The Game Rune System

[Vampire Underground Map.]

[Welcome to The Moba Game! Beat your opponents, make your way to the End Orb and win the game!]

The rules of the moba game appeared before the vampire king.

He was a newbie to this whole game mode so he read rules carefully before embarking onto the map to find Tetsuya.

"This is supposed to be a five versus five battle, but he altered the rules?" Vampire King whispered to himself after seeing the new message.

[One versus One Moba Game Duel!]

Tetsuya planned things differently, but plans often change directions! He didn't expect the vampire king to invite him like that, so the plan changed on its own.

However, it wasn't the only thing that has changed.

[The End Orb changes into Blood End Orb.]

Both players got Blood End Orb as their main objective.

While Tetsuya had yet to read about it as it was the game rune system's doing, the vampire king opened his eyes wide and turned around!

The Blood End Orb was one of the unique blood artifacts that his race had been developing and preparing for the war.

It was snatched by someone other than a vampire and used for the game!

He couldn't help, but feel cold sweat running down his spine. The already pale man paled a little, then turned around with narrowed eyes.

Those eyes aimed to enslave Tetsuya and make him answer all his questions.

On the opposite side of the underground city, Evelyn stood up and glanced at the Blood End Orb.

Since her eyes could see it, it meant that she was also the participant of the moba game. Her opponent was the queen and she was about to meet her.

But seeing this Blood End Orb which was like a blood demon standing on her side, Evelyn felt an indescribable desire to possess it wholly.

She wanted strength and to learn more about her race, so this was a given feeling.

The lady inhaled slowly, then stomped forward to meet the queen..

"This will be a quick game," Tetsuya said after stepping onto the lane.

His opponent was already here, his eyes turning from minions to Tetsuya! The vampire king was clever and followed the guidelines closely.

He didn't dare to anger the minions and get their aggro, but waited for their HP to take a loss and then one shot them with his blood skills.

The king answered Tetsuya's words, "It's up to you whether it will be a quick game or not. But I have to ask you, what's your purpose?"

"My purpose?" Tetsuya smiled, "I want everyone to play my games. That's it," He answered genuinely and the vampire king somewhat understood.

Tetsuya should be getting some benefits from using these games and even now he had a blood artifact on his side!

This was a powerful power that could change tides of the battlefield!

Vampire King decided to take things slowly with Tetsuya. He played the game following the basics, but Tetsuya's sword found a lot of openings through minions!

'Even though he is not controlling those, he knows their pattern and can wound me without alerting those minions…' Vampire King thought inwardly, then used one of skills on the minions!

A blood vein escaped his hand, then planted itself on the enemy minion, then his HP began to regenerate.

Another hand utilized another skill that made his auto attacks an AoE one. Just by swinging this hand, the vampire king could summon a tide that would be a sharp claw going forward! He had utmost control over it and his creativity was the only limit.

Other than mana costs of course!

However, the minions weren't always on the stage!

[You have leveled up!]

[You have unlocked your ultimate ability!]

[You have used Royal King Darkness!]

Ren immediately used his ultimate skill! There weren't more minions and he already wanted to show off his darkness control that topped everyone from his race!

Though he couldn't stop it from spreading and influencing the world, Ren could use it well in the battles!

So The Vampire King instantly pounced at the swordsman with his wings spread!

"Show me what you got, human!" He let out bright light from his red eyes, then used some kind of passive skill that increased his speed.

Adding the speed from Royal Darkness and its teleportation ability, The Vampire King trapped Tetsuya in one place!

The swordsman just raised his sword, unleashed the sword and heavy aura around his body then fend off all attacks with perfect precision!

His eyes then went up to the vampire king, "The Game Master's Room!"

[You have used your ultimate, The Game Master's Room!]

The game master had been always changing ever since he began to experience the new things and wholeheartedly accepted the world's differences!

His ultimate skill greatly changed and became the domain where Tetsuya could take out three runes to perfection!

The first rune was from Milady Yuhi's Calm River. His sword utilized this rune to the perfection even without the ultimate skill, but Tetsuya just couldn't give up on this rune anyway.

The second rune he used was actually the rune to make minions. But this rune would create soldiers out of anything, so Tetsuya went for his opponent's darkness and summoned shadow soldiers for his use!

The third one was actually the vampire rune that allowed Tetsuya's sword to get a powerful bloodsucking attribute that stole HP from his enemies!

In this form, Tetsuya looked like royalty and the heated battle between the vampire king and him began!

"Of course you would get benefits! This rune… I know this rune very well!" Vampire King shouted after exchanging a few slashes with Tetsuya. He roared, "If I win this, you will work for my race!"

"Fine. If I win, you will go with my plan for your race," Tetsuya responded and the vampire king smiled wickedly! He was ready to even go against this game's boundaries to get Tetsuya's power!

While the two men fought in fervent battle, the two ladies had a more noble-like exchange. Their long nails always clashed with each other and no wound could be seen on their bodies.

Instead, the queen and Evelyn distanced after each successful strike.

What was the successful strike?

The one that cut down at least one nail…

"It's my another win, Evelyn," The queen laughed wryly, then looked at Evelyn who couldn't accept this difference…

But the queen was really worthy of this title so she just kept her thoughts to herself and used one of her skills to heal herself.

This ended up with nail regrowing until it could be used in the battle, "Yes, I am amazed and honored to have such spar with you, The Queen."

"Keep going. We have a lot of time to spar and talk," After the beautiful smile widened on her face, the queen rushed with her royal darkness and the ladies began another noble-like spar.

They fought until the loud bangs reached them from another game.

This was unheard of, even to Evelyn who had fair share in the moba games. She stopped fighting and turned her face to the direction of those sounds.

The queen also stopped and glanced to the side, "These two must be really going all out… I wonder what will be the outcome…"

"The Queen… If the king wins, I would like to advise you to convince His Majesty to not kill Narashi," Evelyn spoke genuinely, her interest was mainly for the vampire race.

Yukia had been using this spar to see through Evelyn and she found out that this lady wanted the best for herself and her race.

These two desires were equal.

"I feel like they will reach agreement without us meddling, but just in case I will speak favorably in Tetsuya's case," Yukia replied.

But her words caused some confusion to Evelyn's eyes. She asked, "Tetsuya?"

"Oh, you didn't know? This man has a seal within his body, but this seal no longer can keep up with his progress, so it will soon break. I think he will break this by going all out against Ren." The queen smiled.

She then continued, "His looks were sealed and I wonder how his real appearance looks since someone bothered to seal him like that… Let's try and peek, Evelyn,"

Since Evelyn had been honest during the spar and allowed Yukia to read her easily, the queen answered and shared everything she knew.

The two ladies soon came closer to the origin of the loud sounds.

They extended their hands and eventually arrived in the one versus one map where Tetsuya and the vampire king fought against each other.

The loud shout immediately greeted them! "It's the end, the vampire king!" It was Tetsuya! He raised his sword high, his shadow minions holding the vampire king as tightly as possible.

He used his swordsmanship and Calm River rune to increase their weight, so they were a tremendous burden to the vampire king's life.

His sword also got heavier and like a storming river, it began to descend onto the vampire king whose wings barely could flap!

Even if those flapped, he couldn't raise his body nor hands! There were also a lot of cuts on the shadow wings, so the loss was just a natural occurrence!

Tetsuya's sword tore through the vampire king, then he felt something cracking inside him!

The seal that had been disturbing him for all this time shattered with this very slash as he went all out!

An immediate handsome beast appeared on the battlefield the moment the vampire king disappeared.

Both the queen and Evelyn raised their hands to cover their lips.

Both of them had a blush while looking at sweaty Tetsuya who just wiped his forehead.

He soon turned his eyes at them, but due to his normal looks, those were even more deadly.

He instantly charmed these two even without using any words, "I should've expected the queen to be strong enough to enter the one versus one map. I am impressed."

"No… That's not it… It was you who were too strong for the map to withstand…" The queen whispered like an embarrassed virgin even though she was a married woman who already knew a lot of arousing positions.

"Oh, thank you," Tetsuya smiled, his smile causing the ladies' hearts to pound louder. He then went forward to face the blood artifact that should be an interesting opponent.

The king already respawned, but he was too bothered with his own thoughts to even notice Tetsuya.

The battle with the artifact lasted around five minutes as Tetsuya just waited for his ultimate ability to return.

He then got the reward!

[You have gotten Blood Artifact - Blood Devil Technique.]

And the battle with the vampire king brought up a lot of stats that Tetsuya could just add to his profile.

The queen also fought with Evelyn so he got a lot of these.

"Now, let me explain the vampire tournament," Tetsuya ended the games and appeared in the king's chamber! He instantly cut to the chase and the vampires listened attentively!

"Oh, by the way… Do you have any technique to seal my looks again? I still have to impress Yara Yu and it seems like this change works well," Tetsuya glanced at Evelyn and smiled, her blush turning redder just from this alone...
