Virtual Sword God!

While Bill and Hastam were busy chatting away, Novis could feel his heartbeat thumping even louder.

"How the hell did the topic of conversation change to me!" Novis thought. All he wanted to do was scream at them to stop.

"Do you want me to do something?" Arthur asked.

"No, if we act now, they will know something is up," Novis replied.

The smile on Bill's face was huge as he happily talked about his brother to Hastam."Oh, so your brother will be playing in the semifinals then?" Hastam asked.

"Yeah and hill be facing off against Lucas bell, did you know their rumours going around that my brother actually beat him before, people can't wait for this game."

"Shut up, shut up, shut up." Novis was shouting out in his head.contemporary romance

Learning this piece of information Hastam had a thought, it was like jigsaw pieces were going into his head. He often liked playing detective games and watching movies but something just seemed to click.

Why did the Virtual sword god add Bill? Other then Hastam himself there has never been a case of this happening. He had a theory that Bill actually knew this person without realising it himself. Now Bill was also telling him that his brother had defeated Lucas before, someone even Hastam knew the name of.

Hastam then glanced over in the Virtual sword god's direction. He remained there completely motionless.

"Wait a minute!" Then lightning had stuck inside his mind, and a grin appeared on his face.

A student who was unable to attend the match this weekend because he had a conflicting schedule? No that wasn't the problem, the problem was the virtual sword god himself would be in the match. That's why he made up an excuse and had lied to him.

In the middle of Bill rambling on about his brother to Hastam, Hastam started to laugh out loud as he felt like he had just uncovered one of the biggest secrets in the world.

"Huh, did I say something funny?" Bill asked.

"Oh sorry, please continue." Hastam said.

Although Hastam felt like he had figured out this puzzle, he couldn't;t be a hundred percent sure. He was just connecting pieces but everything could have just been a coincidence.

But now he was even more excited to go to England.

"So what I was trying to say sir," Bill said acting a little nervous now. "If you think my brother is good enough, will you recommend him to a good university or even a pro team! I know he hasn't been playing long but, I've never seen my brother so excited about something before. And he's grown so quick it's unbelievable. I know he will be something special one day."

Hearing Bill talk about Novis so patiently, was heartbreaking for Novis. His brother had never shown this side to him before, but for the last fifteen minutes, all Bill had done was sung his praises to Hastam.

Whenever Novis was effected by his emotions, Arthur and George could feel it too. Novis had often forgotten about this part. Having these feelings Arthur decided to act. He walked forward and placed his hand on Bill's shoulder.

"It sounds like your brother is really special, I'm positive he will make it one day," Arthur said.

Suddenly, Hastam felt his whole theory was chucked away. Watching Arthur say that to Bill, he could tell the words were genuine. No one would be able to say those words about himself.

"And this is why you play games and you're not a detective," Hastam mumbled.

Finally though, the time for the three of them to play had arrived. When they entered their match, the audience who were following the Virtual sword god was surprised to see Hastam.

"It's Hastam, wait does this mean that he has links to their pro team."

"Maybe they have already recruited him and trying to keep it a secret from the other pro teams."

"Are you crazy, reporters would have already been all over this by now if it was true. Remember the virtual sword god has played with Hastam once before."

Inside the game, it was time for the team to pick lanes. The two random players they played with also knew of Hastam and the Virtual sword god's fame and said they were fine with wherever they wanted them to go, which made things easier.

"I guess, you two can go bottom together and I will go top with him," Bill said as he pointed at one of the other players.

Then Arthur shook his head."Hastam does not need my help, he is skilful enough, if I can I would like to play with you," Arthur said.

If Bill received any more surprises for the day he felt like he would pass out any second. Luckily he was actually sitting in his gaming chair.

"Okay." Bill managed to croak out.

Seeing this, Hastam's mind kept going back and forth. I was clear to him that the virtual sword god was giving Bill special treatment.

As the two of them went top lane and the match began, Arthur made sure to stay back. The people online watching were excited to see what Arthur would do. Would he defeat all his opponents in one blow, would he take on five at once. Every time the Virtual sword god played it felt like a special event had happened.

But as the game continued on, the online community actual felt a little bored. Arthur decided to remain at the back. He allowed Bill to initiate most of the time and whenever Arthur could, he would cover him.

Although at the same time. Arthur wasn't helping him out too much.

"Doesn't this feel weird." One of the players on the other team said.

"Yeah, like whenever I want to go somewhere, or change it up, he stops us."

Although it didn't look like anything special to the people online. The pros knew what he was doing. He was zoning the enemy players. He made it almost impossible for the players to go where they wanted, whenever they would move, Arthur was already three steps ahead of them.

Arthur wanted to create a situation where the only thing they could do to get out of it, was to attack them. Then whenever Bill just couldn't handle it, he would come in and help.

"Is he trying to teach me?" Bill thought.

This was exactly what Arthur was doing. It was very rare to just practice your fighting skills against high-level opponents. Especially in a two vs one situation. This was the perfect scenario to allow Bill to grow.

After fighting for a good amount of time, Arthur would then deiced to come in and help finish them off. For the next few games, the same thing happened again and slowly the online community were also realising what Arthur was doing.

"Just how, seriously, how is he able to toy with these diamond players."

"It feels like I'm watching a diamond go up against a bronze, but it's not were in D I A M O N D."

While Novis was watching the whole situation, he could see the huge smile on Bill's face. He couldn't help but feel sad. Novis was the older brother but never felt like he was. Bill was always there to help him when he had questions In the game. But Novis was never able to help Bill with anything.

He thought that perhaps if he had started the game at the same time as Bill, or even before he might have been good enough to do what Arthur was doing now."

Novis then started to think back to what Bill had said to Hastam, asking him to recommend Novis to a good university. To be honest, Novis hadn't thought much about what he would do with the game after fighting Lucas.

Lucas had and always was his current goal, and he had finally reached it. The only thing that was driving him then to continue playing was helping Arthur and George find there missing companions but was there anything he was doing for himself.

After playing a few games and winning every single one of them. The three of them had decided to return to the lobby. That's when Hastam had approached Arthur.

"I wanted to ask you a question." Hastam said, "What are you planning to do, you clearly a skilled player but chose to play online in these meaningless games. Do you have any plans, do you not want to go Pro?"

Then without realising it, Arthur had given control back to Novis, he could feel that Novis wanted to answer this question. He clenched his fist tightly and looked Hastam in the eye.

"I do."

What, Novis didn't realise was Hastam was currently live streaming his game to everyone who regularly watched him and although the game had finished, it was still recording him in the Lobby with the legendary sword god.

the recording had only started when they had first entered the game, so none of the beginning part of their conversation in the looby was heard.

But the next day once again, information was spread all over the internet and online talking about how the virtual sword god, was planning to go pro.
