Chapter 97
I walked back into the living room and sat next to Yolin, who was focused on the cards in front of her. The cards were simple compressed paper with glowing symbols. They had seven different symbols and numbers from 1 to 10. The game she was playing with Bonte worked similarly to Poker, but with a hundred more rules and stuff. Not my choice of gamble. It’s gacha for me.
"Who was it?" Lapia asked me, nodding at the door.
"Letters," I replied with a shrug, leaning my head on Yolin’s shoulder and focusing on Bromisnar’s music. "What does morsel mean?"
"Something very small, or in tiny amounts," Alyssa supplied.
"Ah, I see-" I began.
"And that’s an Ambitious Full-throttle Fortuna!" Bonte suddenly cheered, dropping his cards on the table. "I win."
Yolin clicked her tongue and threw the cards on the table while leaning backwards.
"Why can’t I win? I’ve been playing this game for longer than you’ve been alive..." she grumbled, crossing her arms.
"Well," the Tigea began, giving the Oni a shit eating grin. "It’s not how long you have done something, but how much of it you master..."
The man leaned forward and gathered the many gold coins on the table while snickering, then put them in a bag that disappeared into his storage item.
I hummed, then closed in on Yolin’s ear.
