Another World Mall-Chapter 547: Challenge

"!!!" Clovis’ body trembled when he heard her name. It was because of the panel that appeared before him. Unlike all the previous panels, this one was the clearest one he had ever seen.

[Error.]

[Recalculating the probability of—]

It was only a few words but it contained a lot of meaning.

’What is this? Probability of what? Why do you need recalculation? Is it because the probability is so low that you have to recalculate it? Is the simulation different from what you expect?

’And what kind of data have you inputted into the simulation that it’s not possible for me to meet her? What is exactly going on?’

There were a lot of questions in his mind, but he knew it would be rude if he took this time to think about all kinds of possibilities.

"Is there something wrong?" Lues asked while furrowing his eyebrows, feeling suspicious. After the show earlier, it made people think Clovis was a lustful person. His daughter might end up getting caught by him.

At the same time, he still had to hold back because of the other party’s identity.

Even Christina was raising her guard against Clovis.

He didn’t particularly care about it, so he immediately shook his head, "Nothing. I feel like I have heard that name before."

It was a rather obvious statement. Christina was famous for being born as the granddaughter of Ezekiel Elseingarde. She was even confirmed to have the unique ability required to become a Tier 9 in the future.

That was why it wouldn’t be weird for them to hear about her name.

However, it was Hana and Kanaria’s turn to be shocked. Both of them knew Clovis didn’t have any knowledge about the outside world, especially other Tier 9, even though his grandfather was one of them. So it was weird for Clovis to claim he heard her name.

Was there something they didn’t know about the relationship between the two families? Or was there a reason Clovis used these words as a lie instead of using other common responses?

’I guess I will talk about it if I meet my grandfather or Mara.’ Clovis sighed inwardly before focusing on the people in front of him.

"I’m honored to meet both of you." Clovis’ expression turned solemn. "However, both of us know that this meeting holds a meaning."

Clovis was probably the only one who could say these words without the other party being offended.

"Indeed." Lues nodded. "We’re here just to introduce ourselves. I hope that Miss Hana is willing to spare a bit of her time later."

"I’m flattered. Of course, I will have time for you, Mr. Lues." Hana nodded.

There were still a lot of people around here, some were strong enough and even had Brain Affinity. So it would be bad if they overheard their conversation.

The hotel was specifically equipped by it, so no one could hear whatever they talked in those rooms.

That was what they planned to do. Obviously, they still saw the fact they were meeting each other, which meant they should keep an eye on them.

At the same time, Hana’s reputation had spread wide, especially because of the recent product. It wouldn’t be weird if the Elseingarde family was having an interest in it.

Through the Elseingarde family, she could gradually expand to the overseas market. Then again, it could only happen because the Elseingarde family was interested in Clovis.

Hana acknowledged that part, which became another reason for the previous show. Without that credibility, the Elseingarde might not approach her like this.

"In that case, we’ll take our leave." Lues and Christina walked away, greeting other guests.

As expected, several more people came to Hana and Clovis. Instead of getting angry because she was jealous, Kanaria simply looked around.

She had another mission in this banquet.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t get their peaceful meeting with all these people as a spirited voice echoed from the crowd.

"I challenge you, Clovis!"

The people couldn’t help but furrow their eyebrows, feeling annoyed. At the same time, there were a lot of people getting interested in this challenge.

After all, this was the first challenge in this banquet.

They shifted their gaze to this muscular man.

He looked 23 or 24 years old. His body was muscular to the point where his suits looked so tight.

He gave off a beast-like atmosphere from his body. It was as if telling them to fight, fight, and fight if they ever met him.

With such a confident smile, he came toward Clovis, challenging him.

"Rivain Magnus. His grandfather is a Tier 8. It seems he is the person that Mr. Alan talked about earlier. He is currently 24 years old and a Tier 5 human. It can be said that he is the previous rising star."

As Hana said those words, Rivain had reached them. "You look useful since you’re the current rising star. I’m Rivain Magnus. I’ve taken a liking on you. Come under me, Clovis. You will get anything you want. However, I’m not going to take in anyone useless. I’ll be testing you personally. If you can withstand my attack for five minutes, I will consider you passed."

Rivain made it in a way that he didn’t abuse his Tier 5 strength.

On the other hand, people knew this was just a one-sided threat.

Through Clovis, he planned to deal a blow to the Skylark family.

"Heh? Interesting." Lues smirked. "Do you think he will accept the challenge?"

Christina squinted her eyes. "I believe he will."

"Then, what will be the outcome of the fight?"

"I have seen people like him in battle. He is not just planning to endure the attack for five minutes. He’s planning to showcase his power. However, this is a foolish move. His opponent is a Tier 5 human. While he is not as strong as me, it’s still a Tier 5 human. He is also considered a genius in this country, so his strength should be beyond it. Even if he can fight a Tier 4 human while he’s only a Tier 2, the gap between each Tier increases the higher the Tiers are…" Christina explained.

As she expected, Clovis planned to beat this guy from the start to solve all the problems both for him and Hana.

Clovis stated coldly, "I’m not going to listen to someone who is defeated by me."

"You bastard." Rivain grinned, planning to beat the crap out of Clovis.
