Standing not far off from her, Joel was dressed casually in a shirt, looking like he was out on a break. Even without his uniform, he still looked sharp like a sword which was placed in a scabbard and the military temperament he had was impossible to hide.

Joel grinned, not expecting to run into her today. Unlike that day during the competition when she wore an eye-catching red dress, she was now wearing a casual white-colored top with wide sleeves paired with jeans and canvas sneakers. On her delicate face, she had very light makeup on and overall, she looked very clean and refreshing.

The sight of her made his heart skip.

During the tournament, Sophia had seen Joel from afar and knew that he was the one in charge of security for that day. However, that day was too rushed, and she had left with the others to a party right after, so she didn’t make it in time to greet him. Furthermore, the fact that Michael disliked him also made her a little wary about going over to say hi that day.

But today, she paced over to him jauntily and asked, “General, what are you doing here?”

Without his military uniform, Joel maintained his usual smart aura, but his smile seemed more gentle as the edges of his lips curled upward slightly and he replied, “I have a gathering with my comrades in the afternoon.” Then, he recalled the day of the competition and added, “You did well that day!”

Since he was in charge of security, he had to stay outside of the venue to take care of various situations and couldn’t watch Sophia on the spot, but he had watched the livestream.

The scene was unforgettable; a lady in red calmly controlling a virtual character in golden armor to defeat the foreign team until they had to make a run for it. The atmosphere was so thrilling that even Joel, who was outside, could feel it simply by watching the broadcast.

The world of the young is burning with life! he had thought.

When he first met Sophia, she was a young girl who wasn’t very striking. If he hadn’t heard that she was bought by Michael, he probably wouldn’t have taken a second look at her.

 

Back then, he didn’t understand why a person like Michael would need to resort to buying a woman, but looking at her now, it was probably because Michael was a better judge of a person than he was.

Hearing the general’s compliment, Sophia was so embarrassed that she scratched her head and grinned. “I just got lucky. It was mainly because Stanley is a capable leader. I was just an errand runner who could hit a few enemies.”

 

She had just finished speaking when Joel smiled again. The genes of the Fletchers were indeed top of the class. There was the elegant idol like Michael, the young punk like Stanley and also Joel, who was oozing with righteousness and military persona.
