The Author's POV

Chapter 93

"...hm? Hold up"

Just as Smallsnake was about to place his piece down, he frowned.

"Did you just say that a camera caught you taking off your mask?"

Lazily supporting my chin with my arm, I nodded.

"Yup"

Confused, Smallsnake tilted his head and frowned.

"...isn't that bad? I mean-"

Seeing Smallsnake's confusion, before he could continue, I cut him off

"Well that is if what they saw was my real face"

Coming to an understanding, Smallsnake's brows relaxed

"Ah...so you didn't reveal your face?"

Nodding my head, I pointed at the board. Urging for him to continue.

"Don't you remember the photos I sent you? The ones you used to create multiple facemasks for me?"

-Tak!

Moving one of the pieces, Smallsnake nodded his head.

"Yeah"

He did.

Although he didn't know who the people in the photos were, Smallsnake remembered receiving a text a couple of days ago regarding the creation of a couple of skin masks.

With current technology, creating such high detailed masks didn't take much, so he had it promptly made the next day.

Seeing that he understood, I lethargically said

"...well I was wearing two at that time."

-Tak!

With one of my eyes closed, I moved my bishop diagonally across the board.

"I see...and who's mask does the other one belong to?"

Hearing his question, I didn't answer immediatly. Instead, I answered with another question.

"Smallsnake, who do you thinks stands to gain the most from the conflict between Sword of light and Luxious?"

Getting answered back with a question, Smallsnake thought for a moment before hesitantly saying

"...errr, the ones who wins between them"

Shaking my head, I lightly smiled.

"Tut, tut, tut, not necessarily true..."

-Tak!

Moving one of his pieces, Smallsnake frowned.

"...then who?"

Smiling, I glanced at him and said

"Have you ever heard of the term, 'the mantis stalks the cicada unaware of the oriole behind?'"

Nodding his head, pausing and thinking for a moment, Smallsnake's eyes widened

"...you don't mean"

-Tak!

"Yup"

...

Luxious Headquarters, 80th floor.

Overlooking the city from the tainted windows of the highrise building, a tall muscular man interlocked his fingers behind his back.

A cold and indifferent aura exuded from his body. Briefly glancing towards the bottom of the building, towards the busy streets of Ashton city, the tall man coldly spoke
