Chapter 87 - Chess

After we came back from our little trip we stay at the pavilion inside the Palace and start dividing out future little islands, we got a whole sack of floating Crystals and the other sack is in Bhumi`s our group are really happy on this little reward for the trip.

"It would take time before we could more islands." Nefra said looking at the whole sack full of Floating Crystals then she smiles. "But it`s great we don`t need to make a trip in that place for millennia!" Nefra said and we all nod, who want to go inside of that creepy cave? I`m sure the girls don`t like the place at all, it`s muddy, wet and gloomy place! Then, Reasius finish preparing the multi-layer lunch box and we began eating again.

"I must say, whomever cook this is great! Can we hire them?" Lucia said but I shook my head and look at Marina. "If you want to pissed Marina, do it!" I said and Lucia look at the gloomy Marina and chuckled.

"Alright, alright, alright. I am just joking, what about this, tonight we will still their recipe and read all the minds of the chef on that restaurant, then you will cook it?" Lucia said suddenly the gloomy Marina start smiling and her face started to bloom.

"Really?! I`ll do the cooking alright?" Marina said and Lucia nod. "That`s what I said." Lucia said and she shriek and hug Lucia. "I am so in love with you Lady Lucia!" Marina said and Lucia just laugh while her cheek is getting filled with kiss marks! But for some reason I am jealous, I don`t know if it`s from Marina kissing Lucia or Lucia being kissed by Marina.

"You're not really planning on stealing things, right?" Bhumi asked but Icy tap her shoulder. "Believed if I said this. They don`t fear anyone except Sauron`s anger, now do you think they will fear the security of a little restaurant?" Icy said and Nefra laugh, she sees how these girls do things!

"They love doing things in their own special ways, after all it`s just recipe, it`s not like they could not cook it again right? They help our Goddess to the curse that haunting us for millions of years, so we could turn blind eye on this one." Nefra said giggling and Bhumi look at them kind of awkward.

"Fine! I`ll look away on this one, but this would never happen again!" She said and Lucia and Marina giggle and hug her. "You're not so bad after all! When you visit the town I`ll make sure you get a great treatment! You will wish that you never leave the place ever again!" Lucia said and Bhumi for the first-time smile and laugh genuinely.

"Oh, and here! You could have this!" Marina said and from her spatial pocket she gets a chess set and Bhumi look at it with curiosity. "It is made with two kind of rare stones and the whole box is made from a rare wood, is this a cultivation material?" She asked but Nefra shook her head.

"This is the thing that turn my world value upside down! But sadly, your guess is all wrong! It`s a game called chess!" Nefra said and started arranging it, before Bhumi knew it she was hooked up on the game.

"It`s like war! I like this game a lot!" Bhumi said and they continue to play while eating soon Sera appear and look at what they are doing after a while she snap back and look at the two. "It`s your turn to guard our Goddess." Sera said then Rafti appear, the two look sadden but they obey and run.

"Those two are hooked up on chess." Rafti said and her face suddenly turn gloomy but soon she shook her head and look at us. "Did your little adventure enjoyable?" Rafti asked and we all nod and Sera and Rafti sit where Bhumi and Nefra are sitting.

"I like that game a lot!" Sera said and Marina take out another set and give it to her, when Sera saw it, she smiles widely and ready the pieces, Rafti then take the white side and move a pawn. "Anyway, we would like to thank you all for helping us solving this problem." Rafti said and we all nod.

"It`s nothing, we get many great things after all." I said she smile and nod and make her move. "As a thankful person I should war you." Rafti said and look at my direction.

"You should be careful on Greed, that man has no friends nor allies, his only drive is his own greed, if he thinks that your useless to him or he could find a way to destroy you, he will not hesitate and take the bite! Like what he did on the Old Demon Lord of Envy." She said and I knitted my brow and Icy shook her head.

"That`s the past Greed we are talking about, I`ve met Greed a very long time, since he had now a family, he understand fear now and his doing everything to make his family safe, a changed man, and if his hiding that old nature of his to me, then he perfected the art of lying, I have a dragon eye! As one of royal daughter of the Dragon King, my eyes can detect truth and lie." Icy said smiling.

"But we will remember that warning… but by any chance you're not saying this because of your little encounter on the table, right?" Icy said and Rafti shook her head. "No, I am not, we already make a promise to fighting." She said but before we continue this small talk the Guard Chief appear.

"My Lady! The Young Lord of War is here!" She said and we look at her direction. "Young Lord of War?" I asked and I saw Rafti`s eye turn gloomy.

"It`s the son of the God of War, the Young Lord, he always pesters my sister Nefra." Rafti said and look at the Guard Chief. "Tell him that all of us are in deep cultivation, Don`t let him set his foot near the palace nor the islands circling the palace! Activate the level one defense array!" Rafti said and crack his head.

"And if he had the guts to attack the array tell me that if he really wants to marry my sister I`ll have a duel with him to the death! It`s either he killed me or I kill him!" Rafti said with killing intent then she checkmates Sera.

"Yes! My Lady!" Guard Chief said and fly away. "I really want to have conversation with all of you more but desperate time needs desperate measures!" Rafti said and leave the place, only Sera is here.

"Oh my! She`s really angry." Sera said giggling and I got curious. "Is this Young Lord really that annoying?" I asked and Sera nod and prepare the pieces again and she made the first move this time and I touch the black piece.

"Yes! He is, the only son of the God of war really entered his head and think that all the beauty is in his disposal! He first tried to court Sister Rafti, but with her explosive personality he knows that only death awaits him! Then he also tried Sister Bhumi and before he could open his mouth Sister Bhumi break half of all his bones! Now his target is Sister Nefra, for hundreds of thousands of years, and now that Sister Nefra is kind and lovely his drive to marry her reach the top!" Sera said and I smile.

"What about you? In my eyes I could tell that your beauty is not away from theirs and with the right proportion he should be targeting you." I said, well truth to be told she has a massive pair of mountains, topping the three other angels.

"I also wonder why? Maybe because he knows that ones he tried, he either become a waste as a man or die." Sera said and giggle, even I got goosebumps to that! This woman is not to be messed with! "Anyway, compare to Lady Lucia here, I lost." She said looking at the twin mountain.

"Aw, it`s not that big, my sister Night has bigger asset." She said lovingly that everyone agreed, if you compare it in mountains theirs like Mt. Everest but hers is the Mt. Olympus Mons! The gap is heaven and earth! Even Lucia don`t know the mystery on those gigantic melons.

"Grr! Every time I remember that I feel inferior! I mean if our is a weapon to bring cities and countries down hers the whole universe! That is much more dangerous than any weapons combine! Is even her shoulder ever got stiff?!" Reasius said fuming with anger, then they all look at me but I look at other direction after I checkmated Sera. This is one of those times that you should not answer or your house will be in flame.
