I will be The Monkey God!

Chapter 76: Do you want to become my friend?



"Are you here to participate in the Regional Tournament?"

"Yeah! I was waiting for my girlfriend, but she told me to go ahead and register. What about you?"

"I am... veteran here!" The bespectacled youth pushed his glasses as he smiled. He was a veteran viewer! 

The Regional Tournament, The International Tournament, The Continental Tournament, and so on! This youth followed all tournaments and he always looked forward to the new players!

The new celebrities began their journey here, in The Regional Tournament!

"First time in the center?" The youth asked!

"Yep!" Michu replied and both of them naturally joined.

They were in the center where all high players had their guilds headquarters and so on. These lands were surrounded by the most mighty three kingdoms whose lands spanned over a myriad of lands. Of course, the actual center was something only the truly high-leveled players could go to.

it was a matter for another time!

Michu's goal was to sign for the Regional Tournament.

"Wanna banana?" Michu asked.

"Thanks!" The youth thanked with a wide smile. 

His name was 'Four Eyes Light' and as if his name obliged him, his glasses shone with white light that covered his eyes wholly! He did it each time he pushed his glasses.

Four Eyes Light continued, "This year is actually dope... We have Zerze who completed The Impossible Quest in a month. There is Kitty Blue who has undergone race change at an early level! We also have Black Magic Magician! We have finally gotten a lot of unique classes!"

He spoke about their region.

Michu and Four Eyes Light were in the eastern region.

Depending on your place in real life, you would either spawn in four blocks; Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern. These were based on your timezone and the game world followed it closely.

Michu was from Eastern Block and he would represent the eastern region if he were to go professional.

Their region wasn't the weakest, but also not the strongest. In all tournaments where all regions fought against each other, Michu's eastern region would be either top three or top two.

It was mostly the former that prevailed on the international stage.

"Hmm... I just know Zerze," Michu replied while munching on the banana.

He knew about the regional tournament from Venomous, but she hadn't told him about participants one should have an eye on. Of course, Yumi would do her research once their opponents became confirmed.

People such as Four Eyes Light were avid fans that made their personal ranking and gleaned a lot of information. It was mostly due to their hobby, but this information was also valuable.

They could get a lot of money!

The popular way was betting, "Oh, then information is really important here!" Michu inferred, then took another banana. Surprisingly, Four Eyes Light also requested another one. Somehow, those bananas were delicious, melting within one's mouth softly while kindling the palate!

Michu casually passed a banana, then listened to his new friends' words.

These were more valuable because of the banana, "I think Zerze will win this tournament." Four Eyes Light added, "All my buddies think so... It's not like he is the only one with big guild support, but this guy... is something else..." The youth looked scared while speaking about Zerze!

Michu curiously asked, "You gather so much information. Why haven't you become a professional yet?"

"Ehh... This is just a hobby... And I lack talent," Four Eyes Light smiled bitterly, "Even if I had a unique class, it would get wasted on me... This is a bitter truth," The young man looked sadly below.

It wasn't the first time he answered such a question, so he coped better.

Michu found such a sight painful one, "Yumi always tells me that information is the key. If you could find a class for information gathering, you would become one of the popular players in this game!" He decided to cheer on his new friend!

Of course, such words weren't anything new as well but said by an exuberant monke, Four Eyes Light felt like maybe he would stumble upon such a class in the future!

"Haha! Thanks, man! You are a good guy!" Many people would find such thoughts annoying, but Michu cheered him on! It was a nice gesture, especially as they were friends for less than thirty minutes.

The monke laughed, "I will try betting! Is it okay for me if I want to be a participant too?"

"Yes. It's done by another guild, so you don't have to worry about that. Besides, they are strong advocates of privacy! Haha! I will help you, Michu," Michu already became his lucky sign, so Four Eyes Light promised to help with his information for free!

He would even share information about Michu's opponents so that he could climb higher! Of course, that was limited because all players couldn't be investigated. Nonetheless, Michu was all smiles as Yumi surely would like this news!

He and Four Eyes Light suddenly stopped.

"Oh, it's Zerze," Michu casually said.

"Y-yeah... It's him... Look at those eyes... He is so damn scary." Four Eyes Light took a step back. He was genuinely scared of this man, but people were visualizers by nature. They not only judged people by appearance but also acted based on it most of the time.

Michu found it a little sad.

After all, Zerze was alone. No one approached him, his Ice Spear his sole company.

Because of him, there was a wide gap in the waiting queue to sign for the Regional Tournament!

"Hey, what are you doing?" Four Eyes Light suddenly called out!

Why would he suddenly call Michu? Because Michu strutted toward Zerze whose eyes shifted to look at him as well.

Those blue eyes were cold and concealed a deep desire for victory!

"You have scary eyes," Michu smiled as he approached Zerze. Those eyes narrowed a little and looked down on him!

Zerze was 2 meters tall, so he was pretty high!

"My girlfriend also has scary eyes. But she is inwardly a very sweet person! It's rude of others to judge you based on your appearance, so... do you want to become my friend? We can hang out together here!" As a sign of friendship, Michu took out a banana.

Onlookers nearly burst out laughing, but they didn't dare so because of Zerze. His hand extended forward and grasped that banana after all! He eyed the status information, then peeled off the skin, "What do you want?"

"I want to become your friend."

"No, what do you want to achieve by becoming my friend?"

"Oh, I haven't thought about that... It was just sad to see you alone. Um, maybe we could go together for a quest? I am pretty strong!" Michu replied innocently.

And within those innocent eyes, Zerze found nothing suspicious.

Nothing was concealed here! Those brown eyes just hovered over him as if he was in an urgent need of company... As if Michu's eyes could see through that!

Zerze hid his Ice Spear within his inventory, then extended his hand forward, "Zerze... I am Zerze."

"I am Michu!"
