Everything belongs to me RIDDLE
“Outsmart the dealer, huh?” Alexander placed his hand on his chin, sneaking stares at the dealer beside him as he contemplated the mission he had just received from the system. How was he going to outsmart the dealer? He wondered. He watched Stanley, Conroy, Patrick, and Tim arrange their betting chips, preparing for the new game of poker they were about to play.‘While I think about that, I had better use this time to…’ Alexander thought then, in order to act like he knew how to play the game, he tried copying what they did.He reached into his duffle bag and, with both hands bowled together, brought out as many betting chips as they could contain.He dropped everything on the table in front of him.Normally, the number of chips he brought out wouldn’t have been enough when compared to the number of betting chips each of the aged men had in front of them.However, when it came to value, his was just as much as theirs, so he only needed the amount he had on his side of the table.

[Mr. Alexander Curry has successfully outsmarted the target, Mr. Philip Shey with his clever riddle.][Because the only requirement for succeeding in the mission has been met, the skill possession process shall now be initiated][Scanning all of Mr. Philip Shey’s possessed skills][fifteen skills identified][Click YES or NO if Mr. Alexander Curry would like to see the list of all fifteen skills]Alexander grunted.‘Fifteen skills are quite a lot. System, out of the fifteen skills, which ones are casino games based?’[Checking][Result: 5 unique skills]‘Hmm. Five unique skills are quite impressive, but I can only copy one.’Alexander contemplated for a short second then his next question came to mindHe asked, ‘System, what are these five unique skills?’[Skill 1: Card shuffling][Skill 2: Sleight of hand][Skill 3: Game rules memorization][Skill 4: Card counting and Memorization][Skill 5:***]Before the system could finish listing out all the unique skills that the dealer had, an i
Everything belongs to me COMMUNITY
Going clockwise and starting from Alexander, the dealer dealt two face-down cards in front of all the players, and then he returned to where he used to stand, between Alexander and Conroy.Since Alexander and Stanley had done their parts in the small and big blind bets respectively, the next to take action was Patrick, who had two options.He could fold, which means giving up, or he could keep playing. Now, to keep playing, he had two options. Either he calls, which meant matching the bet of one thousand dollars that Alexander had made and Stanley had matched, or he Raises by betting nothing less than double the amount of Stanley’s bet.That meant he had to bet nothing less than two thousand dollars and, moving forward, everyone had to either match or raise that amount.His action, however, depended on the combination of the faced-down cards he was dealt, so, Patrick covered them and checked. What he didn’t know was that no matter how much he hid what his face-down cards were, Alexande
Everything belongs to me STRAIGHT FLUSH
Staring at the aged man and knowing how well his two cards combined with the community cards, Alexander made a little comparison in his head between the three of them that remained, and he knew who was at the bottom of the totem pole.At the back of his mind, he knew that things could change once the last card that the dealer would place with the rest of the community cards was revealed, but for now, Alexander could see who the winner was going to be. He waited for Tim to make his decision and as he expected, the aged man who had it in for him refused to back down.Tim matched his bet of sixteen thousand dollars because he wanted to make sure Alexander lost, even if it meant betting recklessly.Alexander chuckled discretely, then he followed everyone to look at Conroy, waiting for what decision the man was going to make.Conroy stared at the four community cards at the center of the poker table for some seconds, then once again, he covered his two cards with his hand and checked them.

In the game of poker, the hierarchy of winning card combinations goes from high card to one pair, two pairs, Three of a Kind, Straight, Flush, Full house, Four of a kind, Straight Flush, and lastly, The Royal Flush.The higher one goes in the hierarchy of card combinations, the lesser the chances of having those card combinations.What this meant was that not only did Alexander win against Tim but he did so with a probability that was very unlikely, which brought even bigger shame to Tim’s loss. “You should have just gone with your gut feeling and resigned before the cards were revealed. Well, not that that would have mattered because the cards would have been revealed either way and everyone would have seen that your card combination ranks less than mine”, Alexander taunted, then threw his cards toward the center of the table where the community cards were.With Alexander’s two cards landing face up next to the five community cards and Tim seeing all seven cards side by side, it dawn

Alexander took all his winnings and left the table. The duffle bag couldn’t close because of how much he had won. So, he took everything back to Melvin to convert a lot of the overflowing betting chips back into cash then he returned to find more games to play and make money.He walked a little bit until he came across a roulette table which was already crowded with gamblers. He contemplated about joining the game or not because the other roulette table he saw was just as filled. There wasn’t a vacancy for any new gamblers and it didn’t look like any of the people there were willing to leave any time soon. Still, the young multimillionaire was persistent. He didn’t care if there was a vacancy for him or not. After all, there wasn’t a vacancy before he joined the poker table and won the money he did. This time wasn’t going to be any different. Alexander thought and so he approached.When he got there, the current round had just finished and some of the gamblers were on edge after
Everything belongs to me FOUL PLAY
“Place your bets, everyone, and I’ll spin the wheel to see who the winner is,” the dealer said then everyone did as told.Alexander dropped ten thousand dollars worth of betting chips on the number three spot on the table while the other gamblers picked the numbers they thought would win and placed their chips.Because this was Roulette, the gamblers could bet on as many numbers as they wanted but Alexander chose to only bet on one spot. Whereas, the other gamblers chose at least four different numbers, increasing their odds of winning.Unlike poker, there was no proven strategy to increase one’s chances of winning except for betting on as many spots as possible, but Alexander chose the one spot because, for the moment, he was testing the waters. His strategy would change after this round.As for Mr. Ferguson, the man placed his ten-dollar betting chip on the double zero spot, and like Alexander, he too only bet on one spot.After he was done betting, Mr. Ferguson snuck a glance at Al
Everything belongs to me NEW MISSION
“Foul play—?!” Alexander, who was so angry that he let his emotions get the better of him, exclaimed, but then froze when everyone around the table looked at him. Their stares made him self-conscious. “Is everything alright, young man? You startled us with your sudden outburst” Mr. Ferguson said, feigning genuine concern.Faking a smile, Alexander replied “Sorry about that. I thought I was speaking with my inner dialogue, but I accidentally blurted out without meaning to” His answer took a lot of self-control because all the young multimillionaire wanted to do at that moment was to smack the pretentious man right across the face. Mr. Ferguson grunted.“Inner dialogue? What exactly could you be thinking about at this moment? From how hard you exclaimed, it seems to me like it’s a very serious matter”, The distinguished man said.Alexander chuckled awkwardly and then replied “What else could I be thinking about if not how much I’ve lost since I started this game? I might have what s

BOAT TAIL
Alexander went back to WhatzApp where he continued chatting with Winifred until she said that she had to go offline because her teacher just walked into the class and she would talk to him later. The chat ended which was good because Alexander was starting to get tired as he wasn’t someone who liked chatting all that much. After that, Alexander looked at his phone, from front to back, and groaned. “Why haven’t I upgraded this yet?” He asked himself as he looked at the phone with disgust. How could he be using such an old model when he had hundreds of millions of dollars in his account? It was unbecoming and disgraceful. “Alright, I guess I know what to do today,” Alexander said then he dropped the phone on the bed and went to take a shower. After a couple of minutes, he came out of the bathroom fully dried, put on what he would wear for his outing then he took the phone from the bed and went out of the house. He got into his car and got ready to drive off, but first, he need

FRIEND REQUEST
If he wasn’t able to read at an incredible pace thanks to his heightened intellect, he wouldn’t have been able to finish reading the second message because she deleted it less than a second after he received it.She sent the message again some seconds later and the second sentence was gone.[If you are then it’s kind of late, don’t you think?]Alexander chuckled because the deleted message showed that the girl had eavesdropped on his conversation with her father because she shouldn’t have known that he was done with high school and was waiting to go to college.She knew this which was why she deleted it, hoping that he didn’t see the message. Unfortunately for her, he did, and she couldn’t ask if he did because it would be awkward, so she just hoped and wanted to move on.He replied [Yeah, I know] pretending like he didn’t see the message she deleted.He also messaged that he wanted to save her number so she should give him a minute. [Okay but hurry up so we can continue talking][No

DELETED MESSAGE
After eating so much food and satisfying his hunger, Alexander slept like a log and because he had nothing to do the following day, the System didn’t bother to wake him up. Within the time that he slept, his body changed a little, adapting to the ten stat points he was awarded after accomplishing his last mission, and a good portion of the food he ate was used for that which was why he wasn’t bloated after gobbling up all those many dishes.The next morning came and Alexander continued to sleep, not hearing when his alarm rang until it stopped.A couple of minutes passed and the alarm rang again but still, he wasn’t able to hear it until it stopped.Between the second time the alarm rang and the next time it would ring again— after snoozing— Alexander received a notification on his phone.It was a message, two actually, but Alexander still wasn’t able to hear them because of how deep in sleep he was until, finally, the next alarm that rang woke him up.{“Good morning, Mister Alexande

GIVE ME YOUR PHONE
Afterward, Alexander, Mr. Terrence, and Mrs. Terrence sat in the living room and talked business while Winifred was told to go to her room. The girl pretended to do that, but she sat by the stairs and listened to the entire meeting. Her reason for doing that was because she wanted to know when the meeting would be over. She knew that Alexander would leave immediately after the meeting was done and she wanted to see him before he did. A couple of minutes later and the meeting came to an end. “Since we’re done discussing everything we have to for today, I guess it’s about time I take my leave,” Alexander said as he stood up from the couch. “Of course. Please allow us to escort you to your car” Mr. Terrence said as he and his wife stood up as well.“Thank you” Alexander smiled.“Wait, Winifred hasn’t said goodbye to him yet,” Mrs. Terrence said.“What?” Mr. Terrence grimaced. “It was her idea to invite Alexander over for dinner which resulted in this wonderful meeting taking place,

VEIL
After the Possession System had transferred all of Mr. Ferguson’s properties and net worth to him, it had also replaced his name and face in all proof of ownership to Alexander’s and that includes blog articles and documentation of the matter.The Possession System had also covered a veil on everyone’s minds that made them forget that Mr. Ferguson used to be the rightful owner of everything that used to be his and replaced it with Alexander if they ever tried to look up the information.The veil also made inconsistencies in the altered proof of ownership redundant, meaning that anyone who checked the information wouldn’t think twice after seeing that the casino which had been active for longer than Alexander had been alive was somehow founded by him and one other person.In essence, whenever they saw or read anything that used to have Mr. Ferguson’s name and face as the owner of things, they would see Alexander’s which is exactly what happened when Mr. Terrence quickly reached for his

IRONIC
“It’s fine, honey. Alexander is our guest so I don’t see why we can’t break certain eating habits to accommodate him” Mr. Terrence said and his wife groaned. Again, she suspected her husband and his intention for permitting the invite she gave Alexander to come eat with them.Still, she kept quiet and just let things play out.“Well, I’d like to increase the number the estates I’ve built from the cities we’re occupying to other cities in other states as well, creating like a housing franchise. While I’m doing that, I’ve been thinking of entering into other business ventures that’ll be more profitable in the long run” Mr. Terence said and Alexander groaned. “Other business ventures, huh? Which ones do you have in mind?” Alexander asked. Mr. Terrence cleared his throat because he didn’t know how Alexander was going to take what he was about to say.“Well, I was thinking of getting into ventures like the casino business but things like that are quite challenging. You’d need someone wh

EXPANSION
“Thank you, Missus Terrence, and don’t mind if I do,” Alexander said then asked Winifred to help him with one of the bowls so he could dish more food for himself. As she gave Alexander the bowl and he started dishing for himself, Mr. Terrence asked “So, Alexander, as I was saying before I was painfully interrupted…”Mrs. Terrence rolled her eyes again while having a smile on her face.“What’s your basketball experience?” Mr. Terrence asked as Alexander gave the bowl back to Winifred to keep while asking her to give him another bowl. “I’ve never played the game before. As a matter of fact, I’ve never been on the court or held the ball before” Alexander replied and Mr. Terrence’s eyes widened.“What about high school? Didn’t your high school have basketball as one of the sports the students played? Surely you got curious about shooting at the hoop at least once or twice” Mr. Terrence said.“Yes, we did have a basketball court as well as other games but I never really got to play” Ale

DINNER TIME
Both ladies were looking very beautiful. Though Winifred was young and still growing into her looks, she was very beautiful and had an innocent look to her which would make any man’s heart melt. As for Mrs. Terrence, she was the evidence of what the young girl had to look forward to when she was her age. Her face and body were excellently crafted by her creator. “What are you guys talking about?” Mrs. Terrence asked and both Alexander and her husband looked at her and Winifred. “I was just getting to know Alexander a little better is all. Isn’t that right, Alexander?” Mr. Terrence asked and they all looked at Alexander. “That’s right. Mr. Terrence and I were just talking about how I grew up and all. Nothing too serious” Mrs. Terrence looked at her husband suspiciously for a moment. Like Alexander, she too had a feeling that there was a motive behind why he agreed to the dinner invitation but she didn’t think as far as Alexander did to realize the truth so she let it go. “Alrig

LUCKY
“I’m very observant, remember? I could smell your intentions behind asking me all those questions from a mile away” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence groaned as he furrowed his eyebrows.“My intentions?” The man of the house asked.“That’s right. I’m not a father, but if I were, especially a father to a girl child, I wouldn’t just allow a stranger of my stature and build to come into my house just because my daughter wanted to invite them. Knowing how good of a businessman you must be to have what you do, you wouldn’t make such a reckless decision which leaves me to think that the reason why you allowed my invitation to pass is because you wanted to know what type of person you new tenant is, so this is basically a business move disguised as a caring father act” Alexander said and Mr. Terrence kept quiet to listen to the rest of what the young multimillionaire was going to say. “Because it isn’t normal for a person my age to have the amount of money to rent a place here or drive the ki
