The Greatest Beast Tamer of Earth

"Why have you been so generous to me? Many people have approached me with various intentions, but I can't guess yours. What do you desire?" asked Kajal.

"It would be better to lie, but since I have already answered your previous questions truthfully, I believe I should continue. I approached you initially out of curiosity and destiny, but after meeting you several times, I now have a more compelling reason." This answer confused Kajal.

"Isn't it self-evident why I'm so nice to you? I won't say much except that I never intended to harm you or your clan," he said.

Kajal was rendered speechless; this response relieved and perplexed her; a soft spot had formed in her heart for him.

"Kajal, do you know what I despise and admire about you simultaneously?" Rishi asked.

"No, what is it?" Kajal asked with a curious expression.

"You don't trust others easily." he said, looking at her seriously for a second before continuing, "which is fine, but these little mischievous tricks you use over and over can hurt other people's feelings at times," he responded with a sober expression.

"If you knew about the potion, then why did you drink it?" a perplexed and surprised Kajal asked without disagreeing.

"Because I never lied to you," Rishi replied. "Can you say the same thing?"

"I'm sorry if this upset you, but it's necessary; I've been betrayed many times. It's difficult for me to trust others, especially people who don't have a clear identity like you," She responded.

"Why don't you drink the potion if you're truly sincere, or is it another lie, or are you just a girl with trust issues?" Rishi smirked as he took another sip of his drink.

"I'm not lying this time," Kajal stated emphatically.

"Prove it," Rishi stated confidently.

"You can't trick me; I'm not falling for this trap," Kajal said.

"Are you scared? To be not able to control your feelings," mocked Rishi.

"What emotions do you have? Don't talk nonsense," She responded.

"Just kidding, but if you can't do it, let's play Truth or Dare. Or are you too afraid for that too?" Rishi said.

"Who is afraid?" Kajal said confidently as she looked at Rishi; the others were content to give Rishi and Kajal their undivided space.

Rishi smiled and asked the waiter to bring him an empty bottle, which he did after some time. Rishi spun it horizontally on the table, and the bottle began to spin. When the bottle spun, the reflections of the colorful lights in the surrounding area covered the entire surface of the bottle.

The sky could be seen on it as it slowed down before it came to a halt with its top facing Rishi and its bottom facing Kajal. Her face lit up with delight at this; make your choice," she said.

"I choose truth," Rishi said.

"Who is your backer?" Kajal asked.

"No one," Rishi replied without hesitation.

"You're lying; how can you do all this without any backing of a big clan?" Kajal expressed her disbelief.

"You're familiar with my condition, Kajal; I can't lie to you right now. As for how I'm going to do it all by myself right now, It could be because I'm that good," Rishi stated confidently.

"This time, you spin it," he added.

When Kajal spun the bottle, it began to spin in a uniform motion before stopping again. The outcome made Kajal smile, and she looked at Rishi as if asking for his preference.

"You've heard the rule, right? You can't make the same choice twice," Kajal said.

"What is your choice?" she asked.

"Is there even another option? It's Dare," Rishi said.

"Go to Nina and tell her that her dress doesn't look good on her," Kajal joked.

"Kajal, I'm not going to be able to do it. Do you realize how much this will hurt her? Request something else, " Rishi tried to deny.

"Coward, why do you play this game if you lack the courage to complete even the most simple dare?" Kajal said.

"OK, I'll go," Rishi said, standing up and approaching Nina, saying, "Nina, I have to tell you something."

"What?" Nina asked.

"Follow me," Rihsi said as he led her to the corner before saying, "Your dress doesn't look good on you."

Nina was flared up; she thought she had not heard Rishi correctly and asked Rihshi, "Can you repeat it again?"

"I told you your dress didn't suit you," Rishi said.

Nina's face was filled with astonishment; she said, "What happened? It appears to be in good to me" She checked herself.

"Sorry, Nina, but it was a dare from Kajal. You look fantastic today," Rishi apologized.

"What kind of dare?" Nina asked.

"The Truth and Dare game's dare," Rishi replied.

"Kajal asked you to do it," Nina confirmed.

"Yes," Rishi replied.

"That witch," Nina said before turning to face Rishi. "Avoid that witch; she will corrupt your mind."

"Even if you got the Dare again, don't come to me; I'm forgiving you this time. You already know how little patience I have," she said Before leaving Rihsi.

Rishi sighed, feeling sorry for Nina. 'I'll make up for it tomorrow,' he said Before approaching Kajal, who was laughing at Rishi.

"I'll spin it this time," Rishi said as he sat down; he inhaled deeply and spun the bottle.

This time, the bottle spun for a more extended period before coming to a halt, and Rishi's lips curled up as he asked, "Now, Kajal, what will you choose?"

Kajal had a disappointed expression and paused before speaking the truth.

Rishi said, "I don't trust you, so drink the potion. It's a game rule, so I don't think it'll bother you."

Kajal was reluctant to drink the potion, but she had no choice. "Do you dislike or despise me?" Rishi asked.

It took some time for Kajal to respond softly, "No."

Rishi remained calm on the outside but overjoyed on the inside. Kajal said, "I will spin it this time," when Rishi was about to spin the bottle again.

She silently cast a spell to control the bottle, but Rishi interrupted her, saying, "Kajal, no cheating; you can't use magic."

"I did.." Kajal wanted to deny it, but she couldn't; her cheeks turned bright red when caught red-handed.

"According to the game's rules, you must perform a dare," Rishi explained.

"Who, exactly, wrote these rules? I've never heard of them." Kajal denied him.

"You can check online if you think I'm lying," Rishi said; Kajal checked and discovered that there was, in fact, that rule.

"Go to the stage and say loudly, Lolli, witch is the descendent of Thumbelina?" Rishi joked.

"No, you can't ask me to do something like that; Sakshi will torture me for the rest of my life if I did something like that," said Kajal as she tried to deny Rishi.

"Who is a coward now, sorry Kajal, but you must do it. Everyone is a friend here; There is no shame in having some fun; you can even clarify that it was a dare," he added.
