The Game Kings の小説・ストーリー

No matter what age or gender can't be spared in the least. Even those who can't protest were caged like animals just so the dominion could use them as they please. What a typical 'conqueror' gameplay. He played this sort of games at times but since he felt this was something that he couldn't handle, he quitted. However, the knowledge and experience of playing such games led him to know some of the important points. One, the big nations always have some sort of feud. Of course, they'd fight for power and influence.

If you felt it, you felt it. “The game’s called Kent,” Naia started as soon as they’re all settled down in the locker room of the Bowling Alley. She continued to explain how the game works. Played in pairs, the goal was to get four of a kind cards (for example: four kings, four sevens, four aces etc.), signal whoever your partner was about it without getting caught, and have them shout ‘Kent!’ “So, partners. Do you want to partner with me, Jared?” “Not really,” he replied shortly.

Soon, it was my turn to present. "Good morning, everyone. It's an honor to be here today at the Ashenford Design Competition organized by the government. I'd like to start by showing you the 3D model our team has put together." I gave a nod to the two team members who were with me on stage. One of them, Logan, clicked the remote, and the screen came to life with my design—a black and white, simple… ball? Inside it were images of Ashenford, but what was this supposed to be?

Luna wants to play games, then I play along, and I play to win. “Get ready, Elodie… the game has begun and only one of us shall reign supreme.”

The night had fallen softly over the hotel, the kind of quiet that only happens when everyone’s gathered, and the chatters and noise from all the activities going on. The employees were gathered in the lounge area, the low glow of the lights casting a warm ambiance. The air was filled with laughter, teasing, and the occasional clink of glasses. Games had begun, a few rounds of truth or dare, charades, and finally, the card game that everyone was really waiting for: Kings.

I walked into the hotel we were all staying at for the Alpha Conference. Around us, there were Alphas, Betas and the occasional Gamma talking amongst each other. The hotel this time around was far fancier than the one we had previously. It was the one time every Alpha showed up in one place, no matter where they were from. Otherwise, the Alpha King would send out his own knights to “check-up” on your pack.

the king said as he rose to his feet, "because no one can overcome or defeat Master Kai, and I do not want to see people lose against him any longer." "Wait a minute, Father. I did not invite you to come see them play, but since you have already arrived, would not it be unjust to leave in the middle of the game?" The princess continued with a frown. "Why can't you stay and observe till the end when there are only two men left to play the game?" The princess wished to put a halt to his father's actions. "All right, I will stick around." King Azar ascended to seat again. "Say what you were saying, Dillion," Dillion was the recipient of the Duke's address.

"If anyone steps into the perimeter, shoot to kill." The tech operators in the room went completely silent. They looked at each other. Their fingers froze over the keyboards for a split second before returning to work. They could feel the energy radiating from me. It was not anger. It was the unhinged focus of a predator whose nest had been stripped bare. I had no limits left. Aris lowered his voice. "The Kings' management has called twice. The league is demanding a statement about what happened during Game Seven." "Let them demand."

They stared at each other in silence until Kane broke it. "Let's play a game." King's lips parted for a bit when he saw Kane playfully smirk. "Never have I ever." "Can I say no?" "Come on, it's a harmless game, King. I just want to know you more. Like you said, let's make the most of this month." He really wanted to say no because he had a feeling Kane was up to something again. "One condition." Kane's eyebrow furrowed. "Yeah?"
