Ryan frowned and thought on Chase's offer. Losing his abilities for a week would be detrimental to his job as Disciplinary Committee Leader, but a personal treasure from Chase's treasury...

"I'm in. I'm highly likely to lose, but on the off chance I win... I would advance my potential immensely." Ryan looked at Chase with a hardened and determined stare. "You would do well to not underestimate us. I will now revise my earlier statement. I am not likely to lose whatsoever. Not only will I win, but I will do it in record time." 

Ryan smiled and decided to up the stakes. "I would actually like to place an additional wager. I will be the one to land the scratch on you. If I do, I want two treasures. If I do not and someone else does, you will seal my abilities for a week. If we all fail, you will seal my abilities for two weeks. Does that sound nice?" Ryan asked. He already wanted to take his words back, but it was too late. His pride was on the line now.
