I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel chapter 43

43 – I got rid of it

Andres is a person who has a good knowledge of poker in his own way.

In fact, luck is important in poker, but psychological warfare is more important than that.

How do I win by tricking my low hand into a high hand?

How to trick my high hand into a low hand and make it call.

In fact, of course, that’s false.

What he believed to be bluff was actually a bluff, etc.

Poker is fun because there are many complicated moves.

That’s how important it is to penetrate the other person’s psychology… … .

‘I do not know!’

Table for 5 people.

His eyes were always on Lee Ji-hoon, who was sitting expressionless.

Lee Ji-hoon, a VVIP customer of the hotel.

He was a surprisingly emotionless person.

Win, lose, take any hand.

He maintains his characteristic expressionless expression.

It makes me wonder if it might be Android.

Of course, I couldn’t read his expression.

‘What kind of human… … .’

To be honest, it is true that I was a little underestimated.

Even if you are a VVIP, you have a delicate face that looks young.

Even the strangely naive way of speaking.

Even more so, if it’s gambling, isn’t it your domain?

However, the result was that Lee Ji-hoon alone was sweeping the stakes.

Now, the expression on my face that did not doubt my own victory was frightening.

“call”

“Heh heh, Mr. Jihoon. It was a triple before. Will you get three good hands in a row? Please yield this time.”

Let the second man next to you lose the most say something to shake your mentality.

“If you’re scared, do you follow me?”

A man who responds to even common provocations with an expressionless expression.

That’s why it gets even hotter!

‘This man… is a master.’

Respond calmly to any situation or reaction.

Always keep your leeway.

That made it even more difficult to deal with.

“die.”

“Then me too.”

Others who were noticing put their cards down.

Jihoon, who had won this time as well, said in a tone that was not sorry at all and spread the defeat.

“I’m sorry I keep picking on this. It’s a shit pup that didn’t even come out with one pair.”

Coins of that size in a place where there are no good cards?

At this point, that poker face makes my chest look magnificent.

Of course, Ji-hoon is not always picked,

It wasn’t even a huge hit.

However, looking back, it is surprising that Ji-hoon became the person who made the most money before he knew it.

‘I brought a wolf cub.’

I was jealous of a young guy playing with two girls, so I was trying to tease him.

Conversely, it is a plan to give away all the coins you have collected so far.

The incident happened while Ji-hoon was picking.

“Hey, stop moving. Do you want to take off the bottom?”

Jihoon, who was still expressionlessly playing poker, grabbed the wrist of the man next to him.

So far, ‘technology’ has never been used in this table.

In a place where you don’t know what skills and characteristics the other person has, it’s like committing suicide.

Of course, the man who grabbed his wrist also shouted as if he meant something.

“Go, what nonsense is that all of a sudden!”

“Your job is a gambler. Characteristic underlayment.”

The man’s face went blank for an instant.

It is said that they were beaten by Ji-hoon, but the people here also play poker in their own way.

Just by looking at that expression, there was no human being who could not notice that Ji-hoon’s point was true.

“If you come here to have fun, you have to play fair and square. If I steal a deck of cards, I will use them.”

“Hey, do you have any proof? Do you have any proof!”

The man spits out the lines of a typical criminal.

Employees noticed the commotion and approached before they knew it.

“evidence? Of course there is. Perhaps you were thinking of raising your hand after looking at the situation in moderation. I bet my hand that the card they hid is the King of Hearts. What do you want to bet on?”

“Hey, student! Act like a gentleman!”

“Then you’re going to bet your hands too? Like a gentleman?”

The results were nothing special.

The March Rabbit searched everyone with a serious face.

Soon after, the man was dragged into the hands of the staff.

“…I can’t believe you’re doing this at the casino I run. You have a lot of guts.”

“Ahh! It was because I didn’t even have the lodging fee today! Please have mercy just once!”

Only the man’s screams spread through the casino like a agony.

I never thought I would see such a sight here, not anywhere else.

“Then shall we finish?”

When Jihoon said that, he shuffled the cards himself.

After burying a person, he still does that with his face, even though his expression changes.

After that, it was needless to say whose version it was.

****

“Jihoon.”

“Yeah?”

“I’ll give you this, so can you please play at another facility?”

I was sipping orange juice at a cocktail bar when a March rabbit approached me.

She held out something to me with trembling hands.

＜Item information＞

▶Name: Subspace Bundle

▶Type: Inventory

▶Grade: B

▶Effect: Storage of items regardless of volume or weight.

▶Description: A subspace bundle that can contain anything. If you put more than a certain amount, it won’t go in, but if you put it in a little bit, everything will go in quickly.

“Uh hmm! Well, all of this.”

I glanced at it and took it.

It’s a pretty good item to just pass by.

Anyway, I never thought they would give me this item and ask them to turn it off.

“……I guess I won a lot, right?”

“Congratulations on getting blacklisted for the first time in our casino.”

“Hmm! Hmm!”

It would not be an illusion that a little resentment was mixed in the eyes of the March Rabbit.

Somehow, I picked it up a few times, and after that, people gradually drifted away from me.

‘Well, it was really swept in.’

The coin I won is 2680 coins.

Considering the amount of coins a typical player would have, this is a huge amount.

A night in a standard room would have cost 50 coins.

Still, I don’t think it’s that serious…

“Thanks to the many customers who won, some people left saying it was not fun.”

“I’m sorry about that.”

In fact, the blacklist is a lie to some extent.

Since I am a VVIP customer, I cannot kick you out.

It means to step back in moderation at this point.

As a manager, you have to pay attention to the atmosphere of the casino itself.

It’s the first day, so there’s no problem.

It would be a big deal if the number of customers who were tired of me decreased in earnest.

“I didn’t mean to cause much trouble, though.”

“Hmm! Hmm! Well, I know you didn’t play cowardly. Please consider this as sincerity on our part.”

March Hare asked with a fresh smile.

“Anyway, how did you notice the trick earlier?”

I did not ask what kind of punishment the man who was dragged away received.

Well, as long as I can get coins, I’m not particularly curious.

“I didn’t know you were cheating.”

“Yeah? but-“

“I didn’t know, but I guessed that he was up to something.”

Before starting the game, I used ‘Eye of Truth’.

A fraudulent skill that allows you to immediately know the opponent’s job and characteristics.

As a result, I had a job as a gambler,

I just kept looking at him.

This is basically a web novel, and of course you want a provocative event.

There’s no way a person with such a job would just enjoy gambling purely.

Of course, you don’t have to tell everyone about it.

I don’t think I would believe it in the first place.

“Awesome. You have the qualities of a winner.”

The March Hare held up a glass of red liquid.

As soon as I finished raising my glass, a salty sound rang out.

“You still won a lot, so did you enjoy our casino?”

“Honestly, I don’t think gambling is for me.”

Right now, I’m trying to manage my expression somehow with ‘meta fiction’.

In just a few days, the bottom line will be revealed.

More than anything, I picked this much on the first day.

Everyone won’t want to make a big deal with me.

‘I’d rather earn money by beating zombies honestly than to suffer and risk losing for nothing.’

Of course, there is no conscience to say such a thing when the money has already been spent.

“Anyway, we have to apologize. I unintentionally let you get involved in something like that.”

“What. I know it’s not really their fault.”

I hurriedly sipped my orange juice.

This juice, which was made by grinding fresh fruits right in front of my eyes, was very sweet and refreshing.

It is a great fortune to receive such luxurious service.

“Oh, then can I ask one question instead?”

“Anything I can say.”

“What is an NPC?”

At my words, the March Rabbit smiled and put his hands together.

“It’s forbidden☆”

“… … .”

“Oh, don’t customers these days know this? Suzumi-”

“No, I know what it is.”

Even if I look like this, I am an otaku who prides myself on being sincere.

If you don’t know what that line is while wearing a bunny girl, you should stop being a fan.

writer than that. do you know this

It seems that he is quite a virtuous person.

“I’d rather not call it a substitute, but I’ll give you some other helpful information.”

“Information?”

“We regularly hold parties and events at our hotel.”

parties and events.

To be honest, I’m not interested in gatherings of celebrities.

If that were all, the March Hare wouldn’t have bothered to say anything.

“The event is held in the form of a game in which guests directly participate and compete. If you win the game, you can get a good reward.”

Competition, game, reward.

All of them are words that smell like hidden peace.

“However, the current event is competing with the forces created by the three people who live in our hotel suite.”

“Is there anything like that?”

“It wasn’t originally, but the people staying now are people with a strong tendency to be ‘unmanned’. It happened because we quarreled often.”

being unmanned

Well, this world is open to each person with different occupations and characteristics.

Due to the nature of the perishing hotel, it is not strange to say that various people gather.

If you survived until now and collected a lot of coins, you wouldn’t be an ordinary person.

“If you are thinking of taking part in the event and earning rewards, I recommend getting to know one of them. Anyone as talented as Ji-hoon would be eager to take him.”

“Hmm.”

It was something to think about a bit.

Because I don’t know who the other person is.

Well, even if it is, my side with ‘comment search’ and ‘truth eyes’ would be much more advantageous.

“Anyway, here is the information I will give you. Do you have any other questions besides that?”

“Then, are there any games with prizes other than coins in this casino?”

It was a question I asked after considering the information I got from the comment search the other day.

At my question, the March Rabbit widened its eyes.

I nod my head right away.

“there is.”

Soon after, she pulled out a clear bottle.

It was filled with white smoke.

“that’s?”

“You must have seen the fog in the first main quest, right?”

The March Hare grinned and continued with a triumphant expression.

“You don’t know, but actually the fog is-“

“It embodies the fear the opponent felt. The greater the fear, the stronger the monster appears.”

The March Hare widened his eyes in disbelief.

“Wait, how did you know that?! It’s a secret that players will never know!”

“Somehow I found out. So how was it?”

“Umm, after all, VVIP customers. You are not normal.”

In March, the hare’s ears drooped.

Somehow, I feel a little disappointed.

……Didn’t you just pretend you didn’t know?

“This smoke has a similar but different effect. It shows what the other person is afraid of. Of course, unlike the fog, it’s not real.”

Is it some kind of fear inducer or hallucinogen?

Depending on the writing, it was a very scary drug.

“We call it ‘Scarecrow’.”

“It’s plagiarism.”

Did you not hear me, or are you pretending not to hear me?

The March Hare continued.

“It’s a game that gives you a prize if you drink this smoke and hold out for 10 minutes.”

“Isn’t it too easy?”

The March Hare shook his head from side to side.

“It’s not that easy. It’s because it stimulates that person’s primal fear. Strong and weak, that’s a problem from before. So far, no one has passed this quest.”

I stared at the smoke for a moment.

At the same time, a message appeared in front of me.

[The attribute ‘Metafiction’ is activated.]

Yes, ‘metafiction’ is a god, and I am invincible.

It’s because the cheat key is no different when it comes to mental abilities.

“Then shall I try it?”

****

“Hey, I don’t know what it is, but if you stay still for 10 minutes and get a reward, it’s just free.”

Clearing the quest as if it were natural, I brought out the goods.

What I received was a product that was supposed to be the root of Mandragora.

An item that anyone who likes fantasy novels can’t help but notice.

To be honest, I don’t know where to write it.

It was received after clearing a difficult quest, so it must be worth it.

The March rabbit passed it over with weeping eyes and trembling hands.

That wasn’t my concern.

“Anyway, what do you do now?”

I was kicked out of the casino and I had nothing to do again.

Of course, there are still many places to visit.

A buffet restaurant I’ve never been to.

A destroyed library that is said to contain several books.

Hotel event venues where parties are said to be held.

But I didn’t feel like going there.

It is better to go with other children,

There were a lot of places that seemed like a waste of time.

Then, suddenly, one spot caught my eye.

‘I still have a lot of time, so let’s go to the training ground.’

Although she has become much stronger, she is still weaker than Yuri, the main character of the original.

Wouldn’t it be a little better if I swung a baseball bat?

Of course, there may be restrictions or costs to use it there too.

Well, since it’s a VVIP, it’s probably fine.
