Inventors system - Chapter 47: Domino 3
When Samael came forward to sit Morana on her seat others also found out that she was blind and everyone was very puzzled how a blind boy was going to play a game without her sight.
The next moment their questions were answered.
Even though her ‘seer’ affinity was very helpful in certain matters that didn’t mean it would help her see the tiles so she had to use her second sight.
‘Orion, Merge.’
One of her true tamer abilities merge. The moment Morana activated this ability her hair turned white and her eyes turned blue she also grew a pair of white fluffy ears and a tail.
It all happened at the speed visible to the naked eye and brought even more surprises.
“Hmm. So you are a true tamer huh.” Said Martha, also very surprised.
True tamers are so rare that even their existence was unknown to some and to others, they were just a legend.
Even though her sight was not the same with the merge and the colors she saw were different from what humans or other beings saw, it was still much better than being blind.
After everyone got over the news Martha shuffled the tiles in the middle of the table.
“You may each now pick 7 dominos.”
The moment Morana saw her hand she once again cursed her luck. The problem with her hand was that if she played it well and smart she could get good points but if she messed it up lots of points would be left for someone else.
Another unlucky thing for her was that Jia, who set left from her was going to start the game meaning she was the last player.
But taking advantage that all the other players didn’t know how to play the game at all she managed to score 45 points while Taner got 35 points Norman got 20 points and Jia finished the game and got 25 points. From the unplayed tiles of the three.
The first game ended pretty successfully and the second game began.
Morana knew that even though in traditional Domino it was most important to score but that was not the case here.
If one managed to get too many points then others would see that person as a threat and would attack, so sometimes it was better not to score even if you could do that.
Growing carefully and unnoticed and before any of them realized anything, fighting each other Morana would reap all the benefits of their labor.
In the next game She dialed it down a bit scoring 30 points while Jia scored 35, Taner scored 40 and Norman finished the game and scored a total of 50 points almost catching up with Taner and Morana who now both had 75 points each.
And Finally, it was time for the third game everyone was trying to score points well except Morana that is.
She only scored 20 points, making it a total of 95 points. She knew that unless it was necessary people would hypocritically try to act above others and not attack a child first so she used her appearance and age to her advantage not to stand out in other eyes and become a target.
While she tried to stay low-key, others frantically were trying to gain points in order not to die. In this game, Taner once again gained 40 points with Norman finishing a game and gaining a total of 60 points while Jia only managed to get 45 points after struggling finally making a total of 105 points.
And it was now time to vote.
At this moment Morana had 95 points, Jia had 105 points, Taner had 115 points and Norman had the highest 130 points.
Everyone was nervous they didn’t know if they should vote if anyone was going to vote for them but one person at the table was successfully neglected.
“You have 1 minute to vote, after 1 minute up the results will be announced.” Said Matha with a big bright smile on her face as if she was announcing today’s menu instead of someone’s execution.
After one minute was up Matha announced the results.
“Congrats no one died this time, so the next game shall start now.”
No one knew who voted for whom except for that person but Morana noticed Norman’s annoyed face and guessed that he must have been the one attacked. On the other hand, Taner let out a relieved sigh and so did Jia, her arrogance has now completely disappeared.
As the game progressed and it was now time to vote for the second time Morana managed to have a total of 205 points.
[Master what are you going to do next?]
‘I wonder what should I do?’ Said Morana with a mischievous playfulness.
[then will they attack?]
‘Now that they all know I have enough points they won’t hold back and attack in order not to let me grow, or that’s what they would have done were they not so stupid.’
[What do you mean master?]
‘Out of these three idiots that Norman guy is the smartest and even though he doesn’t show it he is also the most arrogant of them, after all, he knows he is smart. But the fact that he was attacked in the first vote touched his ego, he doesn’t like having lower points than others and seeing Taner’s smug look has blinded him. So he will definitely attack him.
I am not sure about the other two Taner has become quite fearless and might attack someone but he might also not attack anyone and try to score more points and win the game.
Okay, I have decided, let’s attack.’
And when it was time for the vote Morana also put in the name.
When one minute was up for some reason everyone looked happy not knowing that they fell into a little mad girl’s trap, unknowingly walking right towards their death.
