Chapter 49 – 32-6. Royal Casino.

Royal Casino Dice.

The rules of the game were pretty simple.

Each player distributes six dice and draws out an unopened card to determine the number of cards.

Then you draw a card, roll several dice on the table if the number is 50, and win if the sum of the dice is close to 50.

It can be said to be a game that is subtly similar to blackjack, but blackjack had to be close to a fixed number of 21, and dice is a game where the person close to the number written on the card wins.

“You should know the rules. Then we decide how many cards we will use in this game.”

Daos taps the unopened card and asks Allen.

“How many do you want?”
“I don’t want a big penalty anyway, so why don’t you try to play with at least 10 cards?”

A total of 10 cards.

It wasn’t bad.

If it’s entertainment like this, even the half-forced bastards will agree to some extent, and if it’s 10 cards, the penalty for losing won’t be too big…

“I’ll take it. Who makes card bets?”
“Of course, I have to ask Maros-sama who made this game happen, right?”
“Huh? Ah, that, that’s what.”

‘The bastard is clearly flinching…’

Confused, Maros shuffles a total of 100 cards skillfully and sets 10 cards on the table.

‘The problem is that life and death depend on which number card comes out.’

Allen looks at the ten cards lying on the table with his arms crossed.

“Even if you look at it like that, you can’t see the card.”

When I saw Daos, who tackled my actions in every case, I even had the illusion that this might not be the last game, but the first game.

“Let’s begin.”

A game of pure luck.

Allen recalls the rules of her game as she sees a total of six dice in front of her.

12-sided dice, 8-sided dice, 6-sided dice, 4-sided dice, 6-sided dice engraved with 3 plus or minus plus 6-sided dice engraved with multiplication and division.

A total of six dice. And she had to include two numbered dice, a plus-minus die, and a multiplication-division die to participate in the game.

For example, if the opened card was 67, one of the number dice and two and the arithmetic dice had to belong unconditionally.

Also, the dice used in the first game cannot be used in the next game, and the dice are set again from the third game.

To put it simply, the dodecahedron, tetrahedron, and plus-minus dice are the first game, and the remaining octahedron, six-sided dice, and multiplication and division dice are the second game. And reset from the third game. After that it repeats infinitely.

First of all, I don’t know the number of cards that will be opened first and the number of cards that will come out after that, but the limited six dice had to be used in combination.

If a number card of 40 is drawn and the remaining dice are 6-sided, 4-sided, and multiplied dice, the maximum total will only be 24?

So whatever number comes up close, but not close. It is a subtly profound game where you have to mix the dice well and anticipate the numbers that will come later.

“Before we begin. Would you like to add options for the Dice game?”
“What else is that?”
“To be honest, you don’t know what number 10 cards are? For example, even if you get the number 129, isn’t the sum of the dice with the highest number only 96?”
“Stop the noise and speak up.”

Ahead before starting the game. Daos gives me the offer I made in the previous game again.

“It’s simple. Just add a helpful card.”

Looking at Daos who explained at length and spoke skillfully at the same time, I wondered why he might have prepared a comment.

Daos’ explanation was simple.

To put it simply, the golden card of Bur Marble is applied to each game, which is helpful out of a total of ten games in the progress of the game.

“How are you?”
“It must be fun. It’s not bad to have a comeback or defeat decided by a single card.”
“Then proceed…”
“Instead of accepting it, we’ll add one more rule. On the unopened trump card. How about writing the card you want on the unified cards from 2 to 6? Then, why don’t you show it to Maros-sama who is standing here and check it? “
“That’s an interesting idea. Okay. Instead, let’s say that if this card comes out, someone won’t win.”

Adding golden cards to the dice game, we discussed forbidden phrases.

“Okay. Then I’ll say it again, cards that are biased towards victory declarations and defeat declarations are prohibited. Draws are also prohibited. And personal cards are prohibited. You know.”
“Okay, write it down.”

Maros, who took out an unopened trump card again, handed out the cards.

Cards from 2 to 6 of clubs to Daos.
Diamond 2 to 6 cards are for me.

We write the phrase we thought of on the front of the trump card, not the back, and Daos, who finished writing first, handed the five clover cards to Maros.

“Is there anything wrong?”
“Umm… Yes. There’s nothing wrong. Instead, I’ll record the card.”
“All right.”

‘Young. It looks like it has a head though. It’s a very good practice to record in advance to prevent cheating.’

Looking at the meticulous records, I saw that he was doing well even without my order, so the anger of the betting work a while ago subsided slightly.

But…

‘Maros. Listen to me like this Act casually.’

I thought I would be surprised by the sudden sound, but surprisingly calm Maros arranges the cards and puts them on the table.

‘Don’t be surprised if you see my card. Got it?’

“I wrote everything down. Please review.”
“I get it.”

Allen hands the card to Maros.

“There’s nothing wrong. Let’s mark this as well. So before the game starts, is everyone ready?”

I thought the solemn atmosphere would not suit it, but I was rather surprised that it went well with it.

‘Bastard… Catching Gao.’

“Yes, I’m ready.”
“I’m ready too.”
“Then let’s begin.”

Daos shuffling the participants’ cards. Then, the shuffled 10 trump cards are placed on the table and one of the 10 face-down dice cards is turned over.

****

As if suffocating, an invisible hand squeezed my throat.

Just started playing the first edition.

Before I started, only feelings of desolation had dominated me, but not now.

No, the truth is a lie. Can you feel the feeling of desolation?

Just lies to deceive yourself. It was just a lie to believe that it was so desolate.

“The first card is 65. Everyone please set the dice within 30 seconds.”

Calm down, you asshole. If you don’t want to lose like this and become a real idiot, focus…

Allen, who calms himself in the depths of chaos, takes a deep breath lightly.

Only 15 seconds left. But Allen’s breath opened her eyes, and with a predestined movement of her hands, she displayed her dodecahedron dice, tetrahedral dice, and plus-minus dice.

Dodecahedron and tetrahedral dice, plus minus dice.

The largest sum is only 18 eyes. I couldn’t even get close to the number 65 with this. No, the probability of getting 18 eyes was extremely bad.

“If you’re ready, throw the dice.”

Still, Allen bet the dice. In the first round, the most unfavorable dice hit Allen’s hand, and the dice were thrown.

Dice rolling around on an old table.

“Daos’s total eye is 42. Allen’s total eye is 13. Then let’s open the card.”

The dice of Daos came out 7. 6. 6. Multiplication of octahedron. The second highest possible number on the dice now.
Allen’s dice yielded 3 additions of a dodecahedron, 10, and a tetrahedron. The fourth highest possible number on the dice now.

Obviously Allen lost. Overwhelming defeat. I would have despaired of the obvious difference of 29.

However, the golden card was not opened.

“Then let’s draw a card.”

Maros uses a polite tone and draws a card.

And… Everyone holds their breath, and those who wonder what the card Maros drew hides their own boiling joy and despair.

At the same time as the card is drawn, it is opened in the center of the table for all to see.

– The lower number wins.

Wording on the card. Inter alia

A phrase drawn on Diamond 4. The card was Allen’s card, a card with Allen’s own words engraved on it.

“Huh… I’m so fucking scared.”

As the cards opened and Maros informed me of my victory, the people who bet on me started to go wild, while the people who bet on Daos were swearing.

“You’re lucky.”

Daos grins while talking to Allen, who breathes a sigh of relief.

Is it because it’s still the first edition? Daos gave me a chip, showing that he was fine even after being defeated despite people’s booing, as usual.

‘The bastard is strong enough to fall into anything.’

The golden card I wrote, the overall probability of my card appearing is at most 10%.

I didn’t want to bet on the game, trembling with nervousness and anxiety because I didn’t know what the golden card each of them had written.

In a word, just like Daos said, he was lucky.

“It’s a game where fate is determined by luck, so I can’t show my skills.”

When Daos tells them to bring back the thrown dice and proceed with the next game, Maros also hurriedly organizes the results of the first game and prepares for the next game, informing people that the first game is over.

“The first game of dice is over! Allen is the winner, Daos is the loser! Now, let’s wait for the dice thrown and prepare for the next game.”

Maros, who tore and destroyed the card 65 and Allen’s golden card, began the second setting.

‘I’m glad my card came out in the first round… But if it didn’t come out, I would have lost.’

Truly reversed from the first edition. Thanks to the golden card that overturned the obvious difference, Allen wiped the sweat from his brow as he won the first long victory.

The previous game before the dice was also under pressure, but not as much as the last game.

Just luck. In a game of luck that can’t even cheat, one part of the body becomes a flawed idiot.

‘I have to be careful now.’

From the second game onwards, players were forced to use unused dice hands.

Fortunately, in Allen’s case, 8-sided, 4-sided, multiply-divide dice.

In the case of Daos, there are now 12-sided and 4-sided Plama dice left.

Still, carelessness was forbidden. What if a low number comes out instead of a high number like before? What if a stepping stone is prepared for a reversal in the golden card?

This match is fierce, but everything is ruled by golden cards.

The current number of golden cards is nine, Daos’s is five, mine is four.

If my card came out next time, it was clear that I would lose, and if Daos’s card came out, there was a slight chance of winning… No. Just because anything is good, I think I’d be happy if it came out well… That won’t happen.

Because the last game is absolute luck. It’s just a matter of luck.
