16 Chapter 16 - Meeting at Ray’s Bar Part 1 (2/2)
His looks were definitely extraordinarily ugly. Gu Fei barely began describing Sword Demon's appearance, yet Ray had already pointed to a particular direction, ”Room 3.” As a bar opened by a player, the place did not look antiquated unlike the system-operated taverns. Ray had even used wooden poles to partition some parts of the bar into several private rooms, making the place looked just like a typical modern bar in reality.
”Thanks!” Gu Fei said.
”You're welcome. Call me if you need anything,” Ray's affable smile was truly worthy of his reputation.
”Ray!” Gu Fei wagged his finger and said, ”I knew it! Your real name must be Ray Feng2, right?”
”Very funny,” Ray laughed.
Gu Fei smiled as he took his leave and made his way toward Room 3.
The wooden poles functioning as walls of the room did not have enough space for a door, so a piece of cloth was used as a doorway curtain instead. Gu Fei grabbed the cloth and shook it slightly, as if he was knocking on a door.
”Come in!” someone inside said.
As Gu Fei lifted the cloth to enter, he saw the person sitting right across the entrance.
One word: pretty.
Two words: very beautiful.
Three words: too f*cking attractive.
Four words: How was this possible?
Five words: That was actually a man?
The person was seated next to Sword Demon, facing the entrance. Gu Fei would not have believed he was a man if it wasn't for that flat chest and prominent Adam's apple.
The person had an arm around Sword Demon's shoulders. He raised the other arm to point at Gu Fei when he entered, ”That the guy?”
Sword Demon nodded as he rushed toward Gu Fei, ”You're here!”
Gu Fei nodded, ”Yup.”
That Adonis pointed toward the empty seat across him and said, ”Have a seat!”
Gu Fei only noticed the other three persons after he had sat down. Plain, simple, and common faces. Compared to the beauty-and-the-beast contrast between Sword Demon and that person, the three looked so ordinary that Gu Fei had difficulty identifying their uniqueness.
”Let me introduce everyone,” Sword Demon said to Gu Fei. Starting from the person beside Gu Fei, ”War Without Wounds! He's a Warrior.”
War Without Wounds was a middle-aged uncle who was very well-built, giving off a very mature and dependable aura. ”Hello!” He extended his arm as he continued to introduce himself, ”I love warriors, so I always choose to be a Warrior when I play online games.”
”And he would always be the game's number 1 Warrior,” Sword Demon added.
”Hello!” Gu Fei removed his straw hat with his left hand as his right hand quickly shook the proffered hand at him. He immediately realized that the Warrior had quite a strong grip. It was expected, given how Warriors would put a majority of their stat points into Strength. Gu Fei was a pure-Agility Mage, so that handshake felt as if his bones had shattered. Thankfully he did not make things difficult for Gu Fei, loosening his grip after a while, as it was clearly done out of habit. Gu Fei could only smile wryly. This was the first time in his life that a handshake had left him in an unfavorable position.
”This is Brother Assist. His online games' job class is always randomly chosen. This time he's a Knight. Brother Assist excels in gathering information; he usually notices details that others may have overlooked,” Sword Demon introduced the second person.
”Brother Assist? You don't look that old,” Gu Fei extended his hand once more.
”Sorry! My name's actually You Ge. Sorry if you feel cheated,” Brother Assist scratched his head embarrassedly, before reaching over to shake Gu Fei's hand. He had a friendly smile and was clearly a very easy-going person.
”I see,” Gu Fei smiled.
”This is Royal God Call. He excels as a Mage, yet he chose to be an Archer this time,” Sword Demon introduced the third person. The person was not too old and his face was unsmiling. He exuded the air of teenage arrogance and disdain. He was most likely a student.
”Hello!” Gu Fei extended his hand with a more serious attitude than he had with the previous two. Gu Fei knew that the best way to interact with kids was to not treat them as children; Gu Fei needed to make him feel regarded.
Royal God Call was apparently a petty person as he unexpectedly did not even bother to extend his hand. He merely snorted with disdain, ”Hmph.”
This nasty piece of sh*t, disregarding his elders despite his youth! Gu Fei silently rebuked.
”This guy's the last one! Young Master Han; he's my old online gaming partner. His job class has always been a Priest,” Sword Demon finally introduced the one next to him.
