Connecting With Infinity

Party

Arin followed Sera to the office, on his way he asked to Sera why did she called him.

Sera then replied " Sir, our cleaning staff found some blood on the stairs. I think someone or something had been break in here yesterday. "

Arin put his hand on head and said " Sera, that was me. I got a wound on my leg. "

Sera - a wound? Is it serious...? Did you stitch it?

Arin - Yes, i did stitch it. ( He then shows her the wound, when Sera saw the wound she covered her mouth with her hand. The wound was pretty deep she asked him how did he wounded? )

Arin said to her that an iron bar pierced through his leg, while he was doing some work in his old place.

After confirming that he's okay Sera returned to her office, then Arin decided to go out and buy a new dress.

Before doing that he searched about the masquerade party, and found how to dress to that.

Arin head out and looked for a shop that sells suites, after long time of searching he found a place. But the place was kind of underwhelming.

He walked inside and take look at the dress, an Oldman came out and asked him what he wanted.

Arin " sir, i was looking for a suite for party. "

Oldman - welcome, what is your budget?

Arin - i don't care about that sir, show me the most expensive one you have.

At that time there was a sparkle in the oldman's eyes, then he bring out white suite and said. " Sir, this is the most expensive one i have right now "

Arin - How much is the price of this suite?

Oldman - 25000 zerx sir. ( The Oldman was keeping his head down while he said that. Arin noticed that and said that he will buy it. )

When he said that the Oldman grabbed his hands and then started to cry.

" It's...it's been so long since I last sold anything thank you sir for buying this suite from me "

Arin didn't say anything, he just looked at the Oldman. The oldman's bones have been showing. And the diluted pupils and growling sound from stomach indicates that the Oldman clearly didn't eat enough for a couple of days.

Arin asked for the zerxpay and paid the money at that time the Oldman packed his dress.

Arin turn back and grabbed his dress then walked out, the Oldman suddenly called Arin and said. " Sir this is more than price of you dress "

Arin looked back and said while smiling " You can keep the rest mister "

The Oldman kneel down and said. " Even still it's a lot sir, i will never forget your kindness "

Arin paid him 50000 zerx double the amount, after that he head towards a mask shop to purchase a mask for the masquerade party.

The mask cought on his eyes was a blue mask with red engraving.

After buying that he left the shop and decided to head back to the hotel. But then suddenly he saw something floating in the air.

" What is that thing " he asked himself and looked up, what he saw was a humanoid form with wings and the head of a bee.

Arin rubbed his eyes and looked once more, yes what he was seeing is true. On that moment the world of anomalies was unfolding infront of him.

There are ghosts and monsters walking alongside humans some of them have been drooling over them.

Arin closed his eyes and walked fast, on his way he was thinking about how did they suddenly appeared infront of him.

Is it because of the rat human, that he fought yesterday, there were so many questions in his mind. But for now his number one priority was to ignore them and get in quickly onto his hotel room.

He opened his hotel room and hide under the blanket, Arin was shaking from fear.

But he can't keep hiding under the bed for long. He decided that only way is to escaping from these blood thirsty thing is to ignorance.

If he keep ignoring them just like he did before, he saw these monsters then he will have a chance to live.

After that he changed his dress into the new suite that he bought, and looked himself in the mirror to see if that dress suite him.

Then Arin changed his dress to normal, when he was wearing his tshirt he heard a knocking on the door.

That was a cleaning staff came for to clean the room, arin said her to come back later and took a nice nap.

The next day evening 6: 10 pm,

Arin changed his dress in to the new one and picked up the mask he bought. Then he headed towards the party.

On his way he met sera. she asked him where he is going.

Arin replied that he is going to a masquerade party. After that he called the taxi. The driver who the same person he called to take him to his hometown.

The taxi came after 20 minutes, Arin get in and told him to go to the hotel serten.

The taxi driver started his vehicle and it move to where the hotel is.

It took almost 40 minutes to reach at hotel serten, before exiting he said to taxi driver. " I will pay you, when I'm returning to where you picked me from " the taxi driver agreed.

Then Arin put on his mask and exit from the taxi, then he slowly walked towards the hotel.

But suddenly two bouncers stopped him, Arin asked them to move.

Bouncers - we can't let you in commoners.

Arin - commoner ?

Bouncers - there is lot of commoners try to imitate and trying to get in. Look over there.

The bouncers pointed their finger towards the gate, when Arin looked over there what he saw was a lot of people wearing tuxedo.

The bouncers then said to show them his invitation.

Arin - invitation?

Bouncer - yes, invitation card to join this party.

Arin - i don't have invitation , but i got a mail from the developers to ask me to attend this party.

The bouncers laughed at him and pushed away.

At that time one of the party organiser came out while hearing these noise. The organiser asked the bouncers what is happening on here.

Bouncers - sir, this guy is lying and trying to get inside.

Organiser - what? Kick him out quickly if necessary use force.

While hearing that Arin came forward and said. " I'm not trying get in without reason, i got a mail from the developers of dessert era "

Organiser - mail? What mail.

Arin read out the mail, at that time the organiser understood something but asked Arin about his game Id.

Arin then told him his Id by looking it at the game.

Organiser - I...I am extremely sorry. I didn't recognise you.

Suddenly the tone of the organisers speech changed, the bouncers asked the organisers about it.

Organiser - This one is our guest, who we personally invited.

The bouncers said something, but the organiser scared him and told them to not to talk about it.

At that point of time Arin knew about the mentality of those who have money.

They are living in a whole different world.

When he entered the party, he realised that others where staring at them.

At the start of the event, there was a simple speech from the developers.

Then they said they are going to give an award, at that time Arin was drinking some juice.

The others who participated in the party shows their disgust to him, at that time Arin asked the organiser why are they treating him like a fly.

And the organiser said that's because of his dress,

Arin - what is wrong with it?

Organiser - sir the other's are wearing minimum of 100K worth of dress nd here you're wearing something that is barely worth 25K. The organiser also shows his disinterest towards Arin.

Arin didn't say anything and kept his silence.

The developers - Now we're going to hand over an award for using the most amount of money.

The guests starts to whisper * ooh is it that person called serion? Is he Here right now? *

The developers - For spending more 33 million zerx we welcome mister serion.

Arin looked dumbfounded and then he remembered that his in-game name is serion. Then he head towards the stage.

The guests who are looking at him with disgust up until now surprised by hearing that he is the person called serion. The one crazy person who spend almost 33 million zerx on a game.

The developers asked Arin to speak a few words.

Arin picked up the mic and started to speak.

Arin - Thank you for giving me this award, i want to ask you something. Are you guys judging a person by their appearance. I saw all of you have been ignoring me because of my dress, this dress is something i like to wear.

If you have a problem with that, then say it to my face.

One of the guys on back shouted " you just spend some money on the game, maybe that is the only money you had you are just a begger now right? Is that why you wearing that Cheap clothes.

Arin began to laugh his laughter echoes throughout the party hall.

He asked to them. " Then why don't we make a bet, we will bet our money if any of us can't pay the amount then he will become the other person's slave. Are you ready for this bet ? "

The person who commented that Arin is a begger starts to wavering around. Arin once again asked him but the other person didn't reply. Then Arin said.

" I see you are scared of a begger right? It's a shame that one of the great businessman have less money than a begger, what a shame. "

After hearing that the other person who called Arin begger came forward and said. That he is okay with the bet.

At that time Arin smirked.
