Lord of Arcane

Chapter 118 Elf Dance
Xia Duo didn't believe this anymore, and the news had spread to the apprentices in the Master Tower. Even though Edric's background was slightly special, but being able to say it so bluntly meant that it was probably an advertisement.

"Edrich, has there ever been a 'dance of elves' there in the past?"

"this--"

Edric hesitated, but under the gaze of Xia Duo and others, he still told the truth, "Well, I admit, every year!"

"Every year?" Dean and the others widened their eyes, and when they looked at Edric again, it was as if they were looking at a liar!
If it is available every year, how is it possible that only a few people have seen it, and if many people have seen it, how come they haven't heard of it?

"Trust me, what I say is true!"

Seeing that his companions didn't believe him, Eldridge became incoherent in a hurry, "My brother watched it last year, and he said that there were really elves in it. I believe my brother won't lie to me?"

"Your brother is—"

"His brother is a student of the lord—Mage Adrian." Xia Duo answered.

"Edrich's elder brother is the lord's student?!"

The three of Dean were quite shocked. They knew that Edric might have a background, but they didn't expect it to be such a background. Of course, the lord's student was nothing. Edric's real background was actually his father, the lord's pocketbook.

However, in the eyes of the three of Dean, the endorsement of the lord's students is enough. They don't even read the book now, and stare at Edric closely, hoping that he will reveal more about the dancing of the elves.

And now Xia Duo also thinks this elf's hot dance is very interesting, and he really wants to see it. He has already seen the cold elf, let's see what the enthusiastic elf looks like!
"Edrich, when can I see the performance of the elves?"

"At noon tomorrow, there will be less than an hour."

"It will cost money, right?" Xia Duo said with certainty, the purpose of spreading the news to the Mage Tower must be for the purpose of making money, and it is estimated that it is not a small amount, so he asked, "Is there enough funding for the study group? "

After more than half a month of answering questions in their study group, after deducting the cost of borrowing books and renting the mage's laboratory, they still have a balance of more than 200 gold coins.

If this is not enough, then Xia Duo will never go to see any elf dance, even if it is a group of elves, he will not go.

Hearing Xia Duo's inquiry, Eldridge immediately understood that Xia Duo wanted to go, and quickly replied, "Enough! Enough! If you just watch for a while, each person only needs 10 gold coins, but if you want to stay there and watch the whole If so, you need some wine, I have inquired about it, the five of us can order a bottle of Blue Dream for 50 gold coins, and the total is only 100 gold coins."

"talent--?!"

Dean elongated his tone. He was born in an ordinary farmer's family and he knew the concept of 100 gold coins. His family, including farming and handyman, could only earn 100 gold coins a year after hard work, not including expenses.

Although their study group earned hundreds of gold coins in less than a month, the money largely depended on Xia Duo. Without Xia Duo, it would be impossible for him to make such money.

A person who is so penny-pinching about copper coins really doesn't want to waste 100 gold coins on pleasure, Dean couldn't help but look at Xia Duo, the only person who can stop him now is Xia Duo.

"Xia Duo, what do you think? 100 gold coins is too much!"

In fact, Xia Duo was moved when he heard that it only cost 100 gold coins. It was not that 100 gold coins were not good, but that this "off-campus activity" could just be used as a team building activity for the study group.

By the way, it can also satisfy my curiosity. Xia Duo, who holds more than 2000 gold coins in his hand, thinks it is quite worth it.

"I think we can go and have a look. After all, it only happens once a year. Besides, we are not so short of money now. We have to spend what we need. That's the decision!"

Xia Duo directly decided on tomorrow's itinerary, Edric, Sammy, and Devine immediately showed joy, and Dean could only nod in distress.

"Okay, let's all go eat, Dean stay."

In this regard, although Edric and the others were a little puzzled and didn't know what was going on with Chateau Liudian, they all knew that Chateau had always been fair and impartial, so they left first as if they had something private to say.

For the two remaining, Dean was a little embarrassed, for fear that Xia Duo would blame him for his previous performance, so he couldn't help but become cautious, "Xia Duo, what do you want from me?"

"It's nothing serious, I just want you to help me."

Dean breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately agreed, "What's the matter, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse."

"Hehe, don't be so nervous, you are all a study group companion, and I won't let you do your work for nothing, I will pay you. As for what it is—"

After a short pause, Xia Duo continued, "I want you to copy a few books for me. I will pay you 20 gold coins for each copy, and I will pay for the materials."

"I--"

Dean knew that Xia Duo was helping him, otherwise, how could he be paid so much for transcribing books for others!

But he couldn't accept it. Being able to join the study group has already gained the greatest benefits. How can he be greedy anymore? But just when he wanted to refuse, Xia Duo said:

"Think about how difficult it was for your family members outside before you became a full-time member. The income from the study group cannot be used casually. I think it should be very difficult for you usually."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dean's eyes turned red. Not only was it not easy, after the orc war, he once left the mage's tower and handed over all the money he had to his family.

Others need family subsidies to come to the Mage Tower, but he is subsidizing his family. If it weren't for the study group, he might not really be able to persevere.

"I will not give up on any member of the study group, so accept it with peace of mind, and if you feel sorry, perform well in the group!"

"Xia Duo, I—"

"Needless to say, it's settled." Xia Duo took out two 100 gold coin exchange vouchers from his personal purse and stuffed them into Dean's hands. Be ready after the festival."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Dean's crying appearance, he left.

In fact, Xia Duo was still a little negligent about the status of the members of the study group. If an organization wants to grow and develop, in addition to core interests, the warmth of some small favors is also a lubricant for organizational relationships.

It's a pity that his current reputation is not enough, and he can only do so much.

If he were the lord today, maybe Dean would fall on his knees and offer his loyalty.Xia Duo never hides his dark psychology, but he is not a ruthless person. After getting along for a long time, plants and trees have feelings, let alone people?
Helping Dean can't be said to be so dark or sentimental. It can only be said that it is a natural choice that is beneficial to both parties and the organization.
