Chapter 14 - Playing Together
3 PM, Sheila\'s Bedroom.
"Taking a warm bath for all the sweats from slaying the slimes in the dungeon really brings much happiness."
Sheila seemed to just come out of the bath as the water could still be seen lingering around her body that\'s wrap up nicely by a towel. But her great figure could not be hidden from a small towel. The boobs that are as big as Mount Everest could be seen fiercely fighting against the restraint from the sheet. But sadly, the cloth is too durable, and it couldn\'t escape its fate from being restraint. One day, Mount Everest will get its freedom.
After coming out of the bath, Sheila dries her wet hair with a hairdryer before standing in front of the closet, searching for a cute outfit to wear for the day. About ten or so minutes later, Sheila leaves her bedroom and walked downstairs to the living room. She could already hear them talking the moment she walk out of the bedroom\'s door due to the increased in her overall strength.
"What? Sheila actually went out so early in the morning to jog? Eyy, you can\'t lie to me, Auntie~."
"I also don\'t believe your word, Sara. The girl who would rather stay at home unless Cilia brings her out from time to times, such a girl actually did what?"
Sheila could feel a piercing arrow painfully stabbed deep into her body one by one as she was trembling walking toward the living room. Her best friend is one thing, but she couldn\'t believe that even Cilia\'s mother, Celia, also thought of her like that. All she did was going outside to jog... for the quest!
"Fufufu. since I knew you two wouldn\'t believe me, let me show you the pictures."
Sara said before standing up and picked up the camera that was put at the side of the cabinet and walked towards the two. Sheila suddenly feels a lousy omen creeps in before speeding up her walking pace to quickly stop whatever her mother is trying to show.
"Look at this, here."
But she was already too late.
"See, she\'s sweating so much from the jog as you can see from her wet shirts."
Said Sara as she showed one of the pictures of Sheila just coming home full of sweats from the jog, heading to the bedroom and not realising her mother secretly took her picture.
"Woah~ unbelievable."
The two muttered in amazement at the ridiculous sight of the picture as they clapped their hands in unison.
"MOTHER!"
Suddenly an angry shriek was resounded in the living room. It was none other than the victim, Sheila.
"My, oh my, you were here already?"
Sheila\'s shoulders were trembling while her face was fuming red as she glared at the culprit. Sara seemed to be smiling at her raging daughter.
"Cilia, why don\'t you go with my daughter to chat in her bedroom?"
"Oh well, I guess so."
Said Cilia in defeat as she stood up from her seat before walking toward Sheila as she tries to calm down the later anger. It takes a while for her to do so, and then they walked out, heading to her bedroom. But before she leaves, she stares dagger at her mother while her mother just smiled back at her.
"Did you already did your homework?"
"I had done it yesterday."
"...you are so diligent that I thought someone else is using your skin instead."
"Stop speaking nonsense and let\'s play games instead."
Said Sheila as she gives the console to Ria before starting the game. Due to being her best friend, Ria was also influenced and quite the gamer herself. Most of the time, when she comes for a visit, they would always end up playing games until dawn.
But even though she\'s also a gamer, she\'s not as much as addicted like Shiela. Occasionally, She would play it when she was bored and have nothing to do. She\'s also not as good as the addict one, and she lost every single game against Sheila. She didn\'t really care whether she lost or win the game; the fun thing is spending the time together.
"Hmm... was the game this boring before?"
Sheila muttered softly as she moves her character to slay Monsters to level up before collecting the drop and sell it to the NPC.
"Is it? I thought this is your favourite game."
Ria said while moving her character all over the villages as if, to uncover every little secret it has. But all the secret or hidden quest has already been completed by Sheila way ahead.
"It is. I wonder why I find it boring now."
Sheila\'s character was secretly following behind Ria\'s character and noticed that a group of bandits had surrounded her. Her character was not prepared for combat as her level was also still one digit. She was about to give up before Sheila cames in and \'save the damsel in distress\'.
"Perhaps, you have been playing it too much."
"No way. Even when I have played it many times, I have never felt this bored."
Sheila said as her character slay the bandits one by one, and when she finished, she dropped the console and lay down on her back.
"Ah~ I wonder why~."
Ria just stares at her friend\'s antic before shaking her head at her.
Sheila stares blankly at the ceiling while listening to the sounds of Ria\'s playthrough. Is it because of the leveling system that she finds the console game boring? Sheila thought in her mind. The current game they were playing was an RPG; perhaps, her guess was right. Leveling up, quests, monster and the likes. Everything about it screams RPG.
Her life has turned into a game.
Sheila shook her head and thoughts; it is not a game once life was involved. A game was only for entertainment and fun, never will it involved lives. She would rather play Dark Hell 3 on Abyss difficulty instead of playing a real-life version of the death game. Thankfully, her opponents so far are relatively weak.
"Muu..."
She got a headache just thinking about it. In the end, she decides to leave the future problem to the future her. She nodded her head at the genius idea before moving on and grabbed her phone from the side.

She had gained five attribute points from the daily quest and ten more from leveling up. And due to her nature of forgetting stuff, she had forgotten to distribute it. She wonders for a moment when, suddenly, a flash of lightning passed through her mind. She thought the idea was ridiculous, but it won\'t hurt to try it, her strength is already strong after all.

She nodded her head before rubbing her eyes and look at the INT once again. What was this detail? Whoever wrote it, come out. I promise I would only beat you until you turned green. She only used five while keeping the remaining ten attribute points.
"What are you doing, Sheila? Stop staring at the air and continue on the game."
"...well, fine."
