When I thought about my previous rich life and the current me, who thought I was not like these rich fools who were blinded by money, I chuckled to myself. When Uncle Alex saw me chuckling for no reason, he had a worried expression on his face. His eyes were full of question. Shaking my head, I said, "It's nothing. I just remembered something from the past. " When Uncle Alex heard my words, he understood I didn't want to elaborate my words, so he didn't ask me about it. But he had a thought in his mind, 'Your past.. You are just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid.. Just what kind of past would you have? One with crawling?'Ignorant of the thoughts of Uncle Alex, we walked further inside towards the next zone. And like Uncle Alex had said before, I was stopped just outside the gate of the third zone. There were two burly bodyguards wearing black clothes and a gun on their hips. When they saw me walking towards the door to the zone, they stepped forward and stopped me. Seeing that I
This game was more or less similar to a game of death, but the difference was just that we didn’t have to take part in this game. We just had to enjoy it by watching it, and betting on players. Uncle Alex subconsciously muttered, “Fuck.”But that’s when he realised I was with him, and he quickly shut his mouth.I smiled slightly and said, “ It’s Okay. I had the same word inside my mind. “ He was silent at first, but he then said, “Is this even worthy of being an arcade? I thought arcades are those areas with pac-man and shit. “I nodded and said, “Indeed. I am surprised they don’t let those below twenty to enter inside the third zone, but they didn’t stop or used some restrictions for underaged here. Shouldn’t this place have such restrictions too? “ Uncle Alex nodded and said, “There should have been.. But I don’t know what’s going on here anymore. This place destroyed the image of an arcade in my mind. “That’s when the black bodyguard beside me said, “Many people come here, more tha
The black bodyguard was trying to act all inconspicuous, but this just increased our doubts about him. Maybe we were being paranoid ever since we entered this place. Finally, when we reached the top of the stairs, what met us was a door. The black bodyguard pushed open the door and motioned us to enter, and we entered the room.When we entered the sixth zone, I was surprised. What we saw was a luxurious zone. It looked quite similar to the palace of the school of supers, in terms of luxury. Seeing this level of luxury made me envy a little.The sixth zone was full of doors. Probably these doors opened to rooms, or else what’s the use of these many doors? The lighting of the sixth zone was good. There was only one chandelier in the sixth zone, on the ceiling, at the center of the zone .Even I found it weird. I thought, ‘How can a single chandelier brighten the entire zone? The sixth zone was the largest zone, so it shouldn’t be possible to light the entire zone by just a single chande
After that, another figure came out and stood beside the green-haired beauty. Seeing the familiar figure, I was all smiles. Because the person standing was none other than my father. He stood there with a smile on his face. All my emotions that were hidden deep inside my heart burst out when I saw my father.Before he could open the door completely, I rushed towards him. Seeing this, the green-haired girl raised her hands. But before she could do anything, she was stopped by Uncle Alex. Even though she was reluctant, with a frown, she lowered her hands.Ignoring the green-haired beauty who was about to attack. I hugged my dad tightly. Under the attack of my hug, dad couldn’t move. He had a bitter smile, while he patted my back, and returned my hug. He motioned Uncle Alex to enter the room. After that he broke the hug, while shaking his head.I was reluctant, but then I broke the hug with a sigh. My dad looked at the black bodyguard and nodded his head, thanking him for helping me and
But what we didn’t know was, it wasn’t just Virtzo we were against. It was the whole ideals of humanity on what they call ordinary. And changing people’s ideology has been the most difficult thing in the entire universe. Even the ancient Greek scholars faced it. Just because of their different ideology, they got punished.Some say- It isn’t numbers that matter, it is strength. Just that one sentence is right and wrong. What if you are powerful? Say you are a super with a fire-based ability. But you have hundreds of opponents with water-based ability. Do you think you can win easily? It may be or may not be possible. These depends on your luck.I called Mom quickly, after dad explained everything to me. At first, dad said not to inform mom, but I insisted on informing her. Because I knew how worried she was because of all this matters about dad.Finally, after dad agreed, I called Mom and talked with her using Uncle Alex’s phone. I even contacted Omni, using Uncle Alex’s watch. Well, I
Dad hurried Uncle Jack. His face said the worried he had for Uncle Jack. Uncle Jack suddenly gasped and opened his eyes wide. He was gasping again and again, as if he can not breathe. But then his gasps returned to normal breathing. His eyes quickly searched the entire room and finally landed on me, and then on my dad. He wasn’t surprised to see me, as if he had already known I was in the room. Either he had sensed my presence or he has some kind of supernatural powers that allows him to perceive such things. But his expressions gave me this weird feeling as if something was terribly wrong. Dad asked Uncle Alex if he was alright; who in return motioned Dad to lean near him. When dad bent near him, he murmured something in his ears. Dad then stood straight and asked all of us to leave the room, since Uncle Jack had something to speak with Dad, alone. He specially emphasised on the word alone. So everyone understood that this was what Uncle Jack had whispered to Dad. So we obediently
We somehow got out of the Lux. The zones in the Lux were bustling with people, like it was a market. Celia almost got lost in the crowd of people. So after I found her, I held her hands to prevent her from getting lost in the crowd again. I don't know why, but her face was red and heat radiated from her body, like it was lit on fire.When I asked her if she was alright, Celia didn't reply and instead her face was full of black lines. Then she looked at me and snorted coldly. 'How did I become the villain? ', I yelled in my mind.With a sigh, I shook my head and pulled her towards the door to the elevator that I had come up earlier with Uncle Alex. The elevator door closed and slowly it started descending. I whistled a tune softly. Suddenly Celia stomped on my feet and muttered, "Rogue. "'The heck. What have I done? ', I thought with black lines on my forehead. I sighed silently and stopped whistling. Instead, I looked down at the glass panels on the elevator. Thankfully, the bodyguar
After a minute, we broke apart. We were reluctant to break the kiss, but we still had to breathe, don't we? I still felt the warmth of Mia's lips, and even her scent lingered on me. Mia shyly looked down at the floor, while her face was red like a tomato.I chuckled when I saw Mia's shy side. When she heard me chuckling, she frowned and looked at me. Then she pouted and said, "Humph.. I won't talk to you. " With a smile, I said, "Alright.. I am sorry, okay? See, I am even holding my ears. " I said while holding my ears. She still pouted her lips and acted as if she was ignoring me. But the smile on her lips wasn't missed by me.To be on the safe side, I thought of something. Then I looked at the figure of Mia, who was looking away from me, while her body was turned.I smiled and hugged her from behind, and rested my chin on her shoulder, while leaning my head to her. She was stiff when she felt me hugging her. I smiled while I hugged Mia. But then I broke free, because the smell of he
