"Fine, I accept your 'bet.'"
The middle-aged man who had offered to be the bookmaker looked greedily at the Brother Nangle, his eyes burning with desire.
In his eyes, these two fools were simply delivering original stones to him.
"Accepting our 'wager' is fine, but you must first prove that you have the capital to pay... three hundred top-grade original stones, five million high-grade original stones."
Demetrius Nangle said indifferently.
"Humph! I will not lose."
The middle-aged man said.
"So you say... you're looking to fleece us without putting anything on the line? Do you really think there's such a good deal in the world?"
Demetrius Nangle said mockingly.
"It seems that you never intended to place a bet."
The middle-aged man sneered.
There was no way he could produce three hundred top-grade original stones and five million high-grade original stones on the spot.
In fact, he was certain.
