~GERMINATION I: THE BLUE DOT PLAYER~

Saino Utsukushi, the wealthiest young Chief Executive Officer in the S City of the human world. He manages his own company which has expertise in online games. Being the owner, he excels in everything.

And at such a young age, he already gets what he wants but life sometimes is not on his side. Like at this moment...

"What's going on?! Our number one player is in a difficult situation because of the...noob???"

o.0?

0.0

I, the author, was in the crowd and watching the game from the bleachers. I can see how surprised Saino is but his opponent wasn't around. The play is actually for fun because Saino and his company glorify their 11th anniversary. To celebrate it, they decided to hold a game with the number one player, they will pick an opponent randomly even if it's at the venue or just playing online. Unfortunately, they choose a rare one. A newbie with a talent.

"It's my first time seeing Mr. Utsukushi's fight an intense one."

50% are left and he will surely be defeated by the newcomer. Never been a hustle for him to play his own games, he knows the mechanics, knows all of the strategies, techniques, and how to end it easily, however, he was deceived by his own knowledge.

He cannot read the style of his opponent, for the very first time in his 20 years of experience. He starts to play online games when he was 6, the year in which his mother died for an unknown reason.

"Look out! He's quick!"

Normally, he didn't show off so any battle was easy peasy for him and he always finishes it faster than he could do but looking down and not knowing his enemy are his big mistakes. Although he runs a background check every time he will go to war web-based yet he didn't expect that the noob will make him retreat, will he? Still, his supporters kept on cheering him up. They are scared for him to lose.

While on the other hand, the noob, who was supposed to be beaten up earlier was still alive and lively. People's eyes can't deny it. Shocked is also written on all of their faces. Who would have thought, it will turn this way?

In spite of that, his ignominy was buried when his excitement whip up after all he doesn't feel unease. In fact, it makes him thrilled.

"Rare opponent, indeed." - he thought at the same time the mc announces the winner.

Finally, he won. The noob.

~After the event~

{Saino Utsukushi's point of view}

"Leefalle! Find him right now! He will be our new player!" - I can't waste such a valuable talent, whoever he is.

"Yes, sir!"

*knock*knock*

"Get in."

"Mr. Utsukushi, the DAY-O-Wy from France sent a gift as an apology for not attending the party last night." - Darwin, owner of the developmental game officers of DAY-O-Wy, hates being in a crowd after all. He's one of my buddies from childhood and thankfully we're both successful.

"You may put it in here. Thank you." - he bows down and comes out. Let's see what Darwin gives this time. If it is not something I want, I won't forgive him.

*unwrapped*

"Oh?"

What's this?! Seriously???

*knock*knock*

"Come in."

"Sir, we found the person who beats you." - what? Beats me?! Tch! Did they really have to elaborate on it?

-_-

"Ehem, where is he?"

"Unfortunately, he's not interested in our proposal with him."

"What?" - Impossible! Many people are hungry to climb in my company especially players of the S City: Shi Gemu. How come, he declined?! Is it just because he finds it boring to be my subordinate after all he defeated me. Hmmm...how good he is?

"Did he point out some special treatment?"

"No, sir. Honestly, he didn't even listen to us. He was just after the food."

"After the Food?"

"Yes, we invited him several times but he refused. Not until we invited him to eat." - o.0?

"And?"

"He did listen but after he finishes the food, he bids his farewell." – ahhh…I see.

"Alright. Don't be bothered by someone whose head is so high." - I don't seem to like his attitude from what Leefalle described.

"But sir..."

"Forget it. Gather everyone, we will have a meeting after 5 minutes." - Let's just focus on the upcoming tournament.

"Yes, sir!"

...

~After the meeting~

...

"So, after all, I have to recruit him." - sighed.

I wonder why Ruge wants him. Hmmm...

Does he know that newbie? If so then he's not an ordinary human.

"Leefalle, give me his number." - I have to invite him personally.

"Sir?"

"You heard me!" - Ruge is one of the biggest sponsors of my company, and one of his requests is that beginner. So troublesome!

.....

*Ring*Ring*

...

"Who?"

Eh?

"Ehem, may I know who I am speaking with?"

"Are you kidding me?" – is he the right person? His voice…

"???"

"You're the one who called me and you do not know who you are calling?"

🤨

"I'm just trying to be sure!"

"Ehem."

"Tsk! What do you need?"

"What a grumpy!"

Sighed.

"Tsk!"

*Beep*Beep*

~call ended~

o.0?

-_-

I don't like that brat! Tch!

"Leefalle, give me his address."

"Ha? Sir?"

*Stare*

Sighed…

"What's the deep breath for?"

"Nothing sir."

"Tch. People nowadays are hard to understand."

Well, people are difficult, to begin with.

"Look who's talking!"

"I heard you, Leefalle!"

"I don't want to hear that from you, sir." – murmurs.

This guy! Tch! Nevermind. No one is capable to understand me either. Only her.

~looking at the address Leefalle just handed~

"Go back to your work! No lunch for you today!"

"You're being unreasonable. 😓"

*About to walk out*

"Leefalle! Where are you going?"

"Ha? Sir? Didn't you just tell me to go back to my desk?"

"Call Mr. Austin, tell him to ready the car."

"Why Sir? Where are we going?"

"We're going to discipline a little brat."

"Aren't you being childish?" - he murmured. He loves it! Tch!

*glared*

"I'll ready the car."

Yet he knows to run away.
