Returning From The Magic World

Chapter 206 Secret

Anna walked faster until she arrived right beside Arthur, interrupting Carla and Bella.

However, they were actually rather panicked if she told their parents that they had come to this place.

Arthur might be able to ignore it, but that didn't apply to them.

Carla would be scolded by her mother, and so would Bella.

Therefore, they chose to remain silent.

Beside Arthur, Anna was bolder, her fingers nudging his hand, asking him to look at her.

When Arthur looked at her, she said in a low voice. "What do you think of my assistant?"

Of course, before she spoke, Arthur used invisible magic to limit her voice. He did this so that Carla and Bella would not hear.

They were magus, their hearing was sharper.

After hearing the woman's words, Arthur couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Are you really unable to stop thinking about that?" asked Arthur, he glanced at the female assistant.

Of course, if we talk about beauty, she was quite beautiful, but not the unique kind, you can find similar women in corporate offices.

"When I want something, I never stop thinking about it unless my wish is achieved," Anna replied.

"But your wishes are strange," said Arthur.

"Indeed, but what's strange for a man like you, you've fucked two famous celebrities, why can't I -- I'm also beautiful and my social status is very high."

Before Arthur could reply, Anna suddenly seemed to think of something. Right after that, she continued, "do you want to know something?"

"What?"

Arthur glanced into her eyes, finding she looked like she was about to say something very important - something he didn't know, but perhaps he needed to know.

"Hehehe!" Anna responded with a light laugh.

"It's information you couldn't possibly find except through me," she said.

"Just tell me!" Arthur didn't like seeing her beat around the bush.

Anna still didn't answer right away, she glanced back.

Her eyes were apparently on Carla so Arthur knitted his brows.

"I'm sure you want to know who that girl's father is, Isabel's daughter," Anna said, in a much quieter voice.

Arthur probably wouldn't have heard her voice clearly if it wasn't for the fact that he was a magus.

Of course, that was something that surprised him greatly. It was a mystery in their family because Isabel never wanted to say it.

"Make love to me and I'll tell you," Anna added. She smiled widely as she saw Arthur's expression which seemed to be trying to hide his surprise.

Making love might be normal for Arthur, but he would not be happy if it was for a transaction like this.

The problem was that what Anna said made sense. Even Rose wouldn't be able to find that information because it wasn't related to hacking. It was a buried secret of the past.

In the end, Arthur chose not to respond.

He wanted to focus on the matter here first. And the table he went to was a rather unique table because there was only one there.

The system at this table was to play dice against five croupiers at once. If you win, you will get 100 times the amount of your bet.

It's a game avoided by people who just want to have fun, only those who are desperate for money choose this game.

However, this was exactly what Arthur loved. In fact, he was quite familiar with this game because in the magic world there was also a similar game and he had played it several times.

He thought he could guess the number of the dice just by hearing the sound after touching the dice on each side.

"Arthur, are you sure? Playing here will make the game short-lived." Henry said as Arthur stopped his steps.

The latter replied, "There's no need for anything too long, I'll only play twice!"

Pa!

He put his 100 chips on the table.

The five croupiers standing behind the table looked at him, somewhat doubtful.

"Hehh, interesting, do you want me to add more chips?" Anna asked.

"No need!" Arthur shook his head, he really only planned to play twice.

Maybe he could bankrupt this casino, but that would just make too much noise.

After making sure Arthur agreed to the game, one of the croupiers then handed Arthur a small bowl with two dice.

The latter held the dice, recognizing them while trying to investigate if there was anything strange about them.

However, this casino seemed to be doing honest business, each of the dice turned out to be perfectly normal.

The dice in the hands of those croupiers should also be the same.

"The rules of this game are simple, whoever gets the highest number wins," said the croupier.

"Sure!" Arthur nodded and shook the bowl first and placed it on the table upside down.

Here, he really didn't need to use magic power. Just the skill of his hands was enough to make the two dice show the highest number.

Of course, he planned to use his magic power to manipulate the croupiers' dice if they happened to get the highest number.

One by one, they placed their bowls on the table.

In fact, each of them was also skillful. Although they could not make a perfect result, at least it was not too bad.

Unfortunately, Arthur could even guess the numbers of their dice just by the sound they made as they fell on the table.

No one managed to make their dice show the highest number, so now, he didn't need to use his magic.

"Let's open together," said the croupier.

Arthur then raised his bowl, following the croupier's movements.

When the numbers were revealed, the faces of the croupier and Henry froze instantly.

DING!

(Congratulations, you've won!)

The screen behind the croupiers suddenly made a sound that drew many eyes to the table.

"Great, he won the first game, how lucky," said a man who could almost be considered an old man.

"How much did he bet?" Someone else asked.

"It seems to be only 100 Euros!"

"Ah, too bad, if it was 1000 Euros, he would have gotten 100,000!"

On the other hand, Anna looked regretful.

"Arthur, you should have used all my chips, there's more than 100,000 Euros here," she said in a quite loud voice.

That sobered Henry up and he couldn't help but tremble.

'Luckily this boy still knows how to hold back,' he thought.

Of course, they would have lost big if Arthur had bet more than 100K.
