Chapter 1666
Back then, Yosil had asked Frank if he needed more medicinal herbs. If Frank had compromised a little, the current situation would not have turned out like this.
"Oh, what a pity." Ira sighed too, his eyes holding a hint of dissatisfaction toward Kairo.
Despite constantly insisting that Frank should drink the poison and compete fairly with them, Kairo instead hindered Frank in this test, ultimately causing Frank's loss.
Though Kairo was from Cloudnine Sect, it seemed that his methods were not entirely honest. His earlier talk of fairness probably stemmed from not wanting to lose his dignity.
If he was placed in Frank's shoes just now, forget drinking the medicine sediments-Kairo would probably not even touch a drop of poison.
So when they heard Kairo's triumphant laughter now, Ira and the others also felt somewhat irked.
The people participating in this trial stopped mocking Frank. Instead, they cast complex glances at Kairo, who indeed had a bit of a petty mentality.
Yosil naturally saw all this and could only shake his head helplessly. Although Kairo had meddled in the outcome, the most crucial factor was still Frank himself, who had refused Yosil's help and had been too arrogant and conceited.
Yosil thought that Frank had a hot temper and needed more experience. Enduring this setback and spending a few years recuperating might not be bad for his character.
Just as Yosil was thinking this, Frank smiled faintly.
"Oh? Fail? Do you mean that my pill can't cure the toxicity in my body?"
"What?" Yosil was slightly taken aback when Frank confidently spoke those words. His brows furrowed slightly.
"Why is this young man so stubborn? He still won't admit defeat?"
"Cut the crap. I know you don't want to admit it, but facts are facts. You have to accept it!" Kairo said firmly, extending his foot.
"Here, I think you know what you should do now, right? Since you've lost, just admit it gracefully. It's time to kneel and lick my shoe.
"If you won't do it, don't forget that I'm a member of Cloudnine Sect. I have a hundred ways to make you kneel and lick my shoe before you die." Seeing Kairo behaving so brazenly, Yosil immediately rebuked him coldly, "Kairo, this is not the South Sea. Don't try to flaunt Cloudnine Sect's prestige here and disrespect Kornac's Keep!"
"Hmph."
Kairo had brought Yosil's rebuke upon himself with his unpleasant behavior.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
But Kairo sneered coldly. "Chief,
you're being too harsh. I meant no offense, I just wanted to remind this kid to honor the bet and not play tricks. After all, he's being stubborn about it."
"The bet..." Yosil stiffened.
He had clearly heard Kairo and Frank's bet while sitting in his armchair earlier. Initially, he did not take it seriously, especially since Kairo had not specified the
e
consequences of Frank lo come
But now, Kairo was serious about it and demanded that Frank publicly kneel down and lick his shoe.
If Frank really did kneel and lick Kairo's shoe in front of everyone, would Kornac's Keep still be able to accept Frank as an apprentice? Yosil looked conflicted. Just from Frank's outstanding performance in the first trial alone, he had already decided to recruit this promising talent.
In his view, while Kairo and Horey
were excellent, they were from Cloudnine Sect and required cautious handling. Moreover, their characters were flawed. They talked about fairness but did things that undermined it.
And in terms of strength, Kairo was not as good as Frank.
So, the choice Yosil faced was quite simple.
