Curious Hope

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Amos naturally knew that Emilia wouldn't make a bet with him if she hadn't been at least somewhat certain of her own victory, and had he not had any idea of what her bet might be, he obviously wouldn't pointlessly give her the opportunity to humiliate him any more than she already had.

But now that the stupid bitch had revealed her delusion of taking over Carmen, things were no longer the same.

Not to mention her, even if all of her allies and the White Deer Corporation were to go all in on taking down the country of Carmen, Amos was sure that all they would manage to achieve would be sealing their own doom.

Sure, they might not be annihilated immediately, but once they realized just how hopeless a victory was and retreated to nurse their wounds, would all the old enemies watching them like starving hawks let go of such a wonderful opportunity?

Of course not!
