Once Theo discovered the five low-rank mana stones in his clothes, his hand suddenly trembled as if it held something heavy. At the same time, his sadness disappeared in an instant.
It didn't take a genius to guess where the mana stones came from.
As such, Theo felt endless gratitude toward Vaan. The person didn't just pay him more than the agreed price for even less time; the person also took the extra step to pay him without letting anyone know he had precious mana stones on him.
This would help him avoid a troublesome and dangerous situation.
'Five low-rank mana stones are plenty for mum's medicine. The remaining will also support us for a while,' Theo thought.
The little boy suddenly felt bad for misunderstanding Vaan's intention.
"Hey, kid. Where's your home? I'll walk you home and also pay you the one low-rank mana stone owed to you."
