Chapter 357: Chapter 357 - Letting off Steam(Part 2)

"Okay, I’ve got the chillies, so let’s get started...since I suggested it, I’ll go first. As for who’ll pick a truth or dare for me, let’s spin this bottle to decide. If it lands on me, we’ll spin it again," I suggested, before spinning the bottle, adding as it landed on Landis, "I’ll start off with truth, just to get warmed up."

"Er, alright...uh, how many women have you slept with?" He asked me after thinking it over for a while.

"Y-your Highness, that’s so inappropriate!" Protested Aries, her face turning red.

"What? I thought those are the kind of questions you ask in this game!"

"Yeah, exactly, there’s no need to hold back...I mean, that is kinda the whole point of this game, after all," I grinned in response.

"Right, what he said...don’t be such a prude, Commander," Replied Landis smugly.

"Wh-wha...!?"

"Alright, to answer your question, it’s three," I remarked with a wry smile.

"Huh, I thought it’d be more," Responded Argent in surprise.

Well, if we count my previous life, then yes. But I’ve kept the fact that I reincarnated here from another world to myself, so yeah.

"That’s my turn done, who wants to go next?" I inquired as I took a puff of a joint before passing it to Aries.

"Allow me...and I shall pick truth as well," Spoke up Landis.

"Cool, and as for who gets to pick a question for you, let’s see...," I replied as I spun the bottle, which landed on Satan.

"Before I think of a question, I’d like a bit of clarification. Based on the first round, I take it the goal of this game is to make the other players feel as uncomfortable and awkward as possible by asking them inappropriate questions, yes?" He asked me.

"Well, if they pick truth, then yeah...I mean, it’s not a must that you have to ask something that could be considered inappropriate, but asking more mundane questions kinda defeats the purpose of the game," I answered with a wry smile.

"Hm, I see...yes, that makes sense. So the goal is to ask questions that you wouldn’t normally ask in a normal conversation...in that case, King of Obsidian, here’s my question to you. Have you ever had lewd thoughts about your subordinate over there?" Inquired Satan as he nodded at Aries, who choked while taking a puff of the joint before coughing violently.

"Wh-wha...!?" She began to blurt out, before coughing even harder.

"That’s a good question, you picked up the vibe of this game fast," I grinned in amusement.

"U-uh, I’m not sure if I should answer that...," Muttered Landis as he averted his gaze.

"I mean, not answering is basically an answer in and of itself. After all, if it was a no, you wouldn’t hesitate to answer," Smirked Argent with a slight chuckle.

"Damn it...alright, fine, I’ll admit it! I may, on a few occasions, had such thoughts...I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed or embarrassed of, it’s perfectly natural," He huffed in response.

"I-I disagree, this is very embarrassing...," Mumbled Aries as she buried her face in her hands, her face turning red.

"You should really give her a day or two off to go out on some dates or something," I remarked wryly.

"C-can we please just move on?" She groaned before he could respond.

"Yeah, alright...so, who’s next?"

"I’ll go. And I pick dare," Spoke up Rhyle with a smile.

"And it looks like Miss Aries gets to pick a dare for you," I replied as I spun the bottle, which landed on her.

"Huh? Uh, okay, let me think. I dare you to, uhh...take off your shirt?" She responded uncertainly.

"I suppose that’s simple enough," He shrugged before pulling off his shirt and setting it down.

He was pretty skinny after he woke up from his coma, looks like he’s been working hard to get back into shape. He did do pretty well in the tournament too, it’s great to see how much he’s recovered.

"Let me go next, I’ll pick dare as well," Remarked Argent eagerly, as I spun the bottle.

"Oh, looks like I get to come up with a dare for ya, bro. Hm, how about-...?" I began.

"Sorry to interject, but if I may...I dare you to end your romantic relationship with my daughter," Interrupted Satan with a huff.

Huh, I thought he’d finally accepted Argent after their match during the tournament...but I guess he’s still not over it.

"Absolutely not...and I’m totally gonna tell her you said that," He shot back with a defiant smirk, before picking up one of the chillies and chomping on it.

"Hmph, you’ve got some backbone, if nothing else," He muttered as he averted his gaze.

"H-holy shit, that burns," Gasped Argent as he began salivating, tears welling up in his eyes as he started to sweat.

"How pitiful," Scoffed Satan saltily.

"You’re such a dick..."

Uh...I was supposed to give him a dare, but it looks like everyone’s just assuming that his turn is over.

"So, who wants to go nex-...?" I started to ask.

"I shall go...and I pick dare," Declared Satan, before I spun the bottle, which landed on...Argent.

Well, now, this should be interesting.

"Okay, I’ve got one...go tell Frielektra that you hate her. Nice and simple," Smirked Argent maliciously, looking kinda ominous with all the moisture on his face from the spice of the chilli.

"...well played," Grumbled Satan, before reaching for one of the chillies and picking it up.

He tossed it into his mouth and began chewing, before his eyes widened, a slight whimper echoing out as his mouth opened slightly...

"Aw, what’s the matter, can’t handle a bit of spice?" Chuckled Argent, as Satan let out a sharp gasp.

"Wh-what is this...why isn’t m-my regeneration getting rid of the pain!?"

"Probably because it’s not an injury. It’s like if you were carrying something heavy, your regeneration wouldn’t lighten the load. At least, that’s how I think it works," I explained with a shrug.

"Th-this is so unpleasant...!"

"I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t enjoying this," Chuckled Argent as Satan glared at him.

"Anyway, that just leaves you, Miss Aries. What will you pick?" I asked her as I glanced at her.

"Huh? Uh...okay, I’ll go with truth," She replied hesitantly, a look of dread on her face as I spun the bottle, which landed on me again.

Heh, she looks even more wary now.

"No need to be so tense, all you have to do is answer a question, nothing more. And my question to you is-...," I began with a gleam in my eyes, before trailing off as she swiftly grabbed a chilli and took a big bite.

"I-I...I didn’t like the look in your eyes, s-so I...yeah," She gasped as the spice hit her, her right eye twitching slightly.

Come on, at least let me finish asking before you decide...
