Chapter 1863 The Countdown Begins
"Bah! What do you know? How can you pick that corny flip phone design to this superior Slider design?"
Hmph! Naive... Do you know the feeling I get when I clap the flip phone closed? It just makes sense for it to close up like a sea clam, showing its no longer in use. What's the point of sliding it up and down? The screen is still exposed, so what evidence is there that you are truly done with the call?"
"Dammit! You all stop arguing for me! Obviously, none of your choices can compare to the 4th design. Can't you see how big it looks? It is obviously for important people. And look at the buttons... There are more buttons here for texting and typing... It obviously looks like a mini computer miraculously crafted to fit this tiny device."
"Once again, I'm impressed by your lack of appreciation for simplicity. Obviously, the 3rd design is the best. Why must a phone be big like the 4th design or be a slider or flip phone with so many complications? I think design 3 is the best, simple, sturdy and practical.... Design 2 isn't bad either. I like the antenna feature on design 2. Look, you can also extend the antenna a little bit too. Isn't this enough?"

Landon watched his sworn brothers fight over which phone was better and was about to remind them that they were still in the presence of the ministers and everyone else. But when Landon turned around, he saw that it wasn't just them, but everyone else who was arguing about which design was the best.
Team Slider phone was on one side, team simplicity and practicality was on another, team large phone was on another, and team Flip phone also gathered to let their arguments get heard. Blink, blink~
Landon blinked his eyes severally, before sighing and slowly leaving the site.
It was amazing that even now, no one even noticed his disappearance. Landon didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.
Again, the gaming headsets provided are just life changing in their opinion. All in all, the experience of gaming , watching anime or streaming in this cafe was out of this world. Moving on, the 4th, 5th and 6th floors are dedicated for those who want private Computer booths. Each booth had computers placed in a round table formation. And since all screens are elevated and attached to a circular structure above them, everyone can see themselves and talk to each other while doing their thing on the computer screens.
Of course, the booth has more equipment than what's offered in the floors below. For one thing, it's important to talk about how crazy the gaming chairs were. Crazy! The chairs light up in Dark Mode, which was a setting feature for the Lights in the room. Once in Dark Mode, everyone felt they were gaming in some other world. That said, not just anyone can use these booths. Only those with Silver or Gold memberships have the right to do so.
People who have no memberships can experience gaming on the 2nd floor and 3rd floors. The 4th and 5th floors can be used for those with Silver and Gold memberships... But you see... the 6th floor can only be accessed by those with Gold memberships. The experience was indeed mindblowing the higher one went. And finally, there was one other thing they must note about the ground floor... Apart from the simple cafe there, there was also a giant arena that took 80% of the ground floor's size. That was where the MAG Cafe hosts its yearly Gaming competition.
No joke, the gaming arena setup they had going on there was legendary. Thousands and thousands of people came over yearly just to watch the sensational event.
The building itself was extremely massive in length and width, so sometimes, other events like the anime convention also got hosted there too.
In the end, with all the benefits the Cafe had to offer, how could Mirv Prince Julian choose any other membership than Gold?
Thinking of the remaining Mirvs in Baymard, Landon smiled wryly. 'So long as they're having a good time, that's all that matters.'

Like that, time seemed to wind down slowly for many in wait for the grand day to arrive. Soon, April passed with many buying their first flight tickets. And now, many found themselves in the month of May, feeling more anxious than ever!
Bahahahahahahah~... Soon, they will touch the skies.
This was what many told themselves when looking at their calendars over and over again.
But what they didn't know, was that they weren't the only ones feeling impatient when seeing the atmosphere grow warmer by the day.
