Adopted Soldier

Alex was still stunned as he looked at Emily. This was the maid from his house, the one who taught him and his sister how to play video games. So it turns out she was Emily the hacker all this time, Alex wanted to question her but before he could say anything he had received a message. He took out his phone and read the message which stated.

"Heya young master, I know you have a lot of questions. So I'll answer them later, for now you gotta chill. Also don't tell them I'm a maid working for you. Why, shouldn't you tell... Well, think about it yourself, the only thing I can say is telling them might result in a chaotic event ? Either way everything is fun for me ?"

Alex looked at Emily and sighed. Ever since the beginning this maid seems to be playing with him, not only in game but in real life as well. This maid was like Sayaka, and what Sayaka was to Oliver and Kei, Emily was to Alex.

"Nice to finally meet you two in person. Alex and Rachel it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm Emily Hunt" Emily who was wearing a gothic lolita style dress did a curtsy. While doing all this alongside her cute features attracted a lot of attention from the surrounding people.

"Whoah look at that chick, is that cosplay?"

"I think so..."

"OH MY GOD! It's bloody princess Eva! Have I finally transmigated into the 2-D world!"

"Are they shooting a live action series of Bloody Princess? The other girls are cute as well!"

"Eva please say your catchphrase, and after please take a picture with me. Then after that please go on a date with me, then marry me, then start a family with me, then grow old together with me!"

The people started to swarm towards Emily. Turns out Emily was doing a cosplay of a very famous magical girl type anime character.

Emily who had a lot of people taking pictures of her didn't get angry, instead she did a weird pose ,and spoke in a different tone of voice.

"It's time for the eternal night. Bow down before me." Emily's whole persona seems to change as she looked down on the people surrounding her. Some of them actually knelt in front of Emily. Alex and the others looked at Emily dumbfounded at the whole situation.

"WHOAH! It's the real thing!"

"Who knew I would actually hear that line IRL! I can die now with no regrets!"

"EVA the angel of death and darkness has descended before us!"

"Quiet down you peons! Kneel before your queen." Emily pointed her index finger downwards, and the shouting people all knelt in front of her. It was an amazing spectacle.

"OUR QUEEN!"

There was only thirteen minutes left before the start of the tournament, so while Emily was having fun, Alex and everyone else held a group meeting.

"It seems like Emily is preoccupied at the moment. I apologize for this. Anyway let's go to the registration booth, so do we each need to register individually?" Oliver asked Kim Suho who responded with his usual irritated tone.

"No need I already registered the players. It's going to be Emily, Niel, Blair, Alex, and me. Also the actual game will start an hour from now, so Emily can have her fun for the moment."

"Actually who is Emily cosplaying as?" Sayaka finally asked the question most of them wanted to ask.

"That's the main character from the hit anime series Bloody Princess. She's Evangeline Cromwell, a.k.a Eva. Here I'll show you a pic." Shin showed everyone a picture of Eva. When the group saw the picture of Eva, they were amazed on how much Emily looked like the character.

"Wow, so not only is she a God level gamer, a great hacker, she's also A high level cosplayer. Emily is so awesome!" Sayaka happily, and excitedly spoke what she thought.

Kei on the other hand, once again confirmed that he was the only normal person in his club.

"Can someone tell me what cosplay is? Based solely on the word and the topic at hand I can only assume that it's suppose to be costume play or something similar." Alex asked confused at the whole conversation.

"You are right to assume that. Here let me explain, Cosplay is an act of dressing up to look like an anime, manga, video game character. The ones who do this are called cosplayers, which Emily is one of. Also Cosplay can be divided into two parts, basic cosplay and masquerade cosplay. Both types of cosplay involve trying to physically look like the character, including speaking like the character, memorizing quotes and so on. Masquerading, or "The Masquerade," usually refers to a cosplay competition where cosplayers demonstrate their skills in creating costumes, putting on skits, and in technical matters. Right now Emily is doing the basic cosplay." Shin suddenly bombarded Alex with information.

While the group were having this discussion, things were becoming even weirder on Emily's side. The people had form a line and were now asking for Emily's autograph.

"My lady will you grace this lowly one, with an autograph?"

"Heh, are you asking me for something? I don't feel like you're showing enough respect. Why should I reward a worthless peon like you?"

The man in front of Emily bowed down his head hitting the ground.

"Oh beautiful, wonderfully powerful Princess. The night is yours to command, please grant this lowly one an autograph." The man said the lines of what the servants under Eva usually say in the anime, when they were being the most respectful.

"Hmph, you have done well to show me such respect. Very well I shall grant you what you desire." Emily then signed the piece of paper the guy brought to her.

The next guy did the same, so did the next, and the next.

Emily was actually having fun doing this. While she was doing this she suddenly thought of something.

'Oh how about I show young master, and Lilitth-chan the world of anime. Once I get them hooked we could all cosplay together.'

Alex who was having a conversation with the gaming club members, felt a sudden chill. He felt like something ominous was about to happen.

'Oh right I should punish that Oliver as well. I'll force him to cosplay, that might be interesting.' Emily suddenly remembered what happened with the arcade event.

Now it was Oliver who felt a sudden chill. He couldn't understand what was happening, all he knows was this was the second time he felt this chill. He might have a cold, is what he thought.. Unknown to him that feeling was something much, much worse than a simple cold.
