Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death - Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death chapter 100

Having gained courage, Adrine grabbed the card given to her again. In the evening after the second game, Adrine and the opponent were in a 1:1 heads-up situation.

She hinted lightly at the words.

“You must have a really good hand?”

“Sure.”

“Well. Then I fold.”

“…Huh. She’s a trustworthy girl.”

When Adrinne gave up the game, the opponent chewed their appetites. Anyway, after winning the game, he opened his hand.

“You opened the card. Two, two, two. Nut.”

Adrine waited for the next edition and asked the question again.

“Aren’t you here out of balance?”

“Hey, do you have something to rob the house?”

“I want to check. Double bet.”

“… under. Fold because you’re a pretty girl.”

As the cards turned, Adrine’s chips began to creep up. After about 10 minutes, she became the chip leader at table B.

“miss… ”

“yes?”

“Is this really your first time?”

“Isn’t it beginner’s luck?”

In the big pot, those who ran out of chips to Adrinne left one by one. When the game started with 9 players and 5 players remained at the table, the man who ran out of chips stood up and said,

“Pretty lady, is this really your first time?”

“… yes.”

“under… Fucked by a newbie girl.”

“Giggle. I’m out of chips, don’t give a damn to a girl the size of my daughter, go home and touch your wife’s milk.”

The crude exchange of words spread a small laugh across the table. Adrine, her cheeks flushed slightly, breathed in and said.

“This is a big deal… .”

“… yes?”

Hoan, who was standing behind her, leaned out slightly to examine Adrine’s expression. Anxiety crept over her flushed cheeks.

“Isn’t it going well?”

“It is, but… .”

On the way to this place, Hoan also heard an explanation about the rules of ‘Empire’. But he didn’t understand the rules at all, let alone the strategy of this card game. Still, he had eyes, and he could tell at least that Adrinne was winning by watching her chips pile up.

“What are you worried about? … Or, do vulgar words bother you?”

“No, not necessarily.”

Audrine’s mumbling answer made Hoan nervous. It was strange. The game was obviously going well.

‘What are you worried about… ah! Perhaps?’

The next moment, Hoan almost drew his sword. In this place where there are a lot of excited people, if it really happened, there might be a fight or a fight with a worthless person.

But, he thought, there could only be one reason she reacted this way.

“bump… Does anyone know?”

The Guardian Knight interpreted Adrine’s silence as positive. Even then, he was reminded of his own duty. Even if it wasn’t, they were the target of assassination a while ago. Joan thought of a directory that could pose a danger to Adrin, but among those sitting at the table, he couldn’t find anyone who overlapped.

Then she said with a sigh of ‘po ho’.

“this… It’s so much fun… .”

Joan was shocked by Adrine’s words.

“… gambling … Is this what you mean?”

And even more than that, Adrin, who spat out the words, was more shocked. Because he couldn’t believe what he said.

“her… her… .”

Hoan seemed to be speechless, but if he looked closely, he could find the reason.

A vivid atmosphere that cannot be experienced in the imperial palace.

A strange sense of immorality to gamble with money for the first time in my life.

Every time the card is opened, joy, anger, and sadness pass quickly between people.

If you can influence people’s joys and sorrows, card games can also become dramas.

She was thrilled by the watchful eyes of the people who were wary and curious about her, and thrilled with her own emotions as she waited for the dealer’s hand.

However, the dealer did not redistribute the hand he had collected. She shouted as she pulled the button mark that had circled the table one space at a time in front of her.

“B table, deal button 3 cycles! It’s break time!”

“Eh? Has it already happened?”

“Hey, time flies quickly because the lady is sitting there… .”

It was said that if the deal button rotated 3 times, approximately 30 games were played. how much time has passed Since the gambling hall was located underground, there were no windows to look at the clock tower. It was only then that Adrin realized that she was a little hungry.

And she wasn’t the only one feeling hungry. Drinking is allowed during break time. The man sitting across from Adrine raised his hand and shouted.

“Hey! Here’s a beer!”

“I’ll have grape juice.”

“Me too… Hey, if the pretty girl over there is thirsty, order something to drink. Here, drinks are free during break time.”

Adrine was also a bit thirsty at the time. But she said something contrary to her physiological needs.

“ah… I’m fine.”

“… why? It’s really free.”

“yes. My throat is not dry. Thank you, but it’s okay.”

Had it not been for John’s earlier advice, I would not have declined. On the way here, it wasn’t just advice on playing ‘Empire’ that John explained.

‘Princess. Never drink the drinks they give you.”

‘… A drink?’

‘yes. Not even water.’

‘why?’

‘Because there are cases in which medicine is given.’

Certainly, when Adrin refused, there was obviously a face of regret. Adrine examined the face of the old woman seated to her left.

Adrine also knows because she has tried disguises. Under the band around her head was hair of a different color.

it’s a wig

If Adrin hadn’t discovered her aptitude through the blood plate method on her first day at the academy, she would have been able to recognize her with certainty.

She had been to the academy before.

At the request of the Academy Dean.

One of the people who additionally looked at the aptitude of students whose aptitude was not determined by the blood plate method.

It was the wizard Pirallo.

A woman who was obsessed with gambling in the first place.

Then, a woman who met her husband, Noguchi, at a gambling house here and became a magician who handles cards.

The reason she had to disguise was simple. It is because of the unwritten rule of the gambling hall that ‘the entry of wizards is prohibited’. Of course, if the wizards acted forcefully, they could destroy both the gambling house and the unwritten rules at the same time, but she couldn’t.

It was not a question of morality.

‘If I do that, my playground will disappear.’

If word spread that he was a wizard, no one would want to play games with him.

And she had been closely watching Adrinne’s play the entire time she sat at the table. Not because of her beauty, but because of her extraordinary win rate in every match.

That yellow-haired girl not only caught her own bluffs 3 times, but also beats other people in battles.

At some point, Pirallo has switched to defensive play, keeping his chips skillful. This is the secret to not running out of chips. And in the meantime, that blonde-haired chip had grown at a terrifying rate. Now that the deal button has only turned 3 rounds, there are already 4 players who have bounced out.

‘Is that all luck?’

And just.

The stubborn refusal to drink made Pirallo convinced. If you’re really new, you don’t know most about the dangers of casinos.

There is one main reason for feigning kindness in gambling establishments. They trick their customers into drinking sleeping pills or drinks laced with confessions.

‘That girl is by no means a rookie.’

When my thoughts reached that point, the pale expression that the yellow hair was consistently putting on seemed like a seasoned performance.

‘Are you sure. If you’re not a professional gambler, you’re a cheater.’

And he was too young to be considered a professional gambler.

After comparing Adrine’s chips with his own, Pirallo completely abandoned the idea of making money by winning chips with skill. To be honest, my gambling skills weren’t that good. But she found another way.

Another unwritten rule of gambling establishments is their own way of punishing cheaters. And that condemnation is given as a reward to those who see through the scheme of fraud.

‘If I can find a way to cheat, all the money he has is mine.’

As Piralo glanced at Adrine’s sleeve or pocket, the man who ordered the beer raised his voice.

“Hey, what are you doing! the brakes are over No beer here… ? What kind of barley do you grow? .”

And it wasn’t the cold beer on the table that answered the man’s complaints.

The sound of pouring water.

Then there was the sound of a beer cup breaking.

People’s gazes poured into one place. D Center seat of the table.

There was a boy I knew both Adrinne and Piralo.

The betting manager’s angry voice rang first.

“Who is it!”

“sorry! sorry!”

“Asshole! It’s you again?!”

The reason for the manager’s shout was also to calm the customer’s anger in advance by shouting first. However, superstitions rooted in the Empire’s gambling halls made his intentions futile.

“Unlucky to break the glass during the game? Refund!”

“I don’t play either! Give me the money to play!”

“Now I’m going to stick to the run. Fold this plate!”

“Nimi. Stop talking bullshit! I can’t give up on this game!”

Dissatisfaction poured out over Jung-gu heating from a place other than the table. Not all of them believe in the myth that if glass breaks while gambling, the curse wears off. The buy-in fee, which corresponds to the participation fee, is a relatively high amount for ordinary people, and due to the nature of gambling, chips are concentrated in one place. This meant that most people would lose money, and the glass-shattering commotion only became the fuse.

one of the guests shouted.

“That bastard. Aren’t you the one who broke the glass last time?”

“At this point, turn your hand into an asshole!”

“sorry! sorry!”

Despite Japheth’s apology, the atmosphere became more and more violent. Only John, with beer on his head, knew Japheth’s intentions.

It is the resistance that the powerless man has been steadily carrying out here.

Despite suffering all kinds of violence and abusive language from the manager, he made the same mistake repeatedly and turned the gambling house into a mess.

As the eldest son of an aristocratic family whose family and honor had already been lost due to gambling, he said he would not create more people like him.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”

Perhaps his apology without an object was not directed at the guests. Thrown by the idiot who ruined the family to his parents and younger brother.

The caretaker had already found and brought the whip. Then he began to strike Japheth down without mercy.

“You! What the hell! Well! What are you doing! What!”

Chok chok chok – the whipping that only a slave is given was inflicted on that idiot. I hope this will calm the anger of the guests.

The flesh and blood that jumped out with each whipping, fortunately, produced the expected effect. Severe whipping can kill a person. The turmoil in the hall gradually subsided, and now ‘Who’s to stop it?’ The sound was noisy.

But at the same time, a voice the manager didn’t expect came through.

“Hey. What a fuss.”

A voice that sounds like you just woke up.

A sharp-looking man walked out of the boudoir at the back of the gambling hall.

Yohan, who had already drenched himself in beer, looked at the man as he wiped his bangs as if washing his face.

The strongest enemy that appears in this event, [Frantimo’s Gambling Room].

He was the last gambler.
