The Game Rune System

By playing this game tag with grand devils and other weaker ones, Tetsuya began to conquer enough items to create a set that would help him deter small devils with glance enough.

He also got an item that helped him read the grand devil's memories.

[The Grand Devil's Reveries]

Looking over this item that was like a scroll hiding all secrets, Tetsuya unfolded it and began to read about its content.

The life below the ground, the other races confided here and the appearances of not only demons, but also other races with the similar status. All of them had settled here as if trying to take control over the underground!

Tetsuya's eyes narrowed, "Anna?" This name wasn't anything special. How many people had it back in his world? In this world, this name also shouldn't be anything special yet Tetsuya's eyes stopped.

One of his girlfriends had this name, but that was the only thing he shared with it. Why would he think of her in this world? The game master's eyes narrowed deeper, then he read more of the content.

He found out about the fairy queen's name; Maya. She was once caught by the devils, but she managed to escape and flee somewhere. A lot of grand devils assumed that she had escaped below, to the underground.

Though it was weird as even the fairy advisor believed she had escaped somewhere to the neighboring races, Tetsuya felt like the queen would think that the darkest place was under the candle!

She had tricked a lot of people, including her own race.

Returning to the hidden camp of fairies, Tetsuya got news that the fairies' technique pointed up below. In this case, the queen truly had escaped below and all fairies began to show signs of dismay and fear.

Much more fairies had gathered in the first camp created by Tetsuya, "Do you happen to know a way to the underground?"

"Tetsuya… That's too dangerous. Even with all items, you could only face one grand devil," Milady Yuhi cut instantly and pulled Tetsuya's attention to her eyes. Those red jewels concealed a lot of worry.

This rash decision was surely because of Ashley and the queen's location! Nonetheless, everything would be pointless if Tetsuya were to die. She did her best to remind him of this.

With Ashley's help, Milady Yuhi achieved this feat.

Tetsuya took a seat in the camp.

Rather than a camp, it was like nature's cradle that did everything in its power to keep them hidden. The whole place would be okay even if one wanted to just live here peacefully. By no means this was a hidden camp.

Nonetheless, this gave Tetsuya another idea.

"Mayu, come and play a game with me," Tetsuya said with a warm smile.

-

It was a one versus one Moba Game.

In this world, Mayu had faced Tetsuya, but she totally couldn't understand this whole phenomenon. She could grasp the rules and follow them, but what was the whole point of their battles?

Even if those questions teemed her heart, Mayu focused on the minions and engaged in a battle with the game master.

The rules were simpler and the game master wanted to get the fairies' rune.

Though his plan wasn't to learn about the rune, but modify it through his demon bloodline. After the countless battles with Mayu, Tetsuya achieved some understanding and began to process it with his purple cube.

The fairy advisor left the moba board and glanced at him.

Sitting cross-legged, Tetsuya held the purple cube and clearly warned everyone to not disturb him with his presence alone.

Thus, Mayu took fairies and went to search for other fairies. Equipped with items from the mmorpg game rune, they were confident to find and save any lost lamb. At the same time, Tetsuya's plans were discussed within his mind.

"You want to modify the rune to find the queen?" Ashley responded.

"The rune has its abilities, but each potential player or rune user brings fresh air to the runes and creates their own techniques. It's a flexibility based on the bloodline and one's talents. I got enough bloodline from Mayu after our battles, so all that's left is to modify this rune." Tetsuya replied.

The countless abilities were written in the bloodline along with the knowledge and experiences. Tetsuya aimed to shift those to one purpose that would be the door leading to the queen. He would use this rune on the ground and create a new pathway to the underground that would teleport him to the queen.

By then, he would take her out and prepare for whatever the future had prepared for both him and the fairies.

This thought could be born only within the game master's mind! He had flexible rune, bountiful knowledge from the demon bloodline and demons certainly were higher race than fairies.

Thus, he believed he could do it if he focused hard enough.

The days passed in silence. It even felt like Tetsuya never slept with how often the fairies saw him sitting cross-legged. Their gazes hovered on him for around ten seconds, then all of them went to work hard as well.

A few days later, Tetsuya opened his eyes.

"Have you achieved this?" Milady Yuhi's voice greeted him first. She held a towel and used it frequently on him. The truth was that Tetsuya had spent the whole days in this position, so his bones cracked as he did even the smallest movement.

Tetsuya smiled, "I think it's done." He also looked over his body and clothes. There was literally no sweat and he exuded fresh and comfy fragrance. His hair was also neatly combed and the game master looked like he had just a small enlightenment.

"That's a good woman!" Ashley nodded, knowing that Milady Yuhi would take care of Tetsuya. She then looked forward to Tetsuya's modification.

Out of the purple cube, the green rune with silver hue popped out. The rune's image was like two wings which was appropriate as fairies wings were eye-catching and mesmerizing.

Tetsuya looked over the floating rune, then decided to call Mayu. A few minutes later, the fairy advisor appeared before him. Her appearance was kinda messy, but she rushed here hastily, so no one commented on it.

She asked, "Are you done, Tetsuya?" Whatever he had been doing, Mayu believed in the game master. She herself was so hopeless that she could only support him wholeheartedly, like a maid of the prince charming!

Tetsuya nodded, "I have a way to meet the queen, but I was thinking about the place to open the door. Do you think we should do it here?"

"It's fine here." Mayu nodded and looked towards the rune that looked like hers, but had a different aura. It was the different purpose written within it!

Tetsuya pushed this rune to the ground, then his finger pressed harder on it. It disappeared in the soil, then the green particles began to flash from within. They pervaded the whole ground below them, then the ground seemed to shake; as if the powerful worm appeared within it.

The green particles calmed down, so the summoned purpose was already deep below, going straight to the queen's location.

Tetsuya looked at the ground where the doors began to form, "If devils find about it, then we will be another criminals that invited those scum here," Tetsuya glanced at Milady Yuhi. She didn't seem to care much.

She supported this idea, so albeit she would feel bad if devils came out of it, she would still support Tetsuya and help him fix this in the future.

Mayu was the same. She believed that the queen would fix a lot of their current problems and support the prince charming!

Soon, the doors spread and revealed the stairs that led straight to the underground!

The rune shouldn't notify the queen or the devils yet, "We have to go. If the queen moves somewhere, then we will face another problem." Tetsuya said and hopped in. Followed by Milady Yuhi and Mayu, all of them disappeared in the pitch dark tunnel.

The doors closed and then the forest supported them by hiding them from the rest of the world.

"It's a long tunnel," Milady Yuhi commented while holding Tetsuya's sleeve. It was the whole tunnel to the underground, so of course it would be long, but she only spoke after six hours passed.

Tetsuya himself felt like complaining even earlier.

"You should've made an elevator." Ashley shrugged, "Weren't you the one who told me about the technologies from your world? Now, you forgot about them in such a situation! Haha." She laughed, but that was what Tetsuya needed. He was already getting annoyed by this situation and his women outside were the same.

So Ashley's words and different attitude helped him.

"There we are…" The earth wall was here.

It marked their journey's end and upon touching it, Tetsuya felt hot ground as if lava was laying on it from the other side.

It was the underground, the home of devils and other shitty races!
