Enter the Game (Parte-2)
He had long since heard of the Blue Star Square's digital department. It wasn't too far from where he lives and he could get there in 20 minutes by jogging.
As such, he could only jog over, since his bike was confiscated.
When he came to Blue Star Square, it was barely morning, yet most workers were already working. However, there were still many people walking around, most of whom were students.
He quickly entered the back, and asked where the digital development department was, then walked in.
The office was at the top of the building and seeing the digital development department's sign, his eyes nearly popped out.
It was Large, with everything, including the main office, a gym, bedroom, restroom, everything you could ask is here.
He looked here and there and found no one
"Hey Brat, who are you?"
Came the voice of a heavy muscle build man, he looked like he came straight from the army, with his short cut hair, heavy muscle build, and the way he walks.
"H-Hello sir, My Name is Haru Glory, I was told to be here at 6 by Miss. Ling Xue
"MISS Xue, SOMEONE HERE CLAIMS TO MEET YOU", the muscle-building man yelled to the office behind
And there she came from inside with her chest heaving and sweat dripping off her body, she just came from work out, anyone could tell that.
*Gulp
His breath was taken by how beautiful she is
"You came", she asked smiling
"Yes, First of all, thank you for your job offer"
"Yes Yes, here is your contract I prepared everything, you just need to sign it"
He took the paper and read it, basically what it says is
His monthly salary will be 30,000 Dollars (Upgradable), and his timings will be 6 A.M TO 9 P.M With no holidays (Until unless specifically given), he can't tell anyone about the confidential issues, and this contract will be reviewed after 1 year.
"Are you satisfied with it?"
"Miss Xue, this no holiday clause--
"What we do is different from your normal jobs, of course, there can not be a single day holiday"
"Oh"
"Mr. Glory, I will make it clear to you, I am giving you 30,000 Dollars as a base price, in 6 months, your salary will be 60,000 dollars.... but make no mistake, even if I am giving you such high salary, I will squeeze you more than you could ever be worthy of... So think carefully before you sign it, because you will hate me in 2 months, and by the end of the year, you will think me as your mortal enemy"
Haru's eyes narrowed, and he speaks resolutely, "Miss Xue, I told you, I am willing to do anything you ask of me, I need money, and I am willing to work very very hard for it", he resolutely signed the contract.
"Do you know what we do, and why I took you in?", she asked
"Uh... Because you were grateful for me to let you crash in my place, and I stole your helmet, so you didn't have a choice", he answered
"No, If it's because of that I would have just gifted you the helmet, I gave you the offer because you show potential"
"Potential?"
She smirks, "Haru Glory, The Archery Sensation, He hit the target at 1800 meters, he can hit the moving targets accurately at 500 meters, a Talent never has been seen in this field"
"Uh... well"
"Listen, we are professional Gamers, I am starting up a company from its base, you are my first Pro Gamer I Scouted"
"Professional Gamers, Don't They Earn Very... Little", he asked timidly
"Little?", she scoffed at him disdainfully, "Listen, I don't know which era are you living in, but we earn a lot more than you could ever imagine"
"Y-Yes, I am sorry for saying such a thing", he bowed to her
"Very well, welcome to our Blue Star, My name is Ling Xue like you already know, This man here is Michael, he is our Fitness trainer, another one of our employee, Zara, is our Nutrient expert, she will make sure you stay in peak form during your time here, and then there is top employer his name is Rain, he is our strategist... these guys don't play the game directly but these guys payment is like that of S rank experts, so make sure you take advantage of everything here"
"Yes boss, Hello Sir Michael", he bowed to the trainer
Michael smirk at the little boy in front of him
"Come with me", she brought him inside the office to the gym
"Being a professional gamer is never easy, here you will train from 6 in the morning to 9 till the night, you will improve your reaction, your ability to dodge and think according to the situation", she continued
"Wow, never thought playing the game could require so much hard work"
"Make no mistake, professionals are different from normal people, they train and train till they drop, and then play in the night to apply their training"
She turned to look at him, "We do an intense amount of training for 15 hours, just so we could implement that training in the game for 6-9 hours, then we do the same thing the next day"
"But won't it yield better results, if they play for 20 hours or so? instead of training so much"
She shook her head, "No, Only Idiots do that, real professionals don't do that, of course, because of it, their level will be extremely high from us, but they could never beat us... Have you heard of gamers who are level 10 or so beating level 30 or so level"
"Yes"
"That's because they train their reaction to their limits, they knows the weakness of every class, and they can easily sense their Killing intent, You can shoot, no doubt about that, but if you meet someone who is trained and prepared at the same level, you will be trashed"
He nodded
"And besides don't worry your level will be higher than normal average guy"
"What... How? are we going to hunt with a guild or something?"
"What guild, we are going to play solo, only occasionally helping each other out in the times of need"
"So how?"
"Sigh... Once you are prepared enough, you can take on multiple monsters, even bosses might be a possibility for the solo player, that's why your level and your item will be much higher than the normal guys"
"What about the pros... can I beat them"
"That depends on you... but make no mistake, they are working like this for years already, so if you don't have the talent, don't think about beating the pros"
"I understand boss"
"Michael"
"Yes Miss Xue"
"Give this guy a complete makeover, Make the man out of this boy in 2 months before the start of the game"
"Yes Miss Xue"
And she left just like that
"Brat"
"Yes Sir", he was startled
"I heard you can shoot from pretty far, 500 meters to the moving targets that's very impressive"
"Thank you sir"
"So, how much fast does the target need to be before you miss?"
"I-I don't know"
"Very well, how about the unpredictable targets that move in every direction at the very last second... can you hit them?"
"I-I can't", he lowered his head
"Don't worry you are in better shape than miss Xue when she first came to me"
"Really?", his eyes widening
"Yea, so don't think she is out of your league just yet, man up boy", he grins
He blushed
"Come let's go to shooting range, you are going to be shooting today with the bow"
He smiled, "Yes sir"
-------
Days passed, he trained like hell every day under the direct guidance of Michael, Zara look after his meal, for him to maintain his peak condition
And Ling Xue teach him all about classes strength and their weaknesses
And he learns all about strategies from the Rain, he does not wish to admit it, but Rain is good, no, he is very good, he shows Haru the videos of the fighting of all the top-ranking players, he teaches Haru how to beat a move, he teaches haru how to take control of a battlefield as the range type player, when to use skills when to dodge, when to take damage, when to bluff and when to attack
If someone asks him about Rain, he would say that Rain is a Godly level Human
He is handsome, he is cold as Antartica who never ever smiles, he is a FREAKING GENIUS, Rain is the Super ace of this Gaming Studio, the Sole reason, this Gaming Studio is able to attract superstar names such as Micheal and Zara...
Ling Xue once told him that Rain is being coveted by Many top rank Studios, and they are willing to pay an incredible amount of money for him
Rain is freaking God... and it's an honor to be trained by him
Haru was right, He does not belong in this elite group, but since he is already a part of it, he is going to work extremely hard to keep this job.
-------
Michael yelled in the gym
Faster faster
*Huff*Huff
He ran with the weight tied up to him from one end to another
FASTEEEEEERRRRRR
------
"YOU CALL THIS DODGING, MY 3-YEAR-OLD SON CAN DODGE BETTER THAN THAT", Micheal throws another ball at the bruised and beaten Haru
-------
Jab Jab up down left right
He is beaten up and bruised up, he is also bleeding, yet he dodges every punch in boxing Michael throws at him
-------
The next day he is ready to take the beating again, as Zara fixed him in a single day, she is wonderful at her job.
-------
A professional gamer tried to hit his opponent but he missed... but the support from the range damaging player, who was hiding far away shot an arrow, and the player who was dodging got hurt
The time was enough for the professional gamer to launch an attack.
But a simple fireball from nowhere killed the gamer and the ranger in the hiding got killed by the Assassin.
The Video paused
"This Video is around the time when First Virtual game came out, so it's around 10 years old, can you tell me what happened in this vedio", Rain asked Haru
"Yes, The Warrior although hit the swordsman, the main force fighting the opponent, didn't manage to see the mage, and also the ranger didn't manage to sense the killing intent from the assassin either, and so they lost"
"Very Good... But the answer is wrong", Rain said
"It is not the Warrior's fault, his job is to fight the opponent in front of him with brute force, killing in a powerful attack force, but it's the job of the Ranger or cleric or a mage to protect his back from all the ambushes, Here the sole fault lies with the Ranger, if he could not sense the opponent ambushing the warrior, he is not fit to be Ranger... Haru, the main focus of a Ranger is not Agility or Marksmanship, it's the ability to see"
"To see?"
"Yes, if the ranger could not see the ambushes, or accurately predict the attack pattern and could not sense the killing intent, then it's no use of Shooting at someone", Rain Concluded
"I get it now", he nodded
"Very Well Let's see another vedio", Rain turned around and play another video
-------
"Big Brother, you are home?", His little sister asked from the kitchen
"Yea, I am home", he replied in a tired voice
"Welcome home", she came to welcome him
"Where did you learn how to cook anyway?", he asked
"Guolin Grandma taught me... I can at least make a better version of your food"
He scoffed, and bring out 30,000 dollars
Her eyes widened, "B-Brother
He laughed and caressed her head gently, as his eyes held nothing but love for his little sister, "Now we can pay the bills, you can buy things like your friends and you can go to the field trip"
She shook her head at that, "I don't need to do that, this money can be used to make a better living for---
"Ying'er, please for your brother's sake, live like a normal teenager, please?"
"Brother"
"Please?"
She pouted and looked at the side, "Fine, I will go to the field trip"
He grins, "Tomorrow, we will go shopping"
"Shopping? we can't do that", she said forcefully
"Nonsense, My sister will not look like a beggar in the field trip, we are going shopping tomorrow, to buy you clothes and necessity during the trip"
"B-But what about the bills and---
"They can come later, you come first"
"Get your priorities straight, you idiotic brother", she snatches the money from him and gives some money to him, "I will take care of the bills and the clothing"
He giggled, "My Ying'er is so responsible and intelligent, Just like mother"
She scoffed at him disdainfully, "That's because you are an Idiot, just like dad"
He giggled, she giggled
And the next day they went shopping... with the little money he is given by his little sister...
Of course, he was given the day off by his boss
-------
SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT
MICHAEL KEEPS YELLING WITH THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS
*Peng
Five shots at the same time, in 100 meters all hitting the targets, it was definitely a feat to be fear
"Remember, it's the virtual gaming, here your stats limit your movements, but your instincts, your reactions, and your skills that you develop in real life, will be with you all the time... It's not like it was 10 years ago, where you just have to mash on the keyboard, it's different these days and the way we train is changed throughout these years of Virtual Gaming"
"I will remember Micheal"
"GOOD NOW SHOOT AGAIN...."
-------
He stands at the door of his room with his nose bleeding, in his bed sleeps a drunk naked beauty
It's a good thing, he could do naughty things with her, but the problem is this naked drunk beauty is his boss
Ling Xue, somehow drunk again, and went straight to his home, strip down her cloth in front of him and sleep by throwing him out of his room
He had the nosebleed the entire night, as he just stares at the naked beauty, he looks down at his pants and went to the bathroom to fulfill some of his needs.
-------
Next day, she ate at his home as nothing happened, but to him, everything changed, he blushes whenever he looks at her now...
-------
Days continue on, and one thing he is sure that changed is Ling Xue technically occupied his room as her own, she comes his home nearly every night, drunk and just went straight to his room and sleep on his bed... she does not even look at him when doing this.
He didn't manage to get to sleep on his own bed for days now...
He is determined to purchase a new bed, or he would have to keep sleeping on the floor, for god knows how many days.
-------
"Tomorrow the game is starting, although you have much to learn, but, you should know that my first student can not fall down from top-ranking... I have a reputation to maintain as the highest rank Trainer", Rain said smiling
He smiled and said with a determination, "Don't worry Rain, Tomorrow at night, I will take the Gaming world by storm"
"You better remember that", Zara Came inside
"Hahaha He will Zara, Otherwise I will just have to increase his training routine", Micheal too came inside.
"Are you ready for tommorow", finally came Ling Xue who completed her own training under these guys
Looking at her he blushed like a teenage girl, who saw her crush in front of her.
Everyone smirked at him, Rain, Micheal does not look at Xue like a woman, Zara is a woman herself, and for Xue, she didn't care, after all she technically eats breakfast and sleeps at his home on a daily basis nowadays, and he blushes every time he sees her.
But what worries him the most is, Ying'er Field trip of 1 month will end the day after tomorrow, what will happen when she will see Ling Xue sleeping in his room, wearing nothing...
He shudders at the thought, maybe His little sister will show mercy and does not kill Xue, she is his boss, and the only way he could earn money...
Whatever, he will just have to hide this boss from his little sister.
He blushed, why does it sound like he is hiding his girlfriend from his parents.
"EVERYONE", Xue yelled suddenly, "Tomorrow we are debuting our Gaming Studio, Good luck"
"GOOD LUCK", Everyone yelled
