129 Red Hands (2)
BAM!
“Argmffh…” Dennis let out a suppressed groan when Lith smashed his hand on top of his own.
Lith and Ralph both looked at the pained expression of Dennis and smiled. They were really enjoying his suffering.
“Here I go.” Ralph said and took out his hand from the bottom of the stack.
BAM!
Ralph smashed his hand on Lith’s. Ralph and Dennis both quickly looked at Lith’s face hoping to see him suffer but, like every other time, they didn’t see even a slight change in his expression.
Lith had a high tolerance for pain, all thanks to his sister’s training, which was now showing its effect. Lith turned to them and said smiling, ” Want to see me suffer? In your dreams, hehehe.”
Ralph and Dennis clicked their tongues and turned their gaze back to their stack of hands. Dennis looked at Ralph and said smiling, ” My turn now. Get ready, Ralph.”
Ralph maintained a poker face and didn’t say anything. Dennis took out his hand and smashed it on top of Ralph’s.
BAM!
Ralph gasped lightly but still managed to keep his poker face. It was now Lith and Dennis who clicked their tongues after failing to see Ralph suffer.
The three were using magic powers when hitting each other. The impact was strong enough for Ralph and Dennis to always display pained expressions when he hit them.
The order in which their hands were stacked was, at the bottom was Dennis’s left hand, above which was Lith’s left hand with Ralph’s left hand being on top of it.
Above Ralph’s left hand was Lith’s right hand and above it was Dennis’s right hand, followed by Ralph’s right hand. This ensured that one was able to get hit by the other two rather than just one player hitting the other.
Ralph and Dennis were both starting to lose. Lith’s hits were too strong and they weren’t able to handle many of them. After a few more rounds…
“Argh, I am out!” Dennis took out both his hands. He fell back on the ground and started shaking his hands, trying to ease the pain.
“Me too.” Ralph took out his hand too and rubbed them together. It was clearly visible that he, too, was in pain but was trying his best not to show it.
Lith, although he received powerful hits from the other two, his pain tolerance was high enough to not be pained just by the hits he received from the two. Lith looked at the two and said smugly,
“I win. Now, let me guess what you two need to do. Hmm… let’s see… oh! Alright, it’s pretty simple. Go to teacher’s floor and clean it up.”
Ralph and Dennis looked at each other in confusion and then at Lith. Lith could understand what they were trying to convey with just this small gesture. He said to them
“Don’t look at me like that. This isn’t that simple. Visit the floor and you’ll understand.”
The two nodded and got up from the ground. They waited for a few minutes to have their hands healed and then went to the top floor. Dennis was a vampire from an Emperor rank bloodline and had innate superior regeneration abilities.
Ralph was from the Lust family of demons, an Emperor rank bloodline too, and the Lust family demons had innate healing abilities as well. Thus, the two didn’t need to take any pills or apply any ointments to heal their hands and they naturally healed within a few minutes.
As for Lith, his regeneration ability was so fast that just as someone hit his hand and got done with it, his hand would heal within a few seconds. This was the healing ability originating from a Legendary rank bloodline.
The three walked onto Arya’s floor and the scene they saw shocked Dennis and Ralph just like how it did to Lith before. However, this time there wasn’t Arya present. Lith looked at the two and said smiling,
“Alright, get to work. And also, don’t ask me how this happened, even I have no idea.”
Ralph and Dennis nodded. Dennis then looked at Lith and asked, “where is teacher?”
“She must’ve gone out I guess.” Lith lied. It would be troublesome to tell them that she was half naked and sleeping in his own bedroom and thus lied.
“Must be the case.” Dennis said, nodding his head.
The two got to cleaning the floor while Lith watched and supervised, ensuring everything was cleaned up well. After fifteen minutes, Dennis said while constantly rubbing a wet cloth on a red stain on the ground,
“Damn it. There’s so much to do. I think solving puzzles would be much easier than this.”
“Yes. I’d rather go on a date than do this,” Ralph added.
Dennis didn’t like puzzles and Ralph didn’t like dates, but in comparison to those, cleaning seemed more hateful to them.
The liquor stains were the hardest for them to remove and Ralph just wanted to cast fire spells to erase them. Dennis wanted to cast water spells to clean this up but the floor would become wet and using wind spells to dry it would just make more of a mess.
This was the excuse Lith gave to them when, in reality, their control was top notch, but he just wanted to see them suffer and thus used this as an excuse.
Ralph, of course, saw through Lith’s lies but he couldn’t do anything about it being the loser, as the whole point of the red hands was that the loser had to do anything the winner said.
Lith chuckled watching their reactions but didn’t say anything. After fifteen more minutes, the living room was all clean.
“Phew… finally, all done.” Dennis wiped the imaginary sweat from his forehead and said in relief.
Ralph nodded his head. This suffering session was finally over and he could go back to his business now.
“No. Not yet. This is just the living room. I asked you two to clean the whole floor.” Lith said, smiling wickedly.
The two glared at Lith, this hateful guy. They wished that they could just beat him up, but they couldn’t. Dennis would instantly be suppressed due to the superior vampire bloodline of Lith and he was much stronger than Ralph, so Ralph knew that it was almost impossible to beat up Lith.
They both gave up and sighed. The two then went to the other rooms and, after two hours, the whole floor was cleaned up. The two laid on the ground and closed their eyes to rest. They were mentally very exhausted from doing such menial jobs.
