The Birthday Party

A few days later.

A virtual pod's covering lid slowly opened, with smoke billowing out.

The smoke slowly dissipated into the room, revealing a figure lying inside the pod.

Adam slowly opened his eyes, then sat up and climbed out of the pod. He had to take a moment to stabilize himself; otherwise, he would've fallen.

"Oh, god, what a headache…" Adam touched his head.

It felt like a hammer was knocking him on the head.

After departing from Kuro Island, the ship took them to the mainland, where they rented an inn in the Driftwood. They planned to take a wagon to take them to Dawnwatch tomorrow.

Thus, he planned to now take a day to rest in the real world and catch up with news and his family.

"Hera," Adam said.

[Yes?]

The feminine robotic voice responded.

"Has my family arrived yet?"

[They have, but they are currently about to leave]

"Why?" Adam asked.
