"Oiii!!! Akkar!" Ezekiel shouted.
Akkar got surprised when he turned around to see who is calling for him. "Ezekiel??"
"Can you go with for a mont?" Ezekiel imdiately asked without wasting any second. "It's important..."
Akkar doesn't understand what's going on, but Ezekiel has helped him so much earlier. And he needs to sohow pay it back. "Wait, let tell my friend first."
Akkar then turned to an elegant woman in her late-20s with a cross pendant as her weapon entwined in her hands. Akkar got acquainted with her earlier after he finished fighting his last duel. He got to know her because she is actually one of the few people who supported him for a very long ti. She even has proof of how long she watched him with her mbership status. The mbership shows the exact ti she bought his mbership and supported him. "Can you go on without ? I'll find you later."
"Uhnn, I'll wait for you at the gate. Don't make wait, okay??" The woman softly muttered as if she was seducing Akkar as she started walking away from them.
"You're quite lucky yourself huh, you have found a sweet woman." Ezekiel mumbled as he turned around to return to Alex.
"Aren't you also lucky with Alexandria?? She is so strong no man can probably get close to her beside you." Akkar retorted, feeling so envy in Ezekiel's voice.
"Trust , bro, all I ever received from her is beating..."
"But you still follow her..."
"Well I kind of... got used to her beating..." Ezekiel did not ntion that his day is sohow not complete if he does not receive her beating.
"Are you a masochist or sothing?" Akkar laughed at his answer. He thought that they are really are a cute couple. Even though Ezekiel knew his feelings for her, Alexandria, on the other hand, has no clue what he felt for her.
"What masochist??" Alex asked with curiosity after hearing Akkar ntioning sothing about masochists.
"It's nothing, nothing." Ezekiel brushed off Alex's question. He did not realize that they have actually got close enough for Alex to hear them.
"Sorry..." Akkar whispered at Ezekiel's ears. He felt sorry that Alex almost discovered that he likes getting beaten up.
"Anyway, Granpa Jin... This guy right here will beco an excellent commander for the other guardians." Ezekiel imdiately changed the topic as he presented Akkar to the elder.
"Commander!?" Akkar looked at Ezekiel as if he tricked him.
"Him?" Elder Jin rembered Akkar. After all, he was the first guardian he t and received the strongest armor in the village.
Elder Jin and Akkar spoke with confusion at the sa ti.
"I agree with Ezekiel. I think you will beco a great commander." Alex exclaid supporting Ezekiel's suggestion. She thinks that Ezekiel must have the sa thoughts as her on why Akkar is going to be a good commander.
The first reason she thinks Akkar will be an excellent commander is that he is famous in the village. Almost everyone in here is familiar with him already because of the duel he did earlier. So trust won't be a problem with the other players because of his formidable strength. The following reason is that Akkar is an experienced strear. So he should have at least so experience playing with his viewers. And she can see, based on his interactions with his viewers, how great of a person he is when she fought him. And Ezekiel must have also seen it.
"Trust ; he is going to be excellent," Ezekiel reassured Elder Jin. This way, they won't waste any more ti finding other players that can lead very well. And they will still have so ti to plan out the defense.
At the sa ti, Alex moved closer to Akkar to reassure him. "Your viewers will be delighted if you lead," She whispered to his ears like a devil trying to tempt Akkar to lead them.
Alex's temptation did work. Akkar is very tempted right now to instantly accept their offer. But he is not confident about his ability to lead one thousand people in fighting a goblin army. Even though he experienced leading his viewers in a war on other gas, he plays. He only experienced leading one hundred players against one hundred players. His experience can't compare to the one thousand players against a twenty thousand army of goblins they will fight soon.
"Strears who have the opportunity to beco a commander first day of a virtual reality ga. You can probably only count it with two hands." Alex continued to tempt Akkar as she softly whispers in his ears." It will definitely boost your viewer's count by an unimaginable number.
On the other hand, while Alex tempts Akkar, Ezekiel is also doing his job to convince elder Jin. "Grandpa, you have heard of my fight earlier, right? He is better than at this kind of thing, I promise."
"If you say so, then I don't have a choice. We don't have enough ti to find other replacents." Elder Jin finally gave in to their suggestion.
"Then, young man... Will you be kind enough to guide the other guardians on this battle??" Elder Jin faced Akkar and requested from the bottom of his heart.
Noticing the determined eyes of the elder to trust a stranger. It gave Akkar the courage not to disappoint the elder with his expectations. "I promise... I will not let you down." Akkar thumped his chest in respect for the elder.
Akkar felt deep gratitude to both of them for giving him the opportunity to beco famous in this ga. All he needs to do is not to waste this opportunity and give his everything. He also thought of paying back Alexandria, and Ezekiel tenfold later. They have given him too much already that he never imagined he could achieve.
...
Akkar's viewers flooded the chatbox with amazent and congratulating comnts.
"Congratulations, big bro!!"
"Congratulations, you deserved all of this!!"
"Wow!! A direct perspective of commander in the first ga and the first war of the ga!!"
"This is going to be great."
"I'll call my friends that are watching other strears who are only cannon fooders in the battle. They need to see this!!"
....
"Thank you... but we need to go now. We still need to plan how to defend this place." Elder Jin grabbed Akkar's hand in a rush as he dragged him to a house where Von, the village guard, earlier entered.
"Thank you!! I really an it thank you..." Before Akkar got completely dragged off. He bowed his head to Alex and Ezekiel in gratitude. Then the two n entered the house.
After Akkar and Elder Jin, the house, Alex raised her hand.
Ezekiel also raised his hand.
Then both of them high-fived each other as they uttered. "Success!!"
They were both happy as they have successfully made Akkar walk right into their trap.
