Chapter 48 - The Chess Of Luck Game Is About To Begin...

After bray was done challenging all the new world enders he went back to his cell, after waiting for a while and seeing that sloven didn't come he guessed that sloven didn't have any information for him, he brought out the king sixed bed from his storage space and laid on it, drifting off to dream land.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

Soon, a loud chiming sound resounded like warning bells that were mourning the events that were about to occur today, bray stood up from his bed with a solemn expression, he knew that today was the game chess of luck was today, although he wasn't too worried about himself he couldn't help but feel a sense of pity for those that would lose their lives.

Anyway, it truly doesnt matter, it's not like i am the hero that saves the world in the end. With this thought bray stood up and put the king sixed bed away and then equiped himself with the aterenoid shackles. He walked out of his room and saw sloven and the other three.

As soon as his eyes met hannah he noticed the expression on her face, it seems she understood the message i passed accross. Bray noticed that her expression was extremely solemn and cold, she looked as though she wasn't someone to be triffled.

Hannah found it unbearable that the two men that she could use as her puppets were able to escape her grasp easily, this caused her to be furious, she didn't even bother to look at them, after that bray's gaxe subconciously glanced at fres who shuderred at his sight before turning away, he hadnt forgotten how bray almost killed him with one punch for no reason.

Bray turned around and nodded at sloven for a moment before they all headed to the door, jungling sounds could be heard as their shackles clashed against each other. When they walked out they saw the guards looking at them with a smile, soon the guards unshackled them and began walking away.

They followed and ahead they could see some other world enders walking under the lead of the prisoners, bray's eyes gaxed at his surroundings, after leaving the aterenoid enforced walls of his and everyone else cell, he saw the familiar three way road. The red rays of the three suns immediately him them as they walked out.

Hmm, it seems that the sun is shining brightly today, bray snakled in remark as the scorching rays of red light hit him. The whole place was dyed red becauseof the light rays giving everything an eerie feel, bray followed the lead of the guards in front as they walked in the third direction, away fromwhere bray went through yesterday.

So my guess is right, previously bray noticed that for the first test they passed through the first passage way on his right, during the second test, they passed through the middle passage way, which led them to the stadium and now they were headed through the third and final passage way, which was at bray's left.

As they entered, bray saw multiple buildings lined up at either side of the aisle, he couldn't help but study, all the buildings seem to be of similar structure, bray exclaimed seeing that there was little to no difference inthe buildings, he didn't fully notice this in the night under the dark of the night, he could only faintly guess it then, now he could see that the only way to differentiate the large buildings was with the sign on the door.

LIQUOR CENTER… 10

ARMORY… 10

MECHANICS… 10

Bray saw multiple discriptions on the buildings but one thing was common with them, the number 10. It seems that all these belongs to the guards of prison cell 10, that means other prison cells have these kinds of buildings with their own individual properties. Bray studied as he walked.

After a few moments they reached a place that looked similar to the stadium of before, but there was some slight difference, this stadium wasn't as large, it was also rectangular in shape, as soon as bray and the others stepped in through the pitch black aterenoid door bray saw a number of white seats, numbering up to 40.

As soon as he entered his gaxe turned to the extreme end, there he saw five guards once again gathered there, of course ray, raphael, joe and xach were present, it was only the last person there that bray didn't recognise.

They followed the guard who walked forwards till they reached where ray and the other guards were seated, on five white throne-like seats, in front of them was another seat, one on opposite sides with a wooden stool in front, there was a chessboard which held chess pieces on it, by the side there was also teh ballot box, it was just as sloven had told bray, exactly how he imagined it.

I hope everything works out smoothly. Bray sighed as raphael stood up to once again begin explaining the rules of the game for today.

"Welcome everyone," as soon as raphael, who was seated in the middle, clad in a dark-blue office wear, stood up, he began speaking, "as you know, a game will once gain be held today, it is an interesting game to say the least, after all the game is one of my favorites." raphael smiled as he spoke.

Nervous expressions could be seen on the faces of the newly captured world enders, raphael seemed to notice this as he began giving an explanation, "the game for today is called the chess of luck, it is quite easy really," he then pointed at the ballot box in front of him, "this ballot box contains 100 lot papers, 50 of which are numbered 2 and 50 of which anre numbered 1."

He noticed the varying expressions of everyone, confusion, nervousness, panic, he continued. "Depending on the lot paper you draw, you would get to make either one or two moves, in essence if you draw ballot paper number 1, you get to move a piece once, but if you are lucky enough to draw ballot paper 2, you get to move a piece twice or two pieces once."

"The winners or those that end with a draw can be let off, but those that lose…" raphael paused for a moment, his aura increasing slightly, "im sure you know this isnt a place for unlucky losers, you will definitely be mercilessly killed!"

"If you don't know how to play the game of chess, you can come and pick a rule book here, it contains all you need to know about the game of chess," raphael pointed to a stack of books, after that he turned to the other guards, "i believe i have said everything, right?"

The all nodded, and raphael then said in a lighthearted tone, "then, let the chess of luck begin!"
