Chapter 208: A Female Proposing to a Male

Greed Island.

The gambling city—Durias.

Bathed in neon lights and the scent of alcohol, the atmosphere of gambling was exceptionally thick.

The overall style was very similar to Macau on Blue Star; casinos lined every street and alley, using the currency of 【Greed Island】.

When Luo Ge and Gon departed, Machi and the other two women came here to stroll around.

The largest casino.

Inside, it was a dazzling spectacle with every type of game imaginable, enough to make one's eyes spin.

"So many games, all unseen before."

"Compared to this place, the Ella Casino from back then was like a small witch meeting a great wizard."

Shizuku looked around in all directions, very interested in these novel things, though she preferred simpler ones.

For example, games like betting on big or small, or guessing the number of dots.

Machi nodded.

She also felt this place was far larger than the Ella Casino; truly worthy of being the biggest casino in the gambling metropolis.

Menchi, however, was not very interested in these things.

She came here mainly wondering if there were any ingredient cards among the prizes.

In the casinos of 【Greed Island】, players could obtain money, while higher-level prizes were cards.

Looking left and right.

Finally, Machi chose the slot machine.

Playing the slot machine required absolutely no operational skill; it relied entirely on luck.

Those with good luck would hit the grand prize, while those with bad luck would lose every coin they put in.

Machi sat in front of a slot machine, thought for a moment, then took Togepi from Shizuku's arms.

Luo Ge had not taken Togepi with him, but instead left it with them to carry.

According to Luo Ge, this little fellow would bring good luck.

"Toge-ki, Toge-ki."

Togepi waved its limbs, maintaining its usual positive and cheerful demeanor.

Machi gently stroked Togepi, then suddenly a multi-sided die appeared in her hand.

【B-30】 Risk Die:

This black die had a total of twenty faces; nineteen were Great Fortune, and one was Great Misfortune. Rolling Great Fortune would cause something extremely good to happen.

However, if Great Misfortune ever appeared, it would completely transform all the good fortune accumulated from previous Great Fortune rolls into misfortune.

This was a card Machi had bought in Durias.

Unlike other B-rank cards.

The 【Risk Die】 was relatively easy to obtain; as long as one had money, it could be purchased here.

Many gamblers relied on the 【Risk Die】 to make money in Durias, yet in the end, they all died because of "Great Misfortune."

From this, it was evident that this item carried risks.

Truly worthy of the name "Risk Die."

But with the good luck brought by Togepi, what would happen if she then used the 【Risk Die】?

Under the gaze of Shizuku and Menchi, Machi threw the die.

The twenty-faced die finally landed with Great Fortune facing up.

Machi's luck for what followed would be extremely good.

"Then let's see how effective this Great Fortune is."

"Toge-ki, Toge-ki."

After drawing Great Fortune, Machi felt a confidence that whatever she did would succeed.

Though perhaps this was also the good luck brought by Togepi.

Togepi and Great Fortune.

She refused to believe they wouldn't produce something good.

She pulled the lever, and the images on the slot machine began to spin rapidly, the three women's eyes following the motion.

A few breaths later, the spinning speed on the slot machine gradually slowed, and immediately after, the image froze at a certain instant.

777.

A very smooth sequence of numbers.

The beautiful eyes of the three women sparkled repeatedly with excitement.

At the same time, the slot machine began to shake violently, emitting an extremely pleasant melody of celebration.

This caused other players currently at the slot machines to cast their gazes over.

After hitting the grand prize, chips continuously poured out from below the slot machine, piling up into a small mountain in the blink of an eye.

Besides the mountain-like pile of various colored chips, a card also emerged.

【A-20】 Rainbow Diamond:

A gemstone shining with seven-colored light.

It was said that using this diamond as a gift to propose marriage guaranteed a 100% success rate.

As long as the gem was in hand, two people would never be separated.

One could obtain the 【Rainbow Diamond】 by hitting the grand prize using the 【Risk Die】 at the slot machines in Durias.

Because the 【Risk Dice】 has a great fortune rate of nineteen out of twenty.

Therefore, this card belongs to the easier-to-obtain tier within Grade A, and it is also the designated Card No. 79.

"Wow, a card appeared."

"It looks like something Biscuit would like?"

The two women were very curious.

Machi casually picked up the card, fell silent for a moment, then stated clearly: "【Gain】"

The next moment.

The card in her hand vanished abruptly, replaced by a large, colorful diamond.

Shimmering with myriad hues, it radiated magnificent colors under the lamplight, crystal clear and flawless, superior in every aspect of quality.

Although it fell slightly short of being one of the Seven Beauties of the World, it was still a top-tier gemstone anywhere else.

Machi was not particularly enthusiastic about jewelry.

She cared more about another point.

The card stated that holding this diamond while proposing marriage guaranteed a 100% success rate.

Then it should work even if a woman proposes to a man, right?

In the dim, hollow space, sounds echoed frequently.

Wisp after wisp of faint fragrance diffused outward.

Two humans and one beast advanced steadily.

"I say, have you ever thought about using this ability to earn something big?"

"What?"

"I think your Nen removal ability is ridiculously useful."

"You could completely rely on this ability to secure even greater profits."

He felt that in this world, only Luo Ge could achieve such a level.

Relying on this efficiency, which was a hundred or a thousand times greater than that of other Nen removal specialists, he could definitely generate higher returns.

Luo Ge's expression turned slightly odd; he turned sideways and extended his hand toward Ging.

Ging froze.

"What does this mean?"

"Give me money."

"You yourself just said my ability can create more value; shouldn't you give me a bit more?"

Ging:???

"Cough, cough, seems there's some movement ahead."

Glancing at Ging, who was changing the subject, Luo Ge withdrew his hand.

He was just speaking casually anyway; he hadn't actually intended to make Ging pay up.

For one, he didn't lack money.

For two, Ging had already paid the so-called "value."

That was Ging's favor.

After all, Ging had invited him here to help; when one invites someone to handle affairs, one naturally incurs a debt of favor.

If he were to make a request later, Ging would find it hard to refuse.

However, Ging wasn't just speaking randomly; there was indeed some anomaly ahead.

As Gengar swallowed another large mass of death Nen, the appearance of the depths became clearer.

The clouds parted to reveal the moon.

The mist-like death Nen grew increasingly thin until the scene behind it was completely exposed.

Yet, to the surprise of both, nothing existed in those depths; there was only an ordinary rock wall.

This was the end of the cave.

In other words, apart from eliminating a bunch of death Nen, their entry this time had yielded no other discoveries.

"Hmm?"

"That shouldn't be right? How could there be absolutely nothing?"
