There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!-Chapter 195

Innote Underground Club.

This luxurious club's interior looked like a huge maze, filled with endless temptations.

They were the entertainment venues controlled by the largest gang in the Randil Kingdom.

Many people could get rich overnight here, or become flying people.

After passing through the winding entrance path, there would be staff who would take customers through a strict security check.

First, the club had to prevent customers from using magic cards or spells to cheat. Before entering the club, customers would be given a 【Monitoring Bracelet】, requiring them to bind their souls.

【Monitoring Bracelet】

【Category: Equipment Card】

【Grade: Blue Precious】

【Effect: When the wearer removes this equipment, or consumes mana while wearing this equipment, an alarm will be triggered】

【Note: Innote Chamber of Commerce exclusive】

Only after wearing the 【Monitoring Bracelet】 could one formally enter the business area.

And the Innote gang was also very cautious. After the customer wore it, the customer had to consume a little mana in front of the staff, trigger an alarm once, and confirm that the customer was wearing it correctly and the 【Monitoring Bracelet】 was not faulty before letting them in.

In the club, two strangely dressed people who had just passed the inspection and walked in immediately attracted everyone's attention.

They were wearing headscarves and sunglasses, white long robes, and gold-trimmed cloaks with leather shoes. It was unknown which country's style it was.

But for some reason, they had a very rich aura!

And from the chips they were holding, it could be seen that they had exchanged a full 3000 gold coins worth of chips!

Soon, they went straight to a large table for a roulette game.

It consisted of a wheel, an ivory ball, and a large table.

The rules were simple.

The wheel rotated around an axis and was divided into 21 equal-sized areas, numbered 1 to 20 and a non-numeric X.

After all players had placed their bets, the dealer would release a small ball, and the number slot where it finally stopped would be the final result.

Players could bet on a single number or a combination of numbers on the large table.

Different betting methods corresponded to different odds.

For example, if you bet 1 gold coin on odd numbers, you could win 2 gold coins.

But since there were only 10 odd numbers in the 21 areas (X is not a number), the probability of winning was 10/21.

So the winning rate was actually less than 1/2.

So from an expected value perspective, the operator was making a profit.

And if you bet 1 gold coin on a single number or letter, you could win 20 gold coins.

The probability of winning was 1/21. From an expected value perspective, the operator also had an advantage.

Although theoretically, the operator's rake rate was about 5%, the operator had many ways to cheat in the roulette.

For example, the dealer could use some small tricks to influence the direction in which the ball finally deviated to a certain extent, which led to the actual rake rate of this black-hearted club exceeding 15%.

But it didn't matter. Dekan would speak with strength and tell the Innote clan what it meant to be the king of luck.

First.

Cloix bet 1000 gold coins worth of chips on odd numbers and another 1000 gold coins worth of chips on even numbers.

This immediately drew a round of laughter from the surroundings.

This was undoubtedly sending money to the operator!

Because no matter whether the final result was odd or even, Cloix would only win 2000 gold coins!

And if the final result was the non-numeric X, then Cloix would not get a single cent!

He had spent a total of 2000 gold coins, but there was a 95.24% probability that it would remain 2000 gold coins, and a 4.76% probability that it would become 0 gold coins.

This was a strategy that was guaranteed to lose money!

It was equivalent to sending money to the Innote clan!

Just as people were laughing at Cloix, Dekan also came to place his bet.

In everyone's surprised gaze, Dekan placed 1000 gold coins worth of chips on the non-numeric X.

The limit for a single bet was 1000 gold coins.

He went all-in directly.

"Are they together? What are they trying to do?"

"Don't they know who runs this place? The dealer can't possibly let the ball land on the number X!"

If it really landed on the number X later, then Dekan would win 20,000 gold coins!

That is, twenty million coins!

This was a huge loss even for the Innote clan.

But, the Innote gang would not allow such a lucky person to be born!

"They must be foreign visitors, right?"

"These two idiots sending money, they're really stupid and rich."

The people around whispered.

The dealer was very nervous. He had rarely encountered a situation where a full 1000 gold coins were bet on a single number.

If he hadn't done his tricks and let the ball roll to X.

Then his life might be over.

Just as he was about to use his skillful little trick to influence the ball's direction far away from X.

There seemed to be a gaze from an unknown source staring at him. A strong sense of mortal danger made his back instinctively tense up.

It was as if if he dared to cheat, he would be instantly killed by some force in the next second!

As a result, the dealer's hand trembled and he lost control.

He let the ball fall normally.

He looked at the ball's direction in panic.

There was still a chance.

Because purely by luck, it was very difficult for the ball to land exactly on X!

However.

The ball seemed to be repelled by all the numbers!

It naturally rolled towards the direction of X.

In the end, the dealer could only watch with wide eyes as the ball landed steadily on X.

"How can this be??!"

The people at the big table exclaimed.

This was simply a miracle among miracles!

The dealer's eyes widened, and his face turned pale.

If such a thing happened, the Innote gang would never let him go!

Dekan sneered with an imperceptible movement.

"Idiot, still trying to cheat me."

This was the use of the bad luck curse bestowed upon Cloix by the gods.

Whenever Cloix encountered a situation that required luck or probability, his luck would be extremely bad.

For example, when using cards with "probabilistic properties," he would also preferentially draw the situation with the worst luck for himself.

The best example was the last time when Cloix used 【Bandit Goblin】 to steal Isabel's cards.

As a result, before he had stolen almost all of Isabel's other items, Cloix had never stolen a purple magic card.

The more valuable the card, the harder it was for Cloix to steal it.

In Dekan's series of experiments, Cloix had never once been able to steal a purple card from someone using 【Bandit Goblin】.

At best, he could only steal a blue card first.

And the test results of the lottery game were the same.

So if Cloix bet 1000 gold coins at once.

It was almost impossible to successfully win 2000 and make a big profit!

So, by betting on both odd and even numbers, Cloix had greatly reduced the probability of these two situations occurring.

The ball was almost bound to roll towards X!

So the probability of Dekan hitting X and getting this 20-fold prize was extremely high!

The two good brothers playing this kind of roulette game together was like withdrawing money.

Soon, a few very unpleasant-looking staff members came and took away the "derelict" dealer.

After a while.

A very senior-looking manager came and completed the settlement for this round in place of the dealer.

Then he stood at the big table, as if he was going to personally take over the dealer's work at this table.

Although this old manager looked gray-haired, his body was strong and his back was straight. From the extremely respectful attitude of the other staff towards him, it was likely that this old manager's status was not low.

A new round began.

However, Dekan and Cloix showed no intention of leaving.

It seemed they wanted to continue!

This made the old manager's eyes show a hint of surprise.

These two guys didn't know when to quit, but insisted on seeking death?

Even if they could really win again, would the Innote clan let them go?

Cloix still strangely bet 1000 gold coins worth of chips on odd and even numbers each, just like before.

And Dekan also unexpectedly bet 1000 gold coins on X.

This time, many curious people also followed Dekan and bet on X.

Although they were worried that it was a scam set up by the club, they couldn't help but give it a try.

So the total amount of money bet on X alone suddenly reached more than one thousand five hundred gold coins.

And in this round, there was actually a young man with pitch-black spiky hair who slammed 1000 gold coins on the number 10 opposite X.

"Heh, I am the king of luck."

He exuded the domineering aura of a strong person, with no intention of holding back at all. His words were extremely arrogant.

It was obvious that he had not intended to play like this at first.

But after seeing Dekan, he was like meeting a worthy opponent and wanted to make a big gamble.

This gave the old manager a bit of a headache.

Now he not only had to prevent the ball from rolling to X, but also from rolling to the number 10.

After the betting time was over.

The old manager also prepared to start this round.

However, just as this old manager was about to do some tricks, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling cold!

It made him even have a hallucination for a moment, as if there was a pair of huge eyes staring at him from behind.

When the old manager came to his senses, he found that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

And this sense of oppression came from the black-haired young man who had bet on the number 10.

The other party was staring at his hand intently.

The old manager instantly understood that although this black-haired young man looked arrogant, he indeed had the capital to be proud of. This was a terrifying master.

Once the old manager cheated, he would probably be choked by this black-haired young man in the next second.

The old manager took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Then he honestly did not do any tricks and started this game.

Everything would depend on luck.

However.

This time, the ball was still repelled by the numbers and rolled towards X.

"..."

The whole place was silent at first, and then everyone cheered.

This time, the price the Innote clan had to pay was not only the 20,000 gold coins for Dekan, but also more than ten thousand gold coins to compensate the retail investors!

The black-haired young man frowned and stared at the table, then looked at Dekan and Cloix again.

Dekan met the black-haired young man's gaze through his sunglasses.

There was no communication between them.

Then Dekan had no intention of wasting any more time.

He just completed the settlement with the old manager.

Just as he picked up the chip box and was about to go to the counter to exchange for money and leave.

"Gentlemen, the amount you need to exchange is too large. Please come to our VIP room to discuss it in detail."

Soon, a few people dressed as black attendants came to the club and stopped Dekan and Cloix.

"They're so stupid! They should have left after winning once!"

"They're too greedy!"

Everyone present knew.

The Innote family was not going to let these two go!

They might have let them go after winning once, but after winning twice, the Innote family would not suffer such a loss!

"Alright, no problem."

However, Dekan just showed a kind smile and nodded.

The noble has finally arrived!

I was waiting for you to make a move!

Once you make a move, Dekan will have a reason to rob you openly!

At that time, including medical expenses, mental distress fees, etc., it won't be something that can be settled with a few tens of thousands of gold coins!

"Wait."

PART 2

Just as Dekan was about to happily go with these people.

A voice from behind called out to them.

Dekan turned around and found that it was the black-haired young man who had just lost 1000 gold coins.

"Honestly give them the gold coins, not a single cent less."

The black-haired young man said in an absolutely commanding tone.

However, he did not seem to be a member of the Innote gang.

Because the other members of the Innote clan all started to give him a death glare.

"Do you want to come with us too?"

A sturdy guard walked up to the black-haired young man and asked coldly.

"You're courting death."

The black-haired young man just raised his hand with an invisible speed and gently squeezed, breaking the sturdy man's hand.

A miserable scream instantly resounded throughout the club.

The other few guards instantly took out their weapons and spell cards, preparing to finish off this black-haired young man.

However, the black-haired young man just smiled contemptuously, and in less than three seconds, he had knocked down all these attendants.

What was terrifying was that he had not used any magic cards at all.

He had simply relied on his own monster-like physical ability to deal with these people.

Tearing apart summoned beasts with his bare hands, taking magic with his face.

Dekan frowned slightly.

Although he didn't know why this guy was standing up for him.

But this guy had indeed affected his plan.

He was thinking about whether to use 【Three Corpses Berserk】 to make the situation even more chaotic if the two sides started to fight later.

Then he could take advantage of the chaos and still achieve his goal.

"Don't move!"

The old manager shouted, stopping the club's staff.

Then he looked at the black-haired young man with a solemn expression and said: "We will handle things according to the rules."

The old manager knew very well that this black-haired young man could not be provoked easily. Even he, who had seen it all, could not see through the depths of this black-haired young man.

If they really fought to the death, even if they could wait for support from the headquarters, everyone in the club would probably be slaughtered by this black-haired young man.

Then there would be nothing left.

Soon, the staff brought 37 magic crystal coins and handed them to Dekan.

One such magic crystal coin could be exchanged for 1000 gold coins. As a currency that was generally not circulated on the market, it was mainly used for transactions between major nobles.

Compared to its actual circulation function, its commemorative significance was more important.

Dekan counted the magic crystal coins in the small suitcase, his expression full of annoyance.

He could have earned more...

It was all because of this meddler, and this cowardly old manager.

Forget it, contentment brings happiness.

Dekan decided to call it a day.

He wasn't Morion, and he didn't have to clean out someone's entire fortune to be satisfied.

"As the price for helping you, continue to play a few more rounds with me."

The black-haired young man called out to Dekan, who was about to leave, again.

In the previous game, he had lost to Dekan and was a little unconvinced.

He wanted to have a formal showdown with Dekan.

"No."

Dekan replied in a flat tone.

Although this person had helped him in the wrong way.

But Dekan felt that this guy at least had good intentions.

So he was not willing to scam him out of his money.

"If you don't gamble with me, it wouldn't be too much for me to knock you down like I did just now, right?"

"Hmph. Then even if I agree to gamble with you, what if you lose and continue to threaten us like this?"

Hearing this, Dekan became interested.

This person was a bit funny.

He clearly didn't want to scam him anymore, but he still insisted on sending him money.

The black-haired young man: "I always admit my losses. If I were greedy for money, I wouldn't be so troublesome."

Dekan: "Alright then, but I don't want to play too complicated. How about a pure luck competition?"

The black-haired young man: "No problem."

So the two of them started the simplest game of drawing number cards.

Whoever had the larger number would win.

The old manager of the club took them to the VIP room and personally dealt the cards for them.

Since the old manager knew that neither side was ordinary, he was particularly cautious, showing the professionalism of a senior dealer.

However.

After more than ten rounds, Dekan and the black-haired young man had their wins and losses.

But Dekan won far more than he lost.

It was as if the goddess of luck was standing by Dekan's side.

It was obvious that in terms of pure luck, Dekan seemed to have completely defeated the black-haired young man.

The black-haired young man was very sure that neither the dealer nor the other party had cheated!

Because any small movement would not escape his dynamic vision and magic perception!

"How is that possible... Is there really such a lucky person in this world? Do you have the blessing of a god?"

The black-haired young man felt that he couldn't understand.

Even if it was a god in charge of luck, the blessing couldn't be so outrageous!

This level of luck interference, unless it was a god in charge of bad luck who wanted to curse a soul for all eternity, would it be possible to curse a person at all costs, so that this level of luck change could be produced on them!

"No, just a passing honest person."

Dekan said lightly.

"Damn it..."

The black-haired young man bit his teeth tightly.

He was not willing to lose on pure luck at all!

"Continue?"

Dekan asked with a light laugh, a hint of contempt in his smile.

"Continue!!"

The black-haired young man did not hesitate to raise the stakes.

This time, even without Cloix's intervention, Dekan's luck was still a bit strange.

The reason was that he had performed a ritual in advance.

Dekan and Cloix had signed a betting agreement before coming.

【Party A: Cloix】

【Party B: Dekan】

【Party B will provide Party A with permanent card-making support, but the amount Party A needs to pay Party B is the total amount of gold coins Party B acquires today.】

For example, if Dekan earned 1 gold coin today, Cloix would need to pay Dekan 1 gold coin.

So the more Dekan earned, the more Cloix lost.

Dekan had been seriously doing research, studying how to utilize the god's bad luck curse on Cloix to the extreme.

So he had his research result—the betting agreement.

This kind of betting agreement with a luck element could indeed link Dekan's and Cloix's luck to a certain extent.

But the strength of the link depended on the fairness of the agreement.

If this was a meaningless fake contract, then their luck could not actually be linked.

Only when the fairness of the agreement and the actual impact it produced were greater, would the linking effect be stronger.

If Dekan wanted to get a "chance to earn an unlimited amount of gold coins" from Cloix, he also needed to pay an equal price.

Obviously, Dekan's lifelong card-making service was also of unlimited value and it was difficult to estimate how many gold coins it was worth.

So the agreement had a certain degree of fairness.

Then under this agreement, for every 1 gold coin Dekan earned, it was equivalent to Cloix having to spend 1 more gold coin.

So Cloix's strong bad luck would lead to Cloix losing more gold coins in luck-based activities, and Dekan would also, due to Cloix's bad luck, easily earn more gold coins in luck-based activities.

Today, even the god of bad luck would be severely squeezed by Dekan.

...

The sky outside was getting darker and darker.

In the underground club, the amount of money between Dekan and the black-haired young man was also getting larger and larger.

Until the black-haired young man finally had no more money.

Dekan sneered and shook his head, asking the owner to help him exchange the gold coins for magic crystal coins as much as possible, then put them in his suitcase and prepared to leave.

"Wait!"

The black-haired young man sat opposite the card table and shouted with an unwilling expression.

"What, are you going to renege on your debt?"

Dekan asked with a smile.

"I have no more money, but I still have magic cards. I can use all the cards except the Epic ones as a bet!"

"Hmm?"

The black-haired young man quickly took out some purple rare magic cards with excellent effects and spread them out on the table.

Dekan looked at these cards and couldn't help but frown.

This guy's rank was really not low.

And his cards were either equipment or physical enhancement-type spells, obviously of the same style as Cornelia's.

"You can leave if you want. I admit my loss! But if you're still willing to gamble with me, I'll accompany you to the end!"

Seeing the black-haired young man's both impulsive and yet honorable and martial manner, Dekan even felt a little reluctant to scam this guy.

Dude, even if you were the god of gamblers, you wouldn't be able to beat me in a game of luck today!

"Forget it. If you lose these cards, you'll have a lot of trouble, right?"

Dekan sighed and shook his head.

However, the black-haired young man just sneered:

"Hehe, who do you take me for? Even without these magic cards, I am still invincible in the world! Are you afraid of me winning it all back in one go?"

Dekan was at a loss for words.

Although you are not the king of luck, you are indeed the arrogant one of the generation.

This was the first time he had met such a noble person.

Dekan really didn't plan to continue scamming this impulsive guy with metaphysical powers.

But this black-haired young man had to be so arrogant.

Dekan felt that if he didn't fleece him hard again, he'd be letting down his own recklessness.

"Then let's continue."

So it was another several tens of minutes of high-stakes gambling.

As they gambled.

The black-haired young man had even lost all the cards on his body that could be unbound.

"If you lose any more, you'll lose your pants. Can we go now?"

The black-haired young man had gambled until he had even mortgaged his own clothes to the club in exchange for some gold coins for a final gamble.

As a result, he still lost to Dekan.

The black-haired young man lowered his head and bit his lip, his fists clenched on the card table, and he nodded with difficulty.

"Then we'll meet again if fate allows."

Dekan had to admit that although this guy's brain was not very good, his card etiquette was indeed excellent.

This guy really had nothing left on him except his Epic cards.

But Epic cards were very difficult to unbind.

First, there was no beeswax material needed for unbinding here, and even if there was, unbinding would require relatively complex steps and a certain amount of time.

Even if he was willing to take it out, it couldn't be turned into a tradable bet.

Dekan and Cloix picked up their coin boxes and prepared to leave.

"Wait! I'll bet this with you!"

Saying that, the black-haired young man took out a seal from his pocket and slammed it on the card table.

He seemed to have been pushed to the absolute limit to have taken this thing out.

"Heh, you still have a family heirloom?"

Dekan glanced at this guy's last bet with some disdain.

He had even gambled away his most used magic cards, could there be anything more valuable?

However, when Dekan really noticed this seal, his pupils couldn't help but tremble violently.

Dekan quickly maintained his acting skills, not letting his expression change, and pretended not to recognize this seal.

Because he couldn't let anyone find out that he recognized this thing!

Dekan was all too familiar with this thing!

This damn thing!

It was a Bishop's Certificate of the Resurrection Church!!!
