The Unfettered Ice Princess [ EN ]

Chapter 58 [ End of Beginning ]

Once the glass was fully raised. What they saw was something that really surprised them.

"Aree.... How come it's like this? Wow, what if it's like this~" Bere grinned as if she wasn't involved at all with how things turned out.

"If it's like this, shall we call it a draw?"

Zeta, "Wha--"

"Which option? Either we lose and pretend the bet never happened. Or... We both win? We get 2 billion and you get our help," Bere smiled.

".........."
Zeta was literally pushed to the brink. She had to choose between letting go of Bere and Ruka, which made the advantage she held useless. Or going with Bere's flow.

Honestly, Zeta was speechless by that girl. She didn't think the princess could think of that. It might be rude, but Zeta thought Bere was the child type who was stupid and reckless.

"So what? Hurry up, we don't have much time," Bere said.

"...... Pfft... Haha! Ahahahahahahaha!!!"
Unlike what Bere thought too, Zeta laughed.

"???"
Bere had thought Zeta would get angry or try to threaten her. The woman's response was completely beyond her prediction.

"This woman is going crazy, huh?" Bere whispered to Ruka.

Rika shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't know."

"Hahahahaha!!! Hah... The newbies have been really interesting lately... How many times have I laughed this week?" Zeta asked herself.

Bere and Ruka took a few steps back. Somehow they had a bad feeling that Zeta was suddenly laughing to herself like that.

Realizing that, Zeta stopped her laughter. She smiled softly, a smile that showed satisfaction.
"Good, that's the way it should be."

Bere, "?"

Zeta picked up the dice that were still sitting on the table.
"I'm already worried that none newbies are good to work with. They're all too innocent and stupid. If they're used in my main plan, they'll just be a burden."

She threw the dice up, then caught it again. This happened several times.
"It's a relief that there's something useful. If it's for that, there should be a small fee. It's not a big deal."

"Berenice and Ruka, right? Alright, I'll pick a win-win," Zeta replied without hesitation as if she didn't consider 2 billion at all.

"!"
Bere had guessed the answer would be this. But she guessed this answer would only come after some troublesome situations. She didn't expect it to be that easy.

Or that's what she expected.
"But I have a condition," Zeta continued.

"Condition...?" asked Bere, perhaps this was where her bad feeling was coming from.
