Hill looked on with interest at the quarreling duo; it seemed the bookmaker closed the bets immediately after discovering "Snow Cloud Peak" had placed a wager!
Although it looked like these two men had made a fortune, the bookmaker had not yet lost anything.
By the time everyone from their alliance had placed their bets, the bookmaker would probably go bankrupt, so their reaction was swift, ending the betting round succinctly.
Unconvinced, "Snow Cloud Peak" said, "Would I just come in and ask? I'm sure it was because of that horse that Hill invited me here!"
Not pleased, "Night Fire Seals the City" said, "You think when there's a chance to make money, you wouldn't ask? Are you some kind of pure and innocent naive being?
Do you think no one knows your name? It would have been enough just to stop you earlier, allowing your family to make a profit. But then they closed the bets."
