Chapter 159: Using Golden Experience to Punch Two Girls Present

Kirari's gaze grew deeper, her expression showing genuine interest—she hadn't seen through Shunsuke's trick just now.

This meant that, in terms of gambling skills, Shunsuke was even better than her.

Kirari's evaluation of Shunsuke rose several notches—it had already reached the pinnacle.

Yumeko, who had been silent since the game began, kept her eyes on the roulette and the sword. After a while, she shook her head. "How incredible! Even though this is clearly targeting me, I couldn't spot any trace of your method, Shunsuke."

"Yumeko, you shouldn't say such things lightly," Shunsuke replied, naturally refusing to admit to anything at this moment.

Yumeko simply smiled nonchalantly. "If this continues, as soon as I bet more than two chips at once, my balance will instantly turn negative. It's so... tempting that I can hardly resist!"

"Hmm, now that I think about it, we've been talking about betting our lives, but we never assessed how much our lives are worth in monetary terms. Doesn't that mean even if we score a huge win and drive the opponent's balance into the negatives, it's meaningless?"

"Well, if you've already won the other person's life, Shunsuke, you don't need to overthink it. No matter how much debt they have, the person is still yours. What's the difference?"

"...You have a point." Shunsuke thought it over. The whole person belonged to him; did that extra money really matter?

"Then how about this round? Let's bet ten chips," he said, laying out ten large coins.

"Ten chips, huh..." Yumeko fell into thought, trying to understand why he chose that number. Could it be that this particular figure made cheating easier?

After pondering for a while and finding no clear answer, Yumeko decided to agree. While losing this round would likely turn her into someone else's slave, it was precisely this high-stakes risk that drove her love for gambling!

If victory were guaranteed before a gamble even began, that would be the most boring thing of all. Yumeko believed that Shunsuke must feel the same way. Therefore, his technique must have a flaw!

When Yumeko placed nine chips of her own, the dealer used the same method as before, throwing the small sword into the pot.

But this time, Shunsuke didn't look at the original outcome. Instead, using Star Platinum, he grasped ten small swords and inserted them, one by one, from one to ten, all showing the "life" side.

Then time resumed its flow.

The dealer began counting down.

"Ten!"

Shunsuke placed a chip on the number 10. Yumeko remained unfazed.

"Nine!"

Shunsuke placed another chip on the number 9.

"Eight!"

He placed a third chip on the number 8.

By now, the faces of the onlookers had started to change.

"Hey, hey, Shunsuke, are you kidding us?" Runa leaned forward, staring intently at the pot, her lollipop momentarily forgotten.

Shunsuke gave no reply and continued placing his chips one by one in sequence as the dealer counted down.

Yumeko's body grew tense. Her left hand reached into her skirt, her breathing becoming heavier. Just as the countdown neared its end, she bet all her chips on the number 10. At that same moment, Shunsuke placed his final chip on the number 1.

Noticing Yumeko's move, Shunsuke raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you sure this is a good way to bet? Maybe you should split it into multiple wagers?"

Yumeko's right index finger found its way to her mouth while her left hand continued to grip tightly.

Her body grew increasingly taut as she looked at Shunsuke with hazy eyes, responding in a teasing voice, "No, that's unnecessary. Shunsuke, let's just reveal it already. I can't hold back anymore."

"Whew, Yumeko, you're really something," Runa said with a laugh. "No wonder the president finds you so fascinating."

Yumeko gave Kirari a quick glance and displayed the same eager expression. "If it's the president, I'd love to gamble against her. But if I win this round, I won't have enough chips to wager again."

Kirari, however, ignored Yumeko and instead addressed the dealer. "Hurry up and reveal it."

"Oh? Even the president can't call the outcome?" Runa probed as she licked her lollipop.

Kirari didn't deny it. She continued to sit with perfect poise, her back straight and dignified.

The subtle curve of her stockings hinted at the tension in her otherwise composed demeanor, as her elegantly arched foot flexed ever so slightly, betraying a glimpse of her true emotions.

Meanwhile, Shunsuke paid no mind to the underlying tension among the beautiful women around him. Instead, just as the dealer prepared to reveal the result, he froze time once again.

As Shunsuke entered the world of stopped time, he glanced at the flush on Yumeko's cheeks and then down at the feet of Kirari, wrapped snugly in high-end stockings.

He couldn't help but recall that first anime he watched after becoming a homebody, the one about a protagonist who used time-stopping powers in a school setting to exact revenge, eventually driving the entire institution into bankruptcy through relentless effort.

Shunsuke flipped the small sword embedded in the number "ten," reversing it so that the "death" side was now inserted instead. With that, he allowed time to resume its flow.

Then, immediately, he switched to [Golden Experience] mode.

"Muda muda muda muda muda—!"

Shunsuke concentrated life energy into [Golden Experience]'s fists. Carefully controlling his strength, he struck Yumeko, Runa, Kirari, and Ririka once each just below the abdomen, transferring a small amount of life energy into them.

Suddenly, Yumeko, Runa, Kirari, and Ririka all felt a peculiar jolt in their lower abdomen—a rush of warmth surging through them, as though their spirits were momentarily lifted out of their bodies.

They heard the dealer's shocked voice shouting: "One life, two lives, three lives, four lives, five lives, six lives, seven lives, eight lives, nine lives, ten deaths!"

"Ah—! Ahhhhhhh—!"

Yumeko could no longer contain herself, her body tensed to the limit as she ascended into bliss before collapsing weakly onto the ground.

"What—what is this feeling!?"

Runa clutched at her rabbit hoodie's skirt hem, pressing her thighs together tightly as if recalling that familiar sensation from before.

"Hngh!"

Ririka let out a low gasp, her delicate toes curling tightly like ten tiny pearls. Her body trembled from the unexpected sensation.

Even Kirari found herself taking a sharp breath. She instinctively placed her right hand on her abdomen, but the sudden hypersensitivity in that area made her withdraw it almost immediately. Supporting herself on both hands, she steadied her body against the ground.

Feeling a cool sensation on her thighs, Kirari slowly reached beneath her skirt. When she noticed the faint trace of moisture on her fingers, she smiled.

"Who would have thought I'd experience such a thrill just by watching others gamble? As I expected, Shunsuke really is something special."
