Mia was hopeless. She was starting to believe that life after college was so cruel for someone like her. Puro rejected ang job applications at wala na halos makain until she found belongingness with strangers in an online world Diamond Hub. Sa isang iglap, nakakalimutan niya na ang problema niya. Sa isang iglap, pinag-aagawan na pala siya.

By the way, a big shout out to my top sponsor, Tiny Avenger!”The gifts poured in.[Die With A Smile gifted you a Sports Car x1.][Tiny Avenger gifted you a Wand x10.][Ace of Spades gifted you a Teddy Bear x5.][Trojan Virus Top Hater gifted you a Jet Train x1.][Tiny Avenger gifted you a Love Letter x100.][Tiny Avenger gifted you a Carousel x1.][Excello gifted you a Mark of Tiger x3.]Expensive gifts rained down in the room. Tiny Avenger was working hard to make sure she ranks higher than the opponent. [Tiny Avenger: Don’t worry, Clarinet, I won’t let you lose face.][Tiny Avenger: Mukhang baguhan lang naman ang kalaban mo, baby. Ang onti lang ng nanonood sa kanya. Wala siyang ibabatbat sa atin. I think I can handle this even wit
Chapter 22: Points’ Thief[Trojan Virus Top Hater: You think that’s funny, host? How dare you fool me?]He was fuming, but Tom was enjoying himself. Panay ang pagpapadala nito ng mga nakakainis na GIF para lang lalong mapikon ang lalaki.[Tiny Avenger: Ano ka ngayon?][Tiny Avenger sends a GIF.]Trojan Virus Top Hater cursed under his breath. Before he could retaliate, Tom muted him again for five minutes. Their laughter filled the live chat as they continued bullying one of the audience members.[Ang sama ng ugali, Tiny Avenger.][Nakakainis ‘yong gano’n.][Tiny Avenger: Parang hindi naman siya naiinis. If he doesn’t like me muting him, he has the freedom to leave the room.]Many were talking about Tiny Avenger’s abuse of power as an administrator, but Dragon Clarinet came to his defense. “Sabi mo lang naman ay alisin sa pagiging admin. You didn’t specify that I couldn’t put him back to his role again.”Well, that makes sense. Mia was just following his words. She didn’t violate anyt
Chapter 21.3: Tom, Not an Admin?They did not immediately end the connection. Angel took the opportunity to ask Mia about the recent issue. “What did you do to Stephanie?”Hindi man niya mismo nasaksihan, kalat na kalat naman ang balita tungkol sa nangyari. Even though this was their first time officially meeting, Angel was already well aware of who Dragon Clarinet was. She might be a newcomer with low capital, but she was already rubbing elbows with the famous hosts.There was no reason for Mia to hide the story. Kwinento niya lahat — mula umpisa hanggang sa dulo kung saan nawala na ang connect nila ni Steph. She didn’t hold back on the details.Nakisali na rin si Sky Cruiser sa usapan. He was one of the few in the Diamond Hub who knew exactly what kind of person Raiden was. They hadn’t interacted directly, pero may mga miyembro siya na nagkaroon ng encounter sa lalaki.“Rai Charlie as in Raiden?” He frowned. The lines on his forehead deepened before concern settled on his face. “Tha
Chapter 21.2: Dragon Clarinet is a BunnyMia shut her eyes tightly, fingers nervously fiddling below the camera, silently wishing the ground would swallow her whole. Her cheeks flushed pink, slowly fading as the embarrassment settled deeper into her chest. She felt a little dizzy just thinking about what happened — the cringy scene she accidentally created — and the fact that so many people were watching her.[Hindi ganito ang alam ni Clarinet. Hahahahaha!][Tiny Avenger: She’s so lost. I thought she knew it!][Confident pa man din siya. Huwag niyo na asarin. Baka biglang mag-close ng panel.]Mia bit her lip, barely able to read the rest. She knew they were having fun at her expense, but it didn’t make the shame any less painful.“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Angel tried to comfort her, but she couldn’t contain her laughter to herself. She managed to tone it down to a giggle later on. “You are cute, Dragon Clarinet, so that’s okay.”It didn’t put her at ease at all. Angel took a breath, t
Chapter 21: Dragon Clarinet is a Bunny[Sky Cruiser: Miss Clarinet, I need your help!]Mia paused mid-laugh, still smiling at her screen. But her expression shifted as she read the message. She typed back to clarify.[Sky Cruiser: I’m having a multiplayer PK. Please join with me! Ang dami ng nauubos sa akin.]Her brows furrowed. She couldn’t help but wonder — why her, of all people? Sky Cruiser was a big name on the platform. She wasn’t. Bakit siya ang naisipan nito?[Sky Cruiser: I know you could win with the help of your supporters, so please also help me]Grabe. He really answered the question she hadn’t even asked yet. Mia leaned back in her chair. He wasn’t wrong — her fans were super supportive — but still...But then again, Sky Cruiser was one of the good guys. He was chill and fun, and definitely not like some of the arrogant hosts she’d met. Besides, she hadn’t done any PKs today. Bored siya, and she didn’t want her viewers to feel the same.“Can you invite me?” she asked c
Chapter 20: Where the Wildflowers Bloom[The longer Dragon Clarinet live, the more I admire her. She’s very smart.][For real. Ilang milyon nawala sa kanya, pero parang hindi man lang siya apektado.][It’s either hindi siya apektado o ayaw niya man lang ipakita sa atin.]Tila nakonsensya naman si Mia sa mga papuri sa kanya. Deep inside her, of course, there was a bit of regret, but she doesn’t need to explicitly tell that to the audience.[Die With A Smile: Enough with your regrets sa rewards. Tinalo niyo pa si Ganda kung maka-react. Move on, people.] She nodded her head. [Die With A Smile: Ganda, ‘di ba sabi mo, kakanta ka? You can sing now. Gusto na namin marinig ang boses mo.]She regretted agreeing now to her. Bumalik na naman tuloy sa kanya ang topic. Now, her cheeks was as red as an apple. She suddenly felt like she was running a fever. Her lips trembled to a fake smile. “May sinabi ba akong gano’n? Parang wala naman.”Her fans cheered her to do it. Lalo lamang siya nahiya.[Sin
Chapter 19.3: Taylor Reed vs Rai Charlie[Tiny Avenger: You, guys, shut up. I’ll do the storytelling. I know what happened, so you better listen to me.]The moment his message flashed across the chatbox, the room buzzed with anticipation. It wasn’t just the confidence behind his words — it was how close he seemed to be with Taylor. That connection made him a credible source, and nobody wanted to miss the details, not even Mia.[Pakibilisan po ng kwento. Naiinip na ako.]Mia had no intention to gossip, but with this many people hooked on the story, it was hard not to get curious. She tried not to be obvious as she moved forward to her cellphone to maximize the volume and focused her hearing to what Tiny Avenger is about to say.[Tiny Avenger: It wasn’t Taylor and Rai who fell in love with the same female host; it was only Raiden. The girl was not very famous, yet she was pretty which caught the interest of Raiden, so he attempted to also get her attention. Araw-araw niyang tinatadtad
Chapter 19.2: Taylor Reed vs Rai CharlieThe connection to the other line cut off abruptly, leaving only Dragon Clarinet’s face on the screen. The silence that followed was deafening. Every single person watching—whether her fans, her audience, or supporters of Stephanie and Rai—had witnessed the same shocking moment.She had deliberately ended the call.Accept the invitation or politely decline—those were the expected options. But to reject it so bluntly, without the slightest courtesy? No one had seen that coming. The sheer audacity left them speechless.[Tiny Avenger: Wow, baby, I did not expect that.][Die With A Smile: Who was that? Ikaw ba talaga ‘yon?]She had to confirm it. Hindi gano’n ang host na nakilala nila.[Ang astig mo sa part ma ‘yon, Clarinet.][Tiny Avenger: I wish you could see how I gasped so hard.][Lahat talaga nabigla e.][Matibay ang honey bee ko.]While they were still amazed from what she did, Taylor, who has just recovered, although also loved her decision
Chapter 19: Taylor Reed vs Rai Charlie“Taylor, I am aware you can hear me perfectly, so listen to this.” She spoke every word with conviction, also in an irritating tone that didn’t help the atmosphere. “Our leader wants to face you in a duel. Kapag natalo mo siya, he will put as a profile picture a trash bag with a label ‘I am a trash.’ He will not open his account ever again and will leave the Diamond Hub for good.“Kahit pa bumalik na siya, he will forever be known as the loser, the trash, the quitter of the Diamond Hub. Ain’t that a good deal, don’t you agree?”Mia pursed her lips, her eyebrows slightly raised, before she shrugged and nodded to her offer. “Good deal, but does he want to accept it? Go ask him.”She reclined on the sofa, her face distancing from the screen, but she can still read the comments of the audience.[Is Rai going to do that for real? That’s too much.][Mukhang hindi simpleng duel lang ang mangyayari.][I agree. Their leader is Raiden, right?][Oo, Rai Cha
Chapter 1 Like the air conditioner's blast wasn’t enough to make her shiver, the HR’s gaze definitely had the power to freeze her in place. The longer the recruiter stared, the worse Mia’s anxiety got. She tried to keep her cool, but her mind was already racing with all the possible things this woman might say. She turned to her assistant, her thick ponytail swaying as she moved. She flashed the paper in her hand and laughed before shifting her gaze back to Mia. Then, with a smirk, she spoke, her tone dripping with condescension. “I have to admit, I’m impressed. Ang kapal ng mukha mo mag-apply kahit wala ka namang credentials,” she scoffed. “Pero kung ako sa’yo, hanap ka na lang ng mayamang AFAM na bubuhay sa’yo. Sayang naman yang ganda mo kung dito mo lang gagamitin.” With zero hesitation, she crumpled Mia’s resume and tossed it straight into the trash. The document Mia had worked on for hours—just like that, gone. She lowered her gaze, ashamed, fidgeting with her fingers as w...
