Pachinko Talk {4}

"Occhan!(Old man) I got the coin, lemme in!"

"O-old man… alright, go to that side to exchange your lapis coin with chips. You'll need it to play slot."

Due to the rabbit girl's innocence and the princess that was mysteriously by her side, the guard who was supposedly less than 30 years old, didn't bother the fact that he was called old man and let her in.

Exchanging all the coins she took from Moona to chips, she obtained around 500 chips which meant she could play the slot machine a hundred times!

There's no guarantee that she will lose all tries so, this means that she can play the slot machine 'at least' 100 times. If lucky, she may be able to strike it rich and hit the jackpot.

5 chips per play was the only bets they had. There's no minimum bets nor maximum bets.

"Moona! Which one should I play?"

In front of Pekora, there was an countless amount of slot machine in row. [Countless Gods Slot Machine] [Unlimited Demons Slot Machine] [Undefeated King's Slot Machine] [The Rift of Boundary's Slot Machine] and finally, also the newest slot machine: [Zerg's Extinction Slot Machine]

If Pekora had no idea what the name meant, nor Moona or author had the idea what the name of these slot machine meant except for the [Zerg's Extinction Slot Machine]. The creator obviously made this machine because of their hate against Zerg.

"Wait, Pekora-san."

Moona touched the machine, carefully analysing every single machine. One mustn't forget about Moona. She was the construction genius, no, she was construction monster.

Just a single tap, could easily make her understand about the every single details about that construction. With a single thought, she can build the blueprint about that construction inside her mind. With a single magic, she can 'view' the history about that construction although 'for obvious meaning,' she don't want to.

What she was doing right now was analysis without the magic. This meant, she can know how many tries the slot machine undergone and how many times did jackpot occurs on that machine. Easily saying, this was like: when you go to casino in dragon quest, you can see the slot machine's status.

Another example: Yakuza: Like a Dragon's PDY/PDI (Was it?)

By the way, Moona was the person who made the wall.

"Pekora-san, try this one. It has 179 tries on it and 5 jackpot so far. Compared to other machines, this one is weird!(in a good meaning)"

Moona pointed at Zerg Extinction Slot Machine

"Okay Peko~!!"

Although she has no idea to what Moona was saying, she sat down, facing the slot machine Moona pointed.

"Peko ♪ Peko ♪ how do you play this?"

The slot machine had 2 different screen on up and down.

On down: there was an icon that was separated in 3x3 line.

On up: there existed of animation about Zerg. It didn't look as disgusting because the animation was made not to disgust person. Among the bugs there, she found the Taracid which traumatised her.

"Pull this lever down and press the 3 button in front of you."

As an example or 'an approach' Moona took Pekora's hand and pulled down the lever down which caused the icons on the screen down there move.

Pressing the button in order with Pekora's hand, the icon stopped. Pistol / 7 / Grenade

Not only the chips was reduced to 495, Moona's approach was also ignored because of how 'pure' Pekora was, for now.

But the merit was Pekora now understood the rule. So she just had to order the icon in line, right?

.

.

.

"KICHIRA!?(here it come) SOMETHING IS HAPPENING!?!?"

After 40 or so tries, the animation suddenly changed making Pekora be motivated and looked toward the screen.

Pressing the button: 7

The 2nd button: 7.

This rabbit's heartbeat rate which was high at first place, suddenly accelerated. If it was a human, they would already have died.

"COME! COME! COME!"

The 3rd button: Stick.

"HAAAAAAAH!? TEMEEEEE(YOU) DON'T MESS WITH ME uwaaaa ･ﾟﾟ*(>д<)*ﾟﾟ･"

Suddenly, the hero in the animation that was slaying Zergs left and right, was melted by Arch-Taracid's acid. Ironic.

"Ha, haha… now… now…"

Moona gently patted Pekora's back and comforted her.

Pekora seriously considered. Should she use her 'eye' so she can 'cheat?'

…

Everyone here is having fun even while losing(although not some) if I win while cheating it's bad. I won't cheat and win trough sheer effort!

1st button: Grenade Launcher

2nd button: Grenade Launcher

3rd button: Grenade Launcer

"Yattaa!!(hurray) it's the 2nd best prizes!"

The 10th lose streak was finally broken and her money has became into 1,375

Now that she has a free time and the process of playing the slot machine has basically became the instinct, she talked with Moona which was quietly looking over her.

"Moona, why has no one ever tried escaping from this place?(Moon itself)"

Pekora wasn't dumb enough to ask why won't they try annihilating the Zerg. Even among the strong person/beast/demon who have chased her, during 111 years may not be able to dodge the acid spewed by Arch-Taracid. Not to mention, just a single contact may slowly kill them.

There's just no way to fight that kind of species unless they finish the spider with a single blow. Not to mention, Arch-Taracid was but a 'one of' the species of Zerg. There may even exist the stronger bugs.

One of more reasons: 'Fight' was not in Pekora's dictionary.

So why wouldn't they run? Can't they do something instead of just hiding in this wall and wait for their death?

"Didn't Pekora-san experienced it herself when she came to this planet?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Uhmm… your spaceship getting shot down…?"

"What is spaceship? Don't lie to me! There's no water in space so there's no way can ship travel in the space!"

Ah, she won 15 chips.

"What!? Then where did you come from? How did you come here? Don't tell me, you're a new speci…(muttering)"

"I came from the place called Virturan and I came here through this metho- ohh, it worked!"

The portal was opened… no that wasn't the important thing. She won another 100 chips!
