"It seems that the winners for the bets have been decided. Everyone that managed to guess correctly will get paid! Someone is dropping money on items tonight! Do not worry as there will surely be more fights to come that will be part of the betting!
For now, our latest betting poll will be the prediction of who will be the winner for this event. Place your coins in the voting bin. A maximum of ten gold coins can be given as a bet. Those that are luckier than others will need to use their powers on this if you want to strike it rich!" The announcer stated as the competition continued.
The other fourteen teams did not fight against each other or meddle in the fight of the other teams as they knew that it will not serve them well. They knew that they will not get points for killing other players, so they focused their energy on finding hiding spots.
"The prediction of the winner of this event will be closed upon all of the national teams raising their flag. There will be a one-minute buffer after the last flag is raised for you to predict the winner. Once you lock in your pick, you can never pick another national team again." The announcer stated in order to give the voting rules for the audience.

"I lost all of the gold that I used to bet on the first three matches. I did not even guess one correctly. How did you guys' fare?" Marlon grumbled.
"I only predicted one like your cousin." Jade stated.
"I managed to predict two as I thought the German national team would actually win their confrontation. I guess brains is not always above brawn when forced to battle with someone of pure might that defies the odds." Adrian stated.
"Weaklings. In times like these, you need to bet on your gut instinct. You must bet like me as I managed to perfectly predict all three. A shame that you can only gamble away three gold but the next one is definitely worth as ten gold could easily become a thousand gold if you are right." Mina stated.
"What is you secret in gambling, sis?" Adrian asked in an honest and pure tone that Mina did not even detect a hint of malicious intent.
"I will tell you what the secret is, lil brother. It is about questioning yourself countless times in a span of one second. It is very effective against other people as I have tried for myself, and I never seem to lose." Mina stated as she nodded her head in a triumphant fashion.
"Oh! Tell me where you applied these masterful prediction skills of yours?" Adrian followed up in that same honest tone of voice.
"You see, I will always use this type of things whenever I am bored. I tested them on the people that I have travelled with. I even hit it big time at a casino that they almost threw me out which is why I lost about a million or so.
I do not want to get blocked from my favorite past time. It gives me such a rush to feel something exciting and new. I can actually show it to you when we go to the casino part of the hotel later." Mina stated but she suddenly felt this dark aura looming behind her.
"I see. It seems that we need to have a quick talk about your favorite past time, little missy." Adrian's mother stated as she pinched Mina's right ear and dragged her to the separate room where the comfort room is located.
"I did nothing wrong. I am just giving an example that is not even real. I mean, I am sorry?" Mina stated as she tried to wiggle herself out of the predicament but then she saw Adrian's smile that looked like a fox.
Mina looked at Adrian with the eyes that is perfectly saying the lines, 'You are dead when I get out of my punishment'. Adrian just smiled and did a cute little wave as her sister is dragged away. The reason for Adrian doing this is not that big but because of the limited-edition poster that he got being used as a tablecloth on the night before.
He even used the perks of his current predicament to cut in line just to get that poster. It meant so much to him since he actually used his own money that he earned in the game to get that poster but only to be ruined by his sister's evening coffee being spilled on it.
Adrian's friends actually knew why he did that to Mina as he one that holds petty grudges when necessary. Marlon already knew that Mina is the careless type when it comes to her surroundings unless it is hers. She cares for Adrian and his things but will sometimes be dull as not everyone could be perfect all the time.
The fact that Adrian led this type of actualization with that an innocent and angelic tone without no remorse made them tremble a bit. This guy is getting scarier by the minute as he practiced his acting skills or rather, they are scared that his acting skills are actually getting better.
"You should be careful later as she holds petty grudges like you. I mean you two are more alike than you think you are." Marlon whispered.
"If that is true then she will understand why I put her in that place. She will get an earful at most while my limited-edition poster will never be the same. You can only get that once in your lifetime as the holoswatch is registered when I got it. I can never get the same poster even if there are still in stock as they want it to be really limited to one person." Adrian stated as he faked cried a little and acted (not really believable) like he is about to cry.
"I guess he is still not that great of an actor as he cannot convey emotions unless there is something to pull from.." Adrian's friends all thought when they saw Adrian's fake cry acting.
