Chapter 311: A bet (1/2)

”Uh, Kesha, it's rude to insult someone,” Almina said, trying to sound as gentle as possible to not offend her friend.

”Sorry, best friend, it's just a slip of the tongue,” Kesha replied.

Almina sighed and nodded. Then she looked at Yman. ”Uhm…” when he noticed that she was about to say something, Yman smiled at Almina and thought, 'It must be hard to have a friend like that.'

He didn't wait for Almina's words as he already had a gist of what she was going to say, ”Don't worry, it's nothing, actually,” honestly, he didn't even care about Kesha. She was free to say and free to think whatever she wanted. ”In fact, she was just voicing her disagreement, which is normal,” he added.

Though it was strange to intrude in a conversation you're not part of. But Yman did not voice it out. ”Regardless, I wonder what she thinks about the match on the stage,” he continued while sending a glance at Kesha.

”I don't care about the match. That's what I would say, however. Your friend will lose this match. You will know the reason later, so don't ask me why, hmph!” Kesha outright stated while looking away.

After hearing it, Yman's eyes glinted. ”Oh, interesting. Hehe. So Miss Kesha wanted to make a bet with me, huh,” he said in a depressing tone.

”When did I say that?!” Kesha exclaimed. She wondered how this person came to conclude that she wanted to bet against him.

Kesha glared at him. However, she noticed Yman's mouth extended to both sides, ”Since we have opposite opinions? So, Miss Kesha has no confidence in her words, huh,” Yman said in an asking tone while shaking his head in disappointment.

”Wha--!” Kesha gawked. For some reason, she disliked that expression on his face.

While shaking his head, ”Although it was fine to disagree with someone else's opinion, it was rude to intrude into a conversation while stating your fact which you can't uphold,” Yman said in a mutter, but it was loud enough for them to hear.

”T-That's true!”

Everyone glanced at the person who suddenly exclaimed in agreement to Yman's words.

”M-Maku…?” Kesha called her name.

Unexpectedly, it was one of Almina's party members. The girl who took the support role in their party and the transferred students. It was the first time Yman saw her. So he had no idea who she was.

Even Maku herself had no idea about Yman. Though, she had now. Especially when their leader Almina hugged him that time. It surprised her. Her initial thought was, Yman was Almina's close relative.

But now she understood. He was Miss Almina's lover!

Aside from Almina, the others in the party seemed to dislike him. When one time she asked about him from them, she got a weird reply. Not one of them was talking good about him. Especially Miss Kesha.

Yman looked at Maku. There was some holy aura around her. Maybe it was only his feeling, but she was exuding a holy spirit aura. Like someone who studied the teaching of the church.

”Well, this time, I also think he had a point. Sorry, Miss Kesha.”

”Dianne too,” said Kesha in surprise.

”Fufu! Isn't it exciting! Let me in, in that betting!”

”Jami too?!”

”Wait, Jami, why are you here?” Almina exclaimed with her face formed like this (>_<), and her arms and hands were flapping at both sides like bird's wings.

”Haha, sorry Leader, but I'm fine now,” said Jami while forcing a laugh.

”Geez!”

Amina sighed.
