The Game Rune System - Chapter 87

From all her interactions with men, Tetsuya topped over everyone!

For the time being, it was hard to tell whether he had been charmed by her as well, but Tetsuya’s help always ended up with him exceeding expectations.

Yara Yu also couldn’t tell whether she finally found a man she could be friends with, but her heart didn’t seem disappointed at all after Tetsuya stated his desire.

His words ‘I am a little mad now’ were kinda ambiguous anyway and she found it fun to think about him.

Was her guess right? Was Tetsuya mad because someone proposed to her or there was another reason?

As Yara Yu began to think more about him, she slowly began to fall for the man with sealed looks and that was how Tetsuya more or less predicted things to go.

He noticed this and smiled faintly… It seemed like Yara Yu would be his moderator soon enough, so Tetsuya began to consider his plan deeply.

It was a kinda good moment to expose his real looks that would change things!

“I would like to have this man alive… He is a descendant of an important person to me,” Tetsuya said, then pointed at Thera Wojte who was one of Milady Yuhi’s descendants.

His current partner looked at him, “I will keep this in mind,” Yara Yu replied.

Though it was not their goal to fight everyone, there would be some mishaps that might end someone’s life in the process.

By keeping an image of Thera Wojte in her mind, Yara Yu would be able to lower the chances of anything bad happening to him from her side.

Tetsuya also would keep an eye on him, then the duo left the inn after the nobles.

“Do you know what he is doing with this noble? This noble name’s Verdia Unke,” Yara Yu whispered while following this very noble and his people.

Tetsuya found this name weird, but the surname sounded pretty good, “I don’t know… My guess is that he wants to get some status here and establish connections between two provinces.”

“That might be true… The Verdia Household have mountains in the southern part for themselves… It’s said that they can reach other provinces through these. These routes are wholly safe and protected by them… They have a lot of merchants under them and some jokingly call them Noble Merchant Family…” Yara Yu replied.

Hearing this, Tetsuya nodded a few times then thanked her for such valuable information. The lady understood now that Tetsuya wasn’t that knowledgeable about Tonghen Province and that he should be from somewhere else.

They began to learn more about each other in such a sneaky mission, but no one disturbed them here nor even knew about them outside, so both of them were really open and it just felt great.

As Verdia Noble’s faded within the dark forest, Yara Yu and Tetsuya sped up a little and entered the dark forest.

However, it seemed like the forest was too dark for some reason.

“Who are you?” The noble’s voice then rang out.

He revealed himself out of the darkness with a smug smile and aura fitting a noble. The man also had his underlings hidden somewhere, so Tetsuya couldn’t take any bad steps at all!

Verdia Unke was aware of it and revealed his confidence to strengthen this mental effect.

Tetsuya soon spoke, “I am nobody, but you are Verdia Unke, aren’t you?” He spoke with a high confidence as well, “I don’t think a noble should enter other parts as easily as you had done… Now, that’s different if you want to be an mercenary or give up on those noble rights… But would you take such a group with yourself if you wanted to become an adventurer?”

“So you knew me. It means you can not be any normal person… And not noble as well… What noble would hide their faces under a hoodie?” Verdia Unke asked. For all this time, he had been displaying his face without any cover, because he was the noble.

He answered Tetsuya that he didn’t plan to become a mercenary nor to give up on his noble rights!

But it didn’t answer the question!

Nonetheless, Tetsuya shrugged, “I am not noble and I don’t plan to be one.” He took out the weapon, the wooden sword, then used the royal darkness secretly.

This rune allowed Tetsuya to somewhat see through this darkness that was created by an external item.

After Tetsuya located the item, the noble flinched, “Stop him!” Verdia Unke noticed that Tetsuya’s eyes deeply looked at the area where the item was, so he instantly ordered his people.

Many underlings descended like bats at Tetsuya and Yara Yu, but both of them let out their powerful runes to surround them with pure aura.

“It seems like we have to make these people unconscious first,” Yara Yu said, then her hand lit up in the lighting. She then swept her hand and lightning bolts began to appear from the sky, the exact same location that those men came from!

Tetsuya was inwardly surprised as his game rune didn’t record this lightning rune… Did it mean that he had limits? Of course he had!

Learning about this, Tetsuya smiled faintly… ‘Experience… I need more experience. By being close to this woman, I will see through more stronger people! Yara Yu… I want to make you mine so much…’

The second moderator would outshine Reyas if Yara Yu were to become one. But Tetsuya knew that Reyas’ drive to get influence and power. Who knew how much she developed the moderator role already?

“It’s not time to think about her. It’s nice that you think about her, but focus on your enemies first! Don’t let Yara Yu take all the spotlight!” Ashley shouted from inside, then sighed. Immediately after, her laughter followed and both game masters just smirked.

“My bad,” Tetsuya replied, his voice filling Ashley’s heart with pride and warmth.

He then unleashed his wooden sword and moved forward to seize the underlings! They used various weapons and items to fight head on, but Tetsuya’s high stamina and strength neutralized those naturally.

His beautiful swordsmanship also went all out, so nothing touched him nor influenced.

Verdia Unke narrowed his eyes with anger, then took out more stuff. This stuff was just more powerful items that were reeking off with the prestige! He used another dark element and summoned the dark spectres that went for Yara Yu’s enemies!

It was because Tetsuya distanced himself from the noble and went for Thera Wojte instead!

“This noble has some nice rune that works through items? We will see later!” Tetsuya laughed heartily, then slashed through more underlings.

They just were nothing against the game master, but Verdia Unke’s runes and items combination began to cause some problems to Yara Yu!

“It’s pointless to hide identity now…” She whispered to herself, the more elements began to pop off. All of those made her seem like the queen as the hoodie disappeared from her face!

The queen, the grand mage and any other titles would suit Yara Yu whose looks just began to get emphasized by various elements.

Seeing her beauty, Verdia Unke froze… He then went mad and turned into half dark spectre himself. Followed by an army of those, Verdia Noble began his assault, “Another spar, Yu?! I will make you mine now! NO ONE WILL STOP ME!”

“You won’t get my attention in this way,” She replied, then the powers clashed heavily! The whole world trembled from their battle, but it was not the only thing that had been trembling so far.

There was Thera Wojte whose legs were shaking in front of Tetsuya…

This swordsman just killed people, his sword seemed as if cutting through paper! The man felt like he made a huge mistake by bringing Vedia Unke here and began to regret that!

However, he wouldn’t die without any battle. Soon, Thera Wojte began to summon the similar dark spectres that the noble used!

“You have his rune?” Tetsuya asked with big eyes.

Thera Wojte uttered faintly… “Who knew? Maybe if not you… then my plan would have succeeded in the future…” His red eyes narrowed with regret, then Thera Wojte unleashed his army at Tetsuya!

Those dark spectres looked like a problem, so Tetsuya just used his voice, “Thera Wojte, right?”

“You… You know me?” The man replied with shock!

“I do know you… Look at my swordsmanship now…” The River Calm Rune and Milady Yuhi’s swordsmanship swept through the dark spectres whose strength had been lowered due to the appearance of the aforementioned runes.

Thera Wojte stopped trembling and his shock kept deepening. One could see his face paled and sweaty from this show, “W-what happened… to mom!? What did happen back at Yulia Household…” He whispered faintly… thinking that something bad happened that the outsider could use these runes so good and easily…

“I am one of her people… Well, I am not going to listen to you, though. You can understand this, right?” Tetsuya smirked, “Now, tell me about that plan of yours…”

Thera Wojte found immense respect for his mother in Tetsuya’s voice… He also got a letter in his hand already… Looking at this letter and the first words written, Thera Wojte believed Tetsuya from the bottom of his heart.

He hid the letter in his pocket as it was not time for him to read it, “My plan… is to take over Verdia Household…”

“Oh, nice…” Tetsuya commented as such and then began to listen attentively.

The rampaging nobles from behind completely deafened their conversation, so both men spoke normally…
