Chapter 415 Why do you want to go back to that world?
Outside the largest tavern in Elkia.
The blank brother and sister who had been separated from Lu Qiming came straight here. For them, a crowded tavern is the best place to find out the information they need. Although these are things they usually know from games or comics, as for reality, what do you think?
Would two dead nerds who never even left the house have ever been to a place like this?
Although it was their first time to go to the tavern, Sora and Shiro still pretended to be calm and looked at the crowds coming in and out. People could be seen everywhere here playing various games and placing bets that they thought were equal.
But more people focused on the two girls playing poker games in the center of the tavern. Many people even sneered and looked at the tangled face and stared at the cards in their hands with sarcasm.
girl.
"I said, can you hurry up?"
At this time, the girl with purple hair and veil sitting opposite gently raised the wine glass in front of her and took a sip. Then she slightly raised her face to look at the opposite side and asked in a calm tone.
"You're so verbose, I'm just thinking about what this place should be like."
The girl opposite, Stephanie Dora, looked at the playing cards in her hand in panic. She was completely at a disadvantage and didn't know what to do, because if she lost this game, she would lose her status as the heir to the king of the human species.
.
But how could she give up so easily? This was the treasure left to her by her grandfather, and Stephanie Dora wanted or had to prove one thing, that is, her grandfather was not the Fool King as people said!
"Stop struggling, no matter how much you think, your brain will not change."
Kurami Jer's face covered by the veil looked at Stephen opposite with a helpless expression. She did not expect that the next successor to the human king would look like this. No wonder the human territory has remained unchanged over the years.
It was taken away by other races, and in the end only the capital Elkia was left.
'So I must win and become the king of the human species, so that the human species can survive under her leadership even as a puppet of the elf species!'
Thinking of this, Kurami Jel's eyes became extremely determined. After all, she had grown up as a slave of the elf species since she was a child, and she clearly understood the power of races other than the human race. That is the human race that is so powerless without the Elf Corridor.
An absolutely irresistible force!
Even Kurami sometimes thinks that if the restrictions of the ten covenants are lost, how else can the human race survive except becoming the puppet of other races? After all, let’s not talk about the top races among the sixteen races.
Among the forest elf species, many of them have the ability to single-handedly destroy the human race.
The reason why Kurami, who is now an elf slave, is here to compete with Stephen for the position of king of the human species is that he accepted the order from the elf species and relied on the magical support from there to win the position of king of the human species.
Secretly becoming the puppet of the elf species.
However, Kurami did not reject this too much. In her opinion, humans, who are now on the verge of extinction and have only the last territory left, will be annexed and destroyed by other races in the near future. It is better for her to become the king and the elf species.
The puppet lives on.
At least in this way, the human species can maintain its last territory and not perish.
"What's going on over there?"
At the door of the tavern, Kong patted the blond sister lying on the table drinking beside him and asked curiously. Kong had an intuition that the game being played over there contained the information they needed.
"Um, is it the next king election gambling conference?"
The blond elder sister lying on the table raised her heavily made-up face, and was just about to give a few words to the guy who interrupted her drinking. When she saw Sora's handsome but slightly childish face, she acted with great justice without leaving any trace.
He pointed over there and said.
"King election gambling convention?"
Sora was stunned when he heard what the blond elder sister said. This was the first time he had seen such a method used to elect the king. Should it be said that this is a world where everything is decided by games?
"This is the last word of the previous king. The next king will crown the strongest gambler in mankind."
"Even the king is decided by games, it's really interesting!"
As he spoke, Sora turned his head to look at the two people playing games in the center of the tavern. The next second Sora noticed Kurami who seemed to be calm and composed, but was actually looking behind him from the corner of his eye from time to time. Sora noticed the crowd of onlookers.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly when he saw the figure covered in black robe.
'So this is ah'
Snapped!
"Bai, are you okay?"
When I was just thinking, I suddenly felt Bai next to me leaning on his thigh. I quickly lowered my head and saw Bai leaning on his leg with his eyes closed. There was an unconcealable sleepiness on his face, but Bai would be like this.
It's normal, even Sora is holding on forcefully now.
After all, before they came to this world, the two brothers and sisters had been playing games for several days and nights. In addition, they were suddenly brought to this world and fell directly from the atmosphere. To be honest, it was as if Lu Qiming had not given them a drink before.
A bowl of soup of the century, my body can no longer hold it any longer.
But even if my body can still hold on now, my spirit has already reached its limit.
"fine."
Bai closed his eyes and rubbed against Sora like a kitten that was about to fall asleep. He stood upright unsteadily, with a dazed expression on his cute little face. Sora stretched out his hand and touched Bai's little head.
, raised his head and looked at the blond sister from before, or the bulging money bag in her hand.
"What? Brother, are you obsessed with me? However, since it is you, it is not impossible, and it seems that you are still a little boy. Big sister, I can give you a red envelope!"
Saying that, the blond elder sister stood up and walked to Sora's side. The huge justice shook Sora a little dizzy, but then a pungent, strong smell of inferior perfume made Sora subconsciously take a few steps back, and then quickly pointed to the table.
The money bag means that what you want is that thing.
"It turns out that you want this, little brother. Well, let's play a game. I will use the money to make bets. If I win, you know. Of course, if I lose, these will all be yours.
"
The blond sister looked at Sora pointing at her money bag, turned back to the table, picked up a deck of playing cards and looked at Rick. However, less than two minutes later, Sora picked up the money on the table.
He took the bag, thanked the stunned blond sister in front of him, and walked into the tavern.
"Brother, you are so cunning, such a simple and easy-to-understand cheat."
In the tavern, Bai raised his bewildered little face and looked at Sora. It seemed that there was no cheating in the game just now, but in fact, Sora's intelligence already knew what each card was. For him, no matter what he wanted to get,
It's easy to choose any cards or let your opponent get any cards.
"Hmph~ The eighth of the ten covenants is that there are illegitimate actors in the game. Once exposed, it will be regarded as a defeat. In other words, as long as they are not exposed, there will be no problem. And isn't that guy over there the best proof of this?
?”
Kong took out his mobile phone and pointed at the ten covenants recorded on it, then raised his head and looked at the guy in black robes among the crowd of spectators not far away.
"Well, but how much is it?"
Bai nodded obediently and looked at the money bag in Kong's hand. The gold coins in it were not the currency they were familiar with. In addition, on their first day in this world, they had no idea about the value of these gold coins.
"Who knows, but leave it to me, bargaining is my specialty!"
Kong rubbed Bai's little head, threw the money bag in his hand, and walked directly to the counter of the tavern with Bai, took out a gold coin from the bag and put it down, looking at it with a calm smile on his face.
Xiangzheng is recording something to the moustachioed man.
"A double room with one bed is enough. How many days can I stay in this room?"
"One day."
Mustache raised his head slightly and glanced at Sora in front of him, and then said casually.
"Hahaha, I'm almost exhausted. Can you tell me quickly how many days you can stay? In addition, you'd better pay more attention to your eyesight and tone of voice when you lie."
Kong leaned in front of the counter and looked at the man in front of him, with a faint smile on his face, but his voice was deliberately raised a lot to attract the attention of the people around him.
"Hey! Two days."
The mustache looked at Sora, who was smiling in front of him, and the crowd looking around, and he grunted unhappily and continued.
"Look, I lied again. Let's talk first and choose the person we talk to carefully. Do you understand?"
As he spoke, Kong leaned forward slightly, his eyes staring at the man in front of him as if he could see through everything. Seeing this, the man with the mustache knew that the young man in front of him was not simple at all. He turned around and took out a key and said "Four days later,"
Handed it to Sora.
"Okay, four days, thank you very much for the hospitality."
Sora took the key casually, turned it around on his finger and walked towards Shiro who was taking pictures of Stephen and Kurami, but he glanced at the whole body next to him without leaving any trace when passing by the crowd.
A figure shrouded in black robes.
"It's been a long wait."
"Brother, that person is going to lose."
Bai raised his head and glanced at Sora, then looked at Stephen who was looking at the cards in his hand with a troubled expression. In just a few seconds, Bai had already calculated all the cards on the table and the cards in the hands of Stephen and Kurami.
, so now Bai Wubi is sure that Stephen has lost.
Even though the game between the two sides is not over yet, the answer has been revealed.
"That's natural. Even my opponent doesn't have a poker face like that. The opponent has completely seen through it, not to mention that the opponent has a thousand tricks."
Sora looked at Stephen, whose facial expression was vivid. With her look, he could tell what was in her hand without having to guess. Moreover, when Sora saw the card in Kurami's hand, he was even more sure that the opponent was a cheater.
thing.
"It's not wrong, but I don't know what method to use?"
Little Bai nodded her head slightly, stared at the cards in Kurami's hand and began to calculate quickly, but no matter how she calculated, she couldn't find the correct answer. The other party completely cheated using a method she didn't know about.
The cheating method must be the so-called magic.
"That, uh, uh, uh, uh, that's it!"
On the table, Stephen looked at the messy cards in her hand and her voice sounded like tears. But when Stephen picked up the next card, a relieved smile suddenly appeared on her face. Just when she confidently put the cards in her hand
The moment she was about to hit her out, a hand suddenly pressed on her shoulder, and a deep male voice sounded.
"You have been tricked."
Stephen was stunned when he heard the words in his ears, and quickly turned his head to look, but he only saw a tall and a short figure walking up the stairs. On the opposite side, Kurami looked at the blank brother and sister walking away, and his face became solemn under the veil.
Get up, she heard something just now.
But you must know that no human has ever seen through her cheating with magic before, but the human boy in front of him saw it at a glance, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart.
The next second, Kurami suppressed this worry. She was just a human race that could not use magic. Even if she knew that she cheated with magic, so what? Even if she knew, there was no way to expose it, and
Kurami raised his head and looked at Stephen in front of him. As long as he defeated her here, he would be the king of the human race.
"Then, can we have a showdown?"
"Of course!"
Stephen, who suddenly heard Kurami's voice opposite, quickly turned his head and put the cards in his hand on the table. Kurami, who was opposite, also put down the cards at the same time. The afterglow of the setting sun outside the window illuminated the tears in Stephen's eyes.
In the room on the second floor, Sora and Shiro took out all their belongings and put them on the table and began to organize them.
"Mobile phone plus DSP, tablet computer, battery and solar charger and data cable."
Sora looked at the things on the table one by one, then placed the solar charging panel in the sunshine in front of the window, and then plugged in the mobile phone that was almost running out of power.
"only these?"
Bai, who was lying on the bed, raised his little head in a daze, opened his eyes and looked at the sky.
"Well, but in that case, it's a shame that we can still keep these things!"
Kong nodded and looked at the things in front of him. You must know that they were suddenly pulled from home to this world by Tetu, or fell directly from the atmosphere. It was a bit unexpected for Kong to leave these things behind.
"Brother, there is no signal?"
At this time, Bai, who was lying on the bed, raised his mobile phone high, but there was still no response from the signal bar, which meant that all the networking functions of their mobile phones were now lost.
"That's for sure. After all, this is a veritable fantasy world. However, cheating should be stopped in moderation!"
Sora gently raised his hand and rubbed Shiro's little head, turned his head and looked out the window at the scene that originally only existed in fantasy and comics, and then thought of the man downstairs who was completely shrouded in black robes, and whose eyes really glowed with purple.
The figure of light, relying on magic to cheat is really cheating in every sense of the word!
"Brother, did you win that person?"
Bai turned over and lay down and looked at Sora who was looking out the window. The image of the previous figure appeared in his mind, especially the purple lines shining in her pupils.
"Aww~ I asked a stupid question."
The next second, Bai looked at Sora who was silent and muttered, then obediently closed his eyes and fell asleep next to Sora.
"Now, let me put it bluntly, the protagonists in the stories about drifting in another world will try their best to return to the original world. Why would they want to return to that world?"
"Bai thinks so too."
Sora turned his head and looked at Shiro who was sleeping beside him and smiled softly. He stretched out his hand to pull up the quilt and covered Shiro's body. Looking at Shiro's sleeping face, Sora gradually made up his mind since he didn't intend to go back to that garbage time.
, then just live well in this world, and then
"Then it's decided! The game begins!"
"The game has begun. Sora, what game are you going to play? You must know that Sora is still underage. What you do is illegal."
The next second, Lu Qiming suddenly appeared in the room, with a smirk on his face as he looked at Sora who put his hands on the sleeping Bai. After all, the way Sora looked now was similar to what his brother planned in some unspeakable comics.
The beginning of what I do to my sister is exactly the same.
"Ahem! Qiming, when did you come back, and who is the one next to you?"
Kong looked at Lu Qiming who suddenly appeared, and quickly took his hands away from Bai's body. Just when he was about to explain that he was just covering Bai with a quilt, he suddenly realized that he really didn't intend to do anything. He quickly raised his head and looked at Lu Qiming.
Only then did he notice Jibril standing behind Lu Qiming, looking at him with contempt.
With those golden pupils, the wings spread around her waist, the blue halo above her head, and her imposing manner, just standing in front of him was like facing a top predator. In an instant, Sora understood that the girl in front of him was another one that he had never seen before.
One of the sixteen races.
"Jibril is a member of the Flügel. Don't worry, but Kong, she is on our side now."
Lu Qiming looked at Sora in front of him and smiled softly, then waved to Jibril beside him to ask her to put down her momentum. After all, Sora was still an ordinary person now and could not withstand Jibril's pressure.
A trace.
What's more, there is a cute little loli sleeping in the room. How can you disturb the cute little loli?
"Yes, Qiming, but why did you come to find these two lowly monkeys?"
When Jibril saw Lu Qiming's actions, she also put back her outward aura, but the contempt and arrogance in her eyes still did not disappear. In her opinion, the blank brothers and sisters in front of her were just low-level monkeys. If it weren't for Lu Qiming,
Qiming, she didn't even bother to pay attention to this kind of existence.
"Well, Jibril, Sora and Shiro are not human beings in this world. Strictly speaking, they are existences summoned to this world by Tetu himself. By the way, the two brothers and sisters were defeated head-on in the game before.
Tetu, and did you see that thing next to Sora, which contains 40,000 books from another world?"
Lu Qiming looked at the arrogant Jibril next to him speechlessly. If this guy hadn't appeared, Jibril would have lost to the brother and sister she looked down on soon. Of course, Lu Qiming would not say such words.
When he came out, he only told her the identity of the blank brother and sister and some other things.
"!!!, what! They are also from another world like you, Qiming, and Tut was defeated by their brothers and sisters, and there are 40,000 books in that small book that I have never seen before.
!”
The moment Lu Qiming finished speaking, Jibril rushed directly in front of Sora, staring at the two Sora brothers with a perverted (meow) expression on her face, and then picked up the tablet calculator next to her.
The saliva from the corner of his mouth flowed out like a stream.
"Hey, hey, hey! The saliva is all over Bai's face!"
The corner of Kong's mouth twitched as he looked at Jibril, who was drooling as if looking at his two siblings and the tablet computer in front of him. In just a few seconds, what happened to Jibril in Kong's heart
His condescending and arrogant attitude has completely ruined everything.
"Ahem! I'm sorry. Please forgive me for thinking you are low-level monkeys. I apologize to you here. In addition, Qiming said that you won that Tut and were summoned to this world by him. This is true.
Of?"
The next second she heard Sora's voice, Jibril quickly wiped the crystals from the corners of her mouth, and even wiped away the ones that fell on Shiro's face, with a serious look on her face as she thought that Sora and Shiro were low-level monkeys before.
Start apologizing for this.
Then, Jibril's expression became extremely serious and asked. Although she did not doubt Lu Qiming, she needed to personally confirm whether it was true that the Blank brothers and sisters caused that special figure to lose.
"Well, Bai and I were suddenly challenged by Tetu before. We didn't really care at first, but after we defeated him, he suddenly asked us how we felt about the previous world, and then after getting the answer, he
We are brought into this world.
However, Qiming, why do you know this? Could it be that the reason why you came to this world before was because you won Tetu in other worlds, so you were brought here?"
After saying that, Kong raised his head and looked at Lu Qiming in front of him. From Lu Qiming's familiarity with this world before, to now knowing what happened before they came to this world, Kong became more and more confused about why Lu Qiming knew this.
Curious.
"No, strictly speaking, Kong and I came to this world in different ways. You were summoned by Tetu to come to this world, but I came to this world with the power of my own system.
World, as for why I know this, I can’t tell you yet, but I will tell you everything after I win the Star Cup.”
Lu Qiming looked at Sora who was looking at him in front of him and smiled slightly. As for why he didn't tell Sora like he did with Yakumo Murasaki and the others, in fact, he had read a story called Game of Life in which brother and sister were the protagonists before.
It's entirely because Lu Qiming believes that as long as he speaks out, the guy from Tetu will definitely know about it. In addition, for Lu Qiming, the plot really has no effect. After all, this is a real world.
