"City Lord Rocky, I believe you can win the final victory,"
Athena did not deny Rocky's confidence; instead, she expressed agreement. But then she posed a question, "But even if you win, what will you gain?"
"..."
This question stumped Rocky. He opened his mouth to respond, but ultimately said nothing.
Only after he closed his mouth did Athena continue, "As far as I know, the wager between you and Bernardo seems to be only advantageous for him, right? So even if you win, you wouldn't gain anything."
"At least... if I win, I could make the common people lose confidence in the Mairente Family, couldn't I?"
After Athena finished speaking, Rocky thought for a moment and then said.
Although he had no advantage in the wager, since the Mairente Family had publicized this duel to all the subjects under their rule, if he could win, then even without tangible benefits, he felt certain he could further undermine the Mairente Family's prestige.
