"~How do eight eights add up to one thousand?~"

A simple riddle, Wait... what?!

"Do you know the answer?" She threw this question at supreme.

Supreme was silent for a while. \'I can use this to earn life times, why didn\'t I think of it from the start, I am so stupid! Way of making life times was in front of me all these while, and I couldn\'t see it. Well... not anymore.\'

"I know the answer, but ten years of life times from each of you, before I answer the riddle."

"Huh?!!"

"...?!!"

Everyone was stunned, and the hall was plunged into silence, the players were utterly dumbfounded. Staring at supreme like he had grown two heads.

"Is it too small? Should I increase the price?" Supreme asked in a confused tone.

"What did you mean by we will have to pay you life times?!" Schoolgirl wasn\'t calm anymore. And she yelled at him. Smashing her palm on the table, causing cracks to appeared on it surface.

"Calm down, kid aren\'t allowed to cause fuss in an adult meeting"

"Kid! Did you just call me a kid?!!" Schoolgirl yelled at him, as her Mana began charging in her.

"Calm down, you two!!!"

The man yelled at the two. Schoolgirl groaned, and sat back down. The players were moving their heads from supreme to schoolgirl, as the two were sitting facing each other.

"Ahem! You can\'t be serious supreme, What do you mean by we will have to give you 10 years of life times just to answer this riddle?"

\'Just? Did he just say... just?!\'

"Ok then, I won\'t interface with you guys, when you are ready wake me up." Supreme closed his eyes, and relaxed on his throne. \'This is life, I will just wait for them to crack!\'

The players\' faces got so dark that if they could strangle supreme, they will gladly do it.

"This guy is heartless!"

"What a lier, he said, he will help in the next game, and now... he is asking for a whole ten years of life times!"

"Does he think life times grows on trees!"

"I wish I could rip his mouth off"

"Asshole!"

Everyone was murmuring, the players were filled with anger, that some of them were trembling. The blue hair man smiled calmly and said. "Calm down everyone, let answer this riddle, and show this arrogant guy that we are also good with riddles."

The players nodded, and focused on the riddles.

"~How do eight eights add up to one thousand?~"

The players were silent, brains moving in overdrive. Schoolgirl was so frustrated that she just sat on her throne glaring at supreme, who was sleeping opposite her.

\'What can these fools do? If they try to attack me, I can just subdue them with my strength. AI show me my profile.\'

His profile appeared in his mind. As he viewed his new stats.

\'My strength is in a whole freaking level, I can even kill a player at LV 15 with my physical strength, but... It seems my skill isn\'t registered with AI.\'

***

[ THIRTY MINUTES LATER]

All the players were sweating, For a whole thirty minutes, they couldn\'t say a word. Even when you got the answer, but the fear of losing your life if you give the wrong answer made them think twice about answering.

"30 minutes had passed, should we ask him for help?"

"What are you saying?!"

"Yeah, we will have to pay him ten years of life times, are you ready to pay that?"

"I don\'t care, as long he answers the riddle and I survive this game, I can still earn it back"

"Yeah, we are all silver players." The player then leaned closer to her fellow player and whispered. "Do you know schoolgirl is a LV 34 player, with the silver medal 2 stars."

"What?!" The other player was shocked.

"Shhh... That man might be a LV 35 one level above her, but... she is in a higher rank than him, if the two clash, schoolgirl will easily defeat him without breaking a sweat"

"She is that powerful, we should get in her good side, she might save us" the other player said with hope, as he stared at schoolgirl. Who was busy rubbing her temple.

\'She is that strong? How interesting.\' Supreme thought, his eyes still close. With the help of his six senses, he could hear anything one mile away, and the two players were only two thrones away from him.

"Miss schoolgirl, can we ask for his help?" The player who want to curry favour asked in a low voice.

Schoolgirl raised her head with a frown after hearing the player, and looked at supreme, then at the timer. With a sighed she turned to the players. "What do you guys think? Should we accept his demand?"

The players were silent, some debating the answer, while some... calculating their life times.

After some minutes.

"Ok."

"I accept, we are with you"

"Sighed, it\'s only ten years."

"Should we wake him up?"

"Ok then." Schoolgirl stared at supreme for a moment and said to the player sitting beside him. "Wake him up"

The guy nodded and tap supreme\'s shoulder.

\'I think it\'s time.\' Supreme slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the players who were glaring at him, he gave them a small smile.

"Why are you guys staring at me like I am a monster?" Supreme asked with a tilt of his head.

"We agree to your demands, ten years of life times from each one of us." Gritting her teeth, schoolgirl said.

"Ok, but you guys should know I am doing this for every single one of us, I am not stealing or threatening you, or am I?"

\'This bastard!!!\'

That was the thought that appeared on every single players\' head.

"No, we know you are doing this for all of us, that why we accept your demand." Schoolgirl hissed.

"Good."

"Can you answer the riddle now?"

"Payment first."

Supreme stretched out his right hand on the table and said. "Come on now, I am waiting"
