The room was quickly emptying, leaving dead silence in its wake.
Only Andrey, Prince Alextraz, and the sleeping Princess Eloise remained.
Alextraz’s blue glowing eyes looked too exhausted. His pupils were full of haemorrhages giving him a real devastated appearance.
The princess slept calmly. Her face seemed so gentle and fragile, yet it was in complete contrast with the serious and ambitious face Andrey remembered the first time he saw her.
“Except me?” Andrey asked in a low volume voice.
“Yes. It appears that the royal family owes you now.” The Prince spoke.
“Look…” Andrey intercepted, “Don’t think about it. All I need is a place to stay.”

The word revenge landed home with Andrey. He immediately narrowed his eyes and pulled out a satisfied smile. “What revenge, Alex?”“My mom. She actually died from old age.”“I’m sorry, I don’t think you can fight that.”“But my dad… The King died… in a battle with the legend.”“The legend?

Andrey spoke deeply. “I come from a world much similar to this one. Though the reason for my revenge is not so, how do I put it, ‘pure’ as yours is. I was betrayed. The people I loved the most tried to seal my power away. To this moment, half of my mana pool is off-limits. I can’t… use it. It’s as if it's non-existent. That’s why, I want to gather enough power and exact sweet revenge on them.”Alextraz smiled. “So you want people strong enough to come with you?”“That’s right. So… What will it be? Do you want me to help you, so you help me?” Andrey asked.Alextraz exhaled deeply. “Your power is enough to rival mine, and rival my guards as well. And… you’re saying it’s half of what you can?

Her big brown eyes looked into Andrey’s with the innocence and hope of a maiden. She wanted to rest all her faith into the red-eyed young man’s hands. The burden would weigh less. She could feel it. She knew of it. Certainty and comfort were what her intuition spoke to her when she looked at Andrey. He smiled confidently and slowly drifted his eyes to her brother’s. “I’m sorry, Eloise. I believe that Prince Alextraz might not agree with you.” Immediately after these words, Alextraz yelled, “I agree!” Silence filled the room, and he repeated.” I agree! We will treat you like one of us.” Alextraz trembled and covered his ears, lowering his head in defeat.

The dragon-powered lights of the kingdom’s buildings reflected into Eloise’s eyes, filling the already rich brown color of her iris. Andrey’s eyes explored each wall and corner of the room, expecting to find a clock somewhere, but failing to do so, he vacillated, “At what time does the sun come up?” The eighteen-years-old princess’ soft lips moved ever-gently, “It should come up exactly at six o’clock.” “Aha… And what time is it now?” Andrey slowly moved back as Eloise’s arms wrapped around his. “It’s somewhere around four.” her reply came almost instantaneously. “Um…” he looked at her eyes, which were as if sealed into his, “Don’t you think there’s a lot of time until then?”

You’re sure you can jump us at the exact location, right?” Andrey wariness showed as he raised eyebrows at Alex. “Stop trying to mock me. I’m the Prince of Strazjester! Of course, I can jump with the most fluent precision.” “Brother… Andrey Makiya… Are you certain that I can’t come with you? I can fight on par with you two! We’d be back-to-back and protect each other!” “No!” They both neglected her in unison. “Ugh… Okay… Then. Please, protect yourself! Keep careful watch of your backs!” “Of course,
Makiya 237. The Illuminated Knight
The buildings were aligned in a circle around the small plaza. Andrey and Alex were cloaked and waiting, leaning against the two-story building at which the higher-up pieces of the military puzzle were staying the night. Taking the head of a general was the real goal. Claiming it for the media and displaying Prince Alextraz Strazjester to be much more than what people took him for. But the fact that the building was swarming with higher ups was a detail the commoner they interrogated had failed to mention. Andrey and Alex had their heartbeats rising as the sound of thousands of desperate prisoners’ steps beating against the ground, finally liberated, were running out for vengeance and blood. Their frail and weak bodies, close to abolished by hunger, could now finally feast on whatever they laid their

“Immortal douche, my ass.” Amryr’s voice sounded behind the cracking noise.Andrey could see only darkness after the shattered mirror-like world of Golehanei’s game, his young student being his light in the confusing, lightless tunnel.Inhaling deeply, Andrey opened his eyes. The sight of the ancient being rotting right in front of him was the answer to the many questions that had just arisen. A black-and-white splash of energy cracked open the shell just seconds after Lord Red Eye’s awakening.“Amryr…” Andrey whispered.The loyal follower’s contrasting mana widened, making a splash, completely opening half of the shell.“Well, what can I say? The shell grew a lot from the moment that Golehanei noticed we had an ace up our sleeve.” Onyx smiled.Andrey’s eyes wandered from person to person, landing lastly on Dea’n’ha.“I see.

Oh, great! If I get his characters killed before mine die, then I’ll be the obvious winner, won’t I? Does this mean that I won’t die even if my Main Character dies? If I win first, then the game is over, right? The Thief Class struggled as his neck cracked multiple times due to the twist he did on his own. The opposing Knight Class screamed in an angry tone, “This is a living abomination! Die!” Seeing how The Thief Class’ body wouldn’t let go of the mighty sword, punches started raining on his face. The armored gloves dealt a lot of damage to the poor Thief Class, but it didn’t really matter. He had no mind left to notify him of the pain. All he had was one thing - desire to kill.

“The game… begins, challengers.” The start was announced by a mysterious voice and all of a sudden Andrey could see through the eyes of his main character. Interesting. Somehow I am seeing both what she sees and what I see as well. How does the human brain even manage to endure the simultaneous cognition stress? // Letters in BOLD are the main character’s telepathy to Andrey// My Master, what shall I do now? A most seducing and alluring voice resounded within Andrey’s mind. Oh! Is she actually capable of reasonable communication? Impressive. // Letters
261. The game begins
Conjured by nothingness in the air, five cards appeared, twice the size of a human. The terrain reshaped and all of a sudden, it appeared that Andrey was standing in a theater. Looking around, he could see many empty seats, but more importantly, the scene was incredibly vast. The things that were easily seen were a well in the middle, a tower next to it, a few chairs along with a wooden table. They seemed rather medieval and old, but that seemed to be the idea behind the whole game. Playing a medieval role in a theatrical scenery. “We already started!? How about you tell me what the game is about first, eh!?” Andrey shouted, his eyebrows narrowed due to his annoyance. Golehanei’s voice replied to him with a cold tone. “Be not so rushful, Andrey Makiya… de
260. Inner World-Shell
Besides the sound of an incoming wind torrent, Andrey appeared like a black thunder, piercing through the clouds, right after jumping off from the conjured black-and-white tower. After restoring his vision past the clouds, he immediately navigated at the ancient human, who was patiently waiting in his cradle. Swinging just slightly. A massive barrage of a hundred walls of rock erupted from the ground, creating a mighty shielding to protect Golehanei from the incoming battle-mage. The rumbling noise in addition with the ancient being’s impatience slowly arising worked as proof that Andrey had been passing through his defense effortlessly. A sword landed right next to the ancient’s throat. Stopped not by Andrey’s will, but instead by the incredibly precise and strong grip of Golehanei’s finger tips.
259. Life and Death are one and the same
Andrey put on a little smile in an attempt to mock the man, who claimed to be greater than them. “Does the superior being deal with conflicts with force or with wisdom? Time we found out, I say.” He expected his taunting words to provoke the being, and at least see an eyebrow get narrowed, but instead Golehanei spoke calmly. “Young Andrey Makiya, when wisdom finds its end, the forces of power take over. Such would seem to be the case, descendant.” A fist coming straight at Andrey’s face was immediately countered as the red-eyed battle-mage deflected the incoming knuckles by punching his opponent’s arm in the triceps with an upper-cut. Although unexpected, suddenly Golehanei forced his arm downwards, overpowering the fist, in an attempt to strike Andrey’s head, as if to slash it with a blade.
258. The hunter becomes The hunted
“Dea’n’ha!” Andrey startled at the sorceress. “Y-yes!” She replied in a frail voice. “Can you communicate with this golden-dressed freak!?” Dea’n’ha lowered her head and spoke. “I can only convert information with my Abyssal Crack magic… I can’t really drain the language abilities out of it. It’s like attaining something from the void.” “Tsk.” Andrey clicked his tongue and looked at the buffed, half-naked man, who had only black pants, golden belt, and a golden collar that went all the way from his neck to covering half his back and chest. The ancient human had a golden ring on his left pointing finger, and dark brown leather bracelets with gold imbued in them on both his wrists.
