Years had passed, yet Noelle was the only one who had achieved King's signature 12-hit combo. She and Cedric entered the game and seamlessly teamed up to clear dungeons together.

Cedric paused and asked, "Have you ever played a tank role?"

"No. I mostly play long-range gunner," Noelle replied.

"You could switch to be a tank. It might suit you better," Cedric suggested.

Noelle's pupils contracted at his words. Someone had said the same thing to her in her past life. They encouraged her to play tank. At that time, she had only wanted to play long-range gunner because Lucas' team needed one.

"Nothing," Noelle answered quickly. "Sir, do you have someone you like?"

"No. Why do you ask? Do you have someone you like?" Cedric asked in return. He narrowed his eyes slightly, concerned about her possibly having a crush at her age.
