Chapter 26: Dragonslayer (2/2)
”Oh yeah, I was meant to say she was an archer.”
Paul then came over the two of us and asked, ”Hey I know, why don't you two team up and play a game.”
Novis looked towards Arthur who just shook his head.
”I'm sorry, my coach has told me not to play any games until I get better physically.”
”What an old way of teaching.” Paul said, ”Oh well there's no harm in watching others play.”
While Novis and Scarlett were walking around Noivs began to notice something on their screens. There were currently a lot more people playing the warrior Dragonslayer all of a sudden. He only noticed it because before he hardly saw anyone playing with him. Many people chose popular characters like Mu Samu.
As a man walked past the two of them Novis couldn't help but ask.
”Hey, what's with everyone playing Dragonslayer at the moment?”
”You mean you haven't heard, there's currently a new pro who uses him in ways nobody thought was possible before, he's the new craze at the moment.” The old man said then carried on walking off.
”Perhaps this person's better than you Arthur,” Novis said.
”I would also like to meet this person one day.”
Unknown to both of them, the person they were talking about was Arthur.
Novis stayed with Scarlett for a while and watched her play a few games. She was surprisingly good at using the archer character. Novis had only seen her play team games but she great at supporting characters from the back when in the lane. Novis was actually slightly jealous at how well she had done.
After the training session was over the two of them said their goodbyes and split ways. It was now time for Novis to head to the dojo to further complete his training.
In the next few weeks, Novis trained like a madman he couldn't believe all these people around him who were the same age or younger were so good at the game.
Novis trained During the day and In his dream at night. Arthur had now changed the focus of his training to attacks. The aim was for Novis to do his best to leave a scratch on Arthur. And after a month Novis finally managed to cause a small Scratch.
Novis was currently panting heavily and out of breath. he was in the dream world and had just succeeded in scratching Arthur on the arm.
”Can I finally play the game now?” Novis asked.
”Not just yet, we need to find you some real opponents first.”
Novis was confused by what Arthur meant by real.
