How To Survive as a Crazy Prince - How To Survive as a Crazy Prince chapter 96

“I heard that you are using it.”

I removed my hand from the door and faced Carte. I was a little surprised at the height of 190 cm, but I was wearing high heels. I feel a little bad.

“I heard that there is an interesting gambling hall.”

“There is no such thing.”

Carte flatly dismissed my question. Are you thinking of not letting outsiders know?

“Are you pretending? I came to know everything.”

“It is nonsense. I can’t say it never happened, but that’s all a thing of the past.”

“okay? Hmm. is it.”

Carte seemed to have no intention of admitting it. I signaled to Ethel standing behind me with a wink and put my hand in her bosom.

“I brought it to use as stake, but it’s only now that it’s useless.”

In his open hand, which he took out without holding anything from his bosom, there were a lot of sparkling jewels.

“… … Aww.”

Carte narrowed his eyes as if he felt intrigued by the jewel of ‘fantasy’ that sparkles wonderfully with just a little light in the dark basement.

“Is it real?”

“1st grade, do you know how rude the question you just asked is?”

“sorry. Stop because it is such a beautiful jewel.”

Carte politely apologized as I furrowed my eyebrows in displeasure.

“If you suspect something, check it out with your magic of truth.”

“… … Oh my goodness. If you know that, I am very curious about where you came across this information.”

When I savagely hit and came out, Carte opened her thin eyes wide for a moment, then returned with a smirking expression. I pretend to be calm, but I feel that my sarcasm is hurt.

“I won’t do anything stupid like that. The act of confirming the truth is much more likely to break mutual trust. As for the truth, it is often better to cover it up in moderation.”

Carte waved his hand and said. Fortunately, it worked as I expected.

“That’s an interesting idea.”

“It is a conclusion drawn from years of experience as the possessor of the magic of truth.”

Putting the fantasy jewel back in my bosom, I stroked Ethel’s head. Ethel grinned as if to say that this is enough.

“So, ask again. Is there no gambling house?”

“… … It shouldn’t have been there originally, but it can’t be helped if you show that much enthusiasm.”

Carte laughed as if he was embarrassed and knocked on the door in front of the iron door.

Knock knock, knock, knock, knock, knock knock.

Soon there was the sound of a clatter, a clatter, and the sound of a lock being unlocked from the inside. It was ironic that the sign of the password was the same as the sign of SOS.

The large, rusty iron door opened with a sound that sounded like something out of a horror movie.

“Are you the Master?”

The one who opened the door was a woman in a neat suit with somewhat empty eyes.

“okay. How are you today?”

“As usual. Fools who don’t realize they’re idiots just keep fooling around.”

The woman said bitterly and led us into the casino.

The casino in the basement was a much dingier place than I thought.

“Damn, damn. Just this time, just this time, if I win big, I can pay it all back. please!”

“Kuuu Ugh, aaa… … . ah, ah… … .”

It was a damp and sunken space, in contrast to the fancy casinos you see in movies.

Light bulbs flickering unsteadily with little magic left, beverage bars with empty cups stacked haphazardly, and people sitting opposite the machines and straining their eyes.

‘… … machine?’

One big surprise was that more people were glued to machines resembling slot machines or pachinko than to gamble face-to-face. It was more modern than I thought.

“What is that machine?”

“This is an entertainment device that my family has recently been developing. Isn’t it quite common to want to gamble but have no opponent? So I made it.”

I took a closer look at the machine. Except for the fact that the whole was made of analog, they were objects that greatly resembled modern devices.

‘Are you saying it’s annoying to deal with directly now? It’s awful.’

At this point, there is nothing other than the lyre. Click, click, chatter, the sound of machines running, moaning, and occasional exclamations lingered in my ears unpleasantly.

“I am not interested in machines. Because what I want to do is win.”

I slammed the machine with my fist, annoyed. Carte furrowed his eyebrows for a moment, then smiled smirkingly.

“I don’t think your brother is like that?”

“How does this work? It’s strange. This is the first time.”

When I looked back at those words, Ethel was sitting in front of the machine, touching it here and there as if it were strange. The way he fidgeted with the lever that made the clicking sound was just like when you had a child play a game.

“for a moment. Ethel, don’t do anything stupid.”

“Isn’t it okay to have one round? I wonder how it works.”

Ethel stomped her legs and laughed. I don’t think I’ll ever move until I try. In the position of being helped by illusion art, there is no point in refusing.

“If the little girl is like that, I have to let you know. I will pay the stake.”

“It’s not your machine anyway. To speak patronizingly.”

Carte took out some gold coins and put them inside the machine. Then, the screen of the slot began to rotate vigorously. It was a sight that inadvertently took away one’s gaze.

“You just move the lever up and down to stop. If they match horizontally and diagonally, you win.”

“hmm… … . Mmm. ugh… … .”

Ethel glared at the fast-spinning slot.

“Eight!”

And then he moved the lever with a click. The fast-spinning slot stopped with a click-click-click. At the same time, gold coins tumbled out of the hole at the bottom.

“Oh, 666 is out. No. 1!”

It is very bad taste that it is 666 and not 777.

“Oh, oh oh?! did something happen?! Awesome!”

I was so excited that I forgot that Ethel had changed her tone in excitement. The amount of gold coins pouring out was quite a lot of money. It was about three times the standard monthly salary of Sangvis Sangvis. I was about to stand up from the surroundings and look at this place with an expression of disbelief.

‘They gave me a raffle on purpose.’

But I was dumbfounded. Because I knew it was manipulated.

It was obvious because I was looking at it with a boost. The slot stopped regardless of the moment the lever was moved. He gave Ethel the prize on purpose.

“What is this?! Earning money is so easy, is it okay to have something like this?!”

The reason is obvious. I would like to make something like this I immediately stopped Ethel from putting in more gold coins.

“It’s not our money. calm down.”

“Oh my goodness. Does it matter if I give it to you?”

“I don’t remember coming here to receive entertainment, and I have no intention of giving it a privilege.”

“okay. Still, there is one left. How about trying your luck?”

As Carte said, the slot was spinning again. I clicked my tongue and stood in front. Then, after glancing at the screen for a moment, I quickly clicked the lever.

It was a bummer that didn’t fit anything.

“I’m sorry, but I think it’s okay to count it as a trick.”

“I’m not here to hang out with these pranks.”

I thought so, but the timing of moving the lever had no meaning. The timing of pulling the lever is good, and it just spits out the result according to the set probability.

really lucky. It was nothing more, nothing less.

‘Considering that the winnings were manipulated, the opposite is also possible. It’s a garbage machine.’

I hugged Ethel from behind and threw her off the machine. And I looked around again.

“It’s a terrible space.”

People are like zombies turning levers. Most were commoners, but there were also a few nobles. There were some people holding cards at the table, but the atmosphere was not much different from the people in front of the machine.

“If there is any place in Sangvis Sangvis that is the most miserable, it would be here.”

From noble mtl dot com

“Even if it’s not elegant, isn’t it pleasant to look at?”

Despite my sarcastic remarks, Carte smiled calmly.

“The pitiful figure desperately trying to climb up the wall of one’s insurmountable status with a stack of cards and a few levers, I find it unbearably pitiful and yet lovable.”

Carte twisted his body as he narrowly looked at those who were addicted to gambling with contempt. It was a bad move.

“It’s not just fashion that’s bad taste.”

“Whoa, whoop whoop… … . Then let’s get back to the point. Did you say you wanted to gamble one-on-one?”

Carte, who had been giggling, sat down ahead at the table. And the woman in the suit who opened the door a while ago handed over the list.

“I will find a good opponent. Today I happened to have a good customer… … .”

“My opponent is this gambling house.”

I cut Carte off. Carte took her eyes off the list and looked at me.

“I came here to break down the gambling den.

“… … I don’t know what you mean.”

I took a step closer to Carte and faced him. Carte faced me squarely without fear.

“Simple. We’re going to gamble with each other’s everything, Master.”

“Oh my goodness.”

Carte laughed. But the eyes weren’t laughing at all. Like a snake in front of its prey, it was glaring at me fiercely.

“It’s an interesting proposition, but is all of you really worth it compared to all of mine?”

I closed the list and Carte stood in front of me.

“Wouldn’t it be fine to find out with your true magic or something? It’s a simple thing for you, isn’t it?”

“In that case, I must first disclose my property.”

Carte sighed as if he was annoyed. Then he took out a notebook from his pocket and began to scan it.

“The amount calculated by adding the bonds to be received is——”

The figures Carte spoke were the ones that would have shaken him inadvertently if he had been careless. The number of digits was one more than expected.

‘You’ve been extorting money from iron-blooded people, you bastard.’

That amount was never a figure that could be gathered within the academy. It is impossible unless you are running a few casinos like this outside.

“You’ve collected a lot of dirty money. Then ask me.”

My personal wealth is less than 10%, let alone half.

“Are you able to pay for the property that corresponds to this?”

But I have something to match.

that.

“there is.”

It is the blood of the emperor.

There is no more value than Sanghyeol.

No, it is not permitted to exist. Because this is such a place.

“how is it. You think I’m lying?”

“… … Oh dear.”

Carpe shook his head as if embarrassed.

“Really, what an interesting guest… … . I’m starting to get interested in the very existence of you.”

Then he twisted the corners of his mouth and gave a terrifying laugh.

“Let me respond. To gamble with each other’s everything.”
