Chapter 9: VSW Cafe (2/2)
”You're looking for someone to play with, right? sure I'll be happy to play you.”
Now that the kid was stood up, Novis could see that the kid was slightly taller than him. He had black shiny shoes that Novis was sure to cost a fortune.
The women tried to interrupt. ”but Lucas, this kid hasn't...”
Novis was too excited and started to speak again.
”It's so lucky to see another kid in here, it's so much better than playing some old geezer.”
”Come on let's go pick one of the desks and have a one on one, My name is Lucas.”
”I'm Novis, fifteen years old you?”
”Oh, we're the same age.”
As the two started to walk off the women called out. ”Hey, wait you haven't paid yet.”
”Crap I forgot to bring some money.” Novis thought to himself.
”It's okay Sophie, I can cover him this time.”
”Thank's Lucas I promise I'll pay you back next time.”
The two of them proceeded to sit down at the desk, before they started Lucas asked, ”So how good are you?”
”Honestly I'm not sure.” After watching others play the game for a while he realised that his brother was the one who was exceptional at the game there probably wasn't a lot of people who were at his level but still didn't know where to place Arthur at.
”Not sure, well would you like to play a solo game or a team game?” Lucas asked.
Novis was confused because he could only see the two of them at the desk how would they play a team game.
”What do you mean? are you going to ask others to join us?”
”You can set the system up so we can play with bots, that way we don't need anyone else.”
”I've only ever played a solo game, so let's just stick with that.”
Lucas was surprised there weren't many who hadn't played team games. There were a few people who would decide to specialize in solo matches but there weren't many.
”A solo game it is then.”
There were many people around who were listening in on the two talking, they were shocked at what they had just heard.
”He's going to play a solo game against Lucas.”
”That kid must be strong.”
The two put on their Vr headsets and entered the game. Once they had entered the game Novis had given control of his body over to Arthur.
Arthur selected the same character as the last time while Lucas had selected A samurai looking character, the character had barely any armour on but had a long sharp katana sword. Novis realised that it was the same character that the number one player in the world used, Justin bell.
”Try not to embarrass me like last time,” Novis said to Arthur.
”Don't worry, now I know the rules, nothing will get in my way.”
