SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Chapter 234: Close your mouth

"Master, what should we do with this much wealth?" Fatty asked excitedly while playing with the spirit stones.

Kent, who is staring at the arena shop booklet, lifted his head and met the excited gaze of Ben. "How much do we have in total?" Kent asked while leaning back on the chair.

Fatty put on a thinker's pose and began counting the total number of spirit stones in his possession. Including the 7,000 spirit stones Kent gained through this fight, the total amount reached 20,300 spirit stones.

"Master, at present I have 23,133 spirit stones. Tell me, what should we do with them?" Fatty asked with a wide grin.

Kent gave a casual smile and folded his hands behind his head. "This number won't help us to start any big business in the capital city. We can't even buy a plot of commercial land with it." Kent replied, thinking about Golden Bamboo City's business families.

"Then, what should we do? I thought 20,000 spirit stones were a very big amount." Fatty questioned with less excitement.

"It is a big amount. But not big enough. If my guess is right, we might receive another challenge soon from the top three. So, let's just go for a few days.

Until then, you go and observe the business of Golden Bamboo City. Before that, inform your father to shift your family to the capital. We will let your father handle the business." Kent replied, thinking that one day he has to leave this golden bamboo city.

Fatty's eyes lit up after hearing Kent's suggestion. One of Fatty's goals is to bring his parents to the capital city after establishing business. But he never expected that would come so soon. "I really wonder how my father reacts." Fatty muttered as he imagined his father's reaction.

Their casual talk was interrupted by a servant lady. She passed a round coin with the Arena symbol on one side and the room number on the other side.

"Young master, this room contains all facilities for training and cultivation. You can use it freely whenever you want. But if your ranking drops from the top 10, you must give it back." The servant lady explained with a respectful gesture and left.

Soon, Fatty also paid the tax to the gambling syndicate and received his 6th rank gambler token. Now, Fatty is one of the top few gamblers in the Arena.

Instead of leaving right away, Kent selected a few rare herbs from the Arena store. The arbiter lady helped Kent pick the best quality.

Just as Kent saying goodbye to the new love pair, a servant came in a hurry. "Young master, the patriarch of the Chen family wants to see you. He is waiting outside." The lady bowed after passing the information.

"Master, that old man might be here for revenge. Don't meet him." Fatty replied in a hurry.

Kent just smiled and patted Fatty on the shoulder. "Come with me... I will show you a drama." Kent replied while turning around.

Both the arbiter lady and Fatty followed Kent to see what he was talking about. As they came out of the administrative room, they saw the Chen family patriarch, who stood with his head down.

After seeing Kent, he hurriedly moved forward and held Kent's hands. "Kent, I'm really sorry for what I did earlier. This is all a mistake by my son. Please forgive him for the sake of Sophia. Also, I won't meddle in your relationship with Sophia." The patriarch spoke sincerely with an earnest look.

Both Fatty and Arbiter lady stood with wide, open eyes after seeing how the patriarch spoke. Fatty couldn't believe his eyes as he stared closely at the patriarch's humble behaviour.

"Close your mouth..." The arbiter lady whispered to Fatty while observing the patriarch's sudden turn of behavior.

"Come to the point, patriarch. What do you want?" Kent asked while pulling back his palms from Master Chen's grip.

Instead of feeling any shame, Master Chen smiled awkwardly. "Kent, can you please heal Zi Chen? Even though my son made a big mistake, the punishment is too much for him. Please show some mercy and heal his burnt skin." The patriarch asked in a requesting tone while acting humble before Kent.

Kent smirked with one cheek up after hearing the patriarch request. "I will heal your son on one condition." Kent paused while staring at Master Chen seriously.

"What is it? I will definitely pay you a large sum if you want spirit stones." Master Chen asked with a bit of excitement.

Kent turned to his side and began walking in the corridor with both hands in his pocket. Master Chen hurriedly followed him. "I don't want any of your money. But transfer half of your family wealth to Sophia." Kent replied calmly while staring straight.

Master Chen froze on the spot after hearing what Kent said. While Kent and his two friends were walking, Master Chen stood there in a daze. His heart rate doubled, and his body began sweating.

"Half… Half of my wealth?!" Mater Chen muttered, thinking about the consequences. The Chen family is number one in the capital city now. If Sophia takes half the wealth and leaves the family, the Chen family will be reduced to a second-grade family in the capital city.

"What an ambitious brat..." Master Chen cursed while gritting his teeth in frustration.

He controlled the anger and hurriedly reached Kent with long footsteps. "Stop… What you are asking is not a small thing. Can you really heal my son?" The patriarch asked with a serious look. A little bit of anger is evident in his face.

Instead of replying to Master Chen, Kent pulled his hand from his pocket and raised his palm to shoulder length.

With a quick snap from Kent's hands, emerald green colour flames originated in his palm. The flames were so comforting to look at.

"Vermilion bird flames…!!" The arbiter lady uttered in a shocking tone while staring at Kent's palm with a wide open mouth.

Both Master Chen and Arbiter Lady were staring at Kent's palm in surprise. Fatty, who didn't know about vermilion bird flames, turned to the arbiter lady with a smile. "Close your mouth…" He said funnily, imitating the arbiter lady's voice.
