97 Dice and willows

"Now do you want to play a game or what?"

Bringing all kind of games to the table, the mysterious figure who looked exactly like him smiled as if not having a care in the world

And Ye Tian seeing this after calming down couldn't help but find the current scenario amusing

*hmm, looking form his action just now it's obvious no matter what I ask him he's just going to say he's me*

*but then again, that itself might not be actually false*

Putting one hand on his chin, Ye Tian couldn't help but think of the past and after remembering for a bit he realised that such situations in the crazy world he lived in weren't completely impossible

In his former life, he had encountered all kinds of things over the course of several millennia

Once he encountered an inner demon bread by the magic of the demon god Luo huo and his hatred and resentment against humanity

And as something born of him, it much of a stretch to call it a second him since it possessed most of his characteristics at least on the physical side

Unfortunately even a demon god such as luo huo was unable to replicate his true ability making it easy for him to take it down

Another time the human federation in an attempt to create an unlimited amount of soldiers begun to develop clone technology and created millions of clones using the nation gene pool which his managed to be part off

That clone also a complete genetic copy of him while unable to awaken his fake becomes real ability awakened an SS class absorption ability which much like devour could retain characteristics from any thing it absorbed

And while this might not seem like much at the early stage, if developed to the fullest it could absorb intangible things such as time, life, luck and pretty much almost anything

It was due to this after discovering its potential Ye Tian back then quickly nipped it in the bud but killing him, taking his place, pretending to be him for a while to gain the ability and then faking his death before pursuing the next secret identity

However now that he thought about it, the clone was a complete genetic replica of him which could also be called him an another sense

*Haha is it just me or why does it seem like another me was always appearing in my past life*

*could it be that the universe will saw I was too powerful and wanted to create my opposite to counteract me?*

*if that's the case, sorry universe but you failed!*

Saying this in his mind, Although on the outside Ye Tian still had a smile on his face but inwardly he seriously began to examine the feasibility of this matter

And after thinking for a bit, the realisation that Ye Tian came to was that this was completely possible

Don't look at novels and comics making stories about the protagonist and villain, Ye Tian as a former powerhouse knew that such a thing as luck did exist

And with enough luck, calling yourself the protagonist or son of destiny wouldn't be an exaggeration

"Ahem, are you going to play or not?"

"If not, then I might get a bit angry!"

Just as Ye Tian was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a deadly, dark and gloomy aura press toward him

Silence...

Hearing Ye Tians words, the figure couldn't help but be silent obviously not expecting him to reply like this

However after a few seconds silence it burst out laughing along with it the whole space began to shake

"Haha amazing! Interesting! Now I suddenly can't wait to play this game"

"However let's make one change, if I win I don't want anything but your soul"

"And if you win, then then I'll answer any questions you may have"

As it said this, Ye Tian seemed to feel a huge pressure descend onto him along with multiple eyes staring at him on all directions

Feeling this, Ye Tian knew if he backed out now then the only result would be his death if not serious injury

Fortunately, as the one who proposed the deal, Ye Tian had no intention of backing out

*Ava, don't let me down!*

Talking to Ava in his mind, Ye Tian looked at the willow in front of him with a confident smile as if he was completely unaffected by the surrounding aura

"Deal!"

"You go first"

Saying this, Ye Tian through the dice back to him waiting for him to make his move first

.........

Dice.....

Once if not the simplest of all games out there, with only few rules to it

To begin with, Each player rolls two dice and writes the highest value number that you can make with the two numbers on the dice.

For instance, if a player rolls a 6 and a 1, they would write "61". The next player rolls the dice and tries to beat that number. The player with the highest number on a round, scores a point.

Just looking at it, it looked like an ordinary game that required no skills and only luck

However, in a world filled with extraordinary powers and abilities, all kinds of strange ways to cheat were possible making a simple game such as this become complex

If Ye tians guess was right, then the mysterious willow in front of him must also have a way to cheat or at least secure its victory

Something that Ye Tian who had never played before nor had abilities for would obviously loose too

However even with all this, Ye Tian still retain a confident posture as he watched the willow use a branch to shake the dice

"Human let's begin, remember its best out of three!"

Saying this the willow threw his dice onto the table
