Chapter 452 The Honest Old Farmer and the Evil Capitalist of the New Era
Faced with questions from Hiti and the others, Cresos huddled alone in the middle, trembling as she backed away, appearing extremely weak and helpless.
"Um...I...I don't know either. I didn't do anything...and I was...released..."
Hearing Chrisos's explanation, Hiti and the others narrowed their eyes.
Do you think we believe that?
Just as the two sides were at an impasse, Xie Bai walked up from behind.
"What...are you doing?"
Upon hearing Xie Bai's question, Hiti and the others froze and immediately looked in Xie Bai's direction.
"Big sister! You're back!"
Just as Hiti was about to rush to hug Xie Bai first, Krysos suddenly appeared next to Xie Bai in some unknown way and hugged Xie Bai even faster than Hiti.
"Um...Big sister, they...they bullied me..."
As she spoke, Krysos lowered her head and secretly glanced at Hiti.
Upon seeing this, Hiti's eyes twitched wildly, but she maintained a fake smile and did not take another step forward.
"hehe…"
Hiti watched as Clythos complained to Sheba, her fists clenched tighter than ever.
Thus, the peace agreement between the three broke down the moment Xie Bai appeared, and the situation showed an escalating and irreversible trend.
Faced with Krysos's accusations, Xie Bai glanced at her, then looked up at Hiti and the others, his eyes gradually narrowing.
Is that so?
At that moment, a shadow from within Xie Bai's shadow quietly crept up to Xie Bai's ear and seemed to whisper a few words to her.
A moment later, Xie Bai nodded, and the shadow shrank back into the shadows.
"Alright, I know what happened between you. It's late now, so please all go back to your rooms and rest. We can continue our conversation tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Hiti and the others were momentarily stunned.
"Huh? Um...we don't need to sleep..."
"Um?"
"Okay, okay..."
Hiti and the others immediately left the area and returned to the rooms that the Dome Academy had previously provided for them.
Krysos watched them leave, and felt a temporary sense of relief.
She looked up at Xie Bai, about to thank him, when he suddenly smiled and looked at her with narrowed eyes.
"Crysos, can you tell your sister... who is Migel?"
Thump…
Clythos's heart skipped a beat.
Before she could explain, a pale golden figure suddenly materialized beside him.
【God of Wealth - Miguel lv.300】
The moment he appeared, Mijeel bowed slightly in Xie Bai's direction.
"Greetings, Lord King of the Void."
Xie Bai seemed somewhat surprised by this scene.
"Oh? That's quite polite. So, tell me, what's the relationship between you and Cresso?"
Upon hearing this, Krysos frantically winked at Migel, trying to get him to watch his words.
But clearly, Miguel ignored her.
"Yes, Your Excellency. To explain this matter, please allow me to introduce my concept of authority."
As he spoke, Migel held up a long, crimson-gold spear in his hand.
[Divine Weapon: Golden Ear]
"Although I am in charge of wealth, the concept of wealth also has its biases. For example, this magical artifact in my hand, while possessing the concept of wealth, also contains some agricultural symbols, representing my conceptual bias: the creation of wealth."
"In the distant past, when the continent was still barren, it was I who used my authority to bring the first new wealth, bringing prosperity to an era before the birth of the God of Life."
"Afterwards, the world gradually stabilized, and I no longer needed to use my authority to bring excess wealth to the continent. So I began to concentrate all the power of authority on myself and created wealth far exceeding the total wealth of the entire world."
"Then, about 30 million years ago, I happened to meet this lady while I was wandering around the human world."
Migel suddenly changed the subject and pointed at Krysos, who was standing next to Xie Bai.
"When I first met her, I noticed that she also possessed a certain power of wealth and authority, which piqued my interest."
"She happened to say to me at that time, 'Do you want to play a game? As for the chips... they were my wealth that was so excessive as to be meaningless.'"
"Obviously, these conditions were nothing to me, so I played one hundred and twenty-eight games with her. In the end, I not only incurred debts four times my original wealth, but also handed over 67% of myself to her, and this power could disregard the control of the High Court."
"It was only after that that I learned that the portion of wealth and power she controlled was biased towards plunder and monopoly."
After listening to Migel's description, Xie Bai nodded thoughtfully.
"Oh...I see? Then I think I understand what's going on."
So it's like an honest, simple farmer encountering a new-era evil capitalist?
The other party cannot create wealth on their own, but can enjoy the benefits by exploiting Miguel, who is the one who truly creates wealth, and always presents a weak and frugal appearance to the outside world.
Hmm...that's interesting.
"But I have a question..."
Xie Bai looked down at the huddled-up Cresos.
"Aren't witches supposed to start without corresponding authority? How come you had some wealth and authority from the beginning?"
The diary only records that Cresso was very rich, but does not specify the source of his wealth.
Now it seems that this was to maintain Clythos's cute and harmless image?
Faced with Xie Bai's question, Krysos stammered for a long time without being able to answer, and it was Migel who finally spoke up to save the day.
"After investigating this matter myself, I discovered that someone was actively promoting the social development of this world until it developed an economic structure that should not exist in the first place, and thus a new concept of wealth was born."
"Originally, this new concept should have been incorporated into my authority, but someone else preemptively seized it and used it to create the Wealth Witch. Now it seems that this was a premeditated act."
After saying that, Migel secretly glanced at Xie Bai.
That look said nothing, yet it said everything.
Xie Bai instantly understood who Migel meant by "someone".
"Alright, I have nothing else to ask. You can go back now."
"OK."
After saying goodbye, Migel vanished from the spot, leaving only Xie Bai and Krissos behind.
"Um...Big sister...I..."
"Crysos suddenly spoke up."
But before he could finish speaking, Xie Bai covered his mouth.
"Don't overthink it. I never said I would abandon you for any reason. Go home and get a good night's sleep tonight, then have a proper meal the next day."
"I see... I understand... wait a minute? Does Big Sister mean I should go with Hilary and the others...?"
"Um?"
"Uh... okay..."
