[A PEACEFUL DAY INDEED...]]

DATED:-11th JULY, 2022.

The dark room was filled with an anxious air.

Nothing but a glowing screen was on the sight, with a figure shadowed by it, sitting on a chair with his white school shirt and loosened tie, a big pair of headsets added to his high chiseled face, and messy yet neat hair flowing between the headsets.

He leans towards the screen as his eyes brightened by the light and his slender fingers tap the buttons on the mouse furiously. His eyebrows gripped with a sense of scrutiny.

"Run!".

Click....click....click... The sound of the tapping fills the room...

" F*ck, They are following close!!", a shout echoes in the headsets.

"Oi, Oi, Oi, Where are you going off to?!", an anxious sound follows.

" Ahh!! F*ck this!".

"Hide!" The never-ending flow of words resounds in the headset.

"Hide in the bushes!".

Their hands move furiously as their virtual bodies pave the way towards the base.

" Run! Run!" 

"Run!".

Their eyes wavered over the screen, following each corner of the map that appeared at the edge of the window screen.

" Don't you dare get caught!".

The flow of words continues with anxious sounds.

"Don't die on us!!".

" Okay!" a sigh of relief is released. Finally, The five-figure stands withstanding the other armored figures and with exceptional equipment.

"Let's fight back", a demanding voice resounds on the headsets.

The counterattack starts!

BANG!! BOOM!! ✴✴ BANG!!

The sound of the system fills the headsets for a moment.

Soon, five bodies lay unconscious on the floor!

KILL!!

WIPED OUT!!** The system flashes with the words.

" Okay", a sigh of relief is released from the other side of the game.

"Move! attack!".

After a few minutes, they all stare exhausted at the screen.

'VICTORY!!'

The screen glows out with the words and all the figures smile as they read.

"oooh! That was close, right?", Gon remarked from his side, his eyes keen on the computer screen.

"Ahh!! Dagger's M.V.P again!", he whines as he checks out the list of the victorious remark.

" Hmm...that was a close call!", Lizzie remarked.

"Okay! That's all for today! Let's meet up at the same time tomorrow!!", Jae Seung(a.k.a Dagger)lifts his headset after typing the words, not a single word uttered from his mouth.

Tut...' the player is offline.

The screen is displayed with the words on the other sides of the computer screen.

CURRENT TIME: 6:00 AM.

The dark room fell dead silent after the computer was shut down. He stretches his arms and gets up from the chair.

" Jae Seung!!!', a knock is heard at the door.

"The breakfast is ready, Come down!".

The footsteps lighten as it departs.

He pulls the cardigan from a chair, picks up his school bag, and leaves the room.

He walks down the stairs and sees the table laid perfectly and his mom sitting on the head chair as he reaches the living hall.

He walks to the table and keeps his cardigan and the bag on the chair beside him and makes himself seated.

" Jae Seung! Don't spend so much time with your computer, it's bad for your health!."She looks at him with concern, her eyes showed a glimpse of exhaustion.

"I know!".He finishes the conversation with it and engrosses himself in the food.

He finishes his food before his mom and stands up to leave, collecting his stuff.

" I am done! I am heading to school!".

He moves towards the door without taking a glimpse at his mom and puts on his shoes.

His mother stands up on behalf of her breakfast and comes to his side.

"Have a great day, Jae Seung-ah!". She smiles and waves him goodbye.

Jae Seung nods and leaves the house.

As he steps outside, a breeze of cold air brushes his face. He takes a deep breath and releases it, as he strides his legs towards the street.

The street seemed busy as always, the aunts gossiping on the way, the dogs running haywire, and the newspaper and milk delivering girl hurrying to deliver the packages to the houses.

It was the road that lead to the highway, and the station, which had been always busy since the early morning, with commuters, artisans, and novices on their way to catch the early bus.

The chaotic road somehow showed a glimpse of peacefulness...

CURRENT TIME: 6:45 AM.
