Chapter-72

—--------------

Seeing the rain of gold, her eyes widened as she looked at me and smiled amusingly while she opened her mouth to speak "You have a very interesting ability"

Am I being praised? I thought it would take a lot more treasure to impress her but it seems I was overthinking about it

She raised her arm as she grabbed some of the falling treasure in her hands and started to inspect it 

Her eyes flashed surprise as she observed the treasure more and more, and finally dropped it looking very Satisfied 

"Let's go outside" I suggest this mainly for her because this is her home and if we fought here then her treasure might get damaged

"I don't think that might be needed for such a trivial thing," she said as she rushed towards me and I have to say that her speed was kinda impressive but sadly in front still not fast enough

I raised my hand and blocked her claw without any problem, seeing this her eyes widened as she took back her claw and went for a kick 

And again with ease, I blocked her kick with the same hand that blocked her, but this time she didn't stop as she started to attack again and again non-stop with every attack getting fast, she even used her thick tail to attack 

But unfortunately for her, no matter how she tried to attack me, she wouldn't be able to land even a solid hit on me

After a while of her unsuccessfully attacks, she finally backed off as she created some distance between us and right after that she looked at me with a different look than the previous 

"It seems you really are something other than some people who can only talk," she said as she looked at me with seriousness in her eyes she continued "What's your name?"

"Jinwoo, what's yours?" I answered as I asked the same question to her since it's she asking for mine then it's only reasonable for me to know her too

"….You don't know me?" she asked with a stunned face like she didn't believe what I had just said

"Seeing your stupid expression, it seems what are you saying is true" she speaks again as she saw my confused look, as she continued "You came here to my place without knowing anything and directly challenge me to fight?"

To her question, I nodded my head confirming her statement. Well her confusion is understandable since her strength is very high compared to others here she should be a well-known figure in this place and I came here without even knowing her name

"Why?" She asked again with confusion, maybe because she want to know the reason for me to fight her

"Because you are strong" I replied to her question with an Appropriate answer since I can't simply disrespect her by saying I want to use her as a stress reliever

"Heh~" she grinned as soon she heard my response, and with a small smile on her face she opened her mouth to speak "You are right, only a strong opponent can help you improve"

*Sigh* I release a tired sigh seeing She take my words in the wrong way since I didn't come here to improve, but anyway, as long I get what I want I don't care much what she thinks

"Follow me," she said, making me wake up from my thoughts as I did what she said and followed her 

….. 

She brings me into a big area even though we are still inside the cave, this cave looks like more of a stadium because of its open space and size 

Honestly, I am surprised because I didn't expect this cave to be this big, I should have scanned this entire place from the moment I entered the cave

"Before we can start, let's have a bet to make this thing more interesting" she spoke up as she turned around and faced me with a cold smile on her face 

Bet? Haven't I already paid you for this duel and you want more? *Sigh* as expected from the dragon who's greed has no bounds

But it will be fun, it will be great to look at her face when she loses especially when she is the one suggested for this bet

"What bet?" I asked this with a curious tone since I was interested in what she was offering after all this dragon has many treasures, I was really interested in what she was betting

"Loser will become winner property" she replied as she pointed her finger towards me with a cold and arrogant face

Become property of others? Is she serious? She suggests making the loser slave to the winner, is she really that arrogant that she never thought of herself as losing… Dragons indeed are very arrogant creatures but at least she is better than 'him' who only wants to destroy

"I have to admit that your ability to create fascinated me, I hate to admit but those treasures you created were better than my treasure," She said with a bitter expression as took a short break and finally continued "So it's better to take you after all you will be worth item in my possession especially when your face is good to look at"

I have to say it, she is one hell of a greedy dragon but at least she is being honest unlike that 'guy' who tried to trick me in the middle of the battle, I still hate that 'Lizard'

"Now tell me are you confident in your strength?" she asked with a tone like she was mocking me and trying to tempt me into accepting her terms

'How childish' I couldn't help but say this in my mind after seeing what she trying to pull here but I guess that's her nature
