In the soft-toned walls and under the morning sun streaming through the large windows, the conference room was bathed in a warm glow. The shadows dancing on the plants seemed like fairies waltzing.

At this moment, this usually most quiet and steady room has become exceptionally lively!

Unlike this overall atmosphere, Adam, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window and talking with Lance, seemed slightly stunned.

He didn't expect Ranch to actually agree, and agree so readily.

It's just a small wager, after all.

Could this be the confidence of a prodigy cultivated by the great oracle Loren

The hospital director can make all the decisions.

"Ranciere's tone doesn't sound like a joke at all, it even seems to be irrefutable."

Adams thought carefully, the Lance who had recently helped Grand Magus Lorens destroy Ivannos, the Ruinous Paladin under the command of their nemesis, certainly had the capability.

He believes that since Ranch made the promise in front of so many teachers and students, he will surely keep it.

And Lanchi will likely make a significant request in return, because the promise Lanchi made is no small feat.

But.

If there was ever a chance to get that playboy, Lorenzo, to personally apologize to Juliana, Adams would pull out all the stops!

This was also the only thing he, as the current strongest third-year student of Arlolan Royal Academy, could do for Knight Commander Juliana.

His opponent, Lanci, though possessing a composure uncommon for someone his age, was rumored to have suffered a defeat at the Ikereth Academy. It is said that during a one-on-one duel, he lost to Tszelvini, a golden challenger from the Knight's Institute's third year.

In addition, the senior students of the Academy of Wisdom also honestly told Adams that Lance did not single-handedly defeat the Destroyer Saintess, Adeline. It was a combined effort with all the challengers from the Shadow World who worked together to kill Adeline. This showed that Adams, who could duel against the Corrupted Holy Son, still had a considerable gap in hard power compared to them.

Therefore, Adams was certain that he could absolutely beat Lance in many of the competition items.

However, Adams wouldn't stoop to such tactics. He would choose a fair contest that would allow both Lance and the Academy of Wisdom to lose gracefully.

"What are your requirements then"

Adam's face was grave. He asked,

"If I win, I want you to ask Knight Juliana to come to Herton Royal City and have a date with Dean Lauren for a day."

Ranch smiled faintly and lightly stroked the cat's back, saying,

"Lanche, you did great!"

"We have to win! Give Dean Loren a big surprise!"

After his words fell, even the murmur among the teachers in the meeting room boiled over.

"……"

Originally, she had planned to stop and greet Teacher Teresa from Lanchi. Upon hearing this, she immediately lowered her head and frantically looked around, not daring to raise it.

She was speechless at the atmosphere, and Lance chose to go with the popular approach. At this moment, whoever stopped Lance would definitely be blocked by everyone!

Amidst the thunderous applause throughout the conference room, Adams heard Lynch's request with a hint of bewilderment.

Immediately, he shook his head violently, refusing.

"No, I can't do this."

Adams knew the two requests sounded equal.

But he couldn't possibly promise Juliana to let her go on a date with Lauren, and he certainly couldn't accept that happening!

"Can't you..."

Ranch was silent for a moment, gently stroking the cat in his hand. He didn't seem disappointed at all, just observed Adam's expression for a while.

"I didn't expect Adams to think so highly of me. I thought I was sure to lose… Maybe I should consider my suggestion and have a competition with nothing at stake"

Lance chuckled innocently, as if he had no desire to win at all.

"...."!!

Listening to Lanchi's words of concern, Adams couldn't help but clench his fists.

He came to the Sage's Academy with the intention of challenging them, and besides, he never thought he would lose to Lance!

Thinking back to the rumors he'd heard about Lauren this morning, Adams just couldn't take it anymore!

"……"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The cat boss, held in Lance's arms, looked up at Lance with a puzzled expression.

It felt like Ranch's words were incredibly friendly and polite, but there was inexplicably a strong matcha flavor to them!

No, this kid should be naturally pure.

The cat boss thought to himself and continued to disguise himself as an ordinary cat, lying quietly in Ranch's hand. It must have overthought things, how could there be a green tea male

Look again.

"Or perhaps, Mr. Adams, you could contact Miss Juliana using communication magic I'll speak with her then"

Ranch, seeming to sense Adam's predicament, thoughtfully suggested.

He knew Adams was truly caught between a rock and a hard place. Adams didn't want to miss this opportunity for Lord Lauren to apologize directly to Lady Juliana, but he also couldn't agree to Lynch's terms.

If Miss Julianna could personally endorse this wager, you shouldn't have any trouble with it, should you

"Lynch added, asking,"

When he encounters someone in need, Lance always lends a helping hand. His charitable acts are always aimed at fulfilling everyone's requests.

"That's good."

Adam hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

He knew this was a chance to get off.

Adams was certain that no matter how accommodating Lynch's attitude might be, the part of his request to challenge Julianna to a bet would only result in Julianna immediately cutting off communication.

At that time, if the bet cannot be fulfilled, naturally both parties can smoothly take a step back and discuss the bet again.

Next.

Lanche and Adams came to a sophisticated magical device in the center of the conference room.

This is the terminal of a magical framework for ultra-long-distance communication. With this magic device, it can be relayed through stations set up by the South Continent Kingdoms Union within each country, achieving real-time connections that are farther than any other communication magic.

Adam inserted his sixth-level magic card, "Ultra Long-Distance Communication Program," into the device. He skillfully operated the control panel's crystal screen, establishing a connection with the Alolan Kingdom.

In the hushed silence of the conference room, Adams made contact with King Avalor's forces and waited for Juliana to answer.

Not long after, a haughty and brilliant female voice echoed through the receiver in Adam's hand.

"Adams What brings you to Henton Kingdom"

"Madam Juliana, I am Adams, currently at the Iktheria Academy..."

Adam wasn't sure how to describe what happened.

"Leave it to me, Adams."

Lance smiled and took the receiver from Adam's hand.

And then he said:

Miss Julianna, I am a student of Lauren. Adams challenged us to a contest. If Adams wins, Headmaster Lauren will come to the Alolan Kingdom to apologize to you. If I win, Headmaster Lauren hopes that you will visit the Heston Kingdom, and he still wants to apologize to you in person. However, if you can forgive him, he hopes to invite you to tour the capital city and tell you many important things he has been wanting to say.

"……"

It seems that the other side has been silent for a long time.

I agreed.

After saying that, Julianna on the other end hung up the communication.

At that moment, all the students and teachers in the conference room jumped to their feet with cheers of delight.
