Reward?
Galen's eyes flashed with confusion.
Although Galen, born to a poor family, was smart and collected quite a lot of 'game' information, he was completely unaware of some details that required money and secrecy.
And since he had become one of the 'winners' of the preliminaries, he had rushed to the hospital anxiously and hadn't taken the time to understand more.
So, he was unclear about more of the 'game rules'.
But this appearance of Galen all the more enthralled Send 9.
He smiled and lowered his head, looking at Galen, who was sitting there, and started speaking in a playful tone.
"Don't know about rewards?"
"'Spectators' will help some 'survivors' they feel good about."
"Otherwise, where did your lighter come from earlier?"
The words of Send 9 made Galen instinctively reach into his pocket.
That's where he kept the lighter he had obtained before.
The lighter that had turned around his 'life and death' situation.
It wasn't an accident?
It was a reward!
