Description

Cursed. Royal. …Currently unemployed. Princess Seventra of House Veil was once the kingdom’s most notorious gambler—until a bitter rival framed her for cheating and her family cast her aside like a bad habit. Now she’s exiled, bitter, and desperate for revenge. But Seven isn’t done playing. When she traces her rival to Lucky Mining Corporation, a corrupt corporate empire of contracts, greed, and dice shards, Seven takes a job there to find evidence to clear her name. Beneath the gold lies something darker—vanished miners, buried magic, and a conspiracy that ties back to her own bloodline. Armed with a gambling problem, a wise-cracking slime, and a lawyer-turned-miner, she’s ready to play dirty. But the deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes: her curse isn’t a flaw—it’s a weapon. And if fate won’t play fair, she’ll load the dice herself. What to Expect: - Fantasy with my take on light LitRPG and progression elements.- Starts rough/serious for the MC and grows more comedic as the story goes on.- Slow build from failure to competence. Early chapters focus on struggle and setup before power growth kicks in.- Some light HUDs throughout, mostly related to the dice. What Not To Expect: - No walls of blue windows, level-up screens, etc. Use of such objects is light. - No instant wins all the time. MC WILL lose sometimes. - In case the first point wasn't clear, NO system.
