“Chapter 179: Game”

– Gambling? (Raviola)

– Yeah. Rules are simple. I’ll toss these 5 coins. Heads, you win. Tails, I win.

– Is this what you meant by hostages? (Raviola)

– Exactly! For each win I get, your friends will drop one by one. Allow me to demonstrate. Call.

Zezekiel lifted a rock the size of my head into the air.

– Raise.

The rock shattered into pieces after being slammed against the ground with enough strength to overkill a human.

– If you win, I’ll pay compensation. Let’s see… I’ll offer both my arms, legs, and then my heart. How does that sound?

– You’re insane.

If this goes well, we could get out of this without any sacrifices.

Getting 5 heads in a row is not impossible, but it’s stupidly hard.

Besides, this is one of the Four Fiendish Guardians we’re talking about. Even if she pierced her own heart, she probably has a trump card hidden to ensure her win.

A limb for one side, an entire life for the other side.

– So? Do you want to play or not? I’ll give you 10 seconds to decide before I drop that little boy over there.

– Kh…

Suddenly, my shoulders felt an invisible weight latching on them.

– You fil-

– Filthy demon, right? I know. I’m a demon, remember? This is what we do.

Raviola is still trying to combat the gravity. One step forward, then another, but her feet keep sinking further underground.

Even if she tried to attack, Zezekiel would easily dodge her attacks.

– Ten, nine, eight, seven, siiiix…

Damn it, she’s serious. I’ll end up like those corpses around her.

– Five, four, three, two, oooone…

– ALRIGHT. I’ll take the bet.

– Ravi… (Ergeet)

– Takaya is one of us, whether you like it or not. I can’t just throw away his life.

– But princess…

– Haha, you’re an interesting one.

– Tch… I have one condition.

– Oh? What would that be? I’m feeling nice today.

Raviola looked at the demon guardian and pointed at me.

– Takaya will toss the coins.
