âHuh? It jumped on you from behind?â
âYes. I fell conscious after that. Anyway, how did you see it chewing on my leg? What kind of monster is
it?â
Despite not being afraid of anything, Sabrinaâs voice trembled when she recalled what had happened.
Sasha fell silent as she didnât have an answer too. After all, she too had fainted out of fear.
From what Sabrina is saying, she must have been the one who dropped the birth certificates on the
floor.
In that case, what is that monster? It was relatively big. So why did no one ever notice its existence?
Although she was baffled by it, she had no time to dwell on the question.
After all, she needed to log into the game and find Sebastian.
âOverlord? My oh my. With a handle like that, itâs as if he is worried that no one knows his identity.â
âWho are you talking about?â
Lance suddenly turned around and asked when he saw Sashaâs eyes glued to the computer.
Regaining her senses, Sasha waved him away as it was none of his business.
However, when she finally found Overlord, she was stunned.
Damn it, he is such a high-level player while Iâm just a newbie. How am I going to hook up with
him? Hell, he might not even be bothered with me at all.
Sasha was on the brink of tears.
Lance called out, âSha?â
Finally, Sasha had no choice but to turn to him for advice. âLennie, I have a question. When playing
games, how do newbies hook up with elite player?â
âWhat?â
What kind of question is that?
Why is she asking about games all of a sudden?
After pondering a moment, he took out his phone and sent Sebastian a message: Sebastian, are the
both of you talking?
Sebastian: ?
Lance: Ever since Sha stepped into the office, she did nothing other than look up how to play games.
She even asked me how a newbie links up with an elite player.
After a long silence, Sebastian replied: Whatâs her handle?
Under the pretext of asking Sasha a question, he sneaked a glance on her screen.
Lance: You wonât believe this⦠Pinky Pork
Sebastian: â¦
Unaware that both men were laughing at her expense, Sasha was still racking her brains on how to link
up with an elite.
âYouâre too new to the game. Usually, elites will just ignore you.â
âI know.â Sasha nodded in agreement. âThatâs why Iâm feeling frustrated.â
âPerhaps, you can pretend to be a fan.â
âFan?â
âThatâs right. Elite players have tons of fans who admire them. You can use this as an excuse to add
him. Who knows, you might just get lucky.â
In the end, Lance cooked up an idea for her.
Sasha gulped.
Casually adding a fan?
How can he do that? Wouldnât he have a lot of fans by now? Are they guys or girls?
Instead of being happy that she had a way to link up with him, Sasha became upset instead.
Nevertheless, she added him in the end.
When he approved her request to link up, she was shocked. After all, he was among the top players in
the game.
This is too much. How can he agree to add a girl he doesnât know this quickly?
Is it because he is really unhappy at home?
And thatâs why he is trying to find solace here?
Sasha felt a sting in her heart.
âSha, why are you so quiet all of a sudden? Arenât you supposed to be happy that he has added you?
Whatâs with the glum expression?â
âI have suddenly lost interest.â
âHuh?â
When he saw how her expression had changed drastically, Lance was bewildered.
Meanwhile, on the top floor of Palace Hotel, Sebastian ignored his friends who visited him from afar.
Instead, he found a corner to focus on his game.
Staring at the newbie account that had just added him, Sebastian furrowed his eyebrows when he
didnât see any response.
Sebastian: Whatâs going on, why isnât she doing anything?
Lance: She just asked me if she has become old and haggard.
Sebastian was stumped.
What is that silly woman thinking?
Unable to resist, Sebastian sent her a message.
Overlord: ?
Pinky Pork: Argh! Aaargh!
Sasha finally responded after hearing the notification sound generated by Sebastianâs message.
Damn it! This is so exciting. He has actually sent me a message!
Feeling reinvigorated, the dejection she felt earlier had disappeared.
Pinky Pork: Almighty Overlord, Iâm a fan of yours who admire you a lot. *Heart*
Sebastian was speechless.
What a load of bull.
All Sasha got in reply from the almighty âOverlordâ was an icy row of ellipsis.
Sasha was stumped in response.
It does fit his character though.
Contrary to what Iâm thinking, perhaps he doesnât randomly chat up others. Any ordinary person would
be frightened away with a response like that.
Sashaâs mood began to improve.
