Chapter 334: Overcoming the illusion (I)
As the daughter of such a man, Yordana’s status and reputation were actually not any less than that of the Imperial Children.
Cain stared at the woman and recognized her status, but still, he softly shook his head. He was already tired and was no longer in the mood for fighting.
"I am sorry, but I’m all tapped out already."
The young woman seemed to expect that, but she did not give up so easily.
"I am trying to prove the might of my illusion skills, and there is no better sparring partner than someone like you. Of course, I do not expect it to be free, and I heard you have a knack for bets."
Cain’s eyes grew sharp as he heard that, and a flash of his Ego Wave manifested. There were very few temptations that could affect his mind. Even the pleasures of the flesh were something he could control without a problem.
However, as his power rose, gambling became his weak point. The notion of gaining massive wealth by proving his superiority was something he felt attracted to. Of course, he did not simply accept and first had to know the stakes.
"What would you be betting?"
Yordana showed a radiant smile as she heard those words. She might have had a refined aura but was still young and wanted to test herself, raising her name for all to hear, and what better way than to fight what some consider among the greatest monsters of the new generation, Cain Laurifer.
"I heard your Natural Holy Weapon shattered when you performed that magnificent strike against the High Blood Elder. I have contacts and could get one of the greatest Wave Crafters of the Silver City to take a look at it to see if it could be fixed."
Cain’s eyes immediately glowed with excitement as he heard that. Although he could get a great treasure at the end of his Arcane Noble Ceremony, he did not want to give up on Slaughter.
"So, if I win, you will give me the contact?"
