However, she spotted a particularly evil comment from the public chat room.
‘Disgusting gay people. Just go home and let your top f*ck you! Don’t embarrass yourself here!’
F*ck! As expected, this comment infuriated a lot of people. Sophia took out Sirius’ sword and dashed forward without hesitation, but someone was still faster than her. At this moment, Sophia could only see a sword flashing before her, then the evil comment’s owner was lying in a pool of blood.
When Sophia sheathed Sirius’ sword, she was shocked to find that the man who suddenly showed up and had a shining golden aura around him was actually Scary Phoenix! Why did the Lord show up suddenly?
‘Hubby! Hubby!’ Call Me Taylor went to Sirius excitedly. ‘You’re awesome, Hubby!’
Sophia did not dare to speak a word as she felt weird with her ‘wife’ and ‘husband’ standing at each of her sides.
After a moment of silence, Dragon Fox sent an announcement to all servers. ‘Scary Phoenix has joined Dragon Fox.’
This news astounded the whole server and even the whole community of the game. Now that Scary Phoenix had joined Dragon Fox, who could possibly defeat them? No one could even hope to win now!
Sophia was shocked. When she was about to log out, Snow Fox informed her, ‘From tomorrow onward, be online everyday at 7 p.m. You aren’t allowed to be late unless you inform me in advance! Give me your contact number as soon as possible so that we can contact you through phone if there’s any emergency.’
After replying ‘okay’, Sophia hurriedly scrammed. She was scared to join the championship after seeing Scary Phoenix joining. However, she had no reason to quit now! This championship could be called the Olympics of the esports world! It was the world’s largest esports tournament!
On the next day, Sophia went to get herself a new phone and a new number. Then, she gave Snow Fox her new contact number. After a while, Stanley called and said fiercely, “I don’t care who you are in real life. Now that you’re a member of Dragon Fox, I’ve got countless ways to kill you if you dare to run away!”
Sophia regretted joining this championship, but she had no way to leave now. If she really ran away, Stanley would definitely not let her off. Since this guy has said about killing me, he must have the capability to do so. Even though he probably doesn’t mean this literally, it’ll still be awkward once he knows my real identity! Not daring to speak, she waited until Stanley hung up on her.
Among the eight team members, four of them were professional esports players and were online 24/7. Meanwhile, Sirius, Scary Phoenix and both team leaders were part time players. Hence, they could only show up daily after 7 p.m. Every day, Sophia logged into the game on time to train herself and communicate with the other team members, coming out with strategies and providing assistance. Hence, showing up at 7 p.m. and resting at 11 p.m. had been her routine for a long while.
During that period of time, she would either be in the gym or prepare for her courses for the next semester in daytime. At night, she would either go home or go to the cybercafe to play games. Luckily, Scary Phoenix did not frequently show up as his skills did not need further training anymore. However, he would still appear sometimes to provide guidance. In contrast, Beast always showed up and called Sirius ‘Daddy’ whenever he met Sophia’s character. This made everyone feel rather awkward.
As The Imperial did not have any cybercafe nearby, Sophia could only get to the cybercafe across two streets on her motorbike. She felt more comfortable to play games in a cybercafe. Recently, she heard that The Luxurious 16—a real estate that was an imitation of The Imperial—already had people moving in.
It was a new residential area built by the Harper Real Estates and was quite near to The Imperial. Despite being just a copycat real estate and not as valuable as the properties in The Imperial, a lot of wealthy families still bought properties there to be neighbors with those in The Imperial. This was because residents in The Imperial were not common people!
Whenever Sophia went out to play games, she needed to pass by the entrance to The Luxurious 16, so she would peek inside curiously. She was wondering who would stay here. When she passed by The Luxurious 16 on this day, she peeked inside again after being stopped by the traffic lights. Little did she know that she would run into someone whom she disliked.
