Chapter 270: 114. Ant (6000)

Magic, with a displeased expression on his face, walked out of the breakfast shop after reluctantly paying thirty-five euros for breakfast, not expecting to be taken advantage of by a prince.

Even trying to imitate Gedelin II, he wouldn’t want to pay for a breakfast costing a few tens of euros?

Complaints aside, Fisher’s visit from Dexter was not without its gains—at least worth more than the thirty-five euros spent on breakfast.

It was normal for Dexter and Lunxis to be at odds. Lunxis was seven years younger than Dexter and even a year younger than Elizabeth, but he was Gedelin IX’s most beloved child, bar none.

When two younger siblings were born, Gedelin IX’s original queen had been long deceased, so Gedelin IX’s attention to them was not as great as it had been to the earlier princes and princesses, who more often ended up caring for them.

Lunxis, being the youngest son of the original queen, naturally received Gedelin IX’s favor, like a form of compensation to his late queen.

Despite his favoritism, Gedelin IX was still lucid about his choice of heir, and his best option was Prince Dexter.

Now, the control of the national treasury was already in Dexter’s hands, and Elizabeth, who managed the military affairs, had no concern for politics and no chance of succeeding the throne, leaving only Lunxis still struggling by dint of cunning tricks.

But clearly, in terms of capability, Lunxis was no match for Dexter, otherwise, he wouldn’t have had so many holdfasts and pieces of evidence collected by Dexter.

Now, Lunxis was like meat on a chopping board, with the weekend charity gala being the time Dexter was planning to make his move on Lunxis. Fisher could exploit the moment Dexter made his move for his own planning, which was what Dexter had implied before leaving.

This Prince, Dexter, was actually quite intriguing; he was resolute and strategic, yet he valued familial love and compassion, or else he wouldn’t have mentioned confining Lunxis in the Golden Palace.

Similarly, even though Dexter seldom interacted with Elizabeth, he actually bore no grudge over her taking military power and genuinely supported Elizabeth in freely choosing her marriage partner without coercing her to change her marital intentions.

While thinking, Fisher had arrived at the Naribai Bank according to plan and, after donating seventy thousand Nali euros, the bank’s staff called Keken. Fisher easily obtained a green charity gala admission ticket.

Everything happened more smoothly and quickly than Fisher had imagined, making even him exclaim that having connections in Saint Nali indeed made things much easier.

After leaving Bai Cui Bank, Fisher headed towards Saint Nali’s carriage market. Buying a proper carriage required custom order, so the carriage market he was visiting mainly provided rental services.

Nali’s pioneering fever manifested in all aspects of society. To gather enough initial capital, many enthusiastic gentlemen risked it all by mortgaging everything from their family carriages and mansions to even their pets to the banks of Nali for loans. But once they failed to repay the interest, these items would be auctioned off in the Nali market.

Many businessmen with a keen sense of commerce snapped up these carriages; they could not only lease them for occasions needing grandeur, such as weddings, but also rent them to providers of passenger carriage services in Saint Nali. Otherwise, why do you think Fisher frequently managed to catch a carriage on the street?

Fisher himself was fond of carriages; he had spent a considerable sum customizing his own carriage and had put a lot of effort into its decor. He designed many hidden slots and storage compartments on the outside and even installed an expanding space magic within, making it a "mobile luxury dwelling".

The carriage could be considered a top luxury within Nali, absolutely unique. However, when Rafael left, Fisher had given the carriage to her directly; otherwise, that Dragon-Man would have had to walk half the continent back to her tribe.

By now, it was probably still sitting somewhere in the South Continent gathering dust since the carriage wasn’t built for battle, Rafael likely wouldn’t carry it along into war...

Now, financially constrained again, Fisher simply picked a restrained black carriage in the market and rented two black steeds to pull it.

Not just for the charity gala, in the following days, he also planned to take Moli out of Nali’s city center and head to the upper reaches of the Klein River in the northeast of Saint Nali Dong. The area was secluded in the mountains, perfect for Moli to practice balancing.

As for why that location, it was related to the actions planned for the upcoming charity gala.

The Healing Room was located in a very quiet area, right around the middle flow of Klein River, which was very suitable for its sanatorium positioning.

But what Fisher really considered was how to lead Moli out safely if they entered underground; if things went smoothly, they would enter and exit as planned, but if not, Fisher could only think of breaking through the barriers underground near the Healing Room connected to the river and escaping along the river flow.

Before that, Fisher still wanted to scout and get a rough understanding of the Klein River’s conditions.
