Naomi absolutely did not want to get friendzoned by Rudra , however it was hard to say anything when he was being soo sweet about it. Maybe it meant a lot to him, and it would be rude of her to say that she wanted to be more than friends in this particular moment.

Hence tactically turning the topic she asked

" No female friends huh ... Only girlfriends I suppose

".

Rudra facepalmed himself and started to chuckle , he said

" I wish .... Actually I've never properly dated a girl , the only date I've ever gone to was with Yua , and as for a girlfriend I've never had one, actually you are the first girl I've brought to my room

".

Naomi was extremely jealous that Rudra went on a date with Yua , however hearing how it was only once and that he had never had a girlfriend and how she was the first one to come to his room , she smiled. Seems like the road was seemingly clear.

Building up the courage , she asked

" Soo ... Is there someone you like ...?

".

Rudra looked at Naomi for a moment , then blinked twice before smiling and saying

" Yes

".

It was an ambiguous answer , that unleashed a torrent of emotions inside Naomi. She did not know who Rudra was reffering to, his manner of speach was hinting Naomi that it was her , yet she could never be sure.

This would remain a mystery in her mind for now .... The question of , does he like her?

---------

The individual events continued for the next few days , as the Elites continued to shine on the world stage.

**G bagged a gold in the trialthon event , having a total time of half the silver medal winner. It was a convincing performance as he looked like a man on a mission.

Karna got a silver in his second event , while Medivh , Cola , Rhino and PoisonToadGamakichi won bronze medals.

Skyla and Bo lost their bronze medal matches to come at fourth place.

Overall at the end of individual events , the medal tally was

1) USA : 9 Gold , 4 silver , 13 Bronze

2) Japan: 7 Gold , 2 Silver , 9 Bronze

3) China : 6 Gold , 11 Silver , 5 Bronze

4) India : 6 Gold , 5 silver , 11 Bronze

5) UK : 4 Gold , 0 silver , 1 bronze

6) Indonesia : 2 Gold , 1 Silver , 1 bronze

.

250) Antarctica : 0 gold , 0 silver , 0 bronze.

Japan was in an overall secure position with only 5 more events to play, with them expecting medals in the capture the flag , dodgeball and national battleground event.

Dodgeball was the first group event , where **G was participating.... Him working on his reflexes day in and day out had made them laser sharp , as he was a force to reckon with on the dodgeball field.

**G was a driven man after his loss in the prison escape event .... He had this mad drive to proove himself , and to become even better than he was yesterday. However Alas Dodgeball was a team event , and even though , he was undoubtedly the best individual player with insane agility . Team japan was weak , and as it was a team event , **G could only bring home a bronze for the country.

A completely different scenario awaited on the second day of the event , where Rudra participated in the national battleground. Him , Yume , Nero and Neatwit , absolutely steamrolled through the opposition in the event. Having 43 eliminations and winning the event by a huge margin.

The opponents had a psychological fear of facing Shakuni, which lead them to making unnecessary mistakes in fighting him. However it was to be expected as Rudra was a changed man ever since winning the one v one fight. Gaining more confidence in his skills , he had an threatening aura around him. Bolder in his attack strategies and ruthless in achieving his results , only destruction awaited his opponents.

Japan bagged a gold in the national battleground event , hence securing their position in the top five , irrespective of whoever won or lost the next matches.

This came as a huge releif to the Japanese officials , and Ethan Grey , who started to plot Mithun Ambani 's demise.

Rudra on the other hand was the first player in the game to achieve a triple gold medal , as his legend went down in the history books. It was not announced yet however Rudra knew the rewards that would come with the closing ceremony. With his triple gold medals , he could finally get his hands on a LEGENDARY grade equipment. Just the very thought made him as excited as a six year old before a school trip.

The next two days were uneventful , as Japan could not get past the first few rounds in the other individual events , untill finally it was the last day and time for capture the flag event . The last event for the VR Olympics.

It was a high stakes game for UK who only had a one medal lead at its fifth place , they needed this win more than anyone else , and Edge was leading the team for this very task.

Straight from the get go in the lobby , sparks flew between Karna and Edge , who were the team captains of their respective teams , as Edge completely mocked Karna. Even going as far as to make unruly barbaric gestures. However Karna was never going to give him the satisfaction of an ugly reaction , as he stood there silently glaring his opponent.

-----------

( Jhonny English POV)

Inside the lobby , everyone was giving team Japan and especially Jhonny English dirty looks . Jhonny was just too damn popular and too damn arrogant. His mesmerizing wins in blacksmithing and Prison escape event had made him in the to watch list.

Every team who was doing their homework about their opponents talked atleast an hour about one Jhonny English , and how to restrain this unpredictable man , and most decided to go after him early , to eliminate him out of the contest. About 20% of the teams had decided to go after Team Japan's strongest link instead of the first white flag at the start of the event.

Jhonny who was in the dark about the conspiracy behind his back , just kept silently sighing. Thinking about the dissapointing level of beauties participating in the event. Like not a single appealing woman in a crowd of hundereds , made Jhonny loose interest.

Only god knows what would happen when about 50 players would try go after Jhonny at the start of the event , from multiple countries at that. The start of the event is sure to be chaotic.

( True Elites HQ , real world )

Its the last event and Rudra joins the team in watching team Japan perform in the capture the flag event.

Technically UK should win this event just like his past life. However with Karna , **G and Medivh playing for team japan ,a lot had changed from the last time around. Rudra wanted to know how much had making the Elites impacted the world stage .... Is it enough to steal them a win without him being personally involved?

Rudra sat with Neatwit on his right and Naomi on his left , the twins having almost similar reactions to everything that was going on in the big screen , while the crowd behind him cheered like Barbarians whenever an Elite was shown on the big screen.

Rudra was new to this atmosphere , as he was usually on the other side of the screen , sitting here alongside the enthusiastic bunch , he realized he needed to do this more often .... It was a lot of fun !

After about 5 minutes Rudra too broke into mad cheers whenever a guild mate was shown , much to the surprise of Naomi , who chuckled seeing the excited guild master. Untill silence descended in the room , when the countdown hit 0 and the event officially started.

--------

( Capture the flag event, virtual world )

Karna lead 6 members of the team including Patch Mori and Medivh to the central white flag ,to contest for the early flag spawn , while Two members were left to defend their base , and sir Jhonny and KingSpy were left between the two parties to provide assistance as needed.

At the centre a massive brawl had erupted , and Karna lead the group right into the heart of the Frey , activating his minds eyes and entering beast battle mode!

Meanwhile many groups made way to the Japanese base , where on their way they encountered their target Jhonny English. Very early into the game 12 different squads , 50 players in total had decided to take this bighsot out early as they teamed up and surrounded him and KingSpy . They were uneasy themselves , but had a tacit understanding of taking out Jhonny first.

Jhonny was voted as the key player to watch for by the forums going into the event , and Japan was voted the most likely to win the contest. Hence coming in as the Favourites they were naturally targetted first.

The camera angle cut to Jhonny who was dumbfounded seeing himself surrounded by soo many members , however the words that came out of his mouth next completely stunned the entire world , as it would become an immortal meme for all times to come.

Jhonny scanning his surroundings only calmly spoke

" 50 of you came .... Yet not a single pretty girl amongst you .....

". As he silently drew his cane sword!
