Lucifer's Descendant System

"Yes, I started playing Valorwatch yesterday. Why?" Noah asked in surprise. Firstly, he was surprised that she knew he played Valorwatch, and secondly he didn't know why she was asking him about it.

Hearing Noah's answer, Maggy didn't know whether to be happy or astonished. She started to think about all the things her brother had done for her in the last few years, and watching him give up the things he did that amused him little by little affected her a lot.

Her brother had to become an adult at a young age and had matured very quickly. Even though he always tried to look happy when he came to see her, when she asked about his life, Maggy always noticed that Noah did nothing personally to amuse himself. Probably because of the large amount of responsibilities he had to assume, he had ended up becoming almost a robot when he was not with her.

Maggy, seeing Noah now happier when giving the gift to her, had already had her day made several times better, not even because of the mouse, but from observing her brother feeling emotions again.

Now when she remembered the PigMan live stream she watched, she saw that the devil named Lucifer was having a great time playing with him. During the several minutes of the match, PigMan and Lucifer practically ignored the rest of the players and just focused on each other. PigMan kept saying that he was feeling very excited to fight this devil, while during the few frames that the devil appeared on the screen between his teleports, people noticed that those red lips could no longer contain the smile on his face as well.

This was even marked in the chat, when a group of people started to call him "The Smiling Devil", which made Maggy laugh a little and join in the fun.

Now when she found out that her brother, who was practically limiting his own happiness in life to be able to take care of her, was actually that "Smiling Devil", Maggy was no longer able to control herself and let some tears well up from her eyes.

Noah had not realized that throughout the years he had given up his own happiness and was becoming a robot. It was only natural to him that he would stop doing silly things so he could get money and take care of Maggy. He always thought that her happiness was his happiness, and that the rest didn't matter anymore.

But yesterday when playing Valorwatch, Noah had been happy again, something he hadn't felt in a long time. It was a very strange feeling for someone who hadn't done anything fun for years, but despite being strange, Noah liked it and wanted more. He felt more like playing Valorwatch not only to help Carlos in the championship he had talked about, but also because the game itself was fun.

The one thing he didn't expect was for Maggy to start crying. After he confirmed that he was playing Valorwatch, her eyes lost focus for a few seconds and soon after he noticed small tears trickling down from them.

This threw Noah into despair, since Maggy was the only reason for him to still live. He thought that playing Valorwatch had hurt her and quickly stated, "I'm going to stop; I'm not going to play anymore; please don't cry..."

This, on the other hand, scared Maggy more than Noah could have imagined, since when he said he wouldn't play anymore, she screamed at a volume he never heard his sister scream before, "PLEASE DON'T STOP PLAYING!"

Maggy couldn't bear to be Noah's reason for not doing something that would amuse him once again. Finally, her brother was feeling good again, and thinking that he would stop doing it for her sake caused the guilt in the little girl's chest to plague her even more.

The tears in her eyes that were once only lightly welling in her eyes now began to flow with steady streaks. She couldn't control herself anymore and even started to sob.

Noah, seeing this, became even more desperate. He had no idea what to do and just followed his own instincts when he sat on the hospital bed with her and kept stroking her head and saying it in a low voice. "It's okay. I'm going to keep playing... It's okay..."

It took Maggy at least ten minutes to calm down and enjoy Noah's embrace. She didn't want to continue to be the reason for her brother's unhappiness, and from what she had already realized, he hadn't noticed that he practically didn't have a life anymore.

So, knowing that her brother had not noticed that he was becoming a robot, she decided to take on this responsibility for him.

'If he can't see for himself that he needs happiness in his life, I will do it for him. I will help him to get happiness back,' Maggy thought with conviction as she was hugged by Noah, and in order to do what she envisioned, Maggy already had an idea of what to do.

"Brother, is your character on Valorwatch called Lucifer?" Maggy asked with an innocent look. Noah didn't notice, but behind those cute big, innocent-looking eyes was a little devil putting a plan into action. But luckily, that plan was something that would only benefit Noah, whom she planned to make conquer the pleasures of life again.

Noah was surprised that Maggy knew the name of his character since he hadn't even told Carlos yet. But he did not suspect anything of his little sister, since, for him, she was just very cute and innocent. "Yes, it's the name I use. How did you know?"

After he said that, Maggy realized that he had no idea that he had become somewhat famous. Without saying anything, she took out her cell phone and opened the recording that was saved from PigMan's live stream before then showing it to him.

At first, Noah looked at the phone screen a little confused. But immediately afterwards, this confusion turned into surprise when he saw a familiar explosion of flames appear in front of the camera of whoever was playing the game and from the explosion, a red devil holding a black dagger appeared, trying to kill that person.

As the last time Noah watched something like that was while he was still at school, it took him a few seconds to figure out what was going on, until when he noticed and his eyes widened as he stared at the phone screen with even more surprise.

"He... Was he recording? Did you see me playing with him? Is this MyTube?" Noah started bombarding Maggy with questions, wanting to understand in detail what was going on.

When she told him that she was watching a live stream by a streamer called PigMan, and that he had broadcast their match live to thousands of people, Noah's mouth fell open.

At first he was like that because he didn't imagine that he was actually playing against a famous person. That little pig he fought was actually a famous person?! This explained why that little pig was clearly several times more powerful than the other players he played against. From what Maggy said, that little pig was actually a Blessed Rank B!

And what surprised him secondly was when Maggy started to explain to him how much that piggy earned just from playing against him.

Maggy told Noah that just that day, PigMan had made over $4,000. That alone was enough shock to keep Noah from closing his mouth. He didn't think someone could make so much money while just playing video games. At that moment, he regretted once again having gotten rid of those things in his life.

According to what Maggy had said to him, PigMan was not even one of the most followed streamers out there; he was just one of the great streamers on their planet, Zeta, but was not even among the top 50. Even so, just while playing Valorwatch, he was earning more money a day than a Blessed Rank D who invaded Fortresses. But because Blessed people didn't invade Fortresses every day, whereas PigMan made live streams every day, his monthly salary was almost as high as the salary of a Blessed Rank C.

He was a Blessed Rank B who earned almost as much as a Blessed Rank C without having to take chances with his life in Fortresses. But according to what Maggy said, live streaming was just a hobby for him, since he also managed to invade Rank A Fortresses because of the high level of control and power he had with his Blessing. The money from live streams was just a bonus from how well he played.

Maggy said that the top 5 streamers on the planet Zeta earned almost as much as a Blessed Rank B just by doing live streams. It was worth remembering that the higher the rank of the Fortress, the difficulty increased several times more. So, being able to receive the salary of a Blessed Rank B without having to take chances and die as a blessed Rank B was a privilege only for a few.

But the best advantage for Noah was that, according to what Maggy said, he got a lot of attention on PigMan's live stream. According to her, his Blessing was very fun to watch, which made many other viewers interested in him and wanting to see him playing from his perspective.

This conversation planted a seed in Noah's head, a thought that would change Noah's life in the future, but for now it was just an idea he had. 'Maybe I should start doing live streams playing Valorwatch?' he thought to himself.
