Chapter 60 What did you say? (1/2)

Alex was having a bit of fun watching the Gaming Club members play their game. The actions they were taking had not much effect in the real world, killing the enemy in this gaming world brings out no complications in the real world. To Alex who had killed, time and time again, he who kept repeating to himself that he needed to become something more than human, as he killed endlessly in the battlefield, felt like the game they were playing was for some reason enjoyable.

Though in his mind Alex was suppose to think this game was something horrible, and this might make some extreme people feel like killing is ok. Still in Alex's opinion this was an ok mindset, in their current world they didn't know when a full out war will happen, so kids desensitization to killing might be good.

Alex had numerous conflicting feelings while watching them play, that he couldn't understand most of them. The enemies in the game were nothing like those in real life, their expression were already lifeless like those of the dead. The enemies didn't beg for mercy their eyes weren't clouded, and the thick smell of blood was not around.

'So this is what the kids my age are playing...' Alex's feelings were getting weirder and weirder. When he was out in the battlefield fighting for his life, trying to be stronger, the kids his age were playing this sort of games, in the safety of their homes.

Rachel and the others weren't watching the game anymore, all of their attention was on Alex right now. For the first time since they met him, Alex was actually having different expressions showing on his face. It was amazing that his face could turn from happy to tragic, in a matter of seconds.

The group couldn't understand what was happening to Alex... The game the Gaming Club members were currently playing, was it truly so captivating that Alex who usually has a poker face on, was now showing these different kinds of expressions?

The game was finally over, and the Gaming Club had barely won. When the members of the Gaming Club removed their headphones, almost all of them stumbled from their chairs, when they saw they were surrounded by unfamiliar people.

Only one person didn't do so, it was a girl with an androgynous looking face, and short hair. Currently she wasn't wearing the school uniform and was wearing a tight fitting black tank top, and skinny jeans. The girl was not as cute as Saya, nor as beautiful as Rachel, but she wasn't exactly ugly either, with her sexy body and cool looks combined, her overall look could rank up there with the top beauties of the school.

She looked at Alex and his group with a bit of irritation shown in the expression of her face. Then one of the guys who fell on his butt, screamed at the group.

”WHO THE F*CK ARE YOU GUYS!?” The man who shouted stood up, his height was pretty average, and his face wasn't anything spectacular either, the only thing that sets him apart from most people was the angry glare he gives, which makes him look like a delinquent.

”We're from the Mercenary Club.” The one who answered the angry looking delinquent was Oliver. Seeing Oliver's powerful looking body, the delinquent wasn't intimidated even a bit, instead he sneered at the group from the Mercenary Club.
