Solo Leveling: I Am The Only Supreme With the Cheating System

"Erika"

Maria called out again.

"Huh? Did you say something?" Erika asked absent-mindedly.

"Are you ok? You have been staring at that table for a while now, or do you know that guy?"

'Is that supreme? He looks like him, but...'

"Erika..." Maria called again, she placed her right hand on her sister's palm, Which was resting on the table, and gripped it gently.

"It's nothing Maria, come on now, Let's eat" Erika said with a small smile, pushing her thought to the back of her mind.

Seeing her sister trying to dodge the question, Maria smiled, but still nodded.

The two girls continued their food in utter silence, while Erika kept stealing glances at Michael.

'Can people look so... alike? No! I must find out.' She dropped her silver spoon and knife on the table, and slowly stood up.

"What is it Erika?" Maria asked in mild surprised.

"Nothing, Maria. Wait here, I will be back" Erika said, and walked towards Michael's table.

_

"Mm hmm, B-Brother, won't you mmm eat?" Mira asked, with food in her mouth.

"Mira. Table manners, don't talk while eating" Michael said calmly, taking a sip of his tea.

"Huh? Ok, brother." Mira nodded and kept silent. Michael chuckled, he was about to take another sip of tea, when he spotted someone, walking towards them.

'Is that...?!'

"Hello" Erika greeted in a low voice.

"WOW...! So pretty, I love your hair!" Mira exclaimed, seeing Erika's silver hair. "Oh, thank you. I also love your hair" Erika said in mild surprise, not expecting the compliment.

"Fufufufufu... thank you" Mira said with a laugh.

Michael was moving his head from his sister to the one who almost killed him with a poisonous arrow. He sighed and asked. "Yes?"

"Sorry for disturbing, I just want to ask something" Erika said, observing Michael closely.

'Wow, is this her real demeanor? Because the one I know Is very arrogant, cold and didn't regard the lives of others.' Michael thought inwardly, but still nodded at her.

"Go on"

"Are you a player?"

Michele nodded.

"Still a low level player?"

Michael nodded again.

Erika's heart was beating like a drum seeing him nod, something that have never happened before, to talk of someone she didn't even know that well, usually, she is cold to anyone. Apart from her sister, but in presence of this guy, she was as meek as a child, and she hated this feeling. Erika took a deep breath and asked.

"What is your game name?"

Michael was silent, he didn't say anything. Instead, he raised his tea cup, and slowly took a sip. "Why are you asking all these?"

"Huh?" Erika was stunned by his question. 'He is right, why am I asking all these? It is because of Maria's treatment, or because of my curiosity?'

'Who is supreme?'

'Why is he so strong, being only a LV 1 player?'

'How did he tamed a LV 10 monster that easily?'

'Is he really a low level player?'

'Why did he let me go? Because killing me, a player with high level will earn him more life times.'

'And, how did he score the highest ranking in AI?'

Erika has so much questions running through her head, she sighed in resignation. She was frustrated, having questions, but not getting answers no matter how hard you think, is really frustrating.

"I am sorry for disturbing you, I will leave now" with no answer to give to his question, she chose to leave the place.

Michael didn't say anything, while Mira was staring at them with a confused look.

"Thank you" Erika gave a simple bow and walked away.

"Is this your true self?" Michael suddenly asked.

"Pardon?"

Erika stopped, and look at him over her shoulder.

"I said, is this your true self?" Michael repeated his words, turning his head to face her.

Erika turned around and observed him with a frown. "Are you... Supreme?" She asked cautiously.

"The one and only" Michael spread his hands wide.

"Supreme?"

"Did she just said, Supreme?"

"Is he the player?"

"What?"

"He looks so young"

"He is currently topping the leader board, even the invincible Joker was pushed down to second place by him."

"I can't believe he is among us!"

"I should tell me friends"

"Yes! me too!!"

"I have seen Supreme!!"

"I need to take his autograph"

"Can I be your in-game friend, Supreme?!"

The commotion caused by just a name, spread in the whole restaurant like wide fire. Even attracting the attention of those staying upstairs. While most of them rushed down to see the black horse, who rode to the top in one game, and overtook the invincible joker.

"What is going now?" Now, Michael and Mira were dumbfounded, as half of the restaurant customers gathered around them.

Erika stood still in Front of Michael, whether stunned or speechless, Michael couldn't tell. He was overwhelmed by the crowd of people who have gathered around him. Begging to be his friend, both in real life and VRA (virtual reality game).

From the broadcast announced by AI till now, Michael didn't know anything about his rising fame, he didn't know the five biggest guild are already looking for ways to recruit him. Michael didn't have time for all this, he entered the game for only two reasons. One: life times, and the other, to get stronger, so he could protect his sister.

Michael is a simple guy from the start, and he wants to live a simple and peaceful life with his sister. But now?

"Calm down all of you! What is going on?!" Michael yelled, utterly confused by their reaction. 'Is my name gold? As its bearer, shouldn't I have known.'

"Excuse me!!" Erika pushed the people aside, and stood in front of the confused siblings. Seeing Michael's confused look, She brought out her phone and played a video.

It was a video of a middle-aged man, holding a Mic, sitting on a large desk, simply a news channel. The man was smiling so broadly, that Michael wondered if the reporter's jaw would hurt after the show.

A legend has been born in Virtual Reality game (VRG)!, playing his only first game and beating the three top dogs in the leader board, Supreme have proven that we can all do it. That we can survive in the game and come out as legends, as I speak, half of the guilds in the world are moving to recruit him. But the problem is... where and who is this legend?

The man was really... enthusiastic, talking non-stop.

Michael nodded slowly. 'But, can only a game make you so famous in this run down world. It looks like everyone is trying to get a pie, because those famous or high level player in Virtual Reality game are swimming in life times. If you could make good friends with someone like that.

You will also have enough life times that can last you for 50 or even 100 years, as someone who could get famous in the coming future, they will surely try to favor me!! But... Why the fuck did that reporter said it's easy to be a legend, if not for the cheating system, I won't even last a second under that monster!!.' Michael yelled inwardly, he looked at Erika.

"We'll talk later"

Erika nodded vigorously, hearing Michael's word. "Thank you everyone, I will be going now. See you later."

"Wait! Supreme, I have sent you a friend request!!"

"Please accept my friend request."

"You are my idol, Supreme!!"

"Can you play with us? Let's team up"

"Sorry guys, but I play solo" Michael said, picking up his sister. "What about the remaining food?" Mira asked. After living in poverty for all her life. She knew the value of food, and also know how to make any plate count. By simply eating it.

"Leave it. I will cook dinner" Michael said, and quickly but quietly escape the crowd with his sister.

The two siblings were lucky, that the commotion was only inside the restaurant. He quickly called a cab and the two entered. Leaving the restaurant in a hurry.

_

In the car.

"Brother, why are those people yelling your game name?" Mira asked, licking the ice cream she took with her.

"Well... I think I am famous now" Michael muttered.

"Huh?" Both Mira and the driver were stunned.

__

"Erika, why is everyone so excited?" Maria asked. Because of her situation, she couldn't get close and see what was happening. But she heard everything.

Erika sighed and sat down on her seat. "Is that the guy who won the game?"

Erika nodded.

"Hey girl, how long have you known Supreme?" A guy who was standing close to their table asked.

"How is that your business?" Erika asked in such coldness that the guy took a step back. "N-Nothing, I-I am sorry" The guy said, and quickly walked away from the table.

"Erika, you need to be nice to people, he just asked a question... and nothing more" Maria said in a low voice.

Only she knew how her sister is, Erika is someone you should never dare to cross. If you do... you will simply disappear from the world before sunrise. 'But why is she acting weird in front of that guy?' Maria surely noticed her sister's behavior when she was talking to Michael, who was a stranger.

And... Erika was the one who even walked up to him, and initiated a conversation. 'She never speaks with anyone, but me, always alone and distance, but now, she was the one who walked up to someone, something that have never happened before. I am happy for her, trying to socialize with others, but... Is she ok?'

"Why are you staring at me? Did I have something on my face?" Erika asked in a low voice.

Erika surely talked and laughed with her sister, she look approachable and carefree, but that will just be your end, especially those with bad intentions.

Mostly males who lust over her. Half of them have met their doom under her sword, Erika was simply a demon in human flesh. Maria doesn't know about all these. To Maria, her sister is just cold and distance to others, nothing else.

But why not supreme?
