24 Lazulis Test Began (1/2)

”Sorry but I am not into martial arts anymore. Try me again if there is a fitness contest. I will happily join then.”

”But….”

”No buts. My word is final.”

”I will join,” said Zohaifa breaking the sh.e.l.l of silence he was in ever since the humiliation. ”I will give you all the money if I win. This will be how I repay you.”

Lazuli mockingly grinned at him and replied, ”You think you can win! I only asked Lapis because his strength is similar to mine.”

”Actually, my strength surpa.s.ses yours. Only our martial arts are similar. Though you have more fight IQ,” interfered Lapis but did not get attention from anyone. So Zohaifa continued,

”I can understand that. He has trained me, after all. But won't our chance of victory rise by at least 1% if I compete? Luck is also a matter, right?”

Lazuli remained silent for a second and thought about it.

”Your point is logical. But I will need to test your skills to see if your chance of winning is 0.05% or 0.0001%. At the end of the day, there is still the small money we have to spend on behalf of you for the ticket.”

”Not that again. You are heavily underestimating me. Is the enemy that strong?”

”No. In fact, the problem is that there might be none in the tournament who can compete with me. So, the insignificant amount of increase in luck might not be worth the money from the ticket. Now, are you ready to take the test?”
