The gamblers went mad. Almost all of them, who weren't monster tamers, rushed to surround Ainsley and started to offer things they used as their betting chips.
"I use a 2-stars precious herb, good for nurturing one's soul! Pick me!"
"No, no, pick me! I'll bet my piece of land at the outskirts. It's definitely worth a 3-stars treasure!"
"Tch! You and your empty land can be called a treasure? Move on! I have this sacred fruit that can expand one's energy core by 2%!"
The gamblers tried hard to please Ainsley and get themselves picked. However, not all gamblers did that. In fact, a certain boy stood still on the spot with his eyes wide open.
This…no! This can't be! How could this be?! That nobody from the Sloan Family can do something so miraculous?
Allowing non-tamers to contract a monster… is against the norm! That's impossible! There has never been such a case before!
Lael refused to believe that Ainsley just created a history.
One could imagine how the Sloan Family would definitely rise above the cloud with such a good business in their hands.
No one could copy their monster-taming business. Thus, they'd be the sole seller…they would monopolise the entire market!
And who wouldn't want to have one or two monsters as a contracted monster when they could do so in exchange for money or treasures?
Even if the baby priced the monster in energy crystals, the big shots would very gladly do the bidding.
Wouldn't this be bad, then?
Lael's face darkened. He looked at the bunch of gamblers trying to get themselves on the mother raptor through gambling. The boy couldn't help but shout.
"Everyone, don't panic. Don't get fooled! This toddler must be lying to us. There's no way you can contract a monster as a non-tamer!"
Lael tried to affect the gamblers' mind so that Ainsley's potential business wouldn't have any customers due to the hoax.
However, the gamblers didn't even give a glance at the boy. A few brave ones even shoved the boy aside and went to find Ainsley.
"Pick me, Godtoddler! Pick me!"
"Me, me!"
"Ahhh, me! Go away!"
"Godtoddler, I can buy your mother raptor if you want! Just state the price!"
Someone even outright offered to buy the raptor instead of gambling to get it.
The gamblers on this floor mainly were from high-ranked mafia families or big shots around the capital.
Thus, they could fork out a lot of sum just to buy this low-level monster. After all, what they eyed wasn't only the monster but the connection they could make with the miraculous baby.
If they found a wild monster with good specs, they could ask the Godtoddler for her service to contract the monster even as a non-monster tamer!
The gamblers here were smart. When someone already offered to buy the raptor, they also followed suit.
"Ah, I can also buy the raptor from you, Godtoddler! I'll offer you– "
"No, listen to me. I can offer more! I'm from the Galeon Family– "
The gamblers didn't back off from the deal just because of what Lael said. In fact, they got even crazier.
Even the second son of the Aretha Family went as far as lying straight to our face. He must be trying to get the raptor all for himself! This deal is the real deal!
Lael's shouts achieved a different effect on these crazy gamblers.
Mission failed successfully!
When Lael saw that no one bothered to look at him even though usually, they would try hard to bootlick him, the boy almost slumped to the floor.
No! No! What is this? Since when did I, the second son of the Aretha Family, get ignored like this? How come all of them are busy flattering that nobody?!
There's no way her ability is real, right? She must be faking it somehow!
Lael stubbornly refused to believe Ainsley. The boy slowly walked away from the crowd while muttering 'impossible. It's a fake. Impossible!'
But would Ainsley care about someone from the Aretha Family? Meh. Her fairy friend, Finnie, seemed to hate Blair, someone from the Aretha Family.
And so, she would try her best to boycott the Aretha Family!
While Lael quietly left the hall to find his siblings and tell them about this shocking news, the baby started to organise the chaotic hall.
"Okay, okay, everyone, line up and show me your betting chip! Remember, I won't sell the raptor. I'll only use it as a betting chip!"
Ainsley would be a fool to sell the raptor just for one treasure or other items.
If she could get the treasures without losing the raptor through gambling, why should she sell it?
Thus, the baby started to pick some gamblers that had good stuff, which she needed.
[That guy has a high-quality wind stone. If your cat can absorb it, his power will go up by a notch.] The Godfather started to guide Ainsley.
[Pick that one too. That herb can minimise your energy consumption upon use. Good stuff.]
[That red-blue flame fruit is also good, Lil lass. It can expand your energy core by 5%! Better than whatever sacred fruit the previous guy offered.]
[Oh! Good stuff for a monster tamer! Pick that guy with a rare 'monster pheromone' potion. That potion can help monster tamer to attract monsters.]
[Ah, that one too. Good for your Lil Eli. Hm, that ointment, yes. Her speed will be faster if she uses that ointment every day.]
The Godfather picked 5 to 10 gamblers with the most suitable treasures for Ainsley.
After that, he advised the baby to move on to another floor once she's done with these gamblers.
It's time for a treasure hunt!
