Chapter 91 – The Truth Game (3)
13. Truth Game (3)
As Kaya grabbed my wrist and dragged me somewhere, I fell into even greater confusion.
‘Why? For what? Where are you going? Why did you come to Kayaman? No way, Shay really…’
We went inside, further inside than the building we stayed in. The Salem branch of the Church of Raella was larger than expected, but it wasn’t until the main building became considerably smaller that Kaya let go of her wrist.
“Hey, where are you?”
“Please go inside.”
“Uh…”
It was a very small building compared to the main building. I had no idea what purpose it was in such a remote place. I just gave up my doubts at Kaya’s urging and went inside.
Kiik-
Perhaps it was a building with few people coming in and out, and there was a jarring sound coming from the door. There seemed to be quite a bit of dust, but the important thing was the structure inside.
“Here…”
“This is the confession room.”
“Are you going to confess? Here?”
“I heard that it is a place for self-confession and self-repentance, with no nuns to forgive sins. The location is also great, and I heard that few people use it, so you can rest assured.”
“Relief… ?”
The already small space was divided into several partitions, and the inside of each partition was covered with dark curtains.
“Go in this way.”
Kaya led me to the middle partition. If I didn’t go in, I felt like I was going to be forced into it. No way, I had the mind to do something in this narrow space, and her grip on my sleeve gave me subtle pressure. Went inside smoothly.
Flutter –
The inside of the partition was wider than I thought. It seemed like it would be full with two people, but even with three people, there was still space.
That means Shay was already waiting for me inside the cubicle. It meant Kaya came right after her. She was surrounded from front to back.
‘No way, the reason for luring them to a place far away… !’
“Leader.”
“Omg!”
“Why are you so surprised?”
Kaya’s hand appeared from behind her and touched her shoulder. She trembled involuntarily.
Are you watching, you fright bastard? That’s what fear is. You don’t use any vulgar means like you and plant fear in me like this. Watch and learn
“Don’t move.”
“What, what? What are you trying to do?”
“Don’t move.”
“Kaya? Kaya! Hey, what are you doing hey, are you kidding? Uh?”
“Don’t move.”
“Oh, why are you so scared? Uh? There is a good means of our conversation, and the conversation is to look at each other’s faces…”
“Don’t move.”
“Oh, okay, okay! I know!”
Kaya’s hand on her shoulder tightened. Her shoulders screamed. Kaya, who easily subdued me, put a black cloth over my eyes and wrapped them around me. In an instant, the view was blocked.
Crackling- rattling- softly- tak-!
I heard the sound of things colliding and falling against each other. It’s not a big deal, but it came as a great stress because my vision was blocked in a narrow space.
“This one is done, sister.”
“I am done too. Can I release it?”
“Yes.”
Kaya’s hand touched the back of her head. Soon the world brightened. But in the meantime, a lot has changed.
In the space where there was only a small chair and black curtains, a sizeable round table and three chairs were placed at 120 degree intervals, and bloody tools such as canes, clubs, whips, and candles were placed on them.
“Where are you going?”
“Ka, ka, ka, kaya.”
“Hey, take a seat over there.”
She casually backtracked and bumped into Kaya. She was completely blocking her back. Again she looked ahead. There, Shay had already taken her place, and she was looking at me as she slapped her cane into the palm of my hand.
That motion seemed to tell her to shut up and not come soon enough to be whipped first.
I became a guilty person with my head down and sat in the seat to Shay’s left. Kaya, who had been following, blocked her entrance with something, and she sat down on the rest of the chairs.
“Leader.”
“Yes!”
“What are you so afraid of? You don’t have to be so nervous.”
“Oh no! Not scary at all! I am not nervous!”
Kaya and Shay’s faces twisted. It was only then that I realized belatedly that what I had just said sounded like an idiot. However, it was already spilled water. From now on, she decided to practice her words that if she stays still, half goes.
‘I’m not a trainee… Scared. It’s scary, guys.’
The cane in Shay’s hand and the whip Kaya was fiddling with made it hard to think rationally.
“Leader. What kind of building did I say this place was?”
“Unmanned confession… ?”
“You’re right. From now on, what we and the captain must do.”
“Is this a mutual confession?”
Mutual disclosure.
Confession was usually done in secret. The presence of partitions and black curtains was also a way to hide between the confessor and the nun who served as the proxy of the goddess who forgives sins. Otherwise, there would be significantly fewer people who would confess, and even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to confess.
However, there was no such thing as the mutual public confession they were talking about. We had to confess to each other in public, face to face. If you look at it up to this point, it was similar to the truth game, to put it bluntly.
But there was a big difference.
It was a penalty, that is, a penalty.
In the game of truth, if you can evade an answer at least once, or if you evade more then you will receive a light penalty like drinking or slapping your wrist…
“You have to ‘repent’ yourself as much as the weight you think.”
If there was something I couldn’t confess, I had to ‘repent’, that is, ‘harm myself’.
‘A different world medieval version of the truth game? .’
What’s even more crazy is that there is only one rule that requires repentance as much as the importance of hidden information. In other words, if you avoid confession and lightly hit the palm of your hand with a cane and move on…
‘Are you hiding information that weighs only that much from us? Don’t you believe us? Hmm, is that so?’
It was going to fire.
If the person who asked the question was hitting him, he could have passed it if he gritted his teeth and endured, but in that he only punished himself, he touched the issue of individual conscience and mutual trust.
Lies to avoid repentance?
It was to further break the trust with them. It was an act of destroying the future in order to overcome the immediate crisis. Besides, this is a monastery… It wouldn’t be strange even if there was a method to determine the level of authenticity. Just like when I made love with Shay in the dungeon before.
It was a very heavy and scary place, but… The cause was me. Have no choice but to accept
Don’t run away
Shay opened her mouth.
I silently nodded.
Kaya, who had been fiddling with the whip handle since earlier, cut her start.
“The captain asks for a confession. Leader.”
“Yes.”
“Captain, what do you think of us as beings? If you want to add weight to the truth in your words, just say it while holding the small statue of the goddess in her hand in front of her.”
I knew it.
It wasn’t like a mini goddess statue was placed between the hideous tools for nothing. Perhaps that will act as an authenticity reader.
I held the goddess statue in her hand without hesitation. There was no hesitation in answering. It was an answer that should not be hesitated.
“A loving lover, a great colleague, and a companion you want to be with for the rest of your life.”
“Oh…”
“Kaya?”
“Kuhm, big! Ah, nothing. Shay, it’s your turn.”
Kaya suddenly turned her head and cleared her throat. It looks like her face is slightly red…
“The captain wants to confess.”
“Okay.”
Since it was the first turn, I thought it was a problem to warm up. Looking at Kaya’s reaction, it seemed that the firm response worked better than expected. If it continues like this, it might end on a warm note… ?
“Captain, did you like it better when you hugged Sestia-sama? Better than when you hugged me?”
“…”
There’s no way.
Right away, the nuclear spicy taste question hit me.
You can’t hesitate. You have to answer right away!
It’s not as fast as before, but I managed to keep my composure, so I was able to answer quickly.
“Shay, I liked it better when I held you.”
“Huh? Is it so?”
“Of course.”
“By the way, why did you take her hand off this time?”
“Uh? I?”
Embarrassed, she lowered her head. It really was. Her right hand, which was holding her goddess statue tightly, was missing. I was really, truly bewildered. When did you take it off?
Turns out, the damn right-handed bastard was wiping the damp sweat on her thighs.
“Dah, I must have done it without even realizing it because I was wiping my sweat. Can I answer again?”
“You don’t have to do that… If the captain wants to do that, I won’t stop him. I have to.”
‘If I don’t do it, I’ll be fucked.’
No one here will fail to notice that that is irony.
Inwardly, I earnestly called out to Lady Raella, and answered the same as before.
“Huh…”
‘Sir, fuck. Is it wrong?’
The statue of the goddess covered by my right hand had only her head sticking out. It doesn’t look much different, but this suffocating atmosphere is… ?
“I see. Well, okay.”
“That, yes. Thank you.”
What is it, that lukewarm response of me being reluctant to let go because I looked pitiful. But now, good was good. There was no need for me to go out and ask.
“Ruler. It’s your sister’s turn again.”
“Uh?”
However, my turn was skipped as if it was natural, and when Kaya started to open her mouth again.
“The captain asks for a confession.”
“No, wait! My, my turn.”
“Captain, do you intend to recruit the next colleague as a female hero?”
“No, I have no intention of doing that! Both you and Shay were just girls after you recruited them!”
“I asked for the next colleague, chief. Smart man, please don’t obscure the point.”
The first problem, as if it were a tutorial, was cornered by Kaya, who threw sharp jabs and hooks.
“The captain wants to confess. Did you propose to recruit Cestia-nim?”
“Yeah, it was.”
“Did you think we would agree?”
“That… That’s what That’s why.”
I was driven into the corner, and Shay put a heavy straight into me.
“The captain asks for a confession. If the next ‘female’ colleague had a personal crush on the captain, would you hug him like me or Shay?”
“I don’t just hug her blindly because she’s a girl I like, but because I’m that close to you guys…”
“The captain wants to confess. If Cestia-nim could join the warriors right now, would the captain accept it?”
“Sestia, as you all know, is the highest-ranking healing nun, and if she hadn’t been there in the last battle…”
“Are you going to accept it?”
“That, so after discussing it with you guys…”
I felt like I was going to lose my mind. Tears flowed. I thought it would be more comfortable to leave after answering and to flog myself. So she stopped answering and turned her eyes to the cane for a moment, and Shay, who had grasped it like a ghost, grabbed it and hid it. That said, she couldn’t even think of using her whip or club.
‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry… I’m sorry for swinging your dick around…’
“The captain asks for a confession. I’m assuming a battle nun who’s much better than me appears before the captain. Her appearance, level, skills, equipment, and personality are all better than mine, but she has a similar story to mine and has a crush on the captain. In addition, I am seriously injured for some reason and am in a state of unconsciousness. Finally, the captain runs out of money. Would you like to leave me and take a new battle nun?”
“First of all, Kaya, there is no such ridiculous battle nun as you assume. If so, she must be the incarnation of Raella-sama. And secondly, it’s ridiculous to leave you alone and go into a dungeon when you’re not even dead. So there can be no such thing. Never.”
“Oh… Is that so?”
“Sister… ?”
“Big, big!”
I think I fed the counter because I answered mechanically. Shay was staring at Kaya, her face flushed.
‘Can I see the end?’
I had hope. She really thought she was honest and had nothing more to ask.
“If only, really. There are really great warriors. I like the captain, and he thinks he’s okay too. I think it can be of great help in breaking through the dungeon, the biggest goal of the captain. The captain really wants to recruit them. You will regret it very much if you miss it. But if me or my sister oppose it. No matter what happens, if that hero opposes… What do you plan to do?”
A shot from Shay.
“I am…”
I felt it intuitively.
That this question is the last gobi.
