Chapter 64 - Chapter 64: Bug Discovered?

"Add attack count? What does that mean?" Saotome frowned slightly, "Are you talking about equipment in a game?"

To get into this school, Meari spent most of her time studying diligently. In her free time, she would at most read books or watch movies, having no knowledge of games.

She thought Ayanokoji Kiyotaka was talking about some game attributes.

"Exactly... game equipment."

Ayanokoji secretly rejoiced that Meari didn't understand. If she knew what he was talking about, she might take off her stockings and stuff them in his mouth.

He closed the novel, stood up, and picked up half of the advertisement paper, "Let's go, I'll help you put up the flyers."

At the entrance of the Club Building, the entrance of the Teaching Building, and various other places in the school, there were empty bulletin boards for students to use for promotions.

When the Student Council organized any activities, they would also post notices there in advance.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka and Saotome Meari acted separately, posting the promotional flyers printed by Saotome Meari on various bulletin boards.

[Literary Club casino Reopening! Maid x Three-Color Dice! New gameplay available for a limited time only, during the event period!]

[Each person can only participate three times per day, first come, first play!]

At the bottom of the flyer was the exact location of the casino.

It's worth mentioning that Saotome Meari also specifically included a two-dimensional anime image of Izayoi Sakuya on the flyer.

It's a mystery how she, who knows nothing about two-dimensional culture, found Touhou.

When Ayanokoji Kiyotaka finished posting the advertisements he had and returned to the casino, Togakushi Yukimi and Hanatemari Kazura had also returned.

Both of them, like Saotome Meari, were wearing the same maid outfits.

However, perhaps to differentiate themselves, their headpieces were black, while Saotome Meari's was white—the perfectly graceful Maid Chief, Saotome Meari.

"Let's eat something."

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka handed the bento boxes and drinks he had bought from the supermarket on the way to the others, "You probably won't have any rest time until the club activities end, so take this opportunity to replenish your energy."

Saotome Meari looked at Ayanokoji Kiyotaka in surprise, not expecting him to be so thoughtful.

"Thank you..."

None of them had eaten properly from noon until now. Togakushi Yukimi and Hanatemari Kazura did not stand on ceremony. After thanking Ayanokoji, they took the food from his hand and began eating at the gambling table.

The waiting time was long. After they had eaten, there was still about an hour left until school dismissal.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka finished the last page of "rainbow toothbrush", closed the book, and looked up with a sense of lingering enjoyment, seeing Saotome Meari sprawled on the table, looking utterly bored.

Ayanokoji put the book back on the shelf, sat opposite Saotome Meari, and said with a smile, "Meari, are you bored? Do you want me to gamble with you? Just treat me like a regular customer."

The promotional work was done, the props were in place, and there was one more important thing: employee training.

"The way you are now, you don't look like a maid at all; you look more like a lazy gatekeeper," Ayanokoji teased.

"...Me gamble with you?"

Saotome Meari propped herself up and asked in confusion, "You know, as a customer, your win rate is only four-ninths. My probability of winning is higher. Do you still want to participate in this gamble?"

"A four-ninths chance, isn't my probability of winning still quite high?"

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka picked up a white die and said with a smile, "I can even win with a one-fourth chance. This time, the possibility of winning is much greater."

As soon as Ayanokoji Kiyotaka mentioned gambling, Saotome Meari's expression became hesitant.

Only a day had passed since her crushing defeat yesterday, and her psychological trauma still hadn't faded. She subconsciously resisted gambling with Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.

Saotome Meari's gaze swept across the people in the casino, and her eyes lit up when she saw Hanatemari Kazura.

"Hanatemari, you gamble with Ayanokoji!"

She quickly pushed Hanatemari Kazura in front of Ayanokoji Kiyotaka, finding an excuse, "The casino's facade will depend on you later. Take this opportunity to gamble with Ayanokoji a few times, get familiar with it quickly, and don't show any fear!"

You're the one showing fear right now... Ayanokoji Kiyotaka rolled his eyes, giving Saotome some face by not pointing it out on the spot.

Ayanokoji suddenly suggested gambling because he thought he could use this opportunity to accumulate pity draws. It was the same no matter who he gambled with.

"Hanatemari, is that okay?" Ayanokoji Kiyotaka asked her.

"I have no problem! Ayanokoji, please guide me!" Hanatemari Kazura's body tensed as she bowed to Ayanokoji Kiyotaka.

Hanatemari Kazura's outfit seemed a size smaller than Saotome Meari's; her chest area appeared somewhat tight, and this was even more noticeable when she bowed.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka lightly coughed, "When gambling with others, don't bow."

"Okay...!" Although she didn't quite understand, Hanatemari Kazura nodded earnestly.

Hanatemari Kazura and Ayanokoji Kiyotaka began a one-man, ten-thousand-yen gamble.

The gambling method was simple: choose a die and roll it.

Including the time for both sides to hesitate and roll, a single round only took about half a minute to complete.

That's exactly what he wanted; the speed of accumulating pity draws was incredibly fast.

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka smiled, even his movements when pulling out money were incredibly swift.

For the first thirty times, the pity system functioned normally.

But to Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's surprise, at the thirty-first time, a red warning page suddenly appeared before his eyes.

[Detected that the Host is using improper means to gamble. The gacha page will temporarily stop operating and will refresh and restart in one minute...]

Before Ayanokoji Kiyotaka could react, the next moment, the pity system stopped operating, and the gacha pool page and mailbox disappeared.

Huh? What's going on? Ayanokoji Kiyotaka looked bewildered.

One minute later, the system restarted.

This time, when Ayanokoji rolled the dice, the pity system's gacha pool did not synchronize draws.

I didn't even turn it off...

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka gambled a few more times and then realized.

Did the system detect that this casino was his own, and as a gambler, even if he lost, it was just moving money from one hand to the other?

Did the system consider this to be against its settings, and therefore restricted him?

Does this mean that the system will monitor the outside world in real-time and update its algorithm?

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka couldn't help but laugh.

It felt like the thrill of finding bugs while playing a game.

But he had found a bug in the system, so shouldn't the system give him compensation after fixing it?

This is too stingy, isn't it? The stingiest game planner he'd ever seen would at least give out five ingredients when fixing a bug.

At the very least, he should be given five R-tier items, right?

Ayanokoji Kiyotaka kept complaining in his mind, and perhaps tired of his nagging, the system actually sent him a gift in his mailbox.

It was a special orange-yellow card.

[Random N-Tier Item Card: After use, the next card draw will definitely yield an N-tier item.]
