Early in the bathroom, Millie had made up her mind to maintain a certain distance from her best friend's future boyfriend—Alain—and preserve the pure friendship between good bros. She pressed the controller's buttons; Alain simultaneously swiftly dodged, easily avoiding a spider's pounce.
Yeah… Her determination back then was very firm.
Firm for five minutes, then under irresistible factors… it was completely disrupted.
She leaned against Alain's chest, surveying the enemies ahead through her peripheral vision.
His heartbeat, strong from the battle, was like the army's war drums, making Millie's controlled movents perfect and deadly.
Alain's every step landed firmly on the ground, or on the heads of the human-headed spiders.
Enemies were quickly repelled or even killed by his movents, just like the fighting gas she used to play.
Is this the feeling of having a Player? Millie thought.
Her earlier words to Alain were half-true, half-false, indeed containing elents of changing the subject:
In the past, she stayed alone in her room, playing those few gas every day. FPS, RPG, rhythm gas…
Even two-player gas were played by herself.
Millie felt regretful just thinking about it…
How she wished for an interesting player too?
Millie felt her wish seed to be temporarily fulfilled.
This Player approved by her best friend, her good Bro, was fighting alongside her. Like playing a two-player ga together.
Although the way they played together was the terrible form of a princess carry…
Thinking carefully, this Player also seed to have saved her life: killing the human-headed spider that attacked her.
Millie thought of the Crazy Mita incident again.
If Alain hadn't been there back then, letting things develop normally… she definitely wouldn't have been Crazy Mita's match. By then, she really would have been split in half.
Thinking like this, Alain saved her twice.
Bro, slls even nicer now.
"..."
The girl took a deep breath, silently reciting that this was her best friend's Player. And she herself was Alain's bro, good brother.
And the emotions were perfectly reflected onto the controlled ga character—Alain.
At a certain mont, Alain felt his movents, which were primarily defensive, suddenly beco sharp.
Although his hands were holding the soft girl, his legs seed to have beco those of a martial artist, attacking the oncoming human-headed spiders.
Kicking, retreating, whipping kick, side sweep, all happened in Millie's thought.
Under the "infinite stamina" provided by the controller, Alain not only didn't feel tired but fought with increasing vigor.
"You're too strong!"
[10%→15%]
Millie seed focused on the battle situation; her reply was too soft, barely audible like a mosquito.
Seriously, what did she say to make the progress bar increase?
Alain thought, he wasn't free to bully her right now?
"What did you say?" Once again knocking a spider towards the wall, at this point, Alain was only a few steps away from the entrance.
"Hit, 13…"
"?"
[15%→18%]
Alain still didn't hear clearly, his gaze falling on the entrance door. He then rembered that the door hadn't recovered from the spiders breaking it down last ti.
"What did you say? Louder. Wait… the door is broken, can you reset it?"
Mita had control authority over her own room; this was learned from Misha last ti.
He had only seen her switch mirror reflections, lights, etc., never seen repairs.
"Hit…"
Misha in his arms temporarily released the ga controller and snapped her fingers.
With a "snap," the door was restored to its original state.
"You sll so good."
"Bang!"
The girl's voice was drowned out by Alain's knee strike. Once again knocking a human-headed spider behind him. Just hitting the door.
[18%→25%]
Under the power boost from the controller, Alain held Millie with one hand, while the other reached for the doorknob. Pulling hard, he opened it.
With a "click," Alain took a step back, facing the gradually approaching spiders, closing the door without hesitation.
The clamor of 1.75 ceased, and what entered their view returned to darkness.
Then, Alain heard a current sound from above his head.
After the "buzz," light once again descended upon the two, above and below, left and right.
Before he could assess their current location, Millie tugged his sleeve,
"Th-That… put down."
"Okay."
Holding the girl's waist, he supported Millie's thighs, his fingers sinking into the flesh of her thighs; Alain gently placed her on the ground.
And this scene was completely taken in by Millie, making her feel full of complaints.
The gentle action made her feel like a princess, her steps firm and elegant as she stood on the flat ground.
Usually calling each other bro, occasionally bullying … yet so gentle at such tis.
Who treats their bro like this?!
Afterwards, his words almost made the girl stumble while tidying her clothes,
"What did you say to just now? The battle situation was too intense, I didn't hear clearly."
"…Don't know."
She really didn't know! Who would have thought that under those circumstances, she would be dominated by her sisterly thoughts?!
Right now, the overwhelming feeling of regret flooded her mind. Like a sage regretting the actions taken during a berserk state.
"Ah ah ah, so annoying!"
She regretted her own uselessness. Imdiately taking off her hat, bracing her forehead, she started banging her head against the wall. With several "dong, dong, dong" sounds, she finally stopped.
"M-Much better…" Although her forehead hurt a bit, it was better than betraying her best friend.
And Alain noticed Millie was particularly strange today. Like a girl in puberty.
Could it be, she finally realized his fragrance?
Alain pondered for two seconds, instantly rejecting it. Impossible, impossible, bro seems exceptionally firm on this matter.
He still needed to corrupt her over ti… let her truly realize the fragrance of her good brother!
Speaking of which, what did he miss hearing just now? It actually increased the progress bar by 10%, reaching 25%.
[You have successfully obtained the opportunity to use Safety Protection in this mission]
The Security Guard pop-up appeared.
The girl's face was flushed, the red color particularly deep on her forehead. It was unclear if it was from banging her head or so other reason.
Quite cute to look at.
Wait… Now is not the ti to worry about this.
Alain released Millie, his gaze fixed on the present, surveying the surroundings.
"This room, are you familiar with it?"
"..."
Getting the chance to change the subject, Millie looked around, expressing surprise,
"Wait… outside my room shouldn't be here?"
In Alain's view, this was a cramped, square small room, with only pink and white striped walls, a wooden floor, and the two doors in front and behind them.
Naming it by shape: let's call it the "Square Room."
"Let's open the door in front first."
"Okay."
Millie obediently went behind Alain, tightly gripping the controller.
The two vigilantly watched the door ahead.
But the mont Alain opened the door, the ring on his hand changed.
