The Medallion

"Ha-ha! It seems that you are really determined to make me fall in love with you no matter what," Rocky said in a teasing tone as he chuckled.

"Yes! I am serious about that. Now, tell me your answer," Gloria demanded to know his answer as she wore a serious expression on her face.

"Well, maybe. We'll see..." Rocky answered ambiguously before he turned around again and left.

After Rocky got out of the hall, Adrian and Gloria were left alone, and they began to ponder and discuss the issue at hand.

"So, what do you think of his plan?" Adrian asked as he stroked his chin.

"It is like a double-edged sword. Once it succeeds, it will really solve our problem and erase the biggest threat of all—the Primitive Fief. However, if it fails and the Primitive Fief discovers about this plan, we will fall into an even greater passive position. But of course, it is really tempting," Gloria replied as she analyzed every angle of Rocky's proposal.

"Yes, that is true. The plan is too risky, but at the same time, it's very intriguing! It feels like I will always wonder what could have happened if we did not agree to it." Although Adrian had always been cautious, he felt a strong urge to lean into it.

"Father, it's up to you to make the decision. Whatever you decide on, I will respect it." Gloria was well-aware that this matter should be dealt with seriously and with the utmost caution since it would affect the future of the entire Genie Fief. There was no room to be rash at this point.

"All right. Let me think it over. For now, you go and take a rest." Adrian then waved his hand and gestured to his daughter that she could leave.

Meanwhile, Rocky had already returned to the Ghost Palace. However, before he could even take a seat, Valeria came rushing in.

"I heard that the leader of the Genie Fief brought his daughter here to make you marry her. Is that true?"

"Well, yes. The news really travels that fast, huh?" Rocky said with a faint smile.

"What?! Shame on them!" Upon hearing it from Rocky's own mouth, Valeria instantly grew furious.

"Can you blame them? In order to win in the end, they need to do whatever they can. Moreover, since Miss Gloria's name is in the engagement covenant, they are actually eligible to demand a marriage," Rocky said indifferently.

"Humph! I think you just really want to marry her!" Valeria was instantly pissed off that Rocky did not seem to side with her. It was as if she was very jealous that her fiance entertained the thought of being married to another woman.
