'It's the bitch that is trying to seduce our KING! Kill her! Kill her! How dare she get near the KING!?'
The queen went crazy in Arit's head as it tried to make Arit kill Tina immediately! But Arit was able to calm her down a little while using the technique that Jeanne taught her. Arit took in a deep breath discretely before turning back to Mark.
What the hell happened out there?
Arit asked Mark this question curiously and Mark just shook his head as he dumped Tina in the corner of the room.
"It's a long story. Anyway, I met Luna out in the common area and invited her to play. She's really good at games."
Mark introduced Luna to the small group, but he didn't really need to do that since everyone already knew her. Greg's eyes were wide in shock as he stared at Luna and he turned to his equally shocked wife as they quickly tried to make space for Luna to sit down.
Luna was a legend in the superhuman world, and even though Mark was always treating her like a normal person since he didn't keep up with the news of other superhumans, most of the superhumans and regular humans revered her as a literal goddess!
Luna thanked them and she sat down beside Talia as Talia continued glaring at the screen that showed that she had lost another game.
"That big-breasted bimbo and her stupid big breasts. How is she this good?"
It turns out that Arit has been consistently keeping up with Kelly as they both steamrolled through the other players since the start of the gaming session. Arit might not be used to playing games, but she was extremely smart and that allowed her to learn the mechanics of Blur as well as how to attack the other players and improve her own position in the game very quickly.
It was almost like she had been playing the game all her life.
"Hi, I'm Luna. What's your name?"
Luna spoke up when she noticed that Talia was not going to say anything. Talia turned to her in surprise as she hadn't even seen Luna enter the room. Once she saw Luna, Talia's eyes widened in shock and she leaned back in awe of Luna's beauty. Even Talia couldn't completely resist the intense aura that Luna's beauty carried.
"Beat her, Luna! Beat her ass!"
"Language."
Mark gave Talia a warning look when he heard Talia say "ass," and Talia muttered a quiet apology before Luna chuckled. Mark moved over to sit down, and Luna was ready to make space for him so that he could sit beside her, but Mark already moved toward where Arit was seated and sat down beside her.
Arit smiled at Mark happily, and Mark kissed her softly before he leaned back and told her to do her best.
"I'll be rooting for you."
Luna felt a new surge of competitiveness burning in her chest as her eyes narrowed at the screen. Arit noticed the sudden intensity that Luna was showing, and she didn't allow it to get to her as she also narrowed her eyes at the screen.
They all grabbed their controllers and everyone got down for a new game.
...
"That was awesome!"
Talia cried in excitement while kicking her legs back and forth on the porch of their room overlooking the festival going on below. The four of them were sitting outside the back of the hotel close to their rooms. There was a gentle slope right in front of them that allowed them to see the lights and colors of all the people that were still moving around the festival grounds.
The gaming session had already ended, and their group had separated since it was getting late. It turned out that Greg and his family were staying a few doors down from Mark and Arit, so they went off to their rooms after James fell asleep. Turner carried Tina off with an apology and a promise to pay for the wall that Tina broke. So now it was only the four of them.
Mark thought back to what happened in the gaming session after Luna came, and he couldn't help but agree with Talia that it was very awesome.
Turns out Luna wasn't a neet for nothing. Immediately the game started, everyone in the gaming room couldn't hide their awe as they watched Luna absolutely decimate every other player. It was like Luna's hands was one with the force or something. She knew what button to press, when to turn, when to slow down. Even when to allow herself to die so that she could respawn faster.
Watching her was like watching a master at work.
