"Hello, Ladies and Gentlen! I am your host for tonight and have brought you four here because I intend to buy this place, but at the sa ti to play a little ga with you!"
His words startled the four of them, as he directly stated his intentions without even introducing himself, in fact even a fake introduction would be better than no introduction at all.
Furthermore, his words weren't an invite but more like an order that they could not refuse. He left them no other option.
But while the other three were feeling like this, the stingy owner had a much bigger worry than them, as he looked towards the masked Eric and said in a polite way,
"Esteed Master, your n didn't allow to say it the previous ti, but I must tell you that I had started the renovations before getting your offer, and had already spent around 5000$ already!
I hope that you include that in the price, as that money was spent for this place!"
Even in such a situation, he was thinking only about money. Without caring in the least about what Eric had to say, or what he had to do.
The other three were used to his stinginess, and only money thought approach, but still, they expected him to be a bit more attentive to the situation.
Even Eric was a bit surprised by this guy, but he didn't mind it much, he just looked towards him with a calm and indifferent look, as he said,
"Don't worry Owner, money is not a problem! You can include anything you want in the deal later! Now I guess no one opposes my little ga?"
Seeing that Eric was being so generous the owner imdiately continued,
"Oh, I forgot to add, that I have also paid for new tables, and chairs, amounting to 2000$!"
He had seen a perfect chance to make so money, so there was no way he would lose this chance. It was a once-in-a-lifeti miracle for him.
Eric was a bit dissatisfied with this, but he decided to tolerate it a bit, as he said,
"Like I said Owner, everything you have paid and done for this place would be returned to you double!
Now if you don't have any objections, can we start the ga?"
To the owner though, there was nothing more important than money, so how could he care about a little stupid ga.
Seeing that Eric had accepted to pay all his expenses double he was fuming with happiness, as he once again started to say,
"You should know that I have also paid for new…"
But he wasn't able to continue because Daisuke had already stuffed a bundle of yen cash on his mouth to shut it.
There was no other way to make that man shout! The owner escaped Daisukes hook with difficulty, and then taking the cash out of his mouth he scread,
"Careful with these, otherwise you will waste it!"
With that said, he took the money and put it in his pocket, perfectly normal, like nothing had ever happened, even though his breath was still rough.
Eric was stunned with this man, as he was getting more and more ideas on how to play with this. Satisfied with what he had just seen, he once again said,
"Then let us begin our ga now, and have lots of fun!"
But he was once again interrupted, as this ti was from his 'brother' Katsuto Daichi, who at least had enough brain to understand what was going on, as he said,
"What if we don't want to play the ga, Esteed Master!?"
Since nobody knew who was behind the mask, or what his position was, they tried to be the most careful and respectful as they could.
Hearing those words, Daisuke stepped forward and said in a threatening voice,
"You would dare to reject Master's kind intentions!?"
But he didn't continue longer, since Eric made a sign for him to stop, and step back, as he already expected sothing like this.
He just looked at the person in front of him with a clear and indifferent look, as he said,
"Well you might of course leave and not play, but we are playing for 2 million dollars here! You sure you want to miss this opportunity?"
The mont his words sounded, the eyes of the four at the table all sparkled and turned to star-shaped eyes.
Who would ever wish to miss such an opportunity!? 2 million dollars? Hell, they would do it even for 200k$, especially the stingy owner, who had his eyes in heart shapes.
But while the others were clearly bewildered, and seduced by the thought, Katsuto Daichi seed to be clearer, as he said,
"2 million dollars!? That's a crazy sum, but surely you aren't just giving it to one of us, right? What's the catch in here!?"
Nobody could see the satisfied smile on Eric's face right now, as far as he knew this guy, he knew that he had already bit the bait.
In fact, he was also thinking that he would be the one running with the money at the end of the day, but he clearly had his doubts.
Of course, Eric wouldn't make this look easy otherwise his doubts would raise even more, and then he wouldn't agree with his will to participate in his ga, so he said,
"Well of course not! There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Furthermore, we are playing this ga for my satisfaction, so of course, there will be so difficulties to make the ga interesting.
But the ga in and of itself is really simple and easy. Your goal will be to find my identity with the clues I give you!
You have one free clue and one free try. After that, for any extra wrong guess, you will be given a light punishnt individually, and for any extra clue you will get a group punishnt!"
The ga and the conditions clearly surprised the four of them, but there was one problem they all caught up to, as Katsuto Daichi voiced their opinions,
"What are the punishnts we receive?"
Eric had already been prepared for this question, as he said with a calm and natural voice,
"Well I still haven't truly thought about them, as I want them to be spontaneous, but I can say that I will do nothing to endanger your life!"
The four people in front of him were looking at him with weird and complex looks, as they didn't truly know what to make of his words.
Could they believe him, or his words? What kind of guarantee did they have? Besides the stingy owner, none of them wanted to risk their lives for that money, even though it was a considerable sum.
Looking at their still dubious faces, Eric said in a calm voice,
"To guarantee the fairness of the ga I will transfer 2 million $ into each of your accounts, and if you feel that you can no longer play the ga, then you can leave, and send my money back later!
What do you say!? You surely don't think that I would lose 8 million $ just to kill you 4, would you? Even though it hurts to accept it, you are not that worthy!"
His words clearly surprised the 4 once again, as it seed like Eric truly wanted just to play a ga with them. He seed like so bored Young Master who wanted to have so fun.
With these conditions and the situation as it was, they had no other choice but to accept, as they all nodded their heads in acceptance.
Satisfied with their acceptance, Eric looked at all of them once again one by one, as his eyes rested longer on the tyrannical bitch who was being too quiet unexpectedly.
The faces of the four people in front of him still carried so traces of doubt, and unwillingness, but he didn't really care.
He just nodded his head a little a bit towards Daisuke, and imdiately after their cell phones all rang at the sa ti.
The ssage was the sa for all four of them, soone had transferred 2 million dollars into their account!
Even though Eric had just said it, it was still really difficult for them to believe his words, but now seeing it with their own eyes, the number of zeroes behind 2 left them shocked.
Now the only hurdle was to solve Eric's identity and keep this money. Even though surely things wouldn't be that easy.
Even though they were excited at the sight of that money, and all the dreams they were building upon that money, they all had the feeling that they were selling their souls to the devil for those.
It was just that the dreams, and thoughts about that money made them forget all their worries, each and any one of them was building castles of sand by the shore.
None of them seed to be aware of this though, as they decided to forget all about their reservations and doubts, and start thinking about the ga at hand.
While Eric had been talking to them all this ti, his voice had kept changing according to his wishes, as he had bought a voice changing skill from the system for 150 SP points.
He felt like it was a rip-off, but he needed it for the ga he was about to play, as he started speaking,
"Well since you don't seem to have any other objections it's ti to start our little ga! Now hear clearly because this is the first clue of the ga!"
All of them, forgot about all of their thoughts and dreams at that mont as they all opened their ears to hear better, as Tianlong Yun said slowly,
"I am a male!"
