Location- Sky Blossom City, Privilege Restaurant, VIP box no.01

"I am waiting!" I yelled while Rami closed his eyes and his bodyguard, hiding in the shadows, made the call.

A few minutes later, Rami's bodyguard walked out of the shadow and whispered the information he received, trying to have my Card boutique closed. Hearing the news, Remi's face paled, and his lustrous silver hair lost its glow as if it would wither any moment now.

"Your status as fraud is not for show. You managed to defraud me." Rami finally said a few words, and his tone made it sound like he was being wronged.

"Defraud? Correction, I outwitted you. Old fossil, don't make it sound like I am the villain. That's what you get for looking down on people, especially young people. Got it?" Last time I did not use this trick because I did not know where Rami's limit was, plus, I did not know how he would react. Therefore, I played it safe. But now I know that he did not have the balls to cross Anna. So, with all my worries taken care of, I went for a home run. And boy, it was so worth it and satisfying.

"Boy, don't get cocky. if not for the southern emperor behind you, this would be a different story." Rami gritted his teeth as he fiercely glared at me.

"Ha!" I snickered at Rami. Knowing he was only a tyrant to those weaker than him and a mule to those stronger than him. Having taunted him enough, I said, "Rami, be a good boy, and I will not use my winnings to make you do something you'd regret.

Give your personal grimoire QR to Diana. And pick up when she calls. So that I can cash on the promise I just won when I need to."

"Fine!" Rami summoned his gold grimoire and let Diana scan its QR code.

"I assume you are still stuck in the Card Overlord realm because of your grimoire grade," I commented, seeing Rami's golden grimoire.

"Well, aren't you a genius?" Responded Rami Sarcastically.

"See, Rami, I was planning on helping you get a platinum grimoire. But now I am not so sure." I did plan to get Rami a platinum grimoire, of course, for a price. Seeing him be a naughty boy, I decided to discuss it later after him being disciplined.

"Boy, don't kid yourself. Do you even know how hard it is to get a platinum grimoire? Even with my connections, I could not get my hands on one. And you want me to believe you can get me a platinum grimoire. Like I would fall for your fraud again." Rami did not believe that I had the ability to get him a platinum grimoire and scoffed at the very notion of that.

"What if my connection happened to be the freaking Southern Emperor, you old relic." It seems it will take me a while to help Rami understand that I hold his reins now.

The soul contracted stated that if I won the wager, Rami Kaga would promise me one thing. There were no clauses in the contract stating what I could and could not ask Rami to promise me. Enraged and muddled by his hurt pride, old Rami forgot to add these clauses. I bet he thought he would win, so he did not bother with such clauses. Well, whichever it is, right now, I could ask Rami to go naked around the world in 72 days or ask him to kill those who are beloved to him or cut off his manhood. There were numerous things I could ask him to promise me to make his life miserable. The faster he gets it, the better for him and me, as I didn't want to waste the leverage to make a point.

"..." Hearing my words, Rami pondered but then shook his head and said, " what will it cost me?"

As Rami thought about it, he felt that considering that the Southern emperor is willing to take this kid under her protection, he may be able to get her to give him a few platinum grimoires. Therefore he suppressed his pride and arrogance, kicked them out of his thoughts, and decided to wag his tail.

"Let's start with obedience. Complete and absolute obedience. Then, depending on your behavior, I will reconsider whether or not to help you upgrade your grimoire." I made this demand because I knew I had him.

"Okay, but I need confirmation that you can get a platinum grimoire from the Southern Emperor. I don't plan on falling for one of your frauds again. Fool Me Once, Shame on You. Fool Me Twice, Shame on Me." Rami was willing to let go of his pride and arrogance but the shame of being defrauded he couldn't let that go or let that repeat again, so he asked for assurance.

"How about I get a platinum grimoire? Is that confirmation enough for you?" I did not want to ask anything from Anna, but I could ask Luna for a platinum grimoire in exchange for a few broken runes she promised me as payment for the magemorpher cards she asked me to make.

"Yes, that would be enough." Rami nodded and decided to believe me for now from the confidence he felt in my words.

"Grandpa, I am here." A Silver-haired teenager barged into the VIP box. Who dares to barge into the head of the Blossom District medical card association's VIP box, none other than his grandson.

"Boy, how many times have I warned you to knock before you enter a room? I am in a meeting now. Come back after 15 mins." Rami had learned his lesson and could not afford to be haughty anymore, so this time he did not dare to ignore our existence and get into an argument with his grandson like he did previously.

"Okay, grandpa….." Just as the silver-haired boy was about to excuse himself, he stopped and stood in a daze as if ge had seen his first love.
