章節 207: Impossible Not to be Tempted

*"What's a contract? If I get the Flood Dragon, I can make it restrain Zoey and force her to alter the terms."*

*"So what if my attributes and life points were reduced? Would she dare gamble with her own life?"*

*"Sure, Zoey promised to find me a dragon after this… but what if it never happens?"* Rita seized this line of thought, gently nudging it further.
