Beginning (1)
Caesar? Caesar? Wake up!
------------------------
Uh? What's wrong?
------------------------
It's our last school day in eleventh grade, and you managed to partially still sleep it through, start packing!
------------------------
Already over? Not bad, have you bought a gaming pod?
------------------------
Of course, or it would be embarrassing to even show up to the next school year if you hadn't played the next biggest sensation?
------------------------
Caesar, make sure to show up on my birthday! And Alex, though you aren't much, you are invited as well but don't even dream of driving my new racing bikes.
-----------------------
Do you think I want to drive some ancients? Made by who knows how many centuries back.
-----------------------
What ancients? Even though now everything is electric, some places still make oil-based vehicles.
-----------------------
Hahaha don't worry Chris, I will be there to see, from where you dug them.
-----------------------
Oh, Alex, you will be surprised this time, that will I promise. But did you guys get the pods? Even though we are all rich kids, I heard a lot still didn't get one.
----------------------
Don't worry, this time I got a gaming pod thanks to Caesar's older brothers.
---------------------
How come my brother got your gaming pod?
---------------------
Well, you guys know that I learned karate for a long time, and my gaming skills aren't that bad either.
---------------------
You can stop Alex. I am the best gamer, you expect me to know nothing about the newest upcoming game?
---------------------
Sam, didn't you get crushed yesterday by our class flower?
---------------------
Shut it, Tom, how can I hit a girl.
---------------------
As I was getting tired of listening to my friends, my watch vibrated and signaled a new message in my mailbox. Knowing that it was my brother, I looked it through.
Well, friends, I will see you in the game or Sam's birthday. I will spend my summer at my brother's place.
--------------------
At his guild gaming center?
--------------------
No, Alex, I prefer a bubble pool to relax, massage table, a good cook, how can I lower myself to low-class people.
--------------------
Not bad, Hahaha, well go and enjoy, send me your name in the game.
--------------------
Send me your in-game name as well, and be careful Caesar, New Dawn, is a new world, let your brother get a footing, then play as you like.
--------------------
I know they remind me every day, but thanks, Alex. See you at Sam's party.
--------------------
You as well Caeser, bye Tom and Sam, see you soon
--------------------
Since school has four gates and parking areas, we often go out in different ways. When I reached my car, I drove directly to my brother's place.
After two hours of driving, I arrived at my brother's place. Parking my car, taking my next steps into my brother's mansion, I felt happy. Happy because I know soon the most amazing game ever made will open.
Not many people know this, but the game is using every newest technology.
First, there are specially designed gaming pods for New Dawn. Also, a supercomputer that controls the game. Then I heard from my father, that this game has massive support thanks to the government.
Even my father personally came to talk with my older brothers, to drop other games, and join with their gaming guild force into New Dawn.
He even gave my brother a big check. After that, both shut up and have been getting along with our father even better than ever.
Thanks to the money, my brothers have been very busy, expanding the guild. That's why my friend Sam probably got recruited. Especially since people think New Dawn users with real-life skills are better than regular users.
Getting through the door, I got greeted by the head maid.
--------------------
Welcome back, Caesar, would you like the usual?
--------------------
I nodded and went on.
I like the head maid since she knows what I like and doesn't stick her nose into the wrong things. Sometimes others make my life complicated and mad.
I would have fired them already and found better ones, but my brothers don't care, and it's not my house. My father promised me my mansion when I finished high school. Still, a year to go, so that got to wait, but when the time comes, I will be taking the head maid with me. Such a skilled person doesn't belong to such a boor place.
Taking a short cut, while passing through a large living room, I saw both my brother's talking with guests.
I didn't bother with them since I know they are some new fools, that my brothers want in their guild.
After getting through the living, I went up through the nearest staircase close to my room.
Opening my room with a keycard, the first thing I searched for is a gaming pod. Thankfully the head maid knew me best, so she put a gaming pod next to the wall near the bathroom and bed.
She is the only person besides me with a keycard to this room as well. I was the one who let the keycard lock put here.
Mostly to keep out unskilled workers and for peace.
Looking over with my eyes at the gaming pod, I took a calming breath and went to the balcony.
On the balcony, I sat behind the table and took the gaming pod manual to read it through, mostly skipping, but I still read it through.
When the head maid arrived, bringing my food and drink that I had been expecting, she took the manual with her. I know that she will but in on the bed table, because of that I wasn't worried.
I am planning to re-read it before sleep. Not that I am a fan of manuals. But it will help me calm my heart, before tomorrow, and maybe help me feel more confident about tomorrow.
Eating my lunch and watching the sea, I wished New Dawn to be exceptional. Because I always feel bored, that's why I hope I will not be disappointed. At the same time, I try not to expect much.
I can only sigh and hope for the best.
