-Elizabeth's POV-
I took a look at the comnt section of the ongoing stream. Waves and waves of toxic comnts from millions of viewers just pass through in a blink of an eye. So fast that I couldn't even read their profile nas fully. Most of them have the sa context though and many users just repeatedly type the sa disparaging words.
What a trash team
Lost to wan KeKw
F*** lost my money because of this shit team
Washed-up players should just retire!
How can you even lose like this to girls lol
WTF NG gt dstroyed. Wata trash team xoxoxo
Good luck in div 2 kekl
They dont even belong to div 2, they belong in the dumpster
"I don't understand. How can they be so cruel? When team NG were winning their gas, all the comnts were full of praise and congratulations. But now that they are losing gas, when they need encouragent the most, all these people type are nasty comnts instead." I whined at the injustice.
"Yeah I agree, and what is wrong with losing to won? Those guys are so gender-biased." Lenna fud.
"Just let it be and just don't read the comnts. So people are just like that cause they want sothing to feel good about themselves at the cost of others' misfortune. They drag others down to feel superior to them. What utter garbage of human beings." Kat replied testily.
This is shocking. I've never seen Kat this angry before. She always seems so understanding and forgiving. Though I quite agree with her, those comnts are getting a bit over the top.
"T-That's quite philosophic of you Katherine, I didn't know you could say stuff like that ahahha," Lenna said placatingly in order to calm her down.
As if recognizing Lenna's attempt, Kat composed herself.
"Sobody just told it to once. I didn't understand it at first, but now I think I realize what he ant." Kat replied.
"He seems like an intelligent person." I prodded.
"He is," She nodded.
"That is why he beca our captain," Kat murmured sothing I didn't quite hear.
I wanted to pry but she seed to not want to talk about it.
"So, shall we stop watching then?" Lenna asked cheerfully to lighten the mood.
"No, wait, not just yet! Just close the comnt session, I want to see the winner's interview." I hurriedly denied it.
"There is an interview?" Kat asked.
"There is, only for the winners though since interviewing the losers of the match would be quite awkward.....I hope it's Yuna or Murasa they interview." I voiced out.
"Yuna is their captain right?" Lenna inquired.
"U-huh. Eun Ae Seong, ign Yuna 20 years old. A Korean child actress that beca a strear/pro gar and recently got the position of team Atelier's new captain even though she is their youngest mber. She's my inspiration on why I started streaming and also has the largest fanbase out of all the CoA strears. My dream is to have as many viewers as her in my live streams in the future." I said as a proper fangirl would.
".......I see, I'm sure you'll achieve it soday. Especially after we win the u20 tourney, you'll get closer to your dream." Kat replied encouragingly.
"Hahaha, it's fine if we don't win as long as we have fun during the event."
To be quite honest, our chance of winning the whole tournant is minuscule at best, that is if we even get past the elimination. There are too many good teams out there that we don't even know of. I'll still do my best to get our team as far as I can though.
"Ohh it's starting!" Lenna exclaid.
"Here is what you've been waiting for, we have the opportunity to interview who you guys voted as the MVP of the match, Ms. Aoi Yamamoto." Lun hyped.
"Ohh they actually got her to interview, She rarely makes an appearance for things like this."
"Ms. Aoi, thank you so much for giving us your ti for the interview."
"It is my pleasure." a softspoken voice ca from the screen.
She has a little bit of a Japanese accent but her English is fluent even in her streams. I even wonder sotis if the team Atelier requires its players to be proficient in English.
"First question, so of the staff told that they had a replay in slow-mo of the 1st ga match when you defeated Tactical, is it true you did four slashes that ti instead of three?" Dr.Manhunt, the other panelist voiced his inquiry.
"Whoa you're right Kat! do your eyes actually have a slow-mo feature?" Lenna asked shockingly.
"Just a lucky guess." Kat downplayed the praise.
It's unreal that she saw through it, I made the right choice in recruiting her for the team, she's extrely talented. She just needs good gear and a max-level character and she might beco unstoppable. It is such a sha she chose to play support though, I would have loved to spar with her if she had just created a DPS character so we could both improve.
"Yes, that is correct. I have been training and improving a lot in preparation for this year's AC tournant." Aoi answered with determination.
"Hooh, it's as if three instant slashes aren't enough, now it's four. I dread to be on the receiving end of that combo." Dr.Manhunt shuddered to prove his point.
"Next question. With this loss, team NG will undoubtedly go to division 2 and fail to participate in the upcoming 4th Andartha cup, does your team regret beating them this series?" Lun inquired.
"I am not sure about my other teammates but I regret nothing. We are all rivals in the end and I always do my best no matter who the opponent is." Aoi stated bluntly.
"As expected from Murasa. I have another question for you, a lot of players are comparing you to Yuusha as you are considered by most pro players and fans alike as currently the best female player in CoA. What are your thoughts on it, Ms. Aoi?" Rainstorm, the 3rd panelist asked.
"I think it's an honor to be considered her equal," she replied curtly.
"Follow-up question, many fans are also debating who will win in a 1v1 against you two, what do you think of your odds if you two were to have a match?" Rainstorm pressed.
"I will win, I cannot fathom her dodging my slashes, even if she is still in her pri three years ago," she answered confidently.
"Oh ho! A straightforward answer as always. One of the reasons why we love to have you on interviews like this." Lun chid.
"A lot of Yuusha's die-hard fans would not agree with that though," I mumbled.
"Who do you guys think will win if they do fight 1v1?" Lenna asked curiously.
"It's hard to tell, But I'm a big Yuusha fan so I'll vote for her." I let out my biased thoughts.
"How bout you Katherine, who do you think will win?" Lenna asked Kat.
"I honestly have no idea...... But I would love to see them battle one day." Kat grinned in anticipation.
I saw a glint in her eyes as she talked. Almost as if she's really anticipating Yuusha and Murasa's match. I an who wouldn't though, it would be epic. One who can dodge anything and another whose attacks cannot be dodged. Like the unstoppable force paradox. Sadly, I'm probably just getting my hopes up, Yuusha is already retired so it may never happen in this lifeti.
"Thank you so much for answering all our questions, Ms. Aoi. Ladies and gentlen for those of you watching the live stream, give it up for Murasa 'The Unseen Blade'!." Lun hyped.
"You are very welco," she answered promptly before the screen switched back to the panel signaling the end of the interview.
"Sooo, what should we do next it is still too early." Lenna inquired.
I'm going to grind my new character in CoA." Kat voiced her thoughts.
I can kinda understand her. I'm itching to play CoA now after witnessing those highly skilled players fight each other. I want to play with Kat too, I haven't even added her to my in-ga friend list yet.
"You're power leveling now right? Want to boost you." I asked her.
She seed to ponder for a mont before answering.
"No thanks. The mobs at my current level are not that strong enough to require any assistance. I'm also going to focus on the main quests to earn extra XP."
"Ohh, okay. That's true I guess." I said dejectedly.
".......But you can help grind after I get past level 50 where grinding is more efficient with party mbers. I need to level up quickly so we can practice for the tournant."
"Sure leave it to , I'll boost you till level 95!" I enthusiastically said
After eating snacks and Lenna trying to convince Kat (And getting rejected many tis) for us to sleep over at her apartnt, we said our farewell to Kat and her mother. After that, Lenna and I went straight to our respective houses while I pondered what our future in the upcoming tournant would bring.
