Kaiser of the New World (Ch 200+)

Punishment (254)

Now that Kai thought about it, he actually didn't know all that much about the people he was traveling with.

Sure he knew that Petunia was John's daughter, and that she was named after her mother's favourite flower, but that's about it.

And Cecilia, Kai knew that she had been trapped for ten thousands years, stuck in a hex Anastasia had put her under. He also knew that she was a fan of fashion and was a pretty good cook, but that was really it.

And Remy... they were a rat, that's all Kai knew.

So now that they would have to answer ten questions about each other without getting any wrong... Kai didn't exactly feel confident.

"Alright then, there will be some extra rules for these three questions, otherwise they would be too easy. First of all, the person who the question is about is not allowed to speak, if they do, they will be punished. The other rule is that these questions specifically have a time limit of five minutes each, just so you can't figure out any loopholes.

So, is everyone ready? Yeah? Okay then!"

The light above Petunia intensified, suddenly becoming much brighter than it had been. Kai glanced over at the young girl, realising that the first question must be about her.

"Question eighty-one, what is the origin of the child's name?"

Kai relaxed and let out a small sigh of relief. At least he actually knew the answer to this one, which was a good thing considering that he probably wouldn't know the answer to the other nine questions that were going to be asked.

"It was her mothers favourite flower, that's where the name comes from."

The light descending on Petunia suddenly lit up in a light shade of pink, signifying that Kai was correct.

"A colour change of the light, huh? Trying to spice things up?"

Frosty smirked and shrugged calmly.

"Eh, you know how it is, can't have a gameshow being too repetitive, otherwise it gets real boring real quick."

Kai sighed and shook his head.

"Don't I know it..."

Frosty frowned and leaned forward.

"Hey- What's that supposed to... Ah, nevermind, I'm not wasting a question on that. On to question eighty-two!"

The light surrounding Petunia disappeared and instead appeared over Kai, lighting him up and almost making him look like an angel with how bright and radiant he currently was.

"What is Mr Boring Name's favourite food?"

While the other three were figuring out how to answer that question, Kai couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

Frosty had said that the person who the question was about wouldn't be allowed to talk, but he had assumed that the spirit just meant Kai wouldn't be allowed to speak.

But no, Kai physically could not open his mouth. It was like it was being held close by magic or something strange like that.

The feeling was uncomfortable, to say the least.

"The answer is Lasagne."

Cecilia ended up answering the question. To be honest, that was probably the easiest question asked since the mid thirties. They had been dining together as a group since they left the city from a box that could create any food they wanted, so of course they would mostly be consuming their favourite food.

And for Kai, that food was lasagne.

"Correct, maybe you do know a little about each other, maybe...

Ah, I'm kidding, I'll ask a proper question now."
