Acht couldn't believe what he saw in the mirror at all. Beautiful big eyes that could mesmerize anyone with just a glance, a small and perfectly shown face that was as white as snow and as smooth as a polished diamond.
His beautiful and lustrous black hair messily covered his perfect forehead and created a small shade on his face.
He was aware that he was certainly good-looking even by this world's standard where beauty became more frequent because of soul force. However, his appearance far exceeded what this world considered as beautiful.
His appearance was so handsome it even made him feel scared for a moment. He felt like if he was to meet any woman in this world, she will probably fall in love with him almost instantly and that's him being humble and not trying to brag at all.
'That goddess! She made this deliberately! Dammit! I should've not cut my hair!' He clenched his teeth in frustration.
Then, he sighed inaudibly as he calmed down. There was no way he could reverse what happened so he might as well continue with it till the end.
So, with that in mind, he looked at the woman who was still frozen in her place looking at his reflection in the mirror, and said,
"Continue please."
His words seemed to wake her up from her trance as she shook her head violently and blushed. She felt herself fall into some kind of dream state the moment she saw him.
Her salon was very popular with many people; she had seen her fair share of men and women with good looks. But, this was by far her most beautiful client ever.
'How could someone be this beautiful?!' She thought to herself with a gulp.
A weird desire started forming in her heart, something that she had never felt before. It wasn't intense or overwhelming but it was still there and that made her feel weirded out.
She wanted to possess him, to make him her own. She wanted to see his face contort with pleasure as she made him go through whatever she fantasized about.
However, that desire ended after some time and she came back to the real world.
"Yes, I will continue. You have a very handsome face, young man." She complimented him honestly.
Acht didn't answer and just waited for her to finish.
So, after she styled his hair perfectly and made him look like a totally new person, he left the place as fast as he could.
The gaze that the woman kept giving him was chilling, to say the least.
'I hope this won't get me into totally different troubles.' He thought with a complicated look.
His journey in the city continued as he walked around aimlessly. He had no idea what he had to do since the time indicated it was 6:00 PM so it was still early even though the place was dark.
As he was walking, his eyes caught what seemed like a casino. It was filled to the brim with people coming in and out along with the flashy lights and flamboyant colors of the place.
It seemed to be a very renowned casino in the city but there were tens and even hundreds of it around the place so it wouldn't make Acht take a glance at it.
However, what he saw did indeed make him interested. There was a huge sign next to the name of the casino that said.
'Collect 10000 points in our different games and win an S-Class Bow!!'
The words were huge and the 'S-Class' was emphasized out of the whole sentence.
'Hmm? A Bow? Now that I recall, I need a bow as my secondary weapon. It could come in handy in some situations.' he thought.
He knew that the fact that they put that kind of prize meant that they were sure that no one would be able to reach that number of points. However, Acht was brief and so he wanted to give it a try for fun. If he fails once then he will stop.
So, he entered the place. It was like a paradise of lights built inside.
A huge hall filled with games and people filled Acht's eyes. The sound of pachinko and slot machines and the shouts of men and women around filled his ears.
It was a chaotic place indeed. Here, a person could see all kinds of human emotions in play. From sadness to happiness and everything in between, it was the primal place for a human to become what he usually is not.
After he signed himself at the reception desk, he went to a random slot machine to start playing. It seemed that all he had to do was play and points would accumulate on the app he downloaded for this event.
He put the coin inside the machine and started playing. He didn't give it much thought since he was already aware that this was a smart advertisement to gain the owners more money.
But, much to his surprise…
"Hmm? I won?" He muttered with an impressed tone.
He did indeed win from the first try and a notification appeared on his phone that he gained 200 points.
'That's amazing luck over there.' He thought.
So, he tried a second time. If he won the first time then there is no way he would win twice in a row.
But, much to his surprise again, he won.
"Huh?" A weird sound came out of his mouth.
It was indeed weird. If he won once then it might've passed as amazing luck, but twice in a row was just near impossible.
'If I won three times in a row then there is something clearly wrong.' he thought as he played the third time with a nervous look.
Again, he won easily. It wasn't even a joke at this point. He was now sure that something was weird.
It hadn't been a few minutes and he already won 600 points as if it was nothing. So, to make sure the owners won't be suspicious of him, he stood up and changed the game.
