《Virtual Sword God! 》Chapter 104: Interview 5
Advertisement
Josh had asked Scarlett for more details on why Novis had mentioned this Lucas person but Scarlett didn't really know much more so Lucas had to leave it there.
Josh couldn't stop thinking about why had Novis mentioned Lucas's name. Of course, it was normal for kids to look up to Lucas, after all, he was at a professional level and was the same age as them but Novis had only just started to play the game.
The idea of a rivalry between the two caused the adrenaline to rush straight to Josh's head but of course, he knew this was most likely just a dream.
Before leaving Scarlett's house, her mother had asked for one more photo with all of them in it this time. She immediately uploaded it on to her social media page and wrote about how amazing her daughter was. Although Scarlett found it embarrassing, after hearing about Alex's situation, she couldn't be prouder to have a supportive mother.
When Josh and Cindy got back to the car, Cindy took in a deep breath.
"What is up with this team, it's just story after story. We could write a whole article on just one of these kids." Cindy said.
"Yes and I will be sure to," Josh replied, "If this team keeps on winning and ends up winning the English Championship, then everyone will learn of their story."
The two of them got in the car and only drove a few blocks up the street, until they eventually stopped outside Novis's house. Josh stood outside and looked at the house for a second as if he praying for a big lead in a story.
When Josh and Cindy knocked on the door, to their surprise a young boy who looked to be around 12 years old answered the door.

"Hey, are you here for my bro?" Bill asked.
"I believe so, were here to speak to Novis," Josh replied
"You don't want to do that, he's boring why don't you do a report on me, I'm only 12 yet I'm a diamond player." Bill said, "I'll even let you have the interview on the house before I become famous."
Although Josh was slightly impressed that Bill was a diamond player at his age it still didn't mean much. VSW had an average of around 400 million players online a day. That meant even if Bill was a diamond player and in the top one percent, that there were still 4 million players like him out there.
Pro players were just that special. A lot of people complained about pro players' wages and saying they earnt a ridiculous amount for just playing a game but these were the best in the world. It wasn't easy to become a pro player. It wasn't something that you could just study hard and become good at.
Just then, Novis started to head down the stairs as he heard the door knock a while ago but no one call his name.
"Bill what the hell are you doing!" Novis shouted, "Stop annoying them and get out of here."
Bill kissed at his teeth before scurrying off upstairs but before he did, he had one last word to say to Josh and Cindy. "You will regret turning down the interview of the great billybill remember that ID name."
"What a unique character," Cindy said.
Finally, Josh and Cindy were able to set their eyes on the person they had heard so much about. However, now that they were looking at him the excitement in their hearts seemed to die down a little. Every member they had met before had some sort of charm to them but when looking at Novis they felt he looked kind of ordinary.

"Is it okay if we ask you some questions?" Josh asked.
"Sure, why don't we…" Novis looked to the living room where his mother was too busy watching her favorite tv program, he didn't want to disturb her. Then he looked at the kitchen which was currently a mess because it was Novis day to clean the dishes and he had been putting it off for a while. If the reporters saw that Novis would have died from embarrassment.
That left only one place where Novis didn't mind showing them, which was his bedroom.
"Why don't we head upstairs. " Novis said.
The three of them headed into Novis's room together. Josh and Cindy had done a complete 180 after seeing Novis and wasn't expecting much from him after seeing him but their minds once again completely changed once they had entered his room.
"Feel free to sit on the bed or stand if you like," Novis said but as he turned to look at the other two, he could see their jaws wide open as they stared at something in his room.
"Is that the latest capsule from Goldware corp?" Cindy asked as she rushed over to check the capsule.
"I think so, I'm not really sure, I don't know much about these things," Novis replied.
Novis went to sit on his chair while the other two were admiring the capsule. It brought back memories for Novis of when his brother had first seen the capsule. He had completely forgotten it was something special and he didn't really know the true value of it.
Josh couldn't believe how a regular kid had a professional capsule like this. Josh looked around the mostly bare room. It didn't look like Novis came from a rich family and even if he did, few would still be able to afford something like this. Especially for someone who had just played the game. Judging by Novis's reaction as well, it seemed like he didn't know it's true worth.
"Novis, you don't know why we're so amazed by this do you?" Josh asked. "Do you know how much this thing is worth? This thing alone is probably worth more than your house!"
Novis started to immediately cough as he was choking on his spit. He couldn't believe the words that he had just heard.
"Dam you Tom, why couldn't you have just given me cash instead."
"Tom? You wouldn't happen to be talking about Tom Dane? Who works for Goldware corp are you?"

Vast Asleep
The story of Kingard the Binder in the aftermath of Broken This short story is the epilogue of Broken, the second book of the Chronicles of Mother's Gate series. It’s a great follow-up to the novel, a bonus story that adds extra layers but is set apart from the full-length narrative. Vast Asleep follows the story of Kingard, who finds himself caught in a world called Mother's realm, bathed in glowing light but strangely stuck in place. He encounters his greatson Varyan there, and learns that his experiences are likely dreams. As he grows more accustomed to the loving realm around him, Kingard remembers fear and trepidation about the face of the world, and he loses contact with his companion. This story answers the question, Is Kingard really dead? with a tentative no, and new mysteries brewing. It also raises the question, What's happening while he's awake? and includes an excerpt from the sister story Ride Awake, about Kingard's situation with the Colkh'rak. Praise for Tales of the Known World Bookends: Loved it. The difference between the two stories is great! The difference between the epilogue and prologue is astounding. So much light and love in the first story. You feel safe reading it. Healing. The second, so much darkness, pain and despair. The choice of vocabulary is awesome and makes an impact. And this set of short stories ties the two books together so well. -- Dana V. of Texas ★★★★★
