บท 252: A Sudden Request

"Huh?" the Grand Blue Master uttered as he heard Argentum's response. Thinking that he had heard wrongly, he went ahead and vigorously shook his head to and fro. To Argentum, who saw the Grand Blue Master doing this all of a sudden, he could not help but mutter to himself, "Why is he doing that?"

Fortunately, the Grand Blue Master stopped shaking his head after a few seconds, his sense of vision locking onto Argentum's soon after. He then imitated the sound of a being clearing the throat after that to reduce the awkward atmosphere between them as he asked Argentum, "Could you repeat what you said earlier? Regarding the reward you want from the inheritance? I think I might have misheard you."

Without hesitation, Argentum said the same words he uttered a while ago, telling the Grand Blue Master in a slightly questioning tone, "I would like to become a partial owner of the Grand Blue Inheritance?"

Cough! Cough! Cough!
