Chapter 436 - 436: Do You Want to Borrow Money From Me?
Must they squeeze all the newbies who had recently earned a large sum of money out?
And what was going on with Edmond?
Who else but you knew that Iâd earned a sum of money?
He cursed in his heart.
On the surface, Matthew smiled and gave him the gold coin that he had lost to Edmond.
âI told you that you would definitely spend all that money within three days,â said Edmond, chuckling. Roderick suddenly said,
âEdmond, letâs make a bet.
â This child just came out from Soriaâs place. Letâs bet on how much debt Soria has on him.
âNeither of us will use prophecy. Letâs see who can guess more accurately. How about that?â
Edmond looked at him with a smile. He then glanced at Matthew and suddenly said decisively,
âI bet he owes at least 500,000!â
Roderick shook his head and said,
â Youâre too conservative. I think itâs at least a million!
â You and I both know what Soria is capable of. Before this, the lowest debt recorded by a mage who walked out of the Crystal Palace was 300,000.
âIt looks like you want me to win.â
He watched as the two legendary big shots made a bet in front of him.
Matthewâs forehead immediately broke out in sweat.
He asked carefully,
âWhat if the actual number is far from what the two of you have guessed?â
Edmond immediately became serious. âDonât tell me you owe her more than two million?â
Matthew didnât know what to say.
Roderick immediately pulled him back.
âDonât try to get information out of this child. Just tell us the truth.â
Edmond said casually,
âIf the real answer is really different from what we guessed, then weâll give both of our bets to him.â
Roderick nodded, indicating that he had no objections.
Under the gaze of the two of them.
Matthew said with difficulty,
âI owe 30,000 gold coins on credit for the time being, but I didnât borrow anything. I can pay it off with the money I have back home.â
The two Legendary mages looked at each other in disbelief.
âSilly child, how can you let go of the opportunity to reach the top in one step? âDo you know how many people begged Soria to see them, but they couldnât get a chance to see Margaret?
â Although we always tease you about not getting into debt with her, thatâs just a joke. Even Teacher Isabelle would encourage you to solidify a few more spells with Soria. This is a rare opportunity.â
Edmond looked rather anxious.
He seemed to genuinely feel that Matthew had wasted a great opportunity.
Matthew could only maintain a smile and explain in a low voice that the matter was a foregone conclusion.
In the end.
Under the regretful gazes of the two legendary mages.
Matthew also received the bets from the two Legendary mages.
They were two magic gold coins with their portraits printed on them.
Gold coins contained unique magic powers.
The two of them did not explain how to use them, so Matthew could only put them in his pocket like ordinary gold coins.
After bidding farewell to the two Legends, Matthew was finally able to return to Rolling Stone Town. He rushed to the lordâs manor. âRheagar, I need to talk to you.â
He went straight to the point.
Rheagar, who was reading the newspaper in his pyjamas, did not even raise his head.
â Forget about practising spells. Forget about borrowing money.â
âI need 30,000 gold coins. Itâs urgent.â
Matthew said.
Seeing his serious attitude, Rheagar did not joke. He only frowned and said,
âDidnât you just get a sum of money a few days ago? You spent it all so quickly?!
âHowever, itâs not impossible if you want to borrow money, but we have to write it down clearly in black and white. In addition, Iâll have to charge you some interest. After all, weâre using the treasury of Rolling Stone Town.â
Matthew asked in surprise, âDidnât you just get a sum of money a few days ago?
You spent it so quickly?!â
Before Rheagar could answer.
A cute little head popped out from the corridor. âMatthew, do you want to borrow money from me?
âI got a lot of pocket money recently.
âI wonât charge you interest.â
Sif looked at him with her big, sparkling eyes.
Behind the desk.
Rheagarâs expression immediately turned painful.
As he wished, he received an interest-free loan of 30,000 gold coins from the lordâs manor.
Matthewâs footsteps became lighter as he returned to the oak forest.
He was in a good mood as he finished planting the oak tree for the day.
Then, he started to make tombstones.
At noon.
A little black cat jumped into the cemetery.
He came before Matthew and transformed into his human form.
Matthew looked at him in surprise. He looked around but did not find any trace of the little white cat.
Eli said to him with a complicated expression, âMatthew, I have to tell you something.
âSomething very important.â
