Chapter 198 - Wraith's Stream Clip.
In Snowstar.
Maxwell was sitting in his office with the screen of his PC turned on.
Only moment ago, he was still scrolling through White Online forums, but then another post popped up, which started moving rankings quickly.
It took less than a minute for it to have a hot tag, meaning it was one of the most discussed topics in the past 24 hours!
The post had an exciting title.
[Wraith's Stream Clip!]
Maxwell was drinking a cup of coffee, but after seeing the title, he had to utter all his willpower to keep his coffee inside his mouth and not spit it out and make a mess out of his office.
*Gulp*
He gulped down the hot coffee and instantly felt his tongue scream in pain.
''Ahhh… Hooot!'' Like a dog, he put his tongue out of his mouth and started taking deep breaths, hoping that his breath would cool it down, but it did the complete opposite and made it even hotter!
''Aaahhh!'' He screamed and ran out of his office, straight to the kitchen.
''Honey, what's wrong?'' Isabella asked from the living room and saw her husband running to the kitchen as his life depended on it.
''Hot!'' Maxwell screamed and pushed the kitchen doors open.
''Dummy.'' Isabella turned around and continued watching a new drama TV show.
Inside the kitchen.
Maxwell grabbed a milk bottle from the refrigerator and started gulping it down.
''Ahhh…'' He wiped the milk stains from his mouth and touched his sensitive tongue, which was still in pain, but not as bad anymore.
After subduing most of the pain, he remembered the post, ''Isaac… What did you do this time?'' He left the kitchen and started walking straight towards his office but was stopped.
''Dad!'' Mark ran from the second floor to the first floor and stopped in front of Maxwell.
''Mark, what is it?'' Maxwell said carefully, trying not to irritate his sensitive tongue anymore.
''Can I play White Online?'' He asked with his big blue eyes sparkling in expectations.
''Age limit is 13, sorry son.'' Maxwell said and ruffled Mark's hair, making it untidy.
''Come on!'' Mark shouted and stomped back upstairs.
''Is there any new VR games coming to market after the success of White Online?'' Isabella asked from the living room.
''Yeah,'' Maxwell said and started walking towards his office, ''I will buy a game for kids!''
Isabella waved her hand and wished that Mark would be satisfied with that, but a small chance for it to happen.
Once he opened the door to his office, he closed it and went straight to his chair.
After sitting on the comfy office chair, he grabbed the mouse on the desk and double-clicked on the post.
Soon, the screen changed, and it started showing the forum's post.
There was a row of texts and also a video link below.
Maxwell started reading the texts aloud, ''Yesterday, a new streamer popped up, with the name of Wraith.
''At first glance, it was evident that he will be famous in one way or another, but what surprised me and hundred others was his excellent usage of Marksman class!
''I hope that these clips show the appeal that is called Adventure Streams— I and a dozen others in the stream decided to name it like that. The others who named with me were guys called Divinity, Tyrant, Sandy, Lynch…
''But, that was only one part I want you guys to see, but the other was how Wraith used Marksman class against Orc's and some Tail Spirit, it might surprise many of you, and I want everyone to rethink.
''Is Marksman really weak class?'' After he finished reading it aloud, Maxwell took a deep breath.
''Son… You are bringing a storm if this is really what I think he talked about.''
*Click* *Click*
He used a mouse and once again double-clicked on the video clip.
The video started with a white-haired young man standing on top of some kind of purplish mountain, but then the camera moved to capture the massive Centipede in the distance!
For next five minutes of the video was about the battle between Isaac and the tail and Orcs.
The scene showed how perfect Isaac moved and calculated everything perfectly, but it also showed his perfect usage of Marksman class.
The clip ended once the final Orc fell on the ground.
The fight showed a lot.
How Isaac killed the tail spirit, how he easily outsmarted the Orc's and managed to use Marksman class in Close Quarters.
Everything shown on the video made many excited and even nervous.
The sight of the giant centipede made many pale in fright, but also seeing a young man that was vastly outmatched desperately trying to dodge made many excited after seeing him fighting and winning.
Everyone around him was at least twice his size, but he still managed to survive.
Not only that…
He managed to win!!
Maxwell left the video clip with a face that he had never shown to anyone before.
It was a face of amazement.
He couldn't believe his eyes that the one in the video was really his son!
A son that was heavily protected and loved since he was born, but it became extreme after the incident that almost cost his life.
If someone told him that Isaac fought against dozens of terrifying Orc's and won, he would call them as liar.
But, the proof was right in front of him, and Maxwell couldn't describe the feeling he currently had.
His heart was beating, but he didn't know whether it was from nervousness or else.
*BA BUMP*
But, he knew what kind of feeling in his heart was sprouting.
A feeling of pride.
Maxwell touched his chest, at the location where his beating heart should be, ''He is no longer a child…''
He closed his eyes and knew what kind of future Isaac would have.
A future where he doesn't need to rely on his parents; instead walk on a path that will be full of hardships and setbacks, but a path that he can walk proudly with head high.
''I chose right…'' Maxwell's mouth curved into a small smile and a deep breath left his mouth, ''Isaac, how far will you reach? And… Will you be one of our saviors?''
