The Ancients World

I am sitting with my family and dad has a very serious look on his face. He looks like he wants to address something, but he is hesitating. Mom is giving him a glare and I can honestly not remember what happened here. "Honey if you don't talk to her about it I will." Okay now I am having some inkling of a memory. I think this is when dad tries and forces Hailey to get a job to help pay the bills around here. Dad doesn't look like he is going to speak, he has always had a soft spot for Hailey. Mom favors the sons more these days. "Fine, I'll be the one to do it." When mom says that dad releases a big sigh and puts down his silverware.

I look over to Hailey and I know what that look says. She is ready to fight this out to the bitter end, I'll give her credit. She has be trying really hard to become an actress, but it isn't working out. I think I can stop this clot in our family if I tell them I have an item worth millions. None of them understand or play the game so they won't have a chance to find out my game identity. The problem would be my parents bragging. Marcus will eventually start to play, but that isn't for awhile.

Contemplating this, I can save a meltdown of our family. I think I should at least see if it goes in the same direction as last time. "Hailey, your father and I have been really needing another paycheck in this house. Cera has been helping a lot and giving most of his to help. We need you to get a paying job and help us. I know how much you want to be an actress, but this family needs you." My parents try their hardest to give us a good life, I will be able to pay them back for all the things they have given us.

Hailey puts her fork down and looks like she is ready to explode. She is a real brat sometimes, I wont say anything about my item till Hailey gets the reality check she needs right now. "I don't want to work in some sweaty labor job for the rest of my life! I have dreams to and I want to achieve them!!" I understand what she is saying, but when its time to sacrifice for the ones who took care of you. The ones that sacrificed for you, there needs shouldn't be thrown to the side because its inconvenient for you.

Mom just sighs and looks to dad for help. He takes a hard look at Hailey and it looks like his heart slightly brakes. "Your mother is right Hailey, you had so much time and opportunity to chase your dream. Now that it isn't working we need you to start contributing to this family. Either you start to help us or you move out. We can't afford to pay for 2 non working kids. Cera is helping and Marcus is way to young to get a job." Hailey looks like her world is falling apart. I remember this is when mom and Hailey really started going to war. I think now is a good time to interject and save this from happening again.

I lay down my fork and clear my throat. "May I say something?" My parents look at me and then look at each other. "I promise that it will make this whole topic better." My father sighs and is about to say no, but my mom stops him holding up her hand.

Mom is sitting next to me and dad is across from me with Hailey next to him. Marcus is on my other side. Mom grabs my arm and looks at me. "Go ahead and say what you want to say sweetie." She must think I have something to say, but not expecting that we will be multi-millionaires 2 days from now when the auction house opens and I sell this guild token.

I smile and I take a look at Hailey. She looks at me betrayed, I have always supported her dreams. Now she thinks I am siding with mom and dad. It has been long enough that money caused conflict within our family. "As you know I have a new game and you have a basic knowledge of how the economy works." Mom looks a little disappointed that I am talking about my game, but now it is time that I drop the bomb. "While I was playing I came into a in game item that is very valuable." When I said those words they got everyone's attention except Marcus. "The item I got is worth millions in real world currency. I plan to sell the item in 2 days when the auction house opens up. All the riches and biggest corporations will be betting huge sums of money for it. All of that will go to me, we wont have to worry about making money ever again." My father looks like he is about to throw up. Mom on the other hand is trying and failing to hold tears in.

She grips my hand super hard as heavy tears fall from her eye's. "Are you serious Cera. You will get millions from it...." She is balling right now as she stands up and hugs me while I am still sitting in my chair.

I stand up and my moms feet leave the floor since I am so much taller than her. "We will get millions from it...." She weeps harder when I say those words. I look over to dad as I hug my mom. "You should start looking for a bigger house in a safer neighborhood. Let me know how much debt we have and I'll be sure that you get enough to pay it off." My mom crushes me even more after I said that and I'll admit. She is strong for such a small woman.

As the Adamo family is having a change of life and new happiness coming in just a few days. The church of light is in a crisis. The Pope has called an emergency meeting to enlist any help he can in finding Wilmer. The meeting is open and there is total silence coming from the rulers as they wait for The Pope to start talking about what they already know a little bit about. "I am getting tired of failing in my mission to find and protect him...." The Pope sounds sleep deprived. He was checking all his sources on locating Cera.

The Saintess looks down in shame. They are the church of light, how could they not find a single person. Granted this person is extraordinary and wanting to stay hidden, but that is no excuse in locating a person with their resources. They could find out exactly where a person is with there seers, but the gods in heaven are preventing anything from being seen. "How can we not locate someone who will easily stand out if he shows even an ounce of his power in a public settings!! 2 people know who he is!! One refuses to come out of hiding because they reside in the country ruled by Herold!!! The other is out of our authority of power and cannot be forced here to tell us!!! *SLAM!!!*" The Pope slams the table he is sitting at in anger of the level of incompetence that is being shown.

He shames the name of Pope and his ancestors legacy. Gregory is the first one to speak out at the statement the Pope made. "We are not looking for an ordinary person here. I get how badly the church wants to locate him, but at this point in time we will have to win this war and not kill the person who knows about Arch-Angel Michaels son. With the terms that the church has given us and the deadlock this war is in we can do absolutely nothing in terms of progress." The words that Gregory says is true and everyone knows it.

The Pope releases a giant sigh and rubs his forehead. "I don't blame any of you. This is a shame that I alone bare. Some Pope I am...." Everyone can hear the pain and sadness in his voice. Everyone at this meeting is personal friends with Alexander and know how serious he is about things like this. They can't do anything except wait for the deadlock to lift.

They now have to address something that the system said. To them is was a message from heaven. "I am sure you are all in the loop regarding the news we got some time ago. We are not sure what the legendary item is, but I can tell you all that if you come across anyone with such an item contact us immediately. Such things are special and it will surely be a sign that we have the right person." As The Pope continues to talk, the kingdom of Zenith is trying their hardest now that the church isn't in their country and the surrounding kingdoms are keeping their distance.

As the meeting continues in Ancients world the companies and guilds invested into expanding there profits into players like Cera are having there own type of discussion. This isn't the focus however, the one who is having a serious talk with the director of player privacy is the focus. COO James Raymond, is the one in charge of most things that happen day to day. "I get that the system isn't telling you anything!! I want to know why you have lost control completely regarding this player!!" A heated secret is being talked about right now, but that is a different story for another day.
