As Rain finished reading and unplugged the ring, a voice reached him.

"I'm surprised you haven't reacted to this in any way."

As if to acknowledge his existence in the room, Eliana turned to him.

"Aren't you afraid at all?"

Looking for an answer to her question, she took another look at Rain's face, but saw no expected signs of panic or anxiety, as if it weren't about him at all.

Trying to understand the reason for his calmness, Eliana realized something.

"Or did you decide to just run away?"

Rain still didn't answer anything, continuing to look her straight in the eye.

Trying to get a reaction out of him, she propped her breasts up and said with a sneer.

"From the moment you challenged Gray, you were already doomed to defeat."

Then in a more serious tone Eliana added.

"Now, at least for the honor of our family, you can't refuse."

Seeing that Rain still showed no reaction, her voice became considerably colder.

"Don't even think of running away from the fight. If you do, I'll personally beat you up and drag you there. In that case, you'll be fighting with a swollen face, which will further reduce your already small chances–"

"Eliana, don't talk to your big brother like that!"

A shout interrupted Eliana's words, preventing her from finishing the threat.

Turning to Rain, Liana bowed, apologizing.

"I apologize for her, Rain, my sister overreacted. She didn't mean to hurt you."

Judging by her worried voice, she wasn't saying it to make fun of him, but out of genuine concern.

When Rain thought he had heard enough, he took slow steps toward Eliana, stopping when he was a meter away from her.

She was strong for her age, but her height was still inferior to his. Because of this difference, she had to lift her head slightly and it seemed that he was looking down at her.

She didn't particularly like the look Rain gave her and wanted to claim it, but his voice broke first.

"How about a bet?"

Eliana gave him a surprised look. Even her sister was intrigued by his unexpected offer, tilting her head slightly to the side and wondering what he would suggest.

"We'll bet who comes out the winner."

A couple seconds later, Eliana's ringing laughter echoed throughout the room. When she managed to manage it, she asked mockingly.

"You're already in a hole, but you decided to dig even deeper?"

A few veins on his forehead were ready to swell, but Rain was able to keep the same serene expression on his face.

'Get a grip, Rain, it's not time yet.'

Calming himself down, he looked at her again.

'Let's see how you laugh with my dick in your mouth.'

Eliana soon realized Rain wasn't going to answer her questions and went back to betting.

"I refuse. If it is not the place of the head of the family, you have nothing to give me."

When Rain heard her abrupt refusal, he closed his eyes. But not to accept the rejection, but to try something out.

'Previously, the system said that I could buy anything with steal points. In order to do that, there had to be a way to exchange the points for the item I wanted.'

Although the system didn't specify how to do this, Rain figured that since it could read his thoughts and desires, it should respond.

Rainmentally wished for something to buy. To his delight, after a second, a great deal of information entered his consciousness.

There were an incredible amount of things there: powerful cultivation techniques, miraculous elixirs, all sorts of treasures, and many more.

But for the moment, Rain ignored all that and focused on what he was looking for. Thanks to the handy search engine adjusting to his desires, it didn't take long.

A moment later, Rain opened his eyes and a new item appeared in his hands.

As soon as Eliana saw this, her eyes narrowed. She wasn't surprised to suddenly see an item appear out of nowhere, as storage magic wasn't uncommon for nobles. What caught her eye was the item Rain had taken out.

It was a small and simple looking vial filled with a glowing purple liquid.

Almost instinctively she lunged toward him, wanting to snatch it.

Before she could reach him, however, a sharp tug from behind stopped her. She turned around irritated, and saw Liana's disgruntled face.

"Don't even think about it, Eliana."

Liana said in a stern voice, addressing her by her first name.

Seeing her sister's adamant face, Eliana stopped trying, though her gaze was still fixed on the vial.

She couldn't help but know what it was. It was an elixir of evolution, one of the few things that could increase bloodline development quickly and without consequence. Even in their family it couldn't be carelessly handled.

'Where did Rain get that?'

A legitimate thought appeared in her mind, only to be discarded a second later.

'Who cares, more importantly, it will soon be mine.'

"What do you want in return?"

Rain pretended to think for a moment.

"One Wish."

When Rain put it forward as a bet, besides wanting to teach her a lesson, he was driven by another motive.

Eliana had great potential and ambition, but something stood out even more. Namely, her looks. Maybe it was their family's genes, but Eliana, like her sister, had stunning beauty.

The hero, eager to collect beauties, will not miss her for anything.

Since the previous Rain didn't interact with her much, Rain wasn't sure if there was a hero among her community. But he knew that if he wasn't there now, he would appear in the near future.

In fact, her personality had another big plus. She was best friends with Alice, the bitch who was considered Rain's fiancée. And to get to her, he could use Eliana.

Hearing his answer, Eliana looked slightly puzzled, since Rain hadn't asked for anything tangible.

'What's he up to? Could he be interested in me?'

Thinking for a second, she quickly dismissed those assumptions.

'That's unlikely, given his mad crush on Alice. He'd probably ask me to talk her into another date with him or something.'

Realizing it was a win-win, Eliana replied.

"Deal."

Then, as if afraid he would change his mind, she turned quickly to her sister.

"Be a witness, Liana."

Liana's gaze ran between the two of them, urging them to give up on this foolish venture. After a while, seeing no desire to back down on either of their faces, she showed a helpless expression.

"All right, I'll witness this deal."

After saying that, a victorious smile spread across Eliana's face and she walked towards the exit, pulling Liana behind her.

"Let's go get some lunch, sister!"

Rain looked at the girls walking away. This time his gaze was fixed on Liana.

In their short time of interaction, she, unlike her sister, seemed to Rain a very pleasant and kind girl.

Despite this, Rain only shook his head in pity.

'It's hard for people like that to survive in any world.'

However, that thought vanished without a trace as soon as Rain opened her status.

"What the fuck?!"
