Chapter 94: Tier 9 Water-element Magic Scroll

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As soon as the amethyst card appeared, a trace of desire appeared in Thor’s golden pupils.

As a member of the Dragon race, Thor had no resistance against such shiny items.

Hermione and Autumn were didn’t care much about such a thing.

One was only interested in the thrill of stealing and did not have much interest in treasures.

The other was originally already a noble of the demon race, and the wealth she possessed was also fitting of her status.

Moreover, the two of them were also curious.

Just the gold coins that Thor had placed in the castle alone had already piled up into a mountain, why was she still so greedy for money.

Other than it being the natural attribute of the dragon race, it could only be blamed on Thor’s ability to continue to sublimate this talent.

Normally, when a Dragon had snatched enough gold coins, it would lie on top of them and sleep.

However, Thor had never done this before. Maybe it was because she still felt that she had not earned enough gold coins.

That was why Thor was looking so greedily at the amethyst card in Old Thompson’s hand.

“There are more than 500 amethyst coins in here. If converted to gold coins, it would be more than 50,000 gold coins, which is all my savings. This amethyst card is can be used anywhere on the continent, the money can be taken out at any bank. Now, I’ll give it to you to buy our freedom.”

Old Thompson held the amethyst card in his hand with some reluctance.

His heart ached a little.

This was all the income he had accumulated over the years at the Saint Bauhinia Magic Academy, but now he had to give it all to others.

He was somewhat reluctant to part with it.

More than 500 amethyst coins, more than 50,000 gold coins?

Hearing this number, the surrounding students were shocked.

There were many students who came from noble backgrounds. There were even princes and princesses from some countries.

500 amethyst coins was not a small amount, rather, it was a lot.

One had to know that a small lord like Eddie only collected 100 gold coins a year in taxes.

Even Odom, the knight closest to the Saint-rank that Hermione had stolen from, only had more than 10,000 gold coins in his small treasury.

This Old Thompson, an ordinary Tier 9, had five times more gold coins than Odom?

Why and how?

Actually, this was all because there were too many ways to earn money in the Magic Academy.

There was a saying that even a pig could fly when standing in the draught, let alone a Tier 9 instructor.

As long as he used the reputation of the Saint Bauhinia Magic Academy, many would want to cooperate with Old Thompson.

Even if they need the cooperation, they were willing to spend money to build a good relationship with him.

Who knows, perhaps they might send their children here to attend school one day?

Therefore, over the years, Old Thompson had amassed a lot of wealth.

Just the wealth of gold coins he had alone had surpassed the wealth of most Tier 9 powerhouses.

However, this also made some other instructors who could not bear to watch this continue report it to the Dean.

It was very likely that his path of amassing wealth would be cut off, which was precisely why he had to help his son, Little Thompson, to get a high position.

Otherwise, when he was audited in the future, it wouldn’t be so easy to do such a thing.

However, the plan that he had planned all along failed after meeting Thor, Hermione, and Autumn.

Now, let alone letting his son get a high position, he couldn’t even save his own life.

He could only quickly cut off his own flesh to let himself get away.

Seeing Old Thompson’s first move was already a killer move, other than Thor, who wanted nothing more than to directly nod her head, Hermione and Autumn both had a grasp of the old man’s wealth.

This old man had taken out all his gold coins in one move.

That could only mean one thing: there was something more valuable on this old man that he hadn’t taken out.

Hermione stretched out her small hand and took the card from Old Thompson’s hand.

She used her magic power to confirm that there were indeed more than 500 amethyst coins in the card.

She was quite familiar with doing this.

Old Thompson was taken aback when he saw this.

You are a Tier 9 powerhouse, how can you be so familiar with the technique of thieves…

One had to know that amethyst cards had passwords, he was even prepared to use the password as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the other party.

She immediately broke the password of the card after getting it?

What the hell was this!

Old Thompson looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Looking at Hermione’s practiced movements, he wanted to say something, but he closed his mouth again.

He was afraid that if he said it out loud, the knife would be on his neck in the next second.

After Hermione finished checking the amethyst card, she handed it to Thor.

Thor immediately took it. There was no need to doubt Thor’s favoritism towards these things.

“It seems that Thor likes this very much. Ok, we’ll take it.”

Hermione knew Thor’s character, so she naturally took away the amethyst card first.

“Then we can leave now, right?”

Seeing that the other part had taken his money, Old Thompson was about to carry Leighton from the ground and leave.

However, Hermione’s voice came at the right time.

“Who said you can leave?”

“You! Are you not going to keep your word? Are you not abiding by the spirit of contract?”

Old Thompson’s tone was extremely furious!

He had clearly given them money, but these people actually didn’t keep their word!?

How could he not be angry?

“We didn’t say we wouldn’t keep our word. It’s just that these things aren’t enough to exchange for the freedom of the two of you.”

Hermione had an unsatisfied look on her face.

She even shook her head in harmony with her tone.

This made old Thompson doubt his life.

Get this right, 500 amethyst coins are 50,000 gold coins. Even if three Tier 9 instructors in the academy got together, they might not even be able to raise that much money.

A small lord like Eddie might not be able to raise that much even if he saved for hundreds of years.

And now it wasn’t enough for him to buy the freedom of two people?

This wasn’t a deal! This was extortion, right?

Old Thompson expressed his objection towards Hermione’s words, but his objection was invalid.

Who told you to take the initiative to attack them?

Hermione was originally staying put in Autumn’s laboratory with Thor.

She was just waiting for Autumn to finish packing up her things, then they would steal a stone door and slip away.

Now they had it good, they had become high-profile.

This made it more difficult for them to steal the stone door.

Even though Hermione was confident that she could still get what she wanted, Old Thompson should still have to pay the compensation fees for their traumatization, labor, operation, and so on, right?

Hermione was very interested in taking money from other people’s pockets.

So, was it reasonable for her to ask for more? Of course it was reasonable.

Anyway, your life is in my hands. Think about it and act.

That being said, Old Thompson didn’t know about any of these.

From his perspective, Hermione was like a little devil, trying to squeeze his spatial ring dry.

“All this bad luck must’ve been accumulated for eight lifetimes, for me to be so unlucky!”

Old Thompson looked at Hermione who had been staring at him. He knew that if he didn’t take out something more, even the amethyst coins might go down the drain.

That was all of his savings over the years.

Old Thompson wanted to cry, but the knife was still on his neck, so he slowly opened his spatial ring, and took out a water-blue magic scroll.

The surface of this magic scroll was still exquisite. It didn’t look like paper, but some kind of beast skin that had magic power.

Old Thompson didn’t hide the magic fluctuation, he even deliberately activated it.

In fact, Hermione had sensed it from the moment it was taken out.

This was a water-element magic scroll, and a Tier 9 one at that.
