Even for someone like him, a hundred gold galleons is a significant amount.
As for his opponents saying that they have no money?
The poor kid of the Weasley family may not have the money, but isn't there a Foley?
The Foleys, as a family of potion masters, are very rich. They are in fact so rich that even the Great Malfoys are envious of their wealth.
This amount of money is almost nothing to them.
"Hehe, Dad will definitely praise me once he knows that i won over the Foleys!"
Malfoy thought to himself.
Seeing that the two did not speak, Malfoy continued:
"How about it? Can't the young master of the Foley family even take out a hundred galleons?
If you don't have it, then forget it. "
Having reached this point, how could Braun refuse now?
"Okay, i agree to the bet."
Braun and Malfoy shook hands.
It is considered agreeing to the bet between each other.
Though it is a big deal to lose the gold galleons when he has just received them, it's better than being labelled a coward.
Braun handed over six silver sickles for the registration fee for the both of them.
The two then lined up.
But because of the bet with Malfoy just now, the other wizards who were already lined up made way for these two kids.
After all, the life of wizards is too boring and doesn't have many choices for entertainment.
They also happened to want to see this bet between the descendants of three pure-blood families.
The area quickly became empty in front of Braun and Ron.
"Braun, are you sure you want to go ahead with this bet?
You don't need to worry about me and force yourself to go ahead with this! "
Ron held his head in pain.
He feels sad both for the entry fee of the six silver sickles and for the imminent loss of a hundred gold galleons.
He had never seen so much money.
Compared to Ron's pain and sadness, Braun was full of confidence at the moment.
The topics for the competition are less like wizard's common sense questions and more like some brain teasers he knew from his previous life.
In his previous life, he had no friends, he would often get book on brain teasers, puzzles and riddles to read.
Winning these topics can be said to be more than enough.
At least enough for a draw with Malfoy.
The reason why young wizards like Ron are not able to score high in this competition is because they have no knowledge of Muggles.
On the other hand, if you change to a Muggle-born wizard, they will definitely be able to answer a lot of these questions.
"Don't worry Ron! Look at me! "
Braun stopped Ron from freaking out.
"Do you want him to see how ugly you are?"
Malfoy laughed presumptuously.
Braun ignored his poor attempt at a joke.
Sometimes, facts are more useful than words.
"Ready?"
The clerk at the Quidditch boutique asked with a smile.
Braun nodded.
The clerk waved his wand.
A question appeared on the huge wall.
"An Auror with three prisoners wanted to cross the river.
The three prisoners are a garlic-loving Muggle, a dark wizard, and a vampire.
But his flying broom is too small to carry more than one person.
How can he bring everyone over to the other side of the river? "
"Merlin's beard! I've never seen a dark wizard or a vampire! "
Ronald shouted desperately when he saw the question.
"It has nothing to do with whether you've seen vampires and dark wizards or not."
Braun was a little helpless.
How did I end up with such a stupid cousin?
However, there is not much difficulty in this question.
Isn't this Otherworld's wolf sheep and cabbage question?
It's just that the wolf has become a vampire.
The sheep became a dark wizard.
Cabbage became a muggle that loved garlic.
There was no need to hesitate.
Braun replied directly:
"Take the wizard over first.
Then bring the garlic-loving Muggles over.
Bring the dark wizard over again.
Bring the vampire over again.
Then return to the other side to bring the dark wizard over.
So all three were carried across the river. "
"Oh my God! It's amazing! I'm still thinking about that. He has already answered the question! "
"Did he read the answer beforehand? How else could it have been answered so quickly? "
"Malfoy is not as fast as him!"
"..."
Braun's answering speed has shocked the wizards around him.
You know, even Malfoy just now thought about the question for a very long time before answering the question.
There's someone like Braun who just answered the questions almost instantly.
"Very good! The answer is correct. Congratulations!"
The clerk approvingly handed over a badge with a broom on it.
"Do you want to start the next question?
But I have to remind you. The next questions can only be answered by one person.
Who are you going to choose to attempt it? "
Looking at Ron, who couldn't wait to take a few steps back, Braun knew he couldn't count on him:
"I will answer it myself!"
"Okay, next question should be answered while wearing a blindfold. Do you agree to being blindfolded?"
The clerk asked for Braun's permission.
"Okay"
After getting Braun's consent, he blindfolded Braun.
"There are two pairs of black socks and two pairs of white socks in front of you, eight socks of the exact same fabric and size, and each pair of socks is connected to a piece of trademark paper.
But you accidentally mixed these eight pairs of socks together.
How can I separate two pairs of black socks and two pairs of white socks? "
"Oh my God! It's so hard! "
"Yes! There is no way to divide it! "
"Unless you use the Flying chant!"
"If you want me to use divination!"
"..."
Braun ignored the crowd's comments.
He proceeded to pick up the socks on the table and walked to the fireplace.
"What is he trying to do? How can he take the socks away? "
"I don't know, maybe he gave up!
And decided to burn the socks since he couldn't answer. "
"I think it might be the case."
