"So which participant have you decided on… the person working here is already annoyed," Krista Dragoon said as she rushed Zen to place the bet.
She was annoyed that many people were ogling her with a lewd and lustful expression.
Although she can easily beat the crap out of them, she refrained from doing so as making a scene here would ruin her reputation.
'Tch, these people better not let me meet them outside in a hidden alley otherwise, I'll make sure to stab their eyeballs out,' Krista Dragoon cursed inwardly as she made sure to memorize each and every single face that dared to ogle at her.
Meanwhile, the worker behind the counter started sweating nervously as he wondered why Krista Dragoon would put him in a tight situation.
'Princess Krista, I have never offended you so why would you accuse me of rushing this gentleman,' The worker cried inwardly as he could feel Zen's fierce expression at him.
Zen would obviously not get mad at Krista Dragoon for rushing him but the worker in front of him was different.
He wasn't his friend nor ally so why should he give him some respect and show a smile at him.
Zen sneaked a glance to make sure Krista Dragoon was not paying attention at the moment as he quickly walked up to the worker and asked in a low tone where only he could hear it.
"I heard you were rushing me to place the bet. Do I look like some pushover to you?" Zen asked as he snapped his finger lightly and the BloodJade Flame quickly crept behind the counter as the temperature started rising.
The worker glanced at the BloodJade Flame in horror as he quickly shook his head in response.
"T-This lowly worker does not dare to rush any customers in here." The worker quickly explained their duty and that they would never rush a customer in this place.
After all, every customer eligible to enter here is a well-known noble or has a powerful background and no one would be stupid enough to offend them as that is asking for a death sentence.
Zen nodded his head but his expression soon turned dark as he said, "Then what you mean to say is that Krista is the one lying to me?"
The worker wanted to cry and quit the job as he does not even have the guts nor audacity to accuse the princess of the Jade Kingdom.
No matter what answers he gives… death was the only outcome of all of it and he wondered if he offended Zen anywhere before in his past life.
'Heaven… why are you playing with my life like this?' The worker started asking heaven about his misfortune in this event.
Alas, heaven did not respond to him at all as he was forced to deal with Zen and the BloodJade Flame that seemed eager to burn him alive into a crisp without any hesitation as long as Zen commanded it to do so.
"You still haven't answered me, little worker," Zen said impatiently as he waited for the worker to respond.
"N-No, it was most definitely not Princess Krista who rushed you and if I were to find out who dared to rush our honorable customer in making their bet then I shall strangle them alive," The worker quickly shouted loudly, causing the people nearby to turn their head to look at Zen's direction.
"What's going on? Aren't you placing your bet?" Krista Dragoon, who also heard the loud commotion, walked up to Zen and asked him.
Zen smiled briefly at Krista Dragoon and said, "Nothing happened, the worker was just agitated to hear the money I'm betting so he yelled accidentally."
"Is that so? Then you should hurry it up because the first participant you chose is about to go next." Krista Dragoon nodded her head and started to walk away to a corner.
Afterward, she cast an illusion barrier to block off the other people's eyesight to glance at her as she wouldn't be able to control herself in creating a scene any further if it keeps going on.
Meanwhile, Zen turned around to face the worker with a fiery expression.
"Are you trying to get Krista over to save your sorry ass?" Zen asked in anger as the BloodJade Flame was merely a millimeter away from burning him.
The worker quickly shook his head and tears started forming in his eyes. "T-That was never my intention, gentleman. I-I was just too nervous and raised my voice accidentally."
Zen narrowed his gaze as he tried to sense his emotion and realized he was really speaking the truth.
'Damn it, how come everyone turns into a coward in front of me?' Zen cursed inwardly as he retrieved the BloodJade Flame.
Afterward, Zen stared at the worker and said, "I want to bet 1 billion spirit stones at each of the participants I'm about to place in."
"1-1 billion spirit stones?" The worker stuttered as he held a gawking expression at Zen.
Even though many customers here were wealthy, none of them have ever dared to bet over 1 billion spirit stones in here since the money did not belong to them but their family.
Thus, to risk losing over 1 billion spirit stones was something that no nobles would do in case they lose their position as the heir.
Zen was irritated by the worker's slow action in placing the bet into order as he quickly shouted, "Hurry up and place the betting for me already. I want to place 1 billion spirit stones in each of these three participants."
Zen pointed his finger at the three participants that were in position for the next life and death battle as he slowly described their appearance and build.
The worker tried to confirm if Zen was sure about his decision on betting 3 billion spirit stones at one go but decided to stay silent.
He did not wish to enrage Zen any further as he quickly finalized the betting for Zen and handed him a verification card.
"This is the verification card to prove that you have betted 3 billion spirit stones on 3 different participants." The worker was relieved to finally finish the paperwork necessary for Zen.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
