Doubts were like an avalanche, with a non-existent rumbling sound, pushing and filling Jack's mind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

How did he do it? Soul? What does it mean? He knows me?

Without hesitation, Jack asked loudly:

"You know ......"

But Jack's words weren't finished.

At the sound of "Bang!" Shirley's petite body had already knocked over the chair and fell to the ground.

"Shirley!! "Daphne screamed and squatted down, she threw herself to Shirley's side, only to find that Shirley was blind, there was no breath in her nose, her delicate little face became pale, and in just a short moment, this cute Lori named Shirley was dead.

He's dead?

Jack's eyes widened, and he pushed the stool away and rushed to Shirley's side as well.

"Shirley!Shirley!" he cried out, watching as Daphne lowered her hands as if in despair. Jack took over Daphne's task, shaking Shirley's shoulders vigorously in an attempt to wake the sleeping beauty back, but, alas, Jack was not a prince.

"Forget it!" Daphne slapped Jack's hand away, glared at him fiercely, and said, "Don't be pretty! Shirley is dead!"

The cold and powerful voice was like a sharpened sword, piercing all of Jack's unrealistic expectations, and Daphne's face was full of anger and sadness, and she glared at Jack as if to say, "It's you, it's you who hurt my sister!!."

Jack was stunned, yes, from Belen's words, he could simply deduce that Belen knew who he was, and that Belen's target was exactly him. Because of this, Belen constantly persuaded Jack to have a game of gambling with him, and Shirley was undoubtedly the poor and innocent victim of this confrontation.

"Is it because of me? Did I hurt her?" Jack couldn't help but ask himself, staring at Devany's blue eyes, as if he saw the deep reproach and uncontrollable anger in them, but what a sad expression it was, as if instantly haggard, and all smiles were like withered flowers, withering and dying with the blonde hair—in the face of such an expression, it was difficult for Jack to stop his irrational self-condemnation.

Finally, it was Daphne who called him off.

"That's enough, Jack, I know what you're thinking!! but your self-reproach is useless, because the real murderer is still looking at the joke leisurely!" Daphne resisted the temptation to go crazy, she turned her head, her face full of anger, and yelled, "Belen Francis!! what did you do??? what did you do to Shirley?"

"Me?" Belen put away his hearty smile and pursed his thin lips, his eyes narrowed, his face was uncontrollable excitement and pride, and he said as a matter of course, "Of course I took her soul! Gambling, if you don't gamble your life, then what's the fun at all!Oh? Don't you see, little girl? Or is it a pity that asking such stupid and obvious questions highlights your innocence and cuteness, what a pity, Uncle Belen, what I hate most is a brainless little girl like you!!"

"Bastard, I'm going to kill you!" Devany's uncontrollable scream echoed throughout the restaurant. Everyone focused their eyes and began to whisper unique to the masses.

"Don't get so excited, yes, don't get so excited, it's just a normal quarrel, I can solve it!" Believe me......" As if he didn't want to make a big fuss, Belen glanced at the crowd of onlookers who were very curious and explained loudly.

The crowd paused for two or three seconds before putting away their curiosity and returning to their previous state.

"Bastard, you're going to kill ......" Belen's calm attitude poured another layer of oil on Daphne's anger, but her yelling was easily interrupted by Belen.

The eyes of several people focused on the chips that Belen had taken out in his hand, the small chips were all jade-colored, and Shirley's face was carved with horror and despair, and the carving was so lifelike that a ridiculous idea arose in everyone's minds.

"Hehe, hehe, hehe!"

Belen's laughter was full of mockery, and he held the chip and said fearlessly: "Come, I know you are full of hatred for me, then come and kill me! Kill me! So that your lovely little sister, oh, what is her name, this cute little kitten, she is going to die with me—yes, in that case, you will lose your last chance to take her back!"

"Is that Shirley's soul?" asked Jack, who had regained his composure.

"Of course ~ this is her soul, and such a soul, I still have so much~"

Belen snapped his fingers, and white jade chips suddenly appeared in the air, and he smiled heartily: "Every time, they are not serious at all, thinking that gambling is just a game of money. But, of course, gambling is gambling on life, it's just money? Hehe, it's naïve, it's naïve!Ah, by the way, have you ever heard of such a thing as "Heart of Destiny"!"

"[Heart of Destiny]!hmph!" Devany snorted, finally understanding what had happened before, "I see! A magic prop made by the Demon King who controls greed with his own heart, and an evil prop that the Demon King who is keen on gambling uses to plunder the souls of the losers!"

Devany poked Belen's left chest hard with her slender index finger, "That greedy heart is beating in your chest now!!"

"Right!" Belen's smile was so hearty that he bared his teeth, "What's the matter, do you still want to kill me? No matter if you force me or kill me, you can't get your sister's soul back, only by gambling with me, only by betting your soul, can you win back your sister's soul according to the rules."

"You cunning demon believer, well, I'll bet you!" Devany gritted her teeth, the passionate girl showing her strength beyond the ordinary.

"Wait! Devonne!" Jack admired her strength, but he had to stop her impulsive behavior, "Don't be so impulsive, shouldn't you think about what just happened? That guy won, and it wasn't by some kind of luck, he must have cheated!"

"Of course I do!" Daphne replied in a stiff tone, "Of course he cheated, no doubt, but I didn't have a choice, I knew he was a cunning fellow, but I only had one sister, I only had one sister, how could I just stop there!"

"Well, you're right, boy Jack, you're very perceptive, yes, I gave the waiter three gold coins as a tip to show me that I was holding a wine glass in my hand, so as to determine the order of the dishes to be put down. But isn't that what gambling is all about? If it's not caught on the spot, it's not called cheating!!

Belén exclaimed, with a fervent smile on his face:

"Hmph, have you finally admitted your insidiousness, villain!" said Devany sarcastically.

"Yes, that's right, whatever you want, but do you have any choice? Come on, come on, come and fight me!"

"Okay, yes, I'll bet my soul!" Devine slammed the table and yelled, "But, this time, it's up to me to choose the items to gamble!"

"Yes!" Belen nodded in satisfaction, "So, what are we going to play?"

"Let's play Coin Stack!"
