“This is the first time I’ve seen Fivur losefor about an hour He had started with 100 chips, but he now had 270
“Froed his hand again He has a two-pair now” The Frost Queen floated over the table, reading off the hands If you knew your opponents’ hands in poker, you couldn’t lose even if you wanted to
“Raise”
“Oooh! He seems pretty confident this ti? Or is Lady Luck s at him?”
Seo Jun-Ho won the round with a three-of-a-kind He now had 350 chips

“Understood”
Haus gripped the railing, his eyes burned with rage “How dare he touch my money!”
“C-Contractor!” The Frost Queen pointed angrily at the new players “They are all cheating Even the dealer is helping them!”
“Hmmm” Seo Jun-Ho was unsurprised He knew this would happen
‘They’re a little late, though’

He folded and stood up from his seat Fivur and the otheralready?” Fivur unwittingly grabbed his sleeve “H-how about we play a little longer? Look how ”
“I already won a lot It would be a waste if I lost it again”
“B-but…” Fivur started to tremble If Seo Jun-Ho left like this, he would die
Just then, a er in a suit interrupted them
“Sir, the owner said that he would like to have a drink with you”
The crowd started to murmur and looked at Seo Jun-Ho with envy
“Isn’t the owner one of the 2 Scoundrels of Gilleon?”
“They say Haus has enough assets to co”
Seo Jun-Ho smiled “Of course Lead the way”
He followed the antly furnished room
“This is the VIP room Normally, only nobles are allowed to enter here”
“He didn’t have to go this far” He suards were standing behind him Seo Jun-Ho instantly realized that he was Haus
‘He’s about as strong as Moneybug’

“You’re sharp But that’s all you are” He gestured with his finger, and the guards started to walk toward Seo Jun-Ho “I don’t need the nobles to take hed Since Haus had connections to the aristocracy, he initially wanted to resolve this as peacefully as possible
