God of Tricksters

Chapter 818 - Discussion

When the night arrived, they were led to the dining room by the maids.

He found Agata, Maya, Stella, and even Bernard already waiting for him.

"Ehm… Am I late?"

"Nope. The main star should be the last person to arrive." Maya answered with a cheeky grin.

Bernard pointed at the empty seat. "Well, please sit down."

Theo nodded and placed Ava on the table.

"Anyway, let's eat first. I'm going to say something later."

They agreed and finished their food within fifteen minutes.

As soon as everyone put down their tablewares, Bernard finally opened his mouth. "Well, I've heard about your journey from Maya, and it seems to be a very bountiful trip. For that, I need to thank you."

"I was only doing my job." Theo shook his head with a calm expression.

"No need to be polite. You deserve it. If only other Supreme Rank Experts are half as good as you, I'll be satisfied. A group of Supreme Rank can only bring back less than a tenth of what you can bring, you know." Bernard sighed.

"That's because the plans were working in our favor, and we were pretty lucky."

"Humbling yourself too much sounds more like sarcasm, you know."

"I'm merely stating the fact." Theo shrugged.

"Whatever. I'm not here to talk about that. Let's move on to the reward. I can agree to lend you two simulation rooms. As we've agreed previously, it'll be eight hours a day for thirty days."

"Yes," Theo confirmed the previous deal.

"Still, after a rough calculation, the flower will be auctioned this time… The price can range from 800 million to 1.5 billion. Of course, we'll increase it a bit for you because of the hidden danger caused by our lack of information.

"As for the Moniac Dungeon… The weapons are too rusty to be used. Although they're not that good, they can still be reforged. The quality of the material alone is around C to B Rank. There is even one A Rank Weapon. So, it'll give you around two billion.

"Last but not least, the Blue Star Crystal Mine. To be fair, the Blue Star Crystal Mine alone is not that big of a deal. Even if we can't mine some of them, the moment it's discovered by the General Class or even King Class Monster, the entire operation would be doomed.

"However, the fact that you obtained the recognition of the Darkness Order… We'll price this around 6 billion.

"We'll need to cut all this with the tax along with the cost of the simulation rooms. Before giving you the rough number, I believe you intend to get all the skill cards while we get all the material cards, correct?"

Theo confirmed it without hesitation. "Yes."

"In that case, you also need to pay tax for that. So, with the rough calculation, we'll still give you around 3 billion Zils in cash. Though, this is still a rough calculation. The real number is in the process. Just wait until your training is done. We'll give you the actual number.

"Why I'm saying this to you is that… Since you're going to participate in the auction, you should know about your limit."

Theo nodded in agreement. "I understand. Roughly 3 billion Zils, is it?"

"Yeah. Of course, we don't mind paying extra if you still need more money." He smiled.

"I see. I'm good with that term." Theo agreed after some thoughts.

"Good. Then, let's move on to the auction. Maya will bid for you in this auction, but I believe it's better for you to go there in disguise, and Miss Agata can't go with you.

"There's a reason for that here. This type of auction is often filled with youngsters all around the country. Their families often use this type of event to judge their own second generations. How calm they can be, how far they will go, and so on.

"Hence, I'm only sending Maya there along with some guards. Since it's the Temple, the protection is guaranteed by the UN, so I don't need to worry that much.

"All in all, this is the condition for the auction. After hearing this, do you still want to go? I'm sure you can take a look at those competitors in your generation." He smirked.

Theo glanced at Agata, who nodded her head. In the end, he asked, "Are you sure you want me to look around? Maybe someone has the ability to grab my attention? What if I go with them instead of you?"

Bernard smirked, not scared of Theo's threat. He stated with confidence, "Boy. Just know this. In terms of might and assets value, my Star and Maya's Starry Groups indeed have some challengers. But if we're talking about cash flow, we're the best. What? Do you want to be paid with stock instead of cash?

"Do you think it's that easy to give you shares? No. That's why good cash flow allows you to do so many things."

"Well…" Theo looked away as he couldn't refute it.

"Also, there's one more thing you need to know."

"What is it?" Theo raised his eyebrows, wondering if he wanted to brag about something else. However, his answer was certainly beyond his imagination.

He stated as though it was a compliment. "There's no one as arrogant and as prodigal as my daughter! Those second generations can't hold a candle against my sweetheart!"

"!!" Maya couldn't help but summon her pistol. She rose from her seat and pointed at her father. "What the fuck?"

Bernard still maintained his poker face as he added, "So, you are not?"

"How dare you compare me to those trash. They can only use their family money, not make it themselves! I feel insulted if you compare me with them!"

"See?" Bernard smiled. "With my tomboy daughter, no one can bully you there. I just hope my daughter won't bully them too much."

"That… I can see." Theo nodded in agreement.

"What?" Maya widened her eyes and turned around, staring at Theo in disbelief.

Theo looked away, not saying anything.

Maya's eyebrows twitched. It was clear that she was pissed, but she had no words to retort and ended up sitting down.

"Anyway, that's the condition."

"Okay. It's fine."

"Then, to the last topic." Bernard raised one finger… "The Griffith Family has entered Italy."
