Waking up, Max felt pretty great. He was sleeping on the couch with a blanket covering his body. Lily was in the kitchen. A sweet sll filled the air and he looked up.
"Morning, Lily. Did you cook sothing?"
"Ah, morning, Max." Lily stopped what she did and turned to him. "Un, I am cooking a light porridge and egg. Don't worry, I have learned how to cook them. It's almost done, so just wait there."
"Do you need help?" Max asked, standing up. He folded the blanket and went to the kitchen out of worry.
"No need to. And I guarantee the taste will be good." She said, pumping her hands. "The sick person needs to rest and wait."
"Alright then. I will wait."
Max returned to the living room and waited patiently. He used the ti to buy new gas, ones which didn't use brain when playing. Those gas had no story mode. Instead, he could play with his viewers in the room he created from the start like an arcade ga.
This kind of ga was famous among strears. Low effort, cheap, and everything had already been unlocked at the start.
'A racing ga is good. This Assassin Run is perfect. I will play this healing ga for today and not think about complicated quests or stories. The new quest from the system will appear tomorrow. Sohow, I am a bit anxious about it. The quest beca harder and harder.'
Lily prepared the dish onto a bowl and plate before putting all of them on a tray and brought them to the table. The dish, from the visual aspect, looked appealing. The sll was also great.
Max looked forward to eating them and gulped.
"Enjoy."
Lily smiled as she put the bowl and the plate in front of him. There was also a set for her, and she ate them quietly, glancing at Max to see his reaction.
With a lot of expectation, he scooped the porridge first and tasted it. A rich flavor spread into his mouth. His eyes widened in pleasant surprise.
"This is really good!"
Hearing that, Lily bead with a large smile. She looked pretty happy.

The breakfast ended pretty satisfyingly. Lily went to Zaza-P's studio again to record and prepare for the concert. Next week, Max would join in practice for their duet.
But that was still next week.
"Alright."
Max entered the VR capsule and logged into his Lobby. Yesterday was a full rest day without him logging in. The sensation was pretty calming and made him feel at ho.
The parkour obstacle and the large tree looked pretty. The wreckage was where he enjoyed himself.
"Hmm hmm~"
Humming Lily's song, he prepared his stream. He changed the title, loading screen, description, and everything. He also made a post on his Strike account to announce to the viewers he would stream this morning.
[Assassin Run! Let's play together for real now. #Multiplayer #Viral #Racing]
With that set up, Max started the livestream and logged into the ga. He arrived at a private lobby that looked like an ancient house. His clothes were all dark, covering from his head to his shoes, leaving only his eyes visible to see.
His na floated on top of his head to show who he was.
In this large house, there were many facilities such as a dining area and obstacle area. The limit of this Lobby was 20 people, the number of players who could join a round of ga at once.
For now, Max censored his room's number and changed his livestream screen.
[Viewers: 17,261]
Surprisingly, many people showed up. Maybe it was because they knew they could play with him together today. Good ones. He made a good decision.
"Greetings, viewers. Good day to you. I have rested enough to run again today. And I invite you to run with today. Why? This is just a fun ga.
Let's kil– have fun and have a fair competition."
— Hey, he just said kill, no? It's not my imagination, right? Tell it's not
— It's not. He did say kill. He rested for a day and returned with more energy than before lol
— Breeze! I miss you, buddy! Call my na!
— Will you play with us? Hey, let's play together!
Many people were impatient to play together. Max was amused by their reaction and crossed his arms.
"No need to rush, viewers. Everyone… No, not everyone. At least I will play or host 10 tis. My condition is still not perfect, so I can't promise I will join the ga after that and will only act as a spectator. But, I will make sure at least 100 of you enter this ga with ."
If he wanted everyone to enter with him, the ga probably wouldn't finish until next week. He would need to hold 900 gas. That was just impossible.
"Lucky ones, fast ones, prepare yourself. I will undo the curse of the censor in 3…"
— Hey, he's getting into his role pretty quickly
— Shiet! I haven't logged into the ga yet.
— Ba-dump… Ba-dump
— My mouth is ready to speak! CO!
— My hands are itching. I have 300 WPM, don't try to fight against .
"2…1… Now!"
As he shouted, he revealed the Lobby's code.
Exactly as he did that, black shadows began to appear one by one in the Lobby. So on the first floor, so on the second floor. Those shadows were players. Soon, the shadow disappeared and revealed their figures which dressed similarly to Max.
Not even 3 seconds passed and the Lobby was full.
— Nooo!
— T-This can't be. My mouth is lost?!
— The power of those 20 is terrifying…
— We lost, but there will be the next chance.
Indeed, not all chances had been wasted yet. Max looked at the players who just arrived and nodded.
"I welco you to my humble abode!" He spread his arms like an arrogant master as he eyed them, "Let's run together, my comrades. May the best assassin win."
"It's Breeze!"
"He's acting strange but I am playing with Breeze! Yahoo!"
"Mom! I am on TV! I an, I am on Breeze's livestream!"
"Hmph! It's ti to show who the best runner is."
Everyone's reactions were different, but all of them were pretty excited to play. Read exclusive adventures at empire
"Alright then. Let the best assassin win."
Pressing the start, a dice appeared in the middle of the house and dropped to the ground. It bounced a few tis before stopping, showing a map on its surface. The map looked like a ruin, and the ti was golden hour.
[Map chosen!]
[Temple Ruins – Sunset]
After the ga's announcent, everybody was enveloped by shadow and teleported to the map.
