"Let's PK!" "Let's PK!" "Let's PK!"

In the end, it took a lot of convincing for Noah to finally stop Aria's energetic requests. He didn't exactly stop it though; he only postponed it till they were level 20 and they had access to more skills in the ga.
That mont of the 5 of them coming together again, to Noah, it was special.
Despite the fact that it was just a few days in the outside world since he beca stuck inside the ga, he could not help but feel like it was so long already.
But when his friends finally entered the ga to et him, he no longer felt like he was in an alien land, rather, he felt at ho again.
Warstar was his ho after all for the past decade.
Being in the presence of Genevieve's motherly energy and care, Benjamin's goofy energy, Aria's robust energy, and Caleb's taciturn feel, Noah felt at ho again. He didn't know how much he missed their energy till he was away from it.
They took very little ti to get up to date with each other, and then they presented the ultimate question, what was the next step forward?
Having taken his ti to think extensively over it already, Noah answered them. "The next step forward is we level up".
He looked at his friends. "I trust that Genevieve already told all of you my intentions and my situation".
"I don't really care as much about escaping from the ga, what I truly care about is the feeling of being at the top again".
"I want to win again!" His eyes burned with a fiery zeal.
"I want to make it to the World championship and represent England, I want that recognition!" He grinned.
"That's what is more enticing to ".
"And you feel we can do it this ti? Why?" Caleb looked at Noah. "The reality remains the sa, we're ageing veterans of the ga".
Benjamin glared at Caleb for not reading the mont and disrupting Noah's energy and montum but Caleb did not pay attention to it, he continued. "Hot-bloodedness alone and wishful thinking is not enough to win the Warstar RPG Champions league, you of all people should know that". He looked at Noah.
"What do you think are our chances of achieving your ambitious goal?"
Noah hesitated for a big but then he answered. "Pretty high". He looked back at him, smiling.
"How so?" Caleb asked.
"First, I no longer suffer the sa restriction as you guys. Inside here in the ga, playing Warstar have never been easier".
"You'll understand after you see play".
He explained to his friends how his avatar now worked. Instead of typing a keyboard and controlling a mouse to activate skills and control his in-ga avatar, all he needed now was to think.
It was so much more convenient.
Caleb looked at him. "Convenient, but mathematically, I don't think such an improvent is enough to breach the gap between our team and Phoenix Rising's team".
"Besides, Marcus is not here".
"I know," Noah sighed, rubbing his temples. "Having a mathematician as a friend can be a hassle at tis," he chuckled. "But there's another thing". He raised a finger for emphasis.
"I think..., I discovered a way to get another SSS-Rank unique skill".
Caleb's avatar adjusted his glasses, an in-ga accessory that he got as a reward from one of the beginner quests. "Is your thod tested and proven?"
Noah shook his head. "I can't tell but it's related to the powers that are behind my transmigration into the ga, so I can say it's reliable".
"Half-reliable," Caleb corrected seriously. "Explain".
Noah took a deep breath. "When I got my first SSS-Rank unique skill, the unique skill challenge for it was triggered in my very first dungeon run after my avatar entered level 5".
"I was not the only one to get a unique skill, the party mbers who raided the dungeon with also got unique skills, just lower-ranked ones due to their agre contribution in completing the unique challenge".
"But if it was you guys, perhaps, it would have been different".
"Maybe you would have gotten SSS-Rank unique skills just like I did," Noah looked at Caleb.
The fact that the intimidating mathematician didn't interrupt him yet ant that he was not saying rubbish, and that he was driving at sothing.
He continued. "Due to other evidence provided after I was transmigrated, I believe that I will encounter another unique skill challenge at level 20".
"If I perform well, I will most likely get another SSS-Rank unique skill".
"If you guys participate, and you perform well too," Noah spread his arms. "Our whole squad may just beco equipped with at least 1 SSS-Rank unique skill".
"Mathematician, think about it, is that enough to make us win the RPG Champions league again?"
"Theoretically, it increases our chances to 74%, but it's all still a probability".
In that mont, Noah smirked. "When did winning the RPG champions league final ever beco a certainty?"
He grinned. "The uncertainty, the stakes, the competition, those are what makes it exciting, all of it contributes to the allure of fighting for the trophy".
He looked at his friends. "So, are you guys in?"
There was silence for a few seconds.
Aria grinned. "Bring it on!"
Genevieve simply nodded.
Caleb nodded. "Yeah".
They all turned to look at Benjamin.
As if waiting for that mont, the oldest among the group of friends grinned, adjusting and basking in the mont.
If he had unlimited control like Noah's reincarnated avatar, perhaps, he would have patted and adjusted his sleeves at this mont.
He chuckled. "I told them I'd compete, but now I'm ga for anything; they better be ready to console themselves when I win!"
"..."
"La". Aria trolled.
...
Genevieve's Misty Rose, Caleb's Enlightened Fla, and Benjamin's Captain Batman entered the Pork Labyrinth dungeon with a random party of 2 other players to complete their raid party.
As for Noah, his Lord Doom entered Monkey Rainforest dungeon for the first ti with a random party of players too.
Due to his reputation in the new server, it didn't take him long to find a raid party.
They all went leveling.
...
While all that happened inside the ga, sowhere in London...
Nightingale t up with his friends.
