Chapter 551 Are You Insulting Me
Regarding Alex with mirth, Haruko assented, “Sure. What kind of bet do you proposes
Alex flashed her a faint smile and started. "As far as I know, your martial arts skills as Jetroina's Cardinal Amazon are ranked top ten in Jetroina Meanwhile, I'm just an insignificant person who's a nobody in Eurasia. How about this? If you can withstand three moves from me. I lose, and I'll gift this purple ginseng in my hands to you. Conversely, you lose if you can't do so. Of course, you've got to pay a certain price if you lose. Do you dare take this bet
"You're saying that you can defeat me in three moves? Are you insulting me?" Haruko's captivating eyes narrowed into slits, and an indistinct flash of murder flickered in her eyes.
As Jetroina's Cardinal Amazon, a top martial artist who was ranked top ten in Jetroina, the naturally couldn't accept being insulted by a slip of a Eurasian lad
Indeed, she felt that Alex was snubbing her.
Guffawing, Alex replied, "You may take it that way if you wish to do so. The question is, do you dare to take this bet?"
While the others weren't all that familiar with martial arts, they still knew about it despite having no such skills themselves.
Hence, they all felt that Alex was too arrogant to claim that he could defeat Haruko in three moves and was underestimating her.
No matter what, she's still one of the top ten martial artists in Jetroina, and there are few martial artists in Eurasia. He's undoubtedly courting death to blow his trumpet so much! For that reason, no one had high hopes for him.
Even Auriel murmured worriedly. "Master, she's exceedingly skilled. My grandfather once said that she ranks first among the Masters in Jetroina and that her master is the top powerhouse, Kuni Tokugawa. Therefore, the average Master may not necessarily be her match."
Alex merely smiled and replied, "That's the average Master, while I'm not."
Auriel stuck her tongue out at him. Seeing that her master was incredibly confident, she couldn't quite bring herself to voice her doubts anymore.
Haruko, on the other hand, was incensed at being looked down on by Alex again. "Fine, I agree,” she snapped. "What are your terms?"
"Don't be so rash, Haruko!" Takeshi promptly urged.
He simply couldn't shake off the feeling that Alex was no easy prey.
Despite appearing ordinary, the man seemed unfathomable. Thus, there was an indelible sense of dread within him.
"I know my limits, Takeshi. Besides, this b*stard insulting me is tantamount to insulting Jetroina's martial arts! I'll definitely cripple him today!" Haruko said to him in Jetroinian.
"I just sense something strange about him. He isn't an ordinary person, so don't be too impulsive," Takeshi advised, shaking his head.
"Trust me. Takeshi. I can surely defeat him. I can tell that he's indeed a martial artist, but he's far from being my match, Haruko maintained with conviction. Takeshi was silent for a moment. He knew that they had no choice other than to fight him if they wanted to procure the top-notch purple ginseng that day.
In the end, he nodded and reminded. "Be careful. Don't fall for his tricks"
Haruko nodded before she turned back to Alex.
Alex offered smilingly, "How about you give me ten billion if I lose?"
Ten billion? Has he lost his mind that he actually proposed such a bet? Does he think that Jetroinians are morons?
Hearing that, Haruko laughed derisively and scoffed, "Are you trying to exchange a million with ten billion from the Tokugawa family? That's a brilliant plan you have there."
Alex chuckled and amended, "All right, then. If I lose, I'll also give you ten billion. How about that?"
Haruko naturally wasn't convinced, nor did she believe that he would be able to come up with that much money.
However, she only wanted to cripple him and get the top-notch purple ginseng, so she agreed with a sneer, "Sure. It's decided, then."
As soon as her words fell, shock showed on everyone's faces.
None of them ever expected her to actually agree to that bet.
Gosh, it's a huge bet! The Tokugawa family has no problems forking out that sum, but what about Alex? He's just the live-in son-in-law of the Jennings family. Can he really pay up?
