As the conversation changed towards the topic of how Luck and Queen Flamerath would interact in the future, Luck was the first to put his chips on the table. “To start, I am guessing that you would like to recruit me as a member of your guild and to work with you in progressing that certain quest. To this, the queen smirked as she liked the direction Luck was pushing the conversation, but it was short lived as she frowned when she was interrupted by him as she was about to speak. “And! While I can already tell that this is ideal for you, I need to inform you that there are circumstances that make me unable to join your guild.” “Oh? What would these circumstances entail?” Queried the Queen. Heaving a dejected sigh, Luck stated one demand in a blunt tone. “A billion credits.” “Excuse me?” “If you would like to recruit me, you would need to pay me one billion credits, no more and no less.” To this, everyone in the throne room was stunned into silence and were slack jawed by his d

Amidst the heat of the ongoing battle, Luck knew that his stats were currently not enough to handle the wolves on his own so he had worked with Caleb to split up the oncoming enemies. Thanks to the quick actions of the team’s tank, 1 of the 6 wolves were already dealt with while the 5 remaining fixed on Caleb. He would continue to get the attention of as many as he could while Luck intercepted any that attempted to get around the literal human wall. “I’ll handle these guys.” Shouted Luck, his intent meant for Flama.” “Support Caleb with ranged attacks, Quick!” Unhesitantly, she withdrew a weapon from the magic bag at her hip. Strapping it to her arm, she pulled the tension cord back and loaded a metallic bolt. Her eyes narrowing like a hawk, she let loose bolt after bolt which dug into the hides of the wolves. While not enough to kill, it wounded and slowed the monsters down. Added with the poisons on their tips, the wolves began to feel sluggish while others began to fall ove

Upon stepping through the pair of wooden doors, Flama and Caleb were met with the sight of Luck moving items around and somehow magically making things appear and disappear out of nowhere. This made their minds go numb again but they put on their game face as they approached him. “Alright, so if I put the storage over there and this over here, then the other items there…..Oh! What about here? Nah no good.” While mumbling to himself, Luck was getting his work space in order. With a few flicks of his hands, items from his pocket space inventory began appearing across the counters and tables that were scattered around the room. To sum up the look of the place, it seemed like a mess, but going by Luck’s gusto as he methodically worked, the place looked as if it would soon be organized into a more workable space. “Need any help?” Flama asked, as she smiled wryly. She knew that there was little she could offer but nonetheless wanted to be courteous since she was a guest coming into hi

Upon logging out of the game, Luck began to check the results of his earnings from the recent live streams he had been doing on flinch.tv. Frowning, what irked Luck was the marked decrease in overall viewership per stream session. In the past, he was able to get total viewers in the range of the mid double digits but after his deal with the Kingdom of Primeria, it was now showed that he had been only getting total viewership in the lower double digits. This had an effect since the earnings made from a full week's worth of gaming and work only came out to a measly 438 Credits after factoring in tax. While this was a good chunk of money made from just playing games, it was pennies when compared to Luck’s original salary if he had gotten a job at a gaming company. But remembering the long hours and abusive upper management, he shook off that idea and quickly got undressed. After a late night drip in the tube, Luck got changed and returned to his room to review the different courses

Meanwhile, while Luck was working away in his house making potions, Flama and Caleb had taken the chance to go out and enjoy the game to the fullest. It had been a long time since the two of them ever went on an adventure together. They could count the times they did in the last year on one finger. They, of course, had periods of time where they could go off and do their own thing, but it was hard for them to coordinate a period of time when they were both available to hangout. Taking a whiff of the sweet sea breeze, Flama felt the stress of her duties fly off from her shoulders. Doing much the same, Caleb looked at the ocean’s horizons with a fond gaze. “Man! It's been a while since I’ve seen the sea.” Flama said, stretching her arms to help wake her body up. “Same here.” Caleb added. “But, Flama? Doesn’t your family own a beach house somewhere outside of the city?” While nodding, she explained. “My family has been pushing me to take over the family business lately. Because of
