Chapter 579 All Is Fair In Love And War [Part 2]

She never even bothered asking about his family members, his goals in life, and what he wished to do in the future.

In the past, all of these details were something she considered irrelevant. But now, she was starting to see past the small bubble that had become her comfort zone.

“Well, this isn’t really gambling,” Lyall insisted. “This is just a bet because that way, this fight will become more interesting.”

“Then, what do you have in mind?” Ethan asked.

He knew that this was the only way that he and Lyall would be able to see eye to eye.

“Let’s first talk about what you want to happen if you win,” Lyall smirked. “What do you want, Ethan?”

“I want you to stop being so clingy and possessive of me.”

“That’s it? I thought you’re going to say that I should stay out of your life if you win. Heh~ it seems that you’re not opposed to having me around.”

“You are Lily’s sister,” Ethan replied. “How can I say such a thing to her family?”

Lyall smirked, knowing that Ethan was a softie when it came to people. The only time he\'d act merciless was when he was fighting against opponents that he had to kill no matter what.

Lyall was there when Ethan took Constantine away to kill him.

That alone was enough to tell her that Ethan was someone who wouldn’t hesitate to kill once his hands had been forced by circumstances.

“Then what about you?” Ethan asked. “What do you want from me if you win?”

“I want to become your lover,” Lyall declared. “Is what I’d like to say, but I changed my mind. Right now, I still don’t know if I am willing to spend my lifetime with you. So, let’s settle for this instead.”

Lyall raised her hand and pointed her finger at the young man in front of her.

“If I win, you will take me out on a date, and you need to take it seriously,” Lyall stated. “I’ve never been on a date before, so I want to know what it feels like.”

Ethan was genuinely surprised. He was expecting that Lyall would really demand that he made her his lover if she won against him.

“Very well. I accept your bet,” Ethan replied.

“Good,” Lyall said as a devilish smile appeared on her face. “Let’s get this fight over with.”

On the stands of the Coliseum, several individuals sat to observe the match.

Luna, Lily, Lilian, Lilith, and Emma, sat beside each other.

(A/N: To this day, I don’t know why all of their names started with the letter L. This is purely a coincidence kekeke!)

(E/N: If that’s what you need to tell yourself to be able to sleep well at night, so be it. I swear you did it to torment me. Fufufu.)

A good distance away from them was Nicole.

Lily had invited her to watch the battle, which she happily accepted. However, she wanted to watch it away from the others so that she could concentrate on the match more.

On the opposite side of the stands, Chloe and her Master, Professor Nicola, had also come to watch the battle.

But they weren’t the only people who were in the stands. Alice and Professor Ophelia were seated beside Professor Rinehart and Professor Barret, who had just activated the barrier over the arena to prevent anyone from getting killed in an all-out battle.

The adults found the bet between Ethan and Lyall quite amusing, while the young ladies watched this with various thoughts in their mind.

Nicole couldn’t help but shake her head helplessly. Ethan sure kept on attracting ladies left and right.

Although she knew that the young man wasn’t actively trying to seduce or attract anyone, his mere presence was simply too eye-catching for the ladies to not look in his direction.

Chloe, who was with Professor Nicola, came to cheer for both Ethan and Lyall. Her talk with Lily’s sister allowed the latter to better understand her true desires and think about how she should approach things using her own terms.

As for Alice, she only came to watch after Lyle (the Will of Eileifr Eques) told her that she should go to the Colosseum in order to learn something new.

Professor Ophelia, who happened to visit her at that time, decided to accompany her since she was also curious about what was about to transpire in the Coliseum.

There, they met Professor Rinehart and Professor Barret, who had come to mediate the battle.

Since they were already there, they decided to stay next to the two Professors and watch the battle from the VIP seats in the Coliseum.

“I’ll toss this coin,” Lyall said as she showed a gold coin in her hand. “Once it touches the ground, our fight will begin.”

Ethan nodded before summoning his Sea God’s Trident.

Seeing that he was ready to fight, Lyall flicked the coin in her hand.

But before the coin could even reach its highest point, she charged at Ethan, catching the other by surprise.

Lyall had transformed her feet into that of a Werewolf, giving her an incredible boost in speed.

Because of this, Ethan wasn’t able to raise his guard properly and got hit by a punch that sent him flying.

“First Lesson, Ethan,” Lyall said as she reappeared right above Ethan’s body, which was still in mid-air. “All is fair in love and war.”

The devilish beauty then gave a kick, which he barely managed to block with his Trident. But since they were mid-air, he was unable to get a foothold that would\'ve helped him properly block her attack.

His body then crashed into the ground like a cannonball. Lyall’s combination attack had truly caught him by surprise.

‘That got to hurt!’ Sebastian commented. ‘This girl really knows how to fight dirty. I like it!’

Ethan’s Other Half rolled his eyes at his partner-in-crime. Sebastian was clearly enjoying the battle between Ethan and Lyall, which was about to enter its next stage.
