Chapter 24:

Effortlessly beating a pig at Go fish

Streamer Royale


Iori scowled as she searched around for the next key. "I don't mind a little bondage for views, but this shit's uncomfortable as fuck!"

It was then that she noticed a key was being offered as a prize, but the game it was at was...

"Go fish!?"

"Yes, Go fish is my forte you see," Mr. Pigwig chuckled as he waddled over.

Iori stared down Mr. Pigwig and scowled. "Pigs and Go fish, reminds me of something Carol-chan once told me..."

...

"Hey Iori-chan, you wanna play a really hard children's game?" Carol asked.

"Harder than the shit we're playing?"

"It's Go fish with a fat pig."

Iori burst into laughter. "Really? Go fish is easy shit."

"This pig is bullshit though. Here, check out this link to the game I played. I'm not lying when I say he's bullshit!"

...

Iori sat down at the table as the dealer dealt the cards to her and Mr. Pigwig.

"Got four's?" Iori asked.

"Go fish."

Meanwhile, Emeri found herself sulking on a nearby bench as she tried to figure out her gameplan. Losing the poker had been a big blow as the card she needed to partake in the game to free her friends was now gone.

"Trading's off the table, stealing too. The card is only active for the one that won it. But you still got money, so despair," Melinda sneered as she wrapped her hand around Emeri's shoulder.

"Get lost."

"I'm your personal escort 24/7 here. No shaking me off."

Emeri got up and stormed over to a roulette table. There, she noticed a prize was a key, but it didn't appear to be one needed to free her captured friends.

"Oh, that key leads to the back rooms. Guess that option is still open, but it's much harder. See you'll need all the keys your other friends, who you're forbidden from interacting with, are trying to collect in order to free them that way," Melinda grumbled.

"Then I'm all in on it," Emeri glared.

...

"No! I'm the best Go fish player in the world, I even rigged things, so why!?" Mr. Pigwig cried as he slumped to the floor in dismay.

"Seriously, Carol-chan was just overexaggerating when she said pigs were impossible-level final bosses at Go fish. I first-tried this shit," Iori smirked as she used the key to free herself from the rubber bandages.

Once that was done, she redid her hair and tossed the key over to the others. While it did completely free Sherbert, Nika and Kumi were also free, however, a power-sealing bracelet still remained on each of their wrists.

"What's the big deal!? I still can't do shit!" Kumi fumed.

"But at least we're free from the suffocation of those bandages," Nika scowled.

"We just gotta find one more key for you two and then you can go ham," Leona smiled.

"Damn right I'm gonna go ham!" Kumi fumed.

However, a new element was about to enter the game.

"Sold! We got a winner, everyone!" Melinda cheered.

Everyone turned towards the center. There a mysterious woman without a single hair on her head smiled as the guards released Mimoko from the wheel and bound her before presenting her to the woman.

"Oh, so perfect. New apostle, I am Smoothilina, the goddess of bald. Now let's go someplace cozy so I can bestow a blessing upon you."

Emeri looked up from the table and scowled at the new development. "Shit, someone else won her... Wait, that means she's free now!"

Emeri rose to get up, but remained at the table until the spin was complete. It proved to be worth her while as she ended up winning a key.

"Looks like Kumi-chan just needs this last key in order to go wild. Now I just need to think of a way to get this to her."
