Limitless Fortune: I Collect SSS-Rank Skills as Payment-Chapter 49: Why Does She Want?

"Yeah, did you awaken your class?"

Lucien smiled at Liora and asked.

"Umm, I am now a mage. See..."

Liora smiled beautifully as she lifted her arm. Then suddenly, he saw a soft green glow begin to swirl around her fingertips, which disappeared right after.

"Wow! Congratulations!"

Lucien seemed impressed as he genuinely felt good for her.

"Hehe... thank you. But... what about you?"

Liora thanked Lucien and asked, her face a little nervous.

"Me? Haha... I also awakened one. I am a Mage too."

Lucien replied with a smile as if very happy.

He had already decided that outside, he would always act as a mage.

After all, he couldn’t just show multiple classes like an idiot, could he?

"Oh? Really?"

Liora widened her emerald green eyes as if extremely surprised.

"Wait... what is your affinity?"

She then asked again as if trying to confirm something. She seemed quite happy that Lucien was a Mage just like her, even more so than him.

"Affinity?"

Only after Liora mentioned it did Lucien suddenly realize that even among mages, their affinities could be different.

For example, looking at the green glow on Liora’s finger just now, she must have Wood affinity.

The Evergreen family had been rumored to have some connection with Elves due to the dungeon they owned, and most of the members were mages with Wood-type affinities.

"Umm... I think it is Earth?"

Lucien thought for a while and suddenly waved his hand to the side, when suddenly a solid stone barrier sprang forth from the ground out of nowhere.

He felt that Earth sounded about right. Although he also had Fire Affinity and Inferno Surge skill, it was better to keep them hidden for now.

He was still oblivious to the ways of this world.

"Earth?"

Liora also saw the skill and realized it was indeed Earth. Lucien didn’t know why, but he felt that she seemed a little disappointed.

"Yeah, Earth. Don’t care about these things. I awaken a class that is already good, isn’t it?"

Lucien didn’t want to be stuck here forever.

"Okay, I have something urgent to do. I will leave first. Do you have anything else to say to me?"

He asked, finding that Liora still seemed to have something on her mind.

"Umm... yes..."

Since he was in a hurry, Liora also didn’t want to waste his time.

So, she contemplated for a bit, bit her lips a little, and asked Lucien with a soft gaze.

"Lucien, do you want to enter the Sylvan Depths with me?"

"Hmm?"

Lucien was caught off guard by her sudden proposal, though.

Sylvan Depths, an Advanced rank dungeon owned by the Evergreen family. It was an extremely important asset of Count Evergreen.

Not everyone could enter that place even if they wanted to. That place was a true treasure even for high high-ranking person, let alone him.

"Why?"

Lucien didn’t immediately agree just because it seemed to be a good deal.

After seeing Lilith, he was already on guard against everyone, even if it was a girl, or even Liora.

"Why? What do you mean, why? Do you know how much benefit you can get from an advanced rank dungeon?"

Liora was surprised that Lucien didn’t agree but asked why. So many people want to enter that place, yet couldn’t, and here he was, so conflicted.

She felt like he was stupid.

"I mean, why suddenly? Why are you being generous out of nowhere?"

Lucien rolled his eyes and elaborated. He didn’t believe pie would fall from the sky just like that.

"Oh, that’s what you mean."

Liora realized, then her expression shifted, turning conflicted, as though she was debating whether to speak.

Lucien could clearly see her restless eyes and the way her fingers clutched the side of her dress... This girl couldn’t hide her emotions at all.

But when she noticed Lucien’s growing impatience, she finally said, a little embarrassed.

"Lucien... I need gold coins, a few thousand. If you can give me, I can take you with me in Sylvan Depths when it is my time to enter, what do you think?"

After running round and round, she finally put out her thoughts, making Lucien completely speechless.

’So, it was all about gold coins again? Is she affected by Greed just like Little Guy or what?’

Lucien looked at Liora weirdly, who actively dodged his eyes. She seemed a little embarrassed and couldn’t meet his gaze.

"Aren’t you the one who invited me just now? Why do I have to pay now?"

He really couldn’t understand this girl. Such a clumsy attempt to gain something; this was a first.

"But... it is Sylvan Depths. An Advanced rank dungeon. Even if you are an Earth Mage, you will earn a lot if you enter. Just a few thousand gold coins... I don’t think it is a loss."

Liora was really going all out as she argued with Lucien with reason. No matter what, she seemed hell-bent on getting them from his hands.

"Okay, I am quite busy these days. We will talk about it later."

Lucien didn’t have time to waste, and he didn’t want to give a definite answer to her just yet.

Although he already knew Liora might not be a Gold Digger, he still couldn’t believe her blindly.

He would decide when it was time. For now, his focus was elsewhere.

"Hey, Lucien... wait. It is really a good deal. Believe me."

Liora was stunned by Lucien’s words and tried to stop him from leaving, but he directly disappeared from the dungeon.

He didn’t wait for her at all.

"Stupid guy. It is just a few gold coins. Why did you suddenly become stingy?"

Liora, left alone, could only gnash her teeth in frustration, her long legs slamming against the ground in a fit.

She thought giving access to an Advanced rank dungeon for mere gold coins was a good deal. But this guy clearly didn’t have a good brain.

’I can’t let him go. I only need a few gold coins. If he doesn’t give me, I will just go to my aunt and complain.’

Liora was really angry as she decided to do just that and also disappeared from the dungeon, ready to chase him down.
