Chapter 119 FPS tournament part 5 (1/2)
Since the tournament was about to resume, Emily spoke some final words to her adoring fans. ”My lovely peons! It is time! bare witness to this beautiful form of mine!” Once again the cheers of Emily's fans echoed throughout the building. Once she was done she gave back the mic to the host who had mixed feelings about this whole thing.
The thought that Emily should be the host instead of him flashed his mind every now and then, as he watched her speak to the audience. He noticed that even the former non Emily fans started chanting and cheering for her midway through her speech.Her ability to control the mood of the audience was amazing. It was almost like she was hypnotizing the audience into liking her.
...
When Alex was about to return to the players area, Rachel spoke to him, or more like she ordered him. ”You better not lose.” Alex who looked back and saw Rachel's arms crossed while ordering him, made him remember something from back when they first met. This somehow made Alex smile a bit, before returning to his ever stoic expression.
”Roger that.” After responding to her, Alex headed back to his teammates. There Emily was waiting for him.
”So young master I powered up from being a maid, to being your clubmmate, to now becoming your childhood friend. If this trend continues, wont I end up as your wife?” Emily joked about their current circumstances.
”About that we need to get our stories straight so there wont be any confusion, if we are questioned later.” Alex didn't bother with any of Emily's jokes.
”Don't worry about that young master, just follow my lead and there wont be any mistakes or loopholes in our stories.” Emily giggled for some reason as she said this. Alex who saw her reaction couldn't comprehend it but he didn't bother knowing why she giggled.
”How can I be assured that there wont be any mistakes, if you don't explain to me what kind of backstory you thought off?” Same as Sayaka Alex has bit of trouble talking with this kind of person.
”Don't mind it young master, or should I just call you Alex now.”
”I don't care either way, but you still need to explain to me the backstory of how we met and how we parted. The reuniting part I already explained to Rachel, but the other bits of our supposed backstory haven't been laid out yet.”
”It would be better if I just keep you in the dark, about that. This also part of the plan okay, trust me Alex. Haven't I helped you in numerous occasions already. Aren't we friends, heck right now we are actually childhood friends.” Emily smiled at how good it felt to tease Alex like this.
Alex thought about what Emily said and indeed she had helped him a lot of times, ever since he started going to school. Emily had helped him not only as a maid of the Samaritas but also as a friend and colleague.
”Fine I will trust you. I hope this goes well.” Emily who heard Alex's reply hugged him.Alex was shocked by this sudden move of Emily.
”What are you doing Emily?!”
”Don't worry Alex this is all part of the plan. We're suppose to be childhood friends right? Being this close isn't weird for childhood friends that suddenly get reunited. In fact if we weren't this close we might seem even more suspicious.”
”... I guess what you're saying does make sense.” Emily then started to do some hand signals without Alex's knowledge. She was sure based on how Oliver reacted awhile ago when she was doing various poses, he noticed the hand signals she gave. Which if somone understood the hand signals you would know Emily said I love you to her fans.
When she did this awhile ago, Oliver reacted by averting his gaze trying hard not to blush. It would seem like Oliver was a fan of this anime as well.
With all the above information Emily knew Oliver could understand her hand signals, and he would most probably relay the information to Rachel.
