"Help?" Elena's index fingers touched, and she whispered, "What kind of help, exactly..."

When it comes to the tricks men use to pick up girls, if the tricks are shallow, girls usually see through them, especially girls like Elena.

Asking a girl for help, isn't that just creating an opportunity to spend time together?

"I need some materials for making cards, and also some card maker assistants," Caroso ignored the bullet screen.

The bullet screen only said this girl couldn't be dated, it didn't say they couldn't help each other, right?

His father had told him that as long as the benefits were sufficient, he should sit down and talk peacefully with his opponent, even if they were enemies.

Caroso felt that he had just helped her with her studies, and now he was asking for something in return, which was perfectly fair.

Caroso had just arrived in the Royal Capital and didn't understand the market prices for many materials. If the materials netizens needed were obscure, the school's material shop probably wouldn't have them.

At this time, Caroso needed some local guides.

Also, card maker assistants were people who couldn't become card makers themselves and instead served card makers.

Caroso had just arrived and didn't know where to hire reliable card maker assistants.

He believed that Elena, for the sake of friendship, wouldn't ask for too high a price.

"Hmm, Brother Caroso needs to make cards..." Elena bit her lip. "I'll help..."

"Kolea, it's time to eat. Aren't you being rude by coming here to say these things instead of eating?" A man beside Elena interrupted their conversation.

"Kare, Brother Caroso is a guest." Elena's voice sounded like she was either trying to persuade Kare or acting coy.

"Who are you?" Caroso's gaze fell on the man.

The name Kare made Caroso vigilant.

The bullet screen had mentioned before that his eyes were dug out by Kare, but he didn't know who Kare was.

Was it a coincidence that a Kare appeared beside Elena?

"Kare Quint, third year at the Warrior Academy, Fourth-tier warrior," Kare ignored Elena and stared fixedly at Caroso. "My father is Grand Duke Quint of Gao Yan Province."

"Kare, Quint?" Caroso narrowed his eyes.

[Boss Caro, it's him!]

[Holy crap, it matches! This is the guy who dug out Boss Caro's eyes in the dungeon!]

[Wait, why did Boss Caro encounter a Fourth-tier opponent when he was only Third-tier? Weren't they in different dungeons?]

[I don't know, this part of the plot is too vague, full of riddles.]

[I found the CG. Boss Caro is lying on the ground, and this guy stabs Boss Caro's eyes with a rapier. Boss Caro is holding the blade, and this Kare looks gleeful.]

[Damn, this person isn't even in our storyline. I really want to beat him a thousand times.]

"If you think I'm being rude..." Caroso casually took a pair of white gloves from his pocket and threw them at Kare's chest.

Osiris Kolea had once said: When you confirm the other party is an enemy, defeat them as much as possible, or at least gather enough intelligence to prepare for war.

Caroso could sit down and talk with enemies, or he could go all out to defeat them when he deemed them enemies.

How to choose, that was for Caroso to control.

From the bullet screen's perspective, Elena played dirty, while this person had a direct conflict with him.

Therefore, it wouldn't hurt to check his strength in advance.

"Brother Caroso!"

Elena covered her mouth, her pretty face turning pale, feeling like she had caused trouble.

She didn't know why, but even though she had caused trouble, she felt a little bit of joy.

Is my charm that great? Caroso is directly going to duel someone for me...

"Caroso, calm down!" Rayne hadn't expected Caroso to be so feisty. The other guy just said he was rude, and he immediately threw his gloves.

It wouldn't be good if either of them got hurt if they fought!

If it happened in a dungeon, or if they settled it secretly, it wouldn't concern Rayne. But for the sons of two Grand Dukes to get into a duel in his presence...

Kare also looked at Caroso in disbelief. "I'm in third year!"

"I know, you're in third year," Caroso nodded. "Did I say that first-years can't challenge third-years?"

[Boss Caro, the prince is right, calm down!]

[Fourth-tier warriors are trash in our eyes, but you're only Third-tier now!]

[Everyone below Fourth-tier is low-level, Fourth-tier to Sixth-tier is high-level, you're not in the same league!]

[This game is reasonable, it's hard to challenge higher tiers!]

[Why is Baby Caro so impulsive? This isn't Baby Caro's personality.]

[Boss Caro, keep a low profile, you're not at the stage where you can crush gods and kill buddhas yet.]

[Do you think Boss Caro is that kind of low-profile person...]

[Uh, weren't you the ones who said Boss Caro could handle Fourth-tiers? Damn, Boss Caro actually took it seriously?]

[Holy crap, it's my fault in the end?]

[No, it would be fine if there were heavy trap card decks, but Boss Caro only has three heavy trap cards.]

[Looking at his expression, why do I feel like Boss Caro is the one bullying...]

[Damn, now that you mention it, it's true. Boss Caro looks more confident.]

[He wants to suppress the other party at the slightest disagreement. This... classic villain behavior!]

[I have to say, Baby Caro in the hand-knitted gloves is so cute...]

"Alright, I accept your challenge." Kare chuckled: "Time and place."

"Now, to the arena." Caroso said indifferently: "The rules will be according to the school's."

"So that's what you were waiting for?" Kare's lips curved upwards: "When challenging across different tiers, special rules must be used. You are Tier 3, so the cards I use cannot exceed Tier 3. In terms of points, since I am one tier higher than you, we can each only use ten points, which is equivalent to three three-star cards and one one-star card, or two three-star cards and two two-star cards, mixed as you please."

[???]

[There are rules like this?]

[Damn, isn't this a guaranteed win? What was I even worried about before, to question Boss Caro's battle intelligence?]

[Uh... Boss Caro has this cunning side too?]

[Should I thank you for your debut match?]

"Sirs, this..." Rayne opened his mouth and glared fiercely at Elena.

Elena, like a startled little rabbit, quickly hid behind Caroso.

Seeing this, Kare felt his blood pressure rising.

During his two years of studying in the Royal Capital, his relationship with Elena had always been good.

In Elena, he even saw love.

Kare had planned to propose to Elena after graduation.

He was the Grand Duke's son, and Elena was the Kingdom's princess; they were a perfect match.

Whether for political reasons or personal ones, he and Elena were destined for each other.

This Caroso, he wants to snatch her away as soon as he arrives?

What's most baffling is why Elena is hiding behind him? You're hiding in the wrong place!

"Can't we discuss things properly? Why do we have to resolve this with a duel..." Rayne said helplessly: "You are both my friends. If you are unhappy because of me, then just hit me..."

"It has nothing to do with Your Highness." Caroso stared at Kare: "Shall we go?"

"Let's go!"
