The World-Class Extra’s Walkthrough - Chapter 19
Episode 19:
Reasonable Doubt
Hiran, the dark merchant in room 18, suddenly thought something was a bit strange.
‘Is something strange? what?’
The two games passed by in an instant.
The stake is around 20 gold coins and everyone is watching the season accordingly.
And in between. This unidentified noble boy experienced one victory and one defeat.
As a result, he took a small advantage and was driven by the desire to win big and gain even more in the next game.
‘In the beginning, it’s about losing a reasonable amount of money and fanning the desire to win more.’
Because that was Hyran’s plan.
It was a pre-set script, and it was also a common tactic of black market dealers who sucked out even the marrow of their opponents.
but.
Scratch, scratch….
The noble boy kept a blank expression while resting his chin on the table and scratching his cheek.
Normally, you would have to show at least a little bit of excitement or excitement.
But there was nothing like that at all.
He was scratching the bridge of his nose and throwing the dice, like someone sitting at a table he didn’t like.
So Hailan was confused.
‘Why all this expressionless expression?’
This level of poker face was difficult to find even among professional gamblers in the black market.
He looks like he’s only 20 years old now.
‘Looking at your outfit and your companions, it doesn’t look like you’re from here?’
So what is it?
Are you really just not thinking?
‘I don’t know.’
Hailan tried to organize his thoughts and prepare for the next game.
Anyway, what she had to do was decided.
Eating Hogu down to his bones.
No one can win against her if they don’t know the secrets of this game.
“Now here’s the third game.”
* * *
‘Now that I think about it, it’s been a while since I played this mini game.’
I was lost in memories for a moment while watching the horses and dice moving on the board.
There was a time when I was so immersed in it that I didn’t even touch anything else.
As I threw the dice on the table, a system message popped up.
[I got a 3.]
[I opened treasure chest number 4.]
[I got 5 gold coins!]
The red horse moved quickly on the board, and several gold coins rolled out and piled up on my side.
“congratulations.”
Hyran is the host of this game and my opponent.
She nodded.
“Then it’s my turn.”
The dice flew through the air.
[1 came out.]
It was only a 1, but it was a decisive blow.
“I will move back and open the treasure chest.”
Hylan’s blue horse, which was ahead of mine, moved back one space and opened another box.
[You have obtained 10 gold coins!]
Irgal, who was watching the scene blankly next to me, let out a groan.
“This is crazy. “I left the fish for the cat…”
He was complaining that I had already squandered all my money.
And my close associates were no different in treating me like a mean cat.
“They said they couldn’t give me a dog with my own habits! “I never thought I would come this far and end up like this!”
“I…! No, Nari! “You are truly amazing!”
The only thing quiet was Thompson, whose muzzle was confiscated by me.
Everyone was shouting at me, but I didn’t respond.
Because I couldn’t do that now.
Gambling begins with a fight for the resources you have.
I couldn’t explain in detail that I had no choice but to gamble because I had a lot of money right now.
‘It’s obvious that they will oppose it anyway.’
It’s easier and faster to just say it first and be forgiven than to explain it and get permission.
So, I was using their criticism as encouragement to move the game.
one more.
‘Once I start picking, everyone will have no choice but to change their stance, right?’
I laughed to myself and threw the dice.
< Dice of Death >
[Mini Game] This is a game that can be played by 2 to 4 people. When the turn comes, throw the dice and move the pieces on the board to claim the treasure chest!
A simpler explanation than this?
‘It’s like playing on the yut game board.’
However, it was also a much more aggressive and confusing game than the family game or everyone else’s game on New Year’s Day morning.
There are eight treasure chests placed at different intervals on the table board.
Before the game begins, a certain amount of prize money is assigned to each treasure chest, and the person who captures it first can take the prize money.
The goal of the game was to check each treasure chest first by moving the horse forward or backward by the number indicated by throwing the dice.
And the game ends only when anyone returns to the final goal and announces the end of the game.
This is similar to GoStop.
And this was the most fatal element in this game of ‘Death Dice’.
Even if you are greatly overtaken by your opponent and it seems like there is no hope of winning, you must fight along helplessly.
‘Because the game doesn’t end unless someone scores.’
If you want to prevent your opponent from eating the treasure chest, it may be faster to move your pieces backwards and return to the starting point.
But even returning to the beginning depends on the dice.
‘So it might be better to just close your eyes and run.’
So it was a scary game, and it was the perfect game for outsiders who wanted to rob Hogu.
Actually, this die was like that too.
“….”
I quietly looked at the old dice in my hand.
At first glance, the six-sided die, with its polished and worn edges, looked very ordinary.
But this was a device prepared to catch tigers.
‘Trick dice.’
I knew that from the beginning.
This was a dice that showed its eyes in an unconditional pattern.
‘Once you start with 6 and throw exactly 22 times, it’s a pattern that returns to the beginning.’
Since I couldn’t remember this perfectly, I needed some verification.
So I just skipped the first three games.
Meanwhile, I felt that Hiran was trying hard to get my reaction, but he didn’t join in.
‘6-4-4-1-5….’
Because I was busy learning the pattern.
And then the fourth game began.
‘Now it’s time to move.’
Otherwise, the back of my head might get burned by the looks in the eyes of the people standing behind me.
“This time, shall we start with 20 and raise 2 at a time, sir?”
When Hyran was valuing the gold coins that would go into each treasure chest.
“But you said earlier that the Shield of Balance costs 120 gold coins, I guess?”
I opened my mouth, pretending to be indifferent.
Then, Hailan slightly raised his head.
A keen sense of skill was visible in the woman’s eyes behind the mask. It seemed like a glimpse of the rough life in the back alleys.
“Yes, 120. “I told you that, right?”
However, I was a serious gambler who had faced this woman dozens of times in the original game.
So I was able to deal with her with a very relaxed look.
This wasn’t an offer to be refused anyway.
“Is it possible to bet with those items instead of gold coins? “When I think about it, I think it’s necessary.”
“iced coffee.”
Hailan thought for a moment and then nodded calmly.
“Yes, you can.”
But there was a condition.
“However, if we win, we have to pay an additional fee of 50% of the bet amount. Are you okay?”
…Mo or do.
If I eat a treasure chest with the Shield of Balance on it, I will get the shield for free.
On the other hand, if Hyran eats it, I have to hand over 180 gold coins that I haven’t even touched.
“Hmm.”
Next to me, I could hear Irgal taking a deep breath.
He looks scared.
But I nodded like nothing happened.
“is it so. “That’s about it.”
I wasn’t done with this.
“Let’s put another Shield of Balance on there.”
“You mean the same product? “I understand. You have a big barrel.”
“thank you. Also, please add ‘Forest Rosary’ and ‘Rapid Sal’. “It’ll be okay, right?”
“…yes?”
They looked confused when I suddenly added more items.
She calculated in her head for a moment and then tilted her head.
“Sir, then it’s 500 gold coins? If you add the additional fee, it becomes 750. “Are you sure you’re okay?”
The stakes have suddenly become so large that they are asking me if I have the ability to pay.
‘If you can’t pay, they’ll chase you to the demon world and get it.’
I took out all the gold coins in my bag and smiled.
“Wouldn’t it be necessary to walk that far to create some tension?”
“…phuh.”
When I was bluffing, laughter came out from somewhere.
who is this? Is it Carl’s?
Thompson lowered his head as he looked into my eyes.
“I’m sorry. “I can’t stand this.”
“…I confiscated your smile too.”
It will play a big role later, but I can’t hold back.
Anyway, 750 gold coins was already far beyond what I could afford.
But there was no need to back down.
‘Is this the perfect game to catch a tiger?’
Sorry, but I was more of an expert on this game than the dealer.
Trick dice?
That’s all I can use.
The rules and patterns were very honest and weren’t on anyone’s side.
‘Rather, it is on the side of those who know themselves and use them properly.’
Hyran nodded towards me.
“All right. He seemed strangely calm. I guess it was because the stakes were too low. “Then you might not have had any fun.”
“….”
Actually, that was because I was concentrating on learning the patterns of the dice.
“I will place the two Shields of Balance and Forest Rosary Quicksword you mentioned in the even-numbered treasure chest. And on odd-numbered numbers, let’s just lightly place 50 gold coins each.”
I nodded.
As a result, the total stake accumulated in this round was worth about 700 gold coins.
In particular, if I don’t eat the even-numbered treasure chest, the stakes I’ll have to cough up go up even higher.
“Are you sure Gilroshan will be okay?”
Irgal, who had finally realized that I had some intention, came closer and started whispering.
I paused for a moment but then smiled.
“There’s nothing you can do if you’re not okay, right?”
“If it’s not okay, you can just destroy everything and run away. “Because this is a black market.”
Of course, there may be a way to do that.
“Then we can’t get what we want. Where and how do I get the Shield of Balance now?”
“….”
“don’t worry. “It won’t take that long.”
Then Irgal walked away without a word.
As I assured you, the game will be over in no time.
If you play this one game, you won’t be able to play the next game even if you want to.
‘Anyway, I’m a little worried about something else.’
Earlier, when Irgal came closer to us.
Something feels a little strange and I feel nauseous.
…What is this?
“Then shall we begin?”
With Hyran’s voice, the dice were thrown to determine which horse would move first.
If an odd number comes up, my blue piece moves first, and if an even number comes up, the dealer’s red piece moves first.
But this was a meaningless procedure.
I knew full well that the dealer’s horse would make the first move.
‘Maybe I’ll get a 4?’
Binggrrrrtuk.
Even though he hides his expression, I can feel him smiling quietly.
“this. “I’m sorry, but I have to start with this game, right?”
…also.
[A 4 came out.]
Four eyes were clearly engraved on the top of the dice that had stopped spinning.
It was exactly as I expected.
“Yes, that’s right.”
I rested my chin and grinned.
I can clearly see the thoughts rolling behind that mask right now.
-Give away two from the odd-numbered boxes and one from the even-numbered boxes. Make them think they lost by a close margin, and try to get away with it again in the next game.
You must be thinking this way, right?
But I was the opposite.
I was just planning on getting rid of everything in this game and leaving.
