Chapter 231: An Ominous Feeling
Saaya looked at Karoso’s expressionless face, filled with frustration. But losing is losing; there’s nothing more to say. In the second game, it was purely a meltdown; he was outplayed.
"Your Highness, I apologize for the embarrassment," Saaya stood up.
"No problem, your brother’s way of playing cards is quite amusing," Easley said with a smile. "Why not watch until the end?"
Saaya’s face turned a shade of anger.
However, this was still the Second Prince’s invitation, and he dared not refuse.
The biggest difference between Saaya and Karoso is that Karoso may not be so accommodating when facing people like this.
Of course, this is also related to their different upbringings and the resources they can access.
When Karoso got into trouble, Osiris sent two divisions and his most trusted Red to rescue him.
If something happens to Saaya, Osiris will at most send two people to rescue him.
The different treatments caused the two people’s confidence to vary.
Karoso has the ability to represent Canglang Province and go to war with the Empire. Although defeat is certain, as long as he drags the kingdom down with him, a series of chain reactions may unfold, and it’s uncertain who will win.
As for Saaya? He absolutely does not qualify to represent Canglang Province…
"Oh, let me go in and take a look; don’t block me…"
At that moment, a lovely female voice could be heard nearby.
Elizabeth squeezed through the crowd and ran over.
She heard that someone used a Thief Card to win two matches in a row, and her interest was instantly piqued.
After all, being a thief, she also wanted to have a powerful deck of cards.
As a result, when Elizabeth saw Karoso, she was stunned.
How did he end up on this ship?
Elizabeth was here completely to do the opposite of what was expected.
She thought that Russell would definitely secretly send someone to protect her, making it hard for her to escape his watchful eyes.
Since that was the case, why not sneak onto Russell’s ship for a bit of darkness under the light?
Once they reached the Pande Empire, Russell’s reach would not extend there.
Like the Kingdom of Persia, which is also quite traditional, it has some industry, with a few planes and tanks here and there.
But the Pande Empire is the purest Kingdom of Knights, so traditional that it feels old-fashioned; forget tanks—they don’t even have guns.
When entering the Pande Empire, no weapons are allowed.
A gun dealer like Russell is certainly not connected to the Pande Empire.
Elizabeth’s role is still that of a singer; when evening comes and the dinner begins, it is her time to perform.
"Karoso?" Elizabeth covered her mouth in surprise.
"Miss Elizabeth?" Karoso was taken aback when he saw Elizabeth, "What are you doing here?"
"I-I’m just a singer…" Elizabeth felt a bit guilty.
She remembered what Russell had said before she left, "You wouldn’t want to eat tender grass, would you…"
Looking at Karoso’s not very tall figure and youthful face, Elizabeth felt even more uneasy.
I have to say, even though Karoso is young, he is quite handsome.
Nowadays, the kind of villain that looks gloomy or has a face full of muscle is no longer in style; a handsome, strong, and tragic character like Karoso is the new standard for villains.
"Oh, really? What a coincidence! I have some matters to attend to with Bishop Celica in the Kingdom of Knights," Karoso said as he stood up.
Easley raised an eyebrow.
Is this Karoso traveling with Red Bishop?
It seems he is not only talented; Grand Duke Osiris takes notice of him, so he must have other abilities as well.
Alita stood by, and with Bishop Celica here, it should not just be Grand Duke Osiris’s influence.
Celica’s status is on par with the king, even higher than Grand Duke Osiris.
Moreover, the king of the Kingdom of Persia seems rather ordinary, but Celica is a powerful bishop.
Osiris may challenge the king, but he might not be able to stand up to Celica, who represents the strongest Church of the Dawn Goddess.
"Hehehe… what a coincidence indeed…" Elizabeth thought that Karoso had been following her onto the ship, but it seems it was just a coincidence now.
My goodness, is fate really this wonderful?
But, but is he too small?
"Hmm, it is indeed a coincidence," Karoso nodded.
"Did you really defeat the Explosive Deck Thief and the Quick Attack Thief they mentioned earlier?" Elizabeth asked carefully.
"That’s right." Karoso thought about Elizabeth’s idea, moved closer to her, and whispered, "If you want this deck, I can give you a discount since we are friends."
Karoso’s breath lightly brushed Elizabeth’s ear, and she felt a tickle that made her shiver a little.
"Ahem, there are so many people here," Elizabeth quickly pushed Karoso away.
Karoso was a bit confused; does the crowd have anything to do with buying cards from you?
Seeing Elizabeth looking flustered, Alita quickly grabbed Karoso by the back of his collar and pulled him back to her side.
"Friend?" Alita asked.
"Hmm." Karoso nodded.
"We can catch up later, there are important matters to discuss." Alita patted Karoso’s back.
Alita thought that Karoso and Neymar were meant to be together; that woman seemed like a little fairy and looked much older than Karoso.
Besides, her outfit did not look like that of a serious person, how could she compare to Neymar?
"Okay." Karoso raised his hand, "Next."
[What is Elizabeth doing here?]
[Oh no, I have a bad feeling about this.]
[Elizabeth and Sophia together, it feels like something is about to happen.]
[But there is no story.]
[Have you all forgotten about the event that needs to be finished today? It’s Elizabeth’s turn!]
[Elizabeth, Russell, there will definitely be a main character coming after this…]
[No way, Sophia!]
[Seriously, what a coincidence?]
[Why is it not even four o’clock yet? If the event doesn’t start soon, I’ll be really upset.]
[Hurry and start the event! We need to know the story to help Master Karoso.]
……
Karoso relied on Explosive Deck Thief, T7 Hunting, and the King Slayer, and easily made it to the top eight.
Elizabeth originally wanted to leave to avoid suspicion, but the allure of Thief Card was simply too great for her.
Whether it was regicide or bursting cards, the temptation for her was truly unmatched.
Especially with Karoso’s card skills, he was being guided by top players; although he lost, it was rare, and he had never been defeated in a best of three.
In this match, Karoso revealed his bottom card directly.
He couldn’t just let 『』 help him without getting involved himself; he also needed to build excitement.
When they reached five Mana Crystals, Karoso quietly took out his bottom card; he was using a Nature Mage deck.
[Name: Emperor Goufuh]

[Star Level: 5]
[Rank: Golden Legend]
[Class Restriction: Nature Mage]
[Description: Increase your maximum mana to twenty, receive an empty Mana Crystal, draw a card]
