Level 1: Offline Meet Up

March 28, 2019

Xyna's POV

Xyna's Room 4:48 PM

After beating the boss at the level 4 dungeon i went back to the home page to check on my mail since the bird came to me and notified me that i received an important message. The message was from the system, i was invited in a offline meet up of the most elite people in the game across the world.

Dear Goddess Queen Luxia,

Being one of our most elite player across the world, we have arranged a official offline meet up at May 15 to May 31, 2019 at the Shangshai Hotel, your room shall be given to you by the reception as long as you say your in game name. The official offline meet up shall be done at May 20, 2019, 10 AM at the Periwinkle event room. The theme shall be black and gold masquerade.

We are hoping for you're arrival.

Sincerely,

The Legend of the Demons

I was thinking about going but I can't leave my duties being the heiress of the most prestigious family, even if it is only for less than 1 month.

My thoughts were cut off by my personal maid who knocked and then opened my door. "Young Mistress, your Father has called for you, he wishes to see you at his office and to meet some guests at the dinning hall." my personal maid, Sakura, told me politely.

"I understand Sakura, would you mind getting me my dress? Oh and Sakura, I already told you before, just call me Xyna when we're alone together." I told her with a smile, i mean its kinda awkward for someone older than me to talk to like I'm 60 years old already. "I understand Miss Xyna, I shall try to comply with your request. Now please hurry along, you're father always did hate waiting for a long time." and then she left for me to get ready.

And then i stared back at my computer and thought.

'Maybe I shouldn't think so much about it'

At Father's private office 5:44 PM

I lightly knocked and opened the door a little to take a peek before entering and spoke "Father? You asked for me?"

Father looked rather pale for the past few weeks running the business all on his own, while still searching for mother.

"You see sweetheart, being my only daughter and the heir of our family business I wanted to arrange a marriage proposal for you with my old friend's son" I stared at him with shock.

'I couldn't believe it, my own father wanted me to get married at the age of 15!' I couldn't understand him some fathers would rather their daughters be nuns than to get married. "please princess you can get engaged with him, get to know him and get married on your 18th birthday."

I knew I couldn't argue with my father and in the end I agreed with him. "I find it a ridiculous idea but I'll try to understand such frivolous request." Then side hugged him.

At the Dinner Hall 6:03 PM

We waited for the butler to fetch the guests at the lounge and led them to the dinner hall and greeted them.

"Ezekiel welcome! Where's Clarissa and little Liam? I was expecting them to be here with you, I even prepared some gifts for Liam" my father said while shaking hands with Uncle Ezekiel and lightly patting a young man beside Uncle Ezekiel who nodded at my father

While i gave a small bow to them as a welcome.

"Hahaha! Hajime its been a while and my you look like a very responsible woman now Xyna, last time I saw you you were still in diapers! Ah yes, unfortunately Clarissa and Liam couldn't be with us since Liam had a fever and Clarissa took care of him at home. But I appreciate the gift." While he smiled softly and produced such a cheerful unlike the young man besides him.

While having the dessert my father spoke, "Ezekiel, I want to propose an engagement for Xyna and Xyrus. For both our business shall bloom, and for our bloodline to continue."  Did I mention that our family and their family has some sort of royalty bloodline from a long, long time ago? No? Ok, never mind.

I stared at the guy named Xyrus, 'he seems to be suspicious as if he was hiding something from the whole world, whatever its not like I would agree to this guy, I mean I am about to get married in the game, thats the other reason why I wanted go to the event to meet my in game h--'

"—na Xyna"

My thoughts were once again cut off by my father calling to me and everyone present in the table was looking at me

Embarrassed, I looked at my father and spoke "what is it father? Did you needed something?"

*sigh* "just pay attention please and quit playing with your food" while shaking his head as he went back to talk to Uncle Ezekiel and I nodded in response and looked down at my food to see my crêpe or atleast what it was before it looked like mushed potatoes.

While the two elders talked about business and the marriage proposal, Xyrus and I just stole glances at each other and ate quietly.

As the night ended with Uncle Ezekiel agreeing with my father. From that moment I immediately knew that mine and Xyrus' life was already laid out and planned step by step as if we were pawns in a chess game.

To have a little fun I went to my laptop and opened my game, The Legend of the Demons, just as i opened it a pop up message was shown, it was from, Diablo!

He wanted me to form an in game marriage with him.

••• (3 seconds delay)

"What?!!" Too shocked that the legendary Demon Lord of our server wanted to get married with someone like me.

"Miss Xyna, I heard a scream, are you fine?" Sakura asked while softly knocking on the door.

'Sakura, oh no!' I suddenly got up from the floor since I fell down from my chair, and shouted an I'm fine to Sakura. When I heard her footsteps leaving I then looked out of my window and thought.

Who could've knew that he would be my online husband, I never expected it although I am the 2nd player in the ranks and am nearing the 1st player.

The only person beyond the ranks was a demon class, and in this server there was only one ultimate demon who was beyond the ranks and was known to work alone or with his teammates, but gosh I was surprised when he asked me to marry him, even if he told me it was for the 110th celebration of the game and since I was the strongest female in the battle ranks.

The server told us that there would be an in game couple battle across all of the servers. At first I didn't mind it since I wasn't married yet this pleasant but shocking proposal, automatically made me join the contest. It was both scary and exciting. The said contest is held on April 16, 2019 to April 22, 2019 but a semi-battle to see which couple is to join in the contest and to represent your server is on April 10, 2019 to April 12, 2019.

But with Diablo, the demon lord in this server, I was convinced that we were to win with no problem but there was also a chance that their demon lord is married to the strongest female in their server.

Me and Diablo have yet to get married since he wanted to prepare for it and even picked an auspicious date. I didn't know why he still needed to prepare for it and made it such a big deal.

He even announced it to the world chat! The Demon lord who never used the world chat before and people immediately spread the wedding like a wild fire across our server.

I mean we could've just gotten some certificate rather than to host an extravagant banquet for so many people. But, he is the strongest and only demon lord in this server.

Then again such person cant have a petty wedding.
