"You don't seem nervous."

Looking at the face of "Annan", the rotten man said leisurely: "But now I have won two games in a row......"

"You've played your cards well!"

Husky screamed strangely and interrupted the rotten man directly: "That's how the game is played, my friend! ”

"Oh? You do that to your brother...... So hateful? ”

The rotten man squinted: "Don't hesitate to pretend to be crazy and stupid, but also abolish the possibility of him as an heir?" ”

"It's suffocating, you play your cards quickly, and the eunuch dies."

The husky said bluntly: "Oh...... Wait, is it my turn? ”

She complained, "It's all because you thought about it for too long and messed up my train of thought." ”

- Did you have an idea?

Mary, who watched the nightmare, was shocked.

“…… So you do want to lose. ”

It was only now that the rotten man was finally able to judge ...... "Annan" was indeed hoping for defeat.

Because he dared to provoke himself directly, without worrying—or, unbeknownst to him, the rotten man could actually kill him right now.

The reason why they didn't do this was not because they were afraid of their grandmothers.

After all, there are not a few dead sons of winter, and besides, this was originally summoned by himself, not by the rotten man himself.

The old grandmother is reasonable. She is the goddess of tradition, and even the word "reasoning" itself was coined by her, the first act performed by her clergy.

The rotten man did not attack Annan directly, simply because......

The "price code" proposed by Annan in the ceremony really moved him.

If you can make Dmitry, the eldest son, no heir, and then exile Annan and let Dmitry gain control of the principality. Then the progress of His ritual can be directly advanced by two-sevenths.

The price is just to play with them, but it's nothing.

After all, He couldn't lose.

It's normal to bet on anything for a win.

These cheats are all leftovers from the time he played.

The rotten man narrowed his eyes and said bluntly: "Or, your goal is to enter the third round of the game."

"It can't be Dmitry's or Annan's nightmare, so there's only one answer......

"It's that little wolf cub's nightmare, isn't it?"

After He finally had enough evidence to be convinced that it was a nightmare.

The surrounding stone chambers began to shake.

There is a collapse of powder and gravel......

- But the nightmare did not collapse after all.

“…… He realized it was a nightmare. ”

Maria sighed, "But why didn't the nightmare collapse?" ”

"Because He doesn't want to."

Annan whispered, "I read a book about rotten men before. The Tower of a Thousand Faces in the Church today was a long, long time ago...... But in his homeland, the fallen dynasty whose scientific name is "Gupta Kingdom". ”

As the saying goes, if you gamble for a long time, you will lose.

No matter how ingenious the skill and how precise the probability, there is no match for cheating—the rotten man has clearly understood this truth for a long time, and has paid a considerable price.

— for example, the root of His life.

It is different from today's self-contained, freedom-seeking underground federations.

As the predecessor of the Underground Federation, the Eastern Desert Kingdom Gupta was originally used to duel with a scimitar.

Later, after a certain king issued the "Blood-hating Decree", all methods of dueling with sharp weapons or attacking others with sharp weapons in the street were abolished. There wasn't even such a thing as a gun then.

Brawls are limited to bloodlessness, and anyone who bleeds others is enslaved and sold to others...... Unless the offender comes up with a large sum of money to "redeem" himself.

After that, the Gupta switched to "games" for gambling. But they don't allow for "failure" at no cost, so initially these games were all about gambling - the money part is very small, and more is a bet on some body parts, or the dominance of the other party.

"That is, gamblers."

Annan said softly.

This is seen by the desert people as a last resort to resolve disputes.

When the rotten man was seven years old, he was ...... When gambling with King Guptah, known as the "King of the White Robe", he was directly sentenced to lose because he was caught cheating, his life was chopped off and a slave mark was tattooed on his forehead, and he became a court eunuch and grew up with the children of the King of the White Robe.

In Gupta, "white skin" is a rare trait. Coupled with the beauty of the rotten man and the natural strange aroma, he became the lover of the white robe king while serving as the attendant of the young son of the white robe king.

Later, the rotten man found an opportunity and became an alchemist.

According to historical records, the White Robe King was eventually killed by the Assassins, who blew him up along with the toilet bowl when the White Robe King went to the toilet. The Assassin was later tracked down and executed.

According to the investigation of later scholars......

The White Robe King himself was a "Heka" who was proficient in idol spells, and he was also proficient in many of the now-lost prophetic and soul-snatching spells, and it was impossible not to have anticipated that someone would try to murder him.

- And the one who shields this part of his extraordinary ability is the rotten man.

When he was fourteen years old, he had an early insight that someone wanted to assassinate the White Robe King. Without communicating with the Assassin or revealing himself, he helped the Assassin distract the guards, sealed the White-robed King's foresight, poisoned him to weaken him, and smashed the Resurrection Stone Statue set up by the White-robed King.

However, since he is not directly related to the "assassin", the spell cannot track him.

Later, he helped the son of the White Robe King, the last monarch of the Gupta dynasty, to murder his thirteen brothers and six sisters and take the throne.

"Calamus King" has a gentle personality, is not good at national politics or military affairs, and what he most often does is to study various spices with the rotten man, and he tends to listen to the rotten man in everything. And the final result is that the rotten man secretly controls the country's politics, becomes a monarch in the actual sense, and kills many loyal and good.

“…… And the final story, you know. ”

Annan said.

Mary hesitated for a moment: "I think it seems that He would do this, not only because of his friendship with King Calamus, but also because of his personal desires......"

"Of course, there is also a considerable part of the emotions in it, which comes from his hatred for the white-robed king."

Annan said quietly: "It's the same situation with Henry VIII. He hated the country and wanted to destroy him—and before he could destroy it, he had killed almost all of the children of the White King. In the end, only three people remained...... Except for King Calamus, there are only his two younger sisters. ”

And in the end, the two sisters also died in the rotten man's experiment.

It was the ritual that the rotten man hoped to send the Calamus King to ascend, and the ritual he used when he ascended after he was executed by the enraged Calamus King.

"It is precisely because of this that ...... 'I' will find a rotten man to have a 'gambling fight'."

Annan concluded: "Because the rotten man could not choose to flee, and he would never kill me to vent his anger." No matter what means he uses, he must win.

"Losing to the White Robe King and being sold to the royal family was the beginning of his life of shame and suffering. And the gamble I launched against him with Dmitry hit him in the wrong place, and he couldn't escape it—"

Annan spoke, and in a trance seemed to see the silent and cold gaze of the former young Annan, and seemed to hear his words.

- Since gods also have human hearts.

So why can't it be used?

…… It's me.

Annan squinted his eyes and chuckled like a fox.
