Temporal Pearls

Chapter 28: Seth Plan

Enoch's family sat as they watched the news. It has be one week since the incidt. The news anchor was having a guest from the International Investigation Bureau (IIB).

They were known to investigate Global Incidts and make sure justice was served.

"Please welcome Andrews Eagles! He is a well-known reporter and a journalist that works with IIB. And he has graced us many times with news that shook us to the core. And today we invite him to commt and elaborate about the global incidts of the newly hyped Game Asteroids Online!"

"Mr Eagles, what can you say about the incidt!" The anchor asked.

"Well, let me clarify something. What the world knows about Marathon Bolt Industry as the creator of Asteroids online is not true. I mean, they are the ones but it's a collaboration." He clarified himself and continued,

"VR Tech was hatched by Bolt Company. Th, it was only used by Space Explorers. You know, it gets lonely out there but in VR, they felt as if at home! But later Bolt Company sold the tech to various companies for Billions of Union. That was wh the VR Game competition showed up. And as time wt on, these companies managed to achieve breakthroughs and improved the VR Tech."

"Later on, Bolt Company wanted to buy the improvemts and that gave rise to a lot of skirmishes. In the d, most of these companies merged and gave birth to Marathon Bolt Industry."

"By combining their resources, they brought Asteroids Online to the table as the Ultimate Game. Just its inception alone made other game companies fall. By these, you may recognize where problems arise." He drank some water before he continued!

"Companies that did not join Marathon Bolt couldn't produce anything as good as Asteroid Online. So, many decided to join. But, there are others known as Rebels. They decided to hijack the game many times with failures, until now."

"By successfully infiltrating Asteroids Online's core company and targeting the VR Cabin to cause ough disaster that will force the Game to shut down. All along, some that joined Marathon Bolt were working with the hostile group and that was how they got access to it."

"But people should feel at ease. The issue has be tak care of by the world powers and they are trying to solve the problem. It's true, we are considering shutting the Game down forever. Anything that will danger our people is not welcomed!"

Andrew Eagle explained.

"He is just narrating. It's a speech he has already prepared." Adamina commted.

"Yes, those agts don't speak for themselves. They are intelligce officers, so every word is officially licsed!" Joseph added.

Seth was sitting on an electric wheelchair giv by the Game Company for his accidt.

He has recovered to the point of doing some stuff but he still can't walk, so he uses the Electric wheelchair.

Sarah has made it known that he will never dive into the game ever again, and no one opposed her.

"Yes. Mam, I wanted you to check this out!" Seth said.

Sarah sat beside him and collected the book that Seth handed to her.

"It's a business plan about a little industry."

"What kind of industry!" She asked as she began to check the book.

"Arts. A great artist prepared his material. The plan includes all the things I might need!"

Sarah sighed as she saw the exorbitant fund needed.

Among the plans was to establish a farm. Both animals and plants will be raised. He researched well that some important colour ingredits are from certain plants and animal extracts.

Nanncy did say she has a farm that mostly comprises Floating lilies, Bewilders Cyn Rose, and Camalin light. They are all used to prepare colours.

Seth wanted to prepare all these kinds of additives and practice to become a Guine World Artist. Since he has the Talts he better use them to their core.

"We need to involve your sister. This amount can only be plucked by her!"

To bring in Anna and make her give him that money, Seth prepared something grand.

A painting of her!

Later in the eving, Seth dragged Anna to his Art room.

"Anna, I have something to show you! Please, pull that cloth!" Seth pointed at a cloth, covering a board as tall as a human.

"What is it? Your prank?" But seeing their mother by her side, she thought otherwise. Anna grabbed the cloth and yanked it away—but th she jumped back with a shout and a terrifying expression.

Both Seth and Sarah were surprised by her reaction. She should be surprised but not terrified.

"She is terrified of her in-game character... Ma, I think she has a trauma!" Seth said to his mother!
