That afternoon, Shukaku showed him the ropes...
"All you have to do every day is stand at this table and handle collecting losses and paying out winnings. Someone else will teach you how this game works," Shukaku said as he led Ōtsutsuki Moon over to a gambling table.
"Got it. I'll write that down." Ōtsutsuki Moon took his first-ever—well, aside from those years working for Otsutsuki—his first proper job very seriously. He held a little notebook, jotting things down as Shukaku spoke.
"Aaaaaah!!! Why wasn't it big?! Why wasn't it big?! Why the hell was it small?! Again!!"
Just then, a heart-wrenching roar rang out through Shukaku Casino.
Shukaku was used to it, but Ōtsutsuki Moon turned to look curiously. A woman in a green coat was roaring, her bloodshot eyes fixed on the gamblers in front of her as she slammed both hands against the table.
Ōtsutsuki Moon seemed to remember this woman. Wasn't her name something like... something Cannon? Oh, right, Big Cannon. Back when Ōtsutsuki Moon had gone online, the name Big Cannon had dominated the rankings on his network for ages. It was hard not to remember her.
"As I told you during your interview, this is one of those special cases," Shukaku said slowly to Ōtsutsuki Moon without even turning around. He knew who it was just from her voice.
"Boss, I'll drag her into the alley out back, and we can teach her a lesson!" Ōtsutsuki Moon was itching to act, eager to make a good impression on his boss.
"Are you an idiot? Special people like her need special treatment. She's the one who draws customers to our casino. You absolutely cannot lay a hand on her. Now, do you know what to do in a situation like this?" Shukaku asked, speechless.
