Chapter 34: Bedroom Selected...
'Thank God! We did not encounter any more problems along the way!' Carlos had a relieved look as they arrive in front of KBR-206. He placed his hand on a blue glowing glass beside the door and it opened.
They walked in the room as Pedro inspect it if it something that would suit him. The room looked like a fully furnished apartment. Upon entry, to the right was the bathroom and laundry area. The left side was the master's bedroom. After the Bathroom and laundry area, a small kitchen area and the living room was located. While after the Bedroom is a multipurpose room. The multipurpose room is a place where they can cultivate or practice their skills and abilities, or it is where special rooms like the forging or potion making area can be located.
The overall size of the whole KBR-206 was around forty-nine square meters.
When Pedro entered the "master's bedroom", there was no bed inside.
"Is this really the master's bedroom?" Pedro asked casually.
"Yes, it is!" Carlos who was standing near the door of the master's bedroom nodded.
"Why is there no bed?" Pedro pointed to the empty room as Carlos peeked slightly in.
"This... I'll contact room management! please wait here!" Carlos went in front of a golden pipe in one corner of the living room to contact the room management who were in charge of maintaining unoccupied rooms in the ship.
"Senior! No need! Let's just check another room!" Carlos had a bit of hesitation but he nodded in agreement. He thought that bringing more personnel might cause another unnecessary event.
They went and check room KBR-207 which was just across KBR-206. Seeing that the room was of complete basic facilities, Pedro decided to take the room.
"I'm fine with this room, Senior!" Pedro smiled as he sat to the small sofa in the living room.
"Well then, I shall leave now!" Carlos was determined to part ways to Pedro. It was just a small amount of time that they had been together but he had already been involved in trouble. Hence, he wanted to part with Pedro as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble.
"Wait, Senior! I thought you were free after the match?" Pedro planned to gather more information from Carlos after the rank match. This is the reason why he asked Carlos if he was available after the match.
"Yes, I am free! However, I lost all of my energy because of recent events. So, I need to take a rest for now!" Carlos bluffed his way. 'I certainly must not stay around him any longer!'
"If that's the case, I won't trouble Senior any more! Thanks for your help!" Pedro had a sour face inwardly. 'I won't force Senior Carlos further! Unexpected events had happened one after another! I don't want to trigger another!'
Carlos left the room. Pedro checked the time in his Interface and saw that it was past 11:00 in the evening already! He decided to log out of the game and wake up early.
The closed beta launch of the game opened at exactly 12 in the midnight in 'real-world time'. When he entered the game and was teleported to Kagat Village the sun was already up. The 'in-game time' was past 9:00 in the morning. If it is past 11:00 in the evening already, Pedro had already spent was around 7 hours of 'real-world time' playing Bearth! (1 hour, in reality, was equal to 2 hours in Bearth)
Hence, It was around 7 in the morning already in reality. At this point in time, Pedro was still in his second year in college and was taking up Electronics Engineering in one of the best Universities in the Philippines.
Classes in these days can be attended online, via live stream. Hence, going to the University to attend class was just an option. Students were only required to go to school on major exam days or when in need of actual presentation of reports or such. The only advantage he may get if he attended the class at the University is that it was convenient to ask questions directly to his professor.
Today, He had a class at 7:30 in the morning. Being tired of getting into trouble in-game, Pedro decided to log out early so he could relax and eat breakfast with his family. He needed also to remind his father about his proposal.
The proposal he made to his father was for the company to do whatever it takes to be able to partner with the VR Box maker company. Closed beta had only a small amount of players, hence there were only a thousand of the VR boxes that were sold or produced. One of its main problems, currently was that it takes too much power to generate. Hence, It would be a perfect business opportunity for them if they would be able to partner with the VR Box maker company. It was a new technology. Although risky, Once it was successful, their company would earn millions of revenue.
Ather having breakfast, he took a quick bath. He decided earlier to just attend the class online since he had already attended the class at the university in his past life. It was just some sort of refresher for him at the same time it would show ease to his parents that he is not 'wasting' his life.
After his class, there was a notification that they needed to somehow go to school tomorrow for some sort of important university announcement. It was stated that it was not mandatory but it was of that importance. He tried to recall this in his past life but he can't remember any significant events like this in his past life.
At first, he decided not to go, but he, later on, decided to go since he would be taking classes online most of the time now instead of going to the university personally. This will save him time from the traveling which he can use to train his body. Although his real-life body was stronger than his current body in-game, this was only because he is only level 1!
Once, he increased his level, there would be a point where his in-game body would be stronger than his real-life body. If his in-game body was stronger than his real-life body, his maximum capability in real-life would be the only thing he could utilize, wasting the remaining strength he could have used in-game.
This made him decide to also focus on training physically in reality. After the class, It was already lunch, so he had eaten lunch. He rested for a bit, then he started his physical training in the afternoon.
"Dad is heading home late today!" Pedro waited for his father to return home and ask him about the results of his proposal.
