Chapter 99.2: What Is a High Cost-Performance Rating Relationship? (2)

Edaline let out a few protests that were not intimidating in the slightest bit after her cheeks were played with by Rayne.

"But… so? Rayne, what\'s going on?"

Edaline asked seriously, "Wasn\'t she your prey? You tried to get close to her even though you didn\'t really like her. Even if she rejected you, in order to make use of her in the future, shouldn\'t you shamelessly continue to court her? Or are you telling me that you\'ve really fallen for her?"

"Of course I fell for her."

Rayne chuckled. "It\'s rare to see an interesting woman like Elktela in the mortal world."

"However…"

Rayne continued, "It\'s true that I might still succeed if I continue pandering to her in order to gain her affection, but that might not lead to the best outcome."

Edaline tilted her head. "Wouldn\'t it?"

Rayne explained, "If I do that, at the end of the day, we\'ll just become an ordinary couple that respects one another like guests. If our ideologies are incompatible in the future and there\'s even a conflict of interest, or if I neglect her in order to seduce another woman, all sorts of trouble will arise—the cost-performance ratio of a relationship as such is very low."

Edaline rolled her eyes. "Alright, I got it. You\'re a true-blue absolute scumbag."

Rayne smiled and did not refute.

However, at the end of the day, Edaline still could not understand.

What did Rayne do to that pointy ear?

Rayne replied, "It\'s nothing much. It\'s just that when she confessed to me, I rejected her and even belittled her."

Edaline went silent. "Doesn\'t that just mean it\'s game over for the two of you?"

Rayne replied, "No? Not at all."

Edaline said, "What else? Do you expect that pointy ear to come and beg you to be with her?"

She felt that it was impossible.

However, why did it seem like...

It was not impossible?

To be honest, ever since the first time the Great Teacher left her post without permission and was forced by Rayne to stay and guard the greenhouse with him...

Edaline could sense that something was amiss.

The relationship between the two of them… did not seem healthy.

In reality, it wasn\'t as though Edaline did not know anything about relationships between men and women.

On the contrary, although she had never been in a relationship, she had already seen countless melodramatic plots when she was on duty in the capital with her powerful perception.

Although the powerful perception of a demigod could give them a huge intelligence advantage, at times, useless and messy information would surge into the minds of the demigods like a flood.

Some of the demigods found it annoying and would block the feedbacks of unrelated mortals.

As for Edaline…

Out of concern for her useless brother, she would also pay attention to the aristocratic women that her brother patronized from time to time.

However, because of that, she had seen countless dirtier things compared to the other demigods...

It was not impossible for Edaline to understand the subtle relationship between Rayne and the Great Teacher.

Yet, how should she put it...

The whole thing still seemed ridiculous.

After all, look.

The Great Teacher who was humiliated by Rayne had not appeared for a week.

For all they knew, she might have already given up on her collaboration with Rayne at this moment and left the mess to Rayne and Edaline while returning to Leta to do her own things.

Edaline said, "Rayne, it\'s been a week. That woman\'s not going to return, right?"

As a woman, Edaline could understand the great teacher.

After all, she had already humbled herself and let go of the responsibility on her shoulders.

With psychological pressure that was almost equivalent to treason, she confessed to the prince of an enemy country in humiliation.

However, what she received in return was merciless shaming from Rayne.

That was the strongest demigod of the elves!

No matter what, she possessed the most basic self-respect, self-love and pride that she deserved!

To be honest, Edaline was extremely grateful that the pointy ear did not kill Rayne on the spot—that was way too magnanimous of her!

Edaline harrumphed. "In any case, Rayne, if you dare to reject my goodwill and even mock me, I won\'t show mercy even if you\'re my brother."

"Of course, how can I bear to treat my beloved sister like this? Little Eda, you\'re different from those women. I dote on you the most."

"H-Hmph...! You\'re only saying that"

Edaline turned her head and scoffed at Rayne\'s words.

However, her heart was pounding in bliss.

At that moment, Rayne suggested.

"Little Eda, do you want to make a bet?"

Edaline asked, "On what?"

Rayne said, "Let\'s bet on whether Elktela will take the initiative to return to my side and work for me wholeheartedly."

Edaline asked, "What\'s the bet?"

Rayne smiled. "If you lose, you\'ll have to listen to me obediently after we head to the crystal city. No matter what orders I give, you\'ll have to obey them."

Edaline frowned. "That sounds strange… and if I win?"

Rayne: "You tell me."

Edaline said, "If you lose, don\'t bring other women with you when you ask me to help you in the future. You even want to sell your body to hook up with other demigods despite having such a strong sister as a free fighter for you. How ridiculous is that?!"

Rayne: "So, you\'re agreeable to this bet?"

Edaline laughed and nodded. "Let\'s see what the outcome will be."
