Chapter 3 - Chapter Three: The Game of Chess.

( Deku's monologue...)

Many billion of years ago, l sensed a uprising ominous denger.

I named it the ,' Game of Chess' .

When a pawn crossed the opponent side; the player could change the pawn to the knights, Bishops, Rooks and Queen.

Behind the game, those extravagant and lazy Gods are involve. they're using the living beings as the chess piece, for their entertainment. Turning them into nonsensical, fury and Bloodlust demons.

I'm neither taking the side of good or evil; nor the side of weak or strong.

My duty is to balancing between life and death.

They were breaking the balance, causing many problems.

Due to their act many innocent beings are dying, and the devilish offenders Are freely romring around.

But,It's not my duty, who hurts, suffers and praying for help; my occupation is balancing.

Tenebrous, a land under the Central plains religion, rules by the landlord, RenalHood.

" Be careful... Nor they'll hear us"

a old man said in a low voice. He was escaping with his family, far away from this hell. He had a wife, same as him; a son and a daughter, who is eldest, and some luggage.

After RenalHood became the landlord, the peace and prosperity was ended. He was a inhuman and greedy person. In Tenebrous, there no girls were safe until he alive; even so the people of Tenebrous complied but the result was, their daughter was raped and their son was killed.Some were tried to escape, they were caught by the Soldiers, and death.

The old man and his family was creeping into the forest, surrounded the land. They were afraid of their children future and safety, heading to another safe place.

" Daddy, my feet is paining...let take a rest" after walking along way, they all tired, especially his son.

" No, we can't take a rest, we are till in the Tenebrous areas" his sister was forbidden him, because there along way had left.

" just a little, okay" their father agree with them.

They took a shelter under a bush, hiding themselves. They're now till in the area of Tenebrous, and the soldiers were romring around.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps and sound of creaking, the soldiers were coming there.

" Hey, where are you going?"

" Fuu! They're have gone... let go".

" Ahaaa!" Suddenly the boy shouted.

Unfortunately, when hiding in the bush, a snake bit his son, and he sought.

" I said you, there someone there!".

" What are you looking?, go and catch them!"

Thud! Thud! Thud!

They're caught by the soldiers. The old man was begging, his son was bit by snake.

" please, my son... my son will die, please forgive us, we swear, we will never try to escape".

" If that fear had come into your before, then nothing will happen.You son is dying, and you family will die, that's your fault" one of soldiers said, blaming him.

" don't dare to touch me, you animals"

" leave me!!".

A soldiers caught his daughter's hand, and arrested him and wife. They left their son on the ground, dying.

" My son! My son... please, he is innocent, please save him" his mother was begging.

But, the soldiers remained silent, and loading them into the cages, for punishment, try to escape. All of them were terrified, for the punishment. The mother was crying, praying.

" Please, have someone there; come and save my family... please! Sob-sob- "

" Don't cry mother... Believes in Deku, he would save us" her daughter is devotion to Deku; although he didn't nothing much for human, nor for demon, still she believes in Deku.
