The Over-Break System

Chapter 507 The Second Event: SRD- Search, Retrieve, Destroy (1)

Snapping his eyes open and gulping down a deep breath, Cynrik fought the momentary panic associated with dying in VR and had to catch his breath to calm his rapidly beating heart rate. Although he wasn't afraid of death, the amount of pain he experienced by self-destructing his Codex was intense, thus his initial panic upon waking up.

'Fuck, ok, Tobs, add Codex destruction to the list of things I SHOULDN'T EVER DO!' Cynrik complained as he subconsciously flexed his right arm before raising it over his face to examine.

-Noted…not that I should need to.-

[[Are you alright, Darling?]] While Cynrik was recovering mentally, Selene's worried voice entered his head, causing him to smile.

[[Yeah, Babe, I'm fine, just trying to collect myself. As it turns out, losing an arm and then blowing up your Codex is pretty traumatic.]] Resting his right forearm against his forehead, Cynrik allowed his body to relax and waited to hear back from Brance.

Before he had "popped" his Codex, Cynrik had told his brother to fight as long as possible and contact him through the mind link when he was eliminated so they could exit the VR capsules together.

[You were amazing out there, Cyn, it was difficult for us to keep a straight and emotionless face watching your performance, and oh my god, you should have seen the looks on the Romeoville Teams faces.]]

[[At first, they were all proud when they came out of their Capsules, especially the dickhead captain, but when he saw you and Brancie fighting, hehe, it looked like he shit himself in fear.]]

Speaking in the usual bubbly tone she used only when talking privately with her boyfriend, Selene peeked over at the Romeoville team while remembering their stunned faces when their captain was eliminated from the Swarm Event.

[[Figures, they probably thought we were pushovers, tsk; I wish I could've seen the looks on their faces.]] Chuckling to himself in the darkness of his VR capsule, Cynrik closed his eyes and waited.

[[Don't worrrrryy Darling~, I totes snapped a pic for you with my Watcet; I'll show you later. Even the refs were freaking out when you guys made a run for the record. We were watching the whole thing on the wall projector. You were so handsome out there; I am proud of you, my love. Hehe, plus…I'm wearing that thing you like for good luck.]] Discreetly biting her bottom lip, Selene dropped a bombshell on Cynrik that caused him to sit up and bump his head on the capsule.

[[RED PANTIES! YOU DID THE THING, HAHAHA! I Told you, Babe, it was going to be a red panty night!]] Excitement bloomed in Cynrik's mind as he imagined Selene wearing nothing but the expensive Red lingerie set.
[[Of course, only the best for you, my darllling~]]

[[FUCKING GROSS! I come out of being killed only to wish I had died for real!]] Brance suddenly cried upon waking up in his capsule, only to hear the flirty conversation between his brother and Selene.

[[HAHAHAHAH! Get wrekt Brancie.]] Selene and Cynrik chirped in unison, causing Brance to groan in despair.

​ [[Can we get out of these screaming metal deathtraps already?]] Fighting the urge to puke, Brance checked his body with [Mana Sight], and upon realizing he was in one piece, he looked over at the release handle positioned by his right shoulder and grabbed it.

[[Yeah, on three.]]

TSSSSSS

The two VR capsules hissed as they released the stale pressurized air and swung open, revealing the brothers.

In Sync, Cynrik and Brance swung their legs over the right side of the capsule and exited before standing beside the device until they received a nod from the two stunned referees.

Upon receiving the go-ahead, Cynrik stepped forward and walked to the center of the room, where one referee and the Captain of Romeoville were standing.

Once lined up correctly on the right side of the ref, the man caught Cynrik's wrist and raised his arm as a sign of victory before speaking.

"Event One: Swarm, winner VSFA. Since your team has broken the record, you receive 20 points. Due to the duration of the first Event, you are allowed to take a 30-minute break before beginning the SRD Event.

After releasing the young man's arm, the referee looked to Cynrik for acknowledgment but was stunned to see him shaking his head.

"There's no need; we are good to go; we can begin the next event when the staff is ready." Shooting a cocky and confident glance at the Romeoville captain, making him flinch, Cynrik smirked and said clearly for the cameras to hear.

"VSFA chooses to forgo the allowed break. Captains, you may take your positions, and on my command, your teams may enter their VR Capsules."

With that said, Cynrik retreated to his capsule and summoned Vie, and Sie, causing both the Referees and Team Romeoville to stare at him in surprise.

Back in the studio, Cesar couldn't control himself and yelled out in shock upon seeing the appearance of two pets from Cynrik.

Cesar: "What the hell is that kid's class? He moves like an Assassin, fights like a swordsman, and wields magic like an ArchMage, yet he also has two pets like a Tamer!"

Roni: "I have no clue what to think anymore; Cynrik is an enigma that I can't read. We can't even get a clear picture of his stat Build at Tier-3. If you look at his Survey Charts, he invested heavily in AGI and DEX, which explains the short swords he uses. But unlike the standard Assassin Build, he has also invested points into his INT stat."

Tapping on the desk's touchscreen, Roni opened the document with Cynrik's Tier-2 stat sheet and went through it again.

Cesar: "I find it strange; it's like Cynrik doesn't want to fully put his eggs in any one basket, which after seeing how he fights, is understandable. If I had to describe the young man's combat style in one word, It would be versatile. He adjusts to the flow of battle so quickly and fills into the role of ranged DPS, or vanguard."

Roni: "And now he throws us for a loop by summoning two Avian pets. Based on their size, it's safe to assume both have already learned a resizing skill, meaning they are, at the bare minimum, Tier-2. Why is he bringing them out for the SRD event and not using them in the Swarm Event?"

Cesar: "It's common knowledge that Tamers tend to make it further in the Swarm event due to having more friendly attackers, but Cynrik threw that idea out of the window and went into the battle with a handicap."

Cesar: "Roni, you calling him an Enigma fits too well. I can't get a read on him. His brother, however, seems to be going with a standard warrior build, investing in STR and VIT, which, once paired with the appropriate armor, allows him to take a big hit and keep on ticking."

Back in the Pinhurst Mansion…


"That's because he didn't want to reveal them too early; aww, look how healthy little Vii and Sie are; they look adorable and so obedient," Cinyah said with her right hand pressed against her cheek with practically visible hearts in her eyes.

"Oh my, if you're like this with Cyn's pets, I can't imagine how you will react when your boys have children." Maeve teased while poking Cinyah's cheek.

"OH OH OH, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MY GRANDBABIES, Tsk, but we have to wait a few more years for Selene and Gabby to grow up enough for children." Clicking her tongue and meeting the expectant eyes of Mrs. Sanford, the two mothers shared a look of understanding, realizing that it was nearly time to start pressuring their kids into getting serious with their relationships.
