Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons-Chapter 184 - Double Tamers - 3
"Finch," Lin looked at him warningly while counting her crystals. "You're whispering too loudly..."
"Sorry, sorry," the banker adjusted his glasses. "The excitement of the moment."
"As I was saying," Ren continued, "there are beasts that could work."
Zhao straightened, his interest completely captured.
"A camouflage raptor would be perfect," Ren suggested.
"THEODORE!" Finch couldn't contain himself. "WRITE THAT DOWN!"
"Finch!" two voices scolded him simultaneously.
"Sorry," the banker shrank in his seat.
"Camouflage raptor?" Zhao considered the idea. "It would undoubtedly help with silent flight dynamics but..."
Finch "accidentally" dropped some papers near them, bending to pick them up with exaggerated slowness.
"But they're not easy to obtain," Zhao continued, ignoring how the banker now pretended to search for something under the counter to be closer. "And they only reach silver 1 at most. Being a double tamer, my chance of reaching gold with the castle's help is quite good and..."
Theodore wrote frantically while his tamer climbed the counter.
"In fact," Zhao added, "I could ask Julius for a wolverine. Feathers with elemental damage of my choice would be useful, plus I could reach gold 1 that way and..."
"Reaching gold isn't a good reason to get the wolverine and discard your own style, professor. If it's just about reaching gold I..."
Ren was about to explain how he could take the raptor to gold, but he noticed Finch practically hanging from the counter, his eyes enormous behind his glasses.
Liu and Lin looked at him, shaking their heads.
"He's a gossip," Liu murmured.
"The biggest one," Lin nodded while collecting her two hundred thousand withdrawal.
"But you have to admit this is fascinating."
The mouse nodded vigorously from behind his book.
"Professor, why don't we continue this conversation in Ren's room?"
Finch straightened instantly, abandoning all pretense of discretion. "What? You're leaving already? But we were just getting to the interesting part!"
Theodore's shoulders dropped in disappointment, his whiskers drooping.

"Not even a hint?" Finch complained while compulsively adjusting his glasses. "Is this how you treat your humble financial servants? The custodians of your fortunes?"
"...Poor commoners like Theodore and me," he continued while his mouse nodded dramatically, "can only dream of the magnates' secrets..."
"...Theodore," Finch turned to his assistant with a theatrically hurt expression, "remember when we only had to count normal crystals? Before they came with their mysterious secrets and impossible deposits?"
The mouse nodded solemnly while wiping an imaginary tear.
"Life was simpler then," Finch sighed. "Now we have to live with the torture of knowing there are more secrets," he looked accusingly at Ren, "secrets that could revolutionize banking as we know it, and they won't even give us a hint!"

"Dramatic as always," Liu laughed while they headed to the exit.
"It's not drama!" Finch protested. "It's professional indignation! Right, Theodore?"
The mouse raised a tiny fist in solidarity.
"See!" Finch pointed to his assistant. "Even Theodore is indignant! And he never gets indignant!"
"See you, Finch," Ren smiled as they left.
"Someday!" Finch called after them. "Someday we'll discover your rich people's secrets! Theodore won't rest until then!"
The last thing they saw before the door closed was Theodore nodding with determination while pulling out a new notebook titled "Theories about the Mushroom Magnate - Volume 2".

"The camouflage raptor can reach gold if you follow my method," Ren explained in his room. "And when it evolves, it's not just a beast that hides."
"What do you mean?" Zhao asked with genuine interest.
"Its scales become extremely hard," Ren's mushrooms pulsed while he detailed. "You could combine your feathers' dynamics with them, make them heavier and invisible. Plus, the beast's stalking attacks are incredibly fast."
Zhao touched his chin, processing the information. "You're sure you can take it to gold?"
"Ren doesn't lie... If he says he'll take us to gold, he definitely can," Lin intervened. "But for now, it's better to keep this between us."
Zhao nodded slowly, understanding the implications.
"Since we all have potions," Min began while they waited for Zhao to finish accepting the incredible reality of what Ren was, "we should decide what beasts we want."
"I want to try getting the mole I didn't get," Taro stepped forward. "The brown egg didn't give me one the first time, but now that Ren can help us get almost anything..."
"Actually," Ren interrupted, "I already have a Deep Assassin egg prepared that would be great for you."
"A what?" Taro frowned. "I don't want that horrible bug, I want the mole. It's an impressive beast that can..."
"The Deep Assassin has perfect synergy with your Living Tunnel," Ren explained. "Your ability to manipulate minerals and your carapace would benefit all its future abilities and..."
"But..." Taro didn't seem convinced. "The mole can dig faster and everyone would..."
"The Deep Assassin can use your living crystal to amplify its attacks a lot," Ren continued. "And again, I already have the egg ready..."
Taro crossed his arms. "I don't know... the mole sounds cooler."
"And you, Liu?" Min tried to change the subject seeing Taro wouldn't easily yield.
"Anything good works," Liu shrugged. "It's not like I'm very attached to the useless bat that left me embarrassed..."
"You should consider a banshee hyena," Ren suggested.
"A hyena?" Liu made a face. "Why would I want that when I could have something like a golden lion or..."
"Because the banshee hyena would increase your sonic damage and improve your future skill set with your beast," Ren explained. "The bat isn't bad, it's just a baby. Since you can't get rid of it, it would be better to use it well."
"But hyenas are..." Liu searched for the words, "inelegant."
"The banshee hyena would greatly increase your power with the insane volume of its shrieks and laughs since they can shred their opponents' nervous system with a single howl," Ren countered.
"Still..."
"And me?" Min interrupted. "I was thinking about a phoenix that would heal me too. Something majestic that..."
"Fire wouldn't combine well with your water snake... You need defense and stealth," Ren shook his head. "As a healer, you must stay safe. An invisible amphibian would be perfect."
"An... amphibian?" Min looked horrified. "You want my second beast to be a lame hiding frog?"
"They aren't frogs… An amphibian that can become almost completely invisible," Ren corrected. "It would increase your water magic, so your healing too, and they're extremely resistant."
"But when people ask about my second beast..." Min protested weakly.
"You'll be alive to answer them," Ren completed.
"How would you create the eggs for all these rare beasts?" Zhao intervened, noticing the boys' unconvinced expressions.
