Chapter 898 - Shameless
Theo was sitting in his garden when the Star Group's Skylink rang, notifying him about a sudden challenge.
The message said, "I am Mark Kalikdez, one of the three people evaluated as S Rank Talent. I want to challenge you in a duel."
"…" Theo was stupefied by the message. He truly never expected the opportunity to come to him right after he wished for it.
One of the ways to increase his reputation in Theo's head was defeating someone famous. He even needed to beat them thoroughly to show his might.
To think the opportunity walked right to his front gate by itself.
"Welp, I never got a challenge like this in Italy because my reputation and standing were quite high, so no one bothered to do it. Now that I have nothing with me, I guess I need to do it." Theo thought for a moment as a sly smile appeared on his face.
Theo didn't accept the challenge immediately. Instead, he wanted to take advantage of this situation to get something more.
"I don't see a reason for me to accept it."
Mark furrowed his eyebrows and thought his identity alone was enough. It seemed that Joker was a cool-headed person. "It's because personally challenging you is an honor that not many can receive."
"I don't need that kind of honor. If you're that cheap, then go screw around somewhere else."
Mark's eyebrows started twitching. "What do you want?"
Theo pondered for a moment, finding what he needed currently. After a moment, he replied, "Star Points. Since you are the one who wants to challenge me, you need to pay for my time. It is pretty expensive. Ten million for one challenge."
Mark dropped his jaw to the ground. The Star Points had a similar value to Zils, so the amount Theo asked was equal to one million dollars for a fight.
"Why don't you just rob banks?"
"Why don't you just retract your challenge? You're wasting my time."
"…" Mark gritted his teeth, never expecting to see someone this shameless. However, for his goal, he needed to accept this condition. "Fine. Ten million Star Points."
"Good. That's just the price to fight me. I don't accept a challenge for nothing. You need to add a bet."
Mark coughed a few times and looked at the Skylink in disbelief.
"Fuck you. Do you think you're great? I can crush you with one hand."
"So?"
"…"
"What a waste of talent. You have that talent, but you lack the boldness… I see. You are just a coward who can only stand on the rear while enjoying the benefit from your talent."
Mark almost threw the Skylink to the ground. He never thought Theo was this shameless.
"Since you're that poor, I guess I need to tone down my bet. If I lose, I'll give you one A Rank Skill Card."

"A Rank?" Mark was stunned this time. He precisely knew the importance of an A Rank Card. One card was equal to more than one billion Zils, so the bet was quite big. At the same time, not many people wanted to sell their A Rank Card, so the value increased a bit more.
Mark never expected Theo to have such a thing. However, his evil mind started working as a smirk appeared on his face.
"Since you want to rob me, don't blame me for robbing you back." Mark grinned and replied to Theo. "I have information about an artifact on the other side."
Theo was stunned this time. He looked at the Skylink with a serious face. "Interesting. An artifact… although unidentified, will still sell for at least a few billion Zils. And depending on its power, I can absorb the remnant energy to increase my status too."
"That's a good thing to bet," Theo replied.
"But you're so poor that I don't think you have something to match this kind of information." Mark chose to strike him with this kind of bet since it was clearly him having more value.
"Three A Rank Skill Cards." Theo stated while adding inwardly, 'I haven't upgraded my skill with these A Rank Cards yet because I don't want to rush it, considering each skill upgrade will require a few billion Zils. But I guess I can still use them to bet.'
On the other hand, Mark was stunned when Theo declared to have three A Rank Skill Cards. He thought Hendry actually gave it to Theo personally because he liked the kid.
After a moment, he said, "Fine, I will agree to this bet."
"Do you think that's all? You need to promise not to think about the artifact anymore after giving me the information. If you lie to me, I'll blame everything on you. If you plot against me or the artifact, I'll blame everything on you."
"Our pieces are equal. Don't push too much!"
"Yeah? You forget about the difference in our level. I'm level 521, while you are supposed to reach level 600 recently. You're just bullying me." Theo smirked, planning to take advantage of this person as much as possible.
Mark gritted his teeth and realized this man was a devil. He started to regret inviting him for a duel. But since everything had happened, if he backed down now, he would be seen as a coward.
"Fine. I promise."
"Good. Let's talk about the place and time."
"So, where are you? Are you in Star Field, Star Garden, or Star Home?"
"What's that?"
"You're not in the Supreme Rank Area? They're home complexes for the Star Group's members."
"Nope."
"Don't tell me you live in Starry Sky? The neighborhood for Mythical Rank or Extremely Talented Supreme Rank?"
Theo didn't reply as he never expected Mark knew where he lived. He was aware that he was inside a complex of wealthy people since he could see mansions around him.
He thought this was just a mansion that the Star Group accidentally bought. To think the entire complex was developed to host the Star Group's members.
Because there was no reply for a minute, Mark assumed he was correct and continued, "That's great since I'm there too. There is one field for a little spar in the middle of the complex. We can hold the challenge there. As for the timing, I can do it at 8 PM."
Theo hesitated for a moment before agreeing… "Fine."
