Carla and Bella had expected Arthur's victory, they just smiled slightly, looking around to see people's reactions. Even Harry and William who were here following Arthur opened their mouths, seemingly wondering if it was really a stroke of luck.
On the other hand, Arthur tapped the table with his finger -- a soft tap but one that echoed to the back of the crowd that had come closer to see.
"Let's do it one more time, I bet with all the chips I've won," Arthur said.
"Arthur, if you're sure you'll win again, use all my chips too, it doesn't matter if you lose..." Anna gave Arthur another offer.
However, Arthur shook his head and replied, "I don't want to bankrupt someone else's business!"
His words were enough to upset Henry who had just panicked, he snorted coldly. "You should stop bragging because of one fluke, if you really dare, put all the chips on the table," he said.
Just now he was being friendly to Arthur and now he was already showing his annoyance, it seemed that pretending was not his habit.
As he spoke, Arthur turned his gaze towards him.
With a mocking smile, he said, "you seem to have forgotten what happened on that ship, how about we make another bet, if I win, I will punch you in the face and if I lose, you can do whatever you want to me?"
"Are you serious?" Upon hearing Arthur's words, Henry suddenly perked up immediately, as if he didn't hear the first sentence he said.
Arthur thought that this man was indeed a brainless idiot, he responded with a light nod before shaking his bowl once more.
That was a confirmation.
"How is he so bold, does he really believe he can win?" Someone wondered.
"Maybe he does have the skill to make the dice he shakes show the highest number."
"Impossible!" The others immediately refuted. "That's impossible except in the movie, I've asked the AI, even the most skilled person can only influence a little, so there's no way he could determine the number the dice show."
"..."
Then, the croupiers shook their bowls. Compared to before, they were more alert as they stared at Arthur.
There was a worry in their minds if the result was still the same as before.
Losing might be common in gambling, but as workers here, it didn't mean they didn't have the risk of losing too much.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
They put down their bowls simultaneously.
Before opening their bowls, they took a breath.
Arthur was still smiling slightly, this time he also didn't need to show his magic because the result was still him winning.
"Come on," he said in a low voice before lifting the bowl, revealing each of the dice that showed six dots on it.
"Hisss!!!" Many hissed when they saw that including the croupiers.
(Congratulations, you have won!)
The screen made another sound, congratulating Arthur.
"Omg, what a charming show," Anna said with a big smile.
Her eyes looking at Arthur seemed to become even hotter, between awe and fascination.
Much to her surprise, she found her heart suddenly skipping a beat.
'Don't tell me I'm in love with this boy,' she said to herself.
She thought that way because it had been a long time since her heart had beaten.
Although from the beginning she wanted to make love to Arthur, it was purely because of her sexual appetite, but now it was quite different.
And she knew the kind of woman who knew well her own thoughts and feelings. Plus, she was always open and accepting of that.
When she felt something strange in her heart and mind when she looked at Arthur, she knew that she was probably in love even though it was a bit silly considering their age difference.
The more she thought about it, the faster her heart beat - there was a kind of excitement she couldn't control.
'This isn't bad,' she thought.
She had been a romantic woman in her youth. Although at her age now she was a very pragmatic type but that didn't mean she rejected love if it could arise in her heart.
"Impossible, how is that possible? That's impossible?" Henry suddenly shouted with his eyes wide open, he rubbed his eyes, staring at Arthur's dice, even stepping forward to get closer to the table where the dice were.
At this point, the casino would lose 1 Million Euros.
Such an amount was still acceptable, however, their daily profits were more than that.
What is unacceptable is the loss.
Any casino will not be able to accept losing as if it were the result of a strategy.
If that were the case, all casinos would go bankrupt.
"You lost and it's time for me to punch you in the face," Arthur said, surprising Henry again.
"Do you dare?" As an asshole who always thought he could shake the sky, there was no way he could take that. He shouted loudly as he answered.
Unfortunately, he was dealing with Arthur. Not to mention him, even Erick or even the man's father would still get the same result.
Right after Henry spoke, Arthur's fist that seemed to have been clenched tightly moved towards his face.
BANG!
It landed right on his nose, producing the sound of bones breaking.
Henry's body was then flung into the air before landing behind a table.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh...." The man screamed very loudly while blood poured out of his nose. He wanted to roll over but seemed afraid that it would add to the injury on his nose.
Several security guards approached, showing expressions of disbelief. It was very rare for violence to occur here. It usually only happens when there is a frustrated gambler who goes berserk and the security guards beat him up.
Today, a guest who just won big hit someone in the face, who is one of the small bosses here.
This is basically not something that should happen.
The security guards were at a loss as to how to act.
A manager who arrived in a hurry said, "hurry him to the hospital, can't you see his nose is broken."
His voice became louder with his words.
The security responded immediately. They lifted Henry's body before carrying him to the door.
At the same time, the manager, who was a middle-aged man with a cold face turned his gaze to Arthur.
