Chapter 2: Whose Daughter Is It?
" Can you stand?" Daniel asked as he think about what to say to cheer himself since he's optimistically weird, then there's a sudden thrust of a sentence inside his head, he gave off a soft chuckle.
' I can't believe I'm going to say this for the second time'
As he look at Josh's trembling state, he tapped Josh's shoulder and asked, as if testing, " What did I tell you to call me?"
" "Ace" B-but, I'm not allowed to call you that anymore! You said only your close ones are allowed call you that! Right?! I'm not su-" Josh was stopped because Daniel covered his mouth by slapping it lightly(?).
" I don't want to fight alone anymore" Daniel said seriously, he doesn't want to hear another ironic stuff for the day so he said it quickly.
Josh gasped before he chased his breathe, few seconds later and he's more energetic than ever.
"I don't want to fight alone anymore" is the most accurate and effective cheer to Daniel since he fight alone all his lives, Saying that to himself will certainly give him a giant hope but since the effect is transmitted to Josh, it's more than enough for a comfort. . .
[Congratulations on breaking the record of the "fastest friend to cheer one another",
Reward money: 1000xen]
[Congratulations on successfully fighting the last attempt on breaking your friendship,
Reward money:500xen]
'The last?did that God seriously deleted the others?' Daniel noticed. There's suppose to be ten of them but only four left: the Riddle: find and hunt, Mirrors: Find me, Death: Commit suicide or homicide, and Worth: Rooms of regret.
[Where would you like to be moved now? [In your room], [market], or the [next game]?] The game system asked them both.
"The market"
"The room"
The two said at the same time. Of course the diligent one would like to go purchase some foods while the lazy one would like to sleep all day.
Josh tapped on Daniel's shoulder and was about to tell him to go to the market first to buy a few stuffs before going to their room to rest.
" Hiss" Daniel hissed, hurting where Josh put his hands on, he draw a distance between them.
" Eh? What? Why are you hissing?" Josh asked confusedly, though deep within his thoughts, he think Daniel is like a cat.
" Just now, what did you do?" He asked.
" Huh? I lightly tapped your shoulder, why do you have to react like that?" Josh asked.
[Due to player Joshua Mikagura's pureness, Player Rhaffael Sanchez who specialize in black magic will be burnt by his pureness, as the game who wants its players to be safe, I would advised you not to form any further skinship with each other as long as possible] the screen appeared, late and absurd as always. Saying that it wants their players to be safe even though the game himself is a never ending Pain, never ending death, and never ending life.
The two was speechless, how will they do their greeting where they fist bump and headbutt each other if they're not allowed to touch?.
" Are you a saint or something?" Asked Daniel to Josh.
" That's what my status said so, it says that I'm a reincarnation of a saint, how about you? How did you specialize dark magic?" Josh asked curiously.
Daniel close his eyes as he smile to signal Josh to stop the topic, when he accidentally clicked the [Next].
They were sent Infront of a giant mansion with a wide red screen that says:
[ Spending time with a friend is nice, but spending time with a friend in a haunted house is NICER!]
[ Please stay, well, you have no choice anyway. Live for a night and a reward will be given, die and a beautiful experience in hell awaits. ENJOY]
" Sorry, I accidentally clicked the last one" Daniel apologized.
" It's fine, I like horror stuff the most, you should be worrying about yourself, you don't watch horror movie with me so I suspected that you're the one who's afraid" Josh smiled as he walk inside with Daniel following behind.
" Are you making fun of me right now?"
Josh shook his head with a smile on his face, he's honest but just a little loose of tongue.
" I. am. not. afraid." Daniel said word by word. ' Why would I be afraid? This is my game. . .'
" Err. . . You don't have to be shy" Josh smiled, giving Daniel a time to confess something that doesn't exist.
Daniel sighed, " Look, if you think I'm afraid, shall we split up?" He suggested.
" Sure sure, please don't cry when you see a ghost-" Josh chimed jokingly as he plod away.
Daniel turn around only to see himself in front of a female ghost dressed in a white dress with blood all over her body, she's currently upside down and staring at Daniel's glazed eyes.
". . . Hi" Daniel waved before walking past the female ghost.
The female ghost who got pissed off from his weak reaction kept on pestering him until she scared the heart out of him . . . but it never happen.
"~~~~~"
' Huh? is it my imagination?' Daniel asked himself when he heard Josh's faint voice.
" h. . .n!"
"h. . .ne!"
" That circle on top of his head. . . he's already hypnotized. . ." Daniel muttered.
"ho. . .ne!"
" HONEEEEEY!!!!!"
Josh shouted repeatedly as he run to Daniel, Josh's words made him flinch as his eyes slightly widened.
' Say what. . .?" Daniel asked for he doesn't get what Josh is saying.
Josh finally caught Daniel and so, he said while panting:
" Honey! Our daughter said she talked to our maid about ghost not existing!! But we doesn't even have a maid!" Josh reported with his trembling voice.
" Pfft" Daniel shook from all his laughing. ' Pfft haha, just what in the world is this!?"
" H-honey! why are you laughing?! our daughter is haunted!" Josh sobbed.
" Whose daughter? Pfft haha, we're both men, whose womb did that child came out of?" Daniel asked as he continue laughing.
" You. . .?"
Daniel froze.
" Oi!"
