Lifeless
Do you ever feel like a lot happened?
I don't know why, but as I see little Bai head inside and turn to the elders, I feel like a whole lifetime has passed.
Weird, right?
By the way, weren't they supposed to go in with him?
For the test I mean.
Either he misspoke earlier, or they are just slacking.
I'm not sure.
Then again, what am I expecting from a bunch of gambling addicts?
I really should lower my expectations.
Ah, that reminds me of a song.
Irrelevant.
"Are you sure you don't want to participate?"
[*Sigh* I truly am broke.]
What is the point of participating?
Sure making money is fun, but I have so little that even if I win it will be disappointing.
I may as well just wait to get my money from the city.
"Want to bet on your friend passing the test? How about this, if you win I'll give 50 silvers. If you lose you just need to give me a tip on how your friend caught a slime."
I was going to refuse, but really this is not much of a secret.
