154 There Seems To Be Something Wrong With This n


    The Red-Eyed ck Dragon suggested a n to deal with Su Wan. His n included using the Competition Gems as bait to lure her. Then, everyone would rush out and attack her.


    The n sounded simple enough. Now, they had to think about how exactly they were going to lure Su Wan into their rap.


    “We need to show her that it’s possible. Maybe we can send a Lord and they can pretend to join the enemy. The Lord can then gain her trust and even give her their gem as a sign of loyalty. Then, she could be lured here. The Lord can tell her about all the other gems that are hidden here.”


    The Red-Eyed ck Dragon finished speaking and looked at them. Everyone seemed stunned. Then they cheered.


    !!


    “As expected of a Dark-Type hero! Your heart is dark indeed!” eximed the Starlight Swordsman.


    The more he thought about it, the more he realized that Dark-Type heroes were dangerous. He had to be on his guard. Right now, the Red-Eyed ck Dragon was scheming against Su Wan on their side, but in the future, they might be his target! They needed to remain prepared.


    “But who will pretend to go to Su Wan’s side?”


    Everyone fell silent at the Light Mage’s question.


    To pretend to be on Su Wan’s side, one needed good acting skills. What if Su Wan got suspicious if the person acting to defect to her side wasn’t convincing enough? It would turn out troublesome if that happened.


    The second problem was the Competition Gem.


    ording to the Red-Eyed ck Dragon’s n, the person who ran to Su Wan’s side would have to surrender their own gem to earn Su Wan’s loyalty. Only then she would believe the person when they mentioned the other gems.


    Who would be willing to give up their gem for the n?


    No one was willing. It would be difficult for them to get back their gem, after all. It wouldn’t matter who won and who lost.


    If their n failed and Su Wan seeded, then the gem would be gone forever.


    However, if they seeded…


    The Lords would start fighting among themselves.


    At that time, the Lords would take Su Wan’s remaining gems. The one who would pretend to defect to Su Wan’s side would never get their gem back!


    Therefore, no one was willing to be the bait. The Lords and the heroes looked at each other.


    All of them knew the importance of the gems. Therefore, no one was willing to sacrifice it.


    They looked at the Lord of the Thorn Fairy. The n was suggested by the Red-Eyed ck Dragon and his Lord. So, they couldn’t force them to be the bait. So, there was only another weaker Lord in the scene.


    The Lord of the Thorn Fairy felt immense pressure from everyone. She looked at Lord Bevin. “Since this was your idea, why don’t you implement it? You will know the intricacies of the n more than anyone. It will be better for you to do it.”


    The Lord of the Thorn Fairy was a coward. She didn’t want to be the one to pretend to turn to the enemy.


    Lord Bevin immediately refused. “That won’t do! We came up with the idea! There are other details to the idea for which we need to be here. Also, our acting skills aren’t as good…”


    Lord Bevin wasn’t a fool. He saw the risk in the n. He wasn’t willing to join the enemy.


    No one was willing. None of them wanted to be eliminated from the game by giving up their gems.


    Fortunately, the Red-Eyed ck Dragon broke the silence. He hesitated. “It’s not difficult for us to act like we are defecting to Su Wan’s side…,” he said. “But if Su Wan is defeated, we want our gem to be returned to us.”


    If they defeated Su Wan, the Lords would fight among themselves to determine the winner. But the Red-Eyed ck Dragon suggested that they couldn’t immediately fight with each other. Instead, they will be given a safe period during which they would take their gems back. They will then be allowed to walk away within that safe period.


    After that, they could officially begin theirpetition! The Lords and heroes looked at each other and nodded. They agreed to the Red-Eyed ck Dragon’s request.


    Agreeing now was one thing, whether they would keep to their promiseter was an entirely different matter. The most important thing right now was the n. They wanted to let the Red-Eyed ck Dragon and Lord Bevin carry out the n.


    The Thorn Fairy and her Lord also agreed to the n. They were thinking the same thing as the other Lords.


    The first phase of the n wasn’t easy, and the Red-Eyed ck Dragon and Lord Bevin had agreed to do it. In any case, they would fulfill their promiseter.


    “Well said! After all, you are making a sacrifice for the n! We agree to your condition,” said the Lord of the Thorn Fairy.


    Lord Bevin’s head throbbed. He had no intention of pretending to get along with the enemy. But his hero had already suggested it. He had been tricked by his own hero!


    “But…,” he mumbled. He wanted to say something to his hero. He was unwilling to give up his gem to the enemy.


    The Red-Eyed ck Dragon didn’t give Bevin a chance to protest. “After we earn Su Wan’s trust, we need more gems as bait,” he said.


    He suggested hiding the gems at a specific location. This way, when he lured Su Wan over, she would not doubt his intention because she would sense the gems. At that point, even if she was suspicious, she would still fall into their trap because she coveted the gems.


    “When the timees, we will deceive her,” said the Red-Eyed ck Dragon. “I will just say that we hid thepetition gems because we couldn’t risk them being taken away by you all.”


    When the Red-Eyed ck Dragon said that, the others were a little doubtful.
