Chapter 79: A Dilemma.
1092 Words
"Well then... This is going to be a hard thing to choose."
After finishing the Haunted Terror and getting the Royal Capital Key... I encountered something that I needed to finish before going to Ibiza and that something is a decision. I need to make the decision to either open up the gate to the Royal Capital of Coggensville, Cogs Villa.
The Royal Capital Key allows me to open up the gate that is on the Northern Side of Coggensville. Which is near my Smithy. It would open up a brand new city that is bigger than Coggensville and more lively than Coggensville.
There's only one key to the Royal Capital and that key is with me. If I put it in, all players would be able to enjoy the Royal Capital and potentially find more quest to do, not to mention, their smithy progress will be a lot faster because all of the smithy in there is on par with my smithy...
The key that I'm holding is not only the key to the royal capital, it's the key of the game entire progress... Tomorrow, I'm going to Ibiza. That means that I can't really explore the royal capital, even if I do it today, I have limited time to do things...
Logically thinking, it's better for me to keep the entire royal capital by myself until the meet is finished. Not only it gives me some break, it also gives other player some time to catch up to my progress. Currently, ain't no one even close to me. It will take them months to catch up to me at this point, even so... If I were to open it, I want to open it in Ibiza. That does mean that I need to have a VR system in the hotel.
Knowing the meeting... There should be some... So yeah, Logically thinking, I shouldn't worry too much about not opening the door right away...
That's what my logic is telling me. My Competitor side is telling me that, I shouldn't let other people even enter the damn the Royal Capital. I should keep it until I'm finished. Ain't no way they're going to catch up to me. So whatever time I open it, I'm going to be the one finishing it anyway. So, I have nothing to worry about...
So. for now, I won't bother with the key. As there's too much content for me to give to other people...
I decided to log out entirely and sit up on my bed..
"Phew... I'm a douchebag. But for the sake of my progress... Please stay quiet for a while."
I muttered that as soon as I take off my headset... Over where my PC is sitting... Michi muttered...
"What progress now, Shiro?"
She's sitting on my chair with both feet up while eating a bowl of soup noodle.
"Well, some stuff that you'll know soon enough. Not worth mentioning it out now because I want to forget about it."
"Hmmm... That's new... You never really hide anything about games. So, for you to hide something right now... It's definitely suspicious. Are you afraid that I'm going to take your progress again?"
"Obviously.... Not! It's just a progress in general. Like, the public. The key to the global progress is mine for now. So, that's why I tell you I want to forget about it..."
"Ah... It's about tomorrow case huh. Speaking of that... I've packed all of our things. Since we're going to be there for a considerable amount of time... I packed four suitcase worth of stuff..."
"That's... A lot of stuff to pack... What did you pack?"
"Well, most of them are our clothes. Some of them are necessary 'protection'. Like, quite a lot of them."
What the hell? Did I just hear that right? I mean, I ain't gonna complain. Because, it's a good time for me to let go of the one thing that is very precious for us both. Our, virginity, well, before things get dirty, it's probably good if I move away from that topic.
"Anyway, Thanks a lot for packing my stuff up. I've been playing for a while now and I'm planning to pack it right now. But, since you pack it up for me. I guess I'll give you ALL of my TIME right now."
From behind the gaming chair that Michi's sitting on right now... I hug her along with the chair. Since my arms is pretty long, I can easily touch my hands against each other and hug her in between...
"Well, if you want to spend time together, at least let's go out to the living room. Father and Mother are both out. That way, I can finish up my noodles as well."
"Did you hate my room now? I mean, we pretty much sleep and do stuff here. Why the change now?"
"From time to time, I want to do it away from our room. Since, I want to spend more time. If we do it in here, I'm going to sleep."
Ah... She makes a lot of sense... The room we're staying in is definitely comfortable. If we were to have a normal date here... Which is on the bed just spending time... That's the recipe to sleep! Not a date...
"Alright. I'll wait outside. You finish your noodles and then we can spend time together in the Living Room."
That's what I've decided... Thinking too much and trying to pick the best option from that thinking process is unnecessary. What is necessary for me to do right now is just wait for her to finish...
After arriving at the Living Room... I sat down on the couch cross legged for some reason and go through my phone. That's when I notice. I have one unread email that's been sitting for three hours...
"It's from... Tywin... Okay..."
I decided to immediately read the email and the content of the email sent by Tywin is...
'Congratulation, Mr. OneSec for your achievement to find the first ever main scenario pieces in Eclipse Online. But I'd like to remind you that tomorrow at 7 AM, Your plane are going to be waiting for you. Please come there before that time so that you can have the most wonderful flight in your life.'
"Well, the choice that I make is the correct one."
With Tywin confirming the fact that I should focus on Ibiza... I have nothing to worry about regarding my choice to gatekeep the gate to the royal capital...
