LeisureHermit, despite his unlucky streak, was still a chess ace.
It took Anthea some serious brainpower to beat him the night before. It had been a while since she'd encountered such a fierce opponent.
So, without hesitation, Anthea accepted to add him as a gaming buddy, labeling him a 'Loser'.
Then she fired up her live stream.
Thanks to the popularity from the previous night, Anthea's channel exploded with over a hundred viewers the moment she went live.
Sarah, clutching her phone, exclaimed in surprise, "Ann, are you not going on camera?"
"Does a gamer need to show their face?" Anthea asked, raising an eyebrow.
Sarah looked somewhat disappointed. Anthea was such a looker, which was a shame not to capitalize on that.
The viewer count would've surely skyrocketed if she had been on camera.
It was then that Sarah noticed how basic Anthea's streaming setup was. She just had a webcam and a computer, not even a ring light or a sound card in sight.
Luckily, Anthea’s skin was as smooth as cream without a single flaw. Otherwise, the HD camera would be unforgiving.
‘Hey, I'm here!’
‘Are we playing chess again tonight?’
"Yep, that's the plan." replied Anthea.
‘What's your gaming tag? I wanna challenge you. If I lose, I'll give you more gifts! If not, reveal your face! You game?’
"When have I ever been scared?" Anthea shot back, giving out her gamer ID.
Before long, she received a game invite and clicked to accept the challenge.
Anthea casually said, "Giving you a head start, so no one says I play rough."
‘OMG, She’s so badass! Totally crushing on you!’
‘So cool!’
‘Don't need a head start. I'm professional and never pick on the girls.’
Anthea, cool as a cucumber, hit the start button, "Even if you're professional, I’m gonna beat you."
