A Bet with the Heir of the Earth

When I ended up in a situation with no way out, a completely random guy saved me—and even handed me a large sum of money. After that encounter, I decided to change my life drastically. I moved to the capital, enrolled in school. But when I ran into that same stranger again, I wasn’t ready to repay him. He wasn’t upset and suggested something strange—a bet. If I win, I’ll get what I never even dared to dream of. If I lose, he’ll reveal my secret to the authorities. Too bad—back then I didn’t understand how dangerous it is to be around this man. And I couldn’t imagine that our wager could cost me my freedom, and even my life.
