Lance was always obedient, so when he asked his parents if he could play the game a few more hours, it was a rather rare request.
His parents, who were easygoing, agreed to his request.
Regrettably, he couldn't complete the mission tonight.
Lance's parents had agreed, but Lincoln did not.
Previously, he had been saved by the white-bearded old man, Pavel Vaclavsky, and was brought to the real old Dad—Old Daddy Cross's residence.
Lance found that this house was just a train track away from the house where the game started—the house where the main character had always lived.
The old Dad had always lived near his son, but he never appeared just to keep his son away from the disputes.
Listening to the old man with the white beard telling him how much his old Dad cares about him, willing to protect him with his life, every attack he thought he had encountered was actually to save him from the control of the alliance.
