28 Pika-Pika~! (2/2)
How should I respond to this without attracting suspicion….
”A weaker version of Tyrant, I had a chance to see him fight once and he's really fast.”
”Oh, I saw him too, I bet he could beat me in less than twenty moves.”
Nice. He bought it!
”I bet you could beat him though, Sis! You've got a lot stronger this past week.”
...I lost to him in three moves...but I'm not going to mention that.
I have some pride left, gotta keep my dignity in front of my little sibling!
Suddenly, Pika came out of her mindless muttering and bombarded me with an avalanche of questions.
”Yuri, what's your Sapphire username? Are you on the leaderboards? I bet you are, you're so amazing after all! Most likely in the top five at least…...maybe Lynx? Or maybe Tomoe...no that won't make sense…...definitely Lynx then. Judging on your solo fighting style and the way your arm muscles are built, you know how to use a bow and dual wield daggers! You're really cool!”
COUGH. TOKU YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS SCARIER THAN YOU. WE REALLY NEED SOMEONE NORMAL FOR ONCE.
I gotta find a way out of this somehow…..think...come on…..
”Sorry to disappoint you, uh, Pika-san. I do play a lot of Sapphire, but I'm not into leveling at all. My username is actually Yuka in the game, just an average nobody.”
”Just Pika is fine! Toku, is what she says true?” She asked while quizzically turning her head towards Toku for confirmation.
”Yup. I've even friended her in-game and messaged her, what she says is true. I don't really understand it myself but…...maybe she just doesn't care much about her level.”
It's true that I don't care about my level at all, but I'm still on the leaderboards…...I wonder why this happens to me? Is it because of the impenetrable protagonist armor? It is, isn't it?
”Oh, that's too bad then. We can friend each other though, my username is Pika in the game as well! Anyways, it's nice to meet you, Yuri! My full name is Katayo Pikachi, please take care of me!”
Pikachu female version!?!?
I gotta dig deeper into this.
”It's nice to meet you. Are you by chance a lightning mage in Sapphire?”
”Yeah, bingo! How'd you guess?” She cheered while giving me an enthusiastic thumbs up.
”Uh, I was just lucky.”
…...P-pikachu…..that's just so cute.
I need to try and get some yellow clothes for her in the game somehow, I wonder if NPCs can make them. I should ask Abest next time I log in.
”Well then, Sis, Pika and I will go greet father and big bro. I think they got back just now, feel free to continue training, we won't disturb you any longer. Pika will be staying for dinner so we can all go out and eat today.”
Toku…...I wish you'll get married and that I'll get Pika as a little sister. Although I might be getting ahead of myself, I can still hope. She's just so cute.
”Alright then, I'll see you both later. I'll wrap up my training and maybe jump into Sapphire, notify me when we're gonna head out okay?”
With a cool nod of his head, Toku herded Pika out of the dojo and started walking back towards the house while jokingly bickering with her.
Hm…...well that didn't go as I expected, but I guess this is fine as well. They're a good couple.
But honestly…..Pika described Lynx as some type overpowered mysterious assassin or something like a hitman. Is it really how other players see me as?
I guess I am getting a bit carried away in the game though.
I swear if this keeps on going, soon I'm going to start wearing an eye-patch over my left eye while yelling about sealing my left arm.
Or even worse, I'll go down the ninja route and start throwing knives at people while dressed in full black and disappearing with silent footsteps into the forest.
…
Wait a second, I'm already doing that.
…
Time to do a quick check on my mental state and sanity levels.
