�You really did defeat the snake.�

Bobe was looking at Cale with sparkling eyes.
The sword master had been at the peak as well, but for some reason, he felt as if it was Mr. Merchant Bob who had been at the center of the snake�s scales who had defeated it.

�I�ve always been avoiding that snake and praying that it would disappear someday, thank you for resolving that life-long prayer for me. Mr. Bob, thank you very much.�

Nake Mountain was still rough and rugged but able to show off its beauty now that the fog was gone.
Bobe was sad that he could not see it anymore now that the sun had set. However, he could smile as the fog would not cover the mountain anymore tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, nor any day after that.

�I think a lot of people will visit this mountain now. The scary legend will disappear as well.�
�Mr. Bobe.�

The old man who was sharing his sentiments with a satisfied expression turned his head after hearing the merchant�s voice.

��Gasp!�

He then gasped so hard that he almost died.

�N, no way?�

He looked toward the merchant, Cale, with his eyes open as Cale gently smiled while handing the item in his hand over to Bobe.

�I am thorough with my deals. I need to keep my promise.�
�T, this- such-!�

Bobe�s hands were shaking.

�One�two� Five� T, ten��! Ten!�

Ten 1 million gallon checks were placed in Bobe�s hand.
Furthermore, the checks had been created by the Flynn Merchant Guild, the famous and most discussed merchant guild in the Roan Kingdom right now.

�This is the payment for your help.�

Cale had given him the 10 million gallons he had promised.
Bobe looked toward merchant Bob with shaking eyes. Although the night was here, it looked as if there was a bright light shining behind Cale.

�I never expected you to really give this much��! That�s okay. I don�t need the money.�
�Please take it. I am rich.�
�Excuse me?�
�I�m rich. I�m very wealthy.�
��Ah.�

Bobe who seemed to be unable to think properly snapped out of it and started to speak.

�Let�s first head down the mountain as it will be harder once it gets completely dark! I will provide you with tea and dinner! We can, uhh, talk more about this money over dinner!� JrNovels.com
