The Lady Wants To Rest - Chapter 33

‘Next time, I should make sure not to bring Marie.’

Looking at how she grew excited quickly, she was the type of person who should never gamble. If she started gambling, it felt as though she would lose all she owned.

In any case, Marie and I walked around the casino playing this game and that.

Since I didn’t use any tricks, we won some and lost some, and slowly earned more and more money. Soon we had gathered about 200 cena more.

“Wow! Already 200 cena more. At this rate, we’ll become extremely rich!”

As Marie’s eyes sparkled, I held in a giggle and smiled.

‘There’s no way anyone can become wealthy through gambling.”

Throughout my thousand years, I’ve never heard of a legendary gambler who has become wealthy.

Enjoying it sparingly on rare occasions is one thing, but the result of gambling was always one’s ruin.

In any case, I, who thought I’d earned enough wealth, stood up from the dice table.

“Oh, you’re not going to gamble anymore? Even though you’re earning money?”

“We have to play a different game now.”

“What game?”

I leisurely watched the people concentrating on gambling games around us.

“Stripping a scammer of their wealth.”

“Ah!”

Marie’s eyes grew wide and she spoke in a voice that suggested she was afraid.

“T, that do we have to do that? Can’t we just continue to play dice like right now? O, of course, I trust Milady, but….”

Marie appeared to be as scared of gambling tricksters as one would be when standing in front of a tiger.

Of course, she was worried because she didn’t know that the person at risk of bankruptcy was not me, but those scammers.

“Since we’ve come all the way here, we should at least win big once.”

“Win big?”

“Indeed, we can’t earn a lot if we continue playing games like dice that earn us only a little bit of money at a time.”

“S, still….”

“How about 3,000 cena? Let’s earn just that much.”

Marie froze like a statue at the mention of 3,000 cena.

3,000 cena was more than enough for an average family to live without any worries for more than a year.

‘After I earn money, I’ll never leave my bed ever again.’

After having decided thus, I looked around for my prey. Of course, by prey, I was referring to those tricksters.

‘In such a big casino as this one, there’s no way there wouldn’t be any scamming gamblers.’

I walked around pretending to spectate as I observed the people gambling.

‘Not this man, nor that woman. This man’s not one either.’

And after scrutinizing for how long?

At a table located near the center, a noise that sounded as if a building was collapsing resounded throughout the entire casino.

“Wow! Bravo! How could a four card appear with this timing?”

“I thought it would be a full house?”

“Just how much have you earned up till now?”

When I walked over discreetly, a young man was pulling chips towards himself.

With a little exaggeration, there was a small mountain of chips gathered in front of the man.

“Oh, ho?”

It caught my eye. Something smelled. The smell of a scammer.

I stood still as I scrutinized the man.

Now in his early to mid-twenties? He was a very handsome youth.

To be specific, he had a very sweet aura?

I’m not sure if the word ‘sweet’ perfectly fits the description of the man, but it really was like it.

Dark blue eyes that seemed to contain the oceans, soft eyes, and dark blonde hair cut short.

The smile that rested on his mouth was leisurely and relaxed.

A man who was sweet yet softly seductive.

Without a doubt, a single gesture from the man would cause many young aristocratic ladies to run over with a hypnotized expression. Just like how a flower attracts bees.

‘It’s a sinful face. In addition, he’s a gambling scammer. I should punish him.”

I was certain that this man was using tricks while gambling.

It was the sense of a fellow trickster. It was impossible to bring in that much money in a normal game.
