Legacy Of The Betelgeuse

Chapter 134 - Episode 134: D-Day.



Chapter 134 – Episode 134: D-Day.

We are currently resting and eating our lunch in the dining room. Today is the last day before the invasion, and we all have prepared everything. Everyone is a bit quiet compared to the usual, especially Ivonna. She's barely touching her food and only playing with her fork. She's staring at the food but she's dazing right now. Grisell is always on her phone reading whatever is on the forum. Emma and Francesca are eating their food but it seems that they both have no appetite while the rest are eating the food normally.

I believe this is the effect of the ambient and the atmosphere of the game. Becker did say to me that kind of effect may affect people in real life, like losing appetite and being absent-minded, but they should be fine after it's ended. I'm the only one who doesn't get affected by it because I'm already used to it.

I stand up and walk toward Emma. I massage her back and she suddenly starts moaning and everyone is startled and immediately looks at Emma weirdly. She moans a lot but I guess I'm already used to her moaning, but not them.. The room atmosphere suddenly becomes awkward. Emma covers her mouth with both of her hands. Francesca snorts and everyone starts chuckling.

I smile and look at them while keep massaging Emma's shoulders.

"It seems that everyone is mentally exhausted, what about we get a nice, long, and relaxing massage? I know a place that can make us feel a lot better. Are you guys interested?"

Chelsea is looking at me with a slight smile. Michael stretches his arms and groans.

"Man, I'm down for that. My whole body is stiff for no reason for the past few days."

Everyone is humming and nodding in agreement. I smile and clap my hand.

"Perfect! Let's go then! Oh, but we need another car, huh? I'll order a car for us, give me a minute."

I grab my phone but then Ernes is knocking on the door. We all looking at him. Ernes is looking at me.

"Sir, there are packages for you outside."

I tilt my head.

"Packages? But I didn't order anything. Well, you can bring them here."

Ernes smiles.

"I don't think I can't bring the packages inside, Sir. You might remember after seeing the packages."

Everyone is looking at me and then I'm on my way outside with Ernes. I hear a loud engine on the outside like a big truck or container truck or something similar. I'm too busy opening an app on my phone and trying to find the mansion's location on the map.

Ernes is opening the door for me.

"These are the packages, Sir."

I take a glimpse and then look at them again. My mouth and eyes are wide open. I look at Ernes and he's just smiling at me. A guy with a fancy suit is walking towards me with a big smile on his face while holding a box and a form.

He smiles and gives me the form while pointing at the blank spaces for my signature.

"Please sign over here and here. Mister Trevor."

I look at him and pointing at the packages.

"Wait, I thought it's going to take months until they're ready?"

He smiles.

"One of our loyal customers is insisting on making and delivering the packages a bit faster to you, Mister Trevor."

  I squint my eyes.

"Mister Sylvester did it?"

He smiles and just lifts his hand.

I write my signature and give him the form back. Then he gives me the two boxes and puts his hand on his chest while nodding.

"Thank you for your purchases, and welcome to the family, Mister Trevor."

The guy is leaving and the two trucks are leaving as well. Those two hypercars that I ordered are now parked at the front of the mansion. I sit on the entrance doorsteps and look at those cars with disbelief.

Ernes is sitting next to me and looks at the cars while nodding.

"You really have a nice taste in cars, Sir."

I exhale deeply and look at Ernes. I tilt my head and show one of the car keys.

"Want to go on a ride with me later, Ernes? Maybe have champagne and eat super expensive lobster in a 5 stars restaurant?"

Ernes shakes his head.

"I'm too old for this, Sir. There are so many beautiful ladies inside the mansion that you can invite to those events."

I shrug and look at him.

"Hey, the older you get the better you will be. Like a wine."

Ernes chuckles and shakes his head. He stands up and bows.

"Will you excuse me. I still have another important thing to do, Sir.  "

I nod and then Ernes enters the mansion, but then so many footsteps are coming toward the entrance from inside the mansion. As soon as they see the cars everyone is gasping. Michael is freaking out and jumping like a monkey while the rest of them are just covering their mouths.

Emma is looking at me.

"Trev?! Who are cars are those?!"

I walk toward one of the cars use the key to unlock the car and sit on the driver seat. I start the engine and everyone is looking at me with disbelief. I open the car window and look at them.

"Sadly this car only has two seats. So, who wants to drive with me?"

Francesca looks at Chelsea.

"You were his date a few days ago, go ahead."

Chelsea is looking at Ivonna. Ivonna chuckles.

"Why are you looking at me? Go ahead."

Chelsea is grinning happily and runs toward the car and sits next to me. She's amazed by the interior of the car and looks back at the massive engine that we can see from the back of the car window. I hit the gas and the sound of the engine is f*cking amazing.

Everyone is still looking at the car. I look at Emma and pointing at the other hypercar.

"Em, you want to test drive that car?"

Emma shakes her head.

"Hell no! I don't want to crash it! I will stick with the van."

I smile and nod.

"Let's go. I will send you the location and you lead the way, Em."

We are on our way to the spa that the celebrity spend their free time every weekend and I know if there are so many celebrities went there, that means that place is very good.

Chelsea is looking at me with curiosity.

"Trevor, where did you get the money to buy this car. This thing must be worth millions of dollars, right? Not to mention you bought two! How much money do you have?!"

I just smile.

"I have enough."

We arrived at the spa and I immediately booked ten rooms for all of us. The service was amazing and after the massage, I felt so relaxed and I fell asleep during the massage. After that, I took a nice milk bath that I have no idea why they used milk, but it felt a bit weird but still nice. When we were all done, I looked at the time and it's already 6 P.M. We went to a restaurant to have dinner together. After that, we all went back to the mansion and went to sleep because tomorrow morning will be the beginning of the invasion.

We all wake early in the morning and we eat some snacks and drink coffee before we log in to the game. After everyone is ready to play, we all log in to the game.

I'm writing a new list of names that need to be evacuated. I couldn't remember the NPCs that are playing an important role more than what I gave to Jariel, so I asked Sev for help and she gave me the rest of the names that are important in the future. Without her help, we are going to lose a lot of assets and precious quests that can help all the players in the future.

I'm back at the pub. There's nobody in here, and so I go to the basement immediately to give a new list to Jariel. He looks at it and nods. He says that all his men are already in the position and ready to evacuate them when the time comes. Avriel is also already in the Alliance Kingdom with the bartender and other NPCs.

Jariel looks at me and nods up.

"It seems that this phenomenon is more serious compared to when they were battling Krestan. Do you know what is going to happen to us?"

I look at him so seriously.

"One thing that I can say is. If we don't survive this, everything that breathes in Orion will be dead."

Jariel is looking at me and nods.

"I see. That bad, huh?"

Jariel puts the cloak on his chair and grabs daggers on the walls.

"We should leave now."

I nod.

"Yes."

We both leave the pub and use the teleportation device. I go to the Eynhildr Kingdom and meet with everyone else. The statue is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of players. I walk past them and approach Ivonna and the others. We all are staring at the space and the ambient is so loud, the weather is so cold that it piece into our bones.

Ivonna is taking a deep breath and exhales deeply uncomfortably.

"Can we make it?"

I tilt my head and exhale deeply.

"I have no clue. But, let's do our best as always, yeah?"

Ivonna looks at me and nods.

"We have prepared everything that we could and we thought of. But for some reason, I feel like it's not enough."

I look at the glitched notification in the sky.

"You will be fine."

I look at everyone and nod.

"We are all going to be fine."

Everyone looks at me and nods.

[0 days, 0 hours, 48 minutes until the invasion begins.]
