dead project.” Matthew nodded. It was quite interesting to discuss the gossip of these important people, but he would not completely believe Margaret’s one-sided story. Margaret must have gotten the news from Soria. He was there for the popcorn. He did not have to believe everything. If he did, he would be letting down the 9,000 + knowledge points in his account! ‘ All in all, if you have 10% of Isabelle’s ability, you will definitely be able to write better homework.” Margaret looked at Matthew with a burning gaze. Matthew cleared his throat. “Speaking of which, I think I need to take a few days off.” Margaret’s gaze instantly turned hostile. “You can take leave! “But you must hand in your homework! “Hand in your homework or keep me as your mistress. You have to choose!” After leaving the Cauldron House, Matthew made another trip to the liege’s residence and informed Rheagar that the crusade against the Order of Withering would be postponed until the next morning. He had no choice. He had to correct his pronunciation in chanting as soon as possible while Margaret’s voice was still echoing in his mind. Matthew’s initial plan for the crash course was to walk his own path firmly and absorb the essence of Margaret’s lessons. However, he gradually realized….
