"huh"
Exclaimed mark silently as his older brother was still busy cooking he took his phone from the pocket.
And looked at the content on his phone after turning it on and saw his friend. His classmate who was complaining at the guild master who was literally reckless and though the guild master is the strongest player in the guild he was also reckless and he has a beautiful and smart vice guild leader, she In charge of internal management of the guild while mark was in charge for finance report, he only needed to calculate how much is the spending of every person in the guild and the budget. though, he's already used to it but today's defeated gave a huge tremor to the guild and suffered losses mark already thinking 'how will i calculate it this time?maybe this time we will go down from 5th rank guild to 7th rank if not lower than 10th well if many guild member will quit and join the other guild it might lessen my burden' complained mark as he massaged his temple as though he got an headache then he chatted with his friend with a nickname 'rad1-ate'. Mark was furiously typing on his phone.
"yup, it never happen before. The reckless guild master is giving me an headache. Iknew it the moment he got killed by a the weakest god because of using His self proud newly created crap skill! not only that he even station me in the back. He hate me For a reason? I already told him in the guilds forum in one of his post now we only has one chance"
"but why do you want to be on the front of the expedition i didn't even want to be on the 2nd legion cause i might die early without gain and i might loss my equipment you know. The game penalty in death is dropping your equipment and needed a week before getting online?"
" i'm not like a coward like you, i won't let myself die and wait for another week to play adventure mode again. I might be able to obtain that spear of jugdement if i was in the front now those wolves in the guild obtain it first after defeating the mid ranked god carrion. Your already at level 145 yet you got defeated by a mid tier angel? aren't they as strong as the low tier archdevil in the valley of the fallen in the galdia continent? Such shame brought upon yourself. I could just kill it in 2 strikes though"
"Who said im a coward? I might have killed it if I'm not in rush picking a suitable weapon to take for the expedition... You know what forget it, it's really my bad picking up mid-Silver ranked sword instead of high-gold ranked ones i was just trying it on who know our idiotic guild master started the conquest when all our guildmates was present i didn't even manage to change my weapons. Once we arrived at the plane, we won't be able to changed our equipment. We could only use the dimensional bags to take out healing potions and stuff. Too bad the previous patch has forbid weapons to be stored in the bags but will have to be put in the storage window fortunately the patch includes autopick at will but only works for equipable items i also try out the cool armor i got last time in the previous plane conquest i don't really regret losing them since they're low rank anyway... Nevermind why not let's play conquest mode, we might get lucky finding a rare things from gacha"
"sure, it's not like i play adventure mode often."
As they chat, mickael was done cooking. A slightly loud thud, though the food or the pot wasn't heavy mickael intentional put it in the table hard so that the two will give him there attention. And gain focus on the meal, mark quickly typed.
"ok zeldrin lets chat at school later"
"sure.. Later"
Mark turn off his phone. It was a phone from the old technology. Unlike his sister which like a hologram like watch which is the latest gadget she rarely used her phone though both them excluding brother got the phone as a present in their birthday. Though it's already an out-to-date phone that was already replaced with high-tech gadgets its still usable and their functions was slightly enhanced, it was still no different than the mobile phones in modern era, mark treasured it as it was the last gift his parent gave him. He uses it daily while taking care if theirs something wrong with it. He recieved two gift on his birthday when his parent was still alive. The phone and a pendant that has a strange ball with weird engraving on it somehow feels like it has unknown origin. It was small and fitted as a necklace, mark wears it everyday even when sleeping. He treated it like a lucky charm. There were some rune carvings in it but it was to small that even mark didn't bother learning them. He sometimes take it with him either entering the capsule to play some games or in the bath in order to not lose it.
"Eat up"
His brother says, as he distribute the plate and spoons, when mickael was away from home for work And his sister is the one who cooks and mark mainly help in the household chores while eating. Mickael ask mina about how school was.
"Brother im alright, in the school i even got A+ from my teacher i'm also working hard for my grades unlike mark who got B" says as she smile with a mock. Although it was clearly hidden mark knew that smile on her face.
'How annoying... ' mark thought.
"well you did a good job" mickael said while patting mina's head. It wasn't really a big table and his arm are just reachable to them. But even if it's not a big chair, delicacies can still be put there and fit in.
He looked at mark on the with concerned face.
"Mark how did your grade fall again? It was clearly B+ last week and A the other month have you been studying well or perhaps you been immerse to playing vr games?"
Mark look at his brother as glared at mina, he replied.
"don't worry brother, i'm also working hard on my grades. My math didn't even drop a grade yet it was only science as it getting complicated throughout the years but I'll work hard to study them" he smiled at his brother showing a face of everythings fine. mickael asked mina,
"mina did he told me the truth?"
