Chapter 805 A Contest Of Courage


    Cameron was curious to know the gap between him and Emrys. Thus, he proposed a duel.


    However, Emrys shook his head and said, “Buddy, it’s not that I’m looking down on you, but with your


    slight build, I’m worried that one punch might send you sprawled to the ground, upon which you use


    me of foul y.”


    “W–What absurdity! Do I look like the kind of scoundrel who would use people falsely? No, wait. Do


    you really think you could knock me down with a single punch? That’s utterly ridiculous!”


    “You don’t believe me?”

    Emrys’s expression was amused. Suddenly, he started forward, walking toward Cameron. A cold glint


    abruptly shed across his eyes.


    Cameron’s face stiffened.


    All of a sudden, a wave of unease washed over him.


    Sylvia has exceptionally high standards, so the fact that this punk won her favor indicates that he’s


    undoubtedly extraordinary.


    Earlier, he merely acted out of jealousy that he challenged Emrys to a duel. But right then, as he


    watched thetter stride toward him, the icy intensity in the man’s eyes sent a shiver through his very


    soul.


    His sanity had returned to him then


    D*mn it! I was too rash!


    But with three beauties watching from the sidelines at that moment, and among them was his idol,


    Sylvia, Cameron found himself in a predicament, unable to back down.


    That wasn’t the worse.


    Following his roar just now, it unexpectedly drew the attention of many nearby. The onlookers watched


    curiously, making Cameron’s expression turn ufortably awkward.


    He could never bring himself to apologize and say he was too impulsive and wanted to


    take his words back.


    1/3


    That would be utterly embarrassing.


    Since he got himself into the situation, he had to bite the bullet no matter how tough it


    Was.


    Cameron could only feign calmness and adopt a battle stance. He tried his best to avoid looking at


    Emrys’s eyes, fearing he would be intimidated before the duel began.


    Thud! Thud! Thud!


    Emrys’s footsteps gradually drew closer.


    Cameron was so nervous that his palms were sweating,


    But at that very moment, Emrys suddenly halted in his tracks.


    Snorting, he said, “How dull. A duel is so boring. How about we have a contest of courage instead?”


    He had long since seen through Cameron’s fear, feeling that engaging with such a weakling was a


    waste of energy.


    At Emrys‘ words, a wave of relief washed over Cameron. He forced himself to take a deep breath


    before replying, “Okay. A duel is indeed boring. We’ll have a contest of courage. How do you propose


    to go about it?”


    Emrys paused for a moment. Then, he suddenly turned his gaze toward the thunderous terrain and


    said, “Ms. Morris, you mentioned earlier that the deeper one ventures into Thundercloud Marsh, the


    higher the lightning density, yes?”


    “Yes,”


    It seemed that Sylvia had already guessed what Emrys was nning to do. But still, she nodded.


    Emrys turned his gaze back to Cameron, smiling as he proposed, “How about this? For the contest of


    courage, we’ll venture into Thundercloud Marsh and see who can make it further in.”


    “Rys, have you lost your mind?” Nte shrieked before Cameron could respond.


    She continued, “Didn’t you hear what my sister just said? Several teachers at Cloudmist Academy had


    previously ventured into Thundercloud Marsh, only to meet their end


    there.”


    2/3


    She was acutely aware of how reckless Emrys could be. Given his stubborn nature, he was sure to


    charge headlong into danger.


    If he were to be struck by a few bolts of lightning, the consequences would be disastrous.


    Nte tried to dissuade him, saying, “Rys, didn’t I just reject him? There’s really no need for you to


    compete with him.”


    She was utterly perplexed.


    I’ve already made it clear I have no interest in getting to know this Cameron guy. Why is Rys still


    jealously vying for attention with him here? What absurdity!


    Unbeknownst to Nte, Emrys would have ventured into Thundercloud Marsh even without


    Cameron’s appearance.


    He questioned Sylvia about the situation in Thundercloud Marsh so urgently earlier because he sensed


    a familiar aura from within it.


    Like an invisible fishing line, that faint aura hooked him,pelling him to charge in.


    If I don’t go and uncover the secret within, I will surely regret it!


    That was the thought ying in Emrys‘ mind.
