Chương 61: Luna The Gamer

[Looks Like It's Officially Confirmed] Author: xx Raccoon has finally changed the title on her profile from [Floor 1 Rank 8] to [Little Bomber]. Looks like she's finally embracing her true nature! Where are all the people who said that she didn't like that title!? But for real, is this the fastest title given? Even that dragon girl who's being hyped up everywhere hasn't met the requirements for their own title yet, has she? → [Not the fastest, but definitely one of the fastest.] → [It's so funny that she embraces the Little Bomber identity. She's never mentioned it or talked about it anywhere has she? We just assumed that she didn't care or disliked it.] ↳ [To be fair, there's so many terrorist allegations against her, it makes sense she never spoke about it.] ↳ [Why does she get terrorist allegations anyway? She's never sold her dynokali potions nor has she used them anywhere except the tower(that we know of)] ↳ [Bombs are scary and when you're called the 'Little Bomber', those who don't know are gonna assume.] ↳ [Honestly, this is absolutely hilarious to think about; Everyone always calls her a terrorist or the 'Little Bomber', and what does she do? Instead of clearing up misunderstandings or what not, she says nothing and quietly changes her official title to it. Might be one of my favorite awakeners of all time simply because of her trolling energy.] ↳ [… The rubber ball…] ↳ [I take it back, screw her.] [The public and government are sweating!] Author: xx Raise your hand if you think the government are fearing that she might actually become a little bomber.: hands raised: → [lolololol: hands raised:] → [: hands raised:] → [: hands raised:] → [Yeah, it's so funny. She's literally a terrorist and you're all making memes about it.] ↳ [Don't open any boxes anytime soon.] ↳ [???] ↳ [lolololol] [Dear, Little Bomber] Author: SweetPotionAddict WHY'D YOU STOP SELLING POTIONS!??? I USED TO BUY THEM DAILY AND SAVORED THE SWEETNESS. NOW? THEY'VE VANISHED! COME ON, LITTLE BOMBER, DO YOUR JOB AND SELL POTIONS, YOU'RE AN ALCHEMIST AREN'T YOU? PLEASEEE I BEG YOU PLEASEE PLEASE PLEASE → [You were able to purchase them daily? Screw you.] → [LOLOLOL] → [Little Bomber has revoked your right to drink sweet potions.] ↳ [(Author:) NOOOOOOOO] → [Little Bomber created an addict and then is now making them suffer. This is why I love her.] → [But for real though, setting aside the addict, is there any reason why she hasn't sold potions in like a week? Does she not want money or something?] ↳ [Who knows. Maybe she's preparing for something big. Or even joining a guild. Since she doesn't communicate with us, we can only guess.] ↳ [I think she just doesn't want money. In the first place, she only sells like 50 potions a day. Or, maybe she's switching to a different selling method? A lot of alchemists sell in bulk on specific days.] ↳ [Been over a week, unless she's selling monthly, I doubt it.] ↳ [How could we mortals fathom the brilliant mind of the Little Bomber? She hasn't been predictable since the beginning.] ↳ [Or, guys, think about it. What if she's just perfecting the Bouncy Bouncy potion? She's hyped that up recently and said it's going to be sold soon, I imagine that she'll return with a load of bouncy bouncy potions to sell.] ↳ [You're all wrong. She's actually preparing to solo the 5th floor.] ↳ [lololol, if is true happens, I'll eat my pants.] ↳ [Am Little Bomber, can confirm, will solo floor 5.] ↳ [Dude, I'll actually do laps naked around Shibuya crossing if she solos floor 5.] ↳ [I'm in, I'll do it around Times Square.] ↳ [Deal, near Han River for me.] ↳ [I'll first clear a floor naked if she clears floor 5.] ↳ [Anyways, let's all laugh at the loser who'll never get her potions again! LOLOLOL] ↳ [LOLOLOL] I yawned, taking a break from knitting for a moment.

"Are you tired?" Luna asked, glancing at me.

"Mm…" I lazily replied, "No, just…yawning."

"With your eyes half-closed, you don't sound very truthful."

"Your imagination." I quickly shook my head and widened my eyes.

"Pfft, sure." She chuckled.

"Oh right, can I really play games on your PC?"

"Mm? Go for it. Use it as if it's your own." A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

"You won't be bored, will you?"

"Why would I be bored?"

"Well…Never mind. Okay, I'm gonna play games then."

"Have fun." I smiled as she got up and headed to the bedroom. Focusing my attention back on the white scarf in my hand, I sighed before taking a deep breath and continuing. … Luna sat at the desk and quickly adjusted to the computer. Turning it on, she was met with a cute desktop of a raccoon knocking over a trash can.

"Hehe…" She chuckled at the cute sight before looking over Stella's installed games.

"Hm…Farming simulator? She likes that?" She thought for a moment before remembering that there is, in fact, a garden in the apartment. Then, she tilted her head again, "You can't get enough of farming in real life, so you do it in a game?" Shrugging, she didn't think more of it, just assuming it to be Stella's hobby before looking over the rest of the games.

"Oh, I guess I could play this." She mumbled, switching over to her own account. The logo appeared on screen as the computer launched the game; She was going to play a battle royale game. After seeing the gauntlet yesterday, she felt like doing some PVP. In the game lobby, she immediately queued up and found a match in an instant.

"Ah, I forgot to switch to solos…" She mumbled. Shrugging, she decided just to play out the match. Her teammate was a fellow named 'RumiVT'. [Hello! Hello!] A female voice came through the voice comms. Her voice was a little soothing, but you could still hear the youngness in it. Luna guessed she was probably in her 20's.

"Hello." Luna replied dryly. [Oh! Oh! A girl! Lucky!!!] Luna swiftly lowered her teammates volume. [Do you play this game often? I'm a platinum ranked player! I'll carry you!]"What build are you going to go?" Not indulging in her teammates energy, she moved onto the game. [I can play anything! I'll flex based on what you play!]"Okay. I'll play mage." [Got it! I'll go for a warrior then~] Luna silently added her skills. She was going with her usual build, an electric type mage.

[Let's match our synergy, you're going… Electric based? I'll go water based to amplify your skills.]"Okay." [So shy~] Luna didn't respond, just continuing to add her skills. [What!? It's not that she doesn't want to talk to me! She's just focused! That's all! Right!?] Luna tilted her head before quickly understanding. Her teammate was probably a streamer, just trying to make entertaining content. Realizing that, Luna slightly shifted her attitude.

"No comment." [What!?! No! You're joking, right!? Right!?]"Hurry up, we're about to spawn in." [Oh! Yes!] [No! I am not bully-able! She's not bullying me!] The game they were playing was based off the Awakener's League. Except, it was battle royale styled with 100 players. Players would get to choose their class and skills before the game started, then, when they load in, they can kill monsters for levels to upgrade their skills and loot for equipment or class upgrades. Luna and Rumi spawned in a village.

Although Rumi acted very pitifully, she was actually good at the game and smoothly explored while killing stray monsters and looting. Luna, with her high damage, focused on killing monsters to upgrade her skills. Soon, the two had looted and cleared out the entire village. [Wow! That was fast, looks like we got good synergy, don't we?]"It's average." [See! She says it's good!]"You're mishearing." [Oh! You meant it's great!? I knew it!]"Oh, a monster." Luna fired her [Shock] skill directly at Rumi. [Where-waah!? Hey! There's no monster! You just hit me!]"The monster disintegrated—it was on your shoulder." [Lies! You just wanted to hit me!]"I'm not lying. Were you never taught when someone does something for you, you should say 'Thank you'?" [Ah, thank you. Wait! No! You didn't do anything for me except hurt me!] Pretending she didn't hear it, the two continued on until they finally saw another team.

"Players." Luna commented. [Where? Oh! I see them. Should we go in?]"Yeah." Luna said, "They're wearing tier 5 armor—they're weak." [Got it! Chaaaaarge!] Rumi said and immediately started charging in. The enemy, obviously, noticed Rumi since she was in plain sight. They quickly reacted and shot fire-type skills like [Fireball] at her. While Rumi was faithfully distracting the enemy. Luna stealthily went around and out of sight of the two enemies.

Then, she started casting a long spell, [Thunderbolt] Rumi, noticing her teammate behind them, used her water-type skill, [Rain Caller] to soak the enemy. Her health was dwindling, but because of her recovery and tank skills, she could manage. Soon, [Thunderbolt] has finished its wind-up and casted. Thunder struck from the heavens, directly hitting the two enemies; Because they were soaked, the damage was amplified. Barely clinging onto life, the enemies were hit with a [Dazed] status effect.

Before they could do more, Rumi swiftly charged in and beheaded the two of them with her greatsword. [Wahahaha! Look at that! We're perfect teammates, aren't we!] Luna approached the bodies and started to loot,"You certainly played the fool well. They were so distracted by your antics that they didn't notice me." [Right-Hey! Wait a moment!? I'm not a fool!]"Right…" Luna rolled her eyes. While those two continued to play the game, Stella calmly continued to knit. …

"Mm…" I lifted the scarf to the light and carefully checked over the stitches.

"Looking good…" I mumbled. I was about 80% of the way finished with Luna's scarf. By the end of the day, it'll probably be done. She doesn't know that I'm making her a mouse scarf yet, so, I'm quite excited to see her reaction. I smiled just thinking about it. … On the screen, [Winner!] appeared. Luna let out a sigh of relief and leaned back in her chair. It was a hard-fought match, but in the end, she had come out on top. [Wooooo! We did it!] Rumi shouted through the voice comms. [That was so close!!]"Good game." Luna said. [Ah! Wait! Wait! Don't leave yet!] Luna stopped her mouse that was hovering over the 'Exit Match' button.

"Yes?" [We were quite a good team, wouldn't you say?]"Average." [Pfft, you really can't use the word 'Good' can you?] She chuckled, [But! It was really fun! Everyone else liked you too! Ah-wait, I forgot to tell you! I'm streaming! But the chat really likes you! Plus, I think we make a good team, so, wanna continue to duo?]"Hm…" Luna listened but didn't think much of her words. She didn't particular care if people liked her or not, but, she did have a bit of fun. Plus, Rumi was pretty good at the game…

"Alright, let's duo." She decided. [Yay!! See! I told you, chat! She doesn't hate me!]"No comment." Luna cut in. [… Waaaaah! You bully!] … I leaned back on the couch and stretched my arms wide as I let out a groan. It was about time to make dinner. Luckily, I finished the scarf in time. Luna hadn't come out at all since she got on the computer, she was probably focused on whatever game she was playing. Standing up, I picked up the scarf and smiled.

It was mainly white and had cute pink mouse ears; I even made the tail. Overall, it was definitely my best scarf made yet and the one I've put my full focus into. I wanted to show Luna immediately, so, I happily walked over to the bedroom. Inside, I saw Luna playing a game that I hadn't played before. I think it was one that I installed quite some time ago but never touched. Standing behind her, I curiously watched the screen without disturbing her. Mm? A battle royale? It seems quite interesting.

"You're slow." Luna said, presumably to her teammate. Since she had headphones on, I naturally couldn't hear her teammate's reply. Hehe, looks like Luna's having fun. I smiled, noticing her mood. She suddenly used a skill on her teammate.

"Ah, there was a monster on your shoulder." [Liar!!] I could vaguely hear her teammate's scream. Tsk, tsk, tsk, Luna is such a bully. I shook my head, hiding the smile on my face. Someone has to correct her! … On the other side, Rumi pouted and drank a health potion.

"You're such a meanie! There was no monster on my shoulder!" She shouted, glancing at the chat. - Hehe, Rumi getting bullied is always fun. - No, no, I saw it, there really was a monster on your shoulder! - Rumi (forever bullied) Noticing chat was enjoying the antics, she smiled inwardly but outwardly maintained her wronged expression. [The monster isn't there because I killed it.] - Exactly! - Stop making things hard for your teammate!

"No! No! No! It was never there in the first place!!" She shouted. Her teammate, ElectricTypeMouse, really riffs well. She wondered if Mouse had any prior streaming experience or usually dealt with chaotic people. Either way, it was good for the stream, so Rumi was naturally happy. As she was about to continue to speak, Mouse suddenly shouted, [EEEEK!] [What the!? B-Bin?] Mouse's scared voice came through her headset, and Rumi promptly quieted and listened. [Hehe, what're you bullying your poor teammate for?] Another voice came through the headset, it was a playful, cute-sounding voice. [I-I'm not bullying her!] Mouse replied. [Is that so? So, if I ask your teammate, she'll say that you're not bullying her?] Bin replied. [Of course! I would never bully someone.] - Anyone notice that Mouse's voice got higher pitched and more excited when she started talking to this person? - I noticed, brother. - omg, Mouse's cold and sharp persona shattered instantly. - This is so gap moe! - Is this… Teetee?

[Hello, friend, did this mean Mouse bully you?] Bin asked Rumi. Rumi's eyes brightened as she realized this was the perfect opportunity for revenge.

"Yes! She's been mean to me all day! Please scold her!" Rumi excitedly said. [Heh, as if that'll work.] Mouse scoffed. [Mouse, please apologize to your new friend. Bullying is never appropriate, even if they're a fool.]"That's right-Wait a minute!!?" - Pfft! Even Mouse's friend knows that streamer is a fool! - LOLOLOL a backhanded scolding! - Why do these strangers have so much sense? [Pfft. You're right, making fun of fools is mean.]"Hey!!!" Rumi shouted.
