Chapter 40: More development
"You are back!" Reyas shouted at Tetsuya who returned with two additional people back to his village. Their clothes were high and worthy of admiration, so it was clear that they weren't slaves at all.
Reyas didn't care about those people, though. She sounded happy about Tetsuya's return and didn't hold back. Her hand passed the report from all her work and questions kept falling onto him.
Of course, Tetsuya kept his head high and smiled at Reyas, "You missed me this much?" He laughed and then whispered, "Good work. I can see that you have worked hard, so come to my house later." Tetsuya also called out one of the former bandit bosses and told him to guide Karola and Yurek through Redemption Village.
Karola's will to become the great player might turn out to be a good influence to others, even though everyone was already hard-working.
As for Yurek, he will surely share his knowledge with all those people and make the Redemption Village bloom!
Leaving these two after small talk, Tetsuya headed to his house where the MOBA BOARD development shall begin!
He lied on his comfy bed, closed his eyes, then headed to the board that was still only accessible through mind.
The empty world was so pathetic that Tetsuya barely could smell or rely on his eyesight. However, the latter could be easily fixed with the earth rune! It was time to make the minions for the moba game.
Tetsuya's ears rang out with the pleasant sound, "Tetsuya!" It was obviously Ashely, "How will the minion look like? Let's make it a little snowman!" The snowman as a minion sounded weird and it would at most be an event in Tetsuya's former world's games.
Why would his partner choose such a minion, "Why do you want a snowman?"
Ashley coughed, "Because I have never seen one." She sounded a little awkward, but Tetsuya quickly reminded Ashley that he had earth rune, not the snow one! He laughed too which brought up a pout out of Ashley's soul form.
She just waved her hand at him and asked for his minion, "What will your minion look like then?" The game master's answer was brief, "Just a small soldier clad with sword and shield. The other type will be an archer soldier." There were two kinds of minions in the MOBA Game Tetsuya planned.
The first one, the soldier, marches first and his attacks are melee. The other type was the archer who stands in the second row and does more damage.
While the former is more tanky and his more HP, the other is easier to kill.
"Simple, but we do not need any fancy minions!" Ashley didn't mind the soldier minion idea and agreed with her partner.
On the other hand, Tetsuya just agreed half-way, "We will have monsters more fancy." He planned to go around the world and catch all powerful and mighty looking monsters, so that his players would have a lot of fun.
Tetsuya also was ready to get all the benefits from being the game master.
Upon his return, Reyas not only passed the report about the Redemption Village but also shared the players' level growth. It was just a matter of time before Tetsuya got another potential boost to his strength.
Ashley also could expect some proper stats.
"Let's see." Tetsuya took out the purple cube, then soaked the game rune within it. The cube didn't refuse the earth rune at all as its sole purpose was already planned by the game master.
The purple cube played with the new rune for a little, then Tetsuya's empty board got two minion spawners across the land.
"It's really far away." Ashley commented.
"The map is big and the players will have a lot of running to do." Tetsuya confirmed that the spawners were ready to do its job, then left the board. However, his body didn't move out of the bed yet.
It was time to absorb all the stats and make himself even stronger.
Each time Tetsuya got stats, his mind flashed with a powerful image of a red rose. This flame and the person behind it were constantly reminding him that there was a peak he couldn't go against yet.
Though Tetsuya would never agree or mention it, he knew that she was out of his league.
Knock!
Precisely after Tetsuya ended absorbing his new stats, Reyas knocked onto the door and waited for him to invite her in, "Come in." His voice sounded a little tired, but Tetsuya just did a few important tasks so it was not that weird.
Once Reyas entered the room, she took the seat by the table and looked at the game master casually laying on the bed. He didn't look like the village's head or any master, but the commoner who was bothered by something.
Reyas broke the silence, "Did something happen?" Tetsuya's problems were her problem and she was ready to offer help as moderator.
Nonetheless, no answer came from Tetsuya's lips and he just returned to his usual self. Still on the bed, he turned his eyes onto red-haired beauty, "I have some stuff for you and the rest villagers. But tell me first what you are worried about?"
"It's the noble. I told you that they would aim for us, didn't I? They just want a lot of money, though." There was no way Redemption Village generated this much money and it didn't seem like they would in a few years as well.
So Reyas was annoyed and shared everything.
"I saw everything in the report. Don't worry much about nobles as I want them to notice us anyway. The goal is to learn more about the loyalty rune and build the proper MMORPG System around it. If they come again with the news, then just kick them." Tetsuya let out faint laughter, then raised his body, "I will inspect loyalty rune now. Have you heard of Yulia Household?"
"Of course. They are one of the three established families here and have deep ties in Mystic Academy." Reyas spoke with a little fear and respect.
Her eyes then went wide and her beautiful skin paled, "Y-you… You can't be serious… This is…" This was indeed Yulia Household's Loyalty Rune!
