Now two figures with different auras were standing in the air, in the highest layer of sky in the world of Ares. A figure wearing all black clothes, and a figure wearing all white clothes. The figures of men and women stood upright with each other, not too far away or too close. Both were silent, and seemed reluctant to say what was going on right now. Until finally, a screen appeared real, showing the underworld where all the players there were starting to get confused. How not, the figure of The Legend Master that they had been waiting for suddenly disappeared, of course, it would be enough to make them feel curious. Moreover, The Legend Master disappeared in a precarious state, when the challenge match was just about to begin.

"Why did you bring me here?" The question was clearly emblazoned in the private message between the black-robed figure and the long-haired woman who had her back ponytailed. The owner of the avatar also seemed to blink her eyes, ten fingers stuck right on the keys of the computer keyboard in front of her. As if confused about what to answer, the owner of the beautiful female avatar was confused about how to answer the question from the number one figure in this game. Because after all, even she just knew that the figure who had helped her was The Legend Master who had been sought after by all the TOP players in the online game world of Ares.

"I'm sorry, The Legend Master. Not that I meant to mess up your game, or anything. It's just, you saved me a while ago, so I wanted to simply return the favor by taking you away from the underworld."

"Why did it happen?" The question was asked again by the figure who wore all black robes. A figure that looks so arrogant, firm, cold, but so authoritative. It's not wrong if all the elite items you have and your avatar have no equal in this game.

"Because they took you to a match, not because they really wanted to fight you fairly. They already have a trick to make you lose and make you feel harassed in front of all the novice or senior players. Even the global top will see how you are being harassed. As the number one player in this game, especially since you're from the same country as me, having a talented player like you is an honor. So how can the pride of our country be humiliated in front of the world? That's a no-no, and that's why I took the initiative to take you away from there. Even though at this time you might be called a coward, or even a loser, it's not an important issue. More than that, all eyes also know if you go with the state, I brought you. Let them think which player is really insolent to have stolen The Legend Master in the middle of the match. And maybe they will think that player is the most stupid and ignorant player. However, I don't really care."

Miura seemed to be smiling behind the screen of his cellphone, he didn't expect that the figure he had just met would have enough attention for him as The Legend Master even in the virtual world. Whatever it was, Miura had almost no friends or people who paid close attention to him. So, if someone suddenly paid attention to him like this, it would be enough to make Miura feel touched as well.

"You are very kind, thank you. I hope you have a nice day. I have favored you by saving me from a fierce battle by one of the most capable guilds in this country, which reportedly has always been a game tournament finalist for the last three years in a row. Seeing your courage and level, I think you are also a woman who is quite good at this match."

The figure behind the computer monitor flinched, her eyes filled with tears, 'woman' did The Legend Master guess it was a woman, now? Even so far, Yuki had never been called and considered a woman by everyone she met in the Ares world. Even when it hurts, Yuki has always been called a sissy who doesn't know herself, by disguise and using the avatar of a woman, but her killing ability is like that of a brutal man. For the first time, Yuki felt someone knew her for real, except for her guild mates of course. Yuki seemed to be smiling, the thin line of her lips had now formed a perfect crescent moon.

"How do you know I'm a girl? Did you just guess?" Yuki asked in a private chat with Miura.

Miura smiled again, without even waiting, he immediately replied to Yuki's question.

"Do I need to explain in detail? Or should I explain briefly?" he said, turning the question.

"Both," Yuki replied.

"No man would waste time writing messages that long, especially in a private chat of an online game," replied Miura.

Reading the message, Yuki seemed to be cursing himself. Unlucky! Yuki thought he seemed too talkative to The Legend Master right now, so it was easy for him to guess before he even admitted that he was a woman.

"Then the second?" asked Yuki who was still curious. Is there any other reason that is far more convincing than just a chat that so clearly proves that she is a woman? Of course, that still made Yuki not sure at all.

"Yuki Kagami, nice to meet you. I hope we will meet again on campus,"

Yuki looked dumbfounded at the last chat reply from The Legend Master. Her hands were shaking so much now. Her round eyes widened so real.

Yuki Kagami? Yes, that is her name. And The Legend Master said her name so loudly, especially discussing campus problems. That means if what her friends say is true. If the figure of The Legend Master is on the same campus as her.

Who is it, then?

Yuki tried to remember what had happened since morning, she didn't even think she had met a person who deserved to be called The Legend Master in the online game world. Except ….

"Is he?" muttered Yuki, half guessing.

Until finally she was surprised by a fairly loud tap on her shoulder, and it immediately made Yuki turn off the computer, before she even had time to remove her account from the game.

"Honey, what are you thinking about?" The question immediately made Yuki smile stiffly, she shook her head perfectly, then took her bag and left.

"No, it's okay, I have to go to the bathroom now!" The answer is short.
