"Shake the dice~"

Aozaki Touko crossed his legs, staring at the sweaty dealer, and urged impatiently. On the side, Root Shiki's beautiful face was smiling, watching this playful gambling.

Although this is a casino under her family's name, she doesn't seem to care about the casino's losses.

"Shake it quickly... Do you want to reject the gamblers?"

"Yes, admit defeat~"

"Draw out a winning point."

"That's right, don't be afraid, trust your own skills and come up with something."

"It was just luck before, but now you can do it!"

"Trust your skills!"

The surrounding gamblers were booing and constantly putting pressure on the dealer.

Although the casino, which has a strong desire to survive, refused their request to gamble, but for some reason, the casino did not drive away these two young ladies, but instead allowed them to continue to win money.

"Shut up, you gamblers!"

The croupier roared angrily at the crowd of onlookers. Then, he turned to look at the two distinguished young ladies, with an expression on his face that he was about to cry:

"You two adults, can you go play something else~"

He turned his attention to other gambling tables, and then found that the croupiers at those tables turned and ran away with a slight tremor, as if they were electrocuted, with no intention of sticking to their posts.

"Sir, Pachinko is actually very fun, with cool graphics and good music."

Seeing this scene, the croupier twitched the corner of his mouth, and then pointed to Pachinko in the corner.

He was already the most powerful dealer in this casino, but today it was like seeing a ghost. No matter how he shook it, he always lost. Even if the two eldest ladies reported their points in advance, he could not get the points he wanted to win.

This feeling... is like the probability is being manipulated by the two eldest ladies.

It made him feel strangely chilled in his heart.

"... But, I like to see people's expressions of pain even more~"

Like a demon, Aozaki Touko pursed his lips and smiled, "Do you understand? Humans are creatures that feel pleasure when they see other people being unfortunate. I am very happy that you have a fearful expression on your face now."

"Miss... if I continue to lose, I will be punished~"

The croupier lamented, feeling that life was a little dark.

"Then just win it back."

Aozaki Touko smiled slightly, "I will put all my bets this time. If you win, nothing will happen."

"..."

Upon hearing this, the croupier remained silent and did not answer.

This was the truth, but he was not confident that he could win money. Although the dice was under his control, he intuitively told himself that there was no way to win.

"These two adults... here is 10 million yen!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit came over, respectfully handed over a check, and said sincerely, "Please leave our casino, or go to the casino next door!"

"A small casino like ours... really can't afford for two adults to win like this."

He bent at 90 degrees and handed the check to Touko.

Seeing this, Aozaki Touko smiled a little, raised his hand to hold the hand of Root Shiki beside him, and left the casino without taking the check or exchanging the bet.

"Is this... letting us off the hook?"

Wearing a suit middle-aged man, he said something about the aftermath.

He felt that it was a bit unexpected. It seemed that these two young ladies came in to gamble purely for fun, and they didn't even take away a penny of cash.

"Who are they...?"

The croupier felt the cold sweat on his forehead and was greatly shocked in his heart.

This sense of detachment from treating money like dirt, this weird way of manipulating the probability of winning or losing,

Could it be that they are actually the reincarnation of the God of Gambling!

"——The eldest lady of our Aesse team, and her friends."

Kenmoku Akiryu squeezed out from the crowd, straightened his scattered suit, and then stretched out his hand to the person in charge of the casino. "I don't want the money I won from gambling, but you can refund me the money you exchanged for chips."

"... In other words, the two eldest ladies are actually our own people~"

The man in the suit middle-aged man said with a pained face, "Then why are they coming to the Ryougi Family casino? Wouldn't it be better to go next door to win money?"

"The two eldest ladies are not short of money~"

Kenmoku Akiryu said matter-of-factly, "And the casino didn't suffer any real losses. The two eldest ladies also experienced life. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

"——There is a loss!"

The croupier's eyes widened and he shouted, "I feel like I'm doubting life. No matter what, it feels like losing. Do you want to experience it?"

"..."

Seeing this, Kenmoku Akiryu was slightly silent, and then patted the person in charge of the casino on the shoulder. "I won't get back my share of the money. You can give it to this brother as compensation."

After that, he turned around and left the casino quickly.

The gamblers present were discussing the content of the conversation, describing the casino as noisy as a vegetable market. Some suspected that the casino was deliberately trying to attract people, while others truly believed that the two girls were genuine gambling gods.

However, in any case, the news about Miss Ryougi Family's great gambling skills spread to Kanbuchi City.

at the same time.

In a remote alley.

Aozaki Touko and Root Shiki found an old woman.

This is an older, somewhat fat old woman, wearing a decent black dress, an English bowler hat, and a black veil to cover her old face.

In front of her was a desk with a crystal ball for divination.

Obviously, this is the dress of a fortune teller.

"First meeting, Mother of Kanbuchi,"

Aozaki Touko said gently, "I'm here to predict the future. I hope you can give me an answer."

"Did you come to see me specifically?"

Mother of Kanbuchi nodded slightly and looked at the two beautiful women in front of him. "What do you want to divine..."

The words suddenly stopped, and her eyes slowly widened, as if she had seen an incredible scene, so surprised that she could not speak.

There is no future, no... a more accurate description is that one cannot see through the future.

The two beautiful girls in front of them seemed to be outside the so-called fate line, and no trace of the future could be seen. It was not because death stopped their fate, but there was simply no way to observe it.

"... Excuse me, is there any problem?"

Aozaki Touko asked politely.

Then, Mother of Kanbuchi came back to his senses,

Look at the two girls in front of you seriously.

"Who are you? You are definitely not ordinary people!"

It's not a question, but a determined tone.

The two girls in front of her were definitely existences beyond common sense, existences that surpassed her absolute future vision.

It might be a god, it might be an immortal, it might be a monster, but it is certain that it is definitely not an ordinary human being.

Because humans cannot escape the prediction of the absolute future.

Chapter 150 Is my daughter cute?

A lonely alley.

This is a place where the sun hardly shines.

In ordinary people's impression, it is usually a place where social worms and gangsters gather, always ready to rob passers-by or molest passing women.

In a word, this place is not suitable for ordinary people to come here.

However, right now.

"... Who are you? You are definitely not ordinary people, right?!"

Mother of Kanbuchi stared at the two girls in front of him.

These are two beauties who are incompatible with the environment of the alley. Their presence is as strong as the sun, and they are as eye-catching as the sun in this alley.

This kind of strong and unusual sense of existence... is definitely not something ordinary people can possess.

(Is it because I cannot sense the future because I am a time traveler, or because 'SHIKI' interferes with absolute future vision?)

Aozaki Touko raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled lightly and said, "I... well, I'm probably a Magecraft master, Aozaki Touko from Misaki City."

The reason why she came to Mother of Kanbuchi this time was because she wanted to check in for a trip. Secondly, she was curious about whether, as a time traveler, her future could be observed by the Absolute Future Vision.

If it could be observed... how far would it go in the future?

"... As for me, she is probably an ordinary girl~"

On the side, a gentle smile appeared on Root Shiki's beautiful face. She put her fair and delicate hands on her chest. "From Kanbuchi City Ryougi Family, the name is SHIKI."

"..."

After listening to these two self-introductions, Mother of Kanbuchi remained silent and speechless.

She happened to have some basic knowledge about both of them, and she had more or less come into contact with some information about a big figure like Aozaki Touko. After all, this was a figure that was strongly touted by the media on TV.

This kind of character has some strange abilities... I can barely understand them.

However, she knows a lot about the local Ryougi Family. Although Ryougi Family is pretty good,

However, there is absolutely no ability to cultivate an existence that is not within destiny.

"I cannot observe your future, and I cannot make any effective predictions."

Mother of Kanbuchi shook his head. "If you want to ask the reason, then I suggest you two find the reason from yourself."

"... Abnormal?"

Aozaki Touko turned his gaze to Root Shiki beside him. Seeing this, Root Shiki understood and answered, "If she can see through my future, it means that she is looking directly at Root, and at that moment she will disappear and die."

After saying that, she closed her eyes lightly, and then opened them again.

At this moment, the gentle eyes turned cold.

It's like completely transforming into a different person.

"... I see, it seems that 'He' has come out to date you."

Not too surprised, Ryougi Shiki glanced at Touko and made a judgment immediately. Then, she turned her eyes to Mother of Kanbuchi and the crystal ball on the table, and said coldly:

"Don't you already have the ability to see into the future? Why do you still do such futile things?"

Her hidden personality and her knowledge of Aozaki Touko are both characters who can see into the past and future.

However... with such great power, now he comes to make predictions from an old woman who is likely to be a liar.

This... could this be what people often say, love makes people's IQ lower?

Otherwise, it's hard to explain why such a boring thing would be done.

"Is this... for the date atmosphere~"

Aozaki Touko smiled sweetly and said, "Even if the prophecy is false, wouldn't it make people feel happy if they could hear the prophecy that we have a sweet future?"

"——When did we become lovers?"

Ryougi Shiki replied coldly, "The total time we have spent together is less than a week, and I don't remember anything about our falling in love."

That's right, although she was sure that the emotion surging in her heart should be love.

However, the memory that supported the love did not lay the foundation for it. This feeling of separation between emotion and subjectivity in her heart made her feel a little irritable.

Although she clearly understood the specific reason, she would not accept it calmly.
