Chapter 336: Doubts and Progress

Leo had an extremely fun battle against his opponent, with the two trading wins back and forth with every new monster that they chose.

Finally, it was the Flame Lion that brought Leo the victory against the opponents horned bunny monster, helping Leo gain +5 levels.

[ System Notification – Congratulations player ‘Leo Skyshard’ for winning your monster battle.

Calculating results… ]

[ System Notification – You have wagered 1 free pass and hence received +5 levels in return for winning this battle ]

[ System Notification – Do you wish to continue battling?

The opponent has requested for a re-match, putting 20 levels as a wager.

Do you wish to accept?

Yes

No ]

Clicking ‘No’ decisively, Leo returned back to the lobby with a big smile on his face.

“Woohoo! Up to +47 levels overall baby! This has been a killer experience–” Leo muttered in joy, as he gave the bartender a big shiny smile.

“Congratulations on winning yet another event sir…. Would you perhaps like—”

“No, thanks”

Before the loli could even offer Leo another drink, Leo immediately refused her offer causing the loli to puff her cheeks out in anger.

Turning her head away from Leo, she started to clean her bar glasses with aggravated anger which was evident with her rough actions, however, Leo did not care for it.

“I wonder how others are performing…. Are they performing better than me? Are they performing worse?

Will someone hit a 100x reward and walk out of this event 500 levels stronger?

If that happens, my identity as ‘TheBoss’ will be exposed immediately,” Leo mumbled as while he was enjoying the event, the realization that others were likely to gain just as many levels as he did, if not more dampened his excitement.

Once this thought entered his head, Leo began to fear for his future, as he wondered if he should attempt more risky games with a higher overall payout, or stick to the three games he had already played and explored.

**********

( Meanwhile Luke )

In his three free-pass games, Luke managed to gain a total of +28 levels, which made him feel extremely content.

Not being much of a gambler, Luke was happy to make a steady gain of around 1.8x per game, as he did not wish to gain 500 levels from this event and had set his aim as gaining 50 levels by the end.

“2 hours have passed already, which means there are only 4 more hours of this event left.

I don’t need to hurry to reach my goal, I can take my time and enjoy the process and I’ll still reach my goal of gaining 50 levels…” Luke muttered to himself, as he ordered a non-alcoholic beverage from the bar and sat there sipping it.

“Mmm…. This taste it’s exquisite. Thank-you for the great service–” Luke said complementing the Loli bartender as the little girl giggled and slid a token to Luke in return.

“Here kind sir…. May this bring good fortune to you–” she said, as Luke took the token that the little girl offered with a smile on his face.

[ System Notification – You have received 1x Free Pass Token.

Note – You cannot store this item in the inventory, it is a time limited item that must be used within the event.

Note – The Free Pass Token cannot be directly exchanged for levels and must be used as a wager in one of the games. ]

“Ehhh???” Luke questioned, as he did not expect to get a free pass token just like that, however, apparently the little Loli bartender seemed to have a whole stock of it.

“Thank You so much little one–” Luke said, flashing her the kindest smile as he continued to sit there enjoying his drink while he browsed what new game to play with this additional token that he had just unexpectedly received.

( Meanwhile Cervantez )

In the first two hours of the event, Cervantez managed to gain a total of +25 levels after having expended all three of his free pass tokens.

“All the rankers in my past life managed to gain somewhere between 50 to 75 levels in this event at best.

While those who were too greedy lost everything.

At the pace I’m going, I’m perfectly poised to reach the 75 level upper threshold, so there is no need to hurry or be greedy–” Cervantez said, stroking his chin as he too felt content with his leveling pace.

In his past life, he had seen quite a lot of instances of top rankers dropping to level 0 because of their gambling addiction during this event and had hence warned Luke before the event to steer clear of gambling games and to play responsibly.

In his past life, the rankers that saw the biggest amount of level gains only managed to reach +75 levels and hence Cervantez presumed that the same would hold true in this life too.

However, little did he know, that because of his advice to Leo, to not gamble away his winnings, the situation this time around was much different to his past life, with Leo being on track to gain much more levels than what he did previously where he recklessly gambled some of his winnings away.

*********

( Meanwhile Spicy Ramen )

After nearly escaping dropping to level 0 once, within the next one hour, Spicy Ramen dropped down to having just 25 levels, as he gambled all of his gains away like a degenerate.

With the road to recovery now looking long and unlikely, Spicy Ramen started to cry and swear to roulette gods that if he regained just his original level of 137 he would not longer indulge in gambling and end the gaming for the night as he began to cautiously gamble with 5 levels at a time, hoping to rebuild his lost level base at a steady pace of 5 levels at a time.

Unfortunately for him, however, he lost his very first bet of 5 levels, further dropping his remaining level pool from 25 to just 20 levels.
