Free Web NovelChapter 189: Chapter 78: Card Table Contract
Entity Battle Cards, which can be put on the table, cannot be traded, not even through establishing a contract.
Therefore, such contracts can at most be used to bet on material cards, or make promises of something in exchange for something else.
The bald guy had already approached the card table.
"Hmm, you’re quite confident. Does that mean if I bet an S-class material card, you will also put in a chip of the same S-class?"
"Of course."
"Good! Then I’ll bet an E-class material card!"
"Huh~"xN
His delivery in a bold tone of such petty words prompted a round of jeers.
In their eyes, since the other party is letting them play a 30-point card surely, their odds of winning are greater. So why not place a higher bet?
"Words mean nothing, let’s establish a card player’s contract."
The three-eyed girl put out a semi-transparent blue light paper.
The paper floated vertically between the two, an empty blank space.
A card table contract is something often used among card players.
The players’ identities are used as a guarantee to fulfill the terms stated in the contract.
The contract’s enforcement is undeniable.
For example, in the present situation, when the three-eyed girl and the bald guy decided the winner, the material card serving as the chip will automatically enter the victor’s pocket.
If a promise cannot be fulfilled, then the breaching party will be sealed until the promise is kept.
The so-called seal refers to the sealing of a card player’s talents making them unusable, and they wouldn’t be able to play cards with others at the table.
Therefore, adhering to the card player’s contract is a matter of paramount importance concerning the player’s personal honor and qualifications.
"Let’s do it, I am not afraid."
Of course, the bald guy was not afraid of establishing the contract and pulled out his material card for the bet.
With the spiritual connection of the three-eyed girl, words began to appear on the contract.
When she finished inputting, she also pulled out her betting material card, pressed her personal mark on the contract, and then passed it to the bald guy for review.
"No problem, let’s start."
Having read the content of the contract, the bald guy also pressed down his personal mark.
minutes later...
[Your Majesty, your servant...has failed!]
With the projection of an official-looking old man falling to the ground and dissipating into blue light, the bald guy’s king card exited. He lost.
"My goodness, you were no help at all!"
"You were so close, one more regular attack and you would have won!"
"You had the opportunity, but you didn’t seize it!"
The surrounding players were all expressing their regret for him.
Others gave you a 30-point card and yet you still lost. You could only blame your bad luck.
On the other hand, everyone recognized the three-eyed girl’s card skill.
She’s a good player, at least better than them who don’t specialize in card playing, instead of spending all day playing odd and evil games.
"How about it, anyone else up for it?"
At this point, the three-eyed girl smiled, looking at everyone again: "The rules stay the same."
"I’ll go!"
"Let me try you!"
"Huh, I’m not as weak as that bald guy!"
Several people around raised their hands at the same time, all looking like "I’m up for the challenge".

At this point, Ree Shil stopped Daniel Smith again.
With his acute perception, he saw some issues in the last game.
Like everyone else, he recognized that the three-eyed girl was good at playing cards.
Unlike everyone else, he thought she played too well.
She was better than what others thought.
Not only did this person let a 30-point card. In the card game’s attack and defense, she also made some quite hidden and seemingly concessionary plays.
In short, he suspected that she was controlling the game.
She intentionally created a situation where the bald guy was just a little bit short of winning.
But he didn’t understand why she would do this.
If she didn’t resort to such means, she could have won more securely.
After some thought, he figured it was probably to hide her real strength.
After all, in order to guard a statue and get the reward card, one would have to win at least 7-8 games in a row.
From a strategic point of view, slowly revealing one’s strength is more advantageous than showing it all at once.
The three-eyed girl’s use of this strategy made Ree Shil unable to tell the extent of her abilities, so he wanted to observe a little longer.
Just like the previous game, the two parties signed a contract again this time.
However, this time the opponent was clearly more confident and richer. The betting chip was actually a C-class material card.
As an equivalent, the three-eyed girl also took out a C-class material card.
This game lasted even longer than the previous one. The two sides pondered frequently and ended up playing for 30 minutes.
In the end, when the three-eyed girl was left with a residual blood regular card, she revealed the opponent’s king card.
Therefore, by leveraging the advantage brought by this residual blood regular card, she won in the King Card PK.
"You are strong."
After achieving victory, the three-eyed girl gave out a relief.
"My goodness, you lost again?"
"What’s going on, she let you play a card!"
"You guys really need to work on your skills."
We have to admit, the three-eyed girl’s act worked.
Even when she put forward the same terms again, no one responded for a moment.
Ree Shil still felt something was wrong, but he couldn’t put a finger on it.
At the very least, it could be gathered that the three-eyed girl was still a mystery after several rounds. She felt quite elusive.
"Friend, how about you give it a try?"
Seeing no one respond, the three-eyed girl turned her gaze to Daniel Smith: "I noticed your eagerness in the last two rounds."
