《Monillas: Human Garbage》Royal Flush
Advertisement
"A High Hand!? It's a bluff!!! We focused too much at the idea of his Raise that we didn't thought about his hand."
A fabulous bluff by Yanlei!!! In just a matter of seconds, Jose's funds of 3 Million shrinks down to 2!!! But...!!!
"Our goal is to defend this money. Even 2 Million... no, even a million will be enough to change our lives!!! We just need to defend this, we won't be aiming for more!!!"
The goal is to defend! Jose and Antonio needs to defend their castle from the Yanlei's siege. They won't be aiming for the opponent's head! They just need to defend the castle! Defend and win!!!
"Yanlei got us earlier. But if he raises to 2 Million again this round, we have to play the Royal Flush and end it there. But if we play the Royal Flush here at the second round, what about our third? He can raise again to the third round..."
The question is... either to play the Royal Flush at the second round or the third round! Predicting whether Yanlei will raise has a huge role in this logic.
For example, if their hunch is that Yanlei will Raise here then playing the Royal Flush will be the right choice. The Royal Flush is the strongest hand and It's impossible for you to lose unless you folded.
If their hunch and he actually did a Raise, then they're going to confidently Call! Then, the showdown will begin, and another victory for them! But...!!! If Yanlei didn't called a Raise here, and they played the Royal Flush, they would have won but... they don't have any reliable weapon for the 3rd Round. No more room for strategy, they will have to play the last hand they have, the Pairs!!!

"First of all, Yanlei's hand earlier is a High Hand. It's a worthless hand not even worth fighting for. But he just called a Raise and the two of us got scared! Even a simple bluff could shake us! We're cowards! But...!!! If you play the same tricks again and again, even an idiot will learn! We're going to use the One Pair! He's not going to Raise!!!"
Antonio locked that thought to his mind and whispered the things to Jose. Once again, Jose returned it with a nod. He picked the One Pairs then held it in his hand. Only 2 minutes after he decided, Yanlei also picked a hand.
"So what will be the bet, Jose?"
"Still the same, 1 Work Years..."
"Still not changing, huh? You bunch of cowards..."
Yanlei whispered those words to the both of them and Antonio suddenly felt a chill down his spine! The moment he felt this...
"Stop!!!"
He shouted in reflex! He doesn't know what's wrong but he knows that there's something wrong. A vague feeling he already felt multiple times this night!!!
"What's wrong, Antonio? We're playing here."
"Yanlei! Let us change our hand!!!"
+++++
A sudden declaration from Antonio! Antonio's declaration was so loud that the his voice echoed at the whole room. Nevertheless, the two people at the room, Yanlei and Jose, heard it loud and clear.
"Hey, hey... changing hands, aren't we? It's forbidden, you know?"
Yanlei said it in front of Antonio himself. Changing hands are not allowed if Jose already said his bet. This is common sense and all games, of course. But...!!! Antonio is trying to break the common sense! He's trying to ask the impossible! He knows that he's not going to be allowed, but still... he asks! He still asks!!!

Like someone begging at his boss. He knows that his request will not be allowed, no, It's impossible! But he still asks! Why? Because he believes that the possibility is not zero! They don't know what's going to happen in the future!!! That's why he asks!
"Changing hands is really forbidden, you know? But... I'll permit it, just this once. You could change your hand."
A miraculous turn of events!!! Yanlei actually permitted the two of them to change their hands! Truly, a miraculous event! Even Antonio himself can't believe it and said "thank you" to him. After hearing Yanlei's permission, Jose immediately whispered to Antonio:
"Antonio, what's the problem?"
"I changed my mind, It's not safe to play the One Pair! We're going to play the Royal Flush!"
If the two of them plays the Royal Flush, It's not a problem for them even if he Raises, and It's impossible for them to lose using that hand. In short, in just this round, they'll be completely safe!
Jose nodded as a sign of agreeing and took the Royal Flush card
"The bet is still the same, right
"It's the same
Confirming that, Yanlei took his hand again and smiled at them like he always do. Will this Antonio's change of path brings them joy or sorrow!? Heaven or Hell!? Death Or Resurrection!? Which is it!? Antonio! Antonio!! ANTONIO!!

Dauntless: Origins
Snow white hair, blue eyes, pale. Devil, monster, mutt, failure.This story follows one Tyr Faeron, crown prince, heir primus and mass murderer. A wrathful, angry, and lost young man that has made it his goal to hunt down the men that killed his mother - and he is on the cusp of finishing the promise he'd made before her cairn stones so many years ago. On the surface he is duplicitous, whimsical, and base of cunning - but within the depths beyond the many masks he wears, something is waiting. Waiting for an end, the end he'd come to long for, whether it be to himself or any possible threats in his vicinity. After that long labor of vengeance is completed... Nobody knows, not even him - an arrogant and otherwise solitary individual with nothing in the way of friends - only the brothers of the blackguard who follow him through life as he pursues this mission. He was born a prince, but he'd be called a disappointment - failing to manifest the great power that he was born to before being summarily discarded by his father, a 250 year old 'primus'. That word again... Men who can shatter mountains and level cities, that's what he was supposed to be. Some call them demi-gods, all Tyr sees is a poor excuse for a parent. Time had made him bitter, cruel, and arguably psychotic - seeing only enemies wherever he looks. They'd come for him, too, one day - to wipe the slate clean and make room for another - and it's his conviction to ensure that he dies while taking as many of those rats with him. This is a story about finding acceptance, growth, and understanding - from the point of view of a cold and brutal individual who wears many masks. Of someone who was born to be the greatest emperor the eastern continent has ever seen - but he failed in that. Strong, yes, but only in the context of a man - Tyr's magic is weak. His convictions are weak. He has been made a beast of instinct by loss and a constant confronting of his own impotency in the face of his father. A mythos that stretches across planes, of magic, a pantheon of cruel gods. Of someone who's dedicated his entire mind to the art of killing a man, and none to living a normal childhood or coming to understand friendship, empathy, or compassion. The first five years of his life a mystery, a hole none have ever been willing to fill, leaving him warped and twisted. His formative years gone and what must've been most of his humanity along with it. Now 17, he is on the cusp of leaving the city he'd never been permitted to leave for what might be the first time in his life. Always searching, though he won't know what for, for some time. An episodic that follows experience and symbolism rather than a never ending series of battles - where the conflict lay in constantly searching for wholeness in lieu of great villains or heroes. This is where it all started, the origin, the tale told a million times - and yet it hadn't been, 'reality' is tricky like that. The greatest lie ever told by the tongue that speaks is that any of this was real at all.
