I wake up to the day of the gamble against Sumeragi. This could make or break my preparation for the battle against the student council. Sure, if I lose, it won't be the end of the world. It's only three weeks of cash, and with all of the new rooms that we own, we could get it back in about two weeks, but the longer I wait to begin gambling against the student council, the more money they get from room fees. I pay the student council 10 million yet a week for the six rooms I have. All of those funds are going to be used against me.

I get up, put on my school uniform, and brush my teeth while I'm cooking breakfast again. I have to go find Mary as soon as possible to give me gambling tips. I haven't gambled in a very long time. Managing the gambling the gambling dens has taken all of my time.

I scarf down my breakfast and walk to school. I immediately see Mary and her twin tails. I run up to her and start talking about how I should bet.

After my morning classes, it's lunchtime. This is when the gamble starts, so I make my way to the second floor balcony. Sumeragi and the dealer are waiting for me.

The dealer is the same individual who dealt the game with Nihsinotouin versus Shinohara. Just seeing the face of the dealer gave chills down my spine.

"Today we will be playing Voting Rock Paper Scissors," the dealer announces. On the first floor, I see Mary cover her face in shame. This is the game she tried to cheat on and lost 10 million yen because of it. Back then, such a sum seemed like so much, but now, with the gambling dens, it's quite insignificant.

Voting Rock Paper Scissors is quite different from Rock Paper Scissors. Each spectator drops in either a rock, paper, or scissors of their choosing into a box, and each player has draw three of those cards. You can only play from those cards, so if you don't get a rock, for instance, you can't choose rock. Other than that, standard rock paper scissors rules apply, and whoever wins the round wins the bet for that round.

"Now." says the dealer, "Let Round 1 begin!"
