Love Is So Sweet - Chapter 23

As Edrea was being dragged out of the building she was screaming at the security shouting the name of her father, and how they shouldn’t treat her this way. Even though the guards could pick up that this crazy lady might be a big deal, they didn’t stop dragging her away, since they knew that the person living in the penthouse was an even bigger deal. If you can’t escape offending one side, it was obviously better to offend the weaker side than the stronger side.

Once they escorted Edrea out they took a picture of her, so that they could keep it and label her as someone that is no longer welcomed to enter the hotel.

….

While that was happening Lisa who was at home, was once again unable to concentrate on writing and decided to play a little game on one of her gaming consoles. She was playing an MMORPG where she was a master swordsman. In this MMO her swordsman character was one of the top 10 strongest characters in-game, she was even nicknamed by the other players as the paladin.

Usually, Lisa would only play when she was confused and her stress levels were high, which was most of the time. She played these games as a form of stress relievers, as the feeling of destroying monsters in this virtual world made her feel better.

…

The moment she logged in, players immediately noticed her character. A full set of plus nine mythical armor, with a weapon that was a rare drop given by an event boss, and the glowing red aura that you could only get if you win the PVP tournament. There was only one person that has all this, the chatroom suddenly got busy.

“Isn’t that the Paladin!”

“Look at all those plus nine armor. When can I get something like that?”

“To the one above the moment you get that kind of equipment, I would already be a professional gamer.”

“Mr. Paladin sir, will you party up with me?”

“Pfft, what a noob, don’t you know the paladin is a solo player.”

While everyone was chatting over the paladin, Lisa moved her character and entered a dungeon. The dungeon she picked was one of the hardest and only the most veteran of players would even dare challenge it, and they would do it with a full party of five.

…

Lisa was already familiar with this dungeon since every time she felt confused and stressed, she would go through this dungeon again and again, and every time she enters her clear time improves. Last time she had the fastest clear time, but a group of players decided to challenge and defeat this clear time, and they did. They beat Lisa’s clear time by a whole minute. Lisa’s clear time before was nine minutes, but this group was able to do it in eight.

The people playing the MMO all claimed that this was the best possible time, that it was the limit for this particular dungeon. They claim that the only reason that this time was possible was because of the balance of classes, that it was impossible to achieve solo.

…

The moment Lisa spotted a monster, she immediately projected Edrea’s face onto it. The moment she saw that face, Lisa suddenly screamed.

“Die you b*tch!” With one attack the enemy monster died, and then more came, but Lisa mowed them down while shouting all her anger away.

“Why the hell did you do all that?! What have I ever done to you?! Who are you to threaten me?! I don’t even know you?!”

Lisa who was getting angrier and angrier as she clicked on her control was pressing the buŧŧons even faster than normal.

“Did you really do all that because of Jun?! It’s obvious that you like Jun, but being so overly obsessed with a man is just annoying and creepy! You just ruined my whole day after I just gained a new friend! I mean who does that?!”

Lisa was now faced to face with the boss monster of the dungeon. As she pounded the buŧŧons on her controller she kept on shouting, which frightened her cat, Mia.

“Die you irritating b*tch! Die! Die! Die!” The boss monster was unable to get a hit in, as Lisa was doing a perfect combo, that was canceling most of the Boss monster’s skills. The only time the boss monster got to move was when it unleashed its ultimate attack. Yet it wasn’t as effective as it was supposed to be since Lisa was able to kill the boss monster a few seconds after it used its ulti.

After clearing the dungeon a world announcement was made in-game. “Player [StressedAuthor] has cleared the holy delves dungeon with record time. 00:07:46 congratulations for the momentous feat.”

A huge commotion happened after this announcement was made, but that didn’t affect Lisa as she logged out. She was feeling a bit better now as he wrote in her notebook.

“Edrea Hunt- Antagonist/love rival/possible enemy turn friend character- An irritating rich character type, which was once the fiancée of the Male lead. Has the possibility to become a recurring character or just a single-use character.”
