Virtual Sword God! 106 To Silver

The next day school started as usual for everyone but instead of their mind being focused on the lessons they were taking like they should have been, everyone couldn't stop thinking about the VSW game.

When each of them joined the club they never had expected they could get so far but finally, they were in the quarter-finals. Each of them had gone from being unknown in their school to superstars.

Once lessons for the day had finished, each of the members went to the club room as usual. Each of them was busy sharing the experience that they had with Tick media but what caught their attention most was what Scarlett had to say.

Scarlett had explained to the group about what had happened when Tick media had shown up at Alex's house.

"So it wasn't his decision after all," Ashley said with a sad look on her face.

"Can't we do something about this?" Novis asked, "What if we all go talk to his parents or something."

"I really don't think that would work," Scarlett replied, "From the sounds of it, they wouldn't even let Tick media in the house. I doubt she would even bother speaking to a bunch of kids like us."

The team remained silent for a while as they were trying their best to come up with a solution until eventually, Frank broke the silence.

"I'll do it," Frank said.

"Huh, but how?" Scarlett asked.

"You guys don't have to worry about that, just leave it to me!" Frank pointed at himself proudly.

The team was happy that Frank offered his help but they weren't very hopeful about him being able to do anything.

"Other than that guys, we have to start practicing for the upcoming game," Frank said, "I'm not going to lie to you all, I have a plan to get Alex to join the team again but it's not a 100 percent, I would say it's 70 percent at best but that means we have to start to prepare to play the game without him."

Although each of them felt really bad for Alex, what Frank was saying was right. At the moment, Novis wanted to go through to the next round more than anyone else on the team. After learning about who their opponents would be in the next round after this, a fire was lit in Noivs's belly.

"What the plan then?" Dan asked.

"The first thing we need to do is look at the next team you will be facing." Frank then pressed a button on the controller in his hand to turn on the projector behind him. "Woo, Woo Boys school."

"You wouldn't have a fan club their Dan," Novis said out loud.

Dan had no clue what Novis was talking about, in fact, Dan was even oblivious to the fan club he had at school. He had just thought a lot of the girls liked being nice to him.

"You know there are some boys in his club as well." Scarlett said, "If I was to take a guess, I would say he would be just as popular there."

Suddenly the two girls Scarlett, and Ashley started to blush at the thought of a romance between Dan and another boy.

"Why are girls like this?" Novis thought.

Frank then continued to speak.

"Woo woo is an all-boys school and unlike other schools, they're really not known for anything other than being good at the game."

"What do you mean?" Dan asked.

"It would be better if I showed you all, this is the last match they had."

Frank played the video and the rest of the team watched in silence. The match continued until eventually, a victory screen had appeared.

"So what do you think?" Frank asked.

"It was kinda boring." Novis said, "I mean they were good but it felt like nothing happened."

"Good, Woo woo, is a team that is just simply good at the game. They have no fancy tricks or tactics, no star player, every player just has good knowledge and understanding of the game. If you can see each one of their players won their lane and took the enemy tower. From there, they grouped and took another tower. Before the other team could react, they were already taking the top tower until eventually, they won the game taking the enemies flag."

"So won't this game be easy? we just have to be better than them." Ashley said.

"No your wrong," Scarlett replied, "In reality, this will probably be our hardest game ever."

"Scarlett is correct," Frank said, "You guys simply put, are horrible at the game, you have no use of communication, you don't know how to use your NPC knights or anything. You managed to survive this far all because of Alex. He was able to micromanage and tell you all that to do but I'm sorry to say, I'm not Alex. I don't have confidence in my abilities to tell you all what to do while playing the game myself. Meaning we're just going to have to get better at the game."

Frank then changed the projector to display a different slide he had prepared. On the screen was a round silver medal.

"Does anyone know what this is?"

"Oh, isn't that the medal you get for reaching silver," Ashley said excitedly.

"Correct, our plan is to play the game until we get into silver. The longer we stay in bronze, the worse our bad habits will affect us."

"Wouldn't it be better if we just tried to overpower them?" Dan asked. "I'm pretty confident in our individual skills."

"Okay let me ask you, who do you think is the strongest player on your team," Frank asked.

At the same time, everyone in the room turned to look at Novis. Frank was actually quite surprised at this, he too thought Novis was the strongest but accepted the team to pick Ashley.

"Novis, how about we play a one vs one and see who wins?"
