When Crown Prince Alerone looked at General Vilham, he noticed how the latter's face turned pale due to Prince Nicien's words!
Bet? Alerone was really curious now!
It's not every day that you get to see the proud General being humbled! Moreover, it's not every day that you get to see Prince Nicien behaving like this!
Vilham Jiveron knew very well that as a warrior, he had to honor his word no matter what. And with the Crown Prince's presence, he couldn't just back out after losing! That would be a great shame to him and his family, but...
What the bet required him to do will still be humiliating for someone in his position!
"We are waiting, General Vilham," Prince Nicien impatiently pointed out. "I am giving you a choice right now. Will you honor our bet or will you back out?"
