"Did I say this is something of a disgrace to you?"

The question managed to create silence. Both Yuki and Miura themselves were silent for a while. Miura also didn't know what was going on in Yuki's mind, and Miura did understand why Yuki asked such a thing and then Yuki was silent.

Yes, Miura, who knows about her in this game world? None. Even Miura himself shuts himself up as The Legend Master which no one even knows may even hate him. How could he not? Many of the well-known guilds were eager to invite him and make Miura a team. But Miura always flatly refused and decided to go solo. This is the problem and it is something no one can think about either. So arrogant, arrogant, and so on are attached to him and make Miura a player who is not only feared, but also the most hated player in this game. This is the problem, this is something that has never even been thought of, a thing that will never be good at all.

"You protected me during an attack at level 70 of the game, actually at that time I was in hibernation because I was in the process of retrieving one of the precious stones to perfect my weapon. If at that time I died from a weapon or someone else's power, then I would have to wait another two months and take care of everything from scratch. Of course, this will be very detrimental, I've spent a lot of energy and a lot of time on it. And your arrival really helped me a lot, so I guess for a helper like you what's wrong if I introduce myself? You are a good person, we also met twice in real life. I think this is enough to make me venture to tell you who I am. You know, actually, sometimes I feel like playing alone is pretty tiring too. This is the unthinkable, this is the unimaginable. Something that is very difficult to predict even for anyone. And I'm sorry, if my confession actually makes it a burden for you."

Yuki was still silent, she remembered the incident where her guild tried to destroy The Legend Master at that time. No wonder The Legend Master at that time was silent and did not put up any resistance at all. So, her position at that time was The Legend Master had disabled all her skills and also the weapons she had because she wanted to get one of the rare items from the game. A thing that was really unexpected and more than that, Yuki had inadvertently helped The Legend Master to complete her mission. Yuki understands why The Legend Master gave her a rare stone, a stone that all players in this game are so interested in. Yuki then smiled as well.

"You've even given me a very rare gift. You know, the gift can perfect my skills as well as the weapons I have, so many players who use the same avatar as me and the same weapon as me dream of having that rare stone, but you gave it to me for free. I think that being alone is more than enough as a thank you for the help that was completely unintentional. Then how come you have to give me this risky information, Kenzi?"

"Miura, just call me Miura."

"However—"

"We're the same age, I guess it won't be a problem if you call me by my first name. It would be very strange if you called me Kenzi, as if I was talking to a Granny," Miura said at last. Yuki was made to smile behind the monitor screen. Yes, Yuki thought Miura was a rigid male figure, a shy male figure and so on. Who would have thought that Miura was actually a man who was quite funny and also interesting to talk to.

"Then, call me Yuki. I guess this is fair enough, isn't it, Miura?"

"Yeah, fine,"

"So why are you giving me this risky information? Your true identity is being hunted by many people and even finding you is a competition and can be used as a bet with a fairly high value. With you revealing your true identity to me, are you not afraid that I will spread your true identity to everyone, Miura?" Yuki asked again.

For a moment, the dashboard of the private conversation between Yuki and Miura was silent. Yuki's last message went unanswered and didn't appear if Miura was typing or something. Yuki was worried, she was afraid that she would offend Miura. Really, a thing that was completely unimaginable even if she ever made Miura so offended.

Yuki was about to type another message, then he quickly deleted it after he saw that Miura was typing something for him.

"If you want to reveal my identity, that's fine. I also don't actually have the desire and lust to hide from anyone. It's just, I like doing things myself, I like it when my privacy will remain mine. I know that you are a good person and will forever be a good person, and I believe you can make wise decisions about this too, Yuki."

Yuki was silent again, this was the first time she heard something that was quite flattering. A belief and a thing that no one could ever imagine. There was a man who believed in her so much, it was an immeasurable thing, an unthinkable thing even until then.

"You are quite wise in taking care of everything, thank you, Miura."

"By the way, your guild is going to have a match. Why don't you come along, Yuki? Aren't you one of the top players there? A core player that no one else can replace?"

Yuki was silent again, either flattery or mockery. Even if there were new players who entered the guild, Yuki didn't know, so how could Yuki be considered as one of the important players in her guild.

"So, you already know that it was my guild that attacked you in The Last Wolf? You didn't think I was their spy and you didn't think I would betray you, did you?" asked Yuki. Miura fell silent again. "You know about the matter of new players joining the guild, it was quite a shock for me. If only I didn't log in to the game, how would I know about this matter? They didn't tell me at all, and to be honest I was quite surprised by that."
