Aatrox, A God King In A Modern World

Chapter 74 - 74 - You lived under a rock?

"And now, Jackson, how are we gonna shoot our videos when we're all wet?" Kimmy complained when she realized it.

"Damn, I didn't think of that, I'll get you my shirt, you can wear it while we record the other three videos." Jackson answered.

Since the girls had come with a T-shirt, wearing one of Jackson's shirts wouldn't make much of a difference. 

The next video they'd shoot would be Kimmy's video. Jackson had some computers in his room ready to be used for gaming.  But Kimmy opted to play a game that would be more fun to play as a group. 

"Let's play Gartic!" she said cheerfully. 

"I love Gartic." Naomi said happy.

"I don't think I ever played Gartic." Jackson said while he was wondering if he'd ever played.

"What's Gartic?" Aatrox asked.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at him as if he were an alien. He didn't know the try to not laugh challenge and now he said he didn't know Gartic. Maybe he didn't have internet at home?

"Gartic is a game where each person will have their turn to draw. When their turn comes, the site will give them a theme and they have to draw that theme. The other people in the game try and guess what the first person is drawing. The first person to guess right gets the most points and the people after them will get less and less points after each correct guess. Whoever has the most points at the end wins." Kimmy explained patiently, but still having doubts as to why he didn't know Gartic.

"Sounds nice." Aatrox said excited. Those things that mortals invented for fun were very interesting to him.

Everyone sat in front of a computer with a webcam and entered the site. When everyone was ready, Kimmy started her video.

"Hello gamers! Do you see that screen? Yes! Today we'll play Gartic, but obviously I'm not alone, say hello to the public Jackson, Naomi and swordsman!" She said she was excited while picking on Aatrox calling him a swordsman.

When he heard her call him that, he facepalmed and began to accept it. Maybe he should really be called swordsman. "Hello people, I'm Benjamin Grey. The swordsman." He said looking at the webcam.

The match was very harmonious, everyone was surprised by Aatrox's inability to guess anything. But even more so with the skill he had in drawing. With the dexterity that he had in his hand, he was making very realistic drawings, to the point that it didn't even seem that he was drawing with the mouse.

When the video ended, Naomi finished first with 120 points, Jackson finished second with 106 points followed by Kimmy with 103 points. Looking at the scoreboard, they all looked at Aatrox with sordid eyes. That he was in last place with 58 points. The ones he got only when he drew, because he didn't guess right for any of the others drawings.

"I think the video will be a hit! Then we'll have to play GoA together." Kimmy said animatedly remembering the result of the video. Everyone made a lot of jokes and at times not even Benjamin had been able to control himself and had laughed a little.

"I have a friend at GoA who's a big fan of yours. She asked me for your autograph. I just remembered." Aatrox told her.

"Your friend at GoA, do you happen to play too?" She asked with excitement that he also played, since apparently he only liked to sing and act.

"Yeah, I've been playing again for a while." Aatrox answered quietly.

"That's great, send me your Nickname on Instagram, when I get home I'll add you!" She said as she picked up a sheet of paper and gave her signature to deliver his friend.

"Well, now we'll record whos music first?" Jackson asked.

"Ladies first, obviously." Aatrox answered.

Naomi was embarrassed, but she agreed, since for her it doesn't matter who would go first. If he wanted her to go first, she saw no reason to refuse.

"What song shall we sing?" Kimmy asked excitedly.

"I thought it would be easier if we did a challenge, just like Jackson did, only with music, and without water, please." Naomi said.

"A challenge? What are you thinking?" Jackson asked as he raised an eyebrow in curiosity.

"It will be the challenge of trying not to sing!" She said excited.

"Sounds nice, I've always wanted to record that kind of challenge." Jackson said excited.

"I love singing too, and in this challenge I can sing without someone judging my ugly voice." Kimmy said in a tone pretending to be sad.

"Try to not sing challenge?" Aatrox asked curious, but before they answered he said. "You're going to put on famous songs and we'll have to try not to sing along with the video?" he asked for confirmation.

"Yeah." Naomi confirmed it.

"Won't you tell us you've never seen a Try to not sing challenge before?" Kimmy asked incredulously.

"Actually, no." Aatrox answered honestly.

"Oh, my God, that's not possible, what do you mean? Did you live under a rock?" Kimmy asked.

"I can tell you when we're done recording the motive, but now it's no good, okay?" Aatrox said, since he knew that if he told them about the "accident", the atmosphere would get a little heavy and it would be difficult to record the rest of the videos.

They heard that and were excited to know why but didn't imagine it would be so sad.

Naomi started recording the video and introduced everyone, just like in the other videos. In her video, Naomi couldn't control herself on almost any song and sang almost all of them. Aatrox knew almost no music and when he was finishing, he hadn't sung anything. Even Jackson had sung some of his favorite songs that had been played.

But to everyone's surprise, the last video that came on was a video Aatrox knew. On the screen it showed a girl, roughly their age, with short blue hair, playing an instrument they had never seen that resembled a horizontal harp.

When she appeared, Aatrox became totally focused and unconsciously started singing along with the video accompanied by the other 3 youtubers. The energy that the singer had passed through the screen had infiltrated them and summoned the sad emotions making almost everyone cry along with her.

It was Angela Young again, by what Aatrox realized, this song of hers had made a lot of success and everyone was enjoying it. He wanted to have songs like that, too.
