Welcome to the Magic Tower - Welcome to the Magic Tower chapter 90

90 – Betting

I really wanted to become a slave.

Thankfully, however, he was released right away after explaining the situation well.

Although I had to give a little money in the name of compensation for damage, it was a much better ending than the impoverished drama that was going on in my head.

Since both Xiaofang and I were broke, Yuhanna paid the bail instead.

‘Are you losing your energy because you were ripped off?’

She stared blankly at Yuhanna, her shoulders drooping. She was always full of energy, but as soon as her childhood friend crossed the portal, she lost her energy.

Why is that? As I looked at her and inferred her cause, her face gradually turned red. He muttered while avoiding my gaze.

“…… Stop noticing, you fool.”

No, I haven’t noticed. I wasn’t blind enough to say

, So I just shut her mouth.

She took her gaze away from her, feeling that it was somehow burdensome for me to stare at her.

Following Xiao Fang, who was staring blankly at the ceiling next to her, I was also far away.

──A celestial auction house where all things in the universe intersect and trade.

I was definitely going to go to Earth, but I fell into a strange place. It is clear that it is a strange place, as well as the friend I met inside the cage of a space crocodile.

As soon as you pay bail and get released, you’re immediately kicked out of the auction house, saying you don’t deserve it.

For that reason, we were sitting in a lonely, cold hallway waiting for the event to end.

I mean, you can return to Earth only after the auction ends. There were no restrictions whatsoever.

It was a great thing that we forcibly entered the auction house, but we weren’t being held by force, as we could get out as soon as we wanted.

I was just waiting for someone.

For a while, the three of them squatted side by side, staring blankly across the hallway.

Chooses and cheers were repeated dozens of times, and at some point, the sound of buzzing began to approach.

…… Oh, is it finally over?

By the time I saw In-young in front of me, we brushed our butts off and got up.

An octopus-headed alien, a race with animal ears, a guy made up only of electricity, and so on.

Mysterious and diverse guys pass by. And the guys also looked at us curiously.

Well, even when I think about it, the guys who rode crocodiles to the auction hall seemed amazing.

A situation where each other looks at each other strangely.

‘Hmm, it’s a beautiful meeting place.’

From noble mtl dot com

I nodded my head in admiration for that amazing fact, then found a familiar doll in the crowd and waved happily.

“Hyeyoung!”

The blonde witch, who had her head down, trembled as if she was trying to pass us by, ignoring us. I’m covering her face with a mask, but I wasn’t such a mean person that I couldn’t recognize my precious comrade.

“Hyeyoung! Look here! I’m your best friend!”

Shin Hye-young, restless at her powerful voice, eventually broke through her crowd and came to us standing in the corner of her hallway. The hesitant guy spoke quietly without taking off her mask.

“…… Let’s move right away.”

First, I nodded my head willingly and looked at them to ask for their opinion. But in the meantime, what did I do wrong?

Yuhanna twitched her eyebrows and looked at me gently, while Xiaofang muttered with a shocked expression.

“…… Wasn’t I your best friend?”

Originally, the best in the world were many laws.

***

We moved to the cafeteria inside the building.

Holding on to drinks and chairs one by one, they stared into each other’s faces.

Yuhanna glared at Shin Hye-young, probably because she was her co-worker she hadn’t seen in a while, and Xiao Fang couldn’t take her eyes off her, as if she was happy with her new colleague.

And Shin Hye-young only looked at me with her shoulders shrunken, as if she was overwhelmed by the energy they inadvertently radiated.

Ah, did I have to introduce myself?

Belatedly arriving at such an idea, I smiled and pointed at them.

“This is Yuhanna. Have you ever walked past it before? He’s my childhood friend And the friend next to me…… Uh.”

Suddenly I can’t remember the name.

[Golden Fire Spirit is active]

“Oh, that’s right. It’s Xiao Fang.”

After saying that, both Xiaofang and Yuhanna widened their eyes.

It looks like he heard something surprising.

On the other hand, the blond red-eyed wizard tilted his head as if he was not sure.

So, while thinking about how to introduce her, I recalled her memories of her ex before, and added.

“Another best friend.”

When he said that, Xiao Fang put on a sad expression.

‘No, what am I going to do?’

Could it be that she wants to be introduced as a soon-to-be-married lover?

The woman I love.

I thought about that option for a while. And I decided to postpone the announcement a little bit.

‘…… Because the explanation seems endless.’

I thought it would be shocking to say ‘I plan to marry these two together’ as soon as we met after a long time.

So let’s talk about the important things right now.

After making up my mind, I spoke to the blonde, red-eyed witch with a serious expression.

“Please lend me some money!”

“…… Yes?”

And Shin Hye-young frowned.

***

As humans from all dimensions come and go, there were various facilities in the heavenly auction house, and there were naturally gambling halls for primitive competitions.

The gambling hall was crowded with people taking a break because the auction had just ended.

In other words, it was an opportunity to make money!

“…… No, is this correct?”

Of course, Shin Hye-young was not entirely sure.

I knew that the man in front of me had a great talent for copying money, but isn’t that just a story about betting like stocks?

It was a story on a completely different level from gambling skills or betting.

“Wasn’t it more money than that? Even the last time I entered the dungeon, I used it profusely.”

As the witch whispered in his ear, Lee Jin-woo muttered bitterly.

“I wasted everything.”

“… ….”

Shin Hye-young’s trust in her mind went down a notch.

Lee Jin-woo also realized that his appearance was shabby.

To think I had to reach out to the wallet of a friend I hadn’t seen in a while.

But what can I do?

Xiaofang was broke from the time they met again (he had sacrificed everything), and Yuhanna had just paid their entire ransom at the auction house, and her assets had rapidly shrunk.

The amount that the three of them used to be enough to go to another world was now a meager amount that only one person could afford.

“Because I am not poor?!”

Lee Jin-woo passed Yuhan-na’s words through one ear and focused on the money line in front of him.

No, it was not simply a corner where money came out, but it could be said to be a lifeline.

If you add Shin Hye-young and Yuhan-na’s assets together, your available assets doubled.

In other words, you can make money twice as fast.

“Then lend me the money!”

Shin Hye-young exclaimed in disgust.

“…… No, what the hell do you believe in!”

“I can’t earn stably because I don’t have a securities company, but I can copy money right away?!”

“No, it has nothing to do with your skill gambling! What the hell is the basis! Grounds!”

This is a reasonable question indeed.

A reason to ask from the point of view of lending all property.

Jinwoo Lee shook his head and called up his status window.

Lee Jin-woo put on a satisfied expression as he saw his abilities slightly increased overall.

I almost shed tears when I saw the money in my possession with the wonderful digit of ‘0’, but anyway, that wasn’t the important thing right now.

[ Luck: 80 ]

Overwhelming luck, if it had been for other stats, it would have been rated black!

‘Maybe I’m actually a gambling genius.’

Of course, you’ll have to find out if it’s long or short.

So, I bet on the luck of everyone in the party, including myself!

Lee Jin-woo made a decision, and the blond red-eyed witch reluctantly invested all her fortune.

I had faith in Lee Jin-woo himself, but I thought it would work out somehow after seeing the black class behind him.

Yuhanna and Xiaofang were both top-ranked magicians, and those who reached such a peak would have at least one corner to believe in. There was no way I would risk my life in a hopeless place.

‘Yeah, it worked out rather well.’

The probability of doing well on this side is higher than making money or investing oneself in the margin of auction items that don’t even work.

Shin Hye-young believed in Lee Jin-woo, co-owner of the Philosopher’s Stone project, her best friend and colleague with whom she once walked the battlefield together.

Gearco bets all of his fortune.

The result.

“Mmm.”

Lee Jin-woo fell asleep.

[ Possession: 0 Gold ]

It seemed like it was f*cked up.
