Chapter 13 Daddy got another confession?

“Nice! Let’s go and hunt some wolves.” SilverTongue brings out his status and goes to the main menu. In the main menu, there were only four options that can be accessed with voice commands as well. There were other options like news and maps, but these were on the sideline.

Status!

Inventory!

Friends!

Log-Out!

Among them, Status and Inventory are used frequently inside the game. Friends hold three mini statuses inside it. One belongs to the friend list. One belongs to the friend quest. And, finally, the last one belongs to the party.

SilverTongue opens the Party panel and Brian’s name appears on his screen panel. His eyes widened when he sees the name. He lifts his head and shouts.

“You are DragonRider97? The one who created the skill? Wow! You are only level four?”

When his words entered others’ ears, they also looked at him with shocked faces.

“Wait, you mean he is DragonRider97? Are you sure? That’s the seventh person in the entire game who created the skill.” Ms. Sherly turned her at SilverTongue and shouted at him. Her voice was quite scary.

[SilverTongue has invited you to the party. Would you like to join?]

[Yes] [No]

Brian clicks on yes and four different panels appeared above other people.

[DragonRider97 has joined your party.]

[Name-DragonRider97

Race- Human

Level- 4]

“You really are DragonRider97!” Ms. Sherly froze into solid rock as she pointed her finger at Brian.

“Why is her reaction so big?” Brian thought they would react in some way but her reaction was quite out of control.

Hearing his question, the other three sighed and lowered their heads.

Fifteen Minutes Ago,

“Wow, I can’t believe someone managed to create a skill once again. How do they actually do it? Don’t tell me they are they practice some crazy martial arts and use it here?” Ms. Sherly looked at the big announcement and asked.

In front of here, SilverTongue, Davestone, and Tempest shrugged their shoulders.

“No matter what, his future will be bright now. I heard once you create a skill, you get quite a crazy quest and rewards pushing you to the peak of this world. The other six who have created their own skills are now the big shots of this and the real world.” SilverTongue explained with a sigh.

“What? Really?” Ms. Sherly turned at him and asked with wide eyes.

“Of course! The first one to create the skill is now considered equal to the top ten strongest heroes. Not only that, but he is also the heir of the Golden Wing Industry with a net worth of over 10 Trillion Dollars. His name is David Wincer.”

“All of those six people are from rich families with a net worth of trillions. I heard they have taken some high-end lessons from top martial artists which allows them to understand the skill.” SilverTongue nodded his head and answered.

Hearing his words, Ms. Sherly’s eyes twinkled.

“Wow! If I marry such a guy, wouldn’t I be able to live in heaven?”

“Pfft! Marry them? Don’t have such an unrealistic goal! They are powerful superheroes. You would never even see them.” SilverTongue poured cold water into her mind. She instantly felt defeated but her will to get married burned like flames from her eyes.

“I don’t know if I ever see them or not but if I ever find them, I will definitely confess them.”

……..

‘C-c-con-con-confesssssss……’ Ms. Sherly couldn’t utter a single word in her mouth even though she wanted to confess to him.

A rich life, happy life, everything is waiting for her if she just confesses to him.

‘Are you going to confess?’

‘You are going to confess, right?’

‘You are not going back in your words, right?’

Suddenly, she got chilling vibes from her side. She turned her eyes at three of her friends and noticed their eyes telling her to confess.

‘Damn! They just want to see me getting rejected. I am sure that’s what they want. But…. If I don’t confess, wouldn’t that mean going back in my words? I must confess. Let’s try it!’

She clenched her fists and lifted her head. She looked straight into his eyes and shouted “Mr. DragonRider97, my name is Sherly Walker. I am twenty-three and single. My goal is to become a ninth rank superhero. Please marry me!”

“Sorry, I have a daughter.” Brian raised his hand and apologized while looking away. There was a slight trace of blush on his cheek.

‘Oh f**k! How can someone confess to a person so casually? Is our society so degraded? Is she a hoe?’

He slightly looked at her face and saw tears pouring down her eyes. Brian’s eyes widened.

“I’m sorry. Please don’t cry! I do have a daughter but that’s not the reason why I rejected you. You are good. You are cute”

Before he continued, he placed his hand on her forehead and continued with a smile on his face “In fact, I would be an idiot to reject you if we knew about each other. It would be a guy’s blessing to marry a cute lady like you.”

“So, don’t cry! These tears do not look good on your face.”

Ba-dump!

At this moment, Brian didn’t know that he had done another misdeed just by smiling. He wasn’t too handsome or someone with sparky life but whenever he smiles, he pulls the universe on his lips.

From Sherly’s perspective, she was gazing at the colorful stars all over his lips. Her heartbeat skipped like never before. She knew Brian wasn’t exceptionally good-looking to fall for him at first sight but that smile.

It was something else. Her face turned bright red as she ran away.

“Huh! Did I say something wrong?” Brian innocently turned his head at the boys and asked.

“Well, just forget about her! Anyway, let’s move on. She will follow us closely.” SilverTongue sighed and pointed towards the western side of the forest.

Brian gave her another look and sighed. Actually, he couldn’t feel any kind of feeling from her. After his breakup and the death of his parents, he simply isolated himself from love. Loving someone is great but when you break up, it hurts.

‘Only Charlotte understands this! After the death of her parents, even she started isolating herself. I am sure she doesn’t love anyone. I am blessed that she actually agreed to take care of Ely. I think she sees her own past in me and I am grateful for that.’

Brian thought while moving towards the west. The journey wasn’t long. They quickly reached there but just when they reached, their eyes widened. There were wolves in front of them but the number was outrageous.

“30, no maybe 40, or it could even be 50. How are we supposed to fight them?” Davestone turned his head at SilverTongue and asked.

?(O)??? ‘Did they actually grow so much in just two years? I guess making half male and half female at the start was really a bad choice. Now, we can’t finish this quest, and f**k, I also have to bear the punishment for joining the group at the last moment.’

“But, we can’t go back. The punishment is 100 God’s Coins from each. How are we supposed to pay them back?” SilverTongue’s face turned ugly seeing such a huge group of wolves. Although he knew he must fight, he can’t win.

And, once he dies, his level will reach minus. That would be terrible because it would also hamper his real body.

“So, are we just going to send ourselves to death? Look, most of them are level four or level five. If it was level two or three, we would’ve succeeded but they are not.” Davestone glared at SilverTongue and spoke. His voice was low but his tone was filled with anger.

‘Should I use it? If I can decrease their strength by half, we would be able to defeat them but then the curse will start affecting me even more. Oh yeah! This guy.’

Suddenly, Brian’s eyes fell on Tempest. He was still holding his book but it was closed. He stared at him for a moment and shook his head.

‘I don’t think he has read that book. Without the knowledge, his magic can’t do anything.’

Although he said that, he kept glancing at Tempest from time to time.

“Umm…. Can you tell me why you are looking at me like that?” Tempest got the glance of Brian sneaking a peek at him and asked with a shy face.

‘Alright! Let’s ask him. Even if he doesn’t have it, I would have no choice but to use it.’ Brian finally decided to ask. He walked up to Tempest who lowered his head with a blush on his face.

‘That kid is seriously shy. Is he cross-dressing? Nah!’

“Kid, have you ever read Love of Cursed Fate?” Brian rejected the thought of him being a girl because of the flat airport and asked.

“You know about that book?” Tempest widened his eyes as he looked at Brian with surprise.

“Don’t tell me you have really read it?” Brian’s eyes also widened when he asked.

“Umm! I read it just yesterday. It was quite sad that they could never get to be together due to the curse.” Tempest nodded his head and answered.

“Cool! Since you read that book, you must have learned something about curses, right? I want you to visualize Anti-Curse and use it on me.”

“Huh?”

…….

I think Ely needs a new dress. I have an idea. How about we buy the virtual dress with some powerstones? But, currently, I don’t have that many powerstones.

Vote powerstones so that Ely can buy a cute dress.
