My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 51

In Bayside University, Sophia had lunch with Nathan after finishing her lectures in the morning. He only had two lectures, so he was playing alone for the rest of his spare time. When Sophia found him at the library, he didn’t seem to look happy. He was pouting and his entire face was puffed up.

She poked his puffy face and asked, “What’s wrong, darling? Tell me who bullied you.”

Nathan did not reply to her and turned to walk away. Apart from that, he even skipped lunch. It was quite apparent that something had made him upset.

After Sophia asked Gary, he replied helplessly, “He was defeated in the game and ran away by going offline. Now, he does not even dare to log into the game.”

After hearing from other people in her clan, she quickly got wind of what exactly happened. It turned out that Nathan had picked a fight with Beast and suffered a thorough defeat as a result. Then, he escaped by switching off the computer. At that moment, everyone in Beast’s clan sneered at NateHiro and his dad, Sirius233, who happened to be Sophia.

“Insolence!” No wonder Nate is so upset today. He did not speak to anyone and even skipped his meals. It turns out that he thought he had disappointed me and did not dare to look at me.

A furious Sophia immediately issued a final invitation to battle the Beast. ‘At 9 PM Cethos time tonight, everyone in my clan has to gather and kill everyone in the No. 1 Beast of the Server’s clan. We will fight to the death!’

After this piece of news was released, everyone on the game server was excited to watch a good show. Everyone had seen the previous battle where the Beast seemed to have changed into a completely different person.

They had no idea what other supplements he took that increased his fighting abilities to the point where he completely defeated Sirius’s son. It would be a good show tonight. Hence, many people set a reminder to watch the drama.

As Sophia was about to undergo army training soon, all of her electronic devices would be confiscated. At that time, she probably couldn’t play anymore, so her plan to exterminate Beast’s clan could no longer be delayed.

At half past eight that night, Nathan brought his laptop to sit next to her after he finished brushing his teeth. Sophia would give everything she had on that night.

After switching to her mechanical keyboard and her best equipment, she led her wives and her clan to the Beast’s base. The number of people involved had made the scene look grand and magnificent. A group of audience members had followed her from behind.

As Sirius233 was the most popular character on the server, everyone watched her actions closely. Her decision to exterminate Beast’s clan even attracted the pro players of the game, which made it look grander than the New Years.

Since the servers could not support such a huge load of traffic, the gaming company had instructed more employees to work overtime so that they could keep an eye on the game.

Apart from that, there were many game administrators who would maintain the order. Throughout the history of the entire game, Sirius was probably the only one who had ever received such a treatment.

On the other side of the globe, dawn had not even arrived. Since the sun had yet to rise, it was dark outside the window. Sleeping on the bed that was surrounded by scripts, Michael was looking exasperatedly at Harry, who relentlessly hugged his thighs.

“Daddy, please save me! I can’t make it without you! Please save me, Daddy! Will you let your son die this way? Daddy! Daddy!” Harry was not going to relinquish his hold on Michael’s thighs. “I’m going to die soon! Daddy, please have mercy and save me!”

“It’s merely a game. Why do you have to…” Michael was still groggy as he ruffled his messy hair. His handsome features looked like a montage at that point.

Harry was about to burst into tears. “Even though it’s merely a game, I have my reputation!”

Michael rubbed his hair and kicked him away. “Release my leg first.”

Harry did so obediently. While washing his face, Michael said, “You are already in your thirties. Can you be more mature?”

Harry was immensely grateful to him. “Thank you so much, Daddy!”

Michael quickly logged onto the game using his main account and entered the dual account mode. Then, he registered for a side account. Even though this game did not allow the dual account login, he was a god-tier player and enjoyed this privilege.

After he logged into his main account, the page had blocked his login for his side account. When Harry asked him about it, he replied with a cigarette in his mouth, “The smaller account is merely used to receive gifts from the system when I’m online.”

Under the testimony of many players, Sirius blocked the entrance of the Beast’s clan with his army of people. On the Beast’s side, many people also stood up. In total, there were hundreds of them.

Both of them immediately entered the group fight mode that only allowed hundreds of people to fight at once. ‘Swordsman Game’ was the only game company with such powerful servers to manage this.

The leaders of both clans stood on each side, leading the entire team. One of them was strong and powerful while the other was extremely arrogant. Their grudge toward each other had stemmed deeply as they stood at the intersection of fate to begin the battle of their lives.

Meanwhile, the audience members immensely enjoyed the battle.

Sirius233 wrote, ‘Beast, cut the crap and let’s settle this once and for all today! Either one of us will have to die here!’

The No. 1 Beast of the Server was as arrogant as usual. ‘Hahaha! Sirius, you are just a young, naive boy. Let me show you what true skills look like today!’ After that, the Beast showed off his new nickname that he had just given himself.

The players of this game could set their own nickname. After making payments, they could give themselves special nicknames to sound cooler in the game, like ‘DragonForce’ or ‘MightyTiger’. However, his nickname had shocked everyone—Son of Scary Phoenix!

Scary Phoenix! Upon seeing this name, everyone in the audience was excited. According to the legends, Scary Phoenix was the first player of the game and was also rumored to be one of the founders as well.

Hence, he had the only godly character that had been trained all the way from the bottom. When everyone was still fighting in the game, Scary Phoenix had already become a god and flew away.

It had been a few years since he showed up in the game, so not everyone knew about his existence. However, his name left a huge impact on older gamers.

Many people in Sirius’s clan were also asking about Scary Phoenix’s identity and even Nathan typed a question mark into his chat bubble.

Sophia knew about the character, so she was dumbfounded. No way! What is the background of the Beast? How did he find Scary Phoenix? And he claims that he is Scary Phoenix’s son? Don’t tell me that it’s true!

After the initial shock had worn off, someone immediately contradicted. ‘Hmph! If the Beast is really the Son of Scary Phoenix, he wouldn’t be so terribly defeated by Sirius the last time!’

‘He is merely scaring people off with this nickname. Give me a moment. I’ll immediately change my nickname to ‘Scary Phoenix’s daddy’!’

In real life, Nathan looked at the Beast’s nickname before glancing at Sophia, who was focused on the game. Then, he moved his mouse with his tiny hands and made a nickname for himself as well—Son of Sirius. With that, everyone would know that he was Sirius’s son.

Sophia did not seem to notice this tiny change. She was appraising the Beast’s equipment carefully, but she did not observe any changes. Son of Scary Phoenix? How could that be possible?

Scary Phoenix hasn’t even shown up in the game for years. If the Beast is really his son, when I killed his entire family in the last round, why didn’t his father stop this?

Sirius233: ‘I don’t believe that you are the Son of Scary Phoenix. If you are, then I’m his husband!’

Following that, the game screen suddenly began to move eerily like waves of water. Then, a character materialized in front of everyone.

The character wore a golden robe, holding a golden battleship in his hands. His shimmering golden wings were slightly spread out as he appeared in such a high profile manner that had never happened before.

Once he appeared, his shiny radiance shocked everyone. Even Sophia, who was in front of the computer screen, almost felt blinded by the light he radiated. After the glow faded, when she inched closer to the screen, she saw a character that materialized out of thin air between Sirius and the Beast—Scary Phoenix!
