Word soon got around that Sirius was now in possession of a godly weapon from Scary Phoenix. Countless players in the game came and asked Sophia to sell it to them, but she turned them down coldly.

Beast popped up as well. He kept sending her private messages which read, ‘F*ck, Daddy. You just got a stroke of luck—my dad simply gave his Hundred-Mile Streamers to you!’

Sirius233 replied haughtily, ‘Yeah, he lent it to me for a few days so that I can play with it.’

Sirius’s relationship with Beast had improved a little these days, and they often played together. Switching the conversation to another subject, Beast texted ingratiatingly, ‘Daddy, why don’t you lend the Hundred-Mile Streamers to me for a few days so that I can play with it as well?’

Sirius233 replied, ‘Don’t even think about it!’

Beast texted back, ‘You’re my Daddy—even my dad has said so. How could you do this to me?!’

Sirius replied, ‘This weapon is my master’s!’

Sophia had wanted to key in the word ‘hubby,’ but the damn character input software automatically changed it to ‘master’ due to its predictive text feature. She quickly corrected herself, ‘It’s a typo—I didn’t mean to write “master.” It’s “Master!”’

In the end, the message was sent with the word ‘master’ still being used.

Beast replied, ‘You’re so disgusting. I know that he’s your master, so you don’t have to repeat that to me so many times. If you don’t want to lend the weapon to me, just forget that I even asked!’

 

Sirius was silent this time.

Meanwhile, Michael managed to get Stanley to leave after pleading with him in every way he could. It wasn’t until he logged into the game and gave Stanley another godly weapon that was second only to the Hundred-Mile Streamers that the latter’s anger was finally appeased.

 

Stanley thought his uncle did so out of his care for him. Much to his dismay, he logged into the game to discover that everyone in the team had received a godly weapon from Scary Phoenix as well.

Their team was probably considered first-class in Cethos, but it was unknown how well they would fare on the international level. Cethos’s esports teams could not be compared with overseas ones since the country started relatively late on esports in the first place. Therefore, they had to strengthen themselves as quickly as possible to increase their likelihood of winning the championship.
