Chapter 271 - "Changing The Future?"
Ainsley was taken aback. After all, she did think of choosing number 3, but surprisingly, Evan chose it first.
Is it a coincidence?
Ainsley didn't think so. Evan told her that they could use their special abilities…
Did this guy just read my mind or something?
Ainsley bit her lips and sighed. She had no choice but to pick another number.
"Uh...I...I cwoose numbel six…"
"Alright. Then, I'll roll the dice now." Jake immediately nodded at the two players and threw the dice to the table.
Whirl. Whirl. Whirl.
The dice rolled in the air and slowly fell to the glass table.
At the same time, Percival, who was doing nothing, suddenly had an impulse to see the future once more.
Without telling Evan, the little guy used his oracle ability to peek a few seconds into the future.
However, when Percival saw what would happen, the little fairy almost fell from Evan's pocket chest.
What?! How could this be??
The guy's face turned pale in the blink of an eye. His purple eyes flickered in white light as he mumbled in a shaky voice.
No. This is impossible. I refuse to believe this! Just...just how come the future changes in mere seconds?!
Percival was sure that he saw the dice showed number 3 at the top, so it should be the winning number. Thus, he told Evan to pick that number.
Yet when he saw the future once more, it changed. The result changed.
The winning number wasn't number 3 anymore...but it became number 6! The one that brat chose!
At that moment, Percival instantly poked his head out of Evan's chest pocket and stared at Ainsley without blinking.
Who is this girl? How come her picked number is the winning number I saw just now? It was clearly number 3...but after this girl chose number 6, the future changed!
Percival was indeed unbeatable in gambling because of his ability to see the future. But it doesn't mean the future can't be changed.
There were several cases where the future he just foresaw changed.
Usually, it would happen when someone affected the future...
Just like now.
Percival took a deep breath as he watched the dice landed on the glass table.
This brat...this brat clearly did something to the dice for it to change the future!
What Percival didn't know is that he foresaw the future when Ainsley hadn't told Evan her choice.
Actually, the baby already planned to choose number 3.
Naturally, the winning number that Percival saw was something that Ainsley altered using her luck ability.
It should have been number 3 for sure.
If only Evan didn't take that number first.
Alas, Ainsley could only choose another number, and naturally, she would use her luck ability and the result would differ as well.
Percival's divination was 100% correct. The moment the dice's surface showed up, all of them could see the number etched there.
6.
"Oh! You won, Godtoddler." Jake let out a soft gasp as he congratulated Ainsley out of reflex. Of course, he secretly peeked at Evan, whose face turned dark.
Uh, buddy. I know you have an oracle fairy that can see the future...so how come you still lose? Did this baby do something to affect the dice to follow her winning number?
It could be, but Jake didn't sense any movement from the baby. There was no visible ability affecting the dice too.
As if sensing Jake's questioning gaze, Evan snorted before waving his hand.
"Not bad. You're lucky." The middle-aged man reluctantly praised Ainsley with his face remaining as cold as ever.
When Ainsley heard the word 'lucky', she inwardly smiled wryly.
Hahaha. Of course, I'm lucky. The ability I used was the luck ability affecting my luck, okay?
"Ywou flattel me, uwncle Max!" Ainsley blushed shyly and fidgeted with her fingers, appearing to be slightly timid yet excited at the same time.
She truly looked just like your adorable daughter next door…
If only one didn't know about her freaky ability.
Finley, who already knew about Ainsley's secret, silently laughed at his dad in his heart.
Pfft. How can you use divination against luck-manipulation ability? Whatever you foresee, it will always be what Ainsley intended it to be!
Indeed, since Finley could think like that, Percival could also have the same doubts despite not knowing Ainsley's ability.
He could actually see through the baby's abilities using his ability to see the present, but the fairy thought that some things should remain a secret.
He shall respect the girl's privacy. The fairy still told Evan about his findings, though.
[What? The future you saw before changed in a few seconds?] Evan knitted his eyebrows in reflex as he listened to Percival's words in his mind.
[Hum. It was definitely number 3 before that brat made her choice, but after that, it became number 6…]
[So you mean...she has the power to affect this gamble?] Evan raised an eyebrow as he pushed Percival's head down his chest pocket.
If Ainsley had a special ability to affect the dice, then he could just see the future after the girl chose her number, right?
Percival also had the same thoughts. Usually, the pair would always wait for all the gamblers to choose their sides before the fairy saw the future.
That way, no matter who could affect the dice, the future would still be set in stone, and Evan had a chance to win.
After all, he also had other abilities that could affect a gamble. He didn't solely rely on Percival's divination.
The problem would only be whose power is more dominant toward the other gamblers.
So the question is…
Are his other abilities more dominant than Ainsley's? Or vice versa?
