Chapter 557 Gaming Adonis
Zobber was focusing on completing the new mission Catherine assigned her, with no spare time to gossip.
The holiday had come to an end, and Catherine returned to school. After Beatrice left, the dorm room seemed more spacious and comfortable.
As soon as Catherine entered the room, she saw Amelia sitting on a chair with her feet propped up. Amelia was watching a live-streaming video on her computer.
Hearing the sound, Amelia turned her head and saw Catherine. She waved at Catherine excitedly and asked, â Catherine, do you play the mobile game âPlayerUnknownâs Storms?'â
Catherine nodded slightly. She had indeed been playing that mobile game recently.
Amelia looked down on Isabella for being a bookworm and not playing games. Seeing Catherine nod, Amelia became extremely excited and quickly introduced her new idol.
âCatherine, since you play this game, you must know the top player, Hero. Heâs become very popular on the internet, not only because heâs good at the game, but also because heâs incredibly handsome. Heâs been dubbed âGaming Adonisâ by his fans.â
Amelia excitedly pointed at the computer screen, almost dragging the man from inside the computer out and presenting him in front of Catherine.
Considering Ameliaâs excessive excitement, Catherine glanced up at the computer screen.
Indeed, there was a pretty handsome face displayed on the screen.
The young man did have a handsome face. He had a refined oval face, a prominent nose, and three- dimensional facial features. He looked truly alluring.
Catherine took a quick glance and noticed the nameplate placed on the table. It was âHero.â
For the past few days, there had been a player with the same name constantly sending her friend requests in the game.
Catherine had never accepted any of his requests. She never friended people she wasnât familiar with.
Catherineâs lack of interest didnât diminish Ameliaâs enthusiasm. She continued to talk non-stop, introducing her new idol.
âCatherine, let me tell you, Hero is not only amazing at gaming, but heâs also incredibly intelligent. Heâs in the same university as us. Itâs said that he got accepted into Styre University this year. And because heâs participating in the competition, the school has granted him an exemption from physical training. Isnât that amazing?â
Catherine didnât say anything, as she had no interest in these gaming celebrities. Faced with Ameliaâs enthusiasm, she just wanted to rest.
At the Golden Star Training Center, Heroâs teammates noticed that Hero was still staring blankly at his phone, which made them curious.
âCap, hasnât that mysterious player friended you yet?â
Hero furrowed his brow and remained silent. He had sent countless friend requests, but there was no response. He also noticed that the mysterious player hadnât been online recently. He had checked this playerâs game record and realized that she had only played a few dozen matches this season, which didnât seem like the record of a professional player.
If this player was just an ordinary player, then they must have been an incredibly talented one. Having someone like them on the team would undoubtedly enhance their chances of winning the competition.
Knowing Heroâs dilemma, his teammates decided to give him some advice.
âCap, I donât think it will be difficult to find this person.â
Hero immediately looked up at his teammate. âDo you know this player?â
The teammate shook his head and said, âOf course not. If I knew such an amazing player, I would have bragged about it every day. Jacob is a computer genius at Styre University. We can trace this playerâs location based on the IP address. Once we have the location, it should be much easier to find this player.â
Hero agreed with this idea. Even though it seemed a bit intrusive to invade someoneâs privacy, in order to find this talent, he was willing to give it a try. Once he had made up his mind, he immediately stood up. âIâll go talk with Jacob about it.â
In the female dormitory at Styre University, the sound of an alarm clock woke up the sleeping residents.
Isabella was always the first one up, followed by Amelia, and finally Catherine.
Unlike the other two, although Catherine woke up the latest, she was the quickest to leave. She was efficient and swift in her actions. With a simple tidying up, she could be ready to go.
As Catherine was about to leave, Amelia quickly called out to her, âCatherine, wait!â
Catherine turned around. Amelia pulled out a book and handed it to her. â Catherine, your book. I went to pick it up for you yesterday.â
Catherine glanced down and reached out to accept it, saying softly, âThanks.
This kind of thing was always taken care of by Ronin, and Catherine had never picked up her own books before. When she was at Loyalty Academy, her backpack was always kept in the drawer, with books from various subjects inside.
The way classes were conducted in college was a bit different, with no fixed classrooms. Depending on the course, students had to bring their own books to school for each class.
If it werenât for Ameliaâs reminder, Catherine would have just walked straight to the classroom like that.
Watching Catherineâs departing figure, Amelia couldnât help but squint her eyes and turn to Isabella behind her.
âBella, donât you think Catherine has a great presence? Sheâs so cool when she said âthanksâ just now.â
Isabella chuckled and grabbed Ameliaâs hand. âAlright, stop daydreaming and go to class. I donât want to be late.â
Catherine walked downstairs and saw Ronin already waiting there. Holding a delicate food container, he rushed up to Catherine.
âCatherine, your breakfast.â
The lid of the food container was transparent, through which Catherine could see the delicious breakfast inside. All of it was her favorite, perfectly suited to her taste.
Catherine reached out and took it, asking in return, âDid you eat?â
âI did,â Ronin replied without hesitation. He had woken up at five in the morning just to prepare breakfast for Catherine. He knew that she wouldnât be accustomed to the breakfast in the cafeteria. Since he was accompanying her to university, he had to take care of her from every aspect.
As for himself, he would just eat an egg later.
Ronin caught sight of the book in Catherineâs hand and widened his eyes in surprise.
âCatherine, you went to pick up the books yourself?â
He hadnât known about this before. It was after his roommate told him that he knew he had to go pick up the books himself. After picking up his own books, he went to Catherineâs class and picked up her books as well.
Catherine raised the book in her hand and said, âAmelia picked them up for me.â
Hearing Catherineâs response, Ronin felt a little unhappy. His job had been taken over again. But it was a good thing. Catherineâs roommates werenât annoying and were willing to take care of her.
Ronin was happy that Catherine seemed satisfied with the breakfast he had prepared.
âCatherine, Iâll accompany you to class.
