My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 44

Nathan's bodyguard was extremely unsatisfied. How can my Little Master eat this? However, Natenever complained—in fact, he seemed to enjoy the food.

After having the hot pot, he was full to the point where he could burst. Sophia held onto his tinyhand while walking out of the shop. “Let's go, we'll have some fun at the night market. Hale, pay thebill.”

Hale took out his wallet reluctantly while thinking to himself, Do I get to claim this bill or am Ipaying it out of pocket? How can the lady boss be so stingy?

After paying the bill, he asked for a receipt since he was hoping that he might get a reimbursement.The night market had only started, but it was already extremely lively with the street performers andvendors selling either clothes or phone cases. Some of them even had ring toss games in their stalls.It was extremely crowded, which made it difficult to move around.

Sophia led Nathan to one of the vendors with the ring toss game. After having a look, they noticedthe wide variety of toys arranged neatly on the ground. Players were allowed to take away thesetoys immediately as long as the bamboo hoops landed on the toys.

She paid 10 to buy eight hoops before asking him, “Have you played this game before?”

He shook his head in honesty.

"Come, I'll show you how the game works.”

She stood her ground and focused while holding onto a hoop. She scanned the area and soonsettled on a target—a ceramic piggy bank! It'll be great if I can take that home even if it's merely fordecoration!

She held onto the hoop and tossed it carefully.

The hoop flew out and made an arch across the air, but unfortunately missed the target.

She tried to toss another, but it had also missed.

Sophia continuously tossed four hoops. The closest she had was when a hoop brushed the top ofthe piggy bank before bouncing off again

Nathan started to panic as well and his face scrunched up with worry.

Nevertheless, she was not anxious at all as she handed the remaining four hoops to him instead."Here, Nate, why don't you toss the hoops? I want that piggy bank.”

He had been waiting beside her, raring to go. Once he received the bamboo hoops from her, hecopied Sophia's stance and tossed a hoop out carefully.

The first hoop flew far away and accidentally hit one of the onlookers surrounding them. However,the person merely smiled without causing a scene since Nathan looked so adorable.

Sophia encouraged him. “Nate, you are doing great. In fact, you did so much better when I firstthrew my first hoop!”

Hale addedI, “That's right. Little Master, you're the best! Don't give up and I'm sure you'll hit thetarget the next time.”

The second hoop went flying out before hitting the head of a taller toy and bouncing off againSophia continued to encourage Nathan. “Just look at how awesome my son is! He's going for thekill!”

The third hoop missed the target as well, which made him seem rather dejected. He pouted whilestaring up at her.

She patted his head reassuringly. “Don’t worry, we have plenty of money. We'll get a hundred oreven a thousand hoops, if need be. I'm sure we'll get at least one hoop in!”

Nathan nodded determinedly and stopped panicking. He tightened his grip around the lastbamboo hoop with his tiny hand before tossing it aggressively toward the piggy bank Sophia hadher eyes on. The hoop hit the piggy bank's head once before bouncing off under his watchful eyes.However, he didn't expect the hoop to settle immediately around a smaller plastic frog!

His eyes sparkled immediately whereas Sophia almost leaped in joy too. “Nate, you are awesome! Ilove you to the moon and back!”

He agreed that he was awesome too. Finally, his tiny face broke into a satisfied grin despite the factthat the little shabby-looking frog was most probably worth less than 1.

On their way back, Nathan held onto the small frog while appearing pleased with himself. The lasttime he looked so pleased was when he dug his first Bitcoin.

"Come, let's go. We have to return home now to check whether the Beast accepted our challenge.”Sophia picked Nathan up onto her motorbike. After putting on their helmets, she sped off to returnto campus.

After taking a shower in the hostel, Sophia hurriedly switched on her laptop and logged into thegame. I gave him 48 hours to decide. If the Beast does not accept the invitation for battle within 48hours, it would automatically be regarded as him forfeiting in fear.

The Beast accepted the battle invitation, as expected, after he logged in. In fact, he was online atthat moment!

“Ha! Ha! Ha! Nate, quickly come here to see how I'm about to torture this scumbag!”Coincidentally, the nanny was just finished with Nathan's shower and sent him to Sophia. He took astool to sit beside Sophia while waiting in excitement to watch the battle.

Soon, Sirius233 and the No. 1 Beast of the Server appeared simultaneously on Rocky Pinnacle.Furthermore, their final battle would officially start at 9PM.

The final battle would determine both one’s reputation and status!

The No. 1 Beast of the Server wanted to save its long lost reputation whereas Sirius233 merelywanted to avenge her son.

Sophia stared at the character of the Beast on the monitor and clicked on the equipment that hewore. It was fine when she wasn't aware of it, but she was taken aback when she saw what he had.Within a day, the Beast's weapons had increased by several levels. In fact, he was using certainequipment that she did not recognize, but it all had incredible attributes.

She only recognized the sword he carried. Several days ago, she saw the sword on a well-knowntrading website for game items. Someone had bought the sword by bidding 2,330,000 in realmoney and not in game currency!

Almost everyone on the server gathered around to watch their battle. Some players had alreadyrecognized the insanely-priced sword from the beginning, causing a commotion among the crowd.“Oh, my God! That sword is blinding me with its awesomeness!"

“Oh, my God! That's a weapon that costs more than 2,000,000! Is Sirius confident in winning this?"Sophia was no longer calm as she started to type rapidly on her keyboard. “Dude, it's merely agame. Do you have to be so serious about this? That sword is worth more than 2,000,000! Wouldn'tit make more sense to purchase a house that will appreciate in value?’

Her opponent did not reply to her. Once it was time for the final battle, he lifted his sword andcharged at her.

I thought I have already spent a lot on my equipment since I spent more than 100,000 on myweapon. However, I didn't expect him to spend more than 2,000,000 to procure that weapon, whichhappens to be the only one available on the entire server! How could a weapon, which costs100,000, possibly defeat the enemy's sword that costs 2,000,000?! She immediately felt the pressurewhen their swords clashed, rendering her unable to perform most of her usual skills and even hertechniques were no longer as smooth as before! However, Nate is watching beside me. I can'tsurrender out of fear!

Sophia was anxious and her palms were covered in a film of sweat!

The player, who won two out of the three rounds in the final battle, would be the victor. In the firstround, Sirius was beaten to a pulp and practically hung up without a chance to defend herself.Sophia also gave up directly resisting. My equipment can’t even compete with my opponent's one.She minimized the first round of battle while logging into a game equipment trading website topurchase a discontinued sword that was worth 2,000,000.

By the time she paid for the sword and took it back to the game, the first round of battle hadended. Both parties were preparing for the second round of battle.

At that moment, the surrounding audience realized in shock that Sirius, who had been beaten to apulp in the first round, was now brandishing a dazzling weapon! That dazzling sword had similarattributes to the Beast's weapon. However, it was obvious that she had a better flow while fightingwith the sword. She turned the tide in the blink of an eye and started to beat the Beast relentlessly!Sirius won the second round of the battle. In the third round, she was victorious too.

“Argh!” the beast howled in agony while being completely defeated. He had lost to Sirius233 onceagain.

“Damn it!"

It was noon in Moscov with the sun spilling brightly into the gym. Harry was engrossed with hisgame in the corner of the room and now stared in disbelief at his laptop screen. I can't believe I lost!I've even lost twice now! I actually lost in full view of the public!

He switched off his laptop while standing up abruptly. Then, he walked toward Michael who wasworking out. “Old man, lend me your Godly character in “Swordsman Game". I need to torturesomeone.”

Several students in Bayside University had developed the “Swordsman Game’ when they were stillstudying in the university. After the game was completed, Michael took a fancy to the game andinvested his money without thinking twice. Currently, the game took up the largest share in themarket and it was still popular even after many years

Hence, he possessed the one and only Godly character in this game!

Michael rejected Harry immediately. “I forgot the password for my main character. I only have a newfemale character right now.”

"Pfft!"
