Laughing at my self I take a look around for my next target. Two table over I could see a group playing dice, ' I have never been good at dice, and Red said hand that is usually refer to a card game. '
Suddenly, a commotion at another table gets my attention. A man suddenly stands up and tries to go for his sword, but an arrow aim at his throat stops him. The man cursing, backs away accepting his losses and runs away.
' that looks like an interesting bunch, a dwarf, an elf, and a human, where have I seen this combination before. '
So I walk up to their table, " is this seat taken"
" only if you don't have gold to loose" answer the dwarf as he counts his gold coins.
" I got gold, to lose well that is going to depend on your luck"
" Sit, now what should we play " said the human
Sam sits and looks at the three players around him and smiles. ' this three are all in it together should be fun'
" poker, easy and fast" Sam answer as he was thinking, ' well it is also the easiest game to cheat.
" poker it is " answer the Dwarf and started to give the cards aways.
Sam looks at his cards and notice a pair and a A' , since they were just starting he ask for three not caring to win or lose. It happen as though, they were allowing him to win, to get his confidence up. After, 20 minutes, Sam notice how little by little they started to win and lose just enough to chip away his earnings. ' guess it is time to start playing for real'
Using the subclass dealer, Sam was able to read his opponents faces and pull out before they could play a fast one on him. It was getting to late and the bartender gave a warning to everyone. "The Bar is closing in 10 minutes, do not complain to me it is a royal decreed so go and complain to the king"
" 10 minutes, should we go for and all or nothing game" Said the elf as he look around but ending focusing on Sam.
Sam smile and answer," sure, but are we going to play like gentlemen or like what we are?"
With a loud laughter the dwarf answer,
" Accourse, we are playing like what we are"
It was the elf turn to deal the cards, and that he did. Sam ended with a 7 hearth, 3 spades, J of hearths, Queen of diamonds and a king of hearths, looking over his cards , Sam decide to throw away the 3 and the queen hoping that his A under the hand would activate.
Sam look at the other three and he notice that they all had a smile. ' they definitely have a good game, and they will make it better by cheating'
Sam then received two cards that he ask for, looking at his two cards his heart almost stop.
Sam now had 7, J, Queen , and King of heart, And his last card was A of Diamond. ' Almost a Royal Flush, maybe I can switch the cards'
Moving the 7 to re arrange the card the A was switched under his sleeve for his new A of heart. Everything was ready to reveal the cards.
" so how should we reveal the cards, one at a time or everyone together," ask the human
" I said together to prevent any problems" answer the elf as he look around.
" sure why not " answer Sam
Everyone agreeing reveal their cards, which took everyone by surprise. from left to right the Dwarf, had five queen " I had four but another one decide to join me, who am I to reject a lady" said the Dwarf smiling.
The elf Had Five Kings, " ups"
the human had 5 A's " I guess I win, since nothing is higher than 4 A's and I happen to have one more"
Sam laught and then move on to interrupt the human, " It appear you guys have gone blind since nothing beats royal flush"
Sam then move on to set his gun on the table along with a grey bag where he started to put the gold. " well it was nice game but it is time to go, See you Eragon, Legolas , and Grimly later, and careful with the ring you might loose your mind"
They wanted to say something but we're interrupted by a group of man dress like mercenaries. " So you are the guys that cheated my nephew" said the leader.
" no sir it was him , see he is taking all of the gold we only try to earn some gold" said the elf
" ohh so it was you the cheater"
" technically we were all cheating, but I just did better than you guys, as for your nephew he had lost before I got here, so back off "
" leave the money on the table and you can keep your life"
" with that attitude you won't have many friends" answer Sam as he close the bag hook it to his side.
" kid this is my last warning leave the money or die"
" you know there are two type of people I hate the most perverts and those that steal with justify words, because they are the hardest to kill" answer Sam as he put his hand on his colt.
Red : Since you won a hand cards ' whose is the best cheater achievement unlock' Dealer has level up, your luck has increase and you have level up by three, Seen that you are in trouble do to this mission, the system has awarded you with the legendary James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok's peacemaker revolver, After it's owner was kill during a game of poker, the peacemaker has been looking for the opportunity to be drawn and have it revenge.
Sam with a smirk moves his hand under the table and pulls out his peacemaker.
" should we take this outside, since I don't want to pay for cleaning this place after" ask Sam knowing that the mercenary were on after the money, and did not care who cheated his nephew. Walking outside Sam walk 6 meter away from the mercenary and turn around. Seven mercenary stood side by side, " so under which hands do you want to die kid"
' it going to hard to kill all seven at the same time since my revolver only has six bullets. Red those my colt has enough firepower to kill any of the mercenary,' ask Sam trying to increase his chances
Red: you could buy a modified bullet, but that can only deal with the weakest level mercenary since they outlevel you by 23 levels
' ok do that Red get me the bullet' after Sam confirm the bullet was in his inventory he put the bullet in his Colt and put it back on his right holster while the peacemaker was put on his left holster. ' ready for the Mexican standoff'
" you could all come at once, but be warn I take no live prisoner"
" so be it, go"said the leader of the mercenaries as he command them to move.
Filling their bodies with energy they made their move two went for his right and another two for his left, while two went straight at him. The leader stood behind , ready to act. Two gun shot were heard and two mercenaries hit the floor. Although dual wielding is a fantasy in real life, Sam right now is in a fantasy world so his attributes applied equally to his right and left arms.
After Sam took out the weakest one and one other mercenary, he put away his Colt and only took aim with his peacemaker. Noticing a mercenary getting to close he jumps back and shoots again, and another mercenary falls. From his left a mercenary appears swinging his sword down, But Sam removes his pancho and throws it blocking the mercenary eyes. Using dead lock, Sam could see the outline of the mercenary body, using the opportunity to shoot him down. Only three remain, but they were also the hardest, since they carry Shields and kept on blocking their faces.
Sam takes out his Colt and starts to shoot regular bullets at the mercenaries trying to confuse them. It work since after they heard the hammer hitting and no sound of bullet shooting out they drop their guard down.
Using this chance, Sam shoots on of the mercenaries down successful, leaving only two. Unfortunately the other two mercenaries would not fall for the same trick twice.
The mercenaries kept moving forward with their Shields up. Sam running out of ideas, decide to whistle. His Red and white horse came running from behind one of the mercenaries. ' please work' thought Sam as he send a signal for the horse to kick one of the mercenaries.
The horse looks at the leader and then at the other mercenary. Using his back legs he mule kicks the leader into the air and using his front legs hits the other mercenary successful sending the mercenary unbalanced forward.
Two shot, broke the silenced, as Sam successful finish the other two mercenaries.
" really sucks to be low level, and I can just make a gun appear or my Henry could have put a den on those Shields."
Sam then walks up to his horse and runs his hands through his horse hair, " I name you Hidalgo, since he if one of my favorite movie horse,"
** incarnation of a legend**
Sam ' red what was that'
Red : by using a legendary name to name something you have successful called it soul to reincarnated. In this case, your horse is now a legendary horse, successful raising it stats, please don't start name things with legendary names the success rate it low and your horse could have explode.
Smiling Sam jumps on his horse riding to the guild to get a mission for tomorrow,since he wanted to level up fast.
From the top of a building a women full of armor, with white hair falling down all the way to her hips could be seen staring at Sam as he walks away. " I want him " referring to his magic, since she notice as the magic left Sam and then enter his horse making the horse strong enough to compare to her white tiger.
" My Lady, if the prince find out..." the old man behind the women was not able to finish talking when he was interrupted by the Lady.
" Fish die because of their mouth," Said the Women as she turns around stares at him and continues, " don't be a fish"
Looking at the darkness created by a tall building blocking the moonlight the women spoke," Shadow I want every information you can get me on him, and also set a spy to follow him, make sure it only reports to me, do not fail me, and one more thing don't be fish, Since what I like to do the most is fishing" finish the Women as jump on her tiger and rode away.
the shadow ripple away on the direction that sam had left. While the old man stay repeating, " don't be a fish, don't be a fish...."
