1206 Words
"Eh? Everyone couldn't make it again for a couple of days?"
I muttered to myself after seeing the Group Chat. I immediately reply.
'It's fine! Make sure you get enough rest and make sure you finish whatever you're doing! Don't rush things up and make sure everything is perfect! Good luck!'
Yeah sure... I'm bummed out that no one is able to play with me. Including Michi since she's a bit too busy learning new technique...
I have couple of days before Floor 5 get update and I'm not going to wait for anyone. Oh right... We're in class right now. Learning some pretty cool new stuff. But I just make sure everyone get my message. Since I don't know when they're going to be leaving.
Anyway... After finishing my assignment... And decided not to take care of anyone else... I just kind of left the Class by telling Miss Shimizu that I have stomachache. While actually... I just want to be alone.
So I sat down at the Toilet. Making sure everything is cleaned up. I look at my phone and just keep scrolling through social media.
Hm... There's nothing huh... It would be nice if there's something open tournament around. Or official announcement would be great as well... I just need something. Come on. Don't let the legend of OneSec end here!
With frustration in my mind. I leave the bathroom and go back to class normally. As I was walking toward my seat... Michi touch my butt and I get flustered.
"W-What are you doing?!"
I asked her calmly and quietly. But still enough for her to understand what she's done.
"Where did you go? You didn't look like someone who just finish going to the Toilet. You're way too dry for someone who actually do that. Or do you not wash yourself?"
She asked. I snapped and pinch a bit of her cheek.
"That's a rude thing to ask me you know? Of course I wash myself. But I didn't specify if I'm going to actually do it right? I mean... I didn't even have the stomachache in the first place..."
I said to her that. And that caught my group attention.
"Then why are you leaving?"
They asked. I just stare at my laptop and muttered.
"Cause I got nothing better to do. I'm bored and Lonely. So, Why not just take a stroll to the Toilet to refresh my brain. Since that's the one spot everyone get their brain rolling."
I explained. Everyone nodded and I immediately know what to do. If there's no one doing tournament. Why don't make your own?! Well, I'm not going to do that. But I will try to cross server if that's possible. Maybe make new Chara to see who I can compete with.
Oh... Yeah... Let's check other server... And that's exactly what I do. Just looking through other server to see who is going to be my rival when Cross Server eventually arrive.
And as expected. NONE. It really blow something inside my heart...
"What am I doing now? Did I just become too strong?"
I muttered in real life. Michi heard and muttered.
"Yeah you did."
Of course... Hearing that reply really confirm my suspicion... I guess I didn't have any chills huh. Haa aa... What a waste...
And then... With boredom... Lesson finished. I just walk out alone and everyone was staring at me weirdly. The reason being is because... I'm frowning, my face is cold and I have earphones on. And that's not normal for me.
And then... While I was walking out alone with Michi far away from me... I started talking.
"Ah! Hey Rio! How are you doing?"
"Hey sup. I'm fine. What's the matter Mr. Number 1?"
"Ahaha. Stop with that can you? I just want to see how are you doing. It's been a year since you move to the foreign land right? How is life out there?"
"Oh. It's been nice. Anyway. Can you tell me what happened? If you call me, That means you're in trouble."
Rio Alvario. A Man of his Word. He's a VR Fanatic and he's an overlord on the other server. But...
"Hey Rio. Have you tried Eclipse Online yet?"
"No. And I don't think I would be. I'm happy with the old game we played. The FPS one is still the best for me. So, If you want to play. I suggest you make a new chara in this server. But it's all depends on you though."
I can hear his voice is trying to lure me back into that game... And I'm tempted to be honest to go back to the sweaty land of FPS.
"What are you talking about Shiro?"
Michi poke my shoulder and call me out.
"Ah. I'm just talking to my old friend."
I explained to her. She nodded. She decided to not interfere. And then. I hear Rio chuckling.
"Is that your Queen, King?"
"Yup. That's my Queen. Anyway. How about yours? Is everything alright?"
"Yeah. Nothing's wrong here. Anyway. If you want to check the other server. I'm the top player. I can give you some free top stuff since you always do that to me."
Rio said. I chuckle and said.
"Yeah. I will call you when that happen. See you."
"See you. Good work."
He end the call and I put away my Earphones. Now that I have something to chase for now... Let's chase the other game since I'm bored because... All my friends are busy with their family and Uni Stuff.
So, Michi and I drive back home. Along the way... She immediately asked me.
"So... Can you tell me who that was?"
"Rio Alvario. He's what you can call a famous... Video Maker. He's in the top seat for the best FPS player in the world right now. Not including VR. He's the type of person who like sitting down and playing with keyboard and mouse... And also... He's also what you can call... A Famous... Virtual Liver."
I said to her. She blow her mouth out and said.
"V-V-Virtual Liver?!"
"Yup. He's that. The reason he moves away from here is because of that anyway. But you know, I kind of glad he got that job. Since I get to watch him live sometime and It just nice remembering the good old days."
"But wait... Is he a VR Player as well?"
"Yeah. He is. He's really good at VR FPS. His Rio form. But in his Virtual Form... He mostly play traditional stuff."
"Ah. I see..."
"Yeah... I really missed playing with him. He really likes to wreck some noobs along with me."
I muttered to Michi. She then chuckle and said.
"That's not good for you. But hey, I'm glad you have someone you know..."
She said. I hope I get the chance to play with Rio again someday. I don't know if I can convince him to play Eclipse Online. But the moment havoc wrecks in the old game... That's the time where he will come in like a meteor to the Eclipse Online. And I'm confidence he will arrive at that time.
So Come to me... Meteor. I'm waiting for you.
