The annual bet was something that Alex and Carlo started back when Alex became a merc. It started off, as something like a reward system for Alex, at the same time it was made to test Alex's current abilities. The annual bet as the name implies, can only be done once a year.
Alex was the one who decided the stakes of the bet and once that was established Carlo would set the parameters of the bet.
Carlo had always honored the rules of the annual bet, even in the most ridiculous of situations. So even in this situation he needed to honor the rules, cause if he didn't honor the rules, something really bad might actually happen.
"To think you'll use the annual bet like this... Fine... So, Alex what do you want? Even if you don't say I think I can already guess what it is." Carlo sighed as he looked at his son.
