Chapter 551: I’m a business man, with a business plan
Crowie actually led Bookie to the paladins first, because they were closer.
The paladins came with a report of three skeletons wearing potentially valuable things.
First was a large and tall skeleton wearing fancy red clothes, there were multiple rings on his fingers and several large necklaces hanging over his ribcage.
Bookie observed the big skeleton carefully as he walked through the market, other skeletons would greet him as he toured the place, calling him governor.
All his things together are certainly worth more! But it’s not one item… The ring still wins. Who is the next one?
The paladins then brought bookie to a relatively busy stall, where a decrepit-looking skeleton with graying and cracked bones was selling random junk and trinkets. The interesting part was the skeleton himself, who had a large gemstone inserted in his left eye socket like a fake eye.
Bookie excitedly walked up to the stall.
“Sir, Sir! What’s that in your eye?!” he asked.
“Ohoh, curious ‘bout old lenny’s lamp, are ya, kid?” the skeleton answered, tapping the crystal in his eye socket with a fingertip while he was still busy counting the coins of one of his clients with his other hand. “Here’s your change ma’am, come again.”
