Chapter 37 - Puppets

Adam: But why nooot!?

Greg: Just trust me, as always. Anyway, change the topic. When will you play?

Adam: I- Duh, you are so annoying! I will play on the third day, with Oli also...

Greg: I CANT BELIEVE IT!!!

Adam: G- GREG? What's wrong?

Greg: THIS- huhh... This is not a coincidence!

Adam: It's not... What do you mean?

Greg: The CEO... is a fucking mastermind!

Adam: What? What are you talking about Greg? I don't get what you are saying!

Greg: ... The more we play... The more I feel like that we all are just puppets for him... Like... Literally.

Adam: Puppets? What? You suggest that he controls us?

Greg: Not literally, but...

Adam: Wait, you said all of us, does that include... Todor?

Greg: I don't know but... It would perfectly make sense... Why would he let Todor hack the entire system and then not even try to stop him?

Adam: Greg! You are crazy! There is no way! How and why would one manipulate the entire show like this?

Greg: Why? You ask why? The CEO... he surely knows what would get the most views. He might know humanity damn too well!

Adam: Greg... There is something that I don't get...

Greg: Adam, you said you will play with Oli, right?

Adam: Hu- Yeah, why?

Greg: No matter what happens, cooperate with Oli somehow! He mustn't lose!

Adam: G- Greg, I'm getting more and more confused. Isn't he our opponent?

Greg: I don't care if in your eyes he is an opponent or not, make him win! No, that is not the right way to put it, do not let him getting eliminated from this show!~~

Adam: What should I do exactly?

Greg: I have a plan, let's find Oli!

The day has passed. It was day 1 of the Voting Session game, Bandeer played on the first day as well as Tomi. Bandeer was able to secure his win by getting the most votes, but unfortunately for Tomi, he couldn't win, which means he is technically eliminated from the show.

Then it was day 2 - the matchup that everyone is waiting for is: Brielle; Greg; James; Todor

Radio: The next match is about to happen, just in 10 minutes, please, Brielle, Greg, James and Todor, go to the main hall. Your match is about to start.

Greg: Huh, alright, wish me luck.

Adam: Yeah... Good luck, can you win? I mean is there a chance?

Greg: Does it seem like it? My situation is not the best, but I have 4 points, even if I lose I can keep trying. See you soon.

Greg walks slowly towards the main hall, as he steps in, all other three players are there, but the referee is not yet.

Todor: Well, what's up Greg?

Greg: What do you think?

Todor: Feeling hopeless, don't you?

Greg: Hah... haha, you want an honest answer? I am actually not.

Todor: Oh? Really? That is interesting, this match is guaranteed mine, you know?

Greg: What about that? That has nothing to do with the fact if I feel hopeless or not.

Todor: Whatever... It does not really matter what you say, no matter if you lie, I won, Greg. The game is about to start, you see? The referee is coming.

Referee: I am here, Everyone ready?

Todor, Brielle and James: "Yes."

Greg: ... Of course, I was never more ready than I am now.

Referee: Then the game starts now officially! Turn 1 begins! The turn will end when everyone is done with what they want to do!

Everyone have 0 votes and 100 VMP

The moment the game started, Todor and his teammates - Brielle and James - started trading instantly.

Greg: Hey, what are you guys talking about? Trading already? Can I join?

Todor, Brielle, James: No.-

Todor: I told you Greg, better give up.

Greg: Oh? I never said I wanna win this match.

Todor: And even if it's true, why are you smiling?

Brielle: Come on Todor, who cares? He is just a loser! He sure just going crazy only by thinking about losing-

Greg: Todor, why I came here is not to trade. I know it's useless. I would rather just... Talk with you a little.

Brielle: Talk? Haha! about what? Just talking won't win you the game! I told you you're going crazy!

Greg: Just shut up, I only want to talk to Todor, how many damn times I have to tell you I don't care about winning this game?

Brielle: Hey! Look at your mouth I'm a girl you know!

Todor: It's okay, stop. Greg, so what would you want to talk about?

Greg: You said you wanna be the new CEO, right? So you think it's possible to take over?

Todor: It is possible, I know it for a fact.

Greg: And so you said you know his identity, so what's his name?

Todor: I can't tell you.

Greg: Is it the winner of the previous season of BWCG?

Todor: Why do you think that?

Greg: His voice on the TV. It's him right? Why didn't you tell me?

Todor: I guess no use of hiding it, yeah it's him, of course you would deduce it.

Greg: Did he not allow you to tell this to anyone?

Todor: nailed it.

Greg: I wonder the reason, but then this means I was right after all.

Brielle: Enough of it! Let's get through it fast!

Greg: Wait, there is one more thing. How can you take over---

Referee: I kindly ask all the players to play instead of useless chatting!

Greg (Huh... Interesting... They cannot show the live to the globe while we talk about it right? It's a big secret we are in! I wonder if Todor noticed, since we started talking about this topic, the cameras stopped blinking a red light, so they were not showing us live. This is something that the world mustn't know!)

Greg: hahaha... Alright, then let's get through this!
