章節 51: Snowstorm.
''Kruh...'' The Hobgoblin became stiff. He stumbled backward with the feeling of disbelief visible on his face as he felt a warm liquid trailing down from his forehead.
He touched the hole that shockingly didn't hurt, and with his undeveloped brain, couldn't comprehend his death.
Soon, he turned into pixels.
[You Killed Hobgoblin!]
[600 XP Earned!]
[LEVEL UP!]
[Level 15 -> Level 16]
Bright items landed on the ground after the Hobgoblin died. The items were sucked instantly into Isaac's Inventory before he even had time to check those out.
Isaac opened his Interface and was about to press the Inventory to check the items, but then a message popped up.
[0:00]
[Time's up!]
[Rest Well Player!]
[You have been forcefully logged out!]
Isaac saw bright light covering his vision, and soon he felt himself lying on the soft bed with a familiar white visor in front of his eyes.
''Ah.'' Isaac felt his body being very stiff. First time since he was in the hospital after the incident, his body was in a state of relaxation for 10 straight hours.
He took off his Helmet and stood up, but his body had become numb. The Bronze Helmet doesn't keep the body energetic— that's why it gathers so much hate.
Even Silver Helmet keeps the mind fresh and the body energetic.
But, the Bronze Helmet doesn't have any fancy stuff.
''Oh right... Dinner, why did no one come to invite me?'' Isaac curiously left the room— he even forgot to put the VR Helmet back in the box.
Soon, he entered the living room and saw his parents sitting on the couch while watching the TV.
Isabella heard familiar footsteps. The footsteps were soft and quiet— she instantly recognized them as Isaac's footsteps!
''Isaac, did you have fun?'' Isabella turned her head and asked with a gentle smile.
Isaac smiled and walked to the couch, ''Why didn't you guys invite me for dinner?''
''We thought you were busy,'' Maxwell said, but there was also another reason.
It was a shocking sight to see Isaac playing for the whole 10 hours straight!
Isaac nodded— he stretched his numb body parts. His entire body felt unfamiliar, like he hadn't moved for days.
''Is your body numb?'' Maxwell turned his head around and asked.
Isaac sighed and nodded, ''Yeah...''
''We can buy you a better VR Helmet.'' Isabella instantly told him.
Maxwell nodded, ''We can afford it.''
Isaac shook his head, ''No need to spend money on me...'' He sighed and turned around, ''I will probably quit the game soon anyway...''
He started walking towards the kitchen while Isabella and Maxwell looked at each other with knowing smiles.
''He won't stop, right?'' Isabella asked with a gentle smile.
Maxwell looked at Isaac, who entered the kitchen, ''Have you ever seen him interested in anything?''
Isabella chuckled and shook her head, ''This is the first time...''
''MOM! DAD!'' Alice entered the living room with a panicked face.
''Honey, what is it?'' Isabella asked curiously— she frowned as she saw Alice's body shaking.
''ISAAC HAS BEEN KIDNAPPED!'' Alice cried out with teary eyes.
Isabella and Maxwell looked at each other with tilted heads.
''I was kidnapped? When?'' Isaac left the kitchen with a sandwich in his mouth.
''ISAAC!'' Alice cried out and trapped him in a hug.
''OOF!'' Isaac felt his spine about to be broken.
''I went to your room, and then I saw the VR Helmet on the bed, but you were nowhere to be seen!'' Alice cried out and hugged even tighter.
''M-My spine!'' Isaac cried out, and finally, Alice woke up from her state of shock, and she released Isaac.
She shyly twirled her hair, ''Oops.''
Isaac rubbed his painful back.
''I am sorry...'' Alice apologized with a bow.
''It's fine...'' Isaac said with a gentle smile, but his manliness received another big hit.
'Even my little sister is stronger than me! Why am I here, just to suffer?' He felt like crying, but it would cause another panic.
''Anyway...'' Alice hopped next to Isaac and whispered, ''Oliver asked how you were doing.''
Isaac's eyes widened, but he quickly hid his expression, ''Is that so...''
''I don't know why you are hanging out with him. He is creepy,'' Alice said with an innocent smile.
''Alice, it is not nice to call someone creepy.'' Isabella reminded gently.
Alice showed her tongue and ran towards the upstairs.
Isabella smiled and shook her head. She turned her head back to the TV.
''Oh, 2 billion users already,'' Isabella said with slight shock.
''This is only the beginning,'' Maxwell said mysteriously.
Isabella pouted and put her head on Maxwell's shoulder. Their daily flirting session began.
Isaac started walking upstairs before he started vomiting.
He stopped on the second floor— he looked outside the window and saw a heavy snowstorm.
Snow was piling up, covering the streets and road. Snowstar is famous for its weekly snowstorms, and for some, that makes Snowstar a lousy place to live in.
But, Isaac felt a familiarity with the snow. Once he was a child, he got lost in the nearby forest, and that day had one of the worst snowstorms in recent memory.
Hundreds of buildings collapsed because the snow piled up on the roofs. The ones with better houses were fine, except they could barely leave the houses because the snow had piled up in front of their front doors.
But, the ones with poorer living conditions were in a miserable situation, but that's where Whitelock Company came to help. They rebuilt every destroyed building and made them even better!
Now, if another snowstorm of that caliber happens, every house and its residents will be safe from harm.
That made the Whitelock Family's reputation soar.
When news about Isaac's disappearance during the snowstorm surfaced. Thousands of citizens helped the Whitelock family to search for him.
But, no one found him.
After three days, Isaac returned without a scratch on his body.
The snow guided him, and he managed to return safely.
Isaac didn't really remember much about his childhood, but that was the first time he encountered World of White!
