The King’s Game

Chapter 132

Edited by: grump

The reward for winning the game would be distributed to the youth. At this time, in the highest position above the entire world, there was a cold figure waiting quietly at the place closest to the throne.

With silver hair and golden eyes, this figure stood quietly beside the empty throne, and the pale golden eyes on the handsome face were slightly lowered. What was displayed was a kind of beauty without warmth, but still thrilling.

What was reflected in this pair of pale golden eyes was the throne. In fact, Noah was waiting for the youth who would appear in this seat and was also the original owner of this throne.

The cause and effect of all these things could be traced back to the very distant past. As for Gu Huai, who won the game, the latter was retrieving his lost memory. The old traces of the past were replayed in the youth’s mind like a movie.

There were different levels of worlds, but in the beginning of everything, no matter whether high or low, the worlds were all empty, and there were few planes in the world.

Even the existing world, which was barely formed with great difficulty, was not a complete world. It was extremely unstable and could collapse into its original chaotic state at any time.

The reason why such a phenomenon occurred was that these worlds lacked “rules”.

The youth who watched thousands of worlds from the highest palace had the idea of creating corresponding rules for these worlds for the first time as he watched many worlds form only to collapse.

Therefore, in these worlds, the first complete world was born.

The creation of a world was creation, and there was no difference in the creation of the second, third and fourth. Before he thought that the number of faceted worlds was enough, the daily task of youth in the supreme Palace was to create worlds.

The concept of time was very vague in the supreme palace where there was no rotation between day and night.

The passage of time was not obvious, but it could be clearly seen that the originally empty world gradually became very bright and beautiful, and worlds of different shapes grew actively, like thousands of stars dotting the darkness.

All the planes became lively. The young man was sitting in a rather cold seat. There was no one but him in this high hall. When watching these planes created by him, the young man’s eyes were serious and very gentle and soft.

The rules in different worlds were different. These rules belonged to the secondary rules. It could be called sub-rules or treaties. These “treaties” were the most important factors to maintain the world’s order and make the world grow well.

However, after a period of time, the youth discovered that he only created secondary rules in these planes, and the world formed by the rules could not be completely stable in development.

Although it was only a very low probability event, in the thousands of dimensions, there were indeed several worlds that had grown rather twisted and turned despite the existence of treaties.

“It’s not your fault.” He calmly said in a low voice, trying to sooth them.

Every ordinary creature in a world had self-consciousness, even the worlds’ sub-rules created by the youth.

They were equivalent to the world’s will of everyone in the world and they dominated the development of the world. These sub-rules created by the youth all liked to be close to the youth very much.

The instinctive love from a creation for its creator was quite natural. They strived to manage the world and maintain the world’s order because they wanted to make the youth happy and to let him see a more beautiful world, which was their gift to the youth.

The youth wondered why there had been a corresponding disorder, a disruptive phenomenon occasionally appearing in some worlds.

It was not enough to regulate the development of the worlds by treaty alone. One more…

According to the essence of all things, it was necessary to create a master rule, or supreme rule, applicable to all worlds, including the current palace. That was the conclusion reached by the youth after some reflection.

The creation of the main rules was much more difficult than that of the sub-rules. It was not an easy job. The youth spent considerable effort on this matter and finally succeeded in creating it.

However, when the creation was finally confirmed, inexplicably, the youth suddenly made a decision that was not in the plan.

Because what was created this time was the main rule, which could exist in the highest plane, when the youth looked at the palace that was somewhat empty and cold compared to other worlds, he had the idea that he may be able to give the rule a substantial form.

This idea had no purpose at the beginning. It could be said that it was very accidental and came into being suddenly under the influence of many subtle factors.

Deciding to do it, the young man was not a person who liked to hesitate, so he quickly set out to practice his ideas.

“Your name is Noah.”

After giving him a regular human form, the young man said this to the figure in front of him with a gentle voice.

The scene of his own birth was a very vivid memory for Noah. That was the first sound Noah heard. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the black-haired youth standing in front of him with beautiful eyes and a small smile.

His attention was attracted by the youth and he couldn’t move his eyes away from the sight. Noah instinctively looked at the youth in front of him. His eyes clearly reflected the figure of the youth. After a while, he nodded silently to the youth.

His name was Noah, and he had no doubt about the gentle voice he heard. Noah remembered the name given to him by the youth.

“I am Gu Huai. You can call me… Ah Huai.” Although he had no experience of getting along with people face to face, Gu Huai also knew that exchanging names was an important and necessary thing.

Ah Huai. Noah did not pronounce the name after him. The supreme rule that had just been born and given shape was still silently staring at the dark-haired youth who spoke to him with his pale golden eyes. His cold and handsome face was expressionless, but he nodded to the young man again.

“Be good.” Gu Huai unconsciously used the word, the youth simply put his hand on the head of the cold figure.

He was really good and nodded obediently. At the beginning of his birth, his ignorant state made the other behave like a baby just breaking out its shell. Considering this situation, Gu Huai would unconsciously use a soft tone when talking to the other.

Although from the morphological point of view, the cold figure had a completely adult male appearance.

When the syllables fell, Gu Huai raised his hand to the other’s head and tried to withdraw it, but there was an accident in the process.

When the young man touched his head, he narrowed his pale golden eyes slightly. When the feeling of being touched was gone, Noah caught the hand of the youth as he wanted to withdraw it.

His left hand was caught just halfway back. Gu Huai paused a little at this moment.

The other’s grip on his hand was not very strong. Gu Huai wanted to pull it out, but he saw his reflection in the eyes of the pale golden pupils near him, and he couldn’t help but dismiss the thought.

It was nothing if one hand was caught, so on second thought, Gu Huai let the person watching him continue to hold his left hand.

“This is the highest level. For the time being, there are only two of us in this place. I’ll show you the environment.”

The young man led the way, Noah, who had caught the young man’s left hand, followed the young man closely, with the youth’s back reflected in his eyes.

Although it was the highest world, this plane was not as colorful as other worlds. Many complete worlds were brightly colored scrolls, but the color of the highest world that only existed as an isolated temple was very monotonous.

This hall was very large. The tall white stone pillars supported this hall with a sacred atmosphere. The walls were engraved with some complicated and special patterns.

This was not to say that the temple was not beautiful, but that the color was monotonous only compared to other hot and noisy worlds. This world was very lonely, but the only two people living in this temple did not feel this way.

Like a mother hen who led its chick, the young man led the way and Noah who followed him familiarized himself with the environment of this high temple.

He was willing to let the “rule” who was like an ignorant baby just breaking its shell adapt to the high-level environment first, and Gu Huai finally took him back to the center of the hall, where he usually observed the worlds of each level.

Instead of sitting in the cold seat, the youth lifted his free right hand at this moment. Images of thousands of worlds appeared in front of them, like a magnificent and beautiful painting.

“Isn’t it beautiful?” Gu Huai drew the cold figure that had been obediently following him closer and let the other stand beside him, then he said this sentence with slightly bent eyes.

Beautiful… It was ignorant, but Noah, as the supreme rule of all worlds, was omniscient and omnipotent. He knew what the word “beautiful” meant.

This was a word to express praise. It was used to praise the beauty of a thing.

“Mmm.” There was a cool feeling in his voice. Noah’s tone was very light and his beautiful flawless face was still expressionless. His eyes were only slightly looking at the worlds, and soon his attention shifted back to the youth.

Beautiful, the youth was very beautiful…

Noah’s first perception of something “beautiful” did not come from these magnificent and dazzling worlds, but from the dark-haired youth beside him, which made Noah blink his pale golden eyes subconsciously.

He liked to watch the youth and he couldn’t say why. Noah just wanted to do it.

Pursuing with sight and following with the youth’s pace was enough for Noah.

He instinctively pursued and followed, while the young man who always walked alone in front of him gradually got used to having a man running behind him and circling around him like a chick with a complex, and he didn’t know when the young man would take the initiative to stretch out his hand to catch the chick who liked to follow him while walking.

It was he who created the other and gave the other a form according to his own wishes. Gu Huai believed that he had the responsibility to guide Noah.

“Like this, they will listen to you.” Hands-on teaching, Gu Huai was teaching Noah how to communicate with other sub-rules of the world.

While obeying the youth who created them, they loved and wanted to be close to the other, while Noah, as the supreme rule, was completely obeyed by the sub-rule of the myriad worlds, namely the world’s will.

Noah was born to master the matters taught by the youth, but he wasn’t familiar with it yet. However, in the face of the youth’s teaching, Noah still listened quietly with his eyes slightly lowered, showing the appearance of a good child listening attentively.

“Mmm.” He answered expressionlessly and slightly tilted his head at this time, like he was waiting for something.

He didn’t let Noah wait for a long time. The young man who heard the other side’s low response was very used to raising his hand to touch the other side’s soft silver hair, which meant praise.

The world wills of the small worlds were unavoidably agitated at this time. On one hand, they were envious, but on the other hand, happy.

They were sub-rules, and even if they could have a substantial form like Noah, they could not enter the highest palace. The only way for them to get close to the youth was to connect with the youth’s consciousness. Therefore, they naturally envied Noah, who could actually be touched and rewarded by the youth.

But the other could accompany the youth in the highest hall, which also made these world wills happy.

The youth was too lonely. Perhaps the youth had never had this kind of sensation, but these world wills all had this idea.

A person who had not experienced warmth would not know anything about cold. Similarly, a young person who had always lived alone in the highest palace would not know loneliness until he felt the feeling of being accompanied.

However, Noah was now fluttering around the youth all day like a chick, giving him no chance to feel lonely.

“What did they tell you?” Gu Huai was unavoidably a little curious.

From another point of view, this also meant that the other sub-rules had become familiar with Noah, which was undoubtedly a good thing in Gu Huai’s eyes.

When asked by the youth, the supreme rule moved his fingertip imperceptibly and responded with a cool but very low and pleasant voice: “They are teaching me how to manage the plane.”

The sentence he was now saying was called “lies”. It was the first time he has lied since he was born, but Noah did not want to deceive the youth.

These world wills were teaching him how to take care of the youth, and they also said that he should accompany the youth more so that the youth would not feel lonely. Noah made note of all the words carefully.

The relationship between chasing and being chased, guiding and being guided was the same at the beginning.

When the youth observed a world, he often not only observed its overall development, but also deeply observed the creatures nurtured in the world, and was full of interest in these creatures and their various forms.

And one day, the situation was a little bit special.

The young man watched the creatures in the selected world, and from time to time turned his head to look at the cold figure beside him. After repeating this behavior several times, the young man coughed in a low voice and pressed down the corners of his mouth unconsciously.

In the image, there were a lot of cubs. They looked round. Their fur looked very plush and easy to touch. The point was that these cubs obediently followed behind the slightly larger creature in front, which led Gu Huai to compare these cubs with the supreme rule beside him.

Of course there was no similarity in appearance, but when it came to this kind of behavior of following where he went, the two were almost identical.

Noticing the curve of the youth’s lips, Noah stared at his lips for a moment without blinking.

Whenever the young man bent his eyebrows and smiled like this, Noah thought it would be good for him to watch this person forever.

The youth was very beautiful…

When he smiled, it was like a warm fire in the cold darkness, burning away all the dull darkness. This warm color was more beautiful than anything else, and Noah could always hear the sound of his heartbeat.

All the round cubs in the image were chirping. This made the young man suddenly think of something strange. After he covered up his smile with a low cough, he said half jokingly to the cold figure beside him, “I’ll give you a nickname: Chu Chu.”

Just saying so, Gu Huai, of course, was not really going to force the other to take the nickname Although he did think that the nickname “Chu Chu” sounded very lovely, the name was not very consistent with the other’s cold image…

Gu Huai was still thinking at this moment, but the cold figure in front of him had already nodded, which made Gu Huai pause slightly.

At this time, Noah slightly lowered his eyes. He lowered his head and pecked the lips of the youth before the youth responded, “Chirp.”

Feeling the soft touch on his lips, Gu Huai was really completely shocked at this moment.

Because of the close distance, the pale golden eyes of Noah clearly reflected the figure of the youth.

He watched the youth as if watching his own destiny.
