Adopted Soldier

The next match was about to begin and it was between Alex’s team, and a team who was famous around the area . After the two teams greeted each other, they went to their designated seats . The game had begun, and the gameplay was being projected in two big screens that was placed behind the players so they couldn’t see . The crowd didn’t know what Emily’s in game name was, the only thing they know was her team’s play will be projected on the screen on the left .

When the game started Alex and Emily didn’t change their play style they quickly chose the usual sniper rifle . Like usual Emily was going in scope mode at the beginning . When her play was being highlighted everyone was amazed that she was moving without removing the scope . This showed that she had perfect understanding of the layout of the whole map .

The crowd at this point didn’t know that this was Emily who was playing, so they were amazed and in awe but they weren’t going fanatical like awhile ago . Yet after a few seconds when an enemy peaked and was caught in her scope, she fired which resulted in a headshot . Emily got first blood, and when she did so, she raised her in game rifle upwards, and raised her actual right arm in a clench fist indicating that was her .

When the crowd saw this, they went wild . They finally knew how good their Queen was . The other players were amazed that the cosplayer that they were mocking at the beginning turned out to be a Godly gamer .

"The eternal night has descended!" One of Emily’s fans shouted, which resulted into a continuous cheer . The fans were having a blast, Emily then signaled them to stop . It was at this moment when most of the people were distracted by Emily’s shenanigans, Alex had killed two more enemies .

When the replay for the kill was displayed, it was another amazing play . Alex didn’t use the scope of the sniper rifle and simply shot twice without the crosshair, hitting the moving targets which resulted into headshots . So it was not just Emily who was God level player there was someone else in Emily’s team that was as good as her . This excited the audience even more . The only people watching that knew who the other player was, were the Mercenary club, and the Gaming Club members .

The other players finally understood what the defeated players meant, when they said it was all headshots . These two players since the beginning had never made one mistake and their accuracy at this point was nearing a hundred percent .

Blair and Kim Suho who heard the screaming fans felt a bit conflicted . They wanted to win, but at the same time they wanted to show that they weren’t just decorations either . They too were players, and it’s not like they were bad players . Both of them were really good, and Blair was better than most of the players here .

Yet if you placed them beside Alex and Emily they just become normal players . They did try their hardest to contribute something, but before they can even shoot Alex or Emily had already killed all the enemies and that would be the end . They were winning, but at the same time they didn’t feel like they were winning .

Niel on the other hand, didn’t try to match up to the two . He knew from the start the difference in skill . So instead of forcing himself to kill an enemy he decided to devote all his attention to support . Since the beginning of the tournament Niel had been silently supporting both Alex and Emily .

He would throw a perfectly timed flash grenade . He would provide cover fire for Emily, and Alex when they needed it . He even knew where to place the smoke grenades to distract the enemies long enough for either Alex or Emily to kill them .

The audience were so bewildered by Alex and Emily’s gameplay that they didn’t notice the one supporting the two was no slouch either . The only one who noticed Niel’s style of playing was the ace player of another team .

To that ace both Alex and Emily’s aggressive one man play style was dangerous . But the one he considered the real threat was the one supporting the two Niel . If Niel was removed from the equation both Alex and Emily would have a significantly harder time to kill .

So once the support is gone, it would be easier to pick on Alex and Emily as a separate unit .

’This game isn’t suppose to be played alone, I will show you how flawed your way of playing is . In the semi-finals I will beat the two of you . ’ The ace of this team was also a God level player . The more he watched Alex and Emily’s way of playing the more angry he got .

To him this way of playing was a total sacrilege of how the game was truly meant to be played . There was a reason this was team based game .

. . .

The game ended with overwhelming victory for Alex’s team, at this point Emily was still in a one point kill advantage .

The moment the audience saw that Emily’s team won, they went berserk . "The enemies have embraced the eternal night!"

The crowd cheered for Emily, who responded with a twirl and an elegant curtsy . The crowd who saw Emily’s actions felt their hearts beating faster . Then Emily smirked at the them, the audience who saw her smirking in such a cute way captured their hearts . Even the ladies couldn’t help but be captivated at this point .

Emily’s stage presence was undeniable, and she was on stage with Alex, and Niel who both looked cool and handsome . Yet even with their looks they couldn’t captivate the audience as much as Emily did .
