LAZARUS REGULUS
Chapters 19. Casino II.
Lazarus, and the others were on the first floor. They originally, just wanted to have fun choosing sedimentary rocks. However, due to an unexpected incident Lazarus is involved in a bet with Claire.
"Mrs Claire, I'll bet using sedimentary rock." Lazarus is a little bent.
"Urs, the chances of obtaining a surviving Beast egg and precious material are only 1:100,000, you can't bet with sedimentary rocks!" Iris screamed a little.
Although, she had known Claire a long time ago, Claire was someone who was hard to guess. He was a little worried about Lazarus.
"Claire, I will not forgive you, if you make Urs a slave!" Alyssa says.
"Alyssa, do you have any valuables? For example a branch of the Yggdrasil tree I will receive it, to redeem the man." Claire made an offer with a smile.
Alyssa immediately took out the 1.5-meter-long trunk of the Yggdrasil tree, from her storage pouch.
"I will give this branch of the Epic Yggdrasil Rank tree a bet!"
Lazarus saw the branch material of the Yggdrasil tree. The Yggdrasil Tree Branch was a rare Epic Rank item for making Epic Rank and Legendary Rank magic wand Artifacts.
'Master, inside Mother Melanthios' treasure, we have nine branches of the Yggdrasil tree, and it is 3 times the size that the Elf gave it, is the Item very valuable?' Ignis says.
'The material was extremely valuable especially in making the Item stick for magicians.'
"All right, I agree." Claire smiled subtly.
Actually Claire didn't see anything interesting from Lazarus. Although, Lazarus knew he was a 5000-year-old vampire, but almost all the high-ranked Nobles in the Lion Heart Empire knew of him.
Lazarus and the others went to pick out the sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary rocks were rocks that contained precious materials with varying Rank, it was not uncommon for one to find fire Element Beast eggs, earth and metals. However, the chance of finding a surviving Beast egg is almost impossible, as the longest Beast egg can only survive for 15-35 years if not incubated.
"Urs, your skill is useless in choosing sedimentary rocks, though, you have eye and sense skills that are sensitive to mana. Because sedimentary rocks are deposits of many kinds of metals and rocks, which block skill and mana." Iris says.
"Miss, take it easy I have a slightly above average lucky statistic." Lazarus smiled. "Mrs Claire, did anyone get any valuables in the sedimentary rocks?"
"A month ago Crow's niece, Princess Callista Lion Heart got something very valuable." Claire said with sparkling eyes. "He was very lucky and obtained the surviving eggs of the Grand Demon Beast Black Steel Lion! The Black Rose Casino the branch of the Imperial Capital."
"What! I didn't know it,! Altair didn't even tell me!" Iris replied in surprise.
"Your daughter Amarylis was also there at the time." Claire replied with a smile.
The surviving Beast Eggs were hundreds of times more valuable than the Beast's body parts. Baby Beasts that have already hatched from eggs can be easily tamed. In fact, by someone who does not have a Job Beast Master.
"Auntie!" Blossom who was beside Iris pointed towards a woman who was betting.
The woman who was betting the sedimentary rock turned out to be Miss Amarilis. Lazarus and the others immediately approached Amaryllis.
Who was that beautiful woman she had already lost over 1000 Gold Coins, but only earned, half a Kilo Gram of Orichalcum Rank Rare metal for 70 Gold Coins.
Everyone there laughed at Madam Amarilis' misfortune.
"How about, Callista gets the Jack pot! Though he had only first gone to the Casino and had only bought one sediment stone for 1 Silver Coin.. I don't accept this! I've been playing in casinos for 10 years! But I've never gotten Jack Pot." Amaryllis muttered in frustration.
Fufufu
"Miss, is it your business to go to the Casino?" Alyssa chuckled small.
"Auntie? What are you doing here! Don't tell my mom I used all my savings for a year to gamble." Amarylis looked very panicked when she saw Alyssa.
Iris who was disguised beside Alyssa looked at Amarilis with an angry expression.
"Grandma's coming here." Blossom said innocently while pulling on Iris's dress.
"Blossom?" Amarylis broke out in cold sweat then glanced towards the blonde-haired girl and had thick glasses. "Mother?"
"Amarilis, we'll talk about this after coming home from the Casino." Iris whispered in a cold voice.
"Good." Amaryllis replied weakly.
"Crow's? Will Crow be born a junior here?" Claire laughs..
Lazarus began to sort through the sedimentary rocks, wanting to pick out the rocks with the most precious contents, but when he used his instinctual skill to sense them, he wanted to pick them up, he felt nothing from within the sedimentary rock.
'Master, try using your Synchronized Beast Skill.'
Lazarus used his Synchronized Beast skill, now all his senses were getting sharper. He can also sense a bit of mana from within the sedimentary rocks.
'Ignis what are you doing?'
'Master, the instincts of the humanoid race are different from those of the Dragon. The Dragon's instincts were dozens of times better than the humanoid race. With your Dragon instinct and your 8/10 lucky stats you are sure to get the most valuable item here.'
"Master, the price of this sedimentary rock is 1 silver coin." Sediment stone guard says.
Lazarus took one sedimentary rock and went to another. Iris and the others followed Lazarus from behind.
Lazarus took out two sedimentary rocks for 10 Silver Coins and lastly he chose two sedimentary rocks for 10 Gold Coins. The total sedimentary rocks he chose were five sedimentary rocks for 20 Gold Coins, and 21 Silver Coins.
"Mrs Claire, I've chosen the sedimentary rock, where did I open it?" Lazarus smiled.
Lazarus deliberately chose an empty sedimentary stone so as not to be suspected. He was also impatient to open up these sedimentary rocks, because from these two sedimentary rocks he could sense the aura of life.
Claire guides Lazarus toward the sedimentary rock opening. At the place where the sedimentary rock cut was already a tiger Beastman race man, waiting there.
"Jack, I need you to help cut the man's sedimentary rock." Claire smiled.
Claire thought that victory was in sight.
"Alright Mrs Claire." Jack bent.
Lazarus gives the sedimentary rocks an empty first. Jack opened it with a knife tool sedimentary rock with great care and meticulous, he did not want to damage the material that was inside the sedimentary rock.
"Sorry sir, your first sedimentary rock is empty." Jack apologized.
Iris and the others let out sad expressions. While Claire who was at their side let out a delighted expression.
"Alyssa, are you ready to lose the branches of the Yggdrasil Tree?" Claire glanced towards the branch of the Yggdrasil tree that was in Alyssa's hands.
Actually only High Elves like Alyssa have branches of the Yggdrasil tree. The branches and parts of the Yggdrasil tree were extremely rare materials and herbs, even for the Elf race, only the High Elves or Nobles Elves guarding the Yggdrasil tree had them. Claire needed a branch of the Yggdrasil tree, to make her magic wand Artifact.
"Claire, victory is yet to be determined." Alyssa answered.
'fufufu, it's impossible to win in this bet.' Claire's inner self.
"Claire, I'll also bet on Urs." Iris took out the Blood Tear Rank Unique Gem Artifact.
Iris knew Claire wanted to make an Epic Rank magic wand, so she needed a lot of precious materials. Although, the Blood Tears gem has a lower rank than the Yggdrasil Tree trunk. However, this material was as rare as the branches of the Yggdrasil tree, and was extremely valuable to vampires.
"Crow, are you serious?" Claire smiled happily.
"I'm serious if Urs loses I'll give it to her. I got this Artifact from a Dungeon."
"Crow, why are you so sure that guy can win? The artifact was extremely valuable even to the vampire ancestors." Claire whispers she doesn't want her identity as a vampire ancestor to be known.
"Maybe... A woman's instinct." Iris smiled.
Iris and Alyssa had seen how Lazarus had created miracles many times. They were very confident in Lazarus.
Jack opened Lazarus' second sedimentary rock, as he was about to finish off the beautiful blue sea light, emerging from the sedimentary rock, Jack's eyes wide.
"The Heart Of Ocean Rank Epic Jewel!" Jack shouted very loudly in surprise.
Everyone who heard Jack's cry went towards Jack, The Heart Of Ocean Gem is an extremely rare gem, even the price of its small piece is 10,000 gold Coins, but Lazarus gets the size of a fist.
Claire, Alyssa and Iris stood frozen watching it all.
"Am I dreaming? Urs gets the Jewel Heart Of Ocean." Amaryllis' feet trembled then fell to the ground, she was both envious and desperate at the sight of Urs' luck.
The man got the Heart Of Ocean gem. In fact, it was as big as a palm.
Whether the sedimentary rock came from the Underwater Volcano in the Caspian Sea Duke Leontios Region.
Sir, sell the Jewel to Felix Merchant Union, we'll pay it for 70,000 Gold Coins.
Sir, Sell the Gem to Diamond Rose Merchant Union, We'll Pay It for 200,000 Gold Coins
There was noise in the place, In fact, the gamblers from the upper floors descended to the first floor.
"Heart Of Ocean! It was true that the jewel of the first grade Epic Heart Of Ocean Rank." A well-built old man, wearing glasses and a bespectacled trench coat went towards Lazarus.
Old man! You can't overtake someone.
The old man stared at everyone sharply then took out his intimidation Aura. Everyone who was there fell to the ground.
'The terrifying aura.' inner Lazarus.
"Ha ha ha, Claire and Alyssa, I'm sorry for being disrespectful." The old man said.
"Adrian, though, you've grown older but your strength has greatly increased." Claire says.
What Duke Adrian Leandro! The eastern duke he was Duke Adrian Leandro the ruler of the eastern region of the Avalon Empire.
Iris and Amaryllis bowed slightly, welcoming the arrival of Duke Leandro.
"Greetings, Duke Leandro." Blossom slightly bowed while holding her dress.
"Beautiful little girl, are you Alastair's daughter." Duke Leandro snatched Blossom then went towards Jack to look at the Heart Of Ocean Gem. "Young man can you sell me a little Heart Of Ocean gem?"
"Your Majesty, I will give you a little Heart Of Ocean gem for you." Lazarus is a little bent.
"Thank you, and when I looked at your face more closely, you resembled Lazarus that bastard boy." Duke Adrian holding his chin.
"Your majesty, I cannot be compared to the noble Lazarus. My name is Urs, The North." Lazarus smiled awkwardly.
"You're more polite than him.. Just your face is almost similar." Duke Adrian took a deep breath.
'Master, what did you do to that extremely strong old man?'
'I only stole all of his precious materials, while making the Storm Bringer Claymore Rank Legendary Artifact in the past.'
'What!!'
