Clever Game (COMPLETED)

[BLOODFIST SERIES 7]

Fumiko Yamamoto has always dreamed of becoming a professional gamer, a passion that consumes her every waking moment. Living in a vibrant neighborhood dotted with computer shops and arcades, she spends countless hours honing her skills and immersing herself in the latest gaming trends. Her dedication pays off when one day, her close friends pay her a visit with an exciting proposition: they invite her to join their team for the Fuse Flight competition. However, her expectations shatter upon encountering a notorious figure on campus: Thunder Clyborne Dirkshied, better known to his peers simply as Thud.
Thud earns his infamous reputation as the "founder of the friend zone," a title he wears like a badge of honor due to his frequent rejections and unrequited crushes. His history of being consistently "basted" by girls has led him to develop a cynical view of relationships. However, when he first lays eyes on Fumiko, a flicker of hope ignites within him. Perhaps she is the one who can break his streak of misfortune-a spark of attraction radiates between them, drawing the attention of his friends within the formidable HuPoFEL and the notorious Bloodfist mafia, who see Thud's interest in Fumiko as a potential game-changer.
