Chapter 57 – Episode 57: Celebration Event.

I'm inside the bar waiting for Ivonna. The event is not yet started, it will be live in an hour. The bartender approaches me and gives me a drink. I tilt my head and he's tilting his head at the hatch.

"She's back?"

He raises his eyebrows.

"Yes. If you want to see her, she's there with our master."

I nod with understanding. I check my friend list and Ivonna is still offline. I walk toward the hatch and get inside. I have time to talk with Avriel before Ivonna comes online.. I can hear Avriel and Jariel talking. As soon as they hear my footsteps, they both stop talking. Avriel takes a peek and she smiles when she sees me.

"Long time no see."

I smile and nod.

"Yeah, long time no see. Do you miss me?"

Avriel is squinting her eyes and smirks. I approach them and Jariel's expression is a bit sour.

"What with the long face, Jariel?"

Jariel looks at me and sighs.

"You. It's because of you."

I know what is he talking about. It must be about Krestan. He sits down and massaging his eyebrows.

"What did you do to Krestan? He looks like someone who just lost the will to live."

Avriel is smiling while looking at me. I tilt my head.

"I had some business to take care of with him. Don't worry, I'm not going to kill him."

Jariel is glaring at me and rolls his eyes.

"Thanks to you, Krestan will not join our fight. Without him, it will be hard to proceed with the plan."

I scoff and sit in front of him. I know this will happen and that's why I didn't give Krestan Diadre's pinky fingers. I grab those from my inventory and give them to Jariel. He looks at it with confusion.

"Who's fingers are these?"

I look at Avriel and she's shaking her head while smiling. I look at Jariel.

"That's Diadre's fingers. Give those to Krestan and I'm sure that Krestan will reconsider his decision. Tell him that Diadre and Ardalec will not be able to fight anymore. I knew this will happen, so I'm taking a precautionary measure."

Jariel grabs the fingers and looks at them. He's humming.

"We haven't told him about Diadre and Ardalec. So this might work… no, this will work."

Jariel shakes his head and scoffs.

"You defeated Diadre and Ardalec on your own. Then you also defeated Krestan. I wonder if I should be happy or afraid."

I shrug and smile.

"It depends on how you treat me."

Jariel smiles and turns his head while scoffing. I look at Avriel.

"Can I talk with you?"

Jariel is looking at me from the corner of his eyes. Avriel smiles and nods.

"Let's talk somewhere else."

I nod and then we both leave.

We are outside Fjel town and I turn around to look at Avriel. She's looking at me under the hooded robe. I look at the distance.

"Can I ask you a favor?"

Avriel nods. I look at her and continue.

"I need you to observe Krestan's movements because I believe he will make a move later in the future since he has all his limbs back. I know that it's against your father's plan, but Krestan is Krestan, and I don't like it."

Avriel smirks.

"Just observing him? I can kill him if you asked me to."

I scoff and shake my head.

"No. That's unnecessary for now. If you do that, your father will be furious."

Avriel is looking at the distance and then looks at me.

"Although I'm my father's daughter, that does not mean I have to accept and follow all of his decisions and orders. My father is my father, and I is me. I despise Krestan to the core so I do what I want to do, and if your interest is the same with mine, then I will gladly accept your favor."

I nod.

"Thank you."

Avriel smirks. I look at her.

"Is there anything you need? I feel like I should give you something in return."

Avriel shakes her head.

"I owe you my life. You don't have to give me anything. Maybe I will need your help later someday. When that time comes, I want you to save me again like back then."

I smile and nod. Then Avriel leaves to observe Krestan.

I look at my friend list and Ivonna is online. I message her.

[Are you ready?]

[Yes, I'm on my way to Fjel town. Let's meet up at the place when we met back then.]

[Alright, I'll be waiting for you there.]

I sit down on a chair and then I see Ivonna on her own walking towards me wearing the full plate armor and a shield attached on the back. She smiles and waves at me, I smile and wave back to her. She sits down in front of me and looks around.

"You waited long?"

I nod.

"No, I just got here myself."

Ivonna is humming with understanding.

"I heard from Grisell that you have met with each other. She also said she's making a scythe for you, how come?"

I smirk and nod.

"Yeah, I met her when left the roundtable room after I logged in. I gave her some materials for forging to her, and she was excited, and then she wanted to make me a weapon as a thank you gift. Getting a weapon from Rank 1 forger, who doesn't want that."

Ivonna chuckles and nods. I grab the Adamantine Exoskeletons from my inventory and give them to Ivonna. She looks at me with confusion.

"What are these?"

I tilt my head.

"These are the drops I got from killing the Boss Ulaggin and Uragin. These materials can only be used for making heavy armor and shield. You can have these, I don't need them. Grisell will be thrilled when you show them to her."

Ivonna grabs one of the exoskeletons. She's surprised and looks at me.

"This is Adamantine?! These things worth $2000 each. I can't have these, at least not for free. I'll buy it."

I smirk and chuckle.

"Sure, you can pay me whenever you want."

Ivonna shakes her head.

"No, I'll pay for it now. Give me your bank account number."

I scoff and give her my account number. She opens a tab and transfers $12.000 to my bank account. She grabs the exoskeletons and puts them in her inventory. She asks me about the boss and how did I defeat them. I explain to her about the boss' skills and how to defeat them. Ivonna nods and writes it down.

[Voice of the World]

[The One Billion Players celebration event is now live!

The event tab is now available to every player. The command to open the event tab is by saying "Celebration Event". EXP and Drop Rate are now doubled! Have fun, and may the Betelgeuse bless you!]

We both are looking at the VoW. Ivonna and I open the event tab. We both are standing side by side and looking at our own screen.

[Event Tab]

[Today's event is Hide and Seek! Find these NPCs in the Orion. They could be anywhere. In the forest, villages, towns, cities, mountains, and beaches. Here are the pictures of the NPCs that you need to find.

1. [Picture]

2. [Picture]

3. [Picture]

You have 48 days in-game time to find them. Each of them will give you one random reward when you found them. Here is the rewards list.

1. [Optional High-Quality Weapon Box] (Tradeable)

2. [Random Armor Series Box] (Tradeable)

3. [Random Accessory Series Box] (Tradeable)

The first three players to find those NPCs will be given the winners rewards at the end of the Celebration Event on Sunday 9th.]

[Exchange Event.]

[For the next two weeks, all the monsters will drop [Betelgeuse's Coin] (BC) with a 30% chance (Included Double Drop Rate). [Betelgeuse's Coin] will be inside your inventory automatically when obtained, so you do not have to collect them to prevent PK and Abuse. The NPCs are in every city, town, and village. The NPCs are wearing a black cape and black silk top hat. You can find them in the center of the village, town, and city.]

Ivonna and I are looking at each other and then nod. We immediately go to the center of Fjel town.

We see so many players are crowding an NPC. We can see the NPC for the exchange event that is described in the Event Tab. We both walk through the crowds. The NPC looks at us.

"Welcome! I will take your Betelgeuse's Coin for every item that I have over here. Here are the items that I offer!

1. [Health Potion (S)] (10 BC ea)

2. [Stamina Potion (S)] (5 BC ea)

3. [Celebration Food (U)] (50 BC ea)

4. [Celebration Drink (U)] (30 BC ea)

5. [10 Gold Coin Bag] (100 BC ea)

6. [100.000 EXP Scroll] (500 BC ea)

7. [High-Quality Forging Weapon Materials Box] (300 BC ea)

8. [High Quality Forging Armor Materials Box] (300 BC ea)

9. [High Quality Forging Accessory Materials Box] (300 BC ea)

10. [Optional High Quality Weapon Box] (1000 BC ea)

11. [Random Armor Series Box] (1000 BC ea)

12. [Random Accessory Series Box] (1000 BC ea)

13. [Optional Unique Costume Box] (3000 BC ea)

The last item I can offer you is [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] (10.000 BC ea) Cannot be traded, market, dropped, and sold. You will need 10 [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] to make 1 [Betelgeuse Legacy Box]! But remember, the [Betelgeuse's Legacy Shard] will be expired and removed from your inventory when the event ended!

So, come to me with all your Betelgeuse's Coin and I will trade your BC for all these items! Oh, and one more thing. You cannot trade or drop Betelgeuse's Coin! You can only get that by killing monsters! So good luck!"

Ivonna and I are looking at each other and we both smile. Then we leave the crowded area and look around. Ivonna takes a deep breath.

"Let's farm Betelgeuse's Coin, Shall we?"

I smirk and nod.

"We shall."
