His eyes not moving away from the hippogriff's, Daichi moved closer to the edge of the forest as he wondered what this game was about. He was mesmorized by the black raven color hippogriff and his mouth fell a little open when he was close enough to read the game rules.

Betting?!

"P-professor?!" he asked as he looked at the man. "My dad says betting is wrong..." he blinked innocently a couple of times before moving his hand in his pocket. "i bet 20000 galleons on that black one right there~!" He said with a sly smile and pointed towards TalonFingers while handing him two tokens.

Okay so it wasn't 20000 galleons, but it sounded cooler.
