Chapter 297 – I Can, Do You Believe Me? (1/2)

Elena moved her lips and spoke extremely quietly and mocked Lin Xiao.

If he wanted to successfully get certified and help Yao Zi, then he had to use at least sixth-level magic. That means he would reveal his own strength, and with so many people watching, the news would surely spread quickly, which would be contradictory to his low-profile approach of dealing with things.

Or perhaps, think of a way to expose Hebrew’s schemes?

No, he still didn’t have enough evidence. Hebrew was the manager here, so he had quite a bit of authority, if he rashly had a falling-out with him, he would just end up like Lin Tian and Yao Zi.

Elena raised her eyebrow when she saw Lin Xiao caught in a dilemma, she was clearly very happy.

It seems like just this was too difficult for him, so that’s all he amounted to, as expected of a perverted good-for-nothing!

Elena was only focusing on hitting him when he was down, yet she forgot that he actually came here to get certified to help her. So she should have been trying to help him think of an idea instead of mocking him.

“Tsk, you disobedient maid, I’ll take care of you when we get home!”

When he saw her ridiculing gaze, he revealed a lecherous gaze to threaten her, then focused on the problem at hand.

The stone doll was stuffed with copper bloodwood, the two together amplified its magic resistance, forcing him to use at least sixth-level magic, but…

“Hehe, I have an idea.”

Lin Xiao confidently laughed and ignored Elena’s amazed look and started the challenge!

“Kid, I’m warning you, you only have one try. If you can’t do it, you half to wait half a month before you can try again.” Hebrew ‘kindly’ reminded him from the side.

Earlier, Hebrew heard from the siblings that this kid was about as strong as they were and was also a fifth-level magician. So Hebrew was sure that he couldn’t knock it over.

But… where did his confidence come from?

Even the fifth-level ice comet had no way of knocking it over and Lin Xiao wasn’t an idiot so he should know that he had no choice, but why was he still so calm?

Could he have hidden his true strength?

“Un, Hebrew, you don’t have to worry, I’ll do my best.” Lin Xiao nodded and didn’t want to waste any time.

His casual attitude made Hebrew feel even more strange.

“Don’t think you can just pay after failing to deal with it! Let me tell you, I’m only asking for funds for renovations, they’re not bribes… that money has nothing to do with me!” Hebrew nervously revealed himself even without anyone asking for it.

“Oh? Is that so? It seems like you’re a good selfless manager.” Lin Xiao causally shrugged off Hebrew’s confession.

“Of course not.”

“Lin Xiao, you have to do your best!”

“Eh?”

While Hebrew was chattering away, Lin Xiao turned to look at Yao Zi who was cheering for him and also Lin Tian who was next to her, and he suddenly had an interesting idea.

“Hebrew, how about we make a bet?”

“A bet? What do you mean?”
