Luck is a Charm

Chapter 223: The Condition

"Hurry up and state your condition already!" Daphne Camellia shouted to rush Zen when he continued to stare at her.

Although she doesn't know why she felt happy yet angry at the same time from his gaze.

'This goddamn Zen must have placed some magic spell on me when I was unguarded,' Daphne Camellia cursed inwardly as she believed her current emotion is because of a spell.

Meanwhile, Zen twitched his mouth slightly when he was pondering on what condition to make.

'I didn't even take this match seriously so I never thought of one Ugh, what a pain,' Zen sighed inwardly as he glared at Daphne Camellia with a solemn expression.

"Strip your clothes," Zen ordered, causing Daphne Camellia to almost fall down to the ground for his sudden outburst.

"S-Strip my clothes" Daphne Camellia repeated his word to make sure she didn't hear wrong.

However, her face soon started blushing and as she glared at Zen, "You're a shameless scoundrel and a pervert. H-How could you ask a young maiden like me to strip my clothes?"

Zen shrugged his shoulders as he couldn't believe that she didn't understand his hidden meaning.

He has only ordered her to strip her clothes so even all she needed to do is remove that ribbon around her neck to complete his condition.

Never once did he say to strip all of her clothes so Zen could only smile bitterly at her horniness.

"You're the pervert one, Daphne Camellia. When did I ever say to strip naked?" Zen exclaimed as he leered around her body parts.

Daphne Camellia feels like exploding him with multiple magic spells for the humiliation she suffered again.

"Hmph, more like your tone of speech and gaze is obvious for anyone to know your condition is not as simple as a single cloth." Daphne Camellia snorted as she turned around and prepared to leave.

If she was to stay here any longer then she was afraid they were going to fight and in her mind, there was no way she could beat him when he casually decimated a mass amount of people heads off at the same time.

"Heh, you don't have to be this angry. I already thought of the condition for winning this alchemist face-off," Zen shouted right as Daphne Camellia was about to open the doorknob.

Daphne Camellia stopped her movement and tilted her head slightly to stare at Zen.

"It better not be some nonsense again otherwise, I will really attack you even if I can't beat you," Daphne Camellia said with a threatening gaze.

"You don't have to be this serious since I'm not asking for your body at all." Zen said and continued, "It's not like I haven't seen a naked woman before and heck, they were all more beautiful than you."

Daphne Camellia's brows twitched slightly when he directly dissed her appearance and compared her to others.

However, before she could even interrupt him, Zen continued talking and said, "For my condition, I want you to bring me to meet your Patriarch, there is something I would like to discuss with him alone."

Daphne Camellia narrowed her eyes in suspicion. "Why do you want to meet my father? Don't you know my father already heard the news of you humiliating his son in public and can't wait to grind your bones?"

And she continued, "Yet here you are, asking me to bring you to my father at this critical time. Let me warn you, my father is an advanced mage and not some tom, dick, and harry in the streets where you can thrash as you please."

Zen was slightly surprised by her kind gesture in secretly warning him that his condition may be suicidal.

'Heh, this is surely getting more and more interesting,' Zen exclaimed inwardly as he shook his head.

"It's fine, you'll just have to arrange a meeting for us and the bet is considered done," Zen said softly.

He wasn't even afraid of Daemon Kaiso who was known as an aggressive old man, let alone a patriarch of the Camellia family.

'I also have a platinum card as my ace to force him to submit if he wants to make things difficult,' Zen sneered inwardly as he touched his spatial ring lightly.

After experiencing the dreadful power of the platinum card, Zen has decided to never lend it to anyone because the restriction from the platinum card could only be negated if one has a platinum card as well.

This information was told to him by Eleanor when he finished pumping a huge load into her pussy.

However, Daphne Camellia wasn't qualified to know this information yet so she could only grit her teeth in anger.

"Since you want to seek death then I won't care about it anymore," Daphne Camellia shouted and opened the doorknob.

Before leaving, her voice echoed the final time, "I will tell father about it so you can probably visit today or tomorrow but be prepared to have a coffin ready to receive your dead body."

Zen was rendered speechless by her lack of confidence in him. 'Haven't I shown enough power to indicate that I'm strong enough to compete against those advanced mages?'

Shaking his head, Zen decided to go back to his room to study some more spells.

Sometime later, while Zen was concentrating in the room, he was called by Angela. 

"Zen, are you inside?" Angela knocked on the door slightly and asked softly.

"Yes, I'm inside, you can come in," Zen replied swiftly as he stopped his studying.

Angela nodded and opened the door as she looked at Zen with a bit of a complicated expression.

Zen raised his eyebrow slightly when he noticed her expression as he waited for her to speak.

Meanwhile, Angela took a deep breath before mustering up her courage to inform Zen about the recommendation for the upcoming mage tournament.

"The recommendation letter from the Kaiso family Krista has said that you must enter the imperial court to get it from her." Angela said with a solemn expression.
