Chapter 131 Ruby's Bet
Chapter 131 Ruby's Bet
The class was now over, and Ruby, Gold, Livie, and Rebecca had grouped to go to the scavenger hunt event.
Rebecca was the event host, so I asked for something from her. "Since you're the host, do you know where the prizes are?"
"Where is the fun in that? If I told you." I knew she wasn't going to tell me, but it was worth trying to ask.
"Olivia, could I get something to eat?" I have often been snacking. Since I had free access to sweets, I had been addicted to eating them.
Seeing me eat made the rest of the group crave something to munch on. Livie, being the nice girl, had offered some snacks to the rest of the group.
We still had some time before the event started. "I would like to stay, but I have the stuff to prepare for the event."
Rebecca had left our group leaving the four of us. The four of us sat down at a table near a food court.
"Charlie, why don't we make a bet?" Ruby smiled widely when she proposed an idea.
"A bet for what?" For the event? I didn't know the rules of the event.
"What else is there to bet about? Of course, I was talking about the event." Ruby had a competitive aura when she announced this.
"Gold, you should stop her sometimes." It was not wrong to be competitive, but Ruby was too competitive.
If she were to keep making bets with the wrong person, I would be too afraid of what will be in store for her.
"So what will you say?" Ruby was egging me to accept her bet.
"What does the winner get?"
"If I win, I will get an unlimited free meal from your friend Olivia." It wasn't too bad if I lost. I then looked at Livie and checked if she didn't mind.
She nodded, confirming that she didn't mind. "If you win, I will give you this."
Ruby had taken out something from her storage bag. It was a medallion of some sort. I couldn't tell what it was used for.
"What does that do?" Ruby and Gold were shocked hearing me say that. Olivia, like me, didn't know what the medallion was for.
"You seriously don't know what this is???" I shook my head and denied knowing what that medallion did.
"Then do you know where Mt. Igarde is?"
"Yes, I'm not that stupid." It was where the dragonewts resided.
"Then do you know how to enter Mt. Igarde?"
"Can't we just walk in?" Livie had to interject.
"No, of course not. We dragonewts are pretty territorial. We don't let outsiders in.
"So that medallion would let us in?" It was just a guest on my part, seeing that we were on this topic.
Ruby nodded, satisfied that we had got it pretty quick. "Are you sure you want to bet that medallion?"
I don't want to undermine Livie's cooking, but if she wins. It would only be a month's worth of cooking. Not only that, we will be going to do our next commission soon.
"While you may suck ass. I trust you enough not to cause any trouble, willingly." My eyes twitched from annoyance. Even if her words were valid figuratively, the only ass I sucked was Livie's.
"Then how will we determine the winner?" It was a scavenger hunt, and we could compete in many ways.
"The winner will be decided if one of us has the better prize." I had no problem with this competition, but I doubted I would win.
Ever since my transmigration, my luck has been dog shit. The only good thing that happened was my meeting Livie.
"I accept." With my acceptance, the bet has been made.
We were still thirty minutes before the event started. The four of us started heading to the venue to participate.
"Wait, we have to sign up?" A long line of students was waiting to sign up for the event. I could see the front person signing up.
"Yes." ... I just couldn't.
"And why didn't you say that earlier?" That was the first thing she could have said before telling me about the bet.
Ruby had looked away, embarrassed to answer. "Hehe... I forgot."
I shouldn't make a ruckus. I hope that we can make it in time. Luckily only students of this school were accepted to the event. Otherwise, the line would take forever.
After waiting twenty minutes in line, it was finally our turn to sign up. If we were to arrive any later, I don't think we would be able to participate in the event.
There was only one line. I felt terrible for the person overseeing the list of participants. Writing my name down, I had to get my student card scanned, making me eligible to join.
With the four of us accepted. All we needed to do was wait for five minutes. The event was in a building, and we couldn't get in until the event started.
"Do you girls see Rebecca anywhere?" There were still a few minutes before the event started, and Rebecca said she was the host.
As I said, a girl dressed wonderfully appeared on the screen. A projection of Rebecca was shown to anyone around the place participating in the event.
"Good afternoon, everyone!!!" Rebecca had greeted anyone that had listened.
"As you may know, I'm Rebecca, the first princess of Avaris!" Everyone knew that Rebecca was the princess, but she stated it because she very much liked the title.
"For everyone unaware of what is happening! Today we're hosting an event for the students of Avaris!" Rebecca then stated the purpose of the broadcast.
"What will we be doing, you wonder?! Today we will be doing a scavenger hunt!"
"And where would we be doing it? In a giant castle, of course!" What castle? Looking around, I didn't see a castle.
Suddenly the floor began to shake. Something was coming from underneath the ground. The Castle Rebecca had mentioned is here. My eyes couldn't believe what had just happened.
