Chapter 132: Day 2
If audio player doesn't work, press Stop then Play button again
Today, in school, I asked Elena why they have a low score. She said, 'We didn't encounter any monsters, so we got bored and logged out'.
Serah had some things to do, so she logged out and Elena logged out soon after. But today, they are pumped up.
They are already in 47th place.
I am 18th now.
I was 14th yesterday.
"Some players got ahead of me"
I need to find some diamond orbs.
"Hey Lily"
[What?]
"Can't you locate the location of diamond orbs by accessing the database?"
[I can't]
"Why is that?"
[They keep changing]
Sigh~~
[Sorry]
"Huh? Why?"
[I am not helping you]
"What are you talking about? You have helped me many times"
[Really?]
"Yeah, since the first time we met. You have been helping me"
She grabbed some of my hair and rubbed them against her cheeks.
"Yeah, I remember that"
I really wanted to smack her.
[I wonder when I fell in love with you]
"Yeah, I wonder that---what?!"
What did she say?
She just said she loves me, right?
[What about you, Das]
"What about what?"
[Some weeks ago, you said that you love me]
"Yeah, I did"
Dammit!
What am I getting so embarrassed about?!
[Do you really love me?]
"Yeah"
[What type of love?]
"What do you mean?"
[Is it the same love you have for Elena?]
"Yeah"
She flew and came in front of my face.
"What? Why?"
[You don't do stuff with me like you do to Elena]
"...."
[Do that to me too!]
"You are too close!"
[What's wrong with that?!]
"It's complicated!"
She kissed me on the forehead and sat back on my head.
[I will wait till the event ends]
"Wait for what?"
[Wait for you to kiss me]
"....."
Only if she had a bigger body.
[Wait. Das!]
"What's wrong?"
[There is an orb nearby]
"Where?"
[Down]
"Down?"
[There is a path downside]
"Is it the secret floor they talked about?"
[No. It's not a secret floor. This is one of the paths]
"Well, let's go then"
I jumped down the tunnel.
After sliding for some minutes, we reached another floor.
[This place is called Valley of trials]
The names sounds....how do I say it. It sounds like something is surely going to happen here.
There is a river, cliff, mountains and hills here.
"This is kind of different from the other floors"
[That means we are reaching the end point]
"This soon?! I mean, it's just the second say"
[There are only 378 players left now]
"So, on the last day, we have to face them, huh?"
I must find the person who sent me that message.
[Hey, Das]
"What?"
[There is a cave between those two mountains]
"Let's go inside"
We went inside.
The cave looked like another floor from inside. There is a river flowing on the right side.
"Let's hope we run into some strong monster here"
[Ummm]
"What's wrong?"
[I was picking up a sign of the orb from here some minutes ago, but now it's gone]
"Someone came here before us?"
[Looks like it]
Dammit!
"Is there any other way to enter the cave?"
[No, this is the only way. But whoever it was, they have already left]
"Is there any need to go inside now?"
[There might be another monster they didn't saw]
Sigh~~
[Why do you keep sighing?]
"It's nothing, my head hurts a little"
[Even in the game?]
"Yeah"
I can't think straight.
[Are you okay? You should log out for today]
"Can't do that. I have to enter top 10 today"
[You can do it tomorrow]
"I can't"
[You are taking a game too seriously]
It's for you.
I walked further in. There were lots of broken walls.
"So someone really fought here"
There are lots of big stones on the floor.
[The monster must be strong]
"We missed it"
They already went away otherwise, I would have chased them down.
It's still not too late.
They must be in the valley somewhere.
Should I use my sprinter skill?
That way it will be easy to chase them down, but it will enter cool down after that.
As Lily said, the monster was strong. That means they are stronger too.
Maybe there was more than one player.
If that's the case then fighting them without my skills would be hard.
Sigh~~
[Look, Das. There are remains of a monster there]
There was a big room on the right side. Inside that room, there was a huge body of stone...
"It's a golem?"
[Yeah, stone golem]
Dammit!
Its body still hasn't disappeared. That means it was killed just before we came here. Dammit!
"Let's go and search for---Argh!"
[Are you okay, Das!?]
"Yeah"
What was that?
I heard a scream. It was so high-pitched that my mind went blank for a second.
That scream wasn't from here, or like a voice-over, I hear whenever Lily speaks, it was inside my mind.
My body...why am I trembling?
Am I scared? There is no way I would be scared of a scream.
Argh! My head.
I tried taking pills, but it didn't help.
[Das, you don't look good. You should log out]
Dammit!
I am so pathetic.
I have to win this event, and yet...I keep letting my problems interfere with my goals.
Dammit!
This is the last time I am acting weak.
I will not be so hopeless again.
I will never let the lives of the people I love to get in danger.
"I am sorry, Lily. I will log out for today"
[Yeah. Take care]
I was trying to sleep after logging out, but my head is hurting so bad that I can't see.
"It's dinner time"
I will go eat something.
When I went downstairs, mom and dad were about to eat. They asked me to join, so I joined.
"How is it going?" mom asked.
"How is what going?"
"You know...with Elena"
"We are doing fine..oh! That's right, we got married in the game"
"What?"
"I married Elena in the game"
Mom and dad stared at each other with a nervous smile on their faces.
"VR games must have changed" Dad said, nervously.
"Yeah, I don't think it will be the same as it was back then"
What are they talking about?
"By the way, Das. I got a call from the palace"
"Is that...so?"
"Yeah, Dad has summoned you"
"I will go there after a week"
Dammit!
Why so suddenly?
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
