"My name is Evan Siregar, I am the grandson of the previous owner of this game, ENTER OF ADVENTURE. Greetings all."
The roar from the audience inside the studio warmly welcomed Dark69 who introduced himself, as well as the audience outside the studio as well as those watching from inside the game.
"His name is Evan? Hahaha." For some reason, Bagas laughed when he heard the sound from the hologram screen in front of him. Out of curiosity, Tiara asked him who was beside her:
"Why? Why are you laughing instead? Isn't that a pretty name?"
"Nothing."
After scolding and telling Daylon to go home, Tiara returned to the game to see the match between her guild leader and Bagas, who was his high school friend.
Even though at this time Tiara didn't know what was wrong with her friend, Bagas, but she felt that Bagas was not like her old self, maybe because he argued with Dark69 1,5 years ago, so he doesn't seem to like Dark69 now.
The two of them quarreled due to differences of opinion, Dark69 wanted to take his guild members into the Bengawan club, while Bagas didn't want his members to enter the Bengawan club. And that's when the Supernova guild split into two groups. Some of them, such as Helena and Kahfi, were forced to follow Dark69 into the Bengawan club and sign a contract; some, like Tiara, Elvina, Joko, and also Elvina, followed Bagas not to enter the Bengawan club.
Even though Bagas knew that Dark69 was the player who contributed the most to him, he felt that it was not Dark69. For the first time, Bagas is not in line with Dark69, whose identity is known as Evan Siregar.
It's not that Bagas is ungrateful, it's just that he feels like it's time for him to part with him, because it's incompatible. Ten years he worked hard to build the Supernova guild but was disappointed by his teacher, Dark69.
And his disappointment grew even more disappointed when Evan spoke:
"I will change my nickname and class."
His words angered Bagas in his heart, and he even bit his lip.
-Do you want to change the nickname and class that you are proud of? Don't be bullshit!
Disappointed? Of course, Bagas was disappointed. Angry? Certain. Sad? Of course, he could barely even let out his tears.
When Daylon played his account, he always boasted that his nickname and class were a source of pride to him, even to the point of making Bagas's ears bored hearing what he said over and over.
"Well, how about you change your name and class, Bagas? You know, your name is just like the real name, and that's just plain ugly. Your class changed to like me. What the hell with Dual Sword, that's terrible. Better, you just switch to Samurai! I'm so proud to have my name and class, I even want to take it home, even want to take it to sleep too."
"What are you talking about? My nickname does use my real name, that's because I use my e-KTP to secure my account. And I chose Dual Sword to make me like Kiritod."
"It's disgusting," said Dark69, played by Daylon, before he finally threw his dirt nose in Bagas' face.
"Dirty, stupid!"
"Anyway, you have to change huh!" said Dark69, walking towards the exit.
"Where are you going? Perhaps…"
"Ah! I want to go to a few more places. See you later." Dark69 stopped when he was at the door, then turned to Bagas and said, "Don't get wet, okay, when I'm gone." Dark69 smiled a little.
***
Not only Bagas was angry when Evan said that, but even Dark69 fans were also disappointed and angry when they heard what Evan said.
"Why, how come it was replaced? Why?"
"Why?"
Those who were in the studio, where the tournament was taking place, or who were outside the studio felt surprised by his decision. They know that the Indonesian servers are known for the nickname Dark69 and the Samurai class, but why should he throw them away? Isn't this tantamount to throwing away one's soul?
Yeah, all Dark69 fans ask that without knowing that Evan is not the original owner of the account with the nickname Dark69, but the one who stole the account.
"It might surprise my fans and my friends a little, but this is already the final decision for me."
While Evan was talking, Tiara blinked 5 times quickly to open the menu screen. She checked the Guild menu to see if Evan had changed his name, or was it just nonsense. And when she saw it, Tiara was surprised to see that his nickname had changed.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I've changed my nickname to my own before this tournament took place, and changed my class to… Berserker."
The viewers were surprised to hear what Evan said, they even immediately spoke individually together with the friend who was on the side.
"He replaced him? Also, he changed the Berserker class?"
"Hmm…" a player muttered. "Berserker, huh? Hmm..."
Two years ago, the EOA game had a major update when the owner of the company was only in office for a few days. In the latest update, a new class appears namely Barbarian, as well as adding several new areas to the map as well as fixing bugs and other changes. No wonder why many players are surprised when they hear it, it's because the Barbarian class is still new and rarely uses it.
Even though it is the same as Samurai, there is no Awakening, but Barbarian is more powerful because it uses a Greatsword or Hammer to fight than Samurai who only use Katana, Yari, or Naginata to fight. It is clear from the point of view of weapon strength, the Katana, Yari, or Naginata with the Greatsword or Hammer, then the Samurai class lost to the Barbarian class, so Evan changed his class to Barbarian so that his attack power became stronger even though the Katana he had was even good.
"He is..." Tiara was still shocked by what she heard, while Bagas only clenched his hands tightly.
-Changed, everything changed.
Bagas kept thinking about what he felt, even occasionally he reminded Daylon of the moments together with Dark69 played by Daylon.
"Tomorrow, I will sell this Katana." Proudly, Evan pointed to the screen behind him, and it displayed a Katana. "I will auction it off. So, anyone can follow the auction later. That's all from me, and thank you."
After saying that, Evan passed the microphone to the host and walked towards the right side of the room, from the viewpoint and camera angle.
"Those are the words of the number one in Indonesia. This surprises me a little, Miranda. How do you think your response is to this?"
"Yes, I was also surprised to hear the words of the new company's owner's son, Evan. I'm sure, his fans were also surprised to hear his words earlier. His decision shocked the audiences all over Indonesia — no, even around the world, which changed his name and class."
The two emcees spoke, and the professional players 5 each, as well as their respective coaches and manager, were preparing strategies for the match later in a room.
"All of you can't wait to watch the match between Bengawan and Uthai, right? So it is with me. I can't wait to see how the new Dark69 will battle it out," said the male host.
"Me too, Coki," said the female host.
"But before that, someone wants to pass first. So, wait after the following advertisements!" said the male host, pointing at the camera.
"Mother, I'm thirsty."
"Mother too, son. Your father is looking for a drop of water on women's chests. So, be patient!"
"You are thirsty, but confused about what to drink? Take it easy, we will give you a big discount on our beverage products. So what are you waiting for, come and buy Pmpsi right now before it runs out. Remember, cans and water are sold separately."
A human who watched the commercial slammed down his television and said:
"What kind of ad is this?!"
After a few minutes, after the commercial was over, the spectators on the screen as well as in the game watched the tournament again and saw the large cloths on the right and left slowly open. After the black cloth was lifted upwards, it opened, you could see a large glass in which there were 5 mattresses, and on top of the mattress was an ERVION Helmet whose cable was connected somewhere.
The professional players started to enter the room, which contained the mattress, and began to attach the ERVION Helmet to the head.
"Soon… soon…" The male emcee looked excited by himself. "Soon we will see a match between the Bengawan club, Indonesia, against the Uthai club, Thailand. Who will win later? Wait after the advertisements go on-"
"There are no more advertisements, Coki."
"Oh, will you?"
"Yes."
After taping the television, an angry human being in front of the television:
"No more commercials, you bastard!" He inhaled and exhaled his breath. "I'm tired of getting angry all the time, I've been angry seven times today. So, stop pissing me off, O television!"
"Then, let's wait for the match to start," said the male host.
"That's right, Coki." The emcee saw the professional players starting to lie down on the bed. "Looks like, we'll be watching the match in a few seconds, Coki."
After the female presenter said that, the male hosts saw what the female hosts saw.
"Woah, they're ready to fight, Miranda."
"Right, Coki. We will see the appearance of Evan, the number one player in Indonesia. I can't wait, Coki."
After the female host spoke, the professional players said, "ENTER OF ADVENTURE Start!" simultaneously.
"Battle begin!" said the male show reader.
But before the professional players competed and entered the EOA game, Bagas suddenly said something that made Tiara startled and fell silent:
"I... I will leave the Supernova guild." Bagas left Tiara still silent, and he teleported to a place, to be more precise teleported to Mount Himura, to oppose himself after fighting with his selfishness.
