"It's finally the time, haah. I have been waiting for this moment for a month now!"
It's been a month since I started watching that crap, and it wasn't the best experience.
From watching a man get eaten slowly by a spider to people getting ripped apart by trees—I saw everything.
'The spider especially almost made me puke, ehh.'
There were 2 types of spectating. The first was watching everything from the above which wasn't too great due to the far space. Couldn't they just give me zoom in at least!?
The second was watching from my chosen challenger place which I used for most of the time.
Anyway, I had to buy something for Nameless so his chance of survival would increase.
I figured out that the chance of survival isn't fixed, currently, it was around 20%, so maybe it was too low at the start because of his lack of experience.
I opened the shop and couldn't help but grin in satisfaction when I saw my money.
❖[Balance]=2210 Coins❖
This was one of the benefits of choosing early, I also get coins early!
And thanks to that man Kaito, Nameless was able to kill too many monsters.
I moved through different categories to find something that would be useful for him, but my eyes only fixed on 2 things.
════════
[Nightmare Katana]:
Description: A dark katana made from the spine of a Tier 2 Nightmare Python.
Enchantments:
• Decay resistance (Tier 2)
• High durability (Tier 1)
Price: 1500 Coins.
[Affinity Sensing Potion]
Description:a potion made from the rainbow hawk's blood. It can make you sense a random affinity instantly.
Price: 18000 Coins
════════
"WHY ALWAYS EXPENSIVE?! I will kill whoever puts up the prices someday, JUST WAIT!"
I took a deep breath and started thinking about what I should do.
I had to either start saving for the potion and hope that the other VIP viewers would give him something good or just buy that katana for him.
'Well, if he got the katana he would kill more, and more kills mean more money for me!'
I opened the shop and bought the Nightmare Katana, and instantly, the katana appeared in front of me.
"Wait, no sheath? Those stingy bastards!"
I sighed and pressed
Immediately, I pressed on it then it disappeared after pressing 'Confirm'.
"Now for the message."
I started thinking for some time before finally deciding what I want to say.
[Error! You can't send information about other Challengers]
"Motherfucker!"
I was trying to warn Nameless about a potential threat in his team. That threat didn't just hide its affinity and act weirdly while no one was watching, but even my sixth sense was alarming me every time I saw that challenger.
I ran a hand through my hair and inhaled slowly to calm myself.
"I can only hope that he notices this himself."
I sent him a normal message—which worked this time—and thought about returning.
Instantly, I was back home.
"A whole month there. That shit is exhausting. But I didn't expect that the government would be completely powerless."
"Yeah, I agree."
"Ah!" A strange sound left my mouth suddenly when I heard Zephyr behind me.
"Buhahaha! I should have recorded this!"
"Shut up Zephyr! Wait, isn't that Zorath's laugh?"
"Buhahaha, you have good ears it seems."
My eyes started twitching after hearing him. My trait was supposed to keep my emotions stable, but he was just too annoying!
"Cough." Alfred suddenly cut us off. "Young master, we have to leave. The queens are calling us."
"Huh? So no more Raylin's food?"
"Unfortunately, young master."
My eyes started twitching again. I had to resist the urge to cut his throat.
"Well, we have to go now unfortunately. And by the way, I chose Nameless too at the end. Call me later to discuss what we shall give to him."
"Sure."
The next moment, Zephyr tried to take Cel's hand, but Alfred stopped him.
"Huh?"
"Unfortunately, they called only both of us. She will have to stay here."
After hearing this, Zephyr's expression turned into something between anger and hesitation—but then he sighed and said with sad tone:
"Hey Ray, please take care of her for now."
"Su–Sure."
The next moment, they both left the house, leaving me and Cel—Who was just staring silently since the start—alone.
"...."
'Of all people, they left me with the lie detector!'
After standing silently for a minute, I decided to talk to her.
"Sooo, you want some juice?"
Her eyes shined instantly and gave an "Mhm!" before rushing to the kitchen.
I sighed lightly before following her.
* * * * *
*Ding!*
[You were chosen by 5 VIP viewers and 1 VVIP viewer! Press for more details]
[You got 5 messages. Press for more details]
[You got 3 gifts! Press for more details]
[Please remember that you can choose only 2 gifts and 5 messages every month, the unchosen gifts and messages will appear in the inbox again next month]
"Huh?"
"Is that it?"
"They were really watching all the time."
"BUHAHAH! 3 VVIP viewers chose me. You hear that Kaito!"
"I got 20."
"WHAT!"
I looked at the screens that appeared in front of me. And after reading them, I understood my situation.
'So that's how we are gonna talk with them.'
"Wait, if you got messages then read them first. We will discuss the gifts part together." Braham suddenly said with a serious expression."
"Hehe, that's cool and all, but I didn't get messages nor gifts." Cecil said with a smile.
Aurelia lowered her head. "I only got one gift, so it doesn't really matter."
I sat behind master Kai and pressed on the first screen.
════════
[VIP]: Night Terror(Eldoria) • Purple Divinity(Eldoria) • Night Terror's Former Cat(Eldoria) • The Solar Prince(Eldoria) • The Real Eclipse Monarch (Eldoria)
[VVIP]: The 40th Season Winner(Titan)
════════
My eyes widened for a moment while reading the screen.
"Hey! They are Eldorians!"
"Grrr, none of mine are Eldorians."
"There are strange worlds' names here, like Zeb-ra-so-wa-no-mi-ra-fo-na—"
Braham suddenly cut him off. "—Kaito, we got the point. Well, it doesn't matter if the viewers are Eldorians or not anyway."
I continued reading and found a strange name.
'N-Night Terror's Former Cat!?'
I shook my head and ignored this for now. Their relationship wasn't my problem.
'Oh, I also got a former winner.'
That was good news. If the name was real, that would mean we weren't getting scammed.
I closed the screen and pressed on the messages. I was only able to see who sent the message to choose from,but fortunately I was able to take all of them this time.
[Night Terror: I will allow you to be my friend in the academy if you survive. Make this your motivation!]
[Purple Divinity: If you need anything, just ask and I will try to buy it for you.]
[The Solar Prince: All the kingdoms are doing their best to find you all.]
[The 40th Season Winner: I know a real winner when I see one!]
[The Real Eclipse Monarch: Think about dying and I will kill you myself.]
"...."
I… I decided to ignore the first and last message and focus on the bright side. They were most likely good people.
"Did you get any useful information?" Master Kai suddenly asked.
"Not really. But my only VVIP viewer is calling himself The 40th Season Winner.
"It doesn't matter. Tell us the gifts now!" Cecil shouted excitingly.
I nodded and opened the gifts.
'Let's hope that they are good.'
