Chapter 840 - A Gift From the Moon
“Thousands of gold coins??” Leon stared at Nano’s creation, bewildered.
The total annual expense summed up for the entire Padt Manor was only about 200 gold coins. In other words, Nano provided enough funds to keep Padt Manor running for years within a minute!
Leon now wondered why Nano was following Angor instead of earning a good living by himself.
This was because Nano was supposed to be Angor’s slave, only that it was part of their agreement that Angor wouldn’t treat Nano as a slave for real.
Leon was already fully convinced of Nano’s potential and was about to order Mana to find another independent room. But before he could do so, he suddenly heard Latata calling loudly.
“Wait-no! Argh! It’s too late!”
Leon looked back and saw Nano’s fabric was now a bright green hue. Both Angor and Latata were looking at it with frustrated expressions.
The silk was even glowing slightly in the shadow of the tree. Leon found it impossible to imagine how anyone would wear such a color and go outdoors.
“Sigh…” Eureka saw the embarrassing quietness and downed her wine. “I’d better leave then.”
The liquor with the sweetness of flowers reminded her of her childhood. At that time, she loved staying in a garden full of moonlilies. Back at that time, she used to have a partner who would play with her.
“Hobson…”
Eureka felt her eyes getting sour and prepared to return to her room.
Angor suddenly stood up and attracted everyone’s attention. “I mentioned bringing a surprise before the party, and it’s almost time for it.”
He moved closer to the fire and asked the others to back away a little.
His action caused everyone to pay attention while temporarily forgetting Eureka’s presence.
Eureka also stopped moving and looked back, wondering what Angor was up to.
“It’s a gift for everyone.” Angor smiled in the bright firelight. “A gift from the moon.”
Nobody understood what he meant by that.
Angor summoned a crescent-shaped bottle, which contained some clear liquid inside, in his hand.
“Let’s get some more wine!”
The bottle in his hand suddenly vanished, leaving its content as a puddle that floated in midair.
Next, within seconds, the puddle expanded dramatically until it became a lake-sized pond above their heads that glittered under the moon.
