Love is War

Chapter 39

I went to bed after the party as I feel so exhausted, from the competition and I need to rest. I entered the room and opened the lights, and as soon I clicked the switch on the wall the light spreads immediately. I pull off my shirt, to release some heat in my body, and threw it in a nearby basket for the used laundry. I removed my belt and grabbed the towel.

I went straight to the bathroom as it can help me feel refreshed before resting. I feel so sticky right now because of the long rides that I had taken and the sweat had dried up since the party was held immediately, plus what dad told me earlier. How can I ignore the happy people around me?

After entering the shower room, I am completely naked and I am in front of the shower now. There is a temperature regulator in front of me and I put it in cold state, that will help me feel more refreshed. Scientifically, before sleeping cold shower is the best, as it will help you feel sleepier. The cold water will help the body release heat and the idle temperature of the body will lower down which will make me sleepy. Well. Just feeling cold makes me sleepy, especially on rainy days.

I prepared myself because sudden drop of temperature will give a shock to my body and will send shivers all over my body. I prepared myself and the drop of cold water touched my skin and as expected, shiver crawled all over my body and I am shaking right now.

My teeth are clattering but my body acclimated soon enough and I just let the cold water touch my body. It awakened me for now. After that I grabbed the soap and I started applying it all over my body, cleaning my abs, my muscular arms, and the rest.

After that I entered the shower again and I brushed my teeth and gurgle a mint mouthwash that will help me feel more comfortable. Whenever I feel so clean, I feel so relaxed, I can sleep soundly now. After that I leave the bathroom while the towel is wrapped around my lower body. I cleaned my laundry clothes putting it where it should be.

I grabbed my pajamas and put it on and hanged the towel inside the bathroom again. I went straight to my computer and I look at the paper bag on my bed, dad didn’t take it from me. The GRX 9090, he said that I should use it while the equipment is still not here and not needed to be operated. He also said to me that they will find a way to find alternate power source for the mech or find another GRX 9090, that they can put their hands on.

Either way, I don’t mind whether he takes this card or not. He gave me the time to experience those latest games that the card can smoothly run and I am okay with it. I am very okay with it. I grabbed the paper bag on the bed and I went straight to my computer. I pull out this magnificent box out of the bag.

This is so worth displaying in my room. It’s like a golden trophy that I had won in the Olympics. The fact that this card is only limited and it has only a few successful built products is enough reason to be proud of. Setting aside that I still bought this card, I won the battle.

Actually, I didn’t expect that the store will give us a hard time. Not that hard for me but that girl gave me challenge for the very least, I thought she will escape on that church and we will have another round, I mean I don’t mind it since I am pretty confident on what game they will throw at me. I will win it no matter what, but I am a guy that wants to Make sure of everything. She losing in that round is less hassle for me and I get to party with my dad for a long time.

That’s what made me a champ.

I put the box above my computer table, and I plug out the cables connected to my computer, and I pull out the system unit so I can plug the graphics card to the PCIE, my chassi or the system’s casing is big enough to handle this card. Also, it’s liquid cooled.

That’s why I need to be more careful handling this unit, because it will destroy my whole system if the liquid leaks out. It’s heavy but I can manage, well what made it heavy is that I am nervous that I might destroy the unit. If the mind tells it then it will be heavy then it will be heavy.

The magic of mind. I successfully placed the unit above the table, and I opened the front panel. The panel is clear so I can see the insides but opening my unit... it’s like it’s... I am in the wonderland. It’s just I love my computer as much as my rifle, Rose.

I ripped out the thin plastic covering the box that will allow me to open the box and I crumpled it then put it aside. After that I opened the box which revealed yet another box but in all black showing the brand of this card, which is the elite of the elite among the companies making the card.

EHDMI

That means that this card is on the top of the food chain.

“I will enjoy spending my time with you baby,” I whispered to the card as if it is my girl. If anyone is seeing me right now, they will be weirded out on how enthusiastic I am towards this card. I removed my other graphics card which is VRX 8090, the next card below the GRX 9090. I carefully put it above the table so I can avoid denting it.

I opened the box and saw the card inside the anti-static plastic cover, I pull out the card from the box and I saw the seal still intact which is good and that means the product is not used in any way. It’s brand new and the shine of its case is magnificent.

It’s weight, it’s really heavy and the product itself assured me that it is made from quality materials, sturdy and strong and with enough care it will serve me for decades, if dad decided not to take this card.

I carefully plug the card into the PCI Express of my motherboard and I pushed it hard enough to hear the clicking sound that told me that the card is well secured already. I let go of it, and screw some screws into the chassi that will give it more support.

I observed my unit for a while and will not get tired admiring this. It’s so beautiful. Technology is really an art.

I am an enthusiast when it comes to technology and guns but dad only knew that I am just a gun enthusiast since my aim alone is enough to tell them that.

I closed the front panel and I can till see the insides of my rig. I put it again where I took it earlier, then I plug again the cables that connects my peripherals and monitors. Then I finally plug my power cable that will turn on the whole unit.

When everything is ready, I pressed the power button and everything lit up also the tubes where the water loop is happening that helps me to prevent overheating is also well lit, and that looks beautiful.

Having RGB lights around my setup sure sets the mood of my gaming experience. If I play a certain game that has a certain color scheme then I will activate those colors and that will make me more immersed on the game that I play.

It’s very helpful for a person like me that likes such lightings, but there are also people that don’t like these lights and they want it to be dark and for me that is too boring, but hey we have our own preferences and I will just judge them inside my mind. Spouting such words will just prove that I am yet just another thrash person in the society.

It’s prevalent in my current situation, and I avoid people like that, and that is why I hate the masses and only have 2 friends. They will just like you if you show them incredible feat and will dislike you or even laugh at you if you show them your flaws.

I want to avoid that as much as possible.

I got excited when I saw my computer boot up and it’s looking pretty great, the boot up only lasted for 2 seconds and tadaa everything is ready. Some apps just launched in the background and I closed them and I stretched my arms, because my fatigue just wore off just imagining myself playing that new shooting game. Not on vr because my vr setup is too complicated and will waste more of my time.

I opened Gears, a game store where I can buy it for thousands of monies, well, if it’s great then it’s worth the spend and to support the developers that will make the game better, it’s an AAA titled game meaning that it is produced by a well-known company.

Speaking of AAA games, the game that PCGG produced is also a great game but the game has so much improving to do and I left a note based on my experience. I hope that will help them.

I am looking forward for its official release and just by looking at all the spectators watching us play the game. That game will be a hit. I can tell if they listen to me.

My phone rang and I opened it and Kuro texted me that we will be training tomorrow and I am reminded that I have to go to the underground gym as part of my training. I guess I don’t have much time spending my time with this new tech.

I checked the time and saw that it is still early. I did not send a reply and bought the game.

Time to play.
