Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: If He’s a Good Guy, I’ll Eat This Table Right Now!

From Player 8's perspective, this makes sense because Werewolf is a game of speech, filled with endless possibilities.

We can't say that a player's consideration of certain possibilities is wrong. Good players are naturally suspicious and imaginative.

That's completely normal.

"Now, both prophets want to check me. Fine, give me a double 'golden water' (verified innocent) status then."

"But Player 7 is also using 'there must be a wolf in the non-sheriff voters' as a logical base, claiming to check either Player 12 or 10 and eliminate the other. Isn't that another fake logic?"

Logical reasoning in this game works this way—there's both straightforward logic and counter-logic.

Neither is absolutely correct. If you could instantly find an ironclad logic at the start, the opposing team would just surrender.

Of course, logic must also be combined with a player's speech, demeanor, and skill level to deduce their identity.

"I think we don't know what strategy the wolf team is using."

"If we base our logic on guessing the wolf team's plan, we'll definitely get played by them."

"I'm siding with Player 2. His perspective and speech feel more natural."

"Player 6 is using Player 2's so-called 'logical flaw' as a basis to claim that Player 1 and I (Player 8) aren't on the same side."

"I think this is fake logic."

"Also, I know this Player 6—Lin Tian, the big star of 2030!

The 'Amateur Wolf King' who once instantly identified four wolves in a single game!"

Lin Tian stared at Player 8, unsure where this was going.

This guy's probably up to no good.

"But did you know? After that, he never sided correctly in any match. Totally useless."

"If you're matched with him, winning is easy—just oppose whatever he says, and victory is guaranteed."

Player 8 believed someone like Player 6 was only here because the organizers wanted clout.

Even a disgraced rat gets dragged into tournaments.

"Player 6 is either a clueless fool who can't pick sides or a wolf charging into battle. There's no third option."

"Player 7, your speech was actually good, but sadly, you're teamed up with this stinky rat, Player 6. Tough luck for the wolf team."

"If he's a good guy, I'll eat this table right after the game!~"

The table in front of everyone instantly flew into Player 8's mouth.

The massive round table stretched Player 8's mouth two meters long, left dangling above the players.

​​[Warning! Warning! Player 8 has violated rules with inflammatory/off-game remarks. Repeat offenses will result in immediate elimination!]​​

​​[All players, take heed!]​​

Player 8 held his giant mouth open as the room erupted in laughter—he'd literally eaten the table.

Seeing personal attacks backfire, Player 8 quickly switched tactics.

"After hearing Player 2's speech, Player 6 immediately dismissed him."

"Then he fabricated a so-called 'explosive flaw,' which I think is just forced criticism."

Player 8's skepticism stemmed entirely from doubting Player 6's abilities.

He refused to believe Player 6 could magically identify the later-speaking prophet.

"Since we don't know Player 2's skill level, we should allow prophets to have varying styles."

"Good players need to tolerate some margin of error with divine roles. That's why I can't side with the 6/7 team."

"Plus, Player 7 accepted Player 6's stance way too quickly. I suspect they're colluding."

"From my view, Player 6 found a flaw in Player 2's prophet claim, then signaled Player 7 to hype up the later-speaking prophet."

"This raised everyone's expectations for the unspoken players."

"I don't trust Players 6 and 7—they're too skilled."

"Good players wouldn't blindly trust an unspoken prophet. A prophet who hasn't checked anyone yet accepts Player 6 as innocent?"

"Letting Player 6 dictate who to check? Might as well hand Player 7's prophet role to Player 6."

This was indeed a vulnerability, but Player 7's gut still leaned toward trusting Player 6.

Maybe it was the warmth Player 6 showed earlier.

"For now, I'm sticking with Player 2."

This was reasonable. Aside from the universally despised Player 6, he'd never met the others before.

While Player 6's logic stunned him, betting his life on it was too risky.

He'd ignited a doubt in the good players' minds: What if Player 6 is actually a hyper-logical wolf?

Or the fifth wolf who keeps siding wrong?

Thanks to Player 8's exposé, trusting Player 6 became nearly impossible.

Lin Tian didn't argue—five years ago, he'd chosen family over his Wolf King glory.

As for Player 8's identity, he had no clues yet.

This game turns good players into endless skeptics.

The livestream chat roared:

"This handsome uncle nailed it—spoke my mind!"

"Ate the table and still yapping? Legendary mental fortitude!"

"Waiting for the recap. Check Player 6's face!"

"His stinkin' ego could cure diseases by now."

"Let's see Player 2 confirmed as prophet and shut Player 6 down!"

"I'm with Player 2. Players 2 and 3 clearly aren't aligned. How'd Player 7 trust Player 6 without checking him?"

​​[Player 9's Speech]​​

Player 9 flexed his biceps and said:

"Two prophets—Player 2 vs. Player 7. I'm torn."

"Based on solo speeches, Player 7 analyzed more from a later position."

"I initially leaned toward Player 7, but after Player 8's points…"

"Player 7 checked Player 4 (a 'golden water') who's off the sheriff platform. Feels like baiting votes."

"Player 2 checking Player 3 is a bold move, credibility-wise."

"But prophets don't know who'll be on the sheriff platform or speaking order when choosing checks."

"Using that alone as 'credibility' isn't enough to confirm a prophet."

Player 9 was a chronic overthinker, prone to spiraling.

He'd dissect one logic, then flip to its counter.

"Purely on speech, Player 7 edges out. Soft support for now, not locked in."

"Players 1 and 3 seem fine."

"Players 5 and 6? One's hard pro-Player 2, the other pro-Player 7. Either elites or charging wolves."

The room: Wow, groundbreaking.

"But Player 6 > Player 5. He analyzed Player 2's logical flaw—that made sense."

"Player 8's rant about Player 6's past? Irrelevant. I judge by speeches and gut feelings."

"No way Player 6 found a prophet's mistake just to signal Player 7."

"Fake-deep comments like 'Player 2 isn't this type'? Too dramatic—we're strangers here, not buddies messing around."

"That'd just spotlight himself!"
