Chapter 997: 360

"Eh, Philomena..."

Dreyne scanned the big guy and the beauty, and suddenly realized, "It’s just like you, my most faithful Moonlight Disciple, and my proudest successor. As soon as you reached the Inverted World, you had the High Priest of the Moonlight Church by your side."

"Fine, as long as you’re happy."

William and Philomena stood aside, curious about Dreyne’s identity, with William vaguely feeling that the ice beauty was far stronger than himself.

Listening to what the other party said, it seemed that she, like Wayne, came from the Outer World.

However, what William cared about most was the relationship between Wayne and the ice beauty—their intimacy and the ease with which they got touchy-feely probably meant they were lovers.

"Our family is really big..."

William muttered snarkily, annoyed, "Wayne, is this beauty also your girlfriend?"

"Who are you looking down on, how could she be my girlfriend!"

"Who are you looking down on, how am I not good enough for you!"

Dreyne muttered inwardly, annoyed. If Wayne didn’t rate her, well, she didn’t rate Wayne either. She shyly wrapped her arm around Wayne’s, "You’ve already won all my White Night Purity Words, and now you’re speaking such irresponsible words, don’t you have any conscience?"

"Stop it, when have I ever had a conscience?"

Wayne shook off Dreyne’s hand, pointing at the crumbled facade of the ice beauty, "This is the Moonlight Knight Dreyne from the Outer World. I’m just the successor to the Moonlight Knight in the Outer World. I have to wait for her to leave before I can become a true God-chosen Knight."

"Well said, your reward is to play cards with me."

Dreyne nodded again and again, deserving of her high hopes, self-styled successor of the Moonlight Knight, she had completely forgotten nature and the sun.

"That’s a punishment, punishing both me and yourself..."

Wayne muttered, continuing, "Dreyne, this is Philomena from the Inverted World. You’ve met back in the Outer World. This is William, you probably haven’t met him. He’s Chris’s junior, a very cute girl, and also one of my girlfriends."

"Ah?!"

Dreyne’s mouth dropped open, looking back and forth between the big guy and Wayne. Seeing the latter nod, she shivered, stepped back two steps in horror and said, "I knew you were a Lundan noble, but I didn’t think you would really fall into such corrupt practices. Let’s break up, we’re no longer lovers."

As if they had been lovers before!

Wayne high-fived William, another successful battle, and he disgusted another newcomer.

Wayne didn’t explain William = Viley, the closeness between them showed they were as close as brothers, clearly indicating he had taken a path of no return.

Dreyne with a look of disgust: "You nobles... whatever, we’ve already broken up. You can go wherever you like as long as you play cards with me."

"Rather than playing cards, do you know how to leave the Inverted World? What are you doing alone in the wilderness, some task from the Goddess?" Wayne wasn’t in the mood to play cards.

"Want to know? I’ve put everything on the card table, if you want it, come find it!" Dreyne’s lips curled up, hands on her hips, laughing like a villain.

Such a great gambling addict, too bad she has an ice-cold face.

...

Crossing the peaks of the Black Mountain Range, the area that originally sealed Torgoguryr’s head was now replaced by the unfathomably deep Dark Abyss, with Dreyne setting up a card table at the edge of the cliff.

Just in time, with three players missing, Wayne and the others arrived just in time.

"Damn it, you must have cheated!"

Dreyne placed her hands on the card table, unable to bear the nine consecutive losses, about to flip the table.

"Calm down, it’s too remote here; without a table, it’s hard to play cards," Wayne’s voice came from behind the chips.

"Outrageous!"

The more Dreyne looked, the angrier she became; raising her hand, she flipped the card table into the air, letting chips and the table dance wildly in the sky, performing a free fall into the Abyss.

From today onwards, quitting gambling was impossible. It was just a table and chips; she could use her thoughts to shape them, wholesaling thousands of sets a day, her productivity far exceeding that of an assembly line.

"Dreyne, I’ve won everything on the table; it’s your turn, answer my question."

"I won’t, you cheated!"

"Big sister, after we go back, I’ll keep playing cards with you, I promise to let you win once."

"Who are you looking down on, I can win without your letting me!"

Dreyne, grinding her teeth with hatred, no gambling addict loses every day, every encounter with Wayne ended in utter defeat, proving she wasn’t a real gambling addict.

Got it, she hasn’t practiced her card techniques enough.

As long as she kept practicing, she could definitely turn the tables.

Although Dreyne had a terrible gaming spirit, unable to handle losing and would flip tables when winning to mock her fellow players, she had basic integrity.

For example, she never cheated at the card table, and she also admitted defeat gracefully; Wayne had won all her chips, and she would answer all of Wayne’s questions.

"Dreyne, how can we leave the Inverted World?" Wayne cut to the chase.

"I’ll take you out; you don’t need to worry about that," Dreyne said breezily, touching on the Demigod Domain, which Wayne wouldn’t understand anyway.

"Can they leave too?"

Wayne asked earnestly, with William and Philomena on either side of the card table also holding their breath.
