Chapter 86: Yumi's father

"Yumi... Did you make any new connections?" Michu asked.

The more friends, the merrier, so he wanted to see their party growing up! They also had a plan for a guild, didn't they? That was why Michu was looking forward to her words.

Naturally, Venomous had spoken with many players, but they wanted to invite her to their guild or their parties. They were already established people and finding lone gems was easier said than done.

Kaiser was one of the lone players with a unique class, but he had been looking for a guild that would give him all his support. A guild that was already established and with a vault brimmed with resources.

Thus, Venomous didn't even try speaking with him.

She just sent him a message, but that message was bound to be ignored.

"We will have to make friends and close allies through battle and tears," Venomous laughed, then her eyes abruptly turned to the side, "Speaking of battle..." There was their enemy waiting for the final survival game!

Zerze was again alone, his guild people not around him.

They weren't guild members in a sense, but just people who reminded him about his responsibilities and other annoying stuff.

He sat alone and looked lost in thoughts.

"I want to speak with him," Michu said after agreeing with his girlfriend.

"Yes. I will be waiting in the usual place," Yumi replied and left her boyfriend alone.

Their usual place was the restaurant where they watched other survival games together and just enjoyed the food offered by one of the central cities. In this place, they had many dates already as the tournament was long.

It was long for those who failed, however.

Today, Michu also got a call from his friend, Sandra! She would come and watch the games from the center city too. She wanted to see the new and more prestigious lands, but also to meet up with her friends.

Sandra also wanted to help Michu with his sudden rise in popularity.

An edited video from his survival games would be the perfect help in this case and the monke also liked to watch his cool moves with all those edits done by a skilled editor! He was pretty excited to meet her.

Venomous was a little skeptical, but she had taken the first step back to normal life. Though the witch held some special feelings for her boyfriend, those would naturally settle down at some point.

Thus, the witch could become a good friend for Venomous too.

Considering that Sandra knew a little more than your usual friend would, Yumi was curious as well.

Her eyes landed on the blonde woman sitting in the restaurant, "Hi," She called her out and explained Michu's absence.

After Venomous took a seat before Sandra, both of them ordered drinks.

"Congratulations for reaching the final... You know how to make yourself popular, though," Sandra jested about that slap.

Yumi was used to hearing about it and she had a great laugh after reading comments about it, so she chuckled and replied, "I might go for it again just to see another wave of reaction."

"Haha! I guess it's something I can look forward to too... But don't you waste your spotlight by not having a social account?" Sandra probed.

But before Yumi could answer her, another presence appeared in the restaurant.

This presence was backed by various high-level players and all of them paid other players and NPCs to leave the restaurant.

Sandra blinked her blue eyes and looked at the scenario with incredulous eyes, "This man..." His eyes were similar if not the same to the lady before her! Her whole body shuddered and Sandra looked down meekly.

She didn't want to offend anyone and the presence... of such a person was like a spell that brought her trauma and social phobia.

The witch escaped to the corner and the man took her seat.

"It's been a while... Venomous," This man was Yumi's father.

While Sandra went through a shocking change, Venomous' face turned blank and her eyes became vacant. She stared at the man before her without displaying any emotion on her face.

Her hand held the drink that she sporadically brought closer to her lips.

Her father smiled, "I came here to apologize. For all the things I've done, I am sorry." This smile was an apologetic one that touched the strings of the onlookers. Of course, they all felt like this was a family meeting, so High Heaven Guild's people turned around and left the restaurant.

They paid others to leave, but their boss was the one paying for all their achievements in the game!

"As you can see... This game is a big hit... And I am one of the pioneering figures here. It was a good choice," It sounded as if he was convincing himself.

Venomous would love to point it out, but she didn't even want to utter a word to this man. Her silence was both painful and bothersome, so Yumi's father boiled down to the work.

"I have seen your survival game... Spectacular and powerful. You know how to gather attention and you know how to fight. You also don't let others delude you... Join my guild, Yumi." The father said.

He wanted to pay back with the unique class and items, bring the glory to his daughter and let her dominate the game world at the top. He would bless the world by streaming her achievements and both of them would make a bank out of it.

However, Yumi remained silent and her eyes were the same.

"I see... Since you are like this, you want to play the game on your own... So what is the goal that drives you to the top? Is it my guild, perhaps?" The father looked deeply into her eyes and seeing a faint ripple in those eyes, he nodded, "You want to destroy my guild."

Such thoughts were meant to stay hidden, but her father just read her like that!

Venomous didn't like it and sighed, "You aren't my father.... nor I am your daughter. What I want to do is not your business."
