After waiting for almost a day, Cain finally saw the change with Anya as her aura had calmed down when she slowly opened her eyes.
The moment she opened her eyes, Cain finally heard the notifications that he had been waiting for.
[Ding! Calculating the rewards!]
[Ding! Asking the host to choose between under or over. If the correct is made, the host will receive the better rewards, which was getting the % stats of Anya's stats after she became stronger.]
When Cain saw the notifications, he was surprised to see that he needed to choose between under or over for something like this.
"System, can I decide this another way? I don't trust you since I don't know what string you might pull behind my back." Cain called out the system as he thought of a better method in his opinion.
"Tch. What is it? If your suggestion is acceptable, I'll allow it." The creature clicked its tongue as he glanced at Cain.
"Let's do a coin flip. You toss it, and I'll call it in the air. Seems fair, right?" Cain chuckled, looking at the creature hanging in the air with a smug expression.
When the little creature heard it, it became interested since it was basically the same with the 50% chance Cain would win or not.
"Fine, but don't cry if you lose." The little creature sneered and took out a silver coin with head and tail on each side.
"Wait!" Cain shouted before the little creature could toss it in the air.
"Don't toss it from high above, come in front of me and toss it face to face." Cain said as the little creature was quite above in the air and he wanted to see the coin before it was being tossed first too.
"Hmpph!" The little creature snorted before accepting Cain's request and came in front of him.
When it was hovering in front of him, it then placed the coins above its index finger and thumb that were ready to flick it.
When Cain saw the side on top was a tail, he immediately knew the side he would choose even before the coin was thrown in the air.
Because in his previous life, he had gambled a lot of times for fun with his friends by flipping coins, and he even did research about it and found something interesting.
He found in an article, stating that researchers have found that airborne coins tend to wobble off-center, which could cause them to spend more time with their initial "up" side on top. This meant that the coin was more likely to land on the same side it started on.
Not only that, he had also tested the theory and was surprised to find that although it wasn't 100% correct, the possibility of it was definitely way higher than the initial chance, which should've been 50%.
That's why he noticed that some people concealed the coin's starting position before flipping it to prevent the bias from influencing the outcome of a coin flip.
The little creature then flicked the coin and tossed it in the air. As it spun through the air, Cain shouted confidently, "Tails never fails."

When the coin was flipping in the air, the time seemed to be slowed down as Cain and the creature were tensed by the bet, thinking which side the coin would land on.
However, unfortunately for Cain, the moment the coin hit the ground and bounced back softly, the coin started to spin around instead of showing the result immediately.
'Fck… When it comes to this, I don't know the result and the chance anymore since it's rarely happened in the past.'
Cain thought, watching the slow movement of the coins as they moved really slowly in his point of view since Cain was a strong beast master, and from his POV, the coin's movement speed was basically as slow as a snail move when he was an ordinary human.
After seemingly a long time between the two of them, an unexpected accident happened as both of them watched the coin being stepped on by a slender leg, and their heartbeat immediately stopped as they hadn't expected this.
Cain and the creature instantly looked at each other before their attention shifted to Anya, who looked at Cain with an overjoyed expression.
"Anya, can you step back for a moment?" Cain asked with a tense expression.
Anya was confused with Cain's request but immediately agreed since it was Cain's request.
The moment Anya lifted her right foot, the time immediately slowed down in Cain and the little creature's perspective as they were curious about which side the coin landed on.
When both of them noticed clearly the tail was the side that was facing up, Cain immediately overjoyed as he jumped around while raising both of his hands, acting like a kid.
"Wuahahahahahaha! I won! I fucking won!" Cain jumped around for a few times before jumping onto Anya, surprising her so that she fell on the ground while Cain was on top of her.
"Thank you, Anya! I love you so much!" Cain kissed her on the cheek, making Anya blush before nodding her head and replying. "I love you too, Cain."
The little creature clicked its tongue as it felt dejected with its loss on the bet because it thought that Cain won just because an accident happened. It then snapped its small fingers before disappearing into thin air.
The moment the little creature snapped its fingers, Cain heard the notifications that he had been waiting for since the rewards would be counted after Anya had become stronger.
[Ding! You have shared an intimate moment with Anya.]
[Ding! Maxing the benefits as this is the host's first time.]
[Ding! You have received 50% of Anya's stats.]
[Ding! Anya's stats have been increased by 100%]
[Ding! The cooldown of this function is being randomized…]
[Ding! The cooldown is set to three days. In the meantime, you are not allowed to have any intimate moments with Anya. Otherwise, this function will be deactivated permanently, and both of you won't receive any corresponding rewards in the future.]
