13 Chapter 12 Payment 2

Ray took the remaining hours playing slot machines. In order not to arouse suspicion , he removed his black hat and surrendered his bag in the lobby.

He exhanged several tokens and betted several thousands of dollars purposely losing some games to eat time.

He saw a young man with eyeglasses on the cocktail area and in order to kill time tried to do some conversation but the young man evaded him and went to some craps table.

On how the young man looked, he wore a black tuxedo with his hair all combed neatly. Seeing the young man looks compared to his, he just shrugged his shoulders and ordered a hard gin on the rocks.

For now let them enjoy their arrogance , once the plagues and disarters comes in they'll be begging for me to save their lives.. Ray thought as he slowly drank his drink.

After two hours his mana is now fully reflenished as he prepares yo go into the rest room a giant man with 2 bodyguards as large as him came over the cocktail area and ordered some beer.

Ray glanced at them for a while and turned his back, His target has come.. Jack Demsey, what a stroke of luck.

••••••

Jack demsey was drinking a high end tequila as he was talking to the bartender, he had this daily routine to inspect his operation's quality.

He would first drink a glass of tequila and would roam and speak to regular customers, He like controlling things and people.To make sure his control is cemented he would go around inside his casino and make sure his presence is felt.

"How's the flow this time bart." Jack asked the bartender.

Bart is one of the bartenders in his casino,been serving Jack for the last 10 years. Asides from being a bartender, Bart is one of the people to notice any new people or suspicious people roaming.

"We currently have five mice inside and ten greenhorns,our dogs are currently monitoring their behavior boss."

"Make sure the mice spring the trap, I'll have barkley and Ivan take care of it." Jack then drank his drink all the way down. "Arghh! give me a stronger one, add more ice!"

"Yes boss."

Jack drank it all the way before noticing the person who wore a black cap. "Is this one of the mice?" Jack asked bart while looking at the mn who has his back turned.

"No boss, just a greenhorn.. He already lost several thousands in the poker and slots, probably some ordinary employee enjoying his salary." Bart whispered on Jack's ear.

Jack carefully looked unto the man, he had an ill feeling on this guy and his guts tells him that this guy is dangerous.

"Throw him out, make sure to clean all his pockets and get his I.d." Jack ordered his two guards with him.

The two guards moved toward the man wearing a black cap, they already know the basics and knows Jack temper especially when their boss strange sense of danger activates.

••••••

Ray already heard what Jack ordered with his men. with his sense of hearing many times better than an ordinary man, it gave him the advantage to eardsdrop on anyone's conversation near him.

Since the two big men will be coming his way, he stood up and proceeded towards the lobby to get his bag.

As he glanced behind him, he already saw the two big men almost near him.

He then went into the rollete table , saw that the game is currently off and betted $5000 on one go for the number 12 The two guards stopped behind him as they waited for the game to finish but never took their eyes on Ray.

"Let's see if my luck would suffice this time." Ray acted worriedly and grasped his hands together. "Come on lady luck, shine your star with me tonight!"

"Going once! Going twice! Roll!" The man in charge shouted and rolled the dice!

Ray looked into dice and using the mana around him,controlled the dice into the 12 spot!

"Woah! I won! Give me that!" Ray jumped and acted to get the cash!

The two guards were swift and grabbed him under his arms carrying him away into one of their dark rooms!

The personnel at the lobby grabbed his bag and looked inside were he found thousands and thousands of cash! He then went to his Boss jack and gave the bag whispering also what was inside.

Jack smiled as he saw the money in the bag,he then threw the bag into one of his henchmen.

"Put it into the vault. Ivan, Marco go with him!" Jack ordered. "I'm gonna step on some mice!"

"Yes boss." Marco and Ivan replied, they were two of Jack's loyal guards.

Marco stood 6"6 and had a dark skin with blonde hair. He was a former Karate and Taekwondo Champion!

Ivan was a former UFC medium weight champion,although he had retired due to some injury his skills is as well polished as before!
