Chapter 155 A Bitter Realisation

Violeta's lowered her gaze. "Esports tournament?"

She recalled vaguely seeing a pop-up ad for the tournament on the main page when she logged into the game,

but it hadn't caught her attention at the time.

In her previous life, such competitions were out of her reach. Violeta was too busy working multiple jobs to even

think about entering tournaments. Thus, the idea of this competition left little impression on her back then.

Zoren chimed in, "The champion gets a boost from the official gplatform and gets to shoot a live-action

gMV."

Violeta's eyes widened in excitement.

After hearing Zoren's words, Violeta suddenly remembered.

In her previous life, the lead female in that MV was Hattie.

Before Hattie debuted, she had gained online popularity as a self-proclaimed gaddict girl.

Violeta realised the only decent player on the opposing team at her latest gwas their jungler, and she had

overheard from the voice chat that it was Hattie herself.

She truly had sskills, but not enough to be unbeatable.

Violeta declared firmly, "I'm joining the tournament!"

This was an opportunity she wasn't going to let slip by. If Hattie wanted it, Violeta wanted it even more.

Only a stronger one could obtain it, and Violeta had no intention of backing down.

Jasper said, "You'll need a team. Do you have any teammates?"

Violeta paused. "Not really."

She had a few friends; there were a few players from the national leaderboard she had teamed up with two years

ago, but she hadn't logged in for two years. They'd probably forgotten about her by now. Zoren advised, "Then

let's form a team."

Liam glanced at Zoren, "Are you joining too?"

Zoren shrugged. "I'm not interested in the tournament itself, but if wants to join, I'll help her out."

With the four of them, they'd have a full team of five. It seemed perfect.

Jasper pointed out, "Hade can't play. He's a novice."

Zoren suggested, "He can play support. I'll be the mage, Jas, you take the marksman, Liam, you go as roamer,

and can play jungler." Hayden squinted. "Who made you the boss?"

Jasper agreed, "Yeah, you even assigned roles to us. You're so amazing."

Liam added, "Your assignment doesn't count."

Zoren stammered, "Uh, well... Vio, what do you think?"

Violeta hesitated for a while before speaking, "If Hayden can't play, we'd be carrying dead weight. How are we

supposed to win with that?"

"Let's discuss this when school starts. | need to get my rhythm back first."

After speaking, she turned around and walked into the esports room holding her water cup, leaving behind a

sense of resolve and determination. The lounge fell silent.

Jasper couldn't hold back his laughter, and soon the entire group erupted in a chorus of laughter. "Hahahahaha!

Hade got dissed by Vio! Hahaha, she called you a dead weight! Hahaha!"

Hayden's cold gaze swept over them. "Is that so funny? Did | say | wanted to join?"

"It's not funny at all. | just recalled other funny things, that's all. Hade, just pretend | wasn't laughing."

Violeta returned to the esports room and saw another invite message pop up on the screen.

She walked over, placed her water cup down and took a seat.

She accepted the invitation after putting on her headphones and activating the voice changer.

"What's up? Ready to callDaddy?"

Zelena's voice cthrough, "We invited you to test your skills! Don't get cocky, or you might lose your teeth!"

Violeta responded, "Let's solo then. Have your best player face me. If | win, all three of you calldaddy."

"Can't we skip the 'Daddy' thing?"

"Nope."

There was a moment of silence.

"Don't you see we all have premium skins?" Zelena hinted that they were rich women.

"So?" Violeta retorted. "Did you gild them with gold?"

This guy's words are infuriating!

Hattie bit back her anger. If it weren't for recruiting him to join in the tournament with them, she would have

lashed out long ago.

Well, this is just an online gand we don't even know each other. Even if we lost and called him Daddy, it

won't matter.

Hattie said, "We accept your terms but with one condition. If you win, you have to join our team for the college

tournament. Your gaming region is Quinston. The scity as us." Violeta's eyes twinkled with amusement, and

she agreed readily, "Sure, sounds good."

"Alright then, I'll solo against you."

They quickly set up a room for an intense solo match.

As Violeta expected, Hattie was skilled, but not skilful enough to win.

Violeta used her as a practice to get her rhythm back, playing on a 3v3 map. Unsurprisingly, Violeta won.

"You lose in less than ten minutes. Wow, you're that bad.

"With skills like yours, you think you can compete? Tsk... Alright, calldaddy.

"You lost the game, now keep your promise."

Violeta waited for them to call her "daddy".

She had turned on the recording application on her phone and waited for them. Zelena hadn't expected "I'm Your

Sixth Uncle" to beat Hattie in a solo match.
