Wait, could it really be like what Winette and the others said, that we've been reincarnated by a god and transported to another world? Do we have to find a way to go to that other world?
Everyone looked at Okrugs with suspicion and asked, "What's the bad news?"
"He's still waiting for the verdict! So I don't know where he'll go."
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Okrugs in surprise. What a coincidence!
"Can we go in and take a look, just for a look?" Rikka Takanashi said excitedly.
“This…” Okruz pondered for a moment, without giving them a direct answer.
Suddenly, the petals on Okruz's head contracted and then unfolded again. "I can agree to your request, but after this is over, I will leave you with a seal. Of course, this seal will only prevent you from telling anyone about this matter; it will have no other purpose."
If you agree, please come in.
"A seal?" Hanazono Yuri and Tsuchimikado Fuyu frowned slightly. After all, Okruz's sudden change of attitude was very strange. Who knew if he might leave something inside the seal!
Rikka Takanashi didn't care about all that and immediately wanted to agree, but Toka Takanashi stopped her. Seeing the reactions of Tsuchimikado Fuyu and the others, she thought it would be better to wait and see.
Tsuchimikado and the others are not ordinary people; their opinions are the most important in times like these.
Tsuchimikado and the others were also unsure, so they looked at Gael, who nodded and said, "Okay."
With Gael's confirmation, everyone agreed. Although they weren't familiar with Gael, she was Gabriel's older sister after all. Even if they didn't care about their lives, they should at least care about Gabriel!
If there's a problem with the seal, Gabriel will also suffer.
As for the issue of Gael breaking the seal on Gabriel separately later, no one is too worried. Given Gabriel's personality, if she knew, she would definitely ask Gael to help solve it as well.
Moreover, even if Gael doesn't help, the others all have their own methods, and whether they work or not, we'll have to try them out.
As ordinary people, Rikka and the others had no idea about this, but even if they had, it wouldn't have mattered, so they could only choose to trust Gael.
After all, Gael is different from Gabriel; she is a pure angel, and they are not bad people. Gael wouldn't stand by and watch them die.
Upon entering the Trial Tower, Okruz did not lead them into a room, but instead led them to an elevator entrance.
"It's really advanced," the crowd exclaimed as they looked inside the completely modern tower.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, please." Soon, the elevator arrived, and Kravis stood at the elevator entrance and said with a smile.
"So you really are an elevator employee," Jashin-chan remarked.
"Why do elevators need staff? Can't you just press the buttons yourself?" Winette asked.
"Because this is my job."
"That's the same as saying nothing at all," everyone complained.
"Mr. Okruz, which floor would you like to go to?" Clavis asked with a smile.
“Floor 15, Quindkim,” Okruz said.
"Hi"
Soon, the elevator stopped, and in front of you was a long corridor covered with a red carpet. At the end of the corridor was a bamboo forest enclosed by glass. After walking to the end and turning around, the space in front of you suddenly opened up.
The first thing that catches the eye is a huge multi-tiered chandelier. Okruz walked out of the bamboo forest, and in front of him was a... bar!
"Wait, why is it a bar? Isn't this the place where souls are judged?" Nissougu Senxia complained.
"So, people don't go to the Bridge of Helplessness after they die, they go to a bar!" Tsuchimikado Fuyu said. "Could it be that the drinks here are made with Meng Po's soup?"
"The Bridge of Helplessness? The Soup of Oblivion? What are those?" Satania asked curiously.
"It's nothing," Tsuchimikado Touyu said, shaking her head. She didn't know if the concept of the underworld existed in China, so she simply didn't explain to avoid causing any misunderstanding.
"Welcome to Quindekim. I am bartender Dekim." A white-haired man with a cross in his purple eyes, wearing a bartender's uniform, said from behind the bar counter, "Hello, Mr. Okruz."
When Dekim admitted it, everyone was shocked. It was hard to imagine that the adjudicator was a bartender. Was he trying to tell them that they should have a farewell drink before they died?
Chapter 358 The Judgment Game
“Don’t worry about us, we’re just bystanders,” Okruz said with a smile.
Everyone bowed slightly to Dekim, then followed Okruz upstairs to the viewing platform.
For no other reason than that he would be the judge in charge of Rikka Takanashi's father's case later, and if he left a good impression, the other party might be less harsh on him later.
Although everyone knows this is basically impossible, it's the only thing we can do.
Normally, people would be very curious about what this so-called soul judgment is, but now that the object of the judgment has changed, everyone is only nervous and worried.
Raphiel and the others surrounded Rikka and Touka, fearing that something might happen down there and that Rikka and Takanashi might react excessively.
Although Raphiel and the others didn't know the specific ruling rules, they had heard a little about them, and at least the ruling process certainly wouldn't be so gentle. (Computer version:)
Just as everyone was on high alert, a man wearing a blue shirt finally walked out of the corridor.
"Dad!" Upon seeing the person who arrived, Rikka and Toka Takanashi both covered their mouths and exclaimed in surprise.
They dared not make too much noise, for fear of affecting the subsequent rulings. If they caused problems in the ruling process, it would be a grave offense.
"Is this Rikka's father?" Everyone looked at the middle-aged man below with curiosity, thinking to themselves that it was no wonder Rikka and Toka were so beautiful; you could tell just by looking at their father's appearance—the family genes were too good.
However, at this moment, his face was sickly pale, and his body was rather thin, as if he would fall over if blown by the wind.
“Welcome to Quindekim. I am bartender Dekim,” Dekim said with a bow.
"Hello, excuse me, where is this?" Rikka's father asked curiously when he saw Dekim. "Shouldn't I be at the hospital?"
“I will answer that for you later. Now, please allow me to ask a few questions. Do you remember how you got here?” Dekim asked.
"Hmm... I don't remember." Rikka's father sat in the chair and thought for a while before shaking his head and saying, "I only remember falling asleep in the hospital bed, and then I don't know how I got here."
"Now, I will explain the current situation to you. Please listen carefully."
First, I cannot explain where this is to you. Second, you will be participating in a game. Third, the game's content will be determined by roulette. Fourth, the game is life-or-death. Fifth, you cannot leave this establishment until the game ends.
“Playing games is no problem. Anyway, given my physical condition, I probably won’t live much longer, so I’m not afraid to risk my life. But if it’s about playing games, I can’t do it alone, can I?” said Rikka Takanashi’s father.
"Two more people will be joining us. Please wait a moment."
“No problem,” Rikka Takanashi’s father nodded and said.
"So, you two, don't you want to join?" Okruz asked Rikka and Touka.
"Huh?" Everyone looked at Okruz in surprise. What kind of trouble was he up to now?
"Because of your involvement, it is impossible to guarantee absolute fairness in this ruling. After all, many methods cannot be used to prevent you from disrupting the ruling process, so it would be better to let the two of you join in as well."
"But... won't Dad recognize me? Is that okay?"
Takanashi Touka said, "Rikka was probably too young back then, and I haven't seen her since Dad went to the hospital, so it's normal that you don't recognize her now. But I'm sure I'll be recognized."
“I will inflict cognitive impairment on you, and he will mistake you for other people,” Gael said.
“Of course, there’s another condition: you must not reveal yourselves before the game ends, not even if your father guesses it,” Okruz said.
Takanashi Touka looked at Takanashi Rikka with concern. Rikka nodded and said seriously, "The Evil Eye will complete the mission."
Seeing Rikka's determined look, Touka nodded and said, "Then I accept too."
The two went downstairs, and Dekim nodded to them. Then he took out a red button and said, "Then, the three of you, please start choosing a game."
After he finished speaking, a nine-square grid panel with strange patterns appeared in front of the three people behind Dekim.
Rikka Takanashi's father looked at the button in front of him, then at Rikka and the others, and asked, "Are they going to participate in this game too? They're still children. Aren't you being a little too cruel?"
“Sorry, that’s beyond the scope of my answer,” Dekim said.
"We'll participate, please press the button." Takanashi Touka, suppressing her excitement, took Takanashi Rikka's hand, who was holding back tears, and walked over to say this.
"Are you sure everything's okay?"
“No problem,” Takanashi Touka said firmly.
Although she didn't know why she and Rikka were being arranged to join the game, she absolutely couldn't mess things up because it involved her father's decision.
As for the end of the ruling, there will naturally be a chance to chat with his father. After all, Okruz said that he must not reveal himself before the game ends, so there should be no problem after the game ends.
Even if we leave immediately after the game ends, it will still take a minute or two to walk from here to the elevator. Walking slowly will give us a few more minutes to spare, so that our father can know that we are doing well three years from now and that he doesn't need to worry.
Rikka Takanashi's father nodded and then decisively pressed the button. A small, constantly moving, lit square appeared on the panel, eventually stopping after completing a full circle and reaching the first square of the second row.
The grid was opened, and it read "Goldfish Catching".
"Goldfish scooping? It's been so long since I've done that. Rikka used to love having me scoop goldfish for her when we went to festivals," Rikka's father said nostalgically. "But I'm afraid we won't be able to go this year."
Upon hearing this, Rikka and Toka's eyes immediately welled up with tears, but they remembered Okuru's instructions and raised their heads slightly, trying their best to hold back their tears.
"What's wrong with you two?" Rikka Takanashi's father asked, puzzled by their reactions.
"It's nothing, you just remind us of our father."
"Really? I don't know why you've come to participate in this game, but let's at least have some fun for a while. Oh, by the way, my name is Takanashi, and what's yours?" Takanashi asked.

Chapter 359 Catching Goldfish
The game of catching goldfish originated in the Tang Dynasty of China and flourished in Japan. It has always been loved by the Japanese people and has become a traditional game in Japanese summer festivals and temple fairs.
Generally, customers need to pay 100 yen to get a paper net and a bowl. They use the paper net to scoop goldfish out of the pond and put them in the bowl. The goldfish can be taken home, although most people don't want to keep them and choose to release them into the nearby water.
The fun part of this game is that the paper net is very easy to break. Players get a great sense of accomplishment when they use the paper net to scoop up goldfish, and the beautiful goldfish are very popular with girls and children.
"The rules are simple. Here they are. Each person can take ten goldfish. The three of you take turns catching goldfish in the pool, and the person who catches the most goldfish at the end wins."
Two points need to be clarified here. First, there are only ten goldfish in total. This means that if you don't catch any goldfish in the early stages, you may lose the game because you don't have enough goldfish.
Second, you can choose to forfeit in your round. Forfeiting reduces the number of paper nets by one, and your next player will pause for one turn. Each time someone forfeits, the pool temperature increases by ten degrees.
"This explanation doesn't sound very useful," Takanashi said.
Takanashi Rikka and Takanashi Touka nodded in agreement. They didn't care about winning or losing; they just wanted to play games with their dad. In any case, whether they won or lost, it wouldn't affect the Takanashi family.
Although it's said to be a game where lives are at stake, they know the truth and don't believe it; they know it's all just a scare tactic.
As for whether Takanashi's family goes to Hell or Heaven, after being taught by Raphiel and the others these past few days, Rikka Takanashi knows that there is not much difference between the two places. At most, the environment in Hell is a little worse than that in Heaven.
Moreover, Hell's modern technology is more advanced than that of Heaven. In Heaven, homes don't even have televisions, but at least Hell has one, allowing people to browse the Demon Realm's shopping channels. You know, Satania loves shopping in the Demon Realm.
"Alright, let the game begin." Dekim stepped aside, leaving the pool to Takanashi Rikka and the other two.
"D-Dad...why don't you go first?" Takanashi Touka almost blurted out "Dad," but quickly corrected herself.
