The Traitor: Relic War
Chp. 57 Choosing the Wrong Way

"Thank you for bringing my daughter back safely Kanade Zen..." Demian expressed his gratitude to the figure of Zen who was right beside him, where at that time they were watching Maihime's sleeping face that was still unconscious since Zen brought him back.

The mother now looks busy caring for the princess only wayangnya and from her face alone Zen know that she is very worried about the condition of Maihime who fainted.

"Don't worry about that..." Zen's short reply, his speech was the opposite of his facial expression that seemed to care about nothing.

"Then, what are you going to do in the future from now on" asked Demian who had heard the details of what Zen and Maihime had experienced, Zen betrayed by the kingdom of Terarria makes Demian feel pity even though Zen had been the person who played the most important role in the peace of the kingdom.

"Don't you know that already?" Zen started walking towards the exit of the room and was about to leave them.

"You mean you want to take revenge on the kingdom of Terarria..." Guess Demian who might seem too rushed to draw conclusions.

"Revenge... What is it?, such an action will not satisfy me... After revenge what I'll get..." Pulling the door slowly Zen glanced inside, glancing at Demian who had a confused face and did not understand the meaning of his words.

"Then what are you going to do..."

"Of course not... I will be the god of this world..."

"Become... Gods..."

"I'm strong after all..." Zen passed by just like that after giving a statement that sounded so bold and filled with that determination, a sinister smile was clearly drawn as he said that.

He is now beginning to step towards a place that he himself does not know where, there is no intention in him to cooperate with the kingdom of Nipotia or other Kingdom, he said, because it was exactly as he said that he would truly become a god in this new world, no matter what would happen to him in the future.

With the black coat he received from Demian before Zen began to walk outside the palace and unite with people who were passing in the streets of the bustling city.

Walking while bowing his head and not caring about anyone he passed or who passed through, the day that was late and soon would turn into night made him feel a little relieved.

Since he only had a little money left and his plan tonight he would go to a place where money could come to him quickly.

True, a gambling area where he was sure that many people with a lot of money would go there, he said, he did not have much of a plan for it and would only bet on the luck he had even though he was not at all dear to the Goddess of Fortuna.

Spending quite a lot of time walking in the city at night arrived, without the need to find a place that Zen wants to visit is already visible from a distance.

Entering a building that looks like a regular bar, Zen generally takes off the hood of his coat and starts to mimic around the area.

The scenery may look like a bar scene in general, where colorful lights that illuminate, irregular music from the direction of a music group, and, women in skimpy clothes who sit around some men and may also face the frustration and satisfaction of people who win or lose in gambling.

"Vivacious... The King of Gambling really finished off his opponent again this time..."

"He lost big..."

"How rich a man can beat the king of gambling later..."

"Surely he could lose... Wasn't from the beginning no one had been able to defeat him..."

"You can go now... Next time you just have to bring in more money..." Said the arrogant-faced man whom Zen suspected of being the one who was called the king of gambling by the person earlier.

With a face of shame and a body that was not the slightest clothing that man was now running towards the exit of the bar very quickly trying to leave the crowd that was relentlessly laughing at him.

Zen smiled, because he finally found the one who deserved to be his opponent because if he won he would become suddenly rich, or that was what he thought.

He summoned his Relic then formed a half-face mask that was exactly like Aki's and then wore it.

Zen advanced past the crowd that was still filling the table where the gambling was then stood across the table of the gambling king who was now busy with the women who surrounded him.

"Excuse Me, sir... If you don't mind, you'll fight me..." Zen's speech offered himself spontaneously to challenge the gambling king.

"Some of them still have the courage to fight me... Then all right... Please sit..." He replied after his attention was diverted from the women before heading to Zen who was wearing a mask to hide his identity.

"Thank you, this is an honor..." Reply Zen still pretended to be polite and then sat across.

"Then how much money do you have..."

Zen answered him while throwing a bag of leather containing all the money he had on the table.

"Maybe it's about 5,000 ril..." Answer a little awkwardly.

"5,000 ril?, that's even enough for one game..." Said the gambling king underestimating Zen.

"Help you make it two or three games..." Please Zen keep his charade full of adulation to the gambling king.

"alright... I'll make it two games..." After feeling that Zen really meant it, the King finally agreed and took a card from under the table.

"Tell me what your name is a reckless young man." he asked as he handed the card to one woman with the look of the actor next to him.

"Rain.. My name is Rain..." Reply Zen who began to think of his pseudonym.

"Alright Rein my name is Cald... Are you ready for the game..." Looks like the gambling king turned very serious.

"Of course Mr. Cald... I'm ready whenever you're ready..."

"Then why don't we just start the game..."

"Well... Let's start..."
