Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 90

Although Sharon Lindt knew that Stanley Batton did not like it when someone talked to him while he was gaming, Sharon could not resist speaking her mind after seeing ‘Seven’.

Stanley gave Sharon a look before he continued fighting against Seven.

Sharon sat on the armrest of his chair while she observed the match earnestly.

“Can I stay here and observe the entire match? After all, this is a battle between the two best players. I know you don’t like it, but it’s just this one time,” Sharon said.

Her eyes were filled with hope and urgency. Sharon was eager to watch Stanley defeat his opponents.

Meanwhile, Stanley was completely focused on playing the game. Despite the intense battle, he kept a calm expression on his face and did not say a word.

Assuming that he silently agreed, Sharon did not leave.

However, Stanley soon died in battle yet again. Like the last time, he was very close to defeating Seven.

“Ahhh. If only you used A on him a moment sooner, he would have died instead,” Sharon said while she looked disappointedly at Seven, who had very little health points remaining.

However, Stanley did not say anything while he silently waited to be revived.

“You have decent skills. Why don’t you play with me on the same team? You’ll obtain points faster that way.” Seven asked in the in-game chat.

“That won’t be necessary.” North answered in reply.

“How could you let go of such a great opportunity? The best player himself has offered to help you progress. How could you refuse him?” Sharon immediately stood up and said.

“…” Stanley silently bought potions and returned to the battlefield.

However, in the moments which followed, Stanley kept getting overpowered. He was always so close to defeating his opponent.

“Get up. Let me play against this god. I think I can do a better job than you,” Sharon said. She could not bear watching the match any longer. Therefore, she tugged at Stanley’s sleeve and tried to take over instead.

“Stop messing around,” Stanley said calmly.

“Hurry up. Otherwise, I’m going to take your mouse away,” Sharon threatened.

Helplessly, Stanley glanced at Sharon before standing up and helping her into his seat.

Stanley knew Sharon all too well. If he did not do as she said, she would really go to great lengths as a form of retaliation. Apart from taking his mouse away, she might even take his monitor away.
