I think this is the time we should remember what the ox and donkey had said before. They already predicted that this will happen and it is looking like that already. Also, I would not blame Bernez for going back to the beggar since that is what every human is going to do especially for the fact that they are talking about wealth and it is possible for them to become rich along the line. But I noticed two things which are very obvious here.
The first thing I noticed is Bernez love for Rozennik. This is really pure and it is very much obvious because all he has been saying was her and it is obvious that he is trying to make wealth because of her so he could have enough money to take care of her.
It is also obvious that the beggar does nit even care about Bernez. He is so stingy and I just hope that nothing bad happens to Bernez. I’m sure he’d be fine and also scale through. I just wish to know how this will end
