Chapter 9: I want to speak with that Venomous (1/2)
”I have met my first friend in the game, little sister,” After leaving the VR Capsule, Michu tumbled his way towards his sister whose eyes had been glued to the laptop for a good time already.
Her brother's voice pulled the attention, however.
”Welcome back!” Nana called her brother out, then curiously asked, ”It's not hard to find parties in the game, right? Who is the first lucky friend?”
Since Michu became the player with a unique class, Nana obviously labeled the first friend as a lucky person.
But her brother just giggled and told her about the story, ”I got a unique banana with a random stat bonus. But the process had been so weird that I gathered a lot of attention. So many players wanted to snatch away my bananas, but I fought them all after getting the special quest. She was one of the people that helped me.”
Nana blanked, then looked deeply into her brother's eyes.
For many, this would be the beginning of a close relationship that could deepen in various ways.
However, Nana was smarter than Michu and she could see more meaning behind her mother's tears. It was just not the hard work and loans that made her saddened in the past.
Right now, Nana grasped her clothes tightly, bit her lips, and closed her eyes as if holding back something really precious within herself.
Michu tensed from seeing her like that, then asked quietly, ”What's wrong?”
”She must know, big brother!” Nana's voice was opposite. She roared despite the stars already shining above them. ”She must know about your special class! In other words, she wants to use you.”
A little sister immediately proposed to cut that relationship, even now through social media. Even if Michu wasn't a big-shot, he had a high chance to become one. If this woman's schemes turned him into a toy, then all his hard work would be stolen in the future.
The thought of it pained Nana's heart and she shook her brother to wake him up from his stupor.
Michu just awkwardly laughed, ”But she is really helpful and I hadn't felt any bad feelings…”
”You must've seen her melons close!” Nana wasn't that easily convinced.
”No, I haven't! I was actually pulled by her eyes! Those seemed like eyes belonging to a snake!” Michu replied!
”Oh my god!” Nana stood up, her body trembling. Her brother's sixth sense was more than 90% times on the spot and he couldn't be mistaken in this case.
There was a viper behind his back, waiting with its slithering body to snatch all his hard work!
Now, he had just one banana, but in the future, he would have a hundred more! ”She would strike then!”
Michu just ruffled his hair from behind, ”But she is really helpful… Did you know about subclasses, little sister?”
”I just read now…” Nana replied with her eyes on the floor.
”We also went to beat some monsters. It was funny and exciting! I am level six already, you know? Hehe”! Michu proudly puffed his chest out, but Nana blinked her eyes at this statement.
She then sat down, typed something on the keyboard, then turned the laptop screen to her brother's face.
”Look, big brother. You have just begun grinding your level. It's your first day and you are level six? Don't you think there is something suspicious?” Nana asked.
On the screen, Michu could see the guide for the beginners.
[The first ten levels are one of the hardest. You have to kill a lot, way too many monsters with your weak strength. It's because the developers want you to get used to the new world, its dangers, and fighting systems.]
