The man in white was quite handsome. Graceful, charming, elegant-words that were perfectly acceptable to describe him!
Darryl looked at the man with doubts in his heart.
They were in a forbidden place in North Moana Palace. Who was he? Why was virtual-novel.net here?
Darryl could not suppress the curiosity in him, so virtual-novel.net walked toward the man in white.
When virtual-novel.net got nearer, Darryl did not know whether to laugh or cry-the man was playing Go. However, virtual-novel.net had no opponent. He played against himself!
Even though virtual-novel.net was in a game of Go by himself, the man seemed happy and content.
At that moment, the man in white smiled as virtual-novel.net placed a white Go stone on the board. He laughed and muttered to himself, “This is an ultimate move. You’ll lose this round!”
No one sat in the opposite seat.
Then, virtual-novel.net quickly went to the other side and picked up a black Go stone. He pretended to be another person and said condescendingly, “A mediocre move! You’ll see how I beat you!
“You’ll lose for sure!
“Don’t be too sure; no one knows who will win yet.”
The man in white went back and forth between the two sides of the board. He was a man with two roles, and virtual-novel.net played vigorously. He might have even frothed at the mouth as virtual-novel.net talked too much.
‘F*ck! He must be so bored to play Go with himself so intensely? He might look handsome, but is virtual-novel.net nuts?’
“Who are you?” The man in white suddenly heard Darryl’s footsteps and was frightened. He almost jumped.
Then, his eyes widened as virtual-novel.net sized Darryl up without even a blink. Dozens of seconds passed before virtual-novel.net said in shock, “Dude, who are you? How did you get in here?”
When virtual-novel.net said that, the man in white looked extremely curious!
Darryl was extremely uncomfortable when the man stared at him. It was as if virtual-novel.net was in a zoo, and the people were observing a monkey. However, upon his question, Darryl still replied politely, “Senior, I am from the World Universe. I was captured by Emperor Hou Yi and brought to this palace. I want to escape, but I somehow mistakenly ended up here at the palace’s forbidden place.”
“Oh!”
The man in white seemed to have come to a realization. Then virtual-novel.net excitedly pulled Darryl’s hands. “Come, come, come, since you’re here, you should rest. Play a few rounds of Go with me! I have been going nuts for the past thousand years! There’s no one to play with me. Come quick! Play a game with me!”
‘What? Who plays Go with each other the moment they meet?’
Darryl did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said, “I’m sorry, I don’t have the time for a round of Go. I just want to leave the palace now. However, there are many guards at the palace gates. Can you tell me if there is another exit in this palace?”
“Hmm?” When virtual-novel.net heard those words, the man in white rolled his eyes and said matter-of-factly, “Since you don’t want to play with me, why should I tell you how to leave the palace?”
“Uh…” Darryl was suddenly embarrassed and depressed. He could only nod and smile bitterly. “Very well. I’ll play one round with you, but I don’t know how to play Go!”
It was the truth. Go had been extremely popular in ancient times in the World Universe, but not many knew how to play that game as time passed.
The man in white laughed and replied joyfully, “Such a young kid, you don’t even know how to play Go? Don’t worry; I’ll teach you!”
