“Better luck next time,” Kurapika said in mild amusement, knowing that he had won even without having to look at the coin. “I should think that you would be man enough to keep your end of the bargain and remain muted for the rest of the hour.”
Nobunaga was steaming at the ears and frothing at the mouth, but a deal was a deal, and he was a samurai. He gave a strained, furious sort of nod, pocketed the coin, and stalked off in a murderous cloud of Nen.
“Aren’t you nasty,” Kuroro murmured from his seat on a crate, a hint of a smile on his face as he flipped the page of his new book.
“If I knew it would be this easy to end our arguments, I would have done it long ago,” the blond shrugged. And he rarely used the method, anyway, just on particularly tiring arguments that neither of them was willing to back out of. “It’s his fault for not suspecting anything.”
“But even I remember that trick,” Shizuka piped up from her place at the warehouse’s corner. “Spider, I win. Web, you lose.”
“It’s probably because you have a bigger brain than he does.”
