“You what?” Mr. Owen’s voice roared inside his office when he heard Elisha’s proposal in adjusting the wedding in a month.“I already told Matthias. And isn’t a week of preparation too rushed? What will you do if Matthias will became suspicious of your actions?” Elisha reasoned out to her father, eyes determined to make her request approved. “Are you the one making the plans here? Do you think you’re better than me?” Mr. Owen rebutted. “You…”A sigh.When he can’t express the words of refusal to Elisha, Mr. Owen just threw the ashtray on top of his table to Elisha’s head, making a mess of cigarette butts on her hair.“Just make sure that you don’t thwart my plans any further or else…things will be bad for you and your mother.”When Elisha left Mr. Owen’s office, she immediately called her mother to ask about her well-being.“Ma, how are you feeling today?” she asked.“I’m fine now. Anyway, what did that person tell you today? Haven’t I already warned you before not to talk with him?”

“Master Matthias,” Zack greeted Matthias. Matthias' eyes almost bulged out of their sockets when he recognized the man in front of him. Zack Cheng! “What are you doing here? Are you following me?” Matthias answered as he looked back at the place where he came from. So, they knew that he went to the police. “You never fail our expectations, Master Matthias,” Zack commented, taking his favorite lighter out of his suit’s pocket to light the cigarette that he's been biting since earlier. “So, you already anticipated this situation?” “Yes, Master Matthias,” Zack replied. “Isn't it obvious that an honest and powerless man like you would come to the authorities rather than solving things on your own?” Matthias gritted his teeth. That's the truth he can't deny. Of course he has the money but there's no way Mr. Owen will not track down his expenditures. “You’re hopeless and just an ordinary citizen before you received Mr. Owen’s grace so it’s easy to figure out what you will do n

A month after, the wedding is set as initially planned with few modifications as requested by both Elisha and Matthias.“I really can’t believe that Matthias is really getting married.”“You said ‘really’ twice, Wilson,” Dylan commented to his friend. “And just believe what’s happening because it is what’s going on right now,” he said and waved at the camera man who walked beside them to film the grand wedding.“How can I not believe it?! But man, he’s marrying Elisha, that angel!” Then Wilson teared up again and nudged Matthias that was standing beside him. “You keep looking at your watch. Are you that impatient to see your wife?” he said with a snark. “And why did you not tell us that you’re dating before. And that you slept together huhu…”Right.That’s what everyone's thinking right now… the fact that Elisha and Matthias slept together and Elisha’s family caught Matthias red handed.In short, they don’t acknowledge that the two are marrying each other on their own volition. And

“Let me go! Let me–”Matthias woke up the next day in an unfamiliar place. In contrast to the white ceiling of his place that Mr. Owen arranged, this one looks like it’s been dipped into a golden honey, decorated with black linings and deep dark ambiance.“Did you have a good sleep?” Matthias instantly searched for the owner of the voice and saw a silver haired woman sitting on a couch not too far away from the bed. “I already warned you not to go through the wedding but you still did. Are you a fool?” the woman asked him when they locked eyes to each other, flipping the side of her hair to show her face more clearly.“You’re the woman who kidnapped me,” Matthias stated.“Obviously, I am.”Ignoring the fact that the woman is the same person who warned him and kidnapped him twice, Matthias stood up from the bed, took the robe folded neatly beside him and wrapped his naked body with it. “Where are my clothes? Where’s Elisha? Did you – urghh…”Matthias almost puked.What happened?Be

“Did you hold on to that question for too long?!”Matthias held his laughter at Mirella’s fit.“Laugh all you want, you ignorant asshole,” Mirella cursed at him. “I may look like this but I am way older than you.”“I find that hard to understand,” he bantered, looking up and down at Mirella several times. Annoyed, Mirella pushed the vase beside her as if throwing a tantrum, scattering the fake flowers on the floor and shards of the broken vase.“And you’re acting like a kid right now,” Matthias said, irritating Mirella more.“I apologize for bursting your bubble but this isn’t how I usually act when I am acting as a child. If you’re curious how I am when I’m throwing tantrums, why don’t you follow me for a while? There’s a place that I want to show you.” Matthias’ eyes brightened when he heard that he could finally get out of that room. Although it won’t mean that he can escape from Mirella’s confinement now, it is still better than becoming a stagnant water inside that room.As if

Two years after Matthias’ disappearance, Arnauld finds himself drowning on a series of reports by his private investigators again.Like before, there is still no trace of Matthias nor that freak of a loli-granny Mirella who took over control of Matthias' education which is done her way.“Dad, one of our warehouses burned again.”Arnauld glanced at his son, Aren. “How long are you going to waste resources just to find someone who is not even your blood relative?” Aren questioned his father, his hands trembling from the irateness he’s feeling toward his negligent father.“Remember this Aren, whatever we have right now doesn’t belong to us but to the great master. What I am wasting is the great master’s resources and not ours and that is to find Matthias Claude, the next master.”“Just leave him be! Can’t you just let–”“The economy will crumble, Aren!”Arnauld, frustrated, laid his head on the pile of papers in front of him. He knows exactly what will happen when the great master’s ric

“Matthias!” Arnauld happily cheered when he arrived at the warehouse and saw Matthias, sitting in a foldable chair, staring at him with a blank expression–like a king overlooking his vassal.Aren who saw this clicked his tongue. Why does his father look like a dog in front of this Matthias person, barking and wagging his tail cheerfully as if his owner came back after a long time.“You know I became curious when my men suddenly called me which is unusual. So, I checked if it’s you but it turns out that it’s your little hatchling here.”Arnauld looked at his son quizzically. What did he do?He wanted to ask.But then, it’s a good thing that he did that since the result brought him face-to-face with Matthias.“Forgive my son, Sir…”Matthias frowned at Arnauld’s sudden change of tone.He’s just a bit over 40 years old with a son that’s barely adult but as their rank dictates, he’s bowing towards Matthias. But even with that, Matthias finds it repulsive when someone older is acting like

"Elisha?"Matthias laughed dryly at the mention of Elisha's name. "What made you think that I am still interested in things regarding Elisha?"Slowly, the confidence within Aren faded. It looks like Matthias really doesn't give a damn about Elisha judging from the way he just brushed off the topic nonchalantly.But Aren tried pushing Matthias again."Isn't she the woman who died—""Stop your bullshitting," Matthias interrupted Aren. "If you don't have anything more to say, you can come down and go back to your father now."Despite that, Aren's resolve to come with Matthias did not break."Then, I have no choice but to show my competence," Aren declared. "You see, I am good at almost everything I do. Surely you will find me helpful in your next plans," he insisted to Matthias, making the latter feel burdened by his sincerity."Fine. Let me think about it," Matthias conceded. When Aren went out of his car after a few more requests to leave him alone for now, Matthias turned his phone

"Get that and that and that fucker out of my face, now. Argh!"Everyone trembled as Camilla shouts to her assistant to take out the professional gamers that they hired to mine invaluable things within IMPERIAL SAGA."I'm so tired of dealing with morons. Why do you keep hiring dumb people like those?" she whined to her butler and lover, James Morrow. "Do a better job or else...hah, don't mind."James walked out of the room escorting the fired gamers, who's been gaming for only one day but brought out unsatisfactory results to Camilla."Can I ask something," one of the gamers asked James. His eyes were already moistened from the harsh words beating from Camilla earlier but it wasn't that noticeable behind his thick eyeglasses."We know what we are doing, mining and collecting rare treasures but why is she offended when we said that we successfully formed an alliance with that Duke? As someone with a merchant job, being in connection with the Duke will surely make the gameplay easier."
Chapter 56
Nelson's uploaded video took up the charts in trending topics. He was even interviewed for an evening magazine show just to talk about his experience in meeting the rumored Duke, who everyone thinks is the top player within the game because currently, he's also the one dealing with the empire's affairs more than the emperor. "Isn't this a problem?" Clementine said to Matthias when Matthias went out of his capsule that day. "That Camilla will see you.""See me?" Matthias thought for a while before stepping out of the capsule. "What is it for her then? I don't remember offending her except for that one time when I—""She's out for your throat and money," Clementine informed Matthias. "And because of that, here's the report that I need you to read."Matthias read the report with a serious face, tapping on the floor with his foot. And after two minutes, he sat down on the chair not too far away from him. "These...is she seriously trying to start a war? Isn't the sales and manufacturing

Bam!Fireworks shot at the sky at the launch of the most advanced virtual reality game, IMPERIAL SAGA. People, gamers enthusiasts and people who follow the latest trends in technology participated at the countdown when the game was announced online.“Damn, cool! I’m glad I swapped my motorbike for this capsule,” the Nettuber Nelson commented when he showed his followers the capsule he acquired that is only for playing the now popular, IMPERIAL SAGA.“And did you know…hushh…this is a secret I just got from fellow gamers. So, did you know, there’s a rumor that IMPERIAL SAGA will give its players money just for gaming? Brothers and sisters, our in-game money can be withdrawn in the real world!”[foccin killa…][just what i always wanted it to be][Imagine having a job inside the game and using your money in real life where you’re jobless. That’s nuts. It’s like having two lives.][hahaha, I’m taking assassination jobs now. Anyone who wanna hire me?][murder XD][lololololol]Nelson looke

“Same as…me?” “Yeah… you. How do you describe yourself?” Matthias told Larsen as he studied the capsule where he’s been laying down for a long time…which felt exactly 3 years for him.Complicated, maybe? Larsen thought.Ah! So that’s how it is.“Aren’t you going to ask me something important?” Larsen smirked at Matthias.“Not interested. Anything that you’ll say won’t be taken seriously by me…Dear Emperor.”Larsen gave a deep sigh at Matthias’ stubbornness. Well, that’s to be expected from him.“If I were you, I'd start taking over land now. It could be something that’s not Penoma but that’s the place I recommend. That’s because in 3 weeks time, I will officially launch this app out in public. Meaning, you’ll be taken over by those who really know how to beat a game. You should hurry.”Then Larsen left the room, leaving Matthias who is still engrossed at the structure of the giant device in front of him.Two weeks passed and the rumor about a new virtual reality game that extends to

Chapter 53A party…again.What does it mean?Larsen, who saw Matthias’ apparent confusion, laughed. “You should start controlling your emotions, young one. Like right now, I can see that you’re too ignorant by what I mean and just now, you got offended when I called you ‘young’.”“But you’re not really that old,” Matthias commented to Larsen. In his estimate, Larsen is just about the same age as him.“If you’re saying that I am not old in real life then I am not. But in this game, my age is already in 3 digits.”Well, it does not surprise him.Larsen being an emperor means he already spent a lot of time inside the game. So, mentally…“Dang, old rotting guy,” Matthias blurted, which was heard by Larsen.“You talk sharp, young one,” Larsen teased Matthias. “Talk to elders with respect.”Ignoring Larsen’s words, Matthias walked away. “Are you not going to ask me more about this game?” Larsen shouted as Matthias took a step further and further away from him.“No need, thank you. I’ll f

As Larsen faded, Matthias slowly walked away from the monsters so that he wouldn't end up like their last victim, hanged upside down and conscious while being bitten bit by bit by the monsters as if savoring a delicacy. Small dark elves, that’s what the monsters are and they are burning and tossing the other humans they captured, shouting and cheering as they pass it to each other to have their comrades taste it. But as Matthias tried to run away from the busy elves, he did not notice a stone in the ground and fell belly first to the ground. Without thinking, he used the ability [Blink] but instead of getting himself far away from the monsters, he ended up back to his previous position which is just barely a hundred kilometers away from the elves. In haste, he tried to crawl out of panic. This led to one elf learning his location. Soon, each of the elves started to recognize that there is an intruder in their vicinity. Squeeee! The tiny humanoid creatures squealed like goblins a

Matthias read Larsen’s title a few more times. “What does being an emperor mean in this game?” he asked, wondering if that title gives him some perks.“It means that I am the rank 1 in my region.”Then Larsen opened his inventory and gave Matthias a book. “That’s a skill book,” he shared. “Take it as a bonus. Usually, newbies like you need to buy that from the in-game stores but I’ll let you have it now since I transferred you very far away from the cathedral.”Matthias opened the book and immediately, a message window popped up.[Blink] The message says and from the descriptions of it, it is an auto-evade skill that can be used 3 times a day according to their in-game time. “How generous…” Matthias said as he pressed [allow] to let the skill consume one of his current 5 skill slots. “Then, good luck,” Larsen said and quickly left the viscounty with his own personal skill. “What?!” Matthias exclaimed when he’s left alone to deal with the chaos inside Penoma Viscounty. “What is h

"Yes, like I told you, there's a lot of things that you need to know and it will take some time to ingrain these things inside your head like second nature."Matthias stared at Larsen as he lay down in one of the capsules to try the game that was being described to him."My assistant, Kira, will be logging in with you, so please wait for us at the cathedral after you create your character," Larsen told him one last time before closing the lid of the capsule to officially start his gaming journey.When Matthias opened his eyes again, he was in a very white place where he could not perceive depth."Hello?" he called but there was no sound coming out of his mouth.Then zzt...and a small window with a keyboard opened.[Please enter your name]Matthias keyed his name but changed his mind halfway and changed it into Mias. But that sounds too girly so he changed it again into Sai, taking the last letters of his name.[Welcome, Sai.] The screen says and then it shows him ways to customize hi

"So, what am I supposed to do now?" Matthias asked Larsen after Larsen and Lorena brought him to a business building he doesn't know of.Lorena's heels made a noise on the hallways of the building they're in which reminded Matthias of his first time entering Mr. Owen's company because the sound feels familiar and at the same time, just a distant memory. Larsen instructed Matthias to enter a room with several capsules in it. "A game?" Matthias asked."Oh, so you know about these games? Virtual realities? These types of VR capsules came out recently and we'll be using these to train your brain."His brain? Matthias couldn't believe what he heard. How can this thing train his brain in the process. "Well, I call it like that but it's just you and me going to simulate a fake life of yours. A minute here outside feels like an hour inside the game. So, to make it feel like a hundred years, the simulation will last for at least one week, 10 hours each day."Wait!" Matthias interrupted. "Do
