My Slayer System: Rise to Supremacy

Chapter 205 Casino

After leaving the shop, Peter, Helen, Alex and Berg were on their way to find the person who Helen said she trusted so bad so they could find the information they needed out.

"Did you really had to battle with that guy for the armour?" Alex asked Peter.

"He asked for it okay, I didn't want to fight but when he placed the armour down for a bet, I couldn't resist." Peter replied.

That was when the four of them all received the same notification on their system screen at once.

{I might be back late, so try and gather information and I will do the same on my end. When we get back, we would share whatever we found and try to formulate a plan. One more thing, please stay out of trouble.}

"Oh boy!" Alex slapped his forehead loudly. "We practically did the opposite of what Jake said to do."

"Well it's his fault for sending the message late." Peter shrugged as he held the casing which the armour he got was in tightly.

"So where are we going to find this your guy?" Berg asked Helen.

"I had already sent him a message to meet somewhere secluded and he replied back telling me where to meet him so that's where we are headed." Helen replied as they kept on walking around the streets for a few minutes.

And then they stood in front of another establishment. This one was quite different and grand compared to the inn the left from. Then Alex and Peter looked at the sign hanging above the building and they were now confused.

"A casino?" Alex asked.

"What's a casino?" Peter asked which earned him stares from Alex, Helen and Berg.

"Right, you are from a small town so you wouldn't know what this is." Alex said which earned him a frown from Peter.

"No offense dude, anyway, a casino is where rich merchants and probably rich adventurers come to gamble away their money in the hopes of earning more." Alex explained.

"So we are meeting your guy here?" Peter asked Helen.

"Yes, and we have been standing here for too long, let's go in now." Helen said as she was about to push the door open but it opened on its own.

They all walked in and immediately were hit with loud heavy music and tables scattered around with people on it playing all sorts of things.

Then they could see people dressed in purple suit at all the different tables that had people playing games.

Peter stared in amazement as he could see that a lot of money had been spent here.

"C'mon let's go." Helen said as they walked around the place trying to identify Helen's guy.

While they were walking, they received stares from almost everybody which was quite odd to them.

"What's with them staring at us?" Peter asked.

"It's our clothes." Alex replied and then Peter raised an eyebrow.

Alex just sighed. "Look around you."

And they all did. When they looked around, they could see what Alex was talking about. Everybody were dressed elegantly trying to show off while they were dressed quite poorly.

It was clear that their dressing didn't fit this place but they all shrugged the stares off.

That was when Helen spotted the person she was meant to see sitting on his own while sipping something and he also had a hood up covering his face.

They all approached him together and then they sat down on the chairs that were around the man.

"Hi Steve." Helen greeted.

"Miss Helen." Steve said as he looked up and quickly bowed slightly to her.

"Hope you didn't encounter any trouble on your way here?" Steve asked. Then everybody turned to look at Peter who was now scratching his head nervously.

"No, we didn't." Helen replied.

"It's so good to see you again miss Helen, we miss your father and all the good deeds he did for this city. But when Blip took over, he made everybody's lives miserable." Steve said.

"And that's why we are here." Helen said. "We need your help, we need any information you have on Blip so we can take him down."

"What?!?!" Steve said. "Miss Helen, how do you plan on doing that? Even the Rave lord wasn't able to do so even with all his strength, he couldn't best Blip."

"That's because he did it alone. But I won't and that's why I asked for help." Helen said.

"What help and from who miss?" Steve asked.

"From them." Helen said while pointing towards Alex and Peter.

Looking at the people Helen was pointing at, Steve raised an eyebrow of confusion.

"Ha!" Steve laughed. "I'm sorry for the laughter miss Helen, but how do you expect kids to help you in your conquest? They are not even many, just two kids and you expect to take down Blip?"

"I'm sorry miss Helen, I won't want to see you dead, so I won't tell you any information I have. Please pardon me." Steve bowed slightly and was about to leave.

"Hold on!" Berg said.

"You are a C rank adventurer right?" Berg asked and then Steve turned around.

"Yes, why?" Steve asked.

"Then you must have a level of strength right?"

"Correct." Steve replied.

"So how about challenging one of them to fight and see for yourself if we can do this. And mind you, these are not the only people here for help, their leader is also in the city and I can bet it with you, with the three of them, they could defeat almost anybody." Berg said.

Berg was currently bluffing right now because he knew it wasn't possible to beat Blip with just Jake. Sure he was strong, but strong enough to beat the leader of a whole guild that was the third strongest, it was very much unlikely.

The reason Berg said all these was for Steve to trust them enough to release the information they needed to take back their city.

"Fine, I will take you up on that offer." Steve said. "And if they don't meet my expectations, I'm sorry miss Helen, I won't say anything."

Now, everything all depended on whether one of the two men would be able to pull it off. Sure, they knew Jake was strong and so was Alex since he had made his mark on the day of the battle with the werewolves.

But strong enough to beat a C rank adventurer, they weren't that sure.

"So where are we going to do this?" Alex asked with his arms folded as he looked almost bored. Discover stories at empire

"Here of course, the people here do love a good show so why don't we give them one." Steve said as he pulled up his longsword and pointed it to Alex.

"I choose you, you look the weakest among the two of you." Steve said.

"Me?" Alex pointed at himself then he chuckled. "Fine, I need to stretch a little bit so how about I use you for my stretching. It has been long I fought with humans and seeing Peter fight earlier with that strong guy, just makes me want to fight more." Alex said as he pulled out his giant sword that was strapped to his back.

The people seeing this, cleared the place so they wouldn't get caught up in whatever was going to happen. Meanwhile, two people were amidst the crowd trying to see what was going on clearly.

"Do this people just enjoy fighting?" A man asked himself quietly.

"I have felt the other one's strength, let's see how good this one is." Andrew smiled.

After the whole place was cleared, the two opponents stood in the centre of the room with their weapons drawn.

"A word of advice, if you are planning to hold back, then don't. Because I assure you, you won't even be able to draw out my full strength." Alex said.

"How arrogant!" Steve shouted as he dashed towards Alex in anger.
