章 6: 345/5
The black pieces which were under command of the unkempt gentleman had three pieces under attack. The Queen, Rook, and white-squared bishop while at the same time threatening checkmate. The commander of the white pieces which was the clean shaven gentleman face began to turn pale.
"I resign." The tidy gentleman says while tipping over his king.
"I believe that makes it sixty nine wins for me old friend."
"Don't forget about sixty nine losses you have as well!" The clean gentleman retorted.
(These two fellows at least played one hundred and thirty-eight games.)
"Excuse me but how many games have you two played?" Keres asked.
"Two hundred and seven" The two gentleman replied at the same time.
(Doesn't that mean they drew...) Keres mouth twitched at the funny coincidence.
"By the way my name is Keres this is my first time here. Is this a chess bar?." Keres stretched out his hand to the two men. They took his hand and shook it while introducing themselves.
"Mikhail" The unkempt gentleman said.
"Robert" The other gentleman replied.
Hearing his question both of them smiled and chuckled.
"No we just play here although your idea ain't too bad." Mikhail answered while scratching his chin with his right hand. Keres noticed that Mikhail hand was deformed and only had three fingers.
"This is the Hostess of Fertility the best pub in Orario!" Mikhail continued while pulling out a cigar and lighting it with his finger.
(This guys is a mage!)
"Do you know how to play chess Keres?" Robert interjected and looked at Keres with anticipation.
"Yes I do. Do you want to play a game right now?" Keres answered.
"That's great to hear but sadly I'll have to take you up on the offer at a later time. How does next month sound on the twelfth? We'll meet here." Robert replied while standing and began to disappear little by little rapidly.
"Tsk. Probably in a hurry to analyze the game he just lost." Mikhail said while chuckling.
"I guess I'll be heading on my way as well Keres. I'll see you next month if anything take care." Mikhail waved while walking away and smoking.
After the two men left Keres took one of the seats at the table they were using and began to stare at the tower.
(I'm in the world of DanMachi! F*ck I barely remember anything about this world. Let's see the gods and goddesses are based on the mythologies back on earth. The tower is above a dungeon that holds a dragon I think. The mc was Bell and the heroine was Ai. Did the main story already start or am I in the past or far future? Wait that means they are cat girls!)
When the last thought came to Keres a little smirk appeared on his face. Sadly he did not know how is smile looked a bit pervy. Nor did he notice the woman who walked out of the bar. She had short black hair and green eyes that have a bit of a dangerous glint in them.
"~Nyaa? What are you thinking about?"
Keres came out of his perverted thoughts and looked at the woman in front of him. He was surprised that what he was fantasizing about appeared before him.
"I was thinking about meeting cat girls" Keres replied honestly.
"~Nyaa Have you never met one before?" The woman asked while her eyes began to sparkle.
"No you are the first one I ever met"
"So what do you think ~Nyaa?"
"Honestly not impressed."
Hearing this the woman looked disappointed and began to pout.
"~Nyaa! What were you expecting then?
"Well I thought when I finally met someone like you. They would be a heaven shaking beauty."
The woman brows began to furrow in anger.
"Do you not think I"m beautiful ~Nyaa?"
Keres began to reminisce on all the years he lived and the beautiful women he met and saw.
"You are beautiful but you're level of beauty. Is something I have seen countless times over the years."
"~Nyaa? Countless beauties over the years? How old are you little boy?"
Hearing the woman point out his age. Keres was stunned out of his reminiscing as he forgot he was no longer an old man.
(F*ck! Me and my big mouth. What do i say? Hmmm. Should I guess my age or be honest?)
Seeing that Keres was silent the woman began to smile.
"Fufufu. Cat got your tongue ~Nyaa?"
Keres smiled at the joke made at his expense.
"A little because you reminded me I don't know how old I am."
After a couple seconds of silence.
"Are you an orphan?" The woman asked with a sad tone.
(Technically I am since my parents died many years ago and I doubt that damn god gave me any parents in this world.)
"Yes." Keres answered with a very matter of fact expression.
"I'm guessing you never met Maria?"
"Who?" Keres tried to recall every character he knew from the book. But the name Maria did not ring a bell.
Hearing his answer the woman began to form tears in the corner of her eyes as she recalled her past.
"My name is Chloe. What's yours ~Nyaa?" The woman said with a smile.
(Chloe sounds familiar.)
"Keres"
"Where do you live Keres?"
(Sh!t. I can't say in the woods because that would mean someone raised me and that would mean I would at least know my age. Why does she look like she's about to cry? Do I look that miserable? Focus!)
"At the moment I'm currently homeless. But I plan to change that very soon." Keres hoped his answer would alleviate the worry Chloe seems to have for him.
"Oh? Would you mind telling me your plan?"
"Step 1: Go into the Dungeon. Step 2: Kill Monsters. Step 3: _________ Step 4: Profit!" Keres replied with a smile on his face.
"Going into the dungeon is dangerous especially if you go alone ~Nyaa. Have you ever thought of joining a familia to help you?"
"Not really as I don't know how to join any of them."
"Well which gods and goddesses are your favorite?"
(I don't my lore god dammit! Theres Hestia, Loki, Freya, Hephaestus, and that dude in the tower. I don't know if Hestia came down yet so I can't pick her. Loki's familia seems cool. If I recall correctly Freya was portrayed as an antagonist, so I should stay away from her. Hephaestus familia are the crafters of this world.)
"Uhhh. Loki and Hephaestus."
"Purrfect. Which familia do you want to apply to first?"
"I don't think they would like me bugging them so late."
"Do you have money for a room at an inn ~Nyaa?"
"No."
"Well you either sleep out in the streets for the night and then go apply. Or go apply now and maybe get a nice warm bed. What do you want to do ~Nyaa?"
