610 Chapter 610
Eric could actually sense it that Young Miss Ling was barely holding herself back from breaking out of the bathroom and coming to the table to ask for explanations from her good friend.
Young Miss Long understood that Eric was just pushing her deeper and deeper, but she didn't know why. He couldn't have noticed Young Miss Ling's presence, could he!?
That should be impossible!
After all, Eric was just a Realm 1 evolver and his sense had yet to reach that point. Or could it be that he doubted something!?
"Eric, you know very well that this isn't true! While you did promise me to win, and we did decide like that, you didn't tell me anything about your skills! Why are you lying at my face like this!?
What are you trying to achieve!?"
Still, even though she had no idea why Eric was playing this game like this, she didn't have any other way but to push forward and absolve herself from any sort of guilt.
"Huh!? You surely know how to play with words partner, not accepting the truth, and treating it as a lie!
Well, then let me ask you this, what is my occupation in the Long Family Mansion!?"
Young Miss Long had no idea where Eric was trying to come out with this, but she didn't have any other choice but to answer him right now and insist on her truth.
"You are a gardener, why are you asking me this!?"
"What is the main duty of a gardener!?"
"To take care of plants and flowers!"
"Very well up to here, then in order to take care well of these plants and flowers, what should the gardener know!?"
"What!?"
"Let me make it easier for you, is it necessary or not for a good gardener to recognize, understand, and know everything about the plants and flowers he has to take care of!?"
"Yes, but…"
"The same could be said if the flowers or plants are poisonous, right!? In fact, in these cases, he should know and be even more cautious as he doesn't end up like a poisoned corpse, right!?"
"Right, but what does that have to do with this!?"
"Since I am a gardener and everything I said is necessary for a gardener, then isn't it logical for you to know and understand this partner!?
Furthermore, many times during our discussion I have tried to gain your interest by expressing my great knowledge of herbs and plants!
So, how could you say I have never told you about this!? How could you be so clueless!?"
Young Miss Long had yet to comprehend just how the hell the situation had turned like this once again, where the guilty party was her and not Eric!
She only knew that Eric seemed to have the skills to jump around the topic like a frog, make a mess out of it, and then claim that he had solved the same mess.
She truly didn't know what to think of this guy any longer, while Young Miss Ling was even clenching her teeth inside the bathroom.
Eric couldn't help but feel like he was having a great time by planting seeds of doubt and distrust among these two beauties, but he needed a reason to make a break.
After all, only like that would Young Miss Ling be able to come out of the bathroom and have a fight with his partner.
'Bing~!'
"Round 2 matchups are ready, participants are required to step into the Arena once again!"
Right at that time, he received a pleasant surprise, as the bell of the fight starts again rang below, and he needed to go as someone who had already surpassed the first round.
"I will be leaving now partner, just enjoy my performance!"
With that said, Eric didn't want for any extra words, as he stood up and left. Right as he got out though, he could hear the bathroom door explode and the enraged Young Miss Ling coming out of it.
'What more do you have to say!?'
'Little sister Ling, you can't believe his words, that guy is a truly poisonous snake, he…'
'Shut the hell up bitch, isn't enough the fact that you humiliated me, and killed my best fighter that I had paid so much to enter this damned Arena!
This time I am leaving it at this Young Miss Long but remember that when you see me again next time, we will be enemies!
I don't need a backstabbing bitch like you behind!"
With that said, Young Miss Long immediately stormed out and left the luxurious private box, while Young Miss Long cursed under her voice,
"Fu*cking bi*tch thinking she is something just because she is a bit useful! I will teach her a good lesson once I am done with this bastard gardener!
Just you wait!"
Even though Young Miss Long was thinking that she said these words in her total privacy, only to herself and her maid, the truth was that there was another person who eavesdropped, and that guy was Eric.
He wasn't surprised or scared at Young Miss Long's words, as he had been expecting something like this, after all.
As for the second part, her threat, he didn't really put her in his eyes. After all, he had been able to escape and run away from stronger enemies.
Even if he didn't win, he wouldn't die there either! With these thoughts, in mind, he quickly arrived at the cage and entered inside as coincidentally this was his match.
It looked a bit wretched and unfair to throw him directly inside the cage, the moment he arrived, but no one would stand up for him, and he didn't really care about this.
In fact, he was hoping that this would give him weaker odds in the battle later, and he would make another shitload of money.
Unfortunately, the moment that he saw his opponent, he understood that it would be impossible for him to have weaker odds, as the man in front of him was just like him a Realm 1 evolver.
It was just a piece of cake for him to deal with the opponent this time, as he decided to not use his strength and seal his Realm and strength to be similar to that of the opponent.
Of course, this didn't mean that he had softened and decided to do this job easier, no! He had just done something like this to train himself.
After all, evolved fighters were rare to encounter, and now that he had a crowd of them, he could easily fight to his heart's content and temper himself through sweat, blood, and pain.
With these thoughts in mind, he didn't use any kinds of poison, as he just jumped in front of the guy, and then said in an authoritative voice,
"Punch me!"
"What!?"
The opponent couldn't help but look at him as if he was a lunatic because only such guys would do and say what he did.
"I said punch me, you wuss!"
'Bannnnnngggggggggg~!'
'Cough…, cough…, cough….'
Being taunted like that was too much for the opponent as he didn't waste time any longer and sent a full-power punch towards Eric's guts.
Eric immediately was thrown towards the bars of the cage, and despite crashing 'softly' he still suffered quite the damage and couldn't help but cough blood a few times.
What most people were unaware to see, was that his second spurt of blood seemed a bit darkish in color and suspicious.
Well, Eric didn't linger much on that information, as immediately he placed his arms in front of him to protect himself from the opponent inside the cage.
'Bang…, bang…, bang…'
The opponent was still hitting with the same strength and power, but his intensity and rate of punching were lowering, clearly indicating that he was getting tired.
Seeing that it was impossible to rely on his strength and determination to break Eric's defense, the guy decided to use his trump card, it was two hidden knives under his sleeves.
Unhesitant, the opponent stabbed forward with both knives, intending to pierce Eric's heart, and put an end to his stupidity.
Unfortunately, this wasn't sufficient to go against Eric, as he immediately took a step forward, taking the enemy by surprise, and then a turn to his right.
Like that, he had successfully dodged the two knives, but he wasn't going to just defend, as he just strongly pushed the opponent on the back of his head, and the guy fell headfirst to the ground.
Of course, the battle wasn't over yet, as Eric immediately took one of the guy's knives, and then rushed towards him like a lightning bolt with the intention of cutting his throat.
Even though he wanted to make a move and save his own ass, at the end of the day he was unable to do it and could only obediently leave with the Grim Reaper.
Once he was done with the opponent, Eric raised his head to have a good look at the crowd, and especially the luxurious private boxes.
Things were proceeding extremely well, with the fighting, and his wins, but unfortunately, someone had managed in poisoning him.
Even the Legacy System had been unable to notice when he was poisoned and by who, but it didn't matter right now.
As at the moment he had to think of the shortest and best way to heal himself and recover, as he still had another match in less than an hour!
'Damn~! It looked like that bi*tch was tired of living, as she had made the biggest mistake of messing with him….
