Chapter 324: Chess
After leaving the carriage, Alex entered the new world.
They all had finally arrived in the Green Kingdom’s capital, Roslinne. The strongest, one hundred and fifty level demi-humans dwelled in this land. They were known as Black Mantis, Red Hornets, White Spiders, and Rock Ants.
They had their lands in the vast capital, resulting in this place swathing in a magical charm.
If Alex and his family went through Roslinne’s entire content, sightseeing every part of this beautiful place, they would be able to see everything this land had to offer.
But for now, they were in a part of the capital belonging to the White Spiders. At first glance, this land had quite unique architecture as houses were made out of white web, spread around the giant trees’ feet.
“White Spiders are pretty similar to us,” Yumia said, hovering her beautiful green eyes on Alex’s curious face, “Their houses go higher with their status. It can be wealth, strength, or another influence.
If you have at least one of them in abundance, you can form a house at the giant tree’s spire. In this way, you can see the status of every White Spider,” The Queen explained.
And as Alex and others looked ahead, they could see a few houses slightly above the others. They also didn’t waste area, having some space furnished below their dwelling.
Remia added for she had been in this place before, “The capital is split into four quarters, and every land is governed by the strongest demi-human tribe.
But there’s a part, The Wilderness, in the middle, where everyone can freely meet and establish their businesses. It’s up to them whether they can keep their businesses intact and have their goods protected..
No punishment will be given for committing crimes here.”
To Remia’s words, Yumia added, “Such unlawful region has been made recently, for we can no longer only focus on ourselves. We used to have many dangerous tournaments for lands, and the four strongest clans weren’t the exception.
They allowed the creation of such a region to keep their people in shape.”
Sara smiled, sharing her thoughts, “Beasts should have something similar, right?”
The beasts were more bloodthirsty and known for being simpletons. They only had one family that really had brains while others held themselves back, feigning some control and intelligence.
Yumia agreed with the dullahan momma, saying she had heard of many unlawful zones created in the players’ era.
But as everything kept changing rapidly after the players’ arrival, the queen believed those zones were no longer available and that the beasts were sharpening their weapons for a clash with The Green Kingdom’s forces.
Alex listened attentively, not butting into a talk between gorgeous and experienced mommas.
He silently asked Remia a few questions, and his lady replied with a bright smile.
Unfortunately, no one was here for sightseeing or fun. The forest fairies’ team headed straight to the white palace in the middle of the White Spider’s land.

“I knew that something was off, but I didn’t expect to see four beast kings in your palace, Nestor,” Yumia fixed her eyes on the White Spider King, glaring at him with unconcealable indignation.
She suspected the sudden call immediately after receiving it. But she didn’t expect to see the four best kings from the Beast Kingdom sitting by the table with their counterparts from the Green Kingdom.
It was a surreal feeling, considering the beasts had already assaulted a few other demi-human races from the Green Alliance.
In his humanoid form, Nestor lifted his six eyes to stare deeply at the forest fairies’ queen. He couldn’t see through her stats, and even if he could, her eyes compelled him to gaze at her seriously.
“The beasts have offered an absurd deal,” he said, furtively glancing at them with one of his six eyes, “They want to hold a chess match between the leaders and the young prodigies. We will decide whether we should alliance ourselves with the antagonists or humans this way.”
That threw everyone off, including Alex and his wives. Yumia couldn’t believe her ears, turning her little head to the four beast kings.
“Are you serious?!” Yumia raised her voice, her tone sharp. She would never bet the lives of her people on a chess game!
Yes, it was the game that helped demi-humans significantly in the past. It used to be a part of every noble’s teachings, and many small strifes had been solved through it. However, the antagonists and their plans involved every life!
This was absurd!
After Yumia’s voice subsided, a lady from the beast’s side drew her attention by calling out the queen’s name, “Yumia. Are you perhaps scared? We have waited for you, knowing that you are good at chess.
Your descendants have inherited your love for chess, too. They are worthy opponents for us, the beasts,” she smiled at Remia and her other siblings.
‘She actually wants to play with us?’ Yumia inwardly spoke, locking her eyes on a woman with unique charm. She had nine fluffy tails, long ears, a cute nose, and voluptuous curves enhancing her demi-human features.
Anais Foxtail.
She was one hundred and fifty level existence, yet her strength was in her eyes, for those shone with intelligence. She was the smartest beast lady, guiding more than her tribe, for her voice weighed in the Beast Kingdom.
Yumia was surprised to see her actually pushing for chess matches.
“No one is scared,” Yumia replied, skimming her eyes through other beast kings. They were stupid, so she didn’t believe those would fare well against their counterparts from the Green Kingdom.
The queen didn’t know about their descendants, but she was confident about hers.
Anais nodded, appreciating Yumia’s presence, “We will face each other, then. Let’s have fun, everyone.”
“Fun, you say…” Yumia’s eye twitched, for she wasn’t in a mood for fun. Perhaps, if she were one hundred and fifty-level existence, she would be able to have a similar room to the fox girl.
In the end, strength mattered the most.
“Why is a human there? Hmm…” One of the beast kings, a man with a long mane, titled his head, standing up. His eyes were locked on Alex before shifting to Schnee and Sara, “It’s easy to tell you apart because you fairies have those weird ears.
But these too… smell like humans and something else!” the king disappeared from the scene, appearing before Schnee and Sara at a pretty astonishing speed.
He leaned down, wanting to sniff them.
He couldn’t even bend his back, for a human’s hand landed on his face, grabbing his manly features with a powerful grip.
“Sniff your anus first,” Alex said before throwing the beast away. He used all his strength, for no man could approach his wives in such a manner, his heart pounding with indignation.
Because of that, the lion king flew across the hall, slamming the wall with his broad back… The web wall cracked, for he was tough. But the strength behind the throw mattered more, compelling everyone to stare at the young man.
ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ “Ah, darling…” Schnee whimpered as she bent her legs, her man’s words and action nearly bringing her down.
Sara stood straight, gazing at Alex’s back with eyes shimmering in love and pride. She would react similarly to Schnee should no one be around them, though. She reserved that for later, for her time with her beloved.
Remia and Yumia shared the same reaction, biting their lips as they could barely hold back their comments on Alex’s response. The queen wanted to tell Alex to keep going and not hold back, for the chess game would happen regardless of the lion king’s stance.
She could tell the fox lady wanted it, so she played with that desire to her advantage. But Alex then came forward, standing at the helm of everyone, including her.
The queen saw a reliable back she hadn’t seen in a while, her heart skipping a beat.
Remia wanted to voice some concern and explain that a man shouldn’t sniff someone else’s wives like that. But as Alex took a step forward, taking the matter into his own hands, Remia held back her voice like a good girl.
It was her beloved’s time. It was his duty, for another man wanted to touch his wives! Remia and other girls would react similarly if an unknown lady did the same to their husband.
“Who dared to insult and throw me like trash?!” the lion king howled, bringing himself onto his two feet.
Alex replied as he stepped forward a few more steps, “Me.”
