Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death - Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death chapter 103

The Last Gambler carries a total of 18 knives. This coincidentally coincided with the number of cards you see when you continue to the final phase in the card game ‘Empire’.

The number of knives he can throw at the same time is 4.

And the form he attacks during the game is fixed.

First, it is an ambassador.

The last gambler said with an expressionless face.

“The stakes for the final bet are always fixed.”

Piralo, too, was not intimidated.

“What?”

“What is it, life.”

After that, the last gambler took out two knives from his shins.

Write – evil!

The last gambler’s two knives slashed across the table. It was a throw containing a terrifying energy, aided by his secret skill.

And at that time, countless cards came out from Pirallo’s chest.

“Then don’t think you did the same thing!”

Cheer la la rock-

Her card that could one day leave a scar on the walls of the academy.

The card converged towards the two flying knives. As long as she was endowed with magical power, her cards could no longer be treated as servants.

Chajangchangchangchangchangchang!

A sound that could only be heard when metal collided with each other erupted between the wizard’s card and the last gambler’s knife. It was like a group of ants clinging to an insect larger than themselves.

Pirallo’s cards erroneously distorted the knife thrown by the last gambler. The knives passed beside Pirallo’s ears, slightly ruffling the hair in her wig. Then, it was driven deep into the wall behind her.

follow! Just-!

It was a sound indicating that the throw had failed. Piralo, on the other hand, wasn’t even all-in on defense. She was able to simultaneously control all the cards she created. Half of her cards flew across the knives and began to ram the last gambler.

The ovum that followed with a cheak-cheak- sound was incomparable to the cruelty of Japheth’s whipping. Cards as sharp as blades stabbed and cut the opponent’s vitals.

The eyes and ears of the last gambler.

Neck and arms.

and the heart.

The last gambler collapsed with a ‘thud’. People screamed and backed away, and Joan quickly pushed Adrine behind him and drew his sword. It was an instant battle. Pirallo said to the last gambler who had fallen covered in blood.

“my-“

‘… Pirallo, who was about to say, had a strange feeling. The voice didn’t come out well. After a while, she looked down at herself and realized why.

There were two knives stuck in his stomach.

Only then did she understand the situation. The reason why the opponent threw two knives with a positive comment instead of a surprise attack.

He wanted to hide the existence of the other two knives he was about to throw under the table.

‘damn. It’s ruined.’

Pirallo pulled out a knife with a harsh moan. Red blood gushed out from the spot where the blade had been pulled out. Eventually, she tried to pull out the remaining one, but failed. She fell down, holding onto the handle of the knife.

And Yohan, who watched the entire process, opened the system log. And the log contained the irony of the meaning of the event [Frantimo’s Gambling Hall] and the confrontation with the wizard who intervened in it.

[Could not save ‘Zigzag Peter’.]

[1st simulation failed.]

[Attempting the second simulation.]

It is because of John’s purpose.

The purpose of this simulation is to ‘save’ the last gambler.

Of course, this last gambler is the event’s key antagonist. But he shouldn’t be killed by a wizard like this.

This is because there are rare items in his secret vault that have not yet been put on the table.

Why did Yohan come to this event with Adrine?

The trump arrow possessed by the last gambler.

It is to obtain the [perm flesh].

The two men and women collapsed in the simulation, but the two men and women in real life are still in confrontation. The energy they spread was mingling with the heat of the excited crowd, becoming something terrifying.

John thought quickly.

‘Can I step in and change the outcome?’

The second round of simulation continued in his head. The Last Gambler and Pirallo exchanged the same lines as in the first round.

“The stakes for the final bet are always fixed.”

“What?”

“What is it, life.”

Then, just as the last gambler was about to throw his knife, John jumped onto the table. He had pulled out the weapon of justice from his inventory.

And the last gambler thought of him as one with Pirallo. And because of that part, the difference started to appear.

shook- shot-

One of the knives that originally flew towards Pirallo flew towards John.

And the [smell of death], the secret technique of the Espertz family, clearly warned them that it was an attack they could never avoid.

It’s not just knife throwing. It is a knife throw applied with the Zigzag family’s secret technique, [Justice Karma]. Right now, in this place, there is only one person who even has the possibility of cutting off this flying knife with a sword.

Under the assumption that Adrine is facing a crisis, the character who is systematically corrected for her actions, Guardian Knight Hoan.

But Johann was not Hoan.

pug.

The knife was stuck in John’s throat. And the last gambler collapsed in a more messed up state than in the first round.

[Could not save ‘Zigzag Peter’.]

[2nd simulation failed.]

[Attempting the third simulation.]

This was a more desperate situation than when facing dragon soldiers during training. Observing the battle between the two with my own eyes, it seemed like an absurd situation to return Piralo’s card. Unlike knives, which are thrown from within her field of vision, her cards fly towards the enemy in a free trajectory.

This wasn’t simply a matter of ‘you can feed the spin’. It means that her card can fly over John’s head and then fall from the blind spot and get stuck in the back of John’s head.

And it was not a situation where I could run the simulation with ease anyway.

“The stakes for the final bet are always fixed.”

“The stakes for the final bet are always fixed.”

John felt as if he was hearing an echo. It was because the lines of the last gambler in the 3rd simulation and his lines in reality overlapped.

John made a quick decision.

“Cancel simulation.”

Then he spoke urgently to Piralo.

“for a moment. I have something to tell you.”

Pirallo looked at John as if he was dumbfounded, and the last gambler smiled.

“what. Did you two know each other?”

“… Where does everyone grow their liver these days?”

John felt a strong [smell of death]. Unlike before, this time it was the smell of reality, and the subject was Piralo, not the last gambler.

She glared at John and said.

“I think I said that if you pretend to know, you will fall behind.”

“80 percent.”

“… What.”

“I will give it to you. That 80 percent. On condition that you get out of the game.”

John thought it was the best move.

It can satisfy both the last gambler who will try to enslave Adrin through gambling and the magician who likes money at the same time.

Of course, there were important conditions for this number to work. Piralo pointed out that.

“Show me first.”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you have that much money?”

“… I’ll pick it up for you.”

Fit, the last gambler laughed. It was a laugh full of ridicule. Pirallo said, still unable to erase the smell of death.

“I can’t. Didn’t you learn that there are no traumas in gambling?”

“Then let’s use this as collateral.”

The last words were what Adrine said. She threw the object that had been placed at Joan’s feet at Pirallo. Piralo caught the flying object and looked at it suspiciously.

At first, I thought it was something like a knife. Because it was a long-awaited item. After confirming the object’s identity, she was genuinely amazed.

It was a crocodile-skin umbrella that Hoan, the guardian knight, had brought all the way here. Even a person who has no knowledge of object appraisal can assume that it is a valuable item.

Joan tried to dislike it first, but Piralo spoke faster.

“Now give me this… .”

“yes. This umbrella is made from real crocodile leather. Even if you leave it at the pawnshop, it will be quite a lot of money. It’s been a long time since I left my gold items at the dorm today, so that’s the only thing that’s valuable right now.”

A moment of silence passed.

Eventually, Pirallo spoke to John with a chirping sound.

“That blonde hair saved you.”

John was relieved. Because the smell of death is gone.

She pushed the chip she was holding in the direction of the dealer as if tossing it. The dealer said while collecting the chips.

“You two give up the game. We will burn all the chips of those who gave up. Three players left. It is 3-way.”

Adrine looked back and forth between John and the Last Gambler. The appearance of the magician seemed to be unexpected even to him, but anyway, the situation was as John had said when he arrived.

She reviewed the conversation she had with John.

‘I’m sure the boss there will try to stay alone with you.’

‘Why?’

Then, conscious of the guardian knight, Yohan whispered in his ear.

‘Because of your beauty.’

It is a little unclear why his cheeks became hot at that time. Adrin didn’t know if it was because of John’s praise for her beauty or because of the breath on her ear.

‘And I intend to make it that way.’

John continued to speak.

‘You probably won’t be able to defeat him with your ability to see through the truth.’

‘yes? Then why bother me… .’

‘In a heads-up situation, the parties sometimes add or modify the game rules. And I know the conditions he will accept.’

And John also told me about the condition. The gulp passed. It was because he was nervous about whether the situation would go according to his words.

“I will continue the game.”

The dealer deals another hand. After accepting the card, Yohan took a deep breath.

It could even be said to be one of the worst. Chapter 2, spread by the community, is a wizard.

Three barbarians and one commoner.

For a moment, the eyes of Japheth and John, who were standing next to the last gambler, met. Although John’s chip was substantial, Japheth’s face was not hopeful.

It was because he knew countless gamblers who collapsed in front of the last gambler.

The dealer who handed out all the cards said in a businesslike tone.

“Please give me the card to discard.”

John’s breathing slowly rose. He intended to repeat the way he had been able to pick up chips.

“I will not change.”

John’s voice trembled a little. What he would do now was something he should never have done in front of that last gambler.

The act of risking one’s life if caught in a gambling board.

It was just a trick.
