The Legend Begins

And today was the day of the live broadcast with Rio.

The internet was abuzz with excitement as the worlds best and Japans best were playing together.

The stream was scheduled to start at 9:00 p.m..

Ten minutes before that, I connected the call with Rio.

Can you hear me?

Oh, its okay. Please take care of me today.

Ill do my best.

After a little chatting, it was time to stream.

Me and Rio started streaming.

Rio also has her own channel called Rios Game Live Channel.

The channel has about 350,000 subscribers.

Good evening, today, Im going to play a duo game with a professional gamer, Rio.

The number of simultaneous viewers on my side exceeded 10,000 at once.

This was the highest record for me.

Thank you very much

I hear Rios beautiful voice.

The number of viewers on Rios side also exceeded 7,000.

Im looking forward to the match between the best in Japan and the best in the world!

Rio, you are an angel!

Takamori-san, I envy you to be able to play games with such a pretty girl.

The comments flowed in one after another.

And Im going to start the ProHople right away.

Its been a long time since Ive had a duo.

Where do we get off?

Here?

Rio sticks a pin on the map.

It is a place that is said to be a battleground.

There are many high-rise buildings such as condominiums, and there are many obstacles.

As expected, you understand.

Right!

I couldnt help but to raise the corners of my mouth.

We use the parachute to get down to the roof of the apartment building.

There must be three parties.

I guess so.

I go down to the condo and immediately start looking for weapons.

Any weapons?

Assault rifle.

Oh, great. This ones a shotgun.

From there, he picks up grenades and recovery items.

Footsteps.

Im in this apartment.

Ground floor.

I go downstairs.

I go down the stairs to the first floor and run into the enemy.

Yup. Instant death.

I shot him in the head with my shotgun and he died instantly.

Nice! Thats what Im talking about!

Oh, yeah. Oh, youve got some good stuff.

The other party was given an assault rifle from his supplies.

Takamori-san, do you have a recovery?

I do. Do you want me to give it to you?

No, I had some left over and would have given it to you if you didnt have it.

Thank you. You need this next to you.

Yes, sir.

The sound of gunfire echoed from the apartment next door.

I got some assault rifles, lets pack em up.

Roger that.

Okay, lets go.

We leave the apartment building were in and move to the one next door.

Any enemies?

No, not this way.

Maybe theyre on the roof.

Maybe.

We stop in front of the stairs leading to the roof.

Ill look right.

Then Ill go left.

Okay, lets go!

On my signal, we take off at the same time.

No one over here.

I got him. Ive got him.

Rio said after the gunshot rang out.

Oh, nice!

And the comments flowed unusually fast.

The coordination is amazing.

Rio, you are too strong in close combat.

As expected of the best in Japan and the best in the world!

The number of simultaneous viewers including me and Rio was close to 30,000.
