Capítulo 15: Chapter 15 - Jeremy
"What good is ye world when ye canst not livest hither." K. Hari Kumar
The terrible fact of life is described well in a quotation from the novel "that frequent visitor." It is one of those facts that you can never adequately express or comprehend. What is the point of having such a lovely planet if we can't live on it forever? No matter how we look at it. It is unavoidable that we cannot escape the rules of nature. Despite the adage that everything in the world has an extinction point, we cannot let the fear of extinction keep us from continuing our efforts. Life does play strange games, and some of those truths are so frightening that any sane human would shun them. Perhaps I do as well. I try to avoid that as well. We all have our universe of imagination in which we inhabit. Some may refer to it as a realm full of fairies, while others refer to Shangri-la, their cohorts, or games.
"What about the red runes, Fairy Lu?" Yeol questioned.
"Umm...they're mysterious, Yeol. If you're a P2W player, you'll know about them." Fairy Lu answered.
"Thank you. Is there a particular build that you recommend I go for?"
"Well, to be honest, I am not the best person to ask about builds; nevertheless, because I am unfamiliar with it, you may ask Xu when he returns; he is a build master." - Fairy Lu.
"Sure, by the way, could you tell me where he went? You mentioned he went on exploration; may I ask which expedition?"
"Hmm... I wish I had some insights. I'm not sure. Xu left a letter indicating he was going to investigate a village map. I can't recall the name. Perhaps it was a demon's village, "Fairy Lu responded.
"No need to worry, fairy Lu. I'll return later to check on Master Xu. For the time being, I'll sign off. Great night ".
"Good night, Yeol," Fairy Lu said as she waved goodbye.

"Playing with you guys today was enjoyable. I'll see you all tomorrow. I'm leaving now, "Yeol said in the faction conversation.
"As far as I remember, I did not see your name among the top twenty during the server launch event's level race. Why?" I typed.
"Yes, I need just one more level to be in the top 20. I then considered utilizing an offline efficiency technique. I'll check again just before midnight, aiming to place among the top 20, "Yeol commented that she was disappointed.
"Okay, bye-bye, Yeol. Little child, take care of yourself." I saw her off.
It had been a while since Yeol had enjoyed a good day. She encountered many colorful characters throughout these nine hours of gaming, and perhaps some of them will remain in her life indefinitely. Never worry; it got off to a fantastic start. Yeol gave it her all to finish in the top 20 for the level rush, but she couldn't do so. However, she was a free-to-play player and could not count on much assistance. Nevertheless, she was content to be a part of a fantastic game, even if she could barely speak to anyone. That was far preferable to nothing.
"Yeol, come downstairs for supper mom is home," Yeol's father said.
"Coming, dad," Yeol remarked as she took off her headgear.
She gently boxed up the headgear and stored it in the cabinet. Since she had just gotten Jeremy's package and hadn't even called him to thank him, she decided to phone him. She had a lot to say because she spent the entire day experimenting with the virtual reality Quest2 Headset. She was interested in learning more about who pre-registered for her as well. After supper, she went to her room and rang Jeremy.
"Hello, Yeol. "Did you receive my gift, the little devil?" said Jeremy as he answered the phone.
"Indeed, dumbo... But why did you send me a virtual reality headset? You already know that I am not a prominent gamer. Therefore this will be useless to me. "What made you so convinced that I'd play it and that it'd be just what I needed?" Yeol queried, bewildered.
"You idiot. I am acutely aware of all of your sentiments. Let me know how your experience was first, and then I'll explain why I chose to give it to you."
"First, tell me how you know. Then I'd talk about my experience with VR Quest2."
"Wakata(Okay in Japanese)...I would let you know about it first."
"You're a wonderful lad. continue."
"So while I was there for winter break last year, I was the one who pre-registered for Immortal Destiny - A gaming adventure. As a supporter of a friend, I enlisted you to join his new game. Game manufacturer Neoncraft Gamers created it, a relatively new firm on the market. I wanted to help out a friend's business. So I thought you should give it a go. Because it is a game that will improve your social skills, I sent you Quest2 to help you become a professional gamer." Jeremy articulated.
"I realize you wanted to help your friend, but what made you so certain about the gaming thing? That's what I'd do. What if I disregarded the notification? Still, I'm not interested in being a professional gamer, bro." Yeol asked a series of queries once more.
"I'm not sure, but my gut instinct was that you'd want to try something new." Perhaps the lockdown fueled my natural inclination. Anyway, how's your new journey going?"
"Hmm...so there's much to say about it. I met many new folks. You should know that I received an in-game bond proposal. I saw that the top players are harmonious. They are not conceited. In a level rush, I even made it to the top 30 players."
"Really, who proposed an in-game bond?"
"Someone named Anonymous," Yeol continued, her eyes twinkling. She stated, "he would wait until I reached level 213. He appears to be encouraging and, more significantly, protective of me. He is also the top player on the server. Isn't that cool?"
"Yes, it is very cool. However, that's the first time I've noticed you are showing an interest in a guy. Wait on Yeol; are you certain he's a man?" – Jeremy.
"Yes, I suppose he was a male. I never questioned that. But he was a beta tester, so I presume it's he. I'm not certain." Yeol conveyed her dissatisfaction.
"Never mind, Yeol. Playing is most important, but what's most important is that you enjoy it. Oh, did I tell you about the server where I'm playing?"
"You didn't, Jeremy. I had no idea you were playing as well. You caught me off guard. Which server do you belong to?"
"I'm playing on NA Server 2. What else did you discover today?"
"I learned about Faction, Rune System, Server Launch events, Skills, Rebirth quest, PK, Nine-floor viper, Demigods, disciples, and Soul of Ice."
"Soul of Ice? What's that?"
"I don't know anything about it either. For me, it was a pre-registration present. As I checked skills with NPC Xu, he told me that most players have four special powers. However, it was odd that even he was unaware of the fifth skill, 'soul of ice.'"
"Yeol, even I don't have that talent. You truly are a special snowflake." Jeremy remarked, smiling and teasing Yeol.
"Hmph! I despise you, Jeremy. You're joking with me. I'm not going to talk to you, "said Yeol, her cheeks quivering.
"Sorry about that, Yeol. It's too late in Japan right now, so go to bed. I'm also getting ready for my classes."
"Okay. Have a wonderful day, Jeremy." Yeol stated as she hung up the phone.
*In Los Angeles*
"Was that you? Did you make her a proposal?"
"It was, indeed, me. However, we would have to wait for the merger. I can't use two accounts at the same time. I have a lot on my plate. Career comes first, followed by the girl."
