Luck is a Charm - Chapter 279

There were shock, disbelief, and confused expressions from every player in the Dragon Gambling Den.

After all, the Dragon Gambling Den may be a luxurious casino for the wealthiest people in the Jade Kingdom, it was extremely uncommon for royalty to be in.

Meanwhile, the so-called Prince showed an amused expression at Zen.

“How did you figure that out?” The prince asked as he was curious about his identity being exposed.

“I have made sure to wear some of the common noble’s clothes and barely revealed any of my presence.” He added.

Zen curled his lips upward as he glanced at the Prince.

“Indeed, your attire may make you look like any rich noble and not a Prince,” Zen said.

The Prince was about to open his mouth to reply until Zen continued his speech.

“Alas, you have missed one thing. The way you handle the cards and your demeanor are significantly different from others.” Zen laughed as he played with the cards in his hand.

He was imitating the play style of the Prince and allowed him to see where his mistake was.

“Oh, so that’s how I gave myself away.” The Prince clapped his hand as he realized his mistake.

“Heh, next time if you want to be in disguise, just your clothes and aura are not enough. You’ll need to work on your behavior and actions as well.” Zen kindly reminded him.

“I see… shall we get back to the poker game now?” The Prince asked.

“Of course, isn’t that the reason we’re in this table, to begin with?” Zen laughed as he embraced Lena.

He then whispered sweetly into her ears, “If you beat the Prince then I might reward you…”

“What reward?” Lena asked softly.

Zen showed a mysterious smile and didn’t bother to reply to her.

Lena could only grit her teeth slightly as she returned her attention to the poker table.

Sometime later, the game continued to last for another few hours or so, and surprisingly, Lena managed to swoop the entire table.

“U-Unbelievable… I actually got smoked that hard?” The Prince held a complicated expression as he glanced at Lena and Zen.

“Were you two a reincarnation of the god of gambler by any chance?” He asked.

Zen laughed heartily as he shook his head. “If Lena was the god of gambler then by now, you wouldn’t even be able to have your clothes fully dressed.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“It means that if Lena was the true god of gambler, you would be so poor to even afford to wear clothes.”

The Prince facepalmed as he twitched his mouth. “You are really an amusing man.”

“Right back at you.”

“Anyway, I had my fun here and I should leave now. Otherwise, my attendants will be nagging me for a long time.” The Prince said.

“See ya later then,” Zen waved goodbye, not caring at the slightest that he’s leaving.

His action dumbfounded the Prince.

“You haven’t even gotten my name and I’m a royalty…” The Prince said.

And he continued, “Don’t you want to try to interact more with me and get closer to royalties?”

“I’m not into men nor do I care about royalty.” Zen shrugged his shoulders.

“I came here solely to bring a new experience for Lena and nothing much,” he added.

The Prince became more intrigued by the attitude of Zen as he nodded his head.

“You can call me Carl Answorth,” The Prince, Carl Answorth said with a smile on his face.

“Zen Von Henning,” Zen replied.

“Nice to meet you and if there are other chances, we shall meet again,” Carl Answorth said as he walked away.

Meanwhile, Zen returned his focus at the poker table and glanced at Lena.

“Do you still want to continue playing poker or going somewhere else?” Zen asked gently.

Lena pondered for a moment before nodding her head.

“Let’s leave already. I won enough today and I doubt there will be anyone else willing to bet with me.” Lena said as she pointed at the empty seats in front of her.

Since she had practically won everyone’s money today, no one else dared to sit at the same table as Lena.

Zen nodded his head.

“Then let’s get something to eat,” Zen suggested.

“Yeah, I just realized I’m starving a bit from the excitement I had.”

Sometime later, Zen left Dragon Gambling Den with Lena.

Of course, the security guards there gladly paid their utmost respect in bidding them farewell when they left.

“Their attitudes are really obnoxious,” Lena pouted as she could remember the first security guard’s attitude toward them when they first entered inside.

Zen smirked as he held his hand around her waist. “It’s just the norms of the society where the rich will be respected while the poor will be treated like dirt.”

“Agreed… if it weren’t for your influence, I doubt they would just let us leave without finding trouble with us.”

“You are actually pretty clever, Lena.” Zen couldn’t help but compliment her.

“If I hadn’t contacted Evie and proclaimed our close relationship, we would be ambushed right about now by those people.”

Lena gasped in surprise.

“A-Are we being ambushed right now?” She asked.

Zen was rendered speechless by her amazing acting. “Alright, I know you understood my logic but you didn’t have to act so sarcastically.”

Lena stuck her tongue out in a playful mood. “My bad then, I thought you wished for me to act in awe about your calculative mind.”

“Hmm, what do you think I’m trying to do now then?” Zen asked as his hand reached for her buttocks.

However, his hand was instantly pinched by her as she glared angrily at him.

“Letting you hold my waist is already my limit. Any further and don’t blame me for being impolite.” She hissed.

Zen nodded his head.

“Anyway, let’s find a nice restaurant to dine in and proceed to our next step. Carl Answorth, let’s see how you can be a useful pawn for me.”
