Chapter 48 – 32-5. Royal Casino.
Daos smiled as he made eye contact with Allen, who was sitting far away, ignoring the booing and threats of the people who bet on him.
However, unlike the smile she shows, as Daos intended, she notices that she is going in a completely unexpected direction, and looks at Allen again and says to herself.
‘Have you noticed the trick? If it wasn’t for that, there would be no chance of me losing this thief.’
As Allen predicted, Daos’s mana has the property of changing the location of the target.
Daos did not have an innate amount of mana from birth. At most, he has enough mana to change the picture on the card.
However, due to the low mana of Daos, it was only possible to change the card picture, and if a game using a tool other than a card game came out, the win rate would obviously go down, but that was in the past.
Now the one and only, the best dealer in Royal Casino.
He was able to rise to the position of the dealer called the best in the Royal Casino by playing tricks on famous gamblers without being caught even with insignificant mana.
‘The mana I have now is only two or three times, but I hope the next game will be a card game.’
Even if he was caught cheating anyway, he didn’t care if he revealed it to everyone.
He just changed the picture on the card.
In the middle surrounded by negativity. Daos smiles leisurely and takes a bite of a biscuit and tastes it.

‘If the mana property is change, double split blackjack is also good. It’s understandable that the second edition also made an offer in my favor.’
First double split blackjack, second thief catch. I wasn’t pissed that everyone was playing in that guy’s hands.
Rather admired.
If he had accepted the second offer, he would have surely lost, and if it had not been for the mana reverberation engraved on the face-down card, if it had not been for the foolish act of drawing a card, Daos could be sure that he had lost unconditionally.
Even so, he started with the usual conversational skills to distract my attention, and even though he used magic in front of me without fear, he didn’t even detect mana, so why can’t I be interested.
‘I understand how Clos Sero feels. If there is such an interesting guy in front of him, of course he will want to have it at all costs.’
Seeing the guy smiling proudly, Allen erased from her brain the insults she had received before, and now her desire to have that guy just surged.
The golden sun of alchemy. The rice cake of powerlessness. And finally, I wanted that guy.
‘Anyway, the first and second editions are card games, so if I cheated, the mana balance would be empty… Then, based on the current amount of mana, it would be over in about one or two rounds.’
However, in order to get Daos that Allen liked, he had to win the last game.
‘Anything at the end is fine, so I hope it’s an advantageous game. Only then will the slave trio be complete.’

“Let’s decide the final game with roulette… Yo…”
‘…I can understand Geum Taeyang playing roulette because he’s a VVIP… Why does he keep looking at me anxiously…’
The person who spins the roulette to decide the final game is none other than my slave, an alchemist from the underworld, and Maros, the VVIP of the Royal Casino.
‘Well, at the point of not knowing our relationship, this would be the best way. There’s nothing wrong with meticulously detecting roulette just in case.’
“Well then!”
‘Hey, hey. Today, don’t look at me and act your way. Got it?’
Allen sends his thoughts by interfering with the spells engraved on Maros.
Hearing this, Maros also nodded his head saying he knew it…
‘Why are you looking at me and nodding, bastard… Is that a real alchemist? How can a bastard who sells drugs notice something… Ha ha…’
“Now! Let’s pay attention for a moment before we spin the roulette!”
Maros, who may have finally found himself, suddenly shouted loudly from the top of the podium and drew people’s attention.
“The last game of the Royal Casino begins, isn’t it too bland to end like this? It’s a bet! Both the guy who secretly bet and the guy who didn’t bet, this is the last game, so let’s make a big bet! The one on the left is Daos! The one on the right is Allen Come on, let’s all have a blast!”
‘Oh no, why is that bastard attracting attention…?’
Maros, who judged that the atmosphere was ripe… Suddenly brought out the secret bet openly and said that you and I were both right, holding gold coins, expensive jewelry, and certificates in his hands, saying my name and the name of Daos like a beast.. .The guys who were watching as if they knew nothing but that, started betting enthusiastically.
‘…There are a lot of crazy people. But why doesn’t my side have so many bets…’
“Oh! You bet a lot! Then I’ll bet all my money this month on a boy named Allen!”
Maros, who took out something like a blank check and bet on me while scrawling it, frowned and asked me with his eyes if I did well… I just endured it.
“Okay then all the countdowns! 10! 9! 8… 2… Days! Alright, stop betting! Now spin!!”
In an overheated atmosphere, this place is not a festival, but just like a chaos.
The money-mad spirits are raising blood vessels here and there and making animal noises.
Even the amount accumulated in front of the roulette table seems to be around a few thousand…
‘Fuck… If this happens, there might be some bastards who will retaliate later… Maros, that bastard…! Why the fuck are you raising things…!’
Apart from Allen’s feelings, Maros played the roulette vigorously.
Roulette that slowly loses its speed by bouncing the arrow located at 12 o’clock at high speed.
And roulette, which runs so slowly that it can be seen with the naked eye, is slow. It spins very slowly and then starts to stop as if it has lost its balance.
Both the people who were enthusiastic and the Maros who were playing the roulette became quiet with the sound of swallowing their breath, and then they roared with enthusiasm again.
“Tongue, older brother…”
Many people didn’t hear the sound of being kicked, but the Maros guy looked at me with an expression that he had done something and said smallly that he was a big brother.
‘Well, roulette is luck, so I can’t blame anyone. It’s more dice than…’
Dice. It is often referred to as a dice game, but the meaning of dice in the Royal Casino is quite different.
Because the person who loses is cut off in one place unconditionally, separate from the bet… This is a very disgusting rule.
If the sum of the winner’s dice is 200 and the loser’s total is 100, you must make as many dice as that number, and if the difference is 100, you must make that many dice.
Even with the bones of the defeated.
However, these days, the rules have been revised in a modern way, not as ignorant as in the past, and the number with the difference is determined by the sum of the faces of the dice, so it was possible to make 100 faces by cutting off the wrist or finger at most.
Well, in the end, it didn’t change that it was made from the bones of the defeated.
“It’s a big deal.”
“Yes. It’s a big deal.”
Daos, who had approached me before I knew it, spoke to me in a low voice, saying it was a big deal, but I said it was nothing. It was just like a casual conversation.
“It’s kind of embarrassing to bet on the dice out of so many games.”
“What’s in trouble? You just have to win, right?”
“…Your liver is big. It’s not a card game, so cheating is impossible.”
“When was the last time you cheated?”
After a short conversation, the two men sit down on chairs like people possessed by a ghost.
It was a dangerous game, but the two did not feel any tension.
Collapsing? Or have you given up?
On the blood-stained table was a set of dice brought by Maros.
Maros glanced at me cautiously, but he didn’t care.
I turn my shoulders, tap my joints, take a light deep breath, hold the dice in my hand, and hold the processed bones of someone whose name I don’t know.
‘If I lose, I’ll be like this dice…’
Despite the dangerous situation, Allen still rolls the dice with a devastated laugh.
“Let’s start, dealer.”
“Would you be uncomfortable eating in the future?”
“It’s fine to wear it until the end.”
