A Scary Game
Consequently, four muscular men carried a table into the room. On top of the table covered a sheet of
cloth, and none could see what was beneath it.
Matthew was dumbfounded. Does this guy bring such a gigantic table with him whenever he goes out?
The crown prince walked to the table and laughingly stated, “This is my favorite game of all time, but not
many get to play it with me, so don’t you let me down, Matthew!”
Having said that, he removed the piece of cloth on the table and revealed what was underneath it. It
turned out to be a box fully made of transparent glass. Within the box was a layer of fine sand and what
appeared to be plants. At first sight, it seemed like a delicately crafted ornamental box. However, within
the plants in the box were numerous unusual, venomous snakes. Among them was a gliding
rattlesnake, a bamboo viper hiding in the bushes, a cobra revealing itself, and some other snakes that
were unidentifiable. With assiduous observation, one could perceive that there were more than a dozen
of such belligerent, venomous snakes in the box, and each of them was terrifyingly lethal.
Having seen that, the women that were in the room yelled and shrieked as they slowly stepped backward
with their faces blanched. These slender creatures were slippery and somewhat petrifying.
The crown prince, on the other hand, was rather excited looking at those venomous snakes as if he was
looking at his favorite toys. “These are my pets that I personally raised. Cute, aren’t they?” As he
chuckled, he grabbed one of the women and dragged her to the table.
“W-What are you doing, Prince?” the woman stuttered.
“Be good. It’s okay.” The crown prince faintly beamed and suddenly inserted the woman’s hand into the
box.
“Aah!” The woman shrieked as she struggled for her life. With that, she seemed to have triggered the
snakes, and immediately, a few snakes bared their fangs and bit the woman’s pale hand. The woman
screamed out of her lungs, shaking with every ounce of her energy.
Followingly, the crown prince shoved her onto the ground, smilingly saying, “These are all my venomous
little cuties. Once bitten, it should take less than ten minutes until someone dies.”
The woman slumped on the ground, and her pale hand was already greening. Furthermore, the
greenness was speedily spreading toward her arm. “Save me, save me please…” the woman pleaded,
her voice shaking.
Nevertheless, the crown prince ignored her and remained smiling, explaining, “It’s not such a bad way to
die. It’s basically painless.”
“Don’t be alarmed by her looks. She’s just scared, and not in pain at all!” As he was speaking, he bent
over and caressed the woman’s cheek. “How is it? Not that bad, huh?”
The woman stammered, “S-Save me, please, Prince… I’ll do anything you want. Please… Save me…”
The crown prince furiously interrupted, “I’m asking how do you feel? What the f*ck are you on about?
Say it, are you in pain?”
Terrorized, the woman mumbled, “N-No, I’m not…”
“Attagirl!” He laughed as he stood up. “How’s that? I’m really not lying! It’s painless!”
Matthew disturbingly glanced at him, uttering, “We’re playing Poker, crown prince. What’s the deal with
killing the poor woman? Why don’t you give her an antidote first?”
The crown prince speedily nodded. “You’re right. We should feel happy when we play cards. It’s indeed
distracting playing with a dead body next to us. Once she’s dead, throw her out! What a pain in the eye!”
“You…” Matthew was infuriated. Is this crown prince really that much of a psycho that he just doesn’t
value human lives?
Suddenly, the girl vomited a mouthful of white foam as her body convulsed into a ball.
The crown prince immediately shouted, “Anytime now! Anytime now… Now, now, now… Look at the
time! It’s not even five minutes! You’re so weak, lady! I remember the strongest one from back then, who
held off for ten minutes!”
