Chapter 56: Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Alice smirked. Skill was the best way to silence doulders. Her second, third, and subsequent battles were all over within three minutes. She crushed the competition. During the battles, she was reminded of the joy she’d felt while competing before.

In just a few hours, her livestream gained 100,000 followers!

The chat exploded:

“OMG, is this some pro’s alt accoum?”

“The Hall of Fame doesn’t allow alts rankings affect the leaderboard!”

I suggest the streamer change their name to “Sour Lemon” because you made us all jealous!” Garrett, watching the livestream, was speechless.“Jack, your apprentice is a beast! She wasn’t battling; she was fishing in a newbie pond!” This was insane!

Jack watched Alice’s rapid ascent, a slight smile on his lips.“I told you she was talented!” His tone held a hint of pride.

Alice achieved a thirty–win streak, qualifying for the top 100! She paused, taking a drink of water That was it for the night. The top 100 battles would begin tomorrow.

Her stream now had 150,000 viewers, and her follower count skyrocketed. Alice was surprised. She saw many people asking who she was and how she did it.

Alice spoke into her microphone. I’m a newbie. I just love this game. Please follow me. Tomorro at 7 pm, I’ll be online for the next round.”

Garrett sent three rockets.

Alice smiled. Thank you for the gifts. I’ll try my best tomorrow.” She went offline.

Alice breathed a sigh of relief. She’d been nervous. Last time, Chloe interacted a lot with her fans. Alice couldn’t be as charming, so she had to rely on skill.

Garrett clapped, entering the study.“Alice, you were amazing! You qualified so quickly!”

Alice was embarrassed.“I wanted to qualify quickly to attract more followers. I need money.”

“You gained so many followers. Shrimp Live will contact you soon. With your skills, teams will want to sign you!”

Alice knew she’d received a message from Luke about signing. But she hadn’t replied.

“I haven’t decided yet. I’ll focus on livestreaming first.”

Garrett Was insistent.“Alice, how did you learn the twelve–hit combo?”

Alice glanced at Jack; he’d asked the same question. Did he doubt her?

She replied, “I love King. I’m a big fan, so I practiced his moves secretly. I didn’t expect to succeed that day.”

“You... like who?” Garrett subconsciously looked at Jack. “Dude, that’s not right! She said she likes. you! You guys can’t be together!”

Alice also looked at Jack. What was going on?

Jack leaned against the desk.“It’s late. Don’t stay up too late; you won’t grow tall!

Chapter 56 “I’ll go then.” Alice was tired.

She went to her room, washed up, and went to bed. Checking her phone, she saw Chloe’s post:[Thanks Luke for boosting me to #1! Over 100,000 followers!]

Alice remembered her account being stolen last time. She deleted Chloe’s post. Finally free from the Windhams.

But she received a video from the class monitor: [Alice, is this you? The voice sounds familiar.] It was her livestream. She hadn’t shown her face, only her hands and keyboard; she didn’t want her family finding out before she became successful.

Alice replied:[Maybe.] She didn’t confirm it was her. She fell asleep.

In the next room, Jack glared at Garrett. If you have nothing to say, don’t say it.”

“I was curious! She said she likes you!”

Jack looked uncomfortable. “There are many kinds of liking.” Not just romantic..

Garrett excitedly said, “I’ve had someone edit Alice’s livestream. It’ll be trending. She’ll be at gaming star this summer!”

Jack saw the video; Alice’s performance was excellent.

The video went viral. Many were guessing who “Sweet Lemon” was.

Luke, owner of Green Fruit Live, saw the news. “She gained 100,000 followers in one night?”

“Yes, boss. You wanted to sign ‘Sweet Lemon.‘ We think it’s the same person. The game name, character, and class match.”

“It is her.” Luke had wanted to sign “Sweet Lemon” for a while. She’d started livestreaming on Shrimp Live his rival’s platform!

Luke logged in, but she was offline. She hadn’t replied to his message. He only glanced at the beginning of the video.

“Get her to Green Fruit Live, no matter what! Many will try to sign her. Contact her.” He couldn’t let Shrimp Live get her.

Chloe entered his office with a food container. “Luke, who are you trying to sign this time?”

“The Gunner I mentioned. She’s on Shrimp Live, gaining 100,000 followers a night! She’d be perfect for Landing Team!”

Chloe looked embarrassed; she’d only just reached 100,000 followers. Someone gained that many in one night?

Luke noticed.“Chloe, you’re doing great! Keep working. I’ll get you a newcomer award at the Net Idol Festival.”

“Thank you, Luke. I’m grateful. I made you a snack. Eat something, or you’ll get a stomach ache.

like Noah.”

“Chloe’s so considerate, unlike some people.” Luke’s mood soured thinking about Alice.

Chloe felt a surge of satisfaction. She might not be a 100,000–follower streamer, but she was better than Alice. She searched for “Sweet Lemon“‘s livestream. Hearing the voice, her mind went blank. That voice... was Alice’s!
