Novel Full Chapter 129 - Consequences
( An article from the daily report epaper )
" A string of firings have been confirmed as over 25 thousand employees have lost their jobs overnight from the Ambani corporation . A shocking turn of events as two new board members have been rumored to have joined the corporation . The fires employees are all rioting and filing wrongfull termination lawsuits to the courts... (Full story on page 9 of the paper ) ".
Ethan read the article and smiled , the buzz was created , the stock of the Ambani corporation saw a 3 % dip in a single day , that meant that Ambani lost more than one trillion dollars overnight.
He felt no guilt whatsoever for the string of firings he was responsible for , he was actually happy , as the severance package to fire an employee without notice was actually a lumpsum in the Ambani corporation.
The fate of those who were fired was 100 times better than those who are not , as the shrinking company will see many employees let go and with notice at that, meaning there will be no severance pay.
Ethan wanted to gobble up the Ambani group , and it will take a lot of sacrifices , he could not be shaken by the cries of those he stepped over , as his goal was to reach the top.
Naman was faring even better. He was just happy to be 21 , to be a thorn in his fathers side.
Naomi was the one who was affected the most. The string of firings scared her, as when she saw people protesting on the streets on media , she felt it was because of her.
She wished revenge on her father , but not at the costs of innocent lives , she blamed herself for robbing someones livelihood.
She was sulking and her brother had became someone possesed , she could not talk to him about her problem at all . She tried a few times , however he just shot her down.
Her aunt was finally having the life she wanted , enjoying after taking care of the twins for 15 years , she did not want to bother her as well.
The only person she kind of knew was guild leader Rudra . He seemed like an amiable and approachable person in the limited interactions the two had uptill now . Hence she decided to message him to meet up.

( Cuber corporation )
" The entire thing seems absurd and ridiculous , according to the report the derailment happened as the player aldready knew about the plotline before hand". A senior executive read
" Its the same player we had to negotiate with the last time as well for the bomb incident , the guild leader of True Elites ' Shakuni '. "
" But how can he know the plotline ? , Everyone of us only know bits and pieces of the plot. As everyone was only part of creating bits and pieces of the picture , the entire thing doesnt make sense unless multiple employees collaborated in leaking him the information ".
" No that is not possible , ever since the last incident the AI has been monitoring the movements of every employee , there has been no contact whatsoever with the kid , in real life or the game ".
The atmosphere in the room turned grim. Had the information be leaked , they could have fired the responsible party, ban the player and move on. However now they were back to square 0 , they did not know the source of the problem at all.
" Lets remedy the situation , lets create a jailbreak for the two captured agents , and make them escape with the chalice , lets forcefully remedy the plotline for now and keep a close eye on the movements of the player Shakuni ".
Everyone nodded , they needed to analyse the situation more to pinpoint the exact cause behind the unexpected event.
The game company commanded the AI to now record all statements and actions of the player Shakuni.

( Church of Light , Hazelgroove kingdom )
Rudra was currently inside the Church's warehouse , the same one that he entered when he obtained the platinum guild token.
The one full of treasures of epic rank and above.
The church had decided to reward Rudra with 100 million gold and one artifact of semi legendary grade oe below from the guild warehouse , for his meritorious service to the church.
Rudra was naturally elated , although a bulk chunk of it. 40 million gold would be given to the Won Knight mansion as he was yet to pay on that due of tier 5 identification spell paper, however he earned a lump sum of 60 million gold , his entire expense in the auction had been recouped . The guild was rich again, not to mention the extra semi legendary item he would gain.
Rudra was extremely satisfied with this result , his decision to exploit all sides was paying off well.
Just as Rudra was about to begin his search for the perfect artifact however an unexpected scene occured.
A paladin came rushing into the warehouse and reported that the two heretics had escaped along with the chalice , and the location suspected to be the base of operations for the hidden organization has long been evacuated!
Cardinal Lee looked extremely worried , as he looked towards Rudra in desperation. Rudra himself had never expected such a situation to arise , this was beyond his calculations , how could two heretics flee the church of life's detainment , steal the chalice and run away successfully without causing a commotion?
The two NPC were just tier one , they did not have the strength to pull off such an escape , something huge was amiss here ..... But before he could figure out what was going on , a forced quest appeared.
