Cross Dressing In A Fantasy World Full Of Magic

Chapter 75 Casino In Dawn Creed City (Part I)

With the auction finished, the two of us left the building, "Senior! How was your experience in the auction house? I take it that was your first time going to one."

"It was. It was a great time to kill time," I told Fay my thoughts.

"What are you going to next? I doubt you would stay long. After all, I heard that your "test" would soon be over." I didn't know what there was to do, so I thought of an answer to her question.

"I will walk around to see if anything interests me." That was the only thing that I could think of.

"Senior, I would like to accompany you, but I have an appointment to make."

"Senior, meeting you was nice, but it seems we would have to part ways." She said, looking at the sky. It was understandable. After all, she seemed like she was a noble despite her easygoing attitude.

"Don't worry, senior, if you're still in school, then we will meet one day!" Saying all of that, we parted ways. Even if she was pretty annoying sometimes, I would miss her presence.

The auction took half of my time here, but there was still time before I returned. I then went around and checked for anything else that was exciting.

Checking out a place that I found, it was a gambling den. This was apparently the gambling store everyone would go to in the upper class.

Entering the store, I could see many people laughing and getting angry. All of the gambles done were manual. Things like slots didn't exist.

Should I try and gamble? I didn't want to lose money. I took ten gold coins from my pocket and decided to go with them. The first thing that I had to do was exchange these gold coins for chips. The gambling den only used currency such as gold or higher.

Walking around, I had someone call out to me. "Hello, Miss. Would you like to watch me play a game or two?" He winked at me, giving my skin a shivering shake.

"Sorry, but I prefer to be alone," I said as sternly as possible, indirectly telling him to back off. I didn't want any male friends unless I was strong enough to reveal my identity.

"Don't be so hasty. It would be fun." Persistence, there are things that you shouldn't persist in, and this is one of them. I could see that he was trying to flirt with me, but I ain't interested in men.

If I kept talking to him, he seemed like he would keep following. Ignoring him, I walked away. There was a roulette wheel. I have heard about it but have never seen one in person.

Sitting down, the wheel was already in play. There were already five people here gambling. The man that was trying to flirt with me had followed me. What was wrong with him? Does he take the word if you fail, then try again? ... I sighed.

For a gambling game this game had a lot of options. Many picks would determine how many coins you would get if you won.

Since it was my first try doing the roulette, I would go with the odds of 50%. I could pick high or low, odds or even red and black.

Putting a chip in evens, the wheel began to spin. The ball had landed on red three. It seemed like I had lost my first bet. Some people were wilding and put large amounts of money on a number.

Losing my first chip, I doubled my bet and picked the color black as my pick. The wheel began to spin with everyone on the table finished putting in their bets.

The ball landed on red 25. It seemed like I had lost another bet. The poor old man had gambled everything on a square connected to four numbers. Unluckily he had nothing left, and he left the table, losing everything.

Like the old man, the person following me lost 20 gold coins. Since I had lost, surely I would win my next bet, right? Losing three chips in total, I decided to put four.

Since the last two were the color red, I decided to pick black again. What were the chances that they would be red again?

I prayed inwardly that the spinner would pick a number that would be black. I could hear someone speaking loudly, hoping for a number they had chosen.

The spinner moved, and the ball was rolling, landing on black 13. The money that I had lost had returned. I now had 15 chips resulting in 15 gold coins. Some people left, and some joined the table.

My neighbor then started a conversation with me. "Are you a student of Saint Maria's Academy?" It wasn't hard for anyone to see that with the dress that I was wearing, seeing that she was trying to start a conversation I had no reason to be rude about.

Looking at her, she was a woman who seemed to be in her twenties. I couldn't tell anyone's ages with magic involved. She could be fifty for all I know.

"I'm, I'm Charlie, a student of Class A." It would be troublesome if I told her that I was an S-class student and be wrong if I was ranked lower.

"Talented one, aren't you?" Talking, we both decided to pick which spot we wanted. Should I go for an even higher bet now that I have surplus gold? I had nothing to lose as long as I didn't overbet.

Should I go with Dozen or Column? Deciding, I went with the second column and put three chips. The lady beside me picked her up and returned to talk with me.

"Where was I? Ah! You may call me Shelly." Shelly? The name was pretty silly, but she didn't seem like a terrible person to talk to. The man following me looked distraught, seeing me conversing with someone without giving the person a glare.

The wheel then began to spin once again.
