Cherreads

Chapter 311 - Trust II

What started like a seamless, naughty game of truth or dare (or similar) somehow turned into an active warzone as new contestants joined the night.

First, Yasaka and Elysir went at it with each other. I don't know if they're cheating or what... but the bottle keeps falling on them, and they're actively ignoring my, Tsunade's, and Haku's questions, going just about each other.

"Deep inside, you're jealous of me, aren't you? You don't like that I am the number one~? You don't like that he says I am the number one each time he is asked?" (Elysir)

"You're afraid Ray considers me a mother more than you~?" (Yasaka)

"Do you consider me a threat since I am stronger?" (Elysir)

"Stronger? That may be past tense. We'd have to see about that now, darling. Be honest and say you don't like that he's enamored with my milky boobs~" (Yasaka)

"Are you sure you're not a ten-tailed ox instead of a fox?" (Elysir)

I realized that they were actively tampering with the bottle when I tried to use space to tamper with it myself, only to end up colliding with their concealed energies.

My and Tsunade's ominous energy scattered slowly as we watched a whole season of a new drama called: *The Sun Concubines*. I don't know if this game is good or not, by the way... I didn't realize Yasaka and Elysir had this rivalry going on.

"Shouldn't we stop them?" Tsunade whispered next to me. At this point, we were just bystanders, and I don't know where from, but Haku was already having popcorn and enjoying herself, not quite wanting to fight since the little slut doesn't like to waste energy and fight for positions in my heart...

She'd rather fight for my semen.

"I don't think they can be stopped... so long as there's no violence..." I whispered back in resignation; the responses started to get more and more venomous. I hoped I could solve whatever tension there was at the end of this with a good massage.

"No violence...? Can't you see they're about to pounce on each other?!" Tsunade whispered back, a bit frantic... I could guess the last thing she wants as a Hokage is a fight to break out between Elysir and Yasaka in Konoha.

By the way, just so you know... Elysir is as strong as I am, so if those two fight, I can't stop them with normal means. I could try to stop them with my dick...? But that may be effective with Yasaka but not with Elysir.

In all her frankness, she clung to me and made me remember our little moment before that still had me quite disappointed.

"Don't talk to me like we weren't about to pounce on each other as well," I whispered back; however, my tone was higher.

She gasped and sent me a sharp glare. "Let's take this to another room if you have the balls."

It was my turn to gasp at her blatant challenge.

"If you want to fix it this way, don't expect me to treat you kindly again."

"What makes you think I will just let you?"

Before we realized it, I was already fondling her breasts, and she had her hands inside my hakama, gripping my dick from the base with fury.

"I will fuck you until you forget Dan," I threatened her with a low, ominous voice, all due seriousness, pinching and pulling her nipple with aura and force, not intending to lie to myself anymore.

I like it when my belongings fully belong to me.

Her response was expected: She moaned audibly in shock, her arousal muffled by the argument Yasaka and Elysir were having. She covered her mouth subtly and took my wrist with force, trying to pull me away from the room and into our little private zone once again.

I don't know if she feels challenged or if she's actually eager for what's to come, but as I said, I am not going to be kind... I am not going to make love to her as my wife; I am going to treat her like my fuck toy.

When we were about to make our way out, a portal manifested behind us.

!!!

"Husband, where are you going?" I heard an exquisite voice that mortals weren't allowed to hear. Yet that voice brought in me a mixture of happiness and fear.

"Amaterasu..."

She walked out of the portal carrying a bottle, too eager and too happy to participate in this 'game'—or better said, 'war.'

"Thanks for your invitation, Hasshaku-sama. I see you're all having fun." The Sun Goddess took a seat, earning a glare from both Yasaka and Elysir. Haku sent me a hideous, amused glint, and I realised this tall slut had planned this.

"Where are you going, master? This fun night has just started~."

...

From that moment on, everything just went to hell.

Elysir, Yasaka, and Amaterasu had a rivalry so strong that even Haku saw her plans going south. Tsunade went to wake up Azrael and ask for help... she thought if a fight did break out, we'd be able to control it better if Azrael was here, which I didn't deny.

They began by asking questions about their love and affection for me, the way they viewed each other, and the way they behaved with each other.

Amaterasu went as far as to reveal that, at some point, she was secretly plotting how to murder Elysir and take her place as my main wife. Something that left me not a small amount of shock—I was flabbergasted.

She also revealed to Yasaka that she personally exiled Yasaka's ancestor: The Goddess Inari, because after falling in love with a mortal, she became unruly and turned against Takamagahara, something she feared Yasaka would do too—and hence she was also plotting to get rid of Yasaka's husband before Khaos Brigade even did.

She revealed that at Yasaka's husband's death, she had been relieved rather than sad because she didn't have to do it herself.

Those were very strong and poisonous revelations for a 'game.'

I saw tensions get bigger; I told the girls we should stop it... But they wanted to continue. They still had 'questions.'

And so, taking advantage of their inability to lie... they exposed each other bare.

"Nyahaha, let me join!~" Kuroka appeared next, and I sent a killing glare to Haku, telling her to stop getting more of the girls involved in this mess!

The questioning continued, now with a Kuroka in the game, sending a killer question to Amaterasu, asking her if she was aware of what happened to the portion of her Yokai tribe that was captured and taken to the underworld by the Naberius Clan, one of the pillars of hell.

There was so much shit piled up in my Sun Goddess wife that I was hoping she'd decline. But no... Amaterasu turned out to be a big, scheming mama. She even smiled my way when she answered; it was as if she was confident that I was going to keep loving her no matter how much shit fell on her.

She answered that she was 'aware' and could stop it but she 'didn't stop it, because the deal had already been made.'

I put my hands on Kuroka, trying to calm her down, but even as she and Amaterasu stared at each other impassively, I knew she wanted to pounce.

"Everything is in the past. I have committed actions that I regret and some that I don't regret, Kuroka. But what can I say...? I certainly didn't expect that in the future I would be sharing my man with a Nekoshou... with Yasaka... with Hasshaku-sama, of all Yokai. We are all from different factions, different perspectives of history, and we all have converged here... everything I did in the past was for the sake of Takamagahara and for the sake of Japan. It is my duty as the matriarch of Shintō... will you find me at fault?"

When Amaterasu said that, she wasn't looking at them... she was looking at me.

*"That's why I told you all to stop this game,"* I sighed. Everyone was already quite drunk but not out of the game—more like... the alcohol was making them sharper.

The situation got a little bit out of control when Azrael also walked into the room and got interested in all the ramblings and aura being released.

She may not have that 'rivalry' with the other girls. But the way the conversations were going, I imagined her joining couldn't be anything good.

"May I join?" She sat down next to me with Tsunade, who had handed her a cute pink kimono.

When she sat down... that's when the real poison began. I haven't seen so much passive violence in one room since I was in London for holidays in my previous life.

"Back during the third century. That infamous case where two eight-tailed kitsune went missing. It was the fallen angels, wasn't it?" Amaterasu was the one who asked that question, much to Yasaka's disbelief.

"…" Azrael's brows squinted; there couldn't be any goodwill behind that question.

"You can't lie, Azrael-san. You are a high-ranked angel from the heavens; this is information you should know. It is a yes or no answer." The Sun goddess smirked, taking a sip... it was like she was throwing the shit that fell on her onto someone else.

Azrael served herself a cup (to my surprise) of the lighter and weaker cherry blossom divine sake from Takamagahara instead of the sweet ambrosia rum from Olympus.

"It is the truth. They were taken as part of our previous lord's experiments for sacred gears. They now belong to a Longinus called: Twin Fox Grace, its whereabouts unknown, unfortunately... this information is naturally classified and only high-ranked priests and brave knights and above are aware of it."

Azrael's answer left the room in silence as both Yasaka and Amaterasu shared looks.

"Girls…" I wanted to interject, but the bottle was already spinning, and it fell on Amaterasu. There were so many forces tampering with it that I could swear I saw a small spatial rift form in the corner of the manor.

"There was a period after the war when the church began expanding its influence to the east. Rogue Yokai from the Eastern Yokai Faction would actively target our angels, priests, and exorcists while leaving devils to make a settlement. We were not stupid, Amaterasu. Even if the factions worked independently, Nurarihyon used to work for you during that period, trying to stabilise his influence in Japan. Did you give that order?"

"Of course I did~ I ordered Nurarihyon to massacre as many angels as possible while allowing him to make deals with the devils. Most particularly the Belial Clan."

Azrael's aura flared up with killing intent that she repressed the next second, taking another sip of her sake.

'Oh my god...' I almost put my hands on my head. How much worse could this get?

"Why are you looking at me like that, dear? That's all in the past. Besides, devils had no desire to influence Japan beyond the economic spectrum, while your church sought to spread its faith in my land, threatening to weaken the leylines. Was I supposed just to allow that?"

"Thousands of angels died, our numbers were already so low."

"This game finishes now," I said, not wanting the poison to spread even further than it already had, but Elysir reached my wrist when I took the bottle and shook her head at me.

"No, Ray. I believe this is right––" Elysir mumbled.

"How is this right?! Are you trying for all of them to become irreconcilable?"

"We are a family. We are all going to be the mothers of your children. I believe if we want this to work, there should be clarity… past grievances must be cleared and forgotten, and there should be no secrets."

The room got silent with multiple exchanging glances. I realised that what she said was right; I just didn't know if this was the right way.

"..." I closed my mouth and left the bottle there. Elysir took my hand within hers.

"Even us... We shouldn't hold secrets from them or from ourselves," she said, biting her lips.

"Ely... what do you mean?"

"We have something to reveal to them, don't we? And I-I have something to reveal to you too."
