Larissa lelt Jay’s room, fully aware that she might lace termination by the general manager. However,
she was not afraid of this outcome. Jay might have the power to cost her job, but he was not able to do
whatever he liked in Covenford..
With her credentials and skills, finding another job in the industry wouldn’t be difficult for Larissa.
Surprisingly, the whole aftemoon passed without any communication from the general manager,
Larissa did not know if it was because Jay had not complained about her or if he did complain and the
general manager chose to overlook
the matter.
But regardless of whichever it was, she did not care.
Not long after she clocked out Larissa received a phone call from Zero, whom she had net met for a
long time.
“My Lady Luck, you free tonight? You cool with supper?”
Zero rarely called her out for a hangout, so Larissa could not find it in herself to reluse her.

Supper was at a Southern-style diner that sold greasy lood. But Zero ate pasta instead which was
strangely bland for her caling habits.
Tve recently gotten quite a bit of acne, so I’m taking it easy with heavy foods for now,” Zrro explained.
is it because of makeup allergy or what? Larissa asked based on what she was told. “Did you check it
out at the hospita?
“No.” Zero pursed her lips as she touched her face. “I’m just angry, but I haven’t got any place to lash
out so it turned into acne instead.”
“What’s wrong? Larissa was curious.
Zero was pretty chill when she was not gaming, so it was rare to see her angry. To be so angry to the
point that she had acne clear that this was no smal matter.
“It’s those two knuckleheads! Dark Knight and Best! F ucking as sholes!” Zero huffed even as she
shoved a mouthful of salad into her
mouth.
The names Dark Knight and BestM were somewhat familiar to Larissa. After a bit of recalling. she

“Ever since they’ve surpassed me in all sorts of rankings, they keep coming to show off their results. I

company made an exception and allowed two of the company’s anchors to participate.
“You know that I started as a professional player, and my skills are top-notch at StreamWave. A few

grown accustomed to them. As a result, she did not react as strongly as Zero did.
