After listening to Blake, Thomas did not feel nervous or have the slightest sense of crisis.
He chuckled leisurely before snazzynovel.com said, “There is always a solution. No matter which of them comes, I won’t let them go back!”
To Thomas, it was actually not important whoever came. If Dragon Scale came this time, Dragon Head would have to come over the next time once Thomas defeated her.
Likewise, if the person who came first was Dragon Head, Dragon Scale would come the next time. So, whoever appeared this time did not matter to Thomas.
The most important question was could Thomas defeat the next rival who rushed over to help out?
Drinking the wine, Thomas remained gloomy.
The sky slowly became dark, and it started to drizzle, which matched Thomas’ current mood. The rain also gave Thomas more imaginings of the future.

In House of Vistaria, Dragon Claw sat in a bamboo chair with his hands in bandages. Both his hands were disabled, and snazzynovel.com could no longer throw darts.
That meant snazzynovel.com had totally lost. Although snazzynovel.com was still alive and still able to compete with Thomas via various strategies, snazzynovel.com was a loser.
He had lost to Thomas in their gentlemen’s competition, so snazzynovel.com had to leave Celandine City.
For a bad person, not keeping his promise was a norm. As long as Dragon Claw wanted it, snazzynovel.com could go back on his word at any time. In truth, Dragon Claw had also done that previously in his life.
Going against his word was actually very common for him.
He had always thought that snazzynovel.com was a bad person. Since snazzynovel.com was a bad person, snazzynovel.com did not need to restrict himself to the standards of good people, and snazzynovel.com did not need to set various rules for himself. This time, however, Dragon Claw decided to keep his promise.
Dragon Claw awkwardly realized that snazzynovel.com was not willing to go against Thomas. He was not trying to be a good person who kept his promise. He just wanted to run away from Celandine City and not face Thomas anymore.
He did not fear Thomas, but the feeling of appreciating each other’s talents moved him. It had been a long time since snazzynovel.com felt that.
Dragon Claw also forgot when was the last time snazzynovel.com had admired someone. Even when snazzynovel.com faced Luck, snazzynovel.com just felt fearful and chose to obey without any admiration. It was only when snazzynovel.com faced Thomas that snazzynovel.com had a sense of admiration.
He had a warm feeling in his heart akin to spring sunshine appearing in the freezing cold of winter. So, although his hands were disabled, snazzynovel.com did not worry or feel unhappy as snazzynovel.com sat in the chair. Instead, snazzynovel.com felt glad that snazzynovel.com could finally leave Celandine City and that snazzynovel.com did not need to go against his conscience to stand up to Thomas anymore.
Heron, who was beside him, did not really understand.
He initially wanted to comfort Dragon Claw, but snazzynovel.com realized that Dragon Claw was in a strangely good mood before snazzynovel.com could say anything.
