Egret

Chapter 25. Kyrie

Werner, who allocated all the game money, smiled and explained the type of game.

“It's a good game for beginners to enjoy. A card game to test your luck, a speed game with agility to life, a strategy game to kill and kill your opponent, a land grabbing game, and a deduction game to catch the culprit by gathering hints. Which one do you like best? ”

“I don't want to get in trouble. ”

Gaya nailed him straight ahead.

It was a blue dragon that bumped into my body once I was in trouble. He hated games no matter how complicated he thought they were.

“Let's play a game of luck. ”

“No, then isn't that fair? You have to go... God... ”

Baikal, who wanted to ask if he could read the celestial instruments because he was a watermelon, changed his mind and looked at café owner Werner and said something fishy.

“I heard you're a man of God. ”

“What am I? ”

“You said you were going to Elisium to become a priest soon. ”

“What?”

“Anyway, I recommend fair reasoning and land grabbing games. ”

Regardless of his willingness to fall asleep, Gaya, who had become a reserve priest, shut up with an outrageous expression.

Werner, the owner of a busy cafe, took out the games they had chosen, gave a brief explanation, and disappeared to meet other guests. Instead, following the teachings of a semi-professional vicar who had come to the game cafe so much that he was a regular, they gradually learned the game.

They were geniuses in academia and swordsmanship, but the game was an area they had never encountered, so they were quite agitated to adapt.

The game rules and tactical strategies for winning were easy to learn, but the problem was psychological.

Edan and Cristina were vulnerable to tricks or tricks that could be used casually by their peers to dig traps and hit their backs.

Edan, who always behaves straight like a fir tree, and Cristina, who thinks she can't be dignified, are overturned every time in a strategic game that needs to be flexible.

“Eyes to eyes, poop to poop. You can't keep asking me that honestly? ”

“…… this vile man. ”

“Yes, you have to be mean. Because if you win the game, it's a long shot. ”

As soon as he was able to mock Edan, Baikal rolled the dice with a smile.

“Argh! I took over this again. Build a landmark?”

“ ……. ”

The game they now play was to buy land, build buildings and become the world's first sign.

Edan was silent with a futile expression as the city he had built flew away.

With that in mind, Baikal posted a new building there.

“This city is mine now. I can do whatever I want. ”

"Wow, did you see that? I can't leave him with politics.

My opinion is the opposite. Wouldn't it be great if we left it to someone like that to develop the country? I'm going to eat a little insult.

Uni and Kani, sitting on Judas' shoulders, gathered like local anacs.

It was Baikal who was currently at the forefront of the game, and Coldzi was under intensive attack by the deputy, and Ethan took over. Judas was just keeping a flat, and Cristina was steadily conquering her own land to collect her assets.

‘By the way, I'm surprised. I thought you'd lose your first game. ’

Baikal teases Edan and thinks Judas is clean.

It's not that I can't adapt, but my grades aren't as impressive as I thought.

Friends who graduated from school together never saw him fail first place. But, of course, there were occasions when people deliberately lagged behind for purposes they didn't even think of.

‘No way...? ’

Unlike Baikal, Judas was playing his own game. It was fun to leave winning and watch each other's numbers in the same situation.

So even though I lost, my calm smile didn't leave.

And there was a crowd watching him quietly.

It was a diagonally situated table from Judas's group, with a similar age of members in their late teens to early twenties and the same number of people in five.

“…… What do you think? ”

“They're all sandwiches. ”

“One general who knows how to play a game and four beginners. No players.”

They swallowed their mouths like a herd of hyenas who were aiming for a weak, young beast.

It was a group of rogues who were quite famous for bad vagina nearby. All the gambling in the game cafe was a healthy culture of playing fake money, but there was also a real gambling board that was poking through the gap.

The crowd watching Judas now lured the game beginners and took them to the real gambling rink to eat them naked.

It was Judas' group who cared about going out, changing their hair and getting dressed easily, but the luxury costumes they were wearing and the noble smell of stealing moves could not be concealed.

The rogues who sat around the table for a while and watched the trend eventually set them as today's target.

I thought that the tentacles developed through long and long haystacks would search for nobles who are wealthy and who are not yet familiar with the world.

The problem was that I didn't even imagine I would be with the Crown Prince.

“Hehe, she's beautiful. It's like a doll for sale in an expensive workshop. ”

“Crazy bastard, you can't touch a woman. Let's just rip off the beginners' money. ”

“Don't worry. Do you have any idea what those women look like? I just love being treated like one. You must be tired of being so sweet because you treat everyone so well. ”

The rogues laughed at each other without even knowing they were trying to touch the lion's nose hairs.

“Look closely. It's useless to look at it so selflessly. ”

As the man who targeted Cristina pretended to point at the group with his finger, the other rogues looked at him with an expectant young gaze.

Just before the bankruptcy, she could not get the money out, and her eyes trembled.

“Are you bankrupt, Cristina? ”

“ ……. ”

“Bankruptcy? You don't have any money, do you? Yes? ”

Baikal, the owner of the big land, unrelentingly stooped and raised her about. Even Edan, who was standing next to me, had a crunchy expression.

It was the moment Cristina choked, and then she became obsessed.

“Do you want to use this? ”

“ ……! ”

“It's not embarrassing to borrow money from the game. ”

Judas gave me my share of the game money.

I didn't seem to have worked very hard, but there were a lot of game money that I collected by buying prominent land without cooking tickets and building buildings.

It was Cristina who would have kicked her in pride if someone else had been kind to her, but her reaction to Judas' anomalies changed like flipping her palm.

“I'm... sorry. ”

She shrugs her head, accepting the game money. Yes, I couldn't hide the redness of the cheeks.

The spectators who saw it lifted their heads together.

“…… I don't think so? ”

“I see. Does anyone like him, Dem? ”

“Well, that's not it! Favor is an illusion, asshole! ”

A man who denies reality whilst roaring stood up at the table first.

The rest of the rogues, who were doing countless things, stood up and followed him. Whether fortunate or unhappy, they approached, but none of Judas' group reacted.

It was the moment when the man who claimed that 'the woman who stole it should just treat her’ grabbed Cristina's shoulders roughly while she was burning her spirit.

“Wait...? ”

Whip, bang!

In an instant, my vision turned upside down. It was before I took it out without a word.

From the back to the ground, the man felt a shortness of breath and even shed tears. I saw blue hair bending with blurred vision. It was like a color reminiscent of the sea, but the upper part could not be covered in a wide outdoor hat.

A cool voice plunged through the sinking hairline.

“Don't touch it the way you want. It's rude.”

“Argh.”

Lately, a panic-mixed cough popped out.

I wondered where the strong power came from in the body of a girl who only seemed weak to go to the sky's lemon dress.

A young man, the oldest and foremost, quickly reassessed their group.

‘When a precious housewife comes to a place like this without a escort, there's a reason. ’

Whether she's a skilled group or a well-trained unmanned person. Whatever it was, it was a bad conclusion.

In fact, even if I had touched Ethan in the group because I couldn't, I wouldn't have reacted this much, but it was the bad guys' mistake to touch Cristina because she was a woman.

The leader raises a fallen companion and raises his hand hurriedly.

“No, no. I wasn't trying to argue. Don't get me wrong.”

“What's the point? ”

Edan stood up. Only then did the faces of the rogues who found the two swords on his waist become darker.

Anyway, the aim was not to fight them, so the chief young man smiled and crossed words with as many good people as possible.

“Guys, don't you want to play the right game? ”

“Friend?”

Edan just asked me again, but somehow I felt like I was bluffing.

The five rogues who faced the ignorant black pupil flickered at the same time. After a brief silence, the young man speaks again in a rhetorical tone.

“Well, everyone is friends in the capital, Eli, who is being cared for under the great grace of the Emperor. Aren't you, my friends? ”

“Cancer! Not really. ”

“But I'm a little ashamed to say that the one who got it from a woman is a friend. ”

The crowd approached the group and laughed at their disgraced colleagues.

“Anyway, I wanted to share some good information. Don't you want to go to grown-ups' playgrounds instead of these kids' playgrounds? ”

They took the bottom line out. Edan narrows his glabella a little and asks again.

“Adults' playground? ”

“Yeah, it's a hot playground. ”

A young man clandestinely offered to put his hands on the table with a natural attitude so as not to get caught by the cafe owner.

“A real gambling game. What do you think?”

“ ……. ”

As soon as he heard that, Edan had to draw his sword and punish them for a while.

What they said meant was illegal gambling. It's not a pure gambling game with gaming money as it is now, it's a gambling parlor where real money comes and goes. Gambling over a certain amount of cash was illegal.

“It's not what anyone tells you. We only invite people of all levels. ”

A rogue flies a wink and draws a circle that means money with his finger. In short, it meant inviting only those who had money to gamble.

Nobles are money, that is.

The noble who once tasted gambling easily fell in love with it. Even a wealthy commoner could not pour as much money as a nobleman. There was already illegal gambling among the nobles in public, as there was a large number of establishments from the capital to the city.

Even if I didn't get caught like that, I was less likely to get caught because I couldn't even stab myself in the top line as long as my name was already on the participant list.

Illegal gambling centers were so organized that they could not eradicate it by catching one.

“Real gambling is not like these kids' pranks. If you experience it, you will definitely be addicted to the flavor. ”

Edan does not act first, but looks back at the Lord.

Judas was listening to their story with one hand on the table and his chin twisted.

It was like a relaxed look when playing a game.

“What do you think? If I miss this chance, I might never go again." ”

The rogue was a bully who flirted with naive children, giving out candy without pleasure.

Judas nodded lightly as he looked at them.

“Oh, I can count on that, but I doubt it. ”

“Huh? We're not suspicious people..... ”

“I've never been born before. ”

The young man's back, which was about to be stabbed, was cut off.

Judas was still fluttering with his chin open.

“I've never been addicted to anything. ”

Everyone's gaze was drawn to him. I was silent in front of a golden pupil that looked like a prick.
