Chapter 328 Gamble Again?
Teppei, Yajima, and Macao went to the Domus Flau to re-register their guild.
Domus Flau is a place located within Fiore's capital city: Crocus. It is also a location where the Grand Magic Games is being held in four days. It is surrounded by mountains and trees. City buildings, including residential houses, can also be found near Domus Flau.
The Domus Flau appears to be a large, round, open battle arena that looks similar to a Roman arena structure and has no cover at the top. It has numerous arches in its walls and a large entrance. The Domus Flau also has four gigantic statues, each holding a staff with a big circle on top, which looks like Roman warriors that face inwards, surrounding the Domus Flau. Four gigantic chains can also be seen around the Domus Flau; each starting from a circular metal in the ground around the Domus Flau, connecting to circles behind the statues, and reaching down to another circular metal in the ground.
The interior design of the Domus Flau also similarly looks like a Roman arena. The arena, located at the center of the Domus Flau, is large enough to contain a town. There are three stages of the audiences' seats that are in circular form. The seats also have dividers with three arches in each, and four bigger dividers connected with the staves of the statues. Numerous arches can also be seen inside the Domus Flau which are just above the highest stage of the audience's seats, and are connected with the arches outside. There are also hallways and rooms in the highest layer of the Domus Flau.
Teppei didn't seem that amazed by this building since in his world he had seen a lot of things that were more amazing than this.
"What do you think?" Yajima asked.
"It's not bad," Teppei answered.
"I am curious about your guild, Yajima-san," Macao said
"Hahaha... you'll see them later in the tournament," Yajima said and didn't tell him about the details.
They went inside the Domus Flau and suddenly met someone that they didn't expect.
"King!" Yajima was surprised.
"Hahaha, Yajima. It has been a while," Toma smiled.
Toma E. Fiore is the King who ruled over the Kingdom of Fiore. He is a short man who wears striped overalls, held up by a belt at the waist, under a cape.
Both Yajima and Toma were short and they were quite familiar to each other.
"I have heard that you're going to make your own guild to enter the Grand Magic Games now?" Toma asked. he was quite curious since he had often invited Yajima to become a commentator in the Grand Magic Games.
"Yes. It's a small guild but they're very strong," Yajima was quite confident in their smile.
"Is this one of your members?" Toma looked at Teppei.
Teppei smiled, "Hello, King."
"His name is Teppei. He is also going to join the tournament later," Yajima said.
Toma observed Teppei and nodded, "Then, I can't wait to watch your guild later." He thought for a while and asked, "Where is the other member of your guild?"
Yajima smiled wriley and said, "They're in the casino."
"....."
"Casino?"
Yajima nodded in a tired face.
"....."
Macao who saw Yajima's face wasn't sure but it reminded him of the expression of Macarov when their guild caused trouble. He couldn't help but let out tears when he remembered the past.
"Well, your guild might be very interesting," Toma said while patting his shoulder.
"Yeah...."
Haru along with everyone entered the casino and he could see that this place was quite crowded.
"Haru," Tsunade opened her palm at him.
"..." Haru was speechless and asked, "Didn't I have to give you money earlier?"
"It wasn't enough," Tsunade said.
"...." Haru sighed and said, "Just play first. When you don't have any more come to me."
Tsunade nodded, "Alright." She didn't hesitate and walked to join the gamble.
Haru looked at Tsunade's back and it wouldn't be long before that woman lost a lot of money. He knew that it was impossible for her to win unless there was misfortune or trouble that was going toward them. He looked at Kouha, Shinobu, and Kuroneko, "You're not going to play?"
"I'll play then," Kouha said and walked to join the game that interested him.
"I am still underage!" Kuroneko said.
"Who cares about that?" Haru twitched his lips.
"Then...." Kuroneko thought that it was a rare chance and nodded, "Alright...." Haru had given her money earlier and she wanted to try to gamble for once.
"How about you?" Haru asked Shinobu.
Shinobu shook her head, "I am not going to play."
"Is that so?" Haru didn't force her and said, "Then, come with me. Let me show you my skill."
"It isn't good to earn money through gambling," Shinobu reprimanded him.
"I know that, but we're only staying in this place for a week or so and with the consumption of food of everyone we need money," Haru said and added, "Also, that Tsunade is going to lose a lot of money too...."
"Then, why is she playing?" Shinobu asked.
"Probably because of the thrill? I am not sure. Gambling in on her blood," Haru said and joined a roulette game, giving all of his money into the bet.
Shinobu was surprised by his action, "Is it alright for you to bet all of your money?" She thought that Haru was too crazy to do this.
"Gamble is also a form of my training too," Haru said and saw the ball start to spin on the roulette. He thought that he could also avert his mind from the side effects of his magic.
Shinobu saw the ball roll quite fast before ended up in the location where Haru had bet all of his money.
"Congratulations!" Everyone clapped their hands toward him.
"....."
"See?" Haru said while looking at her.
Shinobu snorted, "It's only a coincidence! You're going to lose soon!"
