Chapter 314: Chapter 314: The Wheel Of Fortune Favors The Bold [Part 3]

← Ch. 313 All Chapters

’So it’s not broken.’ Leone patted his chest in relief. ’It still gives out duds.’

Elias, who didn’t win a prize, glanced at Leone and asked him if this was normal.

"It is normal," Leone replied. "Actually, the Wheel of Fortune is notorious for being stingy. This is my first time seeing so many winners in a row."

"Can I get another spin?" Elias looked at Leone with a pleading gaze.

"Fine," Leone replied. "But only one more, okay?"

He only had thirty spins this time around, so he couldn’t freely hand it out as he did previously.

After receiving his permission, Elias spun the wheel once more. Though, just like his first attempt, he got a skull.

The look on his face after seeing two consecutive losses was priceless, and Leone "almost" felt bad for him.

However, now that the bad luck had been washed away, he thought that this was the perfect time to spin for himself!

"Now, it’s time for me to show you how it’s done!" Leone proudly declared before spinning the wheel.

Runa and Aria cheered at those words, hoping Leone would win.

The younger girl even shouted, "I believe in you, Leone!"

As the pointer slowed down, Leone found himself watching the symbol [???] drawing closer.

Then, it stopped at [???], making Leone do a fist pump.

However, not even a second later, the pointer moved and pointed at a skull, making the young man look at the wheel in disbelief.

"Huh?!" Leone couldn’t help but gasp after seeing this unexpected turn of events.

Elias, who was feeling down, chuckled after seeing that Leone had also gotten a dud.

Misery loved company, and this made Elias feel a little better, especially after seeing that he wasn’t the only one with bad luck.

"Oh no! Leone became broken!" Runa chuckled. "He turned into a statue!"

The children laughed and clapped, amused. Leone looked as though his muscles had turned to stone. Even Elias joined in on the clapping, fully enjoying the sight.

Though, using his authority as the chieftain, Leone spun a second time.

The same result.

He spun a third time.

He also got the same result.

"Why?!" Leone placed both hands on his head. "Do you hate me or something?"

As if trying to taunt him further, the sad trombone played a little longer in response, adding insult to injury.

Elias’ bad mood completely disappeared after that. His terrible luck was saddening, but at least someone’s luck was worse than his.

"Well, I guess today is just not our day, Leone." Elias grinned while patting the young chieftain’s shoulder. "Better luck next time."

Leone scratched his head before telling everyone to draw from the lottery box the warriors were holding.

The wheel had already been spun fifteen times, leaving only thirteen spins for the lottery. As for the remaining two, Leone had already promised them to Kael.

Each lottery box had one golden ball that would give people a chance to spin the wheel.

Those who managed to draw the golden ball were extremely happy as Leone called them to the stage one by one.

Brann’s son, Gromm, was one of the lucky few who had received a golden ball from the lottery box.

When he spun the wheel and won a Super Rare Armor, the corner of Leone’s lips twitched.

And just like that, another streak of consecutive wins happened a second time.

All thirteen winners got a prize, making Elias and Leone wonder why they were the only ones who didn’t win anything.

Eventually, it was Kael’s turn to draw.

The shaman had waited patiently for this moment.

No. He had already made preparations for this moment.

Four warriors climbed onto the stage and placed an offering of food on top of it.

Kael even started to light some incense sticks as he started to chant a praise for the gods to ask for their blessing.

The food he prepared was the finest cuts of meat that he had secretly prepared this morning before the feast started.

He was meticulous in its preparation, making sure that it was all cooked to perfection.

Once his chanting ended, Kael bowed ten times to the Wheel of Fortune before moving towards it to finally give it a spin.

"D-Does this happen often? Elias asked, completely taken by surprise.

"No." Even Leone didn’t see this coming. "This is the first time this has happened."

As the wheel started to slow down, Kael pressed his hands together in prayer.

Suddenly, it stopped at the [???] symbol.

However, something else happened.

All of a sudden, a shower of golden sparks, similar to fireworks, burst around the Wheel of Fortune. An upbeat tune that had celebratory vibes to it also began to play, making the children cheer and dance to its tune.

’I-It can’t be!’ Daedalus exclaimed. ’A Golden Buzzer!’

’A golden what?’ Leone was feeling numb after seeing these exaggerated special effects. It was as if Kael had won something super duper amazing.

And that was exactly what happened.

Kael had just hit the jackpot.

—————

[Congratulations! You have won a Mythic-Grade Storage Ring!]

[This item will be soulbound to you!]

[Congratulations! You have won five bottles of One Night Wonder!]

[Congratulations! You have won five bottles of Blessed Child Potion!]

[Congratulations! You have won five bottles of Fertility Potion!]

[Congratulations! You have won five bottles of Stud Tonic! A bottle is enough to last for an entire day!]

—————

Several golden lights flew towards Kael.

First, the Mythic-Grade Storage Ring appeared in his hand. The next second, the other prizes flew toward it, giving no time for anyone to confiscate them!

When Kael finally regained his composure, he did what any sensible man would do.

He ran!

"Stop right there!" Yuni shouted. She planned to confiscate the aphrodisiacs Kael had won as a prize.

However, the shaman had already learned his lesson in the past.

He had already prepared for this moment, sprinting up the mountain like a man with a mission.

Even Boris couldn’t help but gasp after seeing how fast Kael was running.

"Looks like the Aslan Tribe is in good hands." Elias chuckled.

The prizes that Kael won were announced loudly, making sure that everyone could hear them.

Although Elias was hearing the names of these potions for the first time, the Stud Tonic and the One Night Wonder were something he automatically understood as some kind of aphrodisiac.

Leone didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry after seeing the prizes that Kael had won from the Wheel of Fortune.

He thought he had already understood the Wheel, but it seemed that there really were some hidden mechanics that increased the chances of success.

After seeing what Kael had done, the members of the Aslan Tribe and Ravage Tribe started to plan for the next time the Wheel of Fortune would appear.

There was still one more spin remaining, so Leone decided to throw caution to the wind and spun the wheel one last time.

[Congratulations! You won 500 BP!]

The young man covered his face with both hands. Although he had won a prize, he didn’t feel happy about it.

And then, he heard it.

A laugh, which he couldn’t discern whether it came from a man or woman, reached his ears.

The laughter was coming from the Wheel of Fortune. However, Leone didn’t know if what he had heard was just a figment of his imagination.

However, he lost the chance to confirm anything when the wheel turned into particles of light, leaving only the faint traces of the laughter he had heard behind.
