"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.

Kesha didn't like the turn of events. But she had to admit that he was right. If she turned tail in this bet, it also meant that she was only spouting nonsense a while ago. Like hell, she let that happen!

He glared at Yman and saw him raise his brow like a typical villain. She hates him! She hates him very much!

Hah! She sighed. "Okay, let's have a bet!" Kesha succumbed. Although she said it, deep inside, she felt like she fell into a deep pit, like falling into his trap. Especially, when she saw a victorious grin on that person's face! She wanted to punch him! Kesha shouted in her mind.

"Let's see if you can still grin after this!" She bellowed at him.

Yman chuckled slightly.

"Since you don't have money, If your friend loses the match, I want you to stay away from my best friend," Kesha suddenly announced. 

"Eh!" Almina wailed.

"Oi," Yman wanted to oppose Kesha's first line, but he remembered she was right. He just bought a house and lot so his Cyber Wallet was empty at the moment. 

"Then, I want to bet too!" Suddenly, Almina raised her hand and announced also.

"Ah best friend, what are you going to bet? And which will you choose?" Kesha asked.

"If Bob loses the fight, I-I want Yman to co-come with me…"

"....."

"....."

"....."

Yman and the others fell silent and thought, 'Is Miss Almina a dork?'

"Uh, best friend, isn't that a complete opposite of my bet?" The others nod their heads in agreement with Kesha's words. "Also, you choose the same side as me, so it is an invalid bet. Choose another bet."

"Ehhh!" Almina with teary eyes cried out.

Maena, on the other hand, was shaking her head while touching it, seemingly having a headache from Almina.

Yman's mouth opened to form a voiceless laugh. He didn't know what to say about it.

"She's right, Almina," Yman said calmly. "Since your friend already stated first, it's not right to contradict her bet when you are on the same side."

Amina sighed. "T-Then, if Bob loses the fight, I- I want you to grant my single wish…" Amina said shyly with her face turned red.

The others thought it was suspicious.

"I see. As long as it won't contradict your friend's bet and as long as it is beyond my capability, I will do as you wish," Yman replied and smiled after.

Almina turned red further.

Kesha sighed and shook her head. Her best friend was beyond help!

"Okay, so, what is your bet?" Kesha asked him while raising her brow.

Yman grinned.
