Chapter 434 Flipping Cards || Breaking Tables
“It’s your turn now, Rudy Ross,” the dealer said calmly.
“I know.”
Rudy was once again blindfolded by the staff.
‘Hmm~ Let’s see. There are a total of fifty pairs. I only remember 42 of them, out of which Leo flipped four of them. So I now have 38 pairs to flip, but Leo and I both got one wrong, so discarding that, I only know 36 pairs. Alright, I know what to do.’
One by one, Rudy flipped the cards in pairs and got them right. The colosseum was dead silent as Rudy flipped the cards. Even the other matches in the colosseum were stopped because of how intense Rudy and Leo’s match seemed.
FLIP! FLIP!
The card flipping sound rang and echoed around.
With every correct pair, the expression on the spectators’ faces changed. And just like that, Rudy flipped thirty-five pairs right and got the thirty-sixth pair wrong on purpose.
“Whoo!”
“Let’s go!”
“That was amazing!”
“I need that kind of memory!”
Even the ones who booed earlier had started celebrating Rudy’s feat.
Rudy took off the blindfold and said, “That was so nerve-wracking.”
Of course, he was only acting to provoke Leo.
“Rudy’s turn has ended. His score in the last round was 35, and his total score is 36. Leo’s score is 4. Seven cards remain unflipped.”
“…!” Leo gritted his teeth and clenched them on the table.
‘How?! How did he get so many pairs, right?! He is cheating! I am sure of it! Could it be that he is wearing the same type of lenses as me? Yeah, that has to be it. Mine stopped working for some reason!
I have already lost this round. Even if I get all the remaining pairs right, I will still lose! Dammit! I even bet one hundred million dollars! Dammit! Dammit!’
He glared furiously at Rudy and thought, ‘I hate this guy. I am going to destroy him! But how?! If I lose this game, I will lose everything. I will fall in the Underworld ranking and never climb back!
This son of a bitch defeated me in my own game! I will never forget this humiliation! If I am going down, then I will take him down with me!’
Leo slammed his hands on the table, which caused some cards to fall down.
“What is the meaning of this, Leo Lusher?” the dealer asked. “Just because you have lost doesn’t mean you can do such inappropriate things.”
Leo pointed his finger at Rudy and yelled, “This guy is cheating!”
That was enough for the spectators to go wild. It didn’t take them time to switch their opinions on Rudy even though Leo hadn’t provided any proof.
Rudy stared dumbfounded at Leo and thought, ‘This guy…. did exactly what I expected!’
Everything was according to Rudy’s plan. If he had pointed out that Leo was cheating after the match ended, he would have been questioned as to why he didn’t tell them sooner.
So he wanted Leo to accuse him of cheating so he could use that opportunity to turn the tables once again.

The dealer glanced at Rudy and asked, “What is the meaning of this? Is he telling the truth?”
“Come on, Miss dealer, you truly don’t believe him, right?” Rudy shrugged his hands and said, “He is just being a sore Lusher… oh, I mean, sore loser.”
“You son of a bitch!” Leo yelled, “There is no way—”
Rudy was leaning on the table, but when Leo cursed him after Rebecca, he lost control of his power and ended up breaking the table into various parts.
“….” The noise was so loud that everyone present in the colosseum stopped breathing for a second.
‘You are dead, you piece of shit!’ Rudy uttered inwardly with an empty glare at Leo.
“I would appreciate it if you don’t destroy our property,” the dealer remarked. “You will be fined for that.”
“That wasn’t me.” Rudy raised his hands in the air and said, “Don’t you remember he slammed his hands on the table a minute ago? he must have cracked it. I didn’t even move a finger.”
“Putting all that aside…” the dealer turned to Leo and asked, “Do you have any proof that he is cheating?”
“I do.” Leo pointed his finger at Rudy’s face and said, “He is wearing lenses!”
‘Got you, dumbass!’ Rudy smirked. ‘Even if I had pointed out that he was cheating and no one had asked any questions, they would have still asked why and how I knew that. I already had excuses planned in case Leo hadn’t accused me, so it didn’t really matter how my plan worked.’
“Lenses?” The dealer contacted the UBCand they sent a few men and devices for the body check-up.
They arrived shortly after and checked Rudy, but nothing was caught.
“He is clear,” they said to the dealer.
“What?!” Leo exclaimed and gulped down anxiously. “How is that possible?! He must be cheating somehow!”
Leo pointed his finger at Maria and said, “Check this bitch too. This whore must be helping him out somehow!”
‘Yeah, you are dead, buddy. I might have forgiven one offense, but twice means slice. But don’t worry, you won’t be missed.’
They checked Maria too, but she was also clear.
“Nothing.”
“By the way, Miss dealer.” Rudy smiled forcefully to hide his anger and said, “Checking only me and Maria is not fair. You should check this loosher too.”
“No—!” Leo tried to run away, but he was caught by the guard. They grabbed him back on the stage and performed a check-up.
BEEP~ BEEP~ BEEP~!
“No!”
They took out Leo’s lenses and said, “He was cheating.”
“You are wrong!” Leo shouted. “These are my contact lenses!”
“Contact lenses don’t beep.”
The dealer talked with the UBC for a few seconds and grabbed the mic to announce something.
[The UBC has made their decision on what to do with Leo Lusher, Rudy Ross, and this tournament. Please listen carefully!]
The dealer announced.
