Casino Gone Wrong (1)

In the later afternoon...

Casino of Emperors – Macau, 2031

In the heart of Macau, where dreams and financial ruin go hand-in-hand, stood the Casino of Emperors—a palace of sin and silk, where even the toilets came with velvet ropes.

Tonight, the VIP Hall—The Dragon's Den—was packed.

The minimum buy-in? $1 million USD. 

The games? Ruthless. 

The stakes? Stupid. 

The air? Conditioned with arrogance.

A crowd of elite gamblers, casino magnates, and corporate royals had gathered around the Heaven Table, the highest of high-roller circles.

And right there—

Two teenage girls were casually playing against Asia's Four Gambling Masters in an intense round of Quantum Texas Hold'em.

Yes. That's a thing here.

And they were losing. Spectacularly.

Yet — Both stood perfectly calm.

Like they weren't gambling away the GDP of a small country.
