4★ Rui - F/P/S: Gamer's Creed (Part 4) [BLUE ATTRIBUTE]

Part 4 has two episodes. The ending of this episode will be different from Part 4 (Green Attribute)

Host: Both of them are carefully watching each other’s movements. But — whoa, hold on!

Rui: … Here I go.

Host: Here comes RUI moving his move!
At lightning-fast-speed attacks — this is RUI in full swing!

Then comes his next move — what’s this?!

Randa: No way…! I’ve never seen anyone nail this move before...!

Rui: Well, you learn new things. Make sure to remember that.

Host: RUI’s hits just keep coming!
Can Randa avoid his attacks — Oh, his HP is dropping rapidly!

Randa: Shit…!

Rui: …Game over.

Host: K. O —————— ! !
RUI’s ultimate combo has completely worn down Randa!!

Randa: No way… That can’t be! How could this be…!

Rui: Didn’t I tell you I had no intention of losing?

Host: RUI takes down Randa and secures a victory!! Congratulations on winning !!

Randa: ……….

Man… Thinking I could become a pro with my skills just now was stupid of me…

Noah: … Wait, isn’t that Rui-san over there…

Rui: Oh, you’re still here huh.

Randa: RUI-san…

Rui: You have skills, there’s no doubt. But there’s folks here just like yours.

Randa: I know that… Well. I was really serious about winning today, but I ended up losing instead.

I guess unless you’re really good like RUI-san, making a living out of gaming is just impossible [1].

Rui: What you’re missing isn’t just skill. It’s also preparation and determination.

You can’t just make a living out of gaming just because they’re fun, you know?

Randa: But I was prepared…!

Rui: While working part-time jobs?

Well, that's a half-assed way to do it for sure. You can’t beat those that do it 24/7.

Randa: That’s… But, how do I…

Rui: C’mon, you get what I mean right.

Noah: … Maybe instead of saying that, how about giving him some advice…

Rui: What a pain…

If you’re just bragging saying you’re going to become a pro gamer and be like that, it’s no wonder you ended up losing to me.

Randa: …Yeah, I get it. I understand what you mean. Thanks for the advice.

Rui: ….Hmph. Betting your life or dreams on competing with others was naive to begin with.

Noah: ……

(Aside from how Rui-san said it, he did have a point. But, it must have been hard for him.)

(...Hm? Is that…)

Randa-kun!

Randa: Oh, you. You were with RUI-san a while ago...

Noah: … I know what Rui-san said was harsh but I don’t think he was doubting you.

Randa: …Yeah, you’re right.

After hearing him say that, I’ve made up my mind. RUI-san may look scary but… he’s actually pretty cool.

…. He must have seen how naive I was and wanted to give me a push.

Whether it’s in gaming or in something else, I’m not sure yet. But, I want to have the same confidence as he has.

If I manage to find it, I’ll swing by here and give an update… Can you pass that message to RUI for me?

Noah: Understood.

Randa: Thank you… Well, see ya.

Rui: …Did someone came crying?

Noah: Rui-san! Did you happen to catch what he said?

Randa-kun said he’ll come back and update us.

Rui: …No, I assumed he’d always be here anyway.

Noah: I don’t think you’re completely wrong either…

Rui:......

He’s going to find his own path huh.
Wait, is he considering on quitting?

Too bad.

Noah: I don’t know.
After thinking about it, he might just go with the game after all.

Rui: …Yeah, definitely.

Noah: Either way, when you two meet again, you can have another battle right?

Rui: That’s right.
… If we get to compete against each other again, I’ll teach him a few tips.

Translation Notes:

[1] Randa used 天才 (tensai) which can translate as a genius but can also mean someone who has incredible skills.
Throughout the episodes Randa refers to Rui as his username (RUI)
