Bill was currently standing outside of Novis"s door, he wanted to ask what Novis"s game Id was so perhaps they could play online together in the future. The last time they had played, it was a local match on the same Wifi so there was no need for him to have his brothers ID.As he was just about to knock on the door he could hear his brother shouting.
"What the h.e.l.l, am I really that unlucky, You watched the matches right you have to tell me what I"m doing wrong!"
"What do you mean!"

"Does he have someone in there with him but I can"t hear anyone else?" Bill thought perhaps Scarlett had come around while he was playing a game so he didn"t notice. Bill liked Scarlett a lot. he always wondered why his brother and she hadn"t gotten together. If the two of them was an item then he would have even more people to play with bill thought.
Bill knocked on the door and said. "Hey, Novis is it okay if I come on."
"Yeah go on ahead. "
As Bill entered the room he started to look around but couldn"t see anyone but Novis. "I thought I heard you talking to someone?"
Novis had been talking to Arthur earlier and realised that Bill must have heard him.
"No, I was just complaining to myself, you know me." He said with a nervous smile.
"I came here to ask for your online ID."
"Oh yeah, it"s p.r.o.novis."
There was no need to enter the VR headset to add each other. There were many applications on the phone or computer you could use. This way you could send messages to your friends or keep track of what they were doing whenever you wanted to.
"You do know everyone going to think you"re a smurf with a name like that?" Bill said.
"People kept asking me that, I don"t even know what it means."
Bill went on to explain to Novis what a smurf was and how many pro players or high tier players had second accounts with names like that.
Just as Bill had added Novis he could see Noivs player ID with a little Bronze emblem and the number five next to it.
"You got B5 you must have lost all your games."
Novis avoided eye contact and didn"t say anything.
"You mean you lost all ten games, well at least if you play now you can play with people just like you."
It was getting late for both of them so it was time for them to rest, after all, they both had school to attend the next day still. When Bill returned to his room he was interested in watching the matches that Novis had taken part in.
As long as I was within the last 24 hours and they were on your friendslist you could watch a replay of the games. You can then further save the replay and watch it whenever you want.
Bill went through each of Novis"s games one by one, after watching all ten games he came to the conclusion that Novis was just unlucky. Novis had done badly in the first few games because he was still getting used to the team aspect.
Then Novis started to make some good decision in the middle games but the other players were just better and stronger than his team. For the last few games though it seemed Novis decided to try to listen to his teammates.
This was were his true downfall was, in high tier games it was important to work as a team and communication was important but in low tier games, this would hinder you completely. people who thought they knew what they were doing didn"t, it was best to just make decisions on your own to turn the tide of the game.
Back in Novis"s room, Novis was also looking at the game he played, all he could see in his eyes was the huge skill difference between him and Arthur. he thought that f Arthur had played those games he would have won them all.
"Arthur, how did you get so strong?"
"From a young age, I was forced to fight to put food on the table. Eventually, a knight saw me and said I had potential recruiting me into his army. The knight who recruited me became my teacher, my teacher was obsessed with the sword. His beautiful fighting style had me memorised. He had a dream to create a sword style that was unbeatable sadly he died and pa.s.sed this task on to me. Originally I wanted to just complete the task for my saviour but I guess his obsession became my obsession."
"What about the sword do you know why you were trapped inside it."
Arthur had a sad look on his face before he answered.
"That is a tale for another time."
Novis thought about what Arthur had said it was different in the past were sword fighting was common. He had been forced into it later learning to love it. Novis wanted to say this was the reason why he couldn"t get better but that wasn"t true. At the tournament, his brother and even Lucas all had a strong pa.s.sion for the sword.
Novis couldn"t helo but think did he have the same drive as them to get better. Some people played the game for money, some played for fame and some just for fun wanting it to be their jobs but Novis didn"t have a reason like that. After seeing so many strong opponents play his desire was simple, he just wanted to be strong.
"Arthur, can you teach me how to be strong."
Arthur smiled
"I thought you would never ask."
Arthur could slowly see that Novis was getting interested in the world of swords and fighting but he didn"t want to push him and frighten him away. He had to wait until Novis was ready to ask and wanted to learn on his own. This was the turning point.
