Chapter 184 Do You Like Adorkable Underlings
Danny: ‘Ellimane invited me to join a game…’ When Danny sent the message, even his breathing turned uneven. He quickly accepted the invitation, fearing that he might miss out.
Seeing the message, KK thought that Danny was joking. He was about to reply when the same notification popped up on his game interface: ‘Ellimane invited you for a game.’
Instantly, KK went nuts, and he was way beyond excited as he texted Danny back. ‘Ellimane also invited me!’
With that, KK straightaway entered the game, and three characters soon appeared on the screen. They were Danny, KK, and Ellimane!
Seeing his idol, KK was the first to move forward. ‘Ellimane, I’m so happy to see you! I never thought that you would invite me for a game! Don’t worry. I’ll do my best not to drag you down.’
Elise was speechless at KK’s torrent of messages but responded to him, regardless. ‘Don’t be so nervous. It’s not our first time playing together.’
It was KK’s turn to be surprised. Danny also stared at the words on the screen in disbelief. He felt that he had missed something huge.
“Ellimane, have we played together before?” Danny couldn’t help but ask.
Elise found Danny’s behavior funny, but she didn’t hide the secret for long. “Come on, Danny Griffith. It’s me!”
Danny was startled as he read the six words. He was even surprised that he had linked Ellimane to Elise subconsciously. He stared at the screen in disbelief, his hands trembling as he asked, ‘Who… Who are you? How did you know my real name?’
‘Elise Sinclair!’ She didn’t bother to explain and merely replied to him with her name.
This time, Danny threw his phone away in shock, then he quickly got up and walked toward Elise’s room. He didn’t even bother knocking as he opened the door and walked in. The first thing he saw was Elise lazing on the couch. When she saw the intruder, she waved her phone at him. “What’s wrong? Let’s start the game!”
Danny hastily walked forward and snatched Elise’s phone. When he saw her player ID, his eyes grew as wide as saucers. “You… You… You’re actually Ellimane?!”
Elise grinned. “What, do I not look the part?”
Danny felt his legs give way, and he almost fell over. He started recalling snippets of his interactions with Elise concerning the game. Elise was supposedly a newbie when they last played together, but her skills far surpassed his, so it would make sense that she was already skilled at the game, but she had simply used a new account to play with him. Also, it was no wonder that she looked so calm when he ranted about Ellimane to her. He thought she wasn’t interested, but that was only because she was Ellimane herself.
Danny immediately fell to his knees. “Boss, I’m so glad I’m your underling.”
Seeing him act like that, Elise quickly said, “Come on, get up. I have nothing to give you, even if you do this.”
Danny stood up in glee. “Wait for me, boss. I’ll take my phone here so we can play together.”
With that, Danny ran out. As soon as the door closed, he jumped up and down in excitement, shouting, “Yes! Yes!”
Alexander was passing by when he saw Danny, so he asked, “What happened?”
Hastily, Danny gathered himself and feigned calmness. “Nothing, I just wanted to play games with Boss.”
