Hajime and his friends went inside the hotel. The hotel was luxious according to the internet. The furnitures are gold, the decorations are made out of glass, and there is even a small water fountain in the center.

"Wow! The Paradise Hotel isn't a joke. It is the most wealthiest hotel!" Hajime beamed.

"Well. Of course it is , Hajime. My family owns this place."

The person who was sitting at the recipient desk, was Byuka Togami. People were talking about him like he was some sort of celebrity. He and his family are very wealthy.

"Well. I can tell that you are confident about yourself, Byuka." After all, you are the Ultimate Affluency." Nagito said, with his laidback attitude.

Byuka just smiled at his compliment.

'Who doesn't take their pride seriously when it comes to wealth.' He thought.

"Me and my friends would like to stay in a room for one night, please." Hajime said.

"You guys can have the room only for one condition. If you commoners have a prized possession that you owned that impressed me, then I will request it."

"What!? That's impossible! There is no such thing as one condition in the Paradise Hotel contract.!" Hajime exclaimed with frustrated.

"Too bad. That's what it is in my family's hotel. Now, choose wisely about who you are going to present yourself to me or you're not going to stay in this hotel." Byuka smirks.

The trio were upset about this. This was suppose to be simple. 1.Go to the hotel. 2.See the recipient for renting a room for the night. 3.The recipient will offer your request. Now, this situation is getting complicated.

They went outside the hotel to make sure the rich teenager doesn't hear them.

"So, how are we going to pull this one off, Hajime. I don't think it's going to be easy." Chiaki said, sadly.

"Don't worry. I'm sure there's other things he could be interested in. Heck, he might like video games." He replied, with a smile.

"She has a good point. Byuka is a very wealthy person. So, he might not be interest in any of our hobbies. That's why I'm going to present myself to him." Nagito said, confidently.

"Whoa! Nagito, I understand that you are going to do it because you live in a rich mansion. However, your mansion is ancient, not very wealthy. He isn't interested in ancient sites." He panicked.

Nagito looks at him. He wasn't surprise that Hajime was concern about him. He was nervous whenever Nagito would do something dangerous or unbelievable such as trying to encourage others to never give up in an insane way during the killing trip.

'It's over. I'm not the crazy person you guys think I am anymore.' He thought with determination.

"That's not the reason why I'm doing this. I'm doing this to use my luck to help you guys." He replied, with a stern look on his face.

"I know that you're the Ultimate Luckster, but how is your luck going to surpass him?" She asked, curiously.

"You will see about that." He answered as they enter the hotel to meet him. Byuka was stirring his tea.

"I believe I'm ready to present myself." Nagito said, with a smile.

He looks at him and smirks.

"You must be Nagito. Why I'm not surprise. I only hear a little bit about your past, but you are nothing but an outsider who has no friends. Anyhow, tell me one thing about yourself." He said, as he sips his tea.

Hajime and Chiaki were nervous about what's going to happen. They knew that he has only one shot at this. The problem was that he is relying on his luck. It's good to use your luck and all but his luck is like it's now or never.

Nagito taps his chin to think about it. Suddenly, he smiles as an idea pops into his head.

"There is something very interesting about my mansion. Did you know that my mansion has a famous statue of an ancient golden bonsai that many people admire it." He said.

Instantly, the Ultimate Affluency spits out his tea which ruins his white suit. They start to laugh at that scene. Byuka was shocked that he has the ancient golden bonsai statue.

"Impossible! There's no way a trash like you could afford something...extraordinary like that. Any rich person can afford it." He said, with his pride.

"Oh, Byuka! Would a trash like me be a skillful liar if I was determine to do your condition? Besides, my luck will definitely defeat you."

"What do you mean by that?" He questions him as he raises his eyebrow.

"Luck is something more superior than your silly little wealth. Having luck is like a fortune. Something that a person can have it. The truth is even though my parents are gone, I still have the inheritance for wealth. However, I don't care about the money. I cared about how luck was by my side even though the situations I faced were worst. You only gain wealth because of your family. Which isn't an example of having luck. Isn't it exciting? I feel so amaze that even my body couldn't handle-"

"That's enough! I think everybody got your message loud and clear for the day." Hajime laughed, nervously as he was terrified that Nagito is hugging himself when he talks about luck or hope.

Byuka's face was starting to turn red. He has never been defeated by someone who isn't wealthy.

'I hate to admit it, but Nagito's luck was able to overthrow my condition.' He thought, angrily.

"Fine. You guys win. That was impressive of you to have such a wonderful statue. So, not only you will have just a room, but you'll stay in the V.I.P room. The V.I.P is the best room ever. It has three control beds, a screen T.V, a hot tub, huge bathroom, a mini fridge, and an access to the library. So enjoy it." He sighs as he give the V.I.P key to Hajime.

Hajime and Chiaki eyes widen as they couldn't believe that Nagito was being serious about it. At first, they thought his reason would backfire but they were wrong.

It's like Nagito was a whole different person. Sure, he couldn't help it if he talks about luck or hope but the one thing that changes him was his luck. Nobody knows how it is possible for him to have the ultimate luck even though there's going to be bad luck with him. His luck was a mix of good and bad.

"Thanks, Nagito. That was very thoughtful of you." Chiaki said

"Yeah. We're sorry about doubting you. Oh man. Sometimes, I wish I have some sort of good luck like you." Hajime said as he smiles at Nagito.

Suddenly, Nagito starts to blush, lightly. He has never had someone admire his good luck before.

"W-why thank you for your consideration."

The gang found the V.I.P room and Hajime opens the door. The V.I.P room was so amazing that they were checking the room out. It was definitely the best room ever.

"Guys. I change my mind. We're staying here for two days. There is still time to catch the transportation. After we leave the hotel, we can go to the small cafe and catch our ride." Hajime said, excitedly.

"Sounds good to me. We should deserve a mini celebration. All thanks to him." She replied, happily.

"Well, why are we standing here for. Let's get this party started. That's an order from the Ultimate Luckster." He said, with optimism.

"Yeah!"

Together, they high-five each other. If it wasn't for Nagito, there wouldn't be an excitement and fun day to begin with.
