My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 211

Word soon got around that Sirius was now in possession of a godly weapon from Scary Phoenix. Countless players in the game came and asked Sophia to sell it to them, but she turned them down coldly.

Beast popped up as well. He kept sending her private messages which read, ‘F*ck, Daddy. You just got a stroke of luck—my dad simply gave his Hundred-Mile Streamers to you!’

Sirius233 replied haughtily, ‘Yeah, he lent it to me for a few days so that I can play with it.’

Sirius’s relationship with Beast had improved a little these days, and they often played together. Switching the conversation to another subject, Beast texted ingratiatingly, ‘Daddy, why don’t you lend the Hundred-Mile Streamers to me for a few days so that I can play with it as well?’

Beast texted back, ‘You’re my Daddy—even my dad has said so. How could you do this to me?!’

Sirius replied, ‘This weapon is my master’s!’

Sophia had wanted to key in the word ‘hubby,’ but the damn character input software automatically changed it to ‘master’ due to its predictive text feature. She quickly corrected herself, ‘It’s a typo—I didn’t mean to write “master.” It’s “Master!”’

In the end, the message was sent with the word ‘master’ still being used.

Beast replied, ‘You’re so disgusting. I know that he’s your master, so you don’t have to repeat that to me so many times. If you don’t want to lend the weapon to me, just forget that I even asked!’

Sirius was silent this time.

Meanwhile, Michael managed to get Stanley to leave after pleading with him in every way he could. It wasn’t until he logged into the game and gave Stanley another godly weapon that was second only to the Hundred-Mile Streamers that the latter’s anger was finally appeased.

Stanley thought his uncle did so out of his care for him. Much to his dismay, he logged into the game to discover that everyone in the team had received a godly weapon from Scary Phoenix as well.

Their team was probably considered first-class in Cethos, but it was unknown how well they would fare on the international level. Cethos’s esports teams could not be compared with overseas ones since the country started relatively late on esports in the first place. Therefore, they had to strengthen themselves as quickly as possible to increase their likelihood of winning the championship.

The four professional players who joined the team wanted to win the championship to achieve a higher status in the field, whereas Snow Fox and the other two students wanted to win the championship to receive the five extra credits. As for Scary Phoenix, however… nobody knew why he joined the team.

Michael stealthily opened the door to Nathan’s study and watched through the cracks as Sophia played the game with pleasure. The sight of her happiness filled him with immense gratification.

Michael left home on the seventh day of the New Year to act in a film overseas. Sophia felt lost after he left, but she had no time to dwell on her sense of loss since the first round of selection trials was coming soon. Therefore, she began training herself night and day.

How embarrassing it would be if her team couldn’t even enter the selection trials!

Luckily, her team’s members were all expert players, so they passed the selection trials with their eyes closed and got themselves qualified to enter the championship without a hitch.

The new semester then started in the blink of an eye. Since Sophia had many courses in the second semester of her first year at university, she was as busy as a bee; whenever she had free time after her classes, Sophia either headed to a nearby Internet cafe or went home straight away to turn on her computer and play the online game.

Her team got through the preliminaries across all servers and entered the quarterfinals, the semifinals, then the finals until they finally made their way into the Cethosian division of the championship. After fighting their way up again, they narrowly won first place in that division to become one of the three teams representing their home country. They would compete against a few well-known teams from other countries in the Aseanos region since only the top three teams would be qualified to enter the global finals.

After winning the Cethosian finals of the championship, everyone in the team could finally get some rest.

Sophia also had her hands full these days since she had to take care of both her studies and her gaming endeavors; she even felt that she had lost quite some weight.

Going through all of this just for some extra credit! Sophia thought to herself.

Everyone else in the team had also worked hard for many days. After winning the Cethosian finals of the championship, Snow Fox—who was Stanley in real life—proposed having an offline gathering, but Sophia refused him without hesitation.
