Chapter 313

Pearl quickly won the game with a score of twelve to zero. As she searched the leaderboard she was

left momentarily stunned.

[Mad Felix]

What the hell was that?

“I’ll take you to meet Felix when we have some free time. He’s always at the club, training and

practicing, and he comes and goes like a shadow. Meeting him might be a bit hard,” Blake explained.

“Sure,” Pearl replied, adding Felix’s contact and sending him a message, [You, the champion of the

leaderboard?]

As expected, Felix quickly added her and responded with a request for a one-on-one match.

Pearl readily accepted. After a brief discussion, they decided to have a one-on-one match using the

hero Charlotte, known for its focus on skill and speed in gestures.

Pearl initiated the game with a swift Starlight attack, catching Felix off guard. Her unique attack stylenovelbin

and strategy set her apart, dealing more damage than usual.

True to form, Pearl won the game with a score of one to zero.

Pearl messaged him, [Do we stop here?]

[No!]

With a sigh, Pearl agreed to another round. This time, she chose the character Elizabeth, while Felix

went with Bernadette. On paper, it seemed impossible for Pearl to win due to the disadvantages of their

character matchup.

However, Pearl had a golden costume for her character in the second round. While her attacks were

less potent than Felix’s, she employed clever movements, took advantage of loopholes, and used

bushes to evade many attacks. She even triggered chain explosions passively, ultimately defeating

him.

Felix’s character lay defeated, and a message appeared on the screen.

[You’re f*cking awesome!]

Pearl made her character stand on the spot and imitate Felix’s character. She also wrote something on

the screen. [I triggered the chain explosions passively, but you became even worse after the attack.]

Felix didn’t find the joke amusing. [Who the hell are you?] He wondered why a grown-up man had such

a feminine name like the one Pearl used: Pearlbelle.

Pearl’s response was simple. [Your cousin.]

(What?]

Pearl was at a loss for words.

After a while, Felix finally made the connection. Staring at the name on his phone, he couldn’t believe it

was Pearl, the cousin he had never met since her return.

Suddenly, he logged off the game.

Pearl was shocked when she saw his character suddenly go dark on the screen. She wondered if he

was frightened by the sudden revelation. Or perhaps his confidence had been shattered by the defeat,

leading him to an emotional breakdown.

It all seemed absurd. Pearl glanced at Blake and, after a long pause, asked, “Is your brother

emotionally fragile?”

The door to the ward swung open before Blake could respond.

Pearl quickly scanned for a name that matched the man who had entered, and she realized it

was Felix. He bore some resemblance to Blake but lacked his cousin’s delicate fierceness,

Felix’s round, cheerful eyes and dimples gave him a youthful appearance.

Pearl had never imagined that Felix would appear even younger than Blake.
