The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

Chapter 66 - Disguise

"Before I show you something more, I have a question for you."

"Have you ever play a game?"

"No, I only focused on studies."

"I was right, huh. Then, if you go home now, what would you do, of course if you don't mind me asking."

"Umm, I don't mind. It's just... As I said, I only focused on studies."

"I see, is it okay if you didn't do it for today?"

"Umm, why?"

"I'll show you what a game is about!"

After saying that, Sheila followed Sylvia to her house. Once arrived, she waits outside while Sylvia went inside to change her outfit. It took quite a long time before Sylvia came out with an outfit that seems not too fashionable but good enough for an outing, and Sheila noticed that there are five fingers printed on her face. Sylvia tried to act normal by smiling at her, but that caused Sheila's blood to boil even more. She cursed that woman in her mind while also imagining herself beating that woman until she was half death before feeling satisfied. 

Sheila acted like she didn't saw the hand-print on her face by handing over another health potion to Sylvia, but this time was a low grade one. It was good enough to heal small cuts and the likes. Sylvia's eyes went wide for a second before she looked down and silently took the health potion off Sheila's hand. Should I learn curse magic? That way, I could curse that woman so that she suffers for all eternity. I'm not the type to get angry easily, but this girl's mother really gets on my nerve. What a great mother she is! 

"Now that you're ready, let's go."

"Umm, where to?"

Sheila grinned and showed her white teeth to Sylvia before saying. (Sheila gives off the impression of tomboyish with that grinning expression on her face.)

"Of course, the internet cafe!"

***

"Oi, cover me. I'm going ahead!"

"Come PK with me if you're really pro at this!"

"Do you want to play rank or just casual?"

"Let's just go casual. I don't have the energy to play ranking."

Inside a spacious room filled with many computers line up side by side, many young teenage boys could be seen playing games when one looked at the screen of their computer. Among a group of teenage boys, one was talking loudly on the mic of his headphones while angrily clicking on the mouse and narrowing his eyes to focus on the screen in front of him. The serious expression on his face was like a warrior battling someone in a life-death situation. Behind him, his friend who didn't have any money, could only watch him playing while imagining themselves to be in his place.

While the boy was watching his friend getting their ass kicked by the players in the games, the boy eventually feels bored and started to look around. But his gaze froze when it went toward the front door of the internet cafe. Inside the spacious room filled with nothing but the scent of young teenage boys, he didn't expect to see two beautiful girls stepping into such a place. The last time he ever saw a girl in the internet cafe was only that one girl who can't be called a girl at all due to how tomboyish she is.

If anything, the girl was more manly and stronger than any boys in here. It was a good thing that the girl moved to another place or so he heard. If not, the boys around here wouldn't have any pride and dignity anymore as a man. That was just how bad that tomboy girl is. But one thing that this boy didn't know and wouldn't ever expect was that the tomboy girl he was talking about was the one he was currently staring at. 

"Umm, isn't there too many boys in here?"

"Don't worry, if they ever dare to touch you, I'll beat them up."

Sheila said while putting her hand on her chest before giving a pat on Sylvia's back. She tried to ease down the girl's tension since the moment this girl entered the place; she started to tremble due to the uncomfortable feeling at how many boys that were inside the internet cafe. Sheila had gotten used to it since she had visited this place a lot when she was a kid. 

Sheila didn't visit this place anymore when Sara bought a computer for her at home. Why go and waste money when you could play the game at home for free? Of course, there are bills and the likes, but she didn't care about that since a kid like her couldn't possibly have money. Anyways, it's been a while since her last visit to the Internet Cafe.

Sheila narrowed her eyes and looked around, searching for an empty PC while completely ignoring the boys who were staring at her and Sylvia. Once she found one in the corner of her view, she immediately went to the cashier and asked for a two-hour session before handing the money over. 

Sheila grabbed Sylvia's hand before bringing her toward an empty seat. She told Sylvia to sit down first before she went to her seat, which was just by the right side. Not knowing anything, Sylvia simply follows everything that Sheila told her from A to Z. And this is how she started to learn how fun playing a game could be.

"Go there and kill that monster—wait, that's a boss!"

"Use the skill—I didn't tell you to throw it at me! This game is friendly fire, you know?!"

"Stop! That's an NPC! You can't beat him!"

"I told you to kill a chicken, why are you getting caught by a guard for an attempted murder?!"

And just like that, two hours passed. 

By now, Sylvia should have known quite a lot of information about RPG since Sheila had put so much time by explaining things like level, class, status, etc. But of course, that come up with a price, It really drained a lot of her energy because of how this girl would always go on her way whether Sheila looked away for a second. When she was done with her business and went back to look at Sylvia's screen, she would see her character either dead or in a lot of trouble. Sylvia appears to be listening to her; that was why Sheila couldn't get angry at her whenever that happened.

Sheila walks toward the hill like a zombie beside Sylvia; it goes to show how tiring she was. By her side, Sylvia was smiling in happiness; she never knew that game could be so much fun. The stress that she got from her mother for the day seems to have disappeared from all the gaming that she had played. But then, she wonders why Sheila make her do and learn all that.

Once the two arrived at the hill where there was no presence left except them, Sheila immediately turns off her disguise. Sylvia widens her eyes in shock as she looked at Sheila, who is red hair to suddenly turned into natural black hair. It was such a magical sight. But it wasn't just the hair color that has changed; the facial structure of Sheila's face has also gone through a change. It was just like the disguise magic that she saw in the game! 

"Sorry, I had to use disguise just in case."

Sylvia could do nothing but nodded her head in response.

"And my name is not Akane; it's Sheila."

"Once again, I'm Sheila, nice to meet you, Sylvia."

Sheila said before putting her hands to the front, waiting for the handshake. It took Sylvia a second before she went and gave Sheila a handshake and said.

"Umm, nice to meet you?"

After their hands pulled apart, Sheila smiled before opening her mouth and casually dropped a bomb toward Sylvia's ordinary life. Basically, she told Sylvia something shocking that would make the girl went through tremendous change in her dull life. 

"Are you ready to experience a magical world?"
