What Does a Gambler's Pair of Js Have to Do With GG?
"Kiiiiiit!!"
Sukmeheck gnashed her teeth at the callout from me and Liznet. Then, without warning, she slammed both hands down on the table.
**THUD!**
A loud crash rang out, and for a moment, silence fell over the room.
"S-So what?! Who cares about any of that!"
"What?"
"Nothing fundamentally changes! This is poker, not pocket billiards! Even if you shake my concentration, all I have to do is look at my cards and bet!!"
"Tch."
She had a point, honestly. Even if her focus crumbled for an instant, all she needed was to make her bet or draw decision in that very moment. This was a turn-based game, not a real-time one.
But I believe in you, Liznet! You've definitely planned for this next step too!
"If you're that confident, shall we move on to the next round?"
Refusing to back down, I started taunting Sukmeheck myself. Watching her tremble at the hands even as she straightened her posture, I stood up beside the table to deal the cards.
Showing off my nipple piercings, flashing Valerie and Fresia naked—we'd done all that already. So what would I use to break her focus next...
While I was mulling it over, the next round began, and with it, our counterattack.
Chips Remaining: 10 : 8
The two of them each put up one chip to open the round, and I dealt out their cards.
"Bet."
Sukmeheck added two more chips.
Coming in strong right off the bat. If that means she's rattled, I'd love it.
"Call."
And just like that, three chips apiece sat in the pot before the draw.
What now? Strip Valerie and Fresia again?
"One card."
I didn't even get time to think. Sukmeheck had already declared her draw, and I swapped out her card.
"I'll exchange one as well."
Liznet traded in a single card too.
If we're going to interfere, now's the moment!
"Valerie! Fresia!"
"Check."
Damn it! Sukmeheck beat me to it!
"A-Again... you're calling on us again, Hero?"
While Valerie was asking that, Fresia sprang to her feet and flung off her blanket. Fresia's white cock sprang right up along with her.
"Why the hell are you even hard?! What's the fuss about?!"
I shrieked in bewilderment. In response, Fresia wiggled her body and put on a show of being embarrassed.
"Aww~ but you said you wanted to see it, Hero~"
Damn it! I know full well I'm the one doing something shameless here... but this is the only way to shake Sukmeheck!
Swallowing my frustration, I glanced at Sukmeheck—only to find that after her check, she'd squeezed her eyes shut.
Just stripping isn't enough anymore.
"I check as well."
And so the third round wound down as the closing time drew near. The two players revealed their hands.
Liznet's hand—
♤1, ♢1, ♤4, ♥K, ♢K
Sukmeheck's hand—
♥3, ♥10, ♢10, ♣10, ♣K
Two pair against three of a kind. Liznet's loss.
Chips Remaining: 7 : 11
Liznet hadn't launched a single provocation this round. But there was no way her strategy was already over. As that thought crossed my mind, my eyes met Liznet's.
That's the plan, right? One more strike this round... this fourth round, right? Right—and this time Liznet bets first, so there's plenty of room for sabotage. Which means I'll have to do... something beyond just stripping...
Silently, the opening chips for the fourth round were placed in the pot.
Chips Remaining: 6 : 10
Pot: 2 chips
The cards were dealt to both players, and it became Liznet's turn to bet. In the meantime, I quietly stretched my hand out to the side and beckoned toward the two of them sitting in their chairs.
"I bet."
Valerie, wrapped in her blanket, scuttled over hunched in on herself, while a blanket-free Fresia strode right up beside me.
"W-Why are you coming over here?"
Sukmeheck looked a bit flustered.
"There's no rule against spectators standing nearby." "Yeah, yeah!"
Fresia chimed in to back me up.
"Besides, Liznet's already bet. Hurry up and make your call."
"I know! Tch..."
Clicking her tongue, Sukmeheck looked to the center of the table. Five chips sat there. Liznet had thrown in three more with that last bet.
"What the?! Going big, are we..."
She wouldn't have reacted like that normally. Clear proof she was being shaken. But even this wasn't enough to corner her... There had to be a reason Liznet bet so big.
"Fine. Call."
Saying that, Sukmeheck added three chips of her own.
"H-Hero... why did you call for us...?"
Valerie, hunched over in her bent posture, asked me.
"Something important is coming up. Please brace yourselves."
"For what on earth—!"
Yes... this interference play is the only thing that comes to mind right now...! And above all...
Above all...
my lower belly has been burning up for a while now and it's driving me insane!!
While I was suffering, the draw phase flew by in an instant. Liznet swapped two cards, and Sukmeheck swapped two as well. If Liznet had planned something to fluster Sukmeheck this round, the moment was now or never.
"I'll wager more chips."
"Oh-ho? A bet, is it?"
"Yes. Let's make it four more chips."
Four? Liznet only has three left. Which means—!
"Four? You only have... H-hah! You think I'll be shaken just because you're stripping again at this point?"
Regardless of what Sukmeheck was saying, Liznet rose quietly from her seat. Then she took hold of the hem of her skirt, just above her knee.
Honestly, stripping at this point probably is a weak attack. But if it's the skirt instead of the top, the stimulation would be a little more—
But contrary to my expectations, Liznet didn't take off her skirt. She simply parted her legs, just slightly.
"Huh?"
And while I stood there stunned, it happened.
"Nngh... nnghoooh!"
A lewd moan spilled from Liznet's lips, and—
*Plop.* *Rattle-rattle-roll.*
Something dropped to the floor and rolled.
"This is..."
Valerie picked the object up, and everyone got a proper look at it. Dripping wet, it gleamed as it caught the light of the torches. The identity of the thing slipped out of my mouth.
"An anal plug." It was the anal plug that had been inside Liznet until this very moment—the one she had just extracted herself.
"UAAAAAAAAAH!!"
After a moment of dead silence, Sukmeheck shot up from her seat with a scream. With a bang, her back slammed into the bookshelf.
"What?! What the hell IS that?!"
"An anal plug."
"THAT'S NOT WHAT I'M ASKING, AAAACK!!"
Calm as could be, Liznet took her anal plug back from Valerie's hand and set it down on the table.
"What I'm asking is what the hell you even ARE! What is this?! What the—!"
"I am Saintess Candidate Liznet Boyal."
She was a Saintess candidate. I didn't know exactly what a Saintess candidate entailed, but an important figure of the Saintess Order—undoubtedly the one closest to sainthood itself.
She was a Saintess candidate. For the past thirty days she had climaxed every single day, her chest adorned with nipple piercings, her rear filled with an anal plug—
a Saintess candidate.
The sheer, unimaginable shock of it froze not just Valerie but me solid as well.
"Now then, I have placed my bet."
Liznet set four chips down in the center of the table. Right beside them sat the anal plug, still warm.
"Move it! Get that off the table RIGHT NOW!!"
"Now then, Ms. Sukmeheck, it's your turn to bet."
"Clear that away first, THEN talk!!"
Trembling all over, Sukmeheck shrieked until her voice turned to metal scraping on metal.
"How troublesome you are."
Saying that, Liznet relocated the anal plug beside her boot. It was no longer in the center of the table, but it still sat on top of it. Sukmeheck staggered back to her seat on shaking legs.
"What... what kind of degenerate perverts ARE you people...!"
With a quavering voice, Sukmeheck picked her cards back up. I figured the gesture was just panic making her forget she'd already looked at her hand. In other words, her mind was all but broken.
NOW'S MY CHANCE!
I grabbed the blanket draped over Valerie at my left and yanked it right off her.
"H-Hero!"
"Both of you, get started!"
"What?!" "Start what?"
"St-Start...
masturbating!!"
An attack more stimulating than mere stripping. THIS was the play!!
"You little shit, Hero! What the hell are you doing now?!"
Sukmeheck screamed at me without even having checked her hand. Meanwhile, unlike the flustered, hunched-over Valerie, Fresia brazenly began stroking her cock with her hand. She was looking down at me through lidded eyes from the corner of her vision, tongue flicking lazily over her lips.
"Nnh...!"
Startled by that look, I felt Fresia's hand seize my waist as she pressed her hips flush against mine. As if to say watch closely, she stayed pressed against me and turned her body my way. Her copper-toned cock bobbed its head with every movement of her hand.
"H-Hero! I shall do it toooo...!"
With that declaration, Valerie knocked her hips against the other side of me and began masturbating herself, presenting her cock to me. Her perfectly straight shaft drooled long strands of precum. Every time the slightly swollen underside of her glans got squeezed in her grip, a fresh bead welled up from the tip and dripped off.
I found myself staring blankly at the two cocks.
"S-Stop it! We're in the middle of a game!"
"Yeah! And I'm just the dealer, standing here minding my own business! Cards in hand! Just two women swinging their cocks around right beside me, that's AAAALL!"
Shoving my embarrassment down deep, I focused on nothing but needling Sukmeheck.
"Contract Skull!"
{As the Hero has stated, the two are spectators. Neither has touched the players' cards or bodies. The dealer likewise holds her cards and remains at her post. No foul.}
"What the— what the hell...! EEEEK!!"
Gritting her teeth, Sukmeheck stared down at her own hand. She seemed determined to push the game forward somehow. That was when Fresia's hand landed on my shoulder.
"Hero~"
"Huh?"
"I want you to do it~"
"Huh?"
"I wanna put it in your mouth~"
"F-Fresia?!" "Fresia!"
I did NOT see this coming!
"H-Hero..."
Valerie's voice reached my utterly flustered ears.
"I... I want it too."
"B-Valerie?"
The two of them pressed their hips against my body. Squeezing me from both sides, they kept swinging their cocks mere inches from me.
A-As long as I don't drop the cards... I'm just acting as dealer here, right? So using my mouth would... still be fine?
And my lower belly is already burning up...
Just once... just this one time...
**THUD!**
Just as I was smacking my lips, a loud noise hit my ears. All three of us jolted and whipped our eyes toward the table.
There sat Sukmeheck, face planted into the table, head turned toward us. She was out cold, the whites of her eyes showing.
This is...
"Hey! Skull! What's the ruling on THIS?!"
My mind snapping into crystal clarity, I hurriedly asked the Contract Skull.
{The player has fainted. Unduly delaying play constitutes interference with the game. She is incapable of continuing. Therefore, she has interfered with the game.}
Which means—!
{Victory to the degenerate Hero and his ragtag troupe!}
"AZZZAAAT!!"
And so, through nipple piercings, exposure, an anal plug, and public masturbation, we seized our victory.
Call it filthy if you want! We WON, didn't we?!
