Judging from Harvey’s behavior, the Islander beside him was certain that this was Harvey’s first time on the ship.She then smiled and said, “You should wager big for a million yen, Mister.”“You must be pretty lucky. You’ll definitely win!”To all those who were present, a million yen didn’t seem much.There must be something wrong for this lady to encourage Harvey in such a way.The others looked at Harvey with the manner of one who was looking forward to an entertaining show. Harvey did not mind their mocking looks, and threw his million yen chip on the table with a delighted grin.“I’ll listen to the pretty lady. I’ll wager big!”The spectators around him exchanged glances, grinning. They did not follow Harvey’s wager.The enchanting dealer, a woman just as beautiful, flashed the players a breathtaking smile. “Please finalize your bets.”She opened the lid of the dice cup, showing all the dice inside.“Four, five, and six. Fifteen in total! Big!”Two million yen worth
After earning millions of yen worth of chips, Harvey became the center of attention.Those who followed Harvey’s wager were also making profit. Everyone began thinking of Harvey as an insanely lucky person.The people who lost money, on the other hand, regretted betting against Harvey.Many women, whose faces were caked with elegant makeup, glanced at Harvey, thinking of him as some sort of rich heir. If they clung to a man like him, they would surely gain a lot of benefits! “Keep going, keep going! Babe, what do you think we should wager on this time?”Harvey laughed wildly, arrogance written all over his face.The Islander smiled.“You must be really lucky, Mister. You should just go in for the kill. Go all in on Triples.”“Your winnings will be increased twenty-four fold if you win wagering Triples.”“You’ll be able to take 1.2 billion with you…”She gave Harvey a coy look as she spoke.“And me with it…”“Right, I’ll listen to you! All in Triples!”Harvey put all his c
The crowd was going wild.After putting all fifty million yen on betting on Triples, Harvey unleashed the full extent of his enthusiasm.His hands slammed on the table furiously.“Triples! Triples! Come on!” Harvey yelled.The Islander accompanying him giggled coyly.“I’m sure it’ll be another Triples!”The people around them burst out laughing at those words. They were certain that Harvey was as good as dead.To be fooled by the Islander, he really was a complete moron!Logically speaking, Harvey should’ve stopped when he won fifteen million yen.Yet he still continued. To top it off, he put all his money on Triples!This could be considered a legendary blunder. Harvey was digging his own grave!The dealer glared at Harvey with her long and narrow eyes. After a moment, she chuckled.“Please finalize your bets, Mister.”“I’m about to open the dice cup!”The crowd held their breath at her declaration. They stared at the table closely, curious. The dealer opened the lid,
“You’re planning to wager more than a billion yen. Right, Harvey?”“According to the rules here, the maximum amount you’re allowed to wager in the hall is a billion yen. If you want to wager more, you’d have to play in the VIP lounge.”“You can play anything you want there. Dice, Blackjack, Dominoes, Mahjong, anything you want…”Before the dealer could say anything in response, Sakura had already walked down from the second floor. There was no emotion on her face, but the hint of rage in her eyes was apparent.Harvey slammed the table furiously.“What gives you the right to tell me to move?!” Harvey exclaimed arrogantly.“I think this table brings me good luck!”“As long as I’m playing on this table, I’ll be able to win every single game!”“How dare you call me off the table as soon as you get here? Are you trying to lure me to the VIP lounge so you can get rid of me because you can’t afford to lose?”Harvey was acting very cautiously. The crowd’s eyes lit up as soon as they
“Alright. How would you like to play, Sir York?”“Do you still want to go all in, or would you like to wager in another way?”Aya shook the dice cup in her hand, then slammed it furiously on the table.Harvey chuckled.“Since there’s another dealer now, of course I’m going to play with you slowly.”“But it’s pretty boring to keep wagering just a hundred million.”“This time, I’ll wager one billion yen!”So saying, Harvey pushed one billion yen worth of chips forward.The crowd went wild. Nobody expected Harvey towager this much money after a new dealer was assigned. The two had not even played with each other yet.This could not be described as generosity.It seemed Harvey did not even care about the money.The women who previously couldn’t care less about Harvey were now filled with affection for him. In their hearts, he was suddenly the Prince Charming of their dreams.Aya subconsciously glanced at Sakura for a brief moment. Although she had taken control of the table jus
“The odds are twenty-four to one!”“Simply put, I won another twenty-four billion yen this round.”Harvey pinched the Islander’s face casually.“You really are my lucky goddess, babe!”“Don’t be scared. If you roll a few more Triples for me, I promise to buy you your freedom. I’ll even give you a few billion yen as well! You’ll be the top dog in an instant!”The Islander froze at Harvey’s words. Immediately after, her face bloomed with excitement.If Harvey spoke the truth, then he could change her fate in a blink of an eye!The other guests were exhilarated as well. Harvey managed to get three Triples in a row, after all!Harvey’s luck was clearly godly!Everyone could tell that he was a newcomer!If everyone followed Harvey’s wagers, they would surely make a fortune!Aya’s expression had turned wretched. Although she knew what numbers she rolled on the dice, she didn’t expect Harvey to guess correctly.She pushed a whole stack of chips to Harvey wordlessly.“Fine skill,
Harvey completely ignored Sakura’s horrible expression, and instead flashed a smile at Aya.“You’re good at rolling dice, but I’m also good at guessing your mind.”“Look. At the end of the day, gambling is just a psychological battle.”“Since I can guess what’s in your mind, that means you’re no match for me.”“Unless you cheat, there’s absolutely no way of you winning.”“How about this? If you grovel in front of me and call me Daddy, I’ll stop playing and let you off the hook.”“You…!”Aya was shaking in anger. She immediately grabbed the dice cup and shook it furiously without saying another word.This time, her speed was much, much faster than everything before. A loud bang resounded, and the cup landed right on the table once again.The sound of dice dissipated in an instant.Aya glared at Harvey.“Place your bets!” Aya exclaimed coldly.Harvey chuckled and touched his chips on the table.“There’s no point playing around anymore,” Harvey said, smiling pleasantly. “I’
“I’m incapable?”Harvey burst out laughing.“Have you even tried going against me on your own, Ms. Miyamoto?! How would you know?!”“Don’t you know that men like me are incapable of being incapable?!”Harvey snapped his fingers.Sakura chuckled coldly.“Judging from your looks, I don’t even need to try fighting you to know that you’re incapable, Sir York.” Sakura said, disdain clear on her face.“Is that so?”Harvey laughed again, and tapped on the table lightly.Following his movements, a die soundlessly turned into dust.And then, the second one…Then, the third…The crowd was dumbfounded. Sakura’s face was frozen solid.At this, the crowd burst into excited murmurs. “Four…”“Five…”“Six…”“Fifteen total! Big!”The guests were all shocked. Those who had ridiculed Harvey before froze, feeling as though they were suddenly slapped in the face.Sakura felt her strength sapping out of her body. She was horrified.She could not believe what she was seeing. There were o
"I'll give you ten minutes to walk out of there without your clothes on! If you do that, I won't kill anymore of your bodyguards. If you're still not here in ten minutes, then I'm sorry, but the flames will consume you. I'll remember to visit you at your grave next year!" Sora laughed strangely after that.Everyone who heard his laughter could only feel a chill in their bones as they felt disgusted. Mandy's expression became even darker. She did not refuse him immediately, though. While she knew he was playing a game of cat and mouse, those ten minutes might just be enough to save them.-At the same time. Outside of the manor. Sora and his group of confidantes had already arrived at the entrance of the manor. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the terrace. After he waved his hands, his confidante spread out and sealed the remaining entrances.Next to Sora was a swordsman with a mustache. His eyes were full of spirit. It was obvious that he was an elite, the kind who could crush al
"Watch out!" It was at this time when Seven suddenly pulled Mandy over to the side, as his expression darkened. At the same time, one of the pieces of ballistic glass shook and fell on the floor. Then, bolts that seemed like rain stormed into the terrace, falling right where Mandy was standing.If it was not because of Seven's quick actions, Mandy might have already become a human pincushion. She was immediately covered in cold sweat. While she had personally grown and become a successful businesswoman, she had never been in many of these kinds of life and death situations.Whoosh!It was as if the people outside had noticed an opening, they continuously fired the Repeating Crossbow. As they did that, one of the bodyguards who could not dodge in time collapsed on the ground as he held his thigh. A bolt pierced through his thigh, and he immediately lost his ability to fight.Mandy quickly said, "Quick! Drag him over! It's too dangerous over there!"The two bodyguards trembled, and
"Ms. Mandy, you should run now! Run from the back! I can still hold them up for about 15 minutes!" Seven said in a bitter voice as he peeked outside from the door's gap from inside the manor. "If you don't, we won't be able to escape once they rush in. We're almost out of ammo. If we don't fight our way out, we'll all end up dead!"Mandy hesitated a little when she saw how Seven was becoming somewhat concerned and said, "Sure. We'll leave from the back door. But they're here for me. I can't escape. All of you should go and I'll cover you!"Mandy's expression was resolute. Seven was slightly stunned before saying, "Don't joke about something like that, Ms. Mandy. While I'm not one of your followers, but as a bodyguard of the Jeans of Mor'du, there's no way I can escape before you have safely retreated. If I do that, not only will I be unable to face the family, but I also won't be able to face myself and stay in this world!"All the bodyguards exchanged looks and said, "That's right,
The young man in the white suit was not that old. He was at least in his mid-twenties. However, his cheeks were somewhat red. It was obvious that years of excessive drinking and womanizing have left him too depleted for anything to be able to help him. But even then, he still looked in front with greed and obsession, as if wanting to push the woman in the manor to the ground and tear her apart.It was obvious that this man was the scion of the Origin Sword Style, Sora Yamamoto.Sora did not think much about the death of the Origin Sword Style elites. He did not even feel much about their death, as if their death had nothing to do with him."Sir, it's not that the woman is strong. It's the simple fact that no one expected her to have the Royal Flush with her… And she has plenty of it too. From the results of us testing her, the woman isn't saving the Royal Flush for something else when she had her bodyguards use them. I suspect that she had an unlimited supply of it.""You idiot!" S
"Too weak," Harvey sighed. In the next instant, he lifted his right foot and planted it on a broken piece of rock. Instantly, the rock shot out and headed straight to Sverker's throat. It was obvious that Harvey did not wish to leave the Origin Sword Style's number one elite alive."You fool…!" Sverker's entire soul was shuddering as he could feel Death coming for him. He let out a roar and all the energy within his body started to flow, wanting to use that to stop Harvey's attack. However, his thoughts were faster than he could act.The moment he wanted to fight back, he could feel the taste of blood in his mouth. The small rock had already pierced through his throat. In that instant, Sverker's thoughts instantly stopped as he lost the strength to struggle. Then, he collapsed on the ground just like that.There was anger, despair, and even doubt in his eyes.He could not believe that as an elite of the Origin Sword Style, as one of the few most powerful men in Sky Plane, how he en
When the palm strike was going to reach Sverker, Harvey changed his palm strike into a finger strike. He flicked his finger at the edge of the blade.Clank!"Gah!"Sverker seemed shocked as his body shook. There was even blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was in a terrible state as he took a few steps back."Mr. Sverker!" All the women cried out at the same time, with shocked expressions. They could not believe that not only did Harvey manage to easily block the legendary Three Slashes, but most importantly he was able to force Sverker some distance back with just the flick of his finger!He was beyond terrifying!"Damn you, kid! Do you think this is my full power?" Sverker's temper was at boiling point after the continuous failures as he gritted his teeth. "I will send you to Hell with all three slashes fused into one!""I better be the one sending you to Hell. I'm already bored with your sword technique," replied Harvey casually. Before Sverker could even attack,
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
