Anaak Jahad gives out a knowing smirk. "Alright. I will add a rule." Lero Ro places a hand on Anaak's shoulder. "if Bam's team join the next round and become the final winner of the game, Anaak's green April goes to Bam, and (y/n) can punch you once. and anaak can't steak the black March from him."

"But if Bam's team loses the game, Bam's black march goes to Anaak And Anaak can punch (y/n) once. there are no other changes to the game which means team Anaak lost this round. so the next round starts without a winning team." 

"well, let's proceed with the game again."

gosh, it became such a haggle. 'how annoying.' I thought. I flattened out my shirt by pulling the bottom area and adjusted my (f/c) scarf, making sure it stays pinned around my neck and doesn't get lost in the upcoming fight.

it's going to be as rowdy as a bar in a game night. and i'm not looking forward to it.

I tested the water a little bit, but like, literally. water started forming up above the palm of my hand, forming a circle-shaped pool of water. it turns into four droplet-shaped and looking at it satisfied me. I clenched my hand tight and felt the presence of the water that was once there, now gone. with that, I felt confident and ready.

I looked and saw Khun fixing his tie once more and Rak lounging around. Bam behind them two, timidly walking towards us, head down. "I'm sorry," he said, "because of me, the three of you are in danger and I can't really do much." his grip on the black needle tightened. 

"don't worry Bam. thanks to you, that lizard got out of the chair." Khun tried to make him feel better. at least a little bit. "yeah!" I appeared beside him, draping my hand around his shoulder, pulling him closer to me. "besides, that egg-laying, good for nothing green reptile is literally good for nothing!" I gave a cheery smile which he returned with a saddened one.

"but Bam. you're pretty amazing. you kept the black March from Jahad's daughter. Frankly speaking, I am surprised." Bam looks down at the ground. I giggled jokingly and whispered to Khun, "I'm gonna bet $50 she lied and she's not actually Jahad's daughter." Khun stared at me in disbelief with an eyebrow raised, soon noticing that I'm actually serious about the bet. he sighed, pinching his nose slightly. "fine, I bet $50 that she's not lying and she's actually Jahad's daughter."

" you know... there's nothing to be amazed at." our attention shifts back to Bam as he finally starts speaking again. "I could do it because I had you three. besides, I got help from the Black March once. I don't want to betray her... that's what I learned." he smiled, looking down sadly.

Khun stayed silent for a moment, before sending sharp words towards all of us, "but it doesn't change the fact that you don't have enough power to protect the Black March, Bam. which means what you did was pure bluff." Bam's face scrunched up in agony. "listening to you, I now wonder why you did that."

"that stupid crocodile is not that useful compared to his body size, right? and the stupid water necromancer nymph loving twat can't even go full power." ouch...

I pouted at him, "Hmph!" I crossed my arm and walked closer to Bam, "but you are still amazing." he mumbled. "huh?" 

"you're not strong and you've got no skills to rely on, but you try to protect people who trust you. I could never do that..." Khun gives him a small smile. Seemingly a sad one.

"the third round of the crown game will begin shortly! the teams that want to join press the buzzer before the count is over."

"Should we go now?" Khun grins at us. "not like we have a choice." I muttered.
