Jet struggled to get up after Violet’s powerful kick, though it was hard. Then, he turned to Hector and spoke in a furious voice.
"I want... to fight you!"
Hector watched Jet, who was moving toward Hector with difficulty, then lightly scratched the back of his head.
"I guess he won’t give up," he thought.
Violet spoke firmly, glaring at Jet aggressively.
"Don’t worry! I’ll smash him!"
Hector let out a quiet sigh.
"That’s unnecessary! He’ll just keep coming back ."
Then, he raised his voice.
"Give me a legitimate reason."
Jet slowly approached Hector and locked eyes with him, his gaze filled with madness.
"I’ll give you that gold if you accept my challenge."
"Huh? 4...000 gold coins?!" Hector stuttered in shock.
He had never seen a lot of money like that! He might live a life resting on that money, so he was stunned for a while.
While Hector was still dazed by the large sum of money Jet had ordered for him, Violet grimaced and lightly pulled Hector’s sleeve, speaking in a quick, worried tone.
’Don’t do it... It’s a trap... If you need money, I’ll give it to you... I have a lot of money!’’
As soon as Violet responded, Jet added, ’If you refuse, I’ll give this money to your instructor. I’m sure he’ll accept my request.’’
Hector slowly released a deep breath, then agreed with Jet’s order.
He also completely trusted that Michael would accept this easily. Luckily, Jet had come here and given him the offer beforehand.
At least, if he lost, he would lose in an amusing way.
"The deal is done!" Jet said in a cold, emotionless tone. Then, he took a large, woven pack from his storage system and quickly tossed it to Hector.
Hector felt the weight of coins in his hand, happily, then he put the pack on his storage system and intended to say something to Jet.
However, Violet’s angry voice echoed after that.
Violet instantly lunged at Jet and attacked wildly, uncontrollably. Both Hector and Jet were caught off guard by this sudden assault.
Although Jet managed to fight back to some extent, he could hardly do anything.
He was literally like a punching bag.
Hector had already tried to stop Violet from her reckless actions, but it was too impossible.
With the help of the nearby students, he finally succeeded.
Luckily, Jet wasn’t too seriously wounded... and in a way, this was beneficial for both him and Violet.
After all, Jet held a high status in his empire.
A conflict between a powerful clan and an empire would be too complicated for Hector to handle, especially since he was essentially the main culprit.
A few days later, shocking news occurred.
A fighting match between Jet and Hector was about to take place.
One of them was a prince of the Avalorian Empire, one of the Five Great Empires.
The other was just an ordinary man, yet he had won the love of Violet, a woman from the prestigious Big Clan.
And the reason behind this conflict was love.
No one believed that Jet could have a relationship with Violet, but it didn’t matter much. As long as it was entertaining, everyone enjoyed it.
Just like that, time passed, and the day of the fight finally arrived.
At this point, around the yard, there were many students and some instructors coming to see this match.
Normally, it was certain that no one would come, yet this match was different.
"I didn’t expect you to accept this match..." Michael smiled, looking at Hector with surprised eyes.
Faced with those provoking words, Hector could only sigh quietly.
"If I refuse, you’d certainly agree to it in my place... After all, you love money just as much as I do."
Then, he glanced at Jet, who was on the other side of the arena.
"He seems to have recovered from all his injuries."
"He’s definitely going to pour all his anger onto me." Hector slowly shook his head in exhaustion as he saw the fury in Jet’s eyes.
’This whole mess is your fault!’ He furrowed his brows and instinctively glanced at Violet.
However, he couldn’t see her anywhere, which left him confused.
A person like her wouldn’t possibly miss an event . Yet, his question was quickly answered by a voice from behind.
"Looking for her?... Don’t worry... She is being grounded for what she has done." Wren suddenly appeared behind Hector and said.
Violet had caused a lot of trouble in the Academy, but she possessed a high status, which didn’t matter even if she picked a fight with an empire; of course, if it wasn’t too serious, they could handle it easily.
"Ah, I’m surprised about that! I never imagined you could actually make her fall for you..." Michael laughed and patted Hector’s shoulder.
"Don’t believe the rumors! Nothing ever happened between us." Hector avoided Michael’s powerful pat and responded.
Then, he turned to Wren, who was still smiling mischievously at him.
"Uh... Can you teach Violet basic things about what a woman should do?" Hector scratched the back of his head and asked awkwardly.
Wren frowned and asked again, "What do you mean?"
"Ah! You know... Everything that happened."
Then, Hector explained everything to Wren.
"Hahaha!" Michael burst into laughter, clearly amused, while Wren furrowed his brows in discomfort.
"Why are you asking that? You can keep it for yourself, and you’ll have the greatest wife in the future!"
’’You’ll have a massive shield.’’
However, Wren’s response was barely negative, as Michael, she just sighed in boredom and then nodded.
Luckily for Wren, if anyone else they might have taken advantage of Violet’s innocence. She didn’t want Violet to end up with a lowly person like that.
Hector was a good boy, but he was too weak and insignificant... Chasing something beyond his reach would only lead to disaster.
If only Hector had a higher status, she wouldn’t oppose it.
But it was better for them to remain in a master-servant relationship.
It was the best outcome for both.
At the very least, she could accept this—Hector had saved Violet, so he was worthy of this much.
