“3 KING”
–lololol
–lolol
–“Stop lying, you little…” lolol
–草 (lol)
A chill settles in the air. It’s like a dagger has pierced my heart.
But don’t worry. My hand is faster than my eyes—actually, wait, that’s not right.
“Heeeh, Nacchan. Don’t you know that when you lie, you’ve gotta mix in a bit of truth?”
“…”
“You’re not saying anything. Did I hit a nerve?”
“Natsu, you dummy~♪”
“Liar!”
Inari shouts “Liar!” as I place down my three cards on the table, all face-down.
One, two, three.
You’d think at least one of them might shine red, but when I flip them, they’re all blue.
All three are valid cards.
“N-no way! I played two Kings myself! This makes no sense!”
“If you’re not certain, don’t challenge me—didn’t you know?”
“Grr, guuuh…!”
“Also, that’s not really three ‘Kings.’”
Among the three revealed is not the man with the crown, but instead a card depicting a joker.
Right.
In this game—Liar’s Gamble—there are four “valid cards” each round, plus one extra “joker card.”
So there are 4 valid cards in total, but if you include the joker, that makes 5.
Inari lost because she failed to account for the joker.
“A j-joker?!?!?!”
“Pick up the gun, Inari.”
“Kuh…!”
“Lots to think about now, huh?”
I curl my lip into a smirk as I speak, and Inari groans with frustration. She never suspected me when I confidently slapped down three cards. A rash choice leads only to ruin.
(Though maybe she still has a slight chance left—)
Click…
“You’ve got a 50% shot. Will you beat the odds and live? Or—”
“Nacchaaaaaaaaan!!!!!!”
Bang—!!
So this is how it ends. The gunshot rings out, cutting through the silence. I shake my head. I thought we’d get a bit more mileage out of that round, but she lost with only a 50% chance of survival.
[This game’s winner is Natsu!]
“Ohoho, I won this time.”
–Nacchan! Nacchan! Nacchan! Nacchan!
–Nacchan really is a master of mind games lol
–Her acting all uneasy was superb haha
–Honestly, it’s also Inari’s fault for not doubting someone who played three cards…
–But if she herself had one King, who’d suspect the other three were all with one player? lol
–Bad luck on Inari’s part, I guess haha
I chuckle, puffing out my chest triumphantly. Inari slams the table in frustration—she’s never come in first before, so it’s gotta sting. Not that I feel bad about it at all!
“Kuuuh… I’ll curse you. I’ll curse you, Nacchan! In the name of the Fox God, I’m totally gonna curse you!”
“Not scary in the slightest~”
Anyone who’s never once come in first place can’t scare me with a curse. If she’s so upset, she should try winning, right? I snicker at Inari, and her fox ears boing straight up in anger.
–lololol
–Even if Inari curses you, it’s not scary at all lol
–I doubt she can even cast a “real” curse lol
–Seems unlikely Inari will ever get 1st place haha
–Inari getting 1st is about as rare as Nacchan getting dead last… haha
–Well, maybe Nacchan could get last…
–Even if Nacchan came in last 10 times in a row, I still can’t see Inari getting 1st haha
“Come on, there’s no way I’d get last 10 times in a row.”
“Natsu, words can come true, you know.”
“But 10 times in a row just doesn’t make sense, does it?”
Unless someone can see all my cards, finishing last 10 times in a row is practically impossible. Even Inari hasn’t lost 10 times consecutively.
“Liar!”
“Alright, sure. This is only the first round—”
And yet, in this world, “never say never.” No matter how good I am at mind games, I can’t always get the best hands, nor can I always fool everyone. So if someone calls my bluff, I might have to pull that trigger on myself eventually.
But—
Bang—!!!
“Whaaaat?!?!”
–lolololol
–She got shot on the first try again? lol
–Nacchan’s had it happen four times in a row now?! haha
–No matter how unlucky you are, to get the bullet on the very first shot every time…
–Might mean Inari’s curse is working haha
–Who plays Russian Roulette with an automatic pistol anyway??
–At this rate, she might actually lose 10 times in a row haha
Ever since that so-called “curse,” every time I pull the trigger, the bullet fires on the first shot. Now I’m on a four-loss streak. We’ve got a ways to go before hitting 10, but I can’t help feeling a vague, ominous chill in my gut.
“…Surely not? No way… right?”
“Natsu, you loser~♡ You loser~♡”
“Argh, could you not mock me?!”
Koyuki’s teasing only makes me angrier. It’s not just the words themselves but that I can feel how genuine she is about rubbing it in that gets me so riled. Why am I so mad, Yeoreum?
Calm down, calm down. It’s just a game, right?
It’s not just a game!
“One more round!!”
–If you’re gonna keep going, that’s fine by us lol
–Until you lose 10 times in a row, right?
–Watching Nacchan get wrecked is hilarious haha
–Her frustrated screams are too funny lol
–Honestly, quitting before hitting 10 is the winning move haha
–Inari still hasn’t gotten 1st, though haha
Viewers crack up as I insist on another match. They’re hoping I’ll actually rack up 10 consecutive losses. But I refuse to get last again. Fine then. I’ll turn your laughter into roars of applause. I won’t let some silly “curse” from Inari get the best of me!
[“No Certainty, No Bet—Got it? U Namssaeng?”]
(Inari “folding” to Sakura-chan and losing an arm .JPG)
“Is it Sakura-ne? Or Sakura-yo?”
> ㄴ[She never suspected there’d be a joker lolololol]
ㄴ[Inari’s meltdown was glorious haha]
ㄴ[??? “If you’re not sure, don’t risk it—didn’t you know?”]
ㄴ[←lolololol]
ㄴ[Today’s stream is so good haha]
ㄴ[But wow, why does Inari suck so much at this?]
ㄴ[←Looks like she sucks, but rumor is it’s all roleplay…]
ㄴ[←(Inari’s not a total idiot emote)]
ㄴ[Who’d have thought the protag was this good at these kinds of games?]
ㄴ[←It’s not that she’s good, it’s that Inari is just that bad…]
ㄴ[←No truths allowed here, hush. lol]
ㄴ[lol how can there be “3 Kings” if Inari already played two?!]
ㄴ[←Statistically impossible!!!!!]
[“Fox God Just Cursed Han Yeoreum??? (shivers)”]
[(A silly fox god wiggling her ears, casting a “curse.”.MVI)
If nothing else, Inari’s curses are legit when she’s having a childish tantrum, I guess???]
> ㄴ[“Legit when she’s in a bad mood” lmao]
ㄴ[←And it’s not the first time, either haha]
ㄴ[Man, Nacchan is doomed… Heard some viewer who teased Inari ended up on the toilet all day once lol]
ㄴ[←Now our protag might be stuck on the toilet all day?]
ㄴ[A toilet broadcast… interesting…]
ㄴ[←(Natsu: “Have you lost your mind?” emote)]
ㄴ[←(Natsu: “Harsh punishment” emote)]
ㄴ[Inari’s “curse” is probably just luck, come on haha]
ㄴ[←But apparently if Inari’s poison sacs burst, that “curse” is skill-based…?]
ㄴ[←Wait, curses have “skill” requirements now? lmao]
[“That Curse’s Performance Is No Joke lol”]
(4 times in a row, the bullet fires on the first trigger pull .MVI)
What are the odds, right? Out of 6 bullets, the first shot was live 4 times in a row??
After seeing this, I’m never teasing Inari again.
Anyone thinking of playing Russian Roulette, do not tease Inari beforehand, 100%.
> ㄴ[Like we’d ever actually play Russian Roulette…lol]
ㄴ[The protag’s using an automatic for Russian Roulette…]
ㄴ[←Shouldn’t an automatic be for shooting others, not yourself???]
ㄴ[←Natsu clearly doesn’t want to shoot herself on purpose, haha]
ㄴ[For real, the real MVP is Yukitoki, who’s 100% teasing the protag, no joke]
ㄴ[←Agreed lolol]
ㄴ[←At a glance, they’re just sisters messing around haha]
ㄴ[Yukitoki’s voice aside, her laugh is identical to the protag’s…]
ㄴ[←FYI: They’re twins. Twins are basically considered the same person, y’know.]
ㄴ[If the protag actually loses 10 times in a row, we’ll treat you to “bugs.” ㅇㅇ]
ㄴ[←Deal]
ㄴ[←Deal]
ㄴ[←Deal]
ㄴ[←Deal]
ㄴ[←That’s a dangerous proposition…]
ㄴ[No way she’ll lose 10 times in a row haha]
ㄴ[You’d better run before it’s too late…]
ㄴ[(Natsu: “Hurry, run!” emote)]
ㄴ[BREAKING: Natsu just lost 8 times in a row, lmao]
ㄴ[Now it’s 9 times in a row, rofl]
ㄴ[All that’s left is the bug-eating. lmao]
ㄴ[Buuurp~ Thanks for the meal~]
