Book 5: Chapter 128: Going All Out

Dowd turned his head stiffly to the other side, only to discover that the guest of honor, Miss Fenice, who had been napping all this while, was now beaming with enthusiasm.

She did not seem like someone who had just woken up from a nap. Her face flushed with excitement as she gripped the participant list in her hands tightly.

Dowd suddenly had a really bad feeling.

Um Miss Fenice, were still on-air Could you please return those to me?

F-Finally

Fenice completely ignored him. Her gaze was fixed on the live broadcast screen, and her hands were trembling with excitement.

Finally, the moment Ive been waiting forHer Highness match!

Her Highness?

Is she one of Princess Lunas crazy fans?

Princess Luna has maintained a low profile for quite some time now, and outsiders these days have barely heard of her name. How could she have crazy fans?

No!

To maintain unwavering admiration for Princess Luna after three years had passedthats what a crazy fan is!

In that instant, various thoughts ran through Dowds mind and he immediately caught onto something ominous.

It was clearly written there on the participant list that Princess Lunas nickname was Dog, which was an extremely humiliating name.

If Miss Fenice sees that, will she be upset about it and cause a scene in the studio?

What will happen to my career then?

Dowds eyes revealed a hint of despair

Fortunately, Dowds fear was unfounded. Fenice simply pulled out a bandana with The Princess Will Win written on it and a cheer stick from somewhere.

She boldly stepped onto the table with one foot and shouted with unparalleled fervor, GO FOR IT, YOUR HIGHNESS! DEFEAT THE OPPONENTS!

Dowd still was not relieved even though Fenice was merely cheering for the princess. He felt something chilly behind him that made his scalp tingle.

He reckoned that Fenice was indeed a die-hard fan to be able to accept everything about Princess Luna, including her nicknameDog.

If she were to witness Princess Lunas defeat, would she do something drastic such as shouting since my favorite idol has lost, none of you are getting out here alive so lets go down together! and pulling out an explosive scroll for a suicide attack?

Fenice frowned in confusion, her eyes scanning Dowd up and down before realization dawned on her.

Oh! You dont want me to be part of it! You want to make money on your own!

Of course not

Dowd was ready to counter whatever Fenice might say but stumbled over his words. He gazed at Fenice with a mix of disbelief and suppressed excitement.

You mean you want in too?

Of course, who doesnt like shiny gold, silver, and copper coins? Fenice gave him a strange look.

Fine, Ill share with you the spectrum stone frequency!

With that, Fenice quickly transformed into Dowds ally. Not only that, being a crazy fan of Princess Luna, Fenice did not hesitate to frantically tap on the column with green numbers upon entering the betting interface.

Her hand moved so swiftly quickly that it generated wind! The green numbers continued to rise and soon surpassed the red column.

Moreover, after Fenice sent a message to someone, the green column rose like crazy. In just a few seconds, it became several times greater than the red numbers!

Dowd gasped the moment he realized how wealthy Princess Lunas crazy fans must be!

At the same time, Dowd felt a sudden rush of blood to his head. He stared intently at the string of numbers in his hand, and his fingers began to tremble

This was his opportunity to turn things around The chance to get rich overnight The chance to bid farewell to his naggy superioreverything was within his reach

After careful consideration and confirming Princess Lunas slim chances against Princess Estelle, Dowd slowly moved his finger toward the screen.

He was prepared to wager his entire fortune!

A total of 155 gold coins, 360 silver coins, and 52 copper coins!

No Not enough! The earning wont be enough!

Dowds eyes turned bloodshot as he decided to go all in. Alongside his entire fortune, he added his propertya two-story high-end real estate situated in the third section of Center Street, an inheritance from his grandfather.

His great-grandfather was rumored to be a humble commoner before eventually becoming a prime minister, wielding significant influence within the government. However, he mysteriously passed away in the end.

Though only this property remained, its value was immeasurable! By rebranding the property as the residence of the ex-ex-ex-ex-ex-prime minister, it could be sold for at least five thousand gold coins!

After completing all these transactions, Dowd let out a long sigh of relief and sank into his chair.

The decisive match between Princess Luna and Princess Estelle had just begun, but the decisive match of his own life had just ended.

Commentary? Whats that? I QUIT!
