Empress Yekana’s dinner party had ended not long ago. Jose was once again honored to be chosen by the Empress… he stayed alone in the embassy of the country of steel to play go with the Empress.
“I’m just a businessman… forget it, I might not even be a businessman. I’m just a programmer who makes games to entertain the public.”
Two black and white go pieces rotated between Joshua’s fingers. After a short moment of contemplation, Joshua picked up the black pieces and placed them on the chessboard in front of him.
“Programmer? Is this what the creator of the magic net calls himself? Joshua Arnold, I’ve investigated you… you’re very strange.”
Queen Yekana took a few seconds to pick up the white pieces and placed them next to Joshua’s black pieces, sealing off Joshua’s escape route.
This queen of the steel nation was actually a go expert! Joshua did not even know where she came into contact with this ancient game.
According to what Joshua knew, the current popular area of Go was only Hearthstone Tavern, as well as the spellcasters of the older generation of the Spellcasters’Association.
How did this queen obtain the go chessboard… if Joshua remembered correctly, the general stationed at the steel nation’s embassy seemed to go to Hearthstone Tavern to play two games when he had nothing to do.
Joshua’s speed was not as fast as Empress Yekana’s. After all, Joshua’s level of playing go was amateur.
“Your identity is the third Prince of the demon world, but your temperament does not fit with that of a chaos demon,”Empress Yekana stared at Joshua and said.
“Maybe it’s because I’ve been in Nolan for too long?”
Joshua pondered for a while and found the spot where Blackie landed. He barely broke out of Empress Yekana’s encirclement.
“Your temperament is also completely different from Nolan’s human, or rather… completely different from the humans of this world.”
Empress Yekana’s next move directly pushed Joshua to the point where he was close to desperation.
“Is There?”Joshua said and sniffed his own body. “Don’t tell me you also smell something salty on me?”
Queen Yekana was thinking about Jose’s next move when she was stunned by Jose’s words.
“I don’t quite understand either. The people I meet say that I’m a bit as decadent as a sun-dried fish.”
Jose said self-deprecatingly as he dropped another sunspot and prepared to break out of the encirclement again.
“Decadent?”Queen Yekana heard the adjective Jose and laughed lightly. “I don’t think they see decadence in you, but… They don’t care about this world.”
Queen Yekana’s words had completely declared Blackie’s death with her white stone. Joshua looked around for a while and could only raise his hands to declare his surrender.
“Lady Yekana, to tell you the truth… I may have saved the world several times without you knowing.”
Joshua counted the world trees that he had nurtured. If those world trees had withered as the heretic court had wished, the world would have fallen into chaos long ago.
The servant next to Empress Yekana wanted to step forward and tidy up the go pieces into the box, but was stopped by Empress Yekana with a gesture.
She personally picked up the black pieces on the chessboard one by one. Jose also understood what the Empress meant and began to tidy up the white pieces on the chessboard.
“You’re very weak in this game called go.”Queen Yekana put the black pieces into the box one by one and said, “But the information I know is… You’re the creator of this game.”
“Does the creator have to be very strong to play his own game? and Ms. Yekana, are you so sure that I’m the Creator?”Joshua said.
“Are you implying that I’m guessing your past identity? A… Visitor from a foreign land?”
Empress Yekana had already placed all of Blackie into the wooden box beside her.
Joshua did not say anything but clapped twice. This meant that he was praising this empress.
However, she had gathered so much information that she could deduce it. Although it was a little unexpected for Joshua, it was still within reason.
Unfortunately, even if she had guessed Joshua’s true identity… it was completely useless.
“Then what do you want to do, Ms. Yekana… Banish you as an intruder?”Joshua asked.
“Banish?”A smile appeared on Empress Yekana’s face again. “If I didn’t believe in God, I might have thought of you as an emissary of God.”
“Wait a minute, this topic is jumping a little fast.”
“There is no jumping. You have brought countless miracles to this world.”Empress Yekana was not stingy with her praise. “The Magic Net is a miracle that even gods can not create. There are also movies and these games…”
Empress Yekana grabbed the black spot in the wooden box beside her.
“Everything you have created has added a new color to this world! If I were to return to the country of steel from a year ago, I would definitely feel bored.”
Wait a minute! Joshua remembered that this empress should not be addicted to the Internet, but now it seemed that she was hiding something?
“I don’t know how to answer this series of compliments,”said Joshua.
“You don’t need to answer, because your existence has always had a great regret for me.”Queen Yekana placed the two black pieces on the chessboard.
“What regret?”Joshua could only take out the two white pieces and placed them on the other side of the chessboard.
“You are a demon, and a prince of the demon world.”Queen Yekana sighed. “It would be perfect if you were a man of steel, so that I can let you write some stories that I like.”
Stop! So that’s why he said so much?
Joshua’s hand that was holding the chess piece stopped in mid-air. He did not dare to make any more moves.
“But it’s not too late now, Joshua Arnold.”
Joshua interrupted the Queen’s words. In that instant, Joshua had goosebumps from the desire in Queen Yekana’s eyes.
“It’s getting late today. I’m sorry that I can’t play the second game with you.”
Joshua immediately stood up from his seat, but the favor Queen Yekana had for him could be used to make many things.
“But we can work together. The Demon World is willing to work with the country of steel. Also… I have a project that requires the country of Steel’s outstanding technology in forging magical machinery.”Joshua threw a white piece on the chessboard, the white piece accurately landed in the center of the chessboard.
“And we have a common enemy, Lady Yecana… the real evil is lurking in the darkness of this world. The sages of Nolan should have warned you.”
