Is It Funny That The Dragon Slayer Failed And Became The Dragon Princess?

85. The Gamble

Ascension Casino summoned a servant, delivering fine wine to his presence.

“Young Master, please enjoy.”

The young master of the Elvin Family picked up the glass, gently swirling it, gazing at Sera through the fine wine.

The Cavendish Family, truly ignorant of their blessings.

He scorned in his heart.

In the eyes of the newly established nobility forming the New Chamber of Commerce, the Cavendish family was nothing but a decaying old fixture, rigid and conservative, with utmost respect for the royal family, acting only within the royal laws, with loyalty above all.

Everyone knew that the most profitable way nowadays was to bypass the business of the Dragon Palace.

The Dragon Palace in the far north never cared about the affairs of the south, let alone management and assistance. They could never imagine how much effort the new nobles had put into the rise of this city.

Yet even so, the do-nothing Royal Dragon Family could still gain a lot for nothing.

It was truly unacceptable.

Why?

The New Chamber of Commerce originally wanted to cooperate with the Cavendish family. With their assistance, it would be easier to bypass the Royal Dragon Family.

It was a proposal that would make everyone win big, yet the Cavendish family refused.

Just because of the honor bestowed by the Royal Dragon Family in ancient times, they could be so blindly devoted.

Truly unreasonable.

But no matter, the influence of the Cavendish surname in Corolle was dwindling.

The head of the Cavendish was nothing but a wastrel who thought only of eating, drinking and having fun every day, squandering his family’s fortune, bound to ruin the entire family sooner or later.

And the once young heirs of the Cavendish had also vanished without a trace.

Although the Cavendish family never made it clear, everyone had guessed that those heirs had probably died young…

The decline of the Cavendish family had become a certainty, it was just a matter of when they would fall.

Looking at Sera, Oba wanted to laugh even more.

This guy, really thinks the Cavendish family is still the same as before, thinking that by announcing her family name, she could deter others?

Times have changed.

“You have violated the laws of Corolle, so our self-defense is justified,” Oba said leisurely, “The members of the Cangqing Gang are a bit fierce, but I can’t say much about the force they use.”

More and more dragons appeared, all dressed in black suits, with the same gang emblem on their chests, carrying weapons.

Some carried greatswords, some held huge axes, and there were also those with magic staves…

True suit-wearing thugs.

“Miss, you might as well surrender to avoid unnecessary suffering.”

The giant dragon from the Cangqing Gang stepped forward, ready to subdue Sera.

Sera slapped away the giant dragon’s hand, with a grappling technique, she pinned him to the ground.

“What?!” The giant dragon from the Cangqing Gang was surprised.

This scene made him feel very embarrassed, wanting to stand up, to exert strength to resist.

But under Sera’s pressure, he could hardly move.

“What are you doing? Did you get dazzled by her beauty?!” members of the Cangqing Gang shouted.

“No, no… this is… I can’t move!” The dragon’s face became even more embarrassed.

The members of the Cangqing Gang also realized something was wrong, they might have underestimated the red dragon beauty before them, and several people rushed up together.

Sera kicked the giant dragon, sending him flying like a ball, the huge impact knocking down a group of people.

Some directly fell onto the gambling tables, immediately smashing the tables to pieces, causing screams from the customers.

“The members of the Cangqing Gang are still so useless, just like before, they can’t take a hit.” Sera commented.

“Damn it, to look down on the Cangqing Gang…!” The dragon from before got up, glaring at Sera, burning with anger.

“Interesting,” Oba stroked his chin, “This girl from the Cavendish family has some strength, then let’s have some fun! You, come here!”

He beckoned a servant over, had him bring a notebook, wrote some content on it, and then the servant nodded, understanding, and rushed to the back of the main stage.

The lights in the center of the casino suddenly went out, and then, a loud voice echoed throughout the dark casino.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to our triennial celebration event at Ascension Casino! Please don’t panic, because what follows will be our temporary special event for the celebration! Look!!”

Above the central stage, spotlights lit up, focusing on Sera.

“This beautiful lady has challenged the laws of Corolle, despised the rules of this city, and has become an outright criminal. We at Ascension Casino, as lovers of Corolle, will not ignore this matter and will fight the criminal to the end! Everyone can place their bets, before the sheriff arrives, how long can the criminal resist?”

The host continued to explain passionately:

“This is tonight’s special event for the celebration! The winner with the highest chips in this gamble will receive our Ascension Casino’s golden tree as a reward!!”

After the host’s introduction, the nobles began to get excited.

“Someone actually dares to challenge the laws of Corolle, aren’t they tired of living? Her life is being used as a prop for the gamble.”

“That beautiful lady seems to have some strength. She defeated some members of the Cangqing Gang.”

“They’re just some small fries from the Cangqing Gang, don’t forget, the boss of the Cangqing Gang hasn’t made a move yet, he came to Ascension Casino to watch the scene during the celebration.”

“When the boss of the Cangqing Gang makes a move, won’t this criminal be doomed? After all, that boss is not simple, we might see some bloody scenes.”

“The Elvin family is really generous, giving us money, now it’s just a matter of whether the criminal dies sooner or later!”

The nobles talked and talked, expressing unpleasant remarks.

Xia Yi was uncomfortable just from listening.

But Sera, the center of attention, was expressionless. She grew up in Corolle and was already accustomed to the nature of the people in this city, not surprised.

“Betting time is one minute, time is pressing, honored guests. If you decide to join this special celebration event, start betting!!”

The nobles began to bet one after another, most of them guessing when Sera would be beaten to death.

However, there were also exceptions.

Upstairs, a dragon who witnessed everything called a servant, “I put all my chips on her, I bet…”

After hearing the request and seeing the exaggerated amount of chips, the servant’s face was full of shock, feeling that this person was crazy.

“Sir, are you serious?!”
