(137) Miri’s Adventure 9

Translator: Tseirp

After entering the gambling parlor, Miri muttered while observing the surroundings.

Incidentally, there isn’t a definitive age restriction for entering the gambling parlor as there are nobles who began playing at the gambling parlor for as long as they can remember so even though the people around them took notice of Miri, there naturally wasn’t anyone who came to warn her.

“Ho, so this is Belasra’s Gambling Parlor … it sure has changed quite a bit.”

When she was here previously, it was a place that only had card games. It definitely didn’t have the roulette and slot machines.

Well, her previous visit was more than a hundred years ago when she came here incognito but she was quickly banished and forbidden from entering.

“Eh? Miri-chan, you’ve been here before? Even though you look lost?”

“Well … er, exchanging coins with medals to play is the same. Then let’s hurry up and ―”

Miri went to the medal exchange counter and placed 1 gold coin ― 10 thousand sense and 100 silver coins on the table.

“Please change all of this into medals.”

“Understood.”

The receptionist lady respectfully lowered her head, collected the coins and handed Miri 5 green medals and 1 red medal.

A green medal was 1000 sense, the red medal was 10000 sense so the remaining 5000 sense would be the tax.

“Ah, pl, please exchange this too.”

Beside her, Norn took out 1 silver coin.

She was handed 5 white medals and 7 blue medals.

“Norn will be playing too?”

“Yu, yup, I’m feeling nervous though because it’s the first time I’ve come to a place like this.”

“I … see. Then, Norn can play at the slot machines there. Also, here, read it while you play the slots!”

Miri passed Norn a sheet of paper and pointed her to a vacant slot machine on the first floor.

“Eh? But those slot machines need blue medals though? If I go there, my medals would quickly ―”

“Stop complaining and get going! If you lose all your medals then just look around until I return!”

“Okay uuu!”

Norn headed towards the slot machines in tears after getting scolded by Miri.

Miri looked contemptuously at the sniffing Norn heading to the slots and continued observing the surroundings.

There were magical power detection tools placed everywhere. They were surely magic tools meant to capture cheating done using magic.

(Well, even if I don’t use magic, there’s no way I would lose if it’s the roulette.)

When she had that thought, Miri recalled the white wolf young girl who was together with her when she was the Demon Lord.

(I wonder if she’s doing well … I believe that hero won’t renege on his promise.)

Miri had a really gentle smile for an instant.

That might have been the first real smile she showed since she came to this world. However, nobody noticed that smile.

Then, when Miri sat at the roulette table, her eyes turned sharp.

It was at the same time the ball was tossed.

She had already bet a large amount of medals but she further bet even more after the ball was tossed.

Miri looked at the ball and bet her medals on red 12.

The customers who saw that sized up Miri and her red medal.
