Greatest Streamer System

"I am home."

"I am intruding!"

Lily and Ferin entered the apartment room as Max lay on the couch. He raised his body at the latter’s loud noise.

"Welcome."

Max greeted before focusing on Lily. She sat beside him while complaining.

"My feet hurt. Ferin dragged me to so many boutiques."

Since the Couple Island Paradise shooting ended, Lily had became increasingly closer to him. She became more intimate and spoiled as well.

Max liked it as he hugged her. He had also stepped up his physical closeness. If she liked it like this, then he would touch, hug, cuddle her whenever she want. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"You don’t like shopping?" He asked as he massaged her legs. Lily closed her eyes as she enjoyed it.

"It’s tiring." She replied.

"Right." Ferin cut in as she sat on the chair. "But you really enjoyed it when trying those clothes. You even asked me whether Breeze will like it or not." She teased while grinning.

"F-Ferin!" Lily blushed. Max chuckled as he rubbed her cheeks.

"Really? Which clothes did you try? I want to see it." He asked as Ferin’s mouth curved upward into a grin.

"There is this sexy dress that-"

"Sh-shut up!" Lily covered Ferin’s mouth before glaring at Max. "Forget it! It’s embarrassing!"

Max smiled innocently before hugging her tightly. "Why? I am interested. Don’t hide it from me. Tell me, Lily~"

Lily glared at him before punching his chest lightly. Max pretended to be hurt before smiling.

"Ouch, this is domestic violence!" He complained.

"Shut up!" Lily shouted while pouting. "It’s not when we’re not engaged or married yet!"

"So you want to marry me?" Max asked.

"What? N-no!" Lily quickly denied as her face reddened. "Ferin, say something!"

"Me?" Ferin raised her brows. "I won’t let you marry her, Breeze! Lily is mine!"

"Hey!" Lily glared at Ferin before sighing. "You two... You always bully me like this!"

Max and Ferin laughed as Lily pouted again. Her annoyed expression was cute that Max kissed her cheek.

"I was just joking. So, what clothes did you buy?" He asked again. Lily sighed as she showed him her shopping bag.

"Take it. There is yours as well." She said.

Max accepted the bag and peeked into it. Inside were clothes for men, most of them were casual and easy to wear.

"Thanks." He thanked as Lily nodded. Max opened another bag and found various dresses, skirts, and other clothes he didn’t know what it was called. "These are nice. You have good taste."

Max complimented as Ferin crossed her arms proudly.

"Of course! I recommended these brands to her."

The recommendation of a top model was trustworthy indeed.

Max looked at Lily.

"By the way, do you want to collab with me and my friends to play a horror game?" He asked. "I plan to invite Princess Peach, MadLad, his crush Amelia, and Flexy. We will play a horror game together."

Lily widened her eyes before nodding.

"Sure. When will it be?" She asked.

"Tomorrow, I guess. I am contacting them now to ask whether they’re available or not." He hummed, turning to Ferin. "What about you, Ferin? Do you want to join? You can invite your boyfriend as well. The game supports up to 8 players."

Ferin blinked before shaking her head.

"Well, as much as I want to join, Atlas don’t really like horror game or something scary. But, I will ask him. I will tell you later if he wants to join or not."

"Got it."

"Horror game?" Flexy asked. Max nodded as he explained.

"Yep. A multiplayer horror game. How about it? Are you available tomorrow?"

Flexy thought for a while before replying.

"Tomorrow... Yeah, I am free. Who else is joining?"

Max listed the ones he had contacted so far. Flexy was the first since he didn’t know when the guy was available. He said he was busy with the sponsorship before so Max was worried he couldn’t play any game anymore.

Turned out he was wrong.

"Cool. So it’s Roach Planet’s team + 3 of your friends. Sounds fun! Alright, count me in." Flexy agreed easily. "Lisa will also come and watch me stream. Want me to promote it?"

Max smiled.

"Of course. Thanks. And I will upload the Streamer Wars stuff in my Strike account. Share it for me." He requested.

"No problem, buddy! Hahaha, now I am looking forward to it. Horror game with everyone? That sounds awesome! I am looking forward to their scream." Flexy laughed.

Max ended the call before contacting the next person. He didn’t ask Lily since he knew she was available tomorrow. Everyone he asked was unexpectedly available.

"Sure, why not?" MadLad agreed. Amelia also replied with the same answer.

"Hmph! I guess this Princess will give you her time tomorrow!"

Princess Peach acted arrogant as usual when he contacted her. Max rolled his eyes upon hearing it.

"Thanks, Peach." He replied dryly.

"It’s natural for a Princess to grant the peasant’s wish. Oh, is this Princess’ friend also join? She’s okay, no? I am worried she disappeared after the concert."

"Lily is fine. And yeah, she will join us to play horror game tomorrow." Max replied. Princess Peach giggled.

"Good then! Okay, Breeze. See you tomorrow."

Max ended the call before sighing. Everyone was able to join tomorrow, only Ferin and Atlas were left.

Honestly, he didn’t have high expectations for them, knowing how busy they were with modeling and their main game, Horizon Online. He had owed Atlas a lot for his help in his Synchronization Test event.

And just as he had thought, they weren’t able to join.

[Ferin: Sorry! Atlas doesn’t like horror game :(]

Max read the message Ferin sent him before messaging her back.

[Breeze: It’s okay. Thanks for the news.]

Ferin replied again.

[Ferin: Also, he said he couldn’t join since we had a photoshoot tomorrow. I totally forgot about it!]

Max nodded in understanding. He replied again before telling Lily the news. Lily was disappointed, but she understood.

Everyone had their own schedules. Ferin and Atlas were models while the others streamers. There was no need to force them to join as it might ruin their schedule.

"What kind of game will we play tomorrow?" She asked curiously as she cuddled to him on the couch. Max patted her head as he told her.

"It’s called Backroom 5. It’s a multiplayer horror game where we have to find the way out from an abandoned hospital. There are monsters and ghosts inside that will hunt us."

Lily frowned when she heard it.

"Ghost? I don’t like ghosts..." She muttered as Max hugged her.

"Really? That’s perfect. I really want to see your frightened face." He whispered in her ear. Lily pouted as she pinched his side. Max laughed as he continued. "Don’t worry. They’re not real ghosts. It’s just a game."

Lily nodded.

"Okay." She replied. "I guess they won’t be as scary as I thought."

Max chuckled when he heard it.

’Yeah... You’ll see.’ He thought evilly as he hugged her again. Lily closed her eyes as she leaned onto his shoulder.

Sometimes, expectation could be a trap.

Tomorrow would be interesting.

Max couldn’t wait for it.
