A Girl's Life in a Gaming World

Chapter 34 - Run



Everyone deemed the words of Ezekiel's father as an exaggeration. How can a 6-year-old kid even be considered as a scientist in the first place? How much more calling the clueless kid a mad scientist. Everyone just took it as a father's joke to his son, but only Alex knew that it's not an exaggeration at all.

Ezekiel may not be someone who can have perfect scores in exams, remember everything he reads, and learn things instantaneously. Ezekiel even forgets the important things if he isn't paying attention and doesn't have an interest in them. But the thing that portrays Ezekiel as a mad scientist by his father. Is that every time he thought of something crazy, he did the craziest things anyone could imagine.

​​

Ezekiel will do anything to know if his theory was either right or wrong. It almost reached the point where he was thinking of risking someone's life. But the good thing is that Alex and Ezekiel's father were somehow able to stop Ezekiel's obsession when he became more matured.

But unfortunately Ezekiel's wild experiments resurfaced and even got a little worse once the first virtual reality arrived. Ezekiel has clarified to Alex and his father that he won't do anything that risks anyone's life at all. He still has some self-control. It's just that there is no way he can resist the opportunity to experiment with things he couldn't do in the real world.

...

As the fight became more intense as time went by, Akkar's viewers were also rising rapidly. It went up so fast until Akkar's number of viewers hit twenty-five thousand.

Akkar's older viewers commented among each other that once Akkar got the chance to check his streaming platform, he will surely pass out in shock. He would never have dreamt of having this many viewers in his entire life.

"Big bro Akkar will surely die in joy with this one."

"Even if he loses this fight, it is still all worth it."

"Our brother is now finally going to become a big-time streamer."

Anyone who has been watching Akkar stream for almost a year will instantly say that he is a very friendly streamer despite having a terrifying appearance for a 28-year-old man. Akkar will treat all of his viewers as his friends and make sure that everyone is enjoying what they are watching.

The long-time viewers that became Akkar's friend were so happy that he is finally being noticed. After constantly streaming for almost three years.

...

"Your recovery is faster than I expected. You really do have a good skill right there." Ezekiel exclaimed, staring at the fiery eyes of Akkar.

With how hard Ezekiel smacked Akkar's head, he thought that it would have taken him at least a minute to recover. He once tried smashing his head in a rock a couple of times on Guardian, and it took him a few minutes before he recovered.

Ezekiel now had thought of another theory. One of them is how defense stats work in the game. Akkar's faster recovery must be related to his skill that increases his defense stats. Even though his head is not covered with any armor, defense stats must have reduced the impact and damage he received by a small amount.

The other one is the recovery function of Parabellum is way more advanced than Guardian. But he still needs to try more things out before he can conclude.

"How generous of you to let your opponent recover. Sorry, but I cannot be as generous as you." Akkar raised his weapon confidently. He lost 17 health in that clash, but it just gave him the confidence he needs to keep fighting. He is a berserker, a berserker that will stand up and charge with all his strength until his last breath. Akkar thought that it's the end for him when he lost consciousness, but when it came to willpower alone, he had persevered a tougher challenge than this one.

"I think you've misunderstood something. I'm still not done studying. I won't let my lab rat die, ending my experiment earlier. After all, it's quite hard to find a tough guinea pig like you." Ezekiel's voice flowed out without a hint of stuttering.

Seeing the damage his opponent was receiving became less, and less, Ezekiel felt envious.

The crowd immediately let out a heated response.

"This fucker..."

"Oi, brat, aren't you a bit too arrogant!!"

"Big bro Akkar, end this kid's life and teach him his lessons."

Alex then shook his head. Ezekiel's bad habit of getting carried away in his experiment is now showing.

"Then don't mind me if I end this right now," Akkar exclaimed as he pushed his feet off the ground, charging through his opponent.

"Fast..." What an amazing skill. Ezekiel then prepared his weapon for his opponent.

In the blink of an eye, Akkar arrived in front of Ezekiel again. He then swung his weapon in an arc, attacking Ezekiel's side.

Seeing the great ax coming to his side, Ezekiel moved his staff to his side, barely blocking the attack. He wasn't able to dodge or deflect it this time because of how fast and how strong the attack was.

BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Akkar used pure brute strength alone to send off Ezekiel, flying through the crowds once more. But this time, the attack was a lot stronger, making Ezekiel come crashing through the crowd.

Coincidentally Ezekiel came crashing on Alex's place.

"Watch out!!"

Seeing Ezekiel flying through him like a baseball, Alex jumped through the air and caught Ezekiel's back, stopping him on its track.

"Are you ok?" Alex asked concernedly after they landed on the ground.

"Heal!!"

[- 35]

"Sh*t, this guy is not joking at all." Ezekiel cursed, seeing the damage he received. He could have killed him in one strike if he wasn't able to block that attack.

He thought that the damage increase should have a limit of 100%, but Akkar proved him wrong with that one swing.

"If you still have the time to curse around like that, then you must be fine." Alex then pushed Ezekiel back to the ring.

"Run," Before sending him off, Alex whispered him a piece of advice.
