A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

Finally, it was her turn. Alex, watching Ezekiel having fun all by himself before her, is intolerable. It makes her want to rush there and beat Ezekiel by herself to end the fight.

"Mister, let me fight, let me fight, please..." Alex hurriedly walked up to the center before anyone could beat her to it. To let the other onlookers know that she will be the next one to fight. 

The girl walking in front of Akkar was the same girl who saved Ezekiel every time he got knocked away. She must be Ezekiel's friend for her to help him or someone he met in the village earlier and got acquainted with. Since the chances of meeting with an acquaintance at the start are almost impossible. 

Noticing that the girl looked the same age as Ezekiel, Akkar had second thoughts of fighting her. Not only is his next opponent a teenager again, but she is also a woman. It is not that he has any problems with women. In fact, Akkar has very high respect for them because the number one supporter in his streaming life is his mother. 

He was afraid of embarrassing the girl if she lost. Furthermore, he doesn't want to hold back fighting in the duel. "Are you guys sure about this??" 

"I promise; It is fine. I'll bet my 200 silvers that both of you will have a good fig..." Before Ezekiel could even finish what he's saying. He suddenly felt something hard hitting the back of his head. That resulted in him biting his tongue.

"Who!?" Ezekiel looked back to look for the suspect. 

When Ezekiel turned around, he saw Alex squinting her eyes and staring at him with crossed arms. "What did I say about gambling??" 

Ezekiel did not reply as he cried inside. Why the hell did she even beat him up? When all he had done was to help Alex convince Akkar to fight her. 

Seeing how the two of them interact, Akkar thought that the girl must be Ezekiel's girlfriend. "Can you wait for a moment? I want to ask my viewers if they will be fine with you as my opponent." 

"Uhn," Alex nodded as she continued scolding Ezekiel for fighting first before her. 

Akkar then hurriedly opened his streaming channel as he can't wait to see how much his channel grew in a short time. 

The moment Akkar's eyes hovered to the viewer's count, his eyes widened as he gasped in shock. He never expected it to grow this big in just a short amount of time. 

He felt like crying right now. What he is currently looking at is unbelievable. The number of viewers in his stream is 300 times greater than his average viewers three days ago. 

"Ahhhh, hello... hello everyone, welcome to my stream... Uhhh, thank you for the donations earlier... I won't be able to read it right now because I'm currently busy. But I'll have a short super chat reading later to thank you one by one..." Akkar stuttered as he greeted the more than 30 thousand viewers in his channel. Looking at the number of viewers for the first time in his life was nerve-wracking. "Sorry for stuttering everyone, it's just that... for me to reach this far is unbelievable. To the point that it doesn't sink in with me yet."   

"Don't mind, don't mind." 

"It's fine, big bro, we understand!!" 

"You have shown us a marvelous fight for the first day of Parabellum. You definitely deserved the support."

Akkar was overjoyed seeing everyone's barrage of support in the chatbox. "Anyways, enough drama. What do you guys think should I fight Ezekiel's girlfriend??"

"She's not my girlfriend!!"

"He's not my boyfriend!!" 

The both of them growled in unison.

"Cute!!"

"Cute!!"

"Cute!!"

"Cute!!"

The viewers flooded the chatbox, completely neglecting his question. "I mean, friend... girl... friend..." Akkar also found teasing the two of them cute. The two of them must still be in the process of denying their feelings.

"What do you guys think??" Akkar asked once more, seeing everyone getting sidetracked because of his teasing.

"Give the girl a chance."

"Since Ezekiel recommended her, that means she must be strong."

"Take it easy with the girl, big bro, don't make her cry."

"Thank you, everyone I'll chat with you guys later." Seeing that most of the people agreed to fight her. Akkar thanked his viewers first, then faced the two of them.

"Let's fight, miss??" Akkar asked. 

"Alexandria, you can call me Alexandria."

After knowing Alex's name, Akkar called for his guide A.I. to initiate the duel. "Light1049 Initiate a duel, to player Alexandria with 100 silver as the bet." 

"Let's bet 500 silver!!" Alex exclaimed, being, 90% sure that she can win this match.

...

"Aren't these guys rich?"

"Where did they get all of that money? Aren't we all supposed to receive 100 silvers from the start"

"Did they also fought duels like Akkar?"

"Or maybe they found a hidden quest around the village..."

Everyone asked in doubt, hearing of how rich Alex is.

... 

Hearing Alex, betting 500 silver, Ezekiel intensely stared at her. But can only keep his complaints hidden. 

Where the hell did her rule of not excessively gambling disappear to??

"If I do it, I'll get a beating, but if she does it, then I must turn a blind eye." Ezekiel murmured to avoid getting beaten up.

"What did you say??" Alex turned to look at Ezekiel, hearing him muttering something. 

"Nothing, nothing I said, good luck." Even Alex's glares alone are intimidating enough. He won't doubt if one of these days he will get killed by Alex. She won't even think twice about killing him because players revive after quite some time.

Why is the world so unfair!!

"Sorry, but I don't want to lose all of my hard-earned money in just 1 minute. Besides, kids like you should avoid gambling as much as possible. How about we bet 200 silver, the same amount as Ezekiel?"

"Ok..." She mostly bets on things she has a high chance of winning. Too bad Akkar did not accept it. Alex could have bought a lot more stuff if she earned a lot of money. 

"Light1049 Initiate a duel, to player Alexandria with 200 silver as the bet."

[Yes]

Lumiere then asked Alex for confirmation.

[Player Akkar wants to initiate a duel with a bet of 200 silver]

[Do you want to accept?]

"Yes!!"

Then a system announcement rang through the plaza

[A duel between Player Akkar, and Player Alexandria will start in 10 seconds]

[The duel will end if one player is left with 10% health points]

[If no victor has been decided, within one minute and 30 seconds. The duel is considered a draw, and the system will return both player's bets]

[Ready]
