The Players!

The chessboard was now set up, but Mo Fan suddenly had a question.

If it was a game of chess, who was the Lord of Darkness going to play it with?

Was he going to play with himself? Play with (ahem!) his clone?

A dark figure soon appeared behind the enemy pieces. He had a cloak the size of a mountain draped over his shoulders. His half-transparent body was drifting in the wind.

Mo Fan could not see his face, but his glowing blue eyes were looking at the chessboard with excitement.

Is that the Lord of Darkness?

The chess pieces were in place. It was time for the players to take their seats.

Mo Fan did not feel any pressure from the figure. It was more like a phantom. Although he felt spooked, as if the figure could see right through him, he did not sense any hostility from it.
