"H-how?" Charlotte spoke disbelievingly at the sight before her.
Even Ren, Michael, and Elizabeth stood with gaping mouths as they gazed forward.
At the score of the air-hockey ga.
One match was basically 7 points, and the first one to reach it won the ga.
Usually, there would be 3 matches in which, the first to win 2 would win.
However, Amon and Alya chose to take it further later.
Only because of one reason.
It was the match score.
27-0.
Disbelief was the only thing that could be seen in the group's eyes.
CLACK!
A smashing sound occurred as their eyes moved back to Amon who smashed the puck once more.
Their eyes moved to Alya who clicked her tongue but fluently adapted to the speed and trajectory of the puck.
But...
At the last mont, the puck's edge hit one side which caused it to completely change its direction.
But even then, Alya was able to react to the change in ti, quickly moving her hand position. She was getting used to his best tric-
Her eyes widened as her mallet missed the puck as the latter swerved in the air, arcing through the board.
And then....
CLUCK!
The sound of the puck falling into the goal was heard and a siren was heard in the surroundings for the umpteenth ti.
It was the victory siren as Amon won another match.
28-0.
Alya's eyes trembled as she saw the score, her knees almost buckling.
It was obvious that she had never suffered such a defeat before.
But...
She gritted her teeth and glared at him.
"One more!"
Amon shrugged.
"Sure."
But then, two weak voices were heard from the side.
"Alya..."
"Alya..."
Alya turned to look at Charlotte and Elizabeth, who stared horrified at her annoyed expression.
"I don't think we should bet this much..."
"Yeah.." Charlotte nodded her head in agreent with Elizabeth.
They could still bet for weeks without the amount of money they had but...
It was obvious that Alya could sit here for a lifeti and could never win against Amon in this.
And they didn't have money for a lifeti.
Alya's eyes widened and she clenched her fists.
"Fine..."
She looked up at Amon.
"We are still at only 1-1, there's still a million of gas to try. Don't smirk at ."
Amon laughed, setting back the mallet on the board.
He didn't mind Alya's attitude.
It wasn't annoying. It was more on the competitive rivalry side since she had never t such a fierce opponent before.
Furthermore, she also looked a little cute with those flushed cheeks.
He looked to his side where Ren had pulled Michael into an arm lock, grinning as he showed the balance in his watch.
"Damn, we are drowning in riches..."
He looked up to Amon.
"I knew my instincts were right. You should trust bro sources, Mikey." He ruffled his hair.
"Let's see, how many cigs can-"
Amon slapped his head.
"I didn't win this for you to waste it away at drugs and smoking."
Ren clicked his tongue.
"Yeah yeah, I understand. My bad man."
"Co, let's go do that light reaction ga now." Alya called him out.
"Alright." Amon looked over to Elizabeth and Charlotte.
Since there were no bets anymore, they could just go and play their own gas.
"I guess and Alya will go try out that ga. You guys can also go around and do whatever
you want."
Elizabeth and Charlotte nodded.
"Alright. What do you want to try Elizabeth?" She asked, looking over.
But she was taken by surprise when she saw a tint of pink on her cheeks.
"Is everything alright?" Charlotte asked.
"I w-want to..." Her trembling voice trailed off in the air.
Charlotte leaned further curiously.
"What are you trying to say Elizabeth?"
"I w-want to try t-that..." She weakly raised her finger, pointing at sothing in the distance.
Everyone's eyes followed her finger, finding a racing ga in the distance.
It had so disks which were shaped in the form of a horse, with antennas protruding out of
them.
That were magnetically attached to the ceiling.
Everyone was familiar with it.
It was horse racing. Even Amon knew it since it was basically rip-off of car racing from his
world.
The only problem was...
The ga itself was a teenagers and toddlers ga.
Silence prevailed in the air as everyone silently stared at the ga before.
"Pff.." A very weak voice ca from Amon's right.
Looking to the right with a horrified gaze, Amon saw Ren barely containing his laughter.
Amon vigorously shook his eyes, holding his breath.
'No, no, no stop bro. Don't-'
Another voice ca from the side and Amon saw Alya, who was also on the verge of breaking
into laughter.
"Pfft..." Even Charlotte and Michael.
Amon shook his head lightly at both of them, tears now coming out of his eyes as he held his
breath with a red face.
'No, don't you fuckers. Stop-'
Unfortunately, it was to no avail as Ren burst out laughing from Amon's side.
"HAHAHAHHAHAHA!" He clutched his stomach.
Seeing him, everyone couldn't hold it in as well.
"HAHAAHAHAHA!" Everyone burst out laughing as they clutched their stomachs and wiped
the tears from their eyes.
Elizabeth looked down, her face red from embarrassnt.
"St-haha..stop you people.." Amon barely said, wanting to roll on the ground from laughing.
At his words, the laughters of everyone finally started to cease. Charlotte was the first to speak up as she put a hand on Elizabeth's shoulder.
"It's totally fine Elizabeth, we can go there." She patted her head.
Elizabeth averted her gaze, her face still beet red from embarrassnt.
"Pfft.." Amon saw Ren almost breaking into a streak of laughter again.
But he quickly drove his elbow into his stomach.
"Stop bro, you are gonna make her cry."
Ren clutched his stomach in pain, but sounds of laughter still ca from his mouth.
"Haha, I know..hahaha but...mannn" He put his head on Amon's shoulder, sharply exhaling.
This man was a complete joker.
"It's totally fine Elizabeth. We were just laughing because of your peculiar choice." Amon
spoke out next and Michael nodded.
"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with horse racing." Michael's voice turned weak at the end as if
he was also restraining a laugh.
Elizabeth finally nodded.
"Yeah, I get it. Thanks, guys." She replied weakly.
Charlotte nodded with a genuine smile, pulling her hand.
"Let's go, and you will both take that ride together." Elizabeth gave into the pull with a happy smile and rushed off.
But as soon as she disappeared, Ren burst out laughing again.
Everyone stared at him weirdly.
'What's up with this guy...'
Though he could understand the laughing point.
Not even for teenagers, that ride was like a total one for children and their fairy tales.
But an 18-year-old wanted to take it.
However, at the sa ti, Amon couldn't bla Elizabeth as well.
Because of those books and the fantasies that she had.
"Why does she even love that ride?"
Amon didn't reply. But Alya did instead.
"It's because of the children's stories she loves. She's a sucker for them. Don't be rude to her
about it though." Alya punched Ren's shoulder.
"Oh..." Ren made an understanding expression.
Alya nodded.
"Yeah, she has those fantasies about being a princess and being on a horse so you need to
understand..."
Michael chid in with an od.
"Yeah, it makes sense now."
"To be honest..." Ren interrupted.
"At her point, they are delusions more than fantasies not gonna lie. She's delululu."
Amon shoved another elbow into Ren.
"That's rude fucker. Don't say it in front of her..."
"That hurts..." Ren clutched his stomach.
Everyone ignored him.
"Anyways, let's go to the ga you were asking for." Amon turned to Alya.
She smirked, regaining her confidence.
"Yeah, we have already wasted enough ti."
"Guess I'll take this idiot then..." Michael turned to Ren and the duo nodded.
With that, the two pairs separated and Amon walked over to the ga she was talking about.
It was simple.
You just had to hit the flashing lights as fast as you could in the pattern that was given by the
system.
"You ready?" Alya asked, smiling at him.
Amon turned to her with a returning smile.
"I think I should ask this question after that last match."
Alya clicked her tongue before forcing back her smile.
"You are gonna lose in this one, trust ."
She turned back to the ga as the starting siren rang off.
But just as the ga started, she heard Amon's confident voice.
"Nah, I'd win."
He smirked as he hit all of the flashing patterns in an instant they had disappeared.
"I'm the strongest."
Hey, Author here.
This is a notice from 15th October, so if non-priv readers ever see this do note that it has
already passed.
Anyways, I know I was supposed to upload 2 chaps per day since my exams had ended on
Sunday.
However, I have so issues with my college now that I don't know when they will settle.
Hopefully, by the end of this week. Until then, I'm sorry but it's going to be 1 chap/per day again.
Thank you for understanding and your support!
