Chapter 85.5: Betting

"Oh right... my master Nyx killed him in one hit, a weakass old man like him should have just died a long time ago..! Hahaha" Isabella laughed happily.

"Wh-what..?"

The room went quite with this news and murmured they couldn't believed it, who was Isabella's master, Nyx they have never heard of him before.

"And I have another good news... because I was tasked by my master with a mission here... another one please!" Isabella drank another glass of whine.

"What more good news it..?" Everyone asked Isabella.

"I want to use your man power and want to post, "Take every rice stalks or even grains and I will buy them each at one bronze" Hahaha isn't that so good for everyone? And how about this I would probably go bankrupt if I did that I'll just say I'll buy one sack for ten gold coins?" Isabella said while gulping another glass of whine.

"Post that up manager..!" Isabella hurriedly left the mercenary guild.

"T-ten gold coins for rice stalks..? That's crazy..!"

"Can't we just plunder village's that have them..?"

"You dimwit..! Only nobles and villages under a certain noble have rice fields because the land of the east is so far and smuggling rice is as hard as smuggling elves in east to the western lands..!"

"But... if we buy rice with stalks wouldn't they be priced at how much they sell at market?"

"Then do you know how much is one sack of rice?"

"Ahem, one sack of rice is only priced at ine silver coins" The bartender said.

"Ohhh... then aren't we rich then..?!!"

"Then everyone! Listen... why don't we bet... whoever has the highest income in this mission will have to give us free drinks and foods for a whole night..!!"

"Yeah..! Whooohoo!!"

The mercenaries picked up their weapons and readied to pack everything by tomorrow and investigate where to buy rice that still has rice stalks.

Meanwhile back in the black market Nyx saw mny diverse group of magical beast ranging from A class even ro S class magical beast and even some SS class Wyverns that adventurers has managed to trade off to.

"Hmm... there are many good pets here... but I'm not seeing any magical beast that could suit my taste..." Nyx was looking left and right but wasn't able to see any good beast for him, he wasn't convinced it was good to buy this expensive magical beast.

"Pets..? Uhh... wait let me ask some personnels here..." Bliss said as she saw Nyx wasn't interested in this magical beast that even some prestigious adventurers want to buy them.

Meanwhile Rondel who was a poor man had many magical beast that he wanted to buy.

Nyx saw him having tempting look at them and wanted to reward this man, he was a hard working man and just follow Nyx to gain some money for his family as he stopped dealing with the black market for five years but life is hard so that's why he took and agree to Nyx to be his guide.

"You can choose what you want you know..? Choose wisely..." Nyx said to Rondel as he tapped his shoulders.

Rondel had a glassful of saliva as he gulp.

'I need to choose one... I see a giant red scar salamander a triple A class magical beast, a steel wing... Hmm..? Why does this steel wing seems to be so ferocious and looked more like a dragon than having the normal beak of a bird... I wonder what bloodline this one has'

Nyx and the party was inside the royal districts renowned auction house for magical beast.

Inside was a spacious area it didn't look good as the outside was because it was full of cages with small and giant magical beast.
