"The cards have already been played. There's no need to keep pressuring me now, is there?"
"The reason I said what I was thinking was to show that I have enough confidence to win this round!"
Joy's overwhelming divine power was no longer capable of suppressing Xie Antong. Her smile remained unchanged.
On either side of the gambling table, the two parties that had been at each other's throats moments ago now sat relaxed, smiling at one another.
Yet the killing intent surrounding both sides seemed even more intense than before!
Joy narrowed Its eyes and stared at Xie Antong. It always felt that something was off, that the person before It had evolved.
That wasn't to say she shouldn't have been capable of this. She should have been able to figure these things out!
Nor was it that Joy didn't believe she could truly guess the rules of the game at this moment. Honestly, even if the other side really won this round, It wouldn't find it strange.
But what was strange was her temperament.
Joy found it odd. Why was she suddenly no longer afraid of It? When facing It, she had a strange... sense of ease.
Because It was Joy. The divine power within Xie Antong came from It, and she was also Its spokesperson.
Thus, It had always regarded her as an extension of Its own power, or even a rather amusing toy.
Whenever It drew close, It could feel the tension in her body, so taut that it was extremely unnatural.
Even when she truly erupted and fought against It, there was always the same hysterical feeling—succeed or die trying.
But this time, why was it like this...?
The Arbiter had already placed a hand on both of their cards, calmly proceeding with the game.
