The Mythical Path of a Princess from a Destroyed Kingdom

Maginus also sensed the subtle magic swirling around those tools. Oh, they weren't magical artifacts, of course, but with just a little magic, they could at least help others cheat or prevent others from cheating.

Always keeping a close eye on her employer, Maginus would cough whenever Lenia was persuaded to put down her chips, reminding her that he was still there, and Lenia would reluctantly stop.

The young woman did not show any anger, but was still full of worry, worried that she would not be able to complete the task.

Yes, the moment the two girls entered the casino, some high-class guests set their sights on them and asked the casino to find a way to bring them upstairs.

Finally, the casino sent over the young lady and the male waiter from before, with the aim of making Lenya lose as many chips as possible so that it would be easier to "invite" the two upstairs later.

Cheer up, the woman smiled and invited the two to continue their tour of the casino, when suddenly a noisy commotion came from ahead.

"I refuse to accept this! Your casino must have cheated!"

Many people looked over there. A well-dressed nobleman stared at the croupier in front of him with bloodshot eyes. Judging from his aura, he was not someone to be trifled with. His guards also had their hands on their weapons, as if they were ready to fight at any moment.

Judging from his ears, he seems to still have a little elven blood, probably having a half-elf ancestor, though his bloodline is now very diluted.

Seeing this, Lenia tried to step back, but the woman smiled and said, "It's alright, you two. This gentleman will be subdued and calm down soon."

Chapter 116 Farce

Maginus didn't care whether the troublemaking nobleman would be subdued; for safety's sake, she immediately pulled Lenia's clothes back.

Many people's attention was drawn to them, but before some of the guests who had lost badly could join the nouveau riche in making a ruckus, the two had just retreated to a position closer to the crowd when people from the casino arrived.

A casino guard and a man dressed in the same elegant attire as the rioting nobleman emerged from a doorway. The man sneered at the deranged nobleman and said:

"Ha, isn't this Ron Leslie? What's wrong, you lost a little money and are now blaming the casino for cheating?"

"It's you, buddy. What, you own this casino? Looks like this casino is definitely cheating."

Ron, the troublemaking nobleman, gripped the ceremonial sword at his waist and sneered, clearly harboring an old grudge against the casino's nobles.

"I don't have the ability to run a casino like this. You should be thinking about whether you'll be kicked out for causing trouble here."

The casino nobleman sneered, waved for his casino guards to confront Ron's guards, then pushed aside the original dealer and stood in front of the dice cup, staring at Ron.

He pointed to the two dice cups on the table and said:

"Hey, we're all from noble families, you don't want things to get too ugly, right? Two dice cups, three dice in each, let's see who rolls the higher number. If I win, you'd better get out of here and stop embarrassing your old man."

"I lost, I'll pay you back what you lost today."

The troublemaking nobleman Ron was persuaded. He took the dice cup and examined it carefully. After confirming that there were no traps, he pointed to another table and said, "Let's go over there."

"it is good!"

The two walked to the side, and Lenia showed an excited expression. Not only her, but many onlookers also watched with great interest. It was indeed very interesting to see two noble playboys gambling.

The young lady leaned close to Maginos's ear: "Just like the bard's little story, Mine, who do you think will win?"

“The one over here at the casino,” Maginus glanced around, the red mist of life force dissipating to keep her alert, “this is their home turf. If they want you to win, you will; if they don’t want you to win, you will definitely lose.”

The woman standing nearby was displeased and retorted with a smile, "Oh, Miss Mine, you have too many misunderstandings about our casino. That's something only shady casinos do. We are fair and just here."

"Yeah, yeah," the girl replied dismissively, "losing is just because you're not as good as the other person, right?"

The sound of the dice and the dice cup colliding drew Maginus's attention back to the two nobles, who quickly stopped shaking and pressed the dice cups against the table.

"Want to switch to another game?"

The nobleman at the casino displayed a provocative expression, which enraged Ron, who was causing trouble. He immediately forgot his original vigilance and opened the dice cup first, revealing a total of fourteen points: four, five, and five.

“It’s your turn,” Ron said suddenly, narrowing his eyes and gripping his longsword. “Borengitt, let me make it clear beforehand, if you get three sixes, I’ll make the nobles behind this casino apologize to me.”

As Ron's arch-enemy, the casino nobleman was someone Ron knew was not a skilled gambling thief, but a warrior slightly stronger than himself.

Therefore, there's no need to talk about "knowing the dice number by listening to the sound" or "being able to get three sixes by shaking the dice cup." The troublemaking noble knew very well that this guy didn't have that ability.

Upon hearing the troublemaking nobleman's words, the casino nobleman frowned almost imperceptibly and quietly placed one hand behind him. The sharp-eyed troublemaker sneered, "I suggest you don't put your hand down."

For a moment, the casino nobles seemed to be in a dilemma. However, Maginus used her keen senses to look behind the casino staff. A guard with his head down was emitting magical energy from his hand, which was aimed at the dice in the dice cup.

The somewhat nervous nobleman gripped the dice cup with both hands and suddenly said, "Are you sure you don't want to switch to another game?"

"Of course I won't change it. Are you feeling guilty because you're in the group chat?"

The troublemaking nobleman was quite excited, as if he had found his mortal enemy's mistake, and he kept his eyes on the dice cup without letting up for a moment.

Maginus quietly diffused the red mist of life force into the tightly sealed dice cup and discovered that one of the dice was slowly turning over. As for the number, she couldn't see it; the red mist couldn't be that precise.

As the dice finally flipped over silently, the casino nobleman, as if receiving a simultaneous signal, gritted his teeth and abruptly opened the dice cup. The troublemaker pointed at the numbers inside, about to burst into laughter, but his voice choked halfway through.

The onlookers peered over and saw that the dice had a total of sixteen points, which was two points higher than the troublemakers'.

"What else do you have to say, poor Ron Leslie? Stop embarrassing yourself here and get out of here!"

"Impossible! You must have cheated!"

Ron roared, his neck red, showing no intention of honoring the original agreement. Seeing this, Lenia frowned and said to Maginus, "He's so shameful. If he lost, he should just leave."

"Face? Does money matter? He probably gambled away most of his family's wealth and is afraid of being scolded by his father when he gets back."

Maginus stroked his chin. Losing only a few coins was no reason to be in such a hurry, but judging from the gambler's appearance, he probably secretly took all his family's wealth to gamble.

This casino is no pushover either; it's probably the territory of some powerful noble family. After all, they weren't afraid of even spoiled brats causing trouble here.

Sensing that a fight was about to break out, the girl grabbed the young lady's hand. She knew all too well that when people were desperate, they wouldn't care about propriety or shame.

Sure enough, a fight broke out the next second. The troublemaking nobleman suddenly drew his ceremonial sword from his waist and pointed it at the casino nobleman. His face was red as he shouted, "You must have cheated! Give me my money back!"

His guards also drew their weapons, while the casino nobleman smiled elegantly, a stark contrast to his opponent, as he drew his ornate longsword and sneered:

"Heh, in the end, it's still about fighting. I gave you a chance, and today I'll teach you a lesson. When you go back covered in bruises and tell your father, don't forget to tell him where you lost your money!"

Casino guards drew their weapons, and the onlookers quickly retreated. However, seeing that the gamblers showed no fear, Maginus guessed that this was probably not the first or second time this had happened.

The casino staff remained calm, carefully collecting all the chips on the table to prevent them from being stolen. Lenia, standing nearby, was completely unaware of the gravity of the situation.

The girl pulled her back to make room for the combatants. The first metallic clang rang out, and the two sides immediately started fighting.

As everyone saw in Chapter 117, they made the first move.

The ceremonial sword and the jeweled sword clashed together, and Maginus couldn't help but shake his head at the sight.

These spoiled young nobles lacked the intellect to learn magic, but they were still capable of becoming warriors or knights. As a result, they all wasted their time. At least these two guys in front of her probably couldn't even beat the black market manager the girl had met in River City.

I wonder if these people are the next heirs of the family. If so, no wonder the family has declined.

As time passed, the casino did not send any more staff, seemingly letting things take their course. People from other areas heard about the commotion and came over, all quite pleased with the spectacle.

The guards of the troublemaking nobles were killed one by one, and Qi Yingqun also gradually retreated, slightly losing to the casino nobles.

"Ha, it seems you're nothing special after all. I'll give you compensation for these tables and chairs after I defeat you. Go back and explain things to the lord!"

As the rioting nobles were gradually pushed closer to Maginus by the casino nobles, the girl saw this and pulled Lenia aside.

To her surprise, the guys who had the upper hand seemed to have their eyes on this side. Whenever she and the young lady moved, the casino guys would deliberately slow down their attacks and shift their positions.

She turned directly to the young woman standing beside her and said, "Miss, I've noticed that this young nobleman from your casino has been trying to shift the battlefield over here."

"Really? You're just imagining things. These things are beyond our control. How about we step back a bit more?"

The woman's smile was somewhat stiff. Maginus grabbed Lenia's hand and led her into the crowd. The casino nobles who were fighting narrowed their eyes and immediately intensified their attack!

"Ahhh!"

The two rushed toward the crowd where Maginus and Lenia were, causing panic among the crowd. The onlookers immediately retreated, and the scene became somewhat chaotic, but this also successfully brought the two who had been locked on back into view.

Realizing she was being watched, Maginus placed her hand on the hilt of her protector's sword, a smile involuntarily creeping onto her face as her bloodlust surged.

Treat it like a friendly sparring match, relax, relax... Although I have Count Shelvis's permission to kill, it's best not to kill in the home turf of these treacherous individuals...

As the battle loomed, a sense of madness gradually took hold of the girl, and she tried to prevent herself from becoming too violent by practicing mental combat techniques.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be of much use.

She knew that Lenia had a large group of bodyguards around her, so if a fight broke out, she could fight without worrying about any hidden arrows hitting Lenia.

Maginus was merely a bodyguard in name only; her job was to accompany the young lady shopping and then encounter what Silvis had planned.

With clear insurance coverage, the girl watched the two approach little by little, took a step forward, stood in front of Lenya, released the sword hilt, and spread her hands slightly.

Don't kill him, just seriously injure him...

Through a series of coincidences, they came within three meters of the two girls. Sensing someone behind them, the currently frustrated and troublemaking nobleman turned around, brandished his sword, and shouted, "Get out of my way!"

"careful!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in the casino nobleman's eyes. He was about to step forward to play the hero and save the damsel in distress. However, his longsword did not strike anything. Instead, the troublemaking nobleman felt a small hand pressing on his head.

Everyone around witnessed this scene: the seemingly frail and petite girl tilted her head to avoid the sword's edge and then placed her thin little hand directly on the head of the troublemaking nobleman.

Maginot's arms showed obvious muscle bulging, and the head she grabbed was forcefully thrown to the ground!

Bang!

The wooden floor was smashed and cracked. The rioting nobleman, who had suffered a severe head injury, fainted. Fortunately, Maginus stopped at the last moment, otherwise he would have suffered more than just a bloody head.

As for whether this nobleman's head will be damaged, there's no need to worry; he's a warrior after all.

The entire area fell silent as Maginus suddenly erupted. Lenia blinked, realizing that the casino did indeed have some ill intentions towards them, and moved closer to the girl.

Maintaining the motion of throwing the person to the ground, Maginus twitched his fingers, veins bulging on his neck, barely suppressing his smile as he looked at the casino nobleman in front of him.

"No need to thank us, Leahy, we should go now."

Nodding to the stunned nobleman, Maginus exchanged a glance with Lenia, then pulled her away from the casino. The surrounding crowd instinctively dispersed, mainly out of awe for those stronger than themselves.

The girl's move was so obvious. The two nobles fought for a long time, and in the end, she pinned the troublemaking noble down with one hand, and his head bounced on the ground a few times.

Perhaps the casino aristocracy caused more harm to the troublemaking aristocracy, but the impressions they gave to the public were completely different.

If I had to describe it... perhaps Maginus possesses a kind of violent beauty?

Just as the two were about to reach the gate, the casino nobles and ladies, who had planned to play the hero and then use the excuse of taking them to a higher level of the casino, finally realized what was going on.

The young woman stepped forward, and the casino nobleman glanced at the guards, quietly blocking their path.

Maginus stood there with Lenia in tow, still expressionless, with a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.

This is so troublesome... It's really troublesome to make it seem like I wasn't the one who wanted to start it.

But that's the rule of Lingmeng Shaanxi O Qiuling Qi Cu Wu Ba. The girl doesn't want others to know that she's someone who wants to kill all day long. At least when she's weak, she has to wear a mask. As long as the other party makes the first move, she has a reason to retaliate no matter what she does.

With her index finger and thumb rubbing together, Lenia, sensing something was amiss, moved closer to the girl, her hand already on the dimensional pouch in her bosom, ready to conjure an invisibility scroll at any moment.

The young woman stepped forward with a smile: "Miss Mine, thank you for your help."

Then the casino nobleman stepped forward, also giving Lenia a gentle smile: "Oh, dear ladies, to thank you for helping the casino subdue the enemy, we sincerely invite you..."

"No need, it's unnecessary, thank you."

Before the nobleman could finish speaking, Maginus rattled off a string of three refusals, barely able to contain the manic smile on his face. He managed to shout, "Are we leaving? Or is your casino's 'sincere invitation' just an attempt to force us upstairs?!"

The shouts were clearly audible to all the gamblers in the area, and their expressions turned suspicious as they looked at the casino staff. Personal safety was of utmost importance; what if they won a lot of money but ended up being killed by the casino?

The girl's shout made the casino nobleman frown for a moment. He looked up and saw a portly man with gleaming eyes in a private room on the second floor, gesturing for him to bring the girl up.

The young nobleman looked somewhat helpless, but still blocked Maginus's path.

Upon seeing this, Maginos revealed his fangs.

Chapter 118 Melee

"Rayce, Invisibility, Magic Rope."

Maginus gripped the hilt of his sword with one hand and spoke to Lenia, who needed his protection, without any attempt to conceal his intentions. He then turned his gaze back to the people blocking his path, took a step forward, and looked up at his enemies.

"Casino staff, I'll ask you one more time, are you planning to force us upstairs, or are you going to let us leave?!"

The casino nobleman had made up his mind and was unwilling to talk any further. His expression turned somewhat cold: "I'm sorry, ladies, we suspect you of stealing chips from the casino. We hope you can come with us."

Previously, she had said she was inviting them to discuss the rewards, but now she had changed her tune and said it was their fault. Lenia was truly amazed. She quickly pulled out an invisibility scroll, tore it open, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

However, with casino guards surrounding her, Lenya's use of the Magic Rope spell, which allows people to temporarily escape to a temporary space, could be interrupted. She stood still, believing that Maginus, one of the guards, could create an opportunity for her to escape into the temporary space.

The moment the young lady used invisibility, Maginus made his move.

The girl's calm, beautiful face instantly transformed into an incredibly ferocious smile in everyone's eyes. Her beast-like aura and the surging killing intent emanating from her body caused the casino nobleman to instinctively take a step back.

Maginus shouted excitedly, and the gamblers throughout the area and even the surrounding areas could hear him:

"In that case, let the chaotic banquet begin!!!!!"

The countless scars on her wrist burst open instantly, and the red mist spread out from the girl and rushed towards the guards who were surrounding her. Faced with the red mist that suddenly rushed towards their faces, their first reaction was to close their eyes and wave their hands to drive it away.

"Rayce, the Magic Rope Technique!"
