chapter 68's

"let's start the game"

before starting the game Brian suddenly pulled Arcane and said.

"what exhibition are you going to play? not asking people to represent you"

Arcane looked at Brian with a puzzled look because a moment ago he said trust and bet on him, but Arcane did not reply and smiled confidently and turned around.

Brian who saw Arcane is now starting to worry because he knows that his luck is actually very bad, this makes him want to make Arcane faint and replace him.

but it's too late, the game has started and now no one can disturb them while playing.

the game begins with each person taking an identical card and shuffling it, the card is also spun 4 times after a while passes the cards are collected and shuffled again.

there is also someone who distributes cards to each player here there is some dispute about the appointment where each player argues about who will be the dealer.

but eventually Arcane comes out and pulls someone passing by and makes himself the card holder, everyone agrees and the game begins.

they do a very basic game that is Arcane poker is actually quite relieved because there is a game that is quite familiar to him.

the cards are dealt with 5 cards each and they bet on the smallest item first, such as 1 slave 1 bottle of poison etc.

conditions are normal in the early minutes but the longer the betting conditions are getting bigger and the conditions are getting cornered especially for Arcane.

he never won though and a landslide victory achieved by Fake, they were guessed from the beginning how this game went.

but Arcane still put on his flat gaze as usual to show a calm attitude, but even so his body did not show a sense of calm at all.

Fake, aware of Arcane's body language, said condescendingly.

"you better just give up, a kid like you shouldn't play like this"

Arcane just looked at Brian with his flat gaze and then Arcane looked at his card and smiled.

on the other hand Brian was resigned to the situation, he would lose everything in his precious life but a word from Arcane made him realize.

"Four of a kind" said Arcane.

for a moment the hope in Brian began to shine but he was still slapped by reality and realized that it was likely sheer luck.

on the other hand at the third gambling table Arcane's opponents only got mocked and Rose said condescendingly.

"don't be too happy young because it's just luck"

Arcane just smiled and continued the game, and it turned out the game was longer than it seemed.

from one-sided wins to draws all those who play become confused by what happens.

and now Kai commented.

"why does it feel like entering a labyrinth? "

fake and Rose felt the same way later after a few rounds Rose commented.

"what's this? this game is like a pull"

they are now more irritated then Fake began to be impatient.

"arghs....

what game is this, what are we really playing"

seeing all his opponents annoyed Arcane immediately spoke flatly.

"how do we end here...

I'm Al in"

Arcane said that even when the cards had not been dealt but said as if he had won the game.

"shit what do you mean! you don't even have enough to bankrupt us! "

"oh Yeah....? then what is all this"

reply Arcane by pointing towards his back.

everyone saw and was quite surprised the reason was unknowingly all Arcane people had possessed almost the entirety of his opponent's third treasure.

if Arcane does "all in" in this poker game then all his enemies must also follow but with the record Arcane enough to issue bets as he pleases with a minimum amount equivalent to the overall funds owned by his opponent.

but Arcane took out all the items he had so inevitably Fake, Kai, and Rose had to spend additional funds to meet the stakes.

they saw what they got before but how surprised they were with the results they got, because they got slaves or items that are not too valuable.

they were now staring at Arcane with horrified gazes and not daring to underestimate him, they were instantly betting on taking out their most precious treasure.

starting from Fake took out a ring.

"i'm betting what's in this ring with my main item (the Brian family and the land documents) here there's something that can make a lot of people teleport"

rose also pulled out a thick book.

"i'm risking the manufacture manual and the antidote to poison, even if it's a copy but it's not worthless"

Arcane checked and considered it as an equal then he looked at Kai and found that he was thinking, then he said with confidence.

"i'm risking my loyalty! "

"BRAK!!!!"

the entire audience was silent and took some time to digest the situation, but without a second thought Arcane immediately accepted Kai's proposal.

a commotion immediately occurred at the gambling place while the followers of Kai did not accept.

"no sir you can't do it! "

"sir you can risk me, but don't risk you! "

various words were thrown at Kai, but Kai himself raised his hand and said firmly.

"it's my business, so you can't interfere! "

after that the cards are dealt straight away, the atmosphere gets more and more holding as the betting on this table exceeds what one could imagine.

one by one opening the cards slowly and the most detrimental is Kai, all his cards trash whatever he does become garbage.

on the other hand Fake smiled broadly.

"full house....

mr. Kai looks like you're under a new boss now"

Fake said that because he was sure he would win and he also saw that the other two enemies were silent and pensive.

rose's face was very unpleasant to look at and looked at the book under her palm, Fake then stood up and took the book but still held Rose.

"don't break the rules, you have to be fair here" Fake said.

but when the book was sliding down the middle of Arcane's table, he threw his card right in front of Fake, and Fake noticed it was sweating coldly.

he then looked at Arcane with annoyance, while Arcane smiled triumphantly with his flat gaze.

"royal flush....

looks like you're breaking things up too soon"

everyone fell silent again and could not believe what they saw, and Arcane picked up the book and read it as if nothing had happened.
