Her phone screen displayed a message from the team’s president, Michael Gabriel.
“Boss, there’s an emergency. Our team’s ADC just got his buttocks burned by hot water. It’s a severe burn. So for the time being, he can’t take part in the match…
“You’ll have to take part during the finals personally…” Michael explained.
Xyla Quest felt extremely terrible when she read the message.
She was going to be very busy during this period.
Previously, she didn’t have the energy to take care of work due to her pregnancy retching.
On top of that, she’d been taking care of Stanley Batton all this while. Honestly, too much work had accumulated for her.
If Xyla participated in Season 10’s finals, she’d have even more work piled up.
This final match was different from the normal one she played in previously.
In a regular match, there was still a chance of restarting after losing.
A regular match’s outcome wouldn’t shake the core of a team.
However, this world championship’s final match was different.
If they lost, that meant the entire team’s effort for the year would go to waste.
It really wasn’t easy for the team to get this far…
They couldn’t afford the slightest mistake.
Meanwhile, Xyla would have to take it seriously if she took part in such a competition.
This meant that she’d need to put in more than ten times or a hundred times the effort. She couldn’t only take some time out to practice with the other team members a few days before the match began, just like how she did in the past…
This time, she’d need to go all in.
