The man sat at a table, patting his palm against it, he laughed! The sound of clanks that came from mugs and dishes choked in that.

"Hey, you noobs come to try a deck with me!"

Rave strode to the table to take his order. 

"Hey, you're a new bird! Do you want to give it a shot? I promise not to leave you shirtless."

People laughed.

"Why not?"

Rave found Oliver beside him. The man chimed in replying to buy time for Rave.

"But sir, I am not allowed!"

Rave pointed to his boss who was shooting him glares.

"Sir, let the kid play with us! I will pay you to double."

The Sargona man solved the issue, seemed he was crazy about playing star cards.

They sat at the table and all the men turned their chairs on them. Most of them were drunk, having ladies glued to them.

"Bets are on, I say the Sargona man would win."

Rave smirked, another man grasped the pride in his face and shouted, "I am betting on this kid!"

Oliver burst out a laugh, "no one bets on me!"

He dragged a chair for himself, spreading on it.

"Let's put out what we got!"

The bulky man said.

"Oldie, you first." He directed the eunuch with a shrewd smirk. He was so confident.

"Fine, three gold coins! If you catch the three stars!"

People cheered, this rich man was so certain of his winning. 

The Sargona's man's eyes gleamed. When he was that much generous, possibly he was able to toss more coins on this deck.

"I give out one gold if you win two stars."

Eyes averted on cringed Rave! These pals were too rich. He was like a kid that his eyes rounded, twinkling as he saw those rich daddies, his mouth running watery.

"I have only one silver coin!"

He uttered, received a blank look from Oliver. 

Stingy boy! Only his death could bring those coins back to Oliver's satchel.

"Hey, lend us, your lady?"

The Sargona man told the man who was laughing at them with the lady on his lap, glued his head on her half-nude breasts.

"What? Why mine?"

He shrugged, "this show needs a pretty dealer! Are you agreed, gentlemen?"

The presenters barked out for him. Rave was sure that Wilmore was watching him in a dark corner to see if he truly could win a deck. 

The tavern owner brought the pack of cards. This game all depended on lock because there were only three-star cards among all and the one who gains the first one could win but they could also continue for fun! But here was about gold and they could continue till the end.

"I chose the Fourth witch!" Said the Sargona man, this card could always bring him luck.

"I pick the Third peasant!" Rave uttered loudly.

"Why do you scream!" Oliver nagged as Rave was close to him.

"Sorry!"

"Fine, I am choosing the Seventh King!"

Colliding this folk entertained him, he peeked at the assassins at the table in the back corner of the Sargona man.

"Fine, let's see what dices can bring us, sometimes luck doesn't care what we choose!"

Rave remarked.

The Girl grabbed the cards and began to riffle them, she grabbed two of the dices and kissed them while blinking at Rave.

She tossed them on the table, they clicked and swirled, Rave's eyes glued on them.

"Three and four!"

"Seven cards go to this lucky oldie!" The bulky announced.

The girl shared seven cards with each and they began to play over the dices until the shares ended and they received their cards.

They tossed out the cards that the dices were choosing, Rave finally got worried as he found it hard to study their hands, sweat beaded on his face. 

Oliver won two tricks and the other one won three. Rave needed four and finally, luck wheel rolled on his side as the eunuch came up with the first peasant. Rave had four clovers and three peasants and if these fools played the high-valued cards then he could beat them in the next four tricks. As he predicted, the men were so proud and forgot what the clovers could do with those powerful cards.

"Kiddo! It is fine, it's just a game!"

The bulky man mocked, Rave raised an eyebrow and shoot out his clovers.

"I think these are enough to say who won!"

"Clover pack?"

People cheered for Rave, snatching the monies they won on him, he saw the prince flashing out after making sure he won.

The Sargona man's eyes circled, he had no idea what the tavern owner had given them! He thought that was the Wolf pack cards as he had four wolves but these cards were Clover pack! He was red, he just lost a golden coin to this little ass!

"This is ridiculous."

Oliver leaned back, sighing he tossed out the cards 

"I can't accept this! Let's go to Royal Tavern and play real!"

The man suggested and eager Rave who was gathering the coins on the table nodded, "I know a better place where the merchants go!"

The man's face flourished, the merchants were rich and fools, playing for entertainment not minding losing coins.

"I am too old for losing more than this. You youths enjoy!"

Oliver stood up and went to the door, with his guards hopped out of the Tavern.

"What do you think? Their colony is near the harbor!"

"Fine, I am joining you!"

Rave trapped the prey, yet wasn't sure what Oliver wanted from this man.

They crossed the streets, the snow lazily began to fall, Rave saw that shadows were following them. He was certain that Oliver would kill him not to leave witnesses.

Rave halted in front of the barn, the man looked at him blankly.

"Hold on a second, I am frizzing."

As he said the guards of Oliver took them under siege. Swords and pistols aiming Rave and the bulky's heads.

"Hey, what is going on?"

Asked the man, looking at Rave in astonishment.

"Hey, what are you doing, I thought you just want him!"

"You bastard!" The man shouted.

Oliver emerged out.

"Sorry, I don't like fools, so I will send you to the paradise you deserve to be."

One of the guards smashed a glassy vial and a cloud of smoke streamed out, their mouths were covered and Oliver kept his distance far enough.

Rave could not fight the potion. His vision ran blurry and his body gave in, grew asthenic. 

Wilmore watched them, would find more out about this mysterious night that they were reaching something.
