I'm a monster in Demon King's Castle

“I knew it, things wouldn't be that simple…” Li Yue spread his hands helplessly.

All six walls moved in unison, each displaying a different number, turning the entire room into the inside of a die, totaling 21 points facing the three sons of devils.

“Of course, with the sons of devils gracing us with their presence, bringing new destinies, how could I not take some time to come back and take a look?” The 21 points spoke in a mix of three voices, addressing the three sons of devils.

The one speaking was naturally the master of the casino's authority, a major pillar of Devil King City, the Dice of Destiny.

“Of course, you have to come back and say hello, after all, we've helped you earn so much on this trip.” Li Yue didn't sense any malice, and his tone was relatively relaxed.

But in reality, Li Yue searched his own shadow and couldn't find any foolproof way to escape.

His last resort was the Devil's Route.

Due to the existence of the curse, Li Yue didn't want to return to the casino, so he didn't make a mark—once marked, he would have to return within three months, or he would summon the 8th-order Hunteral, which would be troublesome to think about.

But the appearance of the Dice of Destiny changed the situation.

Whether this dice was malicious or not, it was never wrong to leave a way out.

【Analyzing… 7%…】

Li Yue pondered for a moment, imagining a native devil born from the abyss's maw, a pure brain spirit possessed by a soul from another world, and a Spader larva summoned from a wandering universe…

“I can guess it, we all come from his world, and even directly changed his destiny.”

Just as the eight were cleaning up their bad moods, preparing to leave the casino, they suddenly discovered a passage of demonic language written in dice numbers on the opened wall.

“Who are they trying to summon? It seems to be the Skeleton King, their destinies are about to intersect…” As the master of authority, the Dice of Destiny naturally knew everything that happened outside the casino, including Fan Xiang's and Rouji's murmurings.

“Why be so suspicious, you are the same as us.” The Dice of Destiny didn't say who “us” was, “You just want to talk to them less, to make your destinies closer, or is there another motive.”

The weakness of the Dice of Destiny was obvious, Li Yue knew the chances of success were slim based on the analysis progress. If he sensed any ill intentions, he could only release all 4 points and summon an otherworldly devil for the Dice of Destiny to play with.

Li Yue remembered the conversation between the Dice of Destiny and Oogie Boogie that he had traced back in the side tent, realizing that it was now completely certain that the brain and the egg outside the room were both from the Chaos Continent.

“Well… the casino is always the winner.” Li Yue spread his hands, “Stop talking nonsense, what do you want?”

Fortunately, the casino wasn't a dream; it actually existed. When the Devil Illustrated Book popped up, Li Yue decisively left a mark.

When the Dice of Destiny spoke of that matter, its tone was surprisingly sincere.

However, the analysis had only reached 10%, far from causing a qualitative change…

Fan Xiang decided to activate the Devil's Route when the amount became zero, but before that, he had to continue chatting about this and that with the Dice of Destiny.

“Destiny will call you to meet again, and after that, you must keep a sufficient distance…” The 21 points disappeared from the eight walls, and the Dice of Destiny left as soon as it said it would.

The amount under the invitation card wasn't yet a negative seven-figure number, and Fan Xiang felt that perhaps there were enough topics to support him until he finished analyzing the Dice of Destiny.

And Li Yue inexplicably felt that perhaps his analysis action had attracted the attention of the Dice of Destiny.

【Analyzing… 9%…】

“I don't worry, we don't plan to summon the Skeleton King.” Li Yue was too lazy to think about the Dice of Destiny's riddles.

“How do you know?” The room trembled, the Dice of Destiny was laughing, “I am the dice, and also the hourglass.”

Fan Xiang felt that it might be deceiving him, but he also felt inexplicably depressed.

“Me? I'm doomed.” The Dice of Destiny's answer was very direct.

“Oops, they've paid off their debts, they can leave now.” The Dice of Destiny opened a wall, preparing to send them off.

“I can feel something.” The Dice of Destiny swayed its body, and the room swayed accordingly, “But don't worry, this intersection is very interesting, it definitely doesn't meet your expectations, but it's very reasonable…”

“The destinies of the eight of you have intertwined into a very spectacular future, I really can't imagine what it would be like if there was one more…”

“When will I die?”

Oogie Boogie had jokingly said that the summoning target of the eight Skeleton Seventh Ancestors was Lidderek in Dreamland.

Out of habit, when Fan Xiang finished analyzing a devil, he would involuntarily want to kill it.

“It's gone?” Li Yue didn't expect it to leave so decisively.

【Analyzing… 5%…】

“Summoning Luck will respond to the host's will, and will take effect every time a summoning action occurs, bringing the host a summon that meets their needs.”

This was the Dice of Destiny's parting gift.

There was some silence in the room.

Li Yue realized that the Dice of Destiny's words weren't aimed at the Devil Illustrated Book.

“Are you saying that we and the Skeleton King will have an intersection of destiny?”

“Of course, otherwise I wouldn't let you pay off the debt.” The Dice of Destiny's logic was strange—being qualified to pay off the debt was actually its extra grace.

Li Yue began to let his mind wander.

Li Yue wasn't sure if it was his own illusion, but he always felt that communicating with the Dice of Destiny was a bit like communicating with Bao'er, a bit circuitous, not as direct as Oogie Boogie.

“It's enough like this now, if we get any closer, we might become enemies.” The Dice of Destiny was very measured.

As long as he paid off the debt and didn't conflict with the casino's rules, he should be able to leave through the Devil's Route.

“And Summoning Luck can also be used up all at once, as long as your will is strong enough.” The Dice of Destiny seemed to sense Li Yue's mood, and its tone changed slightly, becoming more direct.

“Oh right, how do I use it?”

Since the Dice of Destiny was so talkative, Fan Xiang wasn't in a hurry to leave, hoping to pry out some information.

After the soul swap, seeing destiny clearly would be a miracle.

“This…” Fan Xiang originally wanted to ask about the destiny of the Library, but immediately knew that it would be pointless to ask—the Library was closely related to him, and the answer would probably be another riddle.

“Thanks.” Li Yue inadvertently revealed some skeletal habits.

“Is it trying to… summon another son of devils from another world?” The Dice of Destiny didn't mind, and pointed to Dandan and Yingying twice with the 1 point protruding.

Besides Yingying, Dandan, and the Library, of course.

The analysis progress was fixed at 9%, in line with Devil King Mentor's 1% and Bao'er's 17%.

The eight sons of devils had already developed a habit; usually, Li Yue was responsible for negotiations.

“What will happen to Oogie Boogie's destiny?”

“As expected from the rumors, the eight of you have no manners.” The eight walls rotated, and the Dice of Destiny changed its posture to chat.

“You've seen through everything? Then there's nothing bad for us to say.” Fan Xiang wasn't good at speaking in riddles, allegorical sayings, and idioms, and the Dice of Destiny guessed.

“What do you want? Is it that you want to know how to use Summoning Luck?” The 21 points rang in unison, the Dice of Destiny looked concerned.

If it wasn't enough, he could only try summoning Mentor to test his feelings for Dandan.

Could it be that after the analysis was completed, he would find that the Dice of Destiny's drop had a big surprise?
