The Great Medical Saint novel Chapter 500

Matthew never thought that Caleb would kneel and beg him as well. "Don't you have the Executioners of The Gatekeepers to protect you? Why are you getting on your knees to plead with me?"

Upon hearing that, Caleb quickly explained, "I only have one Executioner who serves me, and he's a loyal friend. Unfortunately, he passed away in a car crash.

"Those Executioners from earlier all serve Jane, so I'm the lone ranger now.

"I know I might not have the right to make a request, but I'd like to offer my life to you. The gambling skills I've acquired might be of use someday."

Matthew let out a disdainful smile when he heard that and said, "Do you think your gambling skills are that brilliant?"

When it came to gambling skills, Caleb was very confident, so he said, "I joined The Gatekeepers when I was young and have been gambling my whole life.

"I've gambled in all of the casinos known to mankind, whether big or small, and the only person I've lost to is Old Fox.

"I believe that I'm the best grifter after Old Fox, so I'd definitely come in handy to you someday."

To elevate his status, Caleb used gamblers all over the world as a foil. He wanted Matthew to know that he had a value of some kind as well.

At that moment, Matthew reminded him coldly, "Don't forget that you've lost to me today as well!"

"Oh, right. I lost to you as well!" Caleb said in an instant after he was reminded of the gamble earlier.

Just a few seconds ago, he had been bragging about being a Chicanery expert who came in second after Darrell.

But Matthew possessed greater skills than him, so the so-called gambling skills that Caleb had been so proud of were worthless in Matthew's eyes.

With that, Caleb felt as if there was nothing else that he could move Matthew with. But thinking of his wife and kids, Caleb could only put his pride down and plead continuously.

"I… I don't know if I'm of any use to you, but… I'll offer my life to you. If you want me to live, I'll continue living, and if you want me to die, then I'll give my life up to you.
