Chapitre 1057: His Decision(2)

"A barter? Are you serious? What could you possibly have that might interest the Treasury? I do admit that it is possible for one to barter with us… But I highly doubt that you have anything valuable to give. And besides, what do you want to barter for? We have already gone through the best of everything we have to pick out these four treasured. Tell me. What is it you wish for?"

"All of them. I do not want to choose – I want all four treasures, including the two methods."

This time, the silence that came about filled Daneel with apprehension, as he did not know whether the being that he was talking to was capable of anger.

In a way, it could be said that he was accepting the kindness of the Treasury and then spitting on its face, as he was asking for more even though it had stepped forward to help on its own, without him, or anyone else beseeching it for assistance.
