chapter-91
Seeing his calm and confident smile, Tiana felt as if his words carried a sense of security that made her feel more relaxed.
She then took a deep breath and said, "Alright. Let's do it your way. Remember, victory or lose, we at least tried our best."
Tiana's teammates had a confused look but seeing how adamant Tiana was about her decision, they didn't say anything back no matter how ridiculous it seemed.
"Hehe, hey Wildcats, better think about how to fulfill those bets, eh?" John chuckled from the other side as he whistled.
Viktor looked at John and said in a calm tone, "John, you shouldn't talk too much. You know, back in my village, we say the chickens crow a lot because they are trying to imitate the talking of humans but are too brainless to realize they can't. So they keep on doing it. So I suggest you stop talking before people misunderstand."Tiana burst into laughter just like others who heard Viktor, "Pfttt, right-o, Dorian. Nice one. Ya hear that Johnny boy? You better look before shooting unless you wanna accidentally fire on up your...well..." Tiana smirked.
John's posture became rigid as veins twanged in his neck, and he felt that this Dorian guy was more annoying than what he appeared. He, however, didn't say anything back since he didn't feel like he should lower his status as a pro to talk with a noob.
So far, he saw how Dorian barely had any impact in their match, and even the kills he got were because he either had help or he got lucky with grenades.
Some of the spectators were enjoying the verbal spat between them and especially took note of 'Goodboi', the only male playing for the Wildcats and also knew how to make good use of his words against the opposing team.
Most men were jealous that he got to play with hot beauties, especially the Snow Queen. But they could only blame their luck for not having such close connections.
This match was also kind of different than the usual ones since professional teams usually respected each other rather than cuss or ridicule each other in between the game, that too publicly.
If something like that happened then, it would mean the teams don't value sportsmanship. But everyone here understood why these two teams were like this, at least the ones who saw everything take place from the start.And they also knew that everything reached this stage because of 'Goodboi'.
The match soon started, and Viktor smiled as he went off in a different direction in the game map while Tiana and her friends stuck together in the other direction.
Viktor knew that CT's camp or took defensive positions near the bombsite to keep a lookout for T's and push them back.
Since he was a T now, he already took note of the common places the Beast Men hid and decided to take out the most skilled player in their team, and it was indeed John.
He already noticed how John loves to camp a hidden spot behind a wooden door. It was a good spot since it was in the middle of the map, and he could quickly move between the two bomb sites.
John also continuously quick peek between the opening of the door to check for any enemies but wouldn't shoot at them.
Instead, he tries to fake bait himself so that his enemies would rush out to kill him, and he would use the help of his teammates to take them all down.
Viktor decided to fool him at his own game and decided to throw a decoy behind the door, which would mimic the sound of the sniper he was holding.
He then fired his gun at the same time at the door behind which John was camping. After firing a few times more, he stopped shooting and quietly walked to a different spot while the decoy continued to make the bullet sounds.
John snickered, thinking that someone from the Wildcats team was trying to kill him through the door but was miserably missing.
After counting the sound of the sniper being fired ten times, he decided to take a peek, feeling overconfident that the shooter must be reloading their gun since he recognized what kind of sniper they were using based on the sound and knew how many bullets it can fire before needing a reload.
But when John peeked towards the direction from which he heard those gunshots, he was taken aback to see that there was no one. And before he could even move back, he saw a face pop up on his screen with a gun pointing right at his head point-blank.
Even if he had the reaction speed of a Godbot, he knew he was fucked, and just as expected, his head burst like a balloon of blood as he died in-game.
"No!!!" John hysterically shouted, feeling humiliated that he fell for such a trick, and glowered at the Wildcats sitting on the other side. But the girls all seemed too busy to even pay him any mind, and of course, they couldn't even hear him because of the headphones.
However, he suddenly saw Dorian smiling at him and even giving him a subtle thumbs-up, which made his facial features twist and twist until it looked like he was forced to eat shit.
However, in the game, everyone was surprised to see the kill-feed appearing on the top right corner of their screen.
[ Goodboi killed IWasReloading with AWP - Headshot ]
'Haa...he at least knows how to pick a dumb IGN…' Viktor inwardly chuckled and saw how people who knew him were referring to his IGN as IWR, a short form for his IGN.
"A phenomenal and unbelievable headshot from Goodboi who took IWR by surprise. Incredible! I can't believe it. The newcomer Goodboi took out the leader of the Beast Men. Is this the sign of a comeback?!" The commentator was spewing saliva as he excitedly remarked about Goodboi's kill on the official stream.
But there was an uproar going among the audience and even the players from both teams since they could hardly believe their eyes seeing the name Goodboi as the one who just killed John, the most skilled player among the Beast Men and a headshot at that.
John's teammates got distracted by his sudden death and even glanced at him, wondering how he let a noob kill him so easily.
"Goodboi!" Tiana and her friends were also shocked and wanted to ask how he did it.
Viktor immediately said to his team, "Now! Rush and take the site! I have diverted their attention!"
Tiana knew now was not the time to bask in that momentary kill nor ask Dorian to satisfy her curiosity. So as soon as she got Dorian's cue, she and her team made a perfect execution of their four-person strat and caught John's teammates by surprise.
And just as expected, the Wildcats easily won the round since they took out their leader first and then used the element of surprise to take over the momentarily distracted Beast Men.
"FUCK!!" John removed his headphones and almost smashed it on the table before he stopped himself as he tried his best to calm down, knowing that he had no reason to rage yet since his team was still leading by 5 points.
"John, how did you even die?" One of his teammates asked with a confused expression as the rest of his teammates perked their ears as well.
"Hmph, he just used a despicable trick and got lucky!" John said in a loud tone, making sure everyone heard him.
Viktor removed his headphones and said with a calm smile, "Is that so? I am sorry that you saw it as a despicable trick. I am just a noob and wouldn't know any professional tricks. But do you mean that all the pros out there would fall for this despicable trick of mine? I wonder if they might think the same."
John clenched his fists, thinking that Dorian was becoming more of an eyesore, and his calm smile was only irking him even more. He knew that Dorian was trying to make him look bad before all the pros around the world who might be spectating this game online, and of course, this could even include international pros who might look down on him if he agrees to what Dorian said.
But if he didn't, then that would mean he doesn't consider himself a pro.
Feeling that he got trapped by him, he decided to change things around the usual way. He first called for a short pause and then got up from his seat as he pointed at Dorian and called out, "Alright. To prove that you didn't get lucky or used a despicable trick, how about we make a bet of who kills who first? Just between us, of course."
Viktor's lips curved as he thought, 'I didn't even have to try, and here you are eagerly walking into my trap...sigh...sometimes people are too dumb and easy…'
