Reality Game Changer Chapter 89
Alex glanced at the digital clock in Emma's room only to do a double take - had it really been 24 hours since he had blacked out during the Nexus system integration? A surge of disbelief and panic gripped him as the reality set in. He had been completely unconscious, his mind adrift for an entire day while evolving into...whatever he had become.Wasting no more time, Alex leapt off Emma's bed and rushed out of her room, the door slamming open with a bang. He needed to orient himself, assess if anything had changed in the physical world during his metaphysical odyssey.Hurrying past his own living quarters, Alex did a stunned double-take. His formerly trashed and cluttered room had been completely reset - every piece of scattered furniture neatly arranged, all damage repaired as if nothing had ever happened. But he had no recollection of fixing it himself or anyone else entering.The unsettling strangeness only compounded the growing sense of alienation he felt from his corporeal surro

Alex felt a surge of exhilaration course through his new transcendent consciousness. The perfect opportunity to unveil his latest evolution had arrived. Focusing inward, he activated the Umbral Steps protocol instilled by the Umbra Dragon Legacy.In the span of a single breath, reality itself distorted around them. The shadows seemed to thicken and roil, bleeding outward like an ominous stain consuming the basement's contours. Emma's face creased in confusion as her senses were enveloped by the encroaching penumbra.Suddenly, the very air took on an eerie, almost tactile density that further disoriented her spatial awareness. Up became down, distances warped in the black miasma swirling through her field of perception. An oppressive vertigo gripped Emma as she fought to maintain her balance, struggling against her befuddled senses.In the midst of the shadowrealm churning dark entropy, Alex's form had become utterly untraceable. One moment he was standing across the room, the next he

Emma saw the contact name and she also frowned.“Aren't you going to take it" Nexus asked.“I would, but I'm not sure I'm ready" Alex replied.“Take it, even if you don't want to, you just have to. We all know what's at stake here” Nexus advised.With a deep sight Alex answers the call on speaker " Hello”." Why did you take so much to answer my calls? Where have you been the past 24 hours? I've been calling you and you were not reachable”It seemed like the update from the Nexus System created some kind of barrier around any electronic device around him, which must be the reason why Agent Three was unable to reach him." Must be a provider issues, I have nothing to do with that" Alex replied“Take this as a warning, the next time I am unable to reach you or don't take calls, I would take drastic actions. Hope we have an understanding” Agent Three barked.Alex clenched his fist tightly so hard that they became almost white.“Sure, I understand”.“Good, now let's get to business. The t

Hearing Alex's request, Nexus was the first to respond “Alex, I know you want tj find a way to cure your mum, but don't you think you are taking a risky path? If you go down this road have you ever imagined what would happen to your mum if you fail? Even if you pass and lay your hands on the Crown, how would you be able to get it to your mum? These are a few things I want you to think of before you start on this mad rush of yours” Nexus advised. Alex was mute, although he wanted to get his mum back to shape, there were still a lot of things he needed to be in place.He even thought of the possibility that Agent Three and The Seekers may backstab him when the job is done and he would have to lose everything. He would need to have a plan. Placing her hand on Alex shoulder, Emma said calmly to him “Rushing in blindly now would only cause a lot of troubles, why don't we just locate the Crown first and then make a deal with them, we can simply ask to see your mum, once you know her locati

Alex couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief before returning the mouse back into his inventory.“Now, we need a plan. How do we get Agent Three to disclose the location of my mother without him knowing he has done so?" "To succeed in that, we need to take care of three issues. First is convincing Agent Three to take the bait and lead you to your mother. The second is actually getting to the location and finally, knowing that your mother would be at the same when we attempt the rescue” Nexus proposed.“How about you call Agent Three right now and let him know that you have a request. That if you are able to get the location of the Crown within three days that you would love to see your mom, else there's no deal. That way you would hold him on his word when you succeed in getting the location” Emma suggested.After deliberating internally, Alex saw that both ideas were for the best. First he needed to convince Agent Three that he needed to see his mother after getting the location of

Barely ten minutes after Alex dropped the call on Agent Three, the phone rang.Alex intentionally allowed the call drag a bit before answering. “What took you so long" the angry voice of Agent Three came from the phone.“Seems we have to pay some ground rules" Alex calmly said over the phone. “I may work for you or your organization but I'm not your errand boy. If you feel like you can get to the location of the Crown on your own you can simply come and do it yourself rather than making this all difficult . Secondly, you would never, I repeat, never yell at me when you talk to me again. And finally, I want to meet your superiors before I hand the Crowd over. Do this and we are square”.The call went quiet and Alex simply ignored and waited for Agent Three to talk.After the long wait, Agent Three finally spoke “First, you can see your mum for ten minutes only and that can only happen when we've confirmed the location and we have evidence

Alex was overjoyed seeing that he had another way out of the predicament he found himself, all he needed to do was play his cards right.He started formulating a plan on getting the crown himself.Once he located the Temple, he would immediately start clearing it, he was sure to do this because he already planned on using some form of backup.Secondly, he was planning on telling Agent Three after he had made sure he was close to the Crown or already had the crown on hand.Finally, he would delay her enough for Emma and Nexus to get to his mother and then he would bail on her with the crown in his possession.Although the plan looked full proof, no plan ever went the way it was supposed to but it was still better to have something in hand than nothing. Taking his seat on the deep dive system, Alex attempted to load the VR game.As Alex attempted to log into Elysium Quest, instead of the familiar immersive loading sequence, an error notification from the Nexus system appeared:"CRITICA
