Chapter ?435 Span of Seconds
[The UBC has decided to disqualify Leo Lusher from this and the uing gambling tournaments. The amount he won today will be deducted from him, and he will be removed from the underworld ranking.]
"No! Anything but that!" Leo bellowed.
[Not only that, he will be kicked out of the underworld, and his citizenship of the underworld will be taken from him.]
"No!"
[Moreover, his gambling license has also been disparaged, and he won''t be allowed to enter any casinos, even in the outside world.]
"No way! What am I going to do then?!"
[He will also have to pay five hundred million dors as a fine.]
"I don''t have that much money!"
[From now onwards, Leo Lusher is no longer a gambler.]
Rudy had done what he had promised to do. He had destroyed Leo mentally, socially, and financially.
[Now to the following announcement!] The dealer signaled Rudy to stand beside her.
Rudy walked to the dealer, but he walked past her and took Maria with her to stand with him.
"You are my partner," he said to Maria.
[The 69th Underworld Gambling Tournaments ends here! Rudy Ross has won the grand prize of fifty million dors. And of course, the betting amount, one hundred million dors from thest match!]
"Yeah!"
"I knew he would win!"
Everyone celebrated Rudy''s victory and Leo''s demise.
''Damn, the UBC just destroyed Leo. Now I don''t feel like killing him. I thought he would just be disqualified and live the rest of his life as he has been living, but he got stripped from everything.
He got the punishment of suffering, and if I kill him, I will end his suffering. I don''t want that. He will most likely be homeless now. If not, he still has five hundred million dors to pay to UBC. I am actually curious what will happen to him now.
Keeping that aside, let''s see what my ranking is now.''
The Underworld ranking list appeared on the big screen. After Rudy won the tournament, his fame points and fan numbers increased immensely.
Since Leo was banned from the ranking, most of his fans became Rudy''s fans, and he gained even more poprity. He turned the haters into fans with his fantastic feat.
His ranking jumped from #7 to #5.
Rudy nudged Maria, who was standing beside him and then pointed his gaze at her breasts.
"Get them ready."
[The UBC has one more announcement to make,] the dealer said. [They have granted the underworld citizenship to Rudy Ross!]
"Wow… now that was not in my n…" Rudy muttered.
After that announcement, Rudy''s underworld ranking increased even more, and he became #4.
Underworld Ranking- Name- Fame Points/ Fan numbers/ Worth.
1) Hiem Lu B- 876,468,569/ 87,287,633/ 8,293,847,569
2) Kart Mashelle- 472,231,141/ 29,742,211/ 5,111,486,322
3) Raimi Dickson- 151,142,178/ 17,922,133/ 1,222,345,685
4) Rudy Ross- 699,696,969/ 61,473,600/ 216,300,000
''Hmm~ Now I want more. Leo was at #4 with four hundred million dors, but now he is kicked out. Still, the difference is too much. I will need a billion to rank up.
The underworld ranking is an average of three factors; fame, fans, and money. Fame is obviously the ''hot/trending'' topic where they discuss something rted to me in the underworldmunity. Fan numbers are… well, fan numbers. A fan can''t be another gambler''s fan, so the fan numbers are individual fans. I can''t control the first two factors… actually, I can by hacking, but I am toozy to do that.
What I can do is increase my worth. Which is decided by the amount of money I have won in gambling so far. That''s why Rusher, Ruby, or Maria''s name wasn''t on top. Most of the money the Ross Syndicate have is from old times.
I want to increase my worth, which can be done through gambling. But it''s hard to make that much money in such a short time.''
Rudy pondered for a while and tapped on the dealer''s shoulders.
"Don''t touch me," the dealer said and made the distance between them.
"Ouch." Rudy sighed and said, "I want the mic."
The dealer handed the mic to Rudy, and he used his power to increase the output volume of the speakers. He wanted the entire city to listen to what he had to say.
"Listen to me, my brothers and sisters, young and old,dies and gentlemen. I have a challenge for you all, and anyone can participate in this.
The challenge is simple: I am betting I will win the VIP underworld tournament too and enter the VVIP underworld tournament that many dreams of but can''t achieve.
However, no one knows the future. Anything can happen; I may lose in the first round of the next tournament. But I want you all to bet on me. If I make it, whatever amount you bet on me will be mine. But if I don''t make it, I will give you a hundred times more than that.
If you bet one dor on me, I will give you one hundred dors in return if I fail the challenge. If you bet one million on me, I will give you one hundred million dors. If you bet one billion on me, I will give you one hundred billion dors if I fail the challenge!"
"Do you even have that much money?" someone asked.
"I don''t. But…" Rudy pointed his gaze at Maria and said, "She does. I am a member of the Ross Syndicate, and you know better that they are the wealthiest syndicate in the underworld. This is your chance to make big money without doing anything. However, don''t me me if Iplete the challenge."
Everyone took out their phones and began betting on the event organized by Rudy. His worth increased drastically, and he ranked up.
2) Rudy Ross- 819,696,969/ 83,473,600/ 7,216,300,000
Rudy made seven billion dors in a span of a mere 3 seconds. His fame points and fan numbers also increased, and he ranked up to #2 in the entire underworld.
Suddenly, the content on the screen changed, and a live broadcast yed. It was dark, but a shadow of a person could be seen sitting on a chair.
[Rudy Ross, my name is Heim Lu B, and you have caught my attention.]
