“Camila, are you alright?”“Yeah. I am fine.”She smiled at Olga.“You are dozing off again. Are you sure you are alright?”Olga nodded toward the man standing in front of Olga’s desk.“Yes, yes. Here. Let me count that for you.”She flashed a smile at the player standing in front of her. Camila took the pile of herbs to her side of the desk and started counting them quickly. “Let me add the points for you.”She took the piece of paper attached to the board and wrote the number of points for the player with his completed task. All these were tedious tasks that took much concentration and work.She then had to record these points on the player's profile and send it to the people who added them to the website. The records were important in case someone tried to manipulate their data.She also had to send these herbs and other materials for storage. There was more. They had to hand over equipment to woodcutters, fishermen, and miners. They also had to collect them after the players c
‘What is with this guy?’Amelia stared at Jason as he did some weird moves before sitting on the ground in her backyard. Hanna was playing with her dolls in the sand.‘I should wash her before lunch. Well… She looks happy.’She felt content, looking at Hanna’s joyful expression.Hanna wasn’t the pitiful child she once was. Rather, she behaved like a young girl who grew up in a pleasant home. This made Amelia feel happy about her ability to look after children. ‘Should I make something special for her tonight? The boar meat won’t last long with the number of mouths to feed around the village.’She looked at Jason again. He went to teach hunting to the people from his world yesterday. They caught sizable prey, but there were too many mouths to feed.‘Hm? That breathing pattern? Why is he doing that? Is he unable to use Mana? Did something happen?’Amelia realised what she was looking at. It was cruder than what she knew, but it was a primitive version of something she knew of.She fo
“You have to stay here, okay?”“Uhuh,”Hanna nodded her head, sitting on the chair. She had to sit closer to the rude grandpa, but she didn’t complain. She once heard a woman saying that the parents of children who were not obedient would disappear. Hanna didn’t want her mommy and daddy to disappear. She didn’t want to lose them ever again. Then she would be alone, again.“Let’s go.”Amelia took a wooden sword and walked into the middle of the training ground. This was her backyard, and only the people closest to Jason came there to witness their battle. “We will be right back, okay?”Jason nuzzled Hanna’s head, making her feel happy. “Uhuh.”She nodded her head obediently. …“Don’t worry little girl. Your mother and father will be fine.”Xanders looked at the child with green pupils. He had to make sure she would be safe, or he would have to answer her adopted parents. ‘One is already a monster, and the other is growing into one. The Will of God should be ready to pay a harsh p
“Miss Freya, look!”“Is that a city wall?”“My god… It is so big….”“Freya….”Ashley touched her cousin's hand in excitement as they saw the distant city walls. The first major city they were coming across was just ahead. She felt relieved to see a city after their long travels. The road between the last town and this city was well-built and spacious. They met many travellers along the way, and there were farmlands and small villages on both sides. They met no danger so far, and things looked good.The city wall itself looked massive compared to the towns they saw. “I can't believe we are finally here.”She whispered in exhaustion. Contrary to what Jason said, none of them found a person to train them Mana Breathing, and they were comparable to normal NPCs of The Endless in terms of strength.The only difference was that they were immortals, but they also didn’t have much advantage. They found a scary fact about their spawn points after they left the areas surrounding their spawn t
“This is bad… This is bad….”Ashley whispered as she looked at the forum. The video uploaded by their guild members had created a tide against the Crystal Pulse. The players were demanding explanations from Jason, and many were ridiculing him.“Did he answer the phone?”“No. He sent a message saying he is busy.”She phased back and forth, answering Freya.“Did you find who uploaded the videos?”They expected such a reaction when they saw the city of Ebul, but she wanted to wait and discuss with Jason before uploading these videos. She didn’t expect some of their guild members would upload these videos without their consultation. “I found them. Actually, they are trying to quit the guild with this.”“Quit? What do you mean?”“Look?”Freya showed the three people who had sent their resignation notices.“How dare they do that? Do they think Steel Corporation is a joke?”There was a contract between the gamers and their studio. Things like video recording had to go through them before g
- The recordings of the amazing city of Ebul. The developers had done a great job. - Jason Hope is silent. Where is your confidence? - The Crystal Pulse actively removes the players who want to quit. The condition is that they are not allowed to return to the Crystal Pulse. Who wants to join a scamming website? - Real-life rewards for completing missions for Crystal Pulse. The missions are located all over Yuriel. Thousand US dollars for finding an NPC? - We are only the Media partner for Crystal Pulse. Sky News is not going to be involved in its management: The official statement from Sky News. - Why did the Black Steel Guild go against Jason Hope? Is his rise becoming a problem to the guild? - The missions around Light Shone have increased rewards. Can these big cities give players the opportunity to learn from the Grandmasters? ‘Sigh. Weird… There are still people supporting the Crystal Pulse.’ Jason sighed as he browsed through the forum. Just like the past few weeks, he w
“What am I going to do with this?”He looked at the black orb in disappointment. “What you are going to do is not to show it to anyone else except your master. Do you understand?”‘Huh?’Jason lifted his head and saw Amelia looking at him with piercing eyes. For the first time, he saw some emotions in those cold eyes.‘She is surprised… Why?’“Daddy… What is that…?”Hanna sucked her thumb in curiosity.“I don’t know….”Jason shook his head in a hopeless manner. His heart pained, looking at the black orb that had no value. “He is an idiot. That is it.”Amelia looked furious for a moment about Jason’s answer.“Don’t suck your fingers. It is a bad habit.”Amelia pulled out Hanna’s finger from her mouth with motherly care. Her tone turned much gentler when she spoke to Hanna.“I am sorry, mommy. I won’t do that again.”“Good girl.”Amelia gently rubbed Hanna’s head. She felt enraged when Hanna’s face drastically changed with her simple advice. There was even a slight trace of fear and
Jason stared at Master Merlin with a blank look. Apparently, there were too many things he didn’t know about magic.“According to the theories, the sphere of the cosmos has the minimum power of the four elemental magic spheres. The ability to control the void comes with that. I hope you understand the seriousness of this matter, Jason.”Merlin’s tone turned serious when he spoke about this matter.“You are a wizard with an extremely rare trait. Maybe the only one alive in this era. The others might consider you a competition, or even a threat.”“A threat?”Jason looked at his useless magic.“Don’t be an idiot. It is not working because you don’t know the combination of your magic spheres.”Amelia started to wonder how someone like Jason got lucky to have such a powerful magical sphere despite his idiotic behaviour regarding his unique spell.“Huh? But it should be the four elemental spheres, right?”Jason looked up in confusion. Hanna was watching everything with her mouth gaping open
