Novis was confused by what he had just heard George say. How was George going to teach Ashley? Geroge had already said it was impossible for him to reside inside of her."Of course, I"m going to need your help with that," Gorge said as if he knew what Novis was thinking.
Novis suddenly realised that George wanted to use his body to teach Ashley. Originally Novis was going to outright refuse Georges request. It was a weird feeling when Novis gave up his body to one of the spirits. When he did his mind would be sent to the dream world.
Novi could escape this dream world and roam around as a spirit but wouldn"t be able to move far away from his original body. Novis always had this fear that he might not get his body back, luckily Arthur always did but if he didn"t Novis didn"t have a clue how he would get his body back in the first place.
There was also another reason, Novis already was receiving training from Arthur. If he helped George it meant more of his time would be used up to teach Ashley.
Novis then looked over at Scarlett.
He also didn"t want a particular person to get the wrong idea if he was giving Ashley a lot of his attention but then Novis changed his mind. He saw how skilled George was. If George wanted to teach Ashley how to fight then maybe Novis would also be able to learn a thing or two from watching.
Novis then raised his hand.
"Yes Novis, do you want to say something."
"I think I have a suggestion on who Ashley should play as. I think she should play as the warrior Raidum."
"Ah, that might be perfect for her."
Alex quickly went and selected the warrior Raidum, suddenly on screen was a digital version of George.
"What a das.h.i.+ng man, if I do say so myself," George said.
"Raidum a counter hitter. The warrior needs to have a good sense of timing of when to dodge attacks and hit back. The only problem is this warrior is usually difficult for beginners due to the sense of timing with skills." Alex explained.

"I wouldn"t worry about that, Ashley most likely won"t need to use skills. She"s even better than me with a sword."
Alex thought if what Novis was saying was true, then they might have a true chance at this tournament. Alex had seen Novis fight and he currently used a warrior that had no skills. Novis had no reason to lie about Ashley so she must have been as good as Novis said she was.
"So, what are we waiting for, Let"s get playing!" Scarlett said.
"Yes, but before that, we have one thing to discuss."
"What"s that?"
"Everyone"s roles."
Alex then changed the screens slide to display the map of the game.
"We all know there are three lanes in the game, we need to decide what best for everyone because there"s one major problem we don"t have as a team. Do you know what that is?"
Everyone was silent until Scarlett finally replied.
"We don"t have a tank."
Tanks were an important part of the game. They were warriors who were able to take a high amount of damage. It was best to think of them as a s.h.i.+eld for the team. If you had a strong s.h.i.+eld then your damage dealers could do all the work.
"This is why I"ve come up with a new strategy for us in the game. I will take the mid position; this will be the best spot for me to see which side needs supporting and will be able to get a clearer view of the map. In the bottom lane, I want the two girls to work together. Scarlett being the ranged and Ashley being the melee."
Then Alex turned towards Novis and Dan.
"You two have the most important roles in the game. Dan you"re going to play as a supporting character. Your role will be to roam around in the forest area and see if anyone needs any help. I want you to run in quick and fast helping out each lane as best as you can. If anyone is injured you need to use those legs of yours to go back to base and bring us some medical supplies."
"Got it!" Dan replied.
"What this means for you Novis, is you will be at the top on your own. The normal formation that most teams play at the beginning is two top, one mid and two bottoms. This means that you will most of the time have to fight two players. Now Dan will be there to support you sometimes but that isn"t the aim."
Alex then went to put his hand on Novis shoulder.
"I"m going to be relying on your strength for this one, Dan will be there to turn the tides in Mid and bottom making it 3 vs 1 or 2 vs 1. I want you to hold the two at the top for as long as you can."
"Does everyone understand."
Everyone nodded in response and was ready to finally play the game. They all put on their VR headsets and finally logged in as a party together.
After forming a squad, they went online to search for a game. They quickly got matched with another team and the game started to generate around the,
The five of them suddenly appeared at the red base next to their castle.
"Wow, this is amazing!" Ashley shouted while she was swinging her weapon around.
Ashley looked like a female version of George which was a strange sight for Novis to see. He couldn"t help but laugh.
Dan too was punching the air getting used to the feeling of playing in a different body.
"Okay, so everyone member the plan," Alex asked.
George was looking around taking in the virtual world but then his eyes couldn"t help but stare at Scarlett.
"It"s strange, Sarah looks like she"s there but she"s not," George said in a sad voice.
The reason George was staring at Scarlett was because she was playing as the warrior Lilly Lil. It was one of the knights who originally belonged to the dragon knight squad. George understood that the world they had entered was not real but seeing his fellow teammate who he hadn"t seen for years just made him feel so sad.
Novis could feel George"s feelings and it was hurting him too. Arthur never had these same feelings because he couldn"t remember any of the Dragon knight squad.
Then a giant war horn sound played signalling it was time for the game to start. Ten knights sp.a.w.ned and started to head down each lane. Everyone else then followed Alex"s command and marched straight down their respective lane.
Finally, at long last, they were playing their first game as a team.
