Chapter 28: The MOBA Board is ready for development
"One more" The old man's shock couldn't be described. Such a skill comes from the experience and years of playing with many grandmasters, but the younger man was just destroying him in the game.
Every move was just countered perfectly "It's getting darker." Tetsuya added, but he also put the figures on the board. Looking at the board with his calm and collected eyes, the knowledge from his world flashed through his mind.
Vivid moves made by grandmasters. Tetsuya has seen those, but he also remembered every rule and explanation made by those grandmasters. In the end, the chess' board was limited and so its moves.
"It is" The old man just lit up the old lantern, then put it to the side. A small light coming off it exposed Karola's face. She was amazed by Tetsuya and enjoyed both of them playing the game.
Their matches were going for a long time, so the lady prepared tea and even snacks for them, then her eyes continued to look at the shocked old man. The more it continued, the more Karola just began to enjoy the old man's anguish.
She also got the favour from the old man now as she was the one to bring Tetsuya here.
"Alright I guess there is no chance for me" The old man uttered, but he still moved a figure. He decided to speak while playing, to which Tetsuya had no problems at all.
This chess game would easily explain Tetsuya's usual phrase 'The World is betraying me'. While the access to knowledge was easy in his former one, it was far different in this world. He had to go through many obstacles and even find a lucky person to get knowledge from.
Older people were often respected by Tetsuya. Though Tetsuya surely wouldn't waste time if the older person wasn't knowledgeable and rich in experience.
He took it easy with the old man as the flowers here were certainly boosted with some kind of rune. It made Tetsuya enjoy the place, but also feel that these were sharp weapons. If the old man was knowledgeable, then Tetsuya wouldn't bother much with finding other sources of information.
"What do you need from me?" The old man finally asked.
"Sharma Clan. It's a lost clan." Tetsuya said, his figure knocking the old man's one. He then looked deeply at his opponent to see through his eyes. It was often hard to see through those, but Tetsuya just needed to confirm one thing.
'He knows.' Now that the old man really knew something, Tetsuya pressured him further, "I want to know what exactly their clan was and what was the use of their rune?"
The old man rubbed his chin, then said, "Desert Army." He also needed to recollect his thoughts and dig out every rumor he heard about this clan. It's been a really long time since this clan's prime moments, but they were also from far away place.
"Desert Army." Tetsuya said it again, then an idea got born within his mind. Of course, the two still played the chess game, but the old man was far slower as he had another important task in his mind.
"Their rune allowed them to bring an army of sand. I heard that the royal blood was the absolute in their clan. Even a failure descendant would be chosen as the clan head if his royal blood was more pure."
"It's because of the rune. How exactly did it work?" Tetsuya asked yet again.
"Normal descendant or member of the clan would be able to summon a small army and teach them one or maybe two orders. The stronger you were, the more orders you would be able to teach to your soldiers. The max was five if I am correct."
Tap! The king's figure moved.
"But the clan head had way more orders. It wasn't known how many exactly, but the clan head with the purest bloodline could control every army. He also could pass his own orders to the soldiers and make them do things the normal descendant couldn't. Their lineage was pretty pitiful as only one royal descendant could do it. If other descendant's bloodlines were even a little worse, they would lose such an ability."
The old man stated the harsh reality.
Tetsuya was not that surprised as it was always better to have one king, at least that was how he saw the world. He ended the chess game with an absolute victory, then the old man said a few more rumors.
"Their clan was strong for many lineages, but the failure truly took the clan head's seat. He had his own advisors, but the failure was still failure. He not only didn't listen to his advisors, he became like chicken the moment he lost those. Nothing lasts forever. That's a valuable lesson."
"If you were the advisor, what would you do?" Tetsuya casually asked, but it was clear he was content with the information he got.
"I would look forward to the future and obviously tried to secure it. I would marry the failure off to powerful lineage with similar rune attribute and then put the descendant in the clan. The next generation would feel closer to the clan in this way."
"That's fair." Tetsuya laughed as it was a good plan. But he then asked a question that led to the bomb! "The Sharma Clan lived in the desert?"
"Correct." The old man answered.
"What if I told you that their rune and bloodline were not the desert attribute?" A sneer spread on Tetsuya's face after he said it. This smile piqued the old man's interest even more than these words.
It meant that Tetsuya knew something that even the rumors and everyone else didn't know!
"It would be shocking, but I would love to see the proof." The interest was reaching the skies or the moon now. The interest in runes was normal one as one would gladly accept any stronger type rune to get more strength.
And learning about runes would help one in unexpected situations.
"This is the proof." Tetsuya showed the original rune that was different from the runes described in the history. But the old man knew what the original rune was and what kind of feeling it gave off.
The original rune was not just the stronger type with unique abilities, but it was also the rune that could be rewritten.
"My heart" The old man grasped his shirt, clenching it tightly. "T-this is the original rune It also If this rune belongs to Sharma then you"
"I am not their descendant and I found it here. The soul remnant probably used his power unconsciously to move the earth, but he didn't move the sand, but the earth. I also believed it was the earth rune due to it. But now, I am certain." Tetsuya played with the rune as if it was a toy. This made Karola and the old man tremble with fear
"This rune's power is to create an army out of anything. Well, I can't tell its limits, but I have an idea for this rune." Tetsuya then began to feel something happening within his mind. He was about to tell the 'world' about his idea, but it was exactly the development the game master needed.
"Hah The old man What's your name?" Tetsuya asked while feeling blissful for the 'change' that happened within his mind.
[THE MOBA BOARD has been successfully opened by you. The MOBA Main rune is ready for the development.]
"It's Yurek." The old man quietly whispered.
"There is a game far more interesting than chess. A game that will swallow this world whole and change its rules. In this game, one gets stronger by killing the so-called minions." Tetsuya hid the original rune within his inventory, "This rune will create minions."
Yurek's eyes narrowed, "This game is in development, then?" He asked carefully as there was a reason why would Tetsuya mention the game to him.
"It is." Tetsuya stood up slowly. While looking at everyone from above, "I want an earth attribute rune for now. A low type, but still stronger than those strengthening runes that the idiot villagers use." He then went for a walk. Of course, Tetsuya told Karola that he wants her to be by his side.
But he knew that the old man wanted to pass some wise words for her, "Karola You just brought someone incredible to me Did you see how he treated the original rune?"
"I saw Ah, so your name is Yurek."
"Shut up and listen. Someone who played with the original rune from the lost clan like that surely has even stronger rune within himself. It's your time to give up on that mercenary life and chase the better one."
Karola just blinked her eyes, then sighed, "I just brought him here. It's you who helped him with your wisdom, so I would be better returning to mercenary life and chasing for what's open here." Karola just faced reality, but the old man shook his head.
"You have to become a woman that is good at his game." This made Karola stupefied, "I don't know what exactly is his game, but it's worth trying. Not like you will die out of hunger or lack of money."
"I will live a worse life, though" Karola closed her eyes tightly in a protest.
"Does he look like a man who lives a worse life? Just enjoy the wilderness that comes with him. Hehe, I will also try to work with him for as much as possible. It's time to use my old connections." Yurek laughed out loud as he also stood up to stretch his body.
"It's weird to see you moving, haha!" Karola laughed, then also stood up. It was time for both of them to bet on something unpredictable, but it was also fun on its own. "He seems like a good guy, but he is also weird, so be careful."
"Hah! Every strong bastard is weird. You just gotta learn how to deal with them." Yurek then used his rune and the flowers began to return to their 'seed' form. All those seeds disappear in the small bag with dirt.
"But it's amazing how one rune can change things." Karola uttered with her blue eyes looking at the moon, "Do you think I will be able to influence others in the future too?"
"If you work hard and follow that lucky chance, then Who knows? Haha!"
"It's weird to see you laughing so much." Karola uttered.
"Weird this, weird that. I am just excited. And you also better get used to the changes." Hearing this, Karola raised her shoulders, then dropped heavily before going to Tetsuya.
