High School of Demon Hunting

Chapter 764: Chapter 112 Business Wisdom_1

At this moment, the black cat’s attention was focused on the mouse in clothes up in the tree, and he wasn’t particularly aware of what these little bugs at his feet were doing.

But always looking up at the little fellow made him feel a little uncomfortable.

”Hmm, are you here at the school for something?” The black cat held his breath and put effort into making himself look even bigger, putting his head at just the right height to look at the mouse between the branches.

This time, Poseidon didn’t fall over. It could be that after the last two times the black cat grew bigger, he didn’t swallow him whole; it could also be that after being scared twice, there was a bit of immunity in the little fox’s body. Anyway, this time, the little fox was slightly braver. He still looked shaky, but he bravely stayed where he was, much to the black cat’s satisfaction.

Similarly, the other cats and foxes nearby were also a little braver. Even though a few of them stepped back, overall their performance was much better than at the beginning.

This time, the only one who was really frightened was the mouse in clothes that was hanging between the branches.

”What the hell! What kind of mouse can keep getting bigger?!” The mouse in clothes screamed, swung his tail sharply, and flipped over. Then, with a push, it scrabbled upwards towards the higher branches.

Only when it felt it was out of the black cat’s range did the clothed mouse turn around with lingering fear and yell at the massive black cat, ”Speak properly! Don’t keep this terrifying look... it’s too creepy!”

”I just happened to hear your conversation... If you can’t deal with those mice, how about giving them to me? I can trade them for nice stones!”

”Firstly, correct yourself, I’m a human, not a mouse.” The black cat didn’t immediately respond to the tree’s guest, but first corrected a misconception of the mouse.

”I’ve never seen a human with black fur all over, walking on four legs, mouth full of sharp teeth, and red eyes.” Dangdang Ears held the thin branch, his round mouse eyes full of caution: ”I’m not well educated, don’t try to trick me!”

The black cat, hearing these words, immediately rolled his eyes.

”If you know you’re not educated, don’t wander around the university!” The black cat’s tone revealed some displeasure, and his eyes became slightly dangerous looking at the mouse.

Just then, he felt a slight pain in his leg.

Lowering his head, he saw Doctor Xiao pulling a tuft of his black hair, hard. At the same time, the mouse looked up. Seeing the black cat lower his head, he immediately let go, adjusted his glasses, coughed twice, and raised his voice, saying, ”Ask that mouse what kind of pretty stone he is offering!”

”Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!” Lin Guo also seemed to come back to his senses and shouted after him: ”Tell him we don’t want stones without magic! The elders said before that when dealing with other wise creatures, we must be prepared to trick or be tricked... our common sense is useless to them!”

The elders are Zhang Ji Xin, and many of his elder brothers have studied at the university, so they have passed down many useful tips for living on Buji Island, and often taught members of the Absolution Knight Group.

On the branch, Dangdang Ears face turned dark.

”I can hear you!” The mouse in clothes shouted at the tree with an exceptionally injured tone: ”Don’t think we have no moral bottom line like those treacherous merchants! We would never use something worthless to us for trade!”

”The problem is, mice that are very valuable to you, aren’t of much use to us.” The black cat tilted his head, nonchalantly adding a sentence.

Dangdang Ears was left speechless.

After a pause, the clothed mouse reached under his body, rummaged around, and finally pulled out a black stone bigger than his head, held it in front of the black cat’s nose, and shouted loudly, ”See?! This is very precious Black Gold! It can enhance your flame magic power and make your magic more powerful. It’s a super Alchemy product!”

Seeing the black stone advancing towards him, the black cat intuitively tilted his head back. This stone appeared in a very peculiar position, so that the young cost student really couldn’t ignore the potential damage from it.

”I told you, I would never use something worthless to trade with you.” Perhaps Dangdang Ears took the black cat’s careful gaze as interest, and his voice became very smug: ”Now, can I use this Black Gold to exchange for some nearly dead mice...Remember, I don’t want them if they’re dead, they must be alive!”

The black cat stared at the stone with a conflicted face, hesitating whether or not to reach out and take it.

”What’s he holding?” Under the tree, Lin Guo was a bit impatient, raising his voice to ask, ”If it’s not good, don’t agree so easily!”

Due to the angle, the doctor and Lin Guo under the tree could only see the mouse holding a stone, but they couldn’t see where it pulled it out from.

The black cat’s eyes rolled, and a smile slowly formed on his mouth.

”Why don’t you throw the stone down for them to take a look?” He suggested very politely to Dangdang Ears. Without waiting for his refusal, he quickly added, ”Don’t worry about us taking your things... This is the first university, we are students of this school, would we do something immoral?”

”Moreover, if the trade is smooth, we can do business for a long time... Maybe you don’t know, our club is planning to open a shop in Beta Town, and one of the items will be mice. All kinds of mice- alive, dead, white mice, grey mice, black mice, guinea pigs, hamsters- as long as you can think of it, we can catch it for you.”

”By then, we won’t need to trade a few mice at a time, we can go for quantity! Large quantities, standard contracts! The accounts can be managed by Sam’s Pass, they have branches in every college of the first university, the closest branch is less than 800 meters away from this small woods. If it’s inconvenient, you can also open a private trading account at the Wandering Bar. I’m very familiar with the Wandering Wizard, and even have a Gold Card Member there, I can get a discount on transactions. The only thing is, through there, you can’t get an invoice, you need to know this in advance.”

The black cat waved his paw, speaking non-stop, and with every sentence uttered, his momentum increased, and by the end, the mouse on the other side had almost shrunk back into the tree hole.

As you would expect, the black stone it had been holding in its paw, was inexplicably thrown down.
