[charaFace C 0]

＠Iskandar
Heh, that's because I got to enjoy plenty of time on the razor's edge between success and defeat. That sort of thrill is well worth the money I lost to experience it.

Hm? Well, of course I can hold my own[sr]when it comes to games of chance.

I would never have become the King of Conquerors if it weren't for all those times I gambled my life and won.

But, you can't win them all.[sr]Especially when it comes to gambling.

And for leisure pursuits like this where the worst thing one stands to lose is money, my usual inhibitions tend to go right out the window.

？1：You really, really love entertainment, don't you?
？！

＠Iskandar
Perhaps, but I'll admit I chose to stay in the game longer than I should have. Though part of that is because my opponent did an excellent job of stringing me along.

It may get results, but it's a sneaky, underhanded way to play, if you ask me.

Well, there was a time when numerous warlords competed for power, even in our Lostbelt. We must have spent hundreds of years practicing diplomatic negotiations without taking military measures.
[k]

[charaFace B 0]
＠Qin Shi Huang
The only real difference with poker is that we merely need to read our opponents' expressions, as opposed to the state of their nations.
[k]

＠Qin Shi Huang
If we had known we could forego sending ambassadors and conducting ceremonies in favor of having all the nations' heads of state come together to try to obtain their fellow nations' coffers by pitting their wits against one another in this manner...
[k]

[charaFace B 1]

＠Qin Shi Huang
...we could have put an end to war long ago.

？！

[charaFace B 3]

And with all these heads of state competing for finances like this, we are bound to win thanks to our centuries of experience. Perhaps we should take this opportunity to rebuild our empire once we have bankrupted their nations.
