360 Chapter 360 Going to a Casino

Aldred scoffed. "Didn't my wife tell you about my adventure?"

"Everyone brags, boy. You think I will believe that you can defeat a Platinum Rank monster?"

"We'll see about that."

Four Ultra Golems appeared beside Aldred, and they burst into a powerful life force akin to that of a Platinum Rank.

The smile on Eneth's face disappeared. "Impossible, how can you have Platinum Rank golems?! And not just one, but four of them?"

"There are many things that my wives haven't told you yet." Aldred grinned.

The four Ultra Golems charged at the undead with blurring speed. The Spellswords on their hand activated, absorbing the green mist and dark aura which caused the undead's defense to drop sharply for a short moment.

That moment was enough for the Ultra Golems to cut it to pieces.

SHIING! SHIING! SHIING! SHIING!

Four slashes at the same time, and then, the undead roared before exploding into a mist.

Eneth wore a terrified expression on her face as she retreated a few steps. "No… this is impossible! This cannot be."

"What is impossible?" Aldred's voice came from behind.

She was about to turn back when a long blade pierced through her stomach from the back. She grabbed Aldred's hand, a dark aura entering his body.

Aldred laughed. "I forgot to tell you. I am also a necromancer."

Dozens of undead appeared in the room.

Eneth could not believe her eyes. "You're a swordsman, a golem master, and also a necromancer?"

"I am also a magician."

Aldred released his hand from the sword, and Eneth's body floated before turning around and facing him.

Eneth spat out blood, trembling. "What will you do to me?"

"I will absorb your lifespan, and give you death."

"No, I can be your subordinate. I will do as you tell. Wait, put a slave spell on me! I will do anything! Just don't kill me!"

"You're more useful dead than alive. Accelerate Aging!"

Aldred's eyes turned purple as he absorbed Eneth's lifespan. One of the reasons why Living Eyes could live so long was that they could absorb someone's lifespan. They could also increase someone's lifespan, but there is a big limitation to that. Some curses or diseases cannot be fixed by increasing their lifespan. Richa's situation was probably like that.

"No!" Eneth's old body got older. Her skin wrinkled and folded like paper before her whole body got drained.

Right at that moment, her body exploded with a powerful dark aura that shot upward, blasting the house, and releasing thousands of screeching screams from her victims.

Her whole house shattered like glass, and all of her curses disappeared.

The family of the victims were shocked and were so happy about their child, husband, and wives that they returned to normal.

Hundreds of families were affected by this curse, and when it was all finally gone, they hugged and cried in tears.

They were all wondering: who broke the curse?

A young lady with beautiful golden hair was standing on the hill where the shrine of Azar was.

"Elean? Is that you? The curse… it disappeared!"

An old woman said in shock.

Elean smiled sweetly. "Yeah. It disappeared."

"But how did you look young again? Don't tell me the disappearance of the curse brought some side benefits?"

Elean kept her smile as she looked into the distance. "Maybe, who knows."

"I am going home. My brother, I want to make sure he loses the curse."

Elean did not look at her friend as she ran home. Her eyes were locked in the distance where a particular man was standing.

"Aldred, huh?" An ethereal image of a pair of wings flickered on her back before it completely materialized.

She turned around and whispered. "I hope to see you on the Island of The Thousand Gods soon." She flapped her wings and disappeared.

…

"Aldred! Are you okay?" Bartrem shouted as he brandished his weapon. The soldiers prepared for battle behind him.

He looked around. "What happened to the house?"

"Things happened." Aldred sighed.

"Why are you sighing, Aldred? You defeat the Necromancer." Mary tapped his shoulder.

"It feels like a waste. I defeated her, yes, but we got nothing. No reward, no secret treasure, nothing. At least leaving a few coins or something. What a poor necromancer."

If Eneth heard that comment, she would die twice from the emotional damage.

"You know, I saw a casino on the way here. Maybe we can forget about all of this, and have fun," Sophia said.

Mira sighed. "Gambling is not a good habit."

"Hey, it's fine. Aldred here earns a billion gold coins per day or something. A few chips here and there should be fine," Rachel said.

"Gambling is a sin only for poor people." Aldred laughed.

They all then went to a casino. The casino wasn't like what Aldred imagined it would be. He had never gone to modern casinos before, but he had seen them in movies where people sat at a table and threw cards, balls, or dice.

There were things like that in this casino, but there were also other games. Not the slot machine though, it was more traditional…

"Cup guessing! Come and double your money!"

"Cup guessing! Come and double your money!"

A man was calling as he prepared a table with three cups on top.

Aldred approached the man. "How do I play?"

The man smiled. "It's very simple. Do you see this small rock? I will put it in one of the three cups and swap them around. If you can guess where the rock is, you can double your money."

"That's easy."

Zafrina frowned and whispered: "Aldred, this game is commonly known as a fraud. You cannot win this game."

"Don't worry about it." Aldred smiled.

The man smiled as well. "Alright, how much will you play?"

"One."

"One thousand gold coins? Alright."

"One billion gold coins."

The entire floor of the casino suddenly became silent.

The man gave an awkward laugh. "That's a funny joke, Sir."

"I am not joking." Aldred showed his adventure card.

"Sir, I don't have one billion gold coins."

"Then how much do you have?"

"One million gold coins."

"Okay, I will play with that."

The man sighed in relief. He put the rock on the table and put a cup to cover it. He then placed the next two cups.

"Because we are dealing with a lot of money, we will go two out of three."

Aldred nodded with a smile. "Sure."

The man then placed a crystal that created an anti-magic field. "I hope you don't mind."

The anti-magic field crystal could prevent a magician from creating a spell, but it was very easy to destroy. Simply exuding enough mana would break the field, but that would let everyone know that someone is using magic and the game wasn't valid.

"I don't mind at all." Aldred smiled even wider which made the man nervous.

"Okay, I will begin now." The man began to swap the cup left and right. At first, his speed was slow, but it got faster and faster until his whole arm looked blurry.

The man smiled. Nobody could see his hand.

Meanwhile, Aldred was crossing his arms with a smile as he watched this.
