Chapter 20 “Who’s the White, Who’s the Black? Part 2”

Boink was whacking his tail up and down due to the frustration of being scolded again. He couldn’t win in a physical fight against Shadow, and now he couldn’t win against her in a verbal fight either. Oh, how frustrating it must be for an otaku who is practicing the art of trolling people online to lose in a confrontation. Great ancestors of his species must be rolling in their graves if they learn of his incompetence.
“Pay attention then.” Dawn exhales and summons out the large spin wheel by projecting the picture out from the pendant.
This thing was a big spin wheel divided into multiple grids as you see on those game shows, but unlike those where it’s filled with prizes, this one had a lot of blank white spaces saying “thank you for playing”. Naturally there are also other colored spaces representing a winning prize, but as to what, it doesn’t say. Thankfully Dawn could buy anything he won before using the Order Points, otherwise it would truly be painful to roll every time he wanted something.
But sadly… he couldn’t afford any of them, not a single item.
The guy’s a poor sob, poorer than a beggar.
Tossing the bankrupt thoughts aside, Dawn gave the thing a whirl, thus drawing their heads onto the thing like gamblers watching their life savings fly off into the sky.
There’s no need to say Dawn prayed the hardest of the bunch. He did get the fruit the first time around so why wouldn’t he want something else given a chance? On top of that, this would be their team’s first lottery draw. Imagine getting nothing and coming back empty-handed? That would make him lose face!
“My luck is here!” Dawn became overjoyed after seeing the pointer landing on a color panel.
“Reward $10,000. Please choose cash or direct deposit to your bank card.”
??? $10,000 in cash?
Dawn blinked his eyes like he couldn’t wrap his head around the number. Then he started to tear up. Not because he thought the money wasn’t any good. On the contrary, he really needed this money due to how empty his pocket was. But still…. compared with the Fruit of Life, the money somehow felt cheap!
“Moneymaking like this is so fast.” Boink sighed because he got envious at how the pendant works.
“You don’t understand.” Dawn didn’t explain much but hinted at what he meant by the tone he used.
Then came the consecutive “thank you for playing” afterward. Dawn himself didn’t get mentally unstable at this turnout, but the faces of the other two were not so good. They stared at the guy like he’s some kind of dark star raining down misfortune.
“Landlord, you should wash your face or hands before you start rolling.” Boink pointed to the bathroom and said leisurely, “You’re too unlucky.”
“It’s not me that’s unlucky, it’s this spin wheel who’s a scam pit!” Dawn points to the pendant and denies being the source of the problem, “Last time I also went ten times in a row without winning anything. What can I do if this thing is so evil?”
“Why don’t you let me try it? A change of hands might turn out differently.” Shadow suddenly pointed to herself and spoke.
“CheCheChe! I want to try too! I’m going to try too!” Boink whacked his tail against the coffee table with excitement.
“Okay, I’m fine with that. There are only a few spins left anyways, you two can take control and do it yourself. So who’s up first?” He shrugs and doesn’t mind it one bit.
The guy’s waiting to see their jaws drop as he did days ago.
“Me first! Look at my white fur, I’m clearly part of the lucky white attribute.” Boink preemptively said that without any reasoning behind his confidence.
Moments later after the paw flicked the pointer, it was once again total destruction.
“Che~! I’m not convinced! I want to spin again!” Boink jumps up and down in frustration.
Meanwhile in the back, Dawn was grinning like a scum, a true asshole relishing in the misfortune of others going down the deep dark hole that he fell into.
“Move aside, it’s my turn now.” Shadow plucked the hamster up and tossed him aside.
The hand flicks the pointer like the other two prior, just that her shot was a bullseye straight into cloud nine.
Dawn and Boink got quiet, merely staring at the outcome before their eyes.
“Power Gain: Hands of the Gods.”
