Chapter 344 343: Deal

344 343: Deal

After Divine's bold declaration to fight a Tier 5, the atmosphere between Corey, Calista, and Divine was charged with a mix of tension, disbelief, and anticipation.

Corey's brows furrowed in concern, his expression reflecting his worry for Divine's safety. He couldn't shake off the feeling of apprehension, knowing the immense risks involved in such a challenge. Yet, beneath the worry, there was also a sense of respect for Divine's bravery and determination. Divine himself exuded an air of confidence and resolve, his demeanor unwavering in the face of uncertainty. Despite the gravity of his decision, there was a sense of purpose in his stance, a determination to see his plan through to fruition. His gaze held a glint of determination tempered with a hint of excitement for the challenge ahead.

Calista, on the other hand, remained composed but intrigued. Her usually stoic demeanor betrayed hints of curiosity and calculation as she considered the implications of Divine's proposal. While she maintained her calm exterior, there was a flicker of excitement in her eyes, a recognition of the potential benefits and the thrill of the spectacle.

[You're offering quite the spectacle. If we were to arrange such a match, it would draw considerable attention and profit indeed. But the question remains: why should I agree to this?]

Although Calista knew the benefits she would gain from Divine's proposal, she was still skeptical.

She knew Divine was unique, but to be completely honest, she didn't have that much faith in Divine.

Fighting a tier 5 as a tier 3 was complete madness.

Assuming Divine chose to fight a weak tier 5, the chances of his survival would increase.

But would Divine be given the chance to fight a weak tier 5?

Absolutely not.

The Lord of the Central dislikes Divine, and his current condition is proof of how much the Central Lord dislikes him.

Aside from the Central Lord, she herself would not allow Divine to fight a weak tier 5.

Putting aside her prejudice towards Divine, she would prefer it if Divine fought a tier 5 that was not below average.

The fight had to be brutal, interesting, and extremely bloody.

She wanted a fight where Divine would struggle, and his life would be in constant danger.

She also did not want a fight where Divine was dominated to the point where he would not be able to put up a fight at all.

The fight had to be balanced and unbalanced, and she was a thousand percent sure that the remaining high-ranking Underworld officials would also have the same thoughts as her.

"At least you seem confident."

Divine laughed out loud, and then he smiled widely. "I never do something I'm not confident in accomplishing. I have a lot on the line, after all."

With his last words spoken in a soft whisper, Divine then released a sigh. He faced Corey, and then he smiled.

"Why don't you tell me what has happened since the time I was gone."

Divine said, and then Corey told him of every event that happened.

Especially his deals with Calista, the group's encounter with the House of Hellfire, how Neon was doing, and so on and so forth.

Hours passed, and both Corey and Divine were engrossed in their conversations.

Divine experienced various emotions as he listened to Corey's descriptions of events that had happened in the outside world while he was imprisoned.

Although Corey had an indifferent expression as he spoke, it was both intriguing and exhilarating for Divine since, apart from his torturers, it had been a long time since he had any sort of human interaction.

"I'm telling you, man. You have to lose your virginity! You can even lose it to Rosa. I'm one hundred percent sure she'll agree to have sex with you."

"Would you shut the fuck up and stop bringing up my virginity? Are you fucking gay?"

"How can I be gay you dimwit?! I want you to have sex with a woman! A WOMAN!"

Amongst the conversations the duo had, they also had conversations about Corey's virginity. A conversation which irked Corey to no end.

Time went by, and before Corey or Divine knew it, approximately ten hours passed, and the beeping of Corey's U-Watch disrupted the conversation of the duo.

The holographic figure of Calista appeared before them, and with a light smile, she said:

[Your request to fight a Tier 5 was approved. And it'll take place during the time period of the battle against the chosen ones.]

[So, be glad Divine, you're a free man now. Though, you'll be under probation.]
