'Damn! Color not surprised but this bitch actually got so guts!' I smiled at her overconfidence. 'Just hope it isn't just nonsense.'
"Alright then, how about we make a bet of this?" I say then suddenly think back at my own words.
'Nah… this kinda sounds similar to a-'
"Okay, Let's do it." Jennifer said, losing her own mind. "What do you want to bet o-"
"Yeah, forget about the bet." I interrupt, "It's not my style to win a bet taking advantage of other people who don't have the relevant knowledge."
But she took my word for cowardice, "So you're backing out huh? Too scared to go through it."
"Hey, I can go through with it. It's you who'll lose if you do this?"
Jennifer was about to smack talk so more when she realized, 'Why am I deliberately trying to get into a nonsensical bet? Maybe I too should back down before doing sothing stupid?'
'Still though… I finally have this guy stuck in his own ga! Don't really want to stick my foot in barbed wire but… just one more.'
"It's okay for . I have confidence in that you'll lose. So just admit that you're a chicken and I'll stop talking about it." She said, hoping Henry would shut up and admit defeat.
Instead, it had the opposite reaction.
Seeing that all the students were looking at with happy looks, as if wanting to apologize and embarrass myself.
I almost forgot that no matter what age or world I might be in, all humans have a second face, one that wants to see others failed and embarrassed.
I see Jennifer waiting there with a silent confident look. She wasn't soone who made outrageous statents like this, the reason for that is most probably .
But how I can stop myself when she gets soo stupid like this?
"Alright, I accept."
'Huh?' Jennifer went stumped as she heard Henry say, "I accept the bet. But only on one condition.
"What?" She asked, her eyes becoming sharp as a cat, 'If he talks about dating or anything too unbearable, then I don't care what the academy says, I'm kicking him out of here!'
"I don't want anything, if I win."
"…"
"HAH!"
The whole classroom literally shouted out that word. Jennifer looked at intently, trying to find out if I was lying or not. But I only had this poker look with an innocent smile, but it did not look innocent to her.
'What is this guy trying to achieve here?'
'Wanting nothing out of the bet, is he trying to put a trap or sothing? I can't be too careless with him when I know his identity.'
If Jennifer didn't know about Henry's real identity, she would have prompted it up as a guy trying to show his strong side by wanting nothing. But soone who has nurous businesses sprang up and suddenly beca a gang leader of a newly established notorious gang couldn't be so easy.
Not wanting to step into a trap, she said, "If that's so then I don't want anything If I win to-"
"Now now, miss Jennifer, don't make this bland." I stop her, "If I don't get anything and you also don't get anything, then wouldn't it be just a normal debate?"
"At least put a prize for the bet, isn't that right guys?" I say asking the students.
There were more than 60% of the students here who hated , so normally they wouldn't have joined with my words. But in the case of losing sothing valuable…
"Yes, Madam Jennifer, don't let this pompous bastard get away so easily."
"You must take justice and discipline him."
"Soone should finally teach him a bit about dignity."
Normally, Jennifer would have ignored this words as they may as well be her grave. But seeing so many in her support, she couldn't help but feel inclined to do it.
'But I won't fall so easily!'
"I'll only accept if you also place a prize, otherwise count out."
"Alright, since you're asking for a fair bet, that's what you'll get." I nod, "So what do want?"
"I've heard that Mr. Tax has a fine store for Sigmat Rings… is that correct?"
I smile, "You are correct, I do have… a few stores."
"Shit! Is he for real?" So students said.
"If he really isn't joking then wouldn't it an, he's richer than us?"
"Then that ans even with all of our money's combined we won't be able to catch up with him." A guy said as he clutched his head in agony.
'Well, that guy is correct.'
I now have so much money, that I guarantee nobody is richer in this kingdom, other than .
"So is that what you want? A ring… or multiple of them?" I ask as she shook her head.
"No, thanks for the generosity but I'll only be happy with one. A Pink One."
"Woah!" The students clamored at her demand as I smiled.
"So you want a pink one then?"
Jennifer nodded. 'With such an outrageous demand, he would have no choice but to back out of th-'
"You're on."
Seeing him accepting her demand so easily made the feeling of suspicious inside Jennifer beco bigger. This only ant that he had sothing big in plan for her.
"And what do you want in exchange?"
"A Casual Relationship."
"Pardon!" She asked, thinking of sothing quite graphic.
"Not in that sense you pervert, I ant a casual relationship. I won't call you ma'am nor behave respectfully to you. Instead it will be like we're old pals."
Jennifer almost sighed in relief.
"O- Oh!... Is that it?"
"That's it."
Before she could say anything else, the sound of bells ringing sounded.
"It seems our class is over." Jennifer said, picking up her stuff, "We will start our studies on the next class and make sure to check out the basics." With that she left, but not before giving a look at Henry.
I only gave her a smile that ticked her even more.
"Henry, Are you crazy!!" Wilson said shaking .
"No, I'm absolutely fine-"
"That went a bit beyond, don't you think." Said a familiar tone as I smile.
"And what would you have said that would have been reasonable?" I ask Arthur.
"I see no point in agitating her, Henry. Why do so when she could have been helpful to us?" He said, sticking with Jennifer.
Of Course, he would do so. One of the people here who would help him out with his vengeance is none other Jennifer. Her help would be massive for him, it's only reasonable he be supportive of her.
"I see you're not saying anything about her outrageous demand?"
"I know that too but I can't see any adva-"
"Forget about her, tell … how's your babe doing?"
"My babe… who are talking about?"
"I was talking about Miss Elizabeth, how is she?"
Arthur felt a bit restricted to speak about her, "She's fine."
"Where is she? I thought she'd be here with you." I deliberately say, knowing how it will jab at him.
"She's in Class A."
"Is that so… then shouldn't you too have fought against what Jennifer said?"
Arthur went quiet, deliberating on my words. He couldn't find any wrong about it, it was his goal to get to Class A too…
"Yes, But I will… Where did he go?" Arthur asked, not seeing Henry on his seat anymore.
"He went that way… saying sothing about Villain Fodder ti or sothing." Wilson said pointing to , who was going towards a certain soone.
…
"Hey… wanna have a fight with ?" I ask the guy in front of , The guy with Rank 1 in Class F.
