“That wasn’t my fault! He tried to hit me, and he’s the one who ran into the wall!”

The little boy didn’t argue. He just kept crying.

“How can you say that?”

Birch stepped in front of Iris and Emma, trying to shield them. Unfortunately, his gentle face wat exactly intimidating.

If anything, the boy’s father–with his bleached blond hair and fierce expression–looked far more threatening.

The blond man sneered. “And another thing–you expect me to believe this little girl beat my son? Give me a break. My son never loses at video games.”

Birch couldn’t hold back anymore.

“Your son’s still just a kid. What, did a professional esports player train him or something?”

The boy’s mother, who was holding her son, immediately cut in.

“How did you know? My husband used to be a professional esports player. He teaches our son all the time at home. You seriously think he’d lose to this little girl?”

Holding Emma in her arms, Iris heard Emma’s stomach quietly growl.

“Hungry?”

“A little…”

Iris had lost her patience. She wasn’t interested in wasting any more time arguing.

“A professional esports player?”

She glanced at the screen inside the gaming booth.

It was a first–person shooter.

“How about you and I play a match… professional?”

The blond man looked Iris up and down, clearly not taking her seriously.

“Sure. If you lose, you pay my son double. If I lose, I’ll make him apologize to you.”

The deal was so one–sided it was almost insulting.

Emma immediately protested, clenching her little fists.

“That only benefits you! If you lose, you have to buy dinner for all three of us–and we get to choose the 6

restaurant!”

The blond man laughed.

“Deal.”

His son wasn’t actually very good at games.

That was why he’d refused Emma’s earlier suggestion to have them play another match in front

everyone.

But if he was the one playing…

Birch quietly whispered to Iris,

“It’s okay, Miss Iris. Even if you lose, Alliance Secure Mission can reimburse the money.”

Iris handed Emma over to him.

It wasn’t about the money.

She could afford to pay..

But she wasn’t giving a single dollar to someone trying to scam them.

The blond man’s wife and son stepped aside to make room.

The little boy smirked.

“I told you my dad’s amazing! You just had to mess with me!”

“I didn’t mess with you! You’re the one who broke your promise!”

Iris and the blond man sat down on opposite ends of the couch.

Picking up the controller, he said smugly,

“Don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. You choose the game.”

“No need. We’ll play the same one they were playing.” Iris’s eyes settled on the shooter displayed on the

screen.

The blond man selected the game while continuing his lecture.

“Our team never had women. Know why? Becausé women are naturally worse than men at games like this.”

“I’ve got to admire your confidence. You’re not even a pro, yet you’re challenging me in a game that depends on mechanics and positioning.”

Tell you what. You can still back out. Pay the money, make the little girl apologize, and you won’t

embarrass yourself too badly.”

Ignoring him completely, Iris selected her character.

The man burst into laughter.

“You even picked the weakest female character? Have you ever played this game before? I’ll go on you. Let’s do Score Mode instead of Versus.”

Iris looked at him. “Are you done choosing?”

The blond man finally selected his character, but his mouth never stopped.

He kept rambling about how women couldn’t play games and how he was a professional.

As the loading bar neared completion, he lazily picked up his controller.

He hadn’t even planned to take the match seriously.

“Hmph. Now let me show you what professional sk-”

Bang!

The scoreboard on Iris’s side lit up.

The blond man froze.

Before he’d even reacted…

She had already scored the first point.

“Tch. Lucky shot.”

He dismissed it as a coincidence.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four rapid gunshots echoed through the room.

Iris’s score shot upward, climbing faster and faster.

“What the-”

“Are you cheating?!”

By the time he’d finished saying those words…

Iris had already earned two more points.

His expression changed.

Even at his best…

Now…

Emma broke free from Birch, who had been wiping her face with a wet wipe, and threw both hands into the air in celebration.

Across from them, the mother and son had turned green with embarrassment.

“One more! You just got lucky! This time we’re playing Versus Mode!”

Maybe the previous round had simply given Iris easier targets.
