"Youīre interested? GOOD! Thatīs enough for me to start the game!"
The room around them started twisting around. It was slowly changing into something like a cardhouse made of large cards. From the roof was hanging a hourglass. Mirby looked around to find out that she was alone. She looked at Jarby, whoīs suit become white and sported various card motives. He was holding two cards in his hand with the pictures of Alucard and Lisa on them.
"Are you looking for these? Well, My bet is crucial information that you need, so I figured you have to bet something of equal value. I guess your friends here should be enough."
The vampire jumped high to the roof. He was hanging from the roof next to the hourglass.
"The rules are simple. You must survive this game of poker for 20 minutes. I will draw 5 cards every 4 minutes. Then you have to face what I draw."
Jarby showed the deck of cards he was holding. He drew five cards. The countdown started.
"Letīs see. 4 of Heart, 6 of Club, Queen of Heart, 2 of Diamond, 7 of Club....HIGH CARD!"
Jarby threw the cards down. But the cards didnīt land, instead a muscular humanoid landed in front of Mirby. He was completely white except for 5 tatoos that were placed on his face (Heart), shoulders (Club, Heart) chest (Diamond) and stomach (Club). The humanoid then proceeded to attack the girl with a barrage of punches. The punches were a bit stronger than the punch of a regular human.
"If you manage to defeat the high card, then I will imidiately draw new cards as replacement. But if you canīt defeat it before the next four minutes, then you will have to face the High card AND whatever I draw next."
(Note: The Summoned monster is invincible if you donīt hit itīs weak point. Can you figure it out?
hint: I didnīt list the drawn cards for nothing )
