Chapter10. Only gamble where you can win (5)
However, there was little chance that Princess Violet would really upset the situation.
The stake for the two of us alone is several hundred thousand gold. With all of that on the line, it was clear that it was one of the largest games in casinos today.
‘No matter how much the princess is, she can’t just turn over something like that.’
If that happens, the very foundation of this casino will be shaken.
Moreover, many nobles watched the entire process. Even if your pride is hurt, you won’t be able to easily talk back.
After making a rational decision, I pulled all of Princess Violet’s chips in front of me.
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
There were so many chips that it felt like a huge mountain was moving just by moving them.
‘It’s a huge mountain of chips.’
I grinned and looked at the chips placed in front of me.
When combined with the chip that was already in front of me, the sight was truly majestic and absolutely enchanting.
“this……!”
Princess Violet just gritted her teeth as if she had lost her ability to speak for a moment.
“why……!”
Rather than the fact that her chips were moved to me, or the fact that she lost a huge amount of money.
“Why did you lose?”
He seemed angry at the fact that he lost to me.
“I’m sure…!”
Yes, I know. At least Princess Violet’s memory is quite good.
But her memory is poor compared to Abel’s.
There is a huge difference between memorizing everything as if it were a drawing and vaguely remembering it.
‘I also interfered with some things.’
But no one but me would know this fact. I shouldn’t have known from now on.
“It was pretty fun.”
I took the chips and stood up.
“Then I’m done here.”
“what……!”
Princess Violet raised her head.
“Are you going to just rob me like this and leave?”
He must have been quite excited, so he used thick words that were not typical of royal family.
“Have a seat. Do it one more time!”
“Well, no matter how many times I do it, the result will be the same, right?”
I responded leisurely and turned away from the table. Princess Violet got angry and jumped up.
“Aren’t you going to stand there?”
I pretended not to have heard her call and left the room.
His attitude was as if he didn’t care about her at all. Actually, there was only one thought in my head.
“The currency exchange office… ah, it’s over there.”
I need to quickly change it into money.
I was looking for a currency exchange office for a different purpose than before.
“I told you to stand there!”
Princess Violet’s threatening shouts grew louder behind her.
“what?”
“Aren’t you Princess Violet?”
“What’s going on?”
People began to pay attention to Princess Violet, who was running out of the room with a buzz.
“Oh my.”
You did a great job wearing that dress.
I faithfully ignored the princess’s calls and hid myself among the people.
“There… evil!”
Princess Violet’s screams were heard from behind. It looks like she tripped over her own feet and fell.
“sulfur……!”
The escort knight hurriedly called out to her and then closed his mouth.
“It’s crazy, it’s crazy.”
I walked leisurely.
I was threatened to continue living, but if I suddenly woke up, I would feel dizzy. Your legs will probably be so weak that you won’t be able to walk properly for a while.
“exchange.”
As I approached the currency exchange booth and handed over the sack, the employee’s eyes widened slightly. No matter how long a noble may be, it would be rare for him to change this amount of chips at once.
“All of this?”
“Uh. Right now. Be quick.”
Because the angry princess is chasing me right now.
As I cast a cold glance, the employee’s hands quickened.
“Here it is.”
The employee’s hands were shaking as he handed over the bag containing the gold coins. This was because the sack was quite heavy.
“effort.”
Clang.
As soon as I received the sack, I felt a pleasant weight.
“Well, with this money, I can use it to fund my activities for a while.”

I grinned and turned around. Then, he extended his gaze far and checked Princess Violet’s location.
“Where did you go?”
Princess Violet was seen standing up with a huff.
‘Here, here.’
I waved my hand leisurely at her.
“That!”
Princess Violet gritted her teeth and began to walk.
“Be careful!”
Even shaking off the hands of the escort knights who tried to dissuade her.
“Hmm.”
I leisurely walked to the place I had looked at earlier. Even if she walked like that, she was much faster than the current princess who was shaky.
“Move!”
“Who…! Wow!”
Princess Violet tried to approach me by roughly pushing people away. It didn’t seem easy because there were so many people crowded together.
Even though I had already arrived at my intended destination.
‘It’s here.’
He stopped in front of the balcony and waved his hand towards Princess Violet.
“That’s real!”
Princess Violet got closer and closer. Her escort knights followed her in a panic, but they could not stop her.
“I’ll have a drink.”
I grabbed two glasses of champagne from a passing employee’s tray. Then I opened the balcony door and went inside.
widely.
A lot of time had already passed, and it was completely dark outside.
“Hoo.”
The capital, Maggiore, is also famous for its uniquely beautiful night view. The sight of the moonlight streaming through the tall geometric buildings was truly spectacular.
‘Is this place included in the capital tour package?’
I think it was probably one of the key night view courses. Enjoy the night view of the capital Maggiore from the balcony of this casino.
‘I achieved one by chance.’
The moment I finished appreciating the night view,
bang!
The balcony door was thrown open roughly.
“Hey! Can’t you hear me?”
It was Princess Violet, grinning with red cheeks beneath the mask.
‘Oh my gosh, now I’ve lost all my titles.’
Anyway, I guess she’s the first princess of the empire. My father is probably the only person that the princess gives an honorific title to.
“I heard it.”
“what?”
The princess rolled her eyes at my indifferent answer.
“Are you saying you just ignored what I said?”
“Not really.”
I pointed to the champagne glass I had placed on the terrace railing.
“I called you here to talk.”
“If that’s the case…!”
“well.”
Princess Violet stopped fussing and spoke.
“I don’t think it’s a good time to talk about it. Unless you grab me by the collar, you’ll know.”
Princess Violet crossed her arms.
“A collar! Do I look like such an ignorant person?”
The corners of his lips trembled slightly, as if he had been stabbed internally.
‘It looks like that’s what he was trying to do.’
However, there was no need to make Princess Violet angry again by pointing out that fact here.
“Well, I’m glad that’s not the case.”
I picked up a glass of champagne and held it out to Princess Violette.
“Now that the game is over, how about a drink?”
“under.”
Princess Violet looked at the glass as if it were absurd.
Perhaps no one in the empire had been so lax towards him. But that fact actually aroused the princess’s interest.
“It’s outrageous, really.”
Even as she said that, Princess Violet stretched out her hand toward the cup.
“I guess you knew I wasn’t drinking on purpose?”
“You’re not good at drinking.”
Princess Violet was startled by the short reply. She quickly took her glass away, taking note of her expression.
“Hmph, who said that? I’m a weak drinker.”
Her fingers were scratching the end of her mask as she grunted softly.
No, I hit the nail on the head.
I chuckled and looked away. Princess Violette took a sip of the champagne in her hand.
“Whew.”
What I chose this time was a bluish champagne. It was the lowest alcohol content I’ve ever drunk.
As if that alone was burning her throat, a faint sigh poured from the corner of Princess Violet’s mouth.
“……ha.”
Princess Violette swallowed champagne again.
Her cheeks quickly turned red. So much so that you can see its color in the faint moonlight.
“Oh, it’s hot.”
Princess Violet quickly took off the shawl she was wearing. And she held out the shawl to me as if it were completely natural.
I stared at the red shawl thrown in front of me.
They are treating people like servants.
“I heard it was cold one day.”
As I took the shawl and scolded her, Princess Violet snorted happily.
“That’s strange. Why was it so cold earlier?”
“I know.”
I answered half-heartedly and roughly placed the shawl on the balcony railing. Princess Violette saw that and raised her eyebrows.
“Why are you putting that up there?”
“My arm hurts. It’s too heavy.”
I spoke casually and waved my arms.
“You took all those chips with you just now.”
“That’s why my arm hurts.”
“under!”
Princess Violet turned her head as if she didn’t want to answer. Her mouth filled with champagne again and her cheeks became a little more red.
“Hmph. It tastes pretty good.”
“I’ve tried three types of drinks so far and they were all good.”
“Of course it’s delicious. I chose it.”
“really?”
I didn’t know that he was even involved in the operation of the casino.
Princess Violette nodded and finally emptied the champagne glass.
“Ah, it’s hot.”
As she was fanning herself with her hands, she suddenly grabbed her hair and pulled it off. Her golden wig, which had been held tightly in place, came off, revealing her jet-black hair that had been tied up underneath it.
“Whew.”
After Princess Violet smoothed her hair a few times,
Sigh.
Hair that seemed to have been cut out of the night sky spread out like a curtain.
According to the popular saying, Princess Violet closely resembles the emperor’s overbearing personality and the empress’ beautiful beauty.
Indeed, just by standing still, the nobility unique to the royal family overflowed. No, rather, wearing a mask added to the sense of mystery and made the effect stronger.
“also,”
Princess Violet’s lips moved.
“Do you know who I am?”
“well.”
I gave a vague answer on purpose. Princess Violette snorted at my blunt response.
“You were acting so arrogantly, I thought you were an aristocratic brat from the countryside.”
Princess Violet swept away a few strands of hair that had fallen over the mask.
“If you look at the clothes you’re wearing or what you’re doing, it doesn’t seem like that.”
His clear gaze, not yet clouded by alcohol, glanced at me.
“What’s your name?”
I deliberately didn’t answer and just sipped champagne. After a pause until Princess Violette was sufficiently nervous, she opened her mouth.
“Are you that curious about that?”
“To the point where I want to take off my mask right now. Wouldn’t that make you a little more obedient?”
“Ugh, be scared.”
I spoke with a stern tone and put down the half-empty champagne glass. And then she bent her waist towards the princess.
“Do you want to be polite even now? Princess Violet Maggiore Impero.”
“…….”
Princess Violet stared at the top of my head, which was bowed politely in front of her.
In principle, anyone lower in rank than the royal family cannot raise their head until the royal family greets them.
“how is it?”
But I lifted my head and grinned. Just innocently and harmlessly.
“Do you like this?”
“……Ha, indeed.”
Princess Violet twitched her lips as if she was shocked when she saw me like that.
