Chapitre 179: Valentina's Thirst

"Sigh, Luna. You are too impatient. Fine. Do you think that even if Roy Clive is as stupid as he looks, his father, who is one of the Supreme Generals, would be the same? I purposefully wanted to let them think that I was scared, and, in a panic, to save Valentina, I put out a one-sided bet to shift the blame from her head. 

If I had offered ridiculous or humiliating conditions, even if Roy would find it funny and stupid, his father would surely be suspicious. Someone who has lived for centuries and knows the things I have done would think that I am up to something. He might even prepare Roy to use some backhanded schemes, which I don't have time to entertain. It's easier to destroy an unsuspecting enemy. Of course, they should pay for tormenting Valentina and me."
