The table was full but it was completely silent, no one wanted to speak first, since no one knew exactly how to begin, but there was someone arrogant enough to speak unnecessary things.
"Well if no one says anything in the next 2 minutes I'm going to retire, my time is extremely precious," and it was exactly John, he tweaked his watch and looked back at the others.
The face of many people changed, the only one who was isolated was exactly him, and so everyone thought that he would be what he wanted most to stay here, friends are not always easy to do.
A random spectator said, "Good to get out, number 2 is just number 2 ", John's face had no alarming expression. He just said "does he speak for you?"
Everyone was silent and in that time the clock of John says whistle that it's been 2 minutes "well your time is up by now, and just be careful with the game because I heard from some teachers that the game can be something much bigger than just a game"
Of all only 4 people understood the gravity of the situation, but John did not seem to explain anything and was already leaving when a low and tremulous voice was heard "please stay"
The voice came from number 5, his face turned completely red after speaking loudly in the presence of so many people.
"Hm, you're really cute, but I do not think everyone agrees with you, so I must withdraw," his face held an endless sadness, those who did not know him could have believed.
The young woman seemed to have exhausted all her courage and no longer answered, but that does not mean that nobody would do it "well, you know exactly how to play, worthy of the number 1, those who are against him stay can withdraw, this conversation is of extreme importance to us and so it is also of extreme importance to you "
The boy's face was showing how sorry he was, his friend punk number 4 asked him to do it.
A smile appeared on John's face, he seemed content with number 3, "Miss Draynes, thank you for your consideration"
The girl just shook her head in response, then the boy was kicked out of the table and the accused came back.
What followed was John explaining what he heard and from his own conclusions, answers were given, but none could get close to what John wanted to hear except for one.
"I believe that the game can be a door to something bigger, something that can break the balance of the world, the world has evolved fast, but a theory still needs to be proven and that is the alternative reality"
Three people felt the cold sweat trickling down his spine, John had already thought about it, but he found it too ridiculous to be able to speak out loud, but now that number 5 also shares his conclusion things may be different.
Many laughs were heard from the spectators and the face of number five turned completely red from beet, she seemed to be holding her tears already, her hands were red from the extreme strength she was exerting.
"Enough of your idiots, anyone who dares to laugh at Miss Pierce will have to meet with me and I dare say that no one at this table can afford the consequences of such stupidity"
No one else dared to laugh, and number five flushed for another reason, "Grace explain more about why you find this"
"Well, I was born in a capital city and no living being from there looks like a generic npc in game, history, culture, emotions, all these points seem so human, I myself was deceived and lost my item of mission"
John was born in an initial village but his master tried to recruit Lily, many people began to think and had three more people who said they had been cheated or robbed, had a girl who was even kidnapped.
"Good Grace, what capital city are you in?, I'm going to a capital city because of a mission that maybe..."
"My city is called Blue Dragon and we are located near a crystal mountain, I heard stories that in the mountain sleeps the guardian of the city that is a blue dragon, no one is allowed to enter the mountain except by the ruler of the city and the priest"
John knew that this might not be the city he would go to so he gave up on getting more information about the place.
In the following hours each spoke of his adventures, levels classes among other things, but the top five only gave nick and level, the rest they kept secret, the spectators thought that they were playing about the game and so did not take very seriously .
"Wait are you Jakscrz ?, my God you saved my life, mano without you my character would have died in the fire"
Two more people said almost the same thing, John was the first to leave the table and as soon as he left the others began to talk about him.
Afterwards the others also left, no one knew much about the game in the first place and if everything they heard was right, it is very likely that an unprecedented calamity would occur to the world.
sorry for the short chapter :V
