My eyes became wide open. My phone was ringing in a few second intervals.
Rolling to the side of the bed I grabbed my phone and quickly looked at its screen.
Hundreds of notifications about the game's update flooded the media. Almost every single news was related to the currency exchange.
Yawning, I stood up and scratched my back. I was still sleepy...
Wanting to fully awaken I chose to take a cold shower.
Sure enough, even being near the cold water gave me slight goosebumps.
After cleaning myself I descended down the stairs only to see a note written by parents stating that they've already left for work. They also mentioned that there's two fried eggs in the fridge.
Reading the note I almost teared up. How loving can they be?
Eating breakfast with the smile I was already on my phone, looking for affordable houses on sale.
One of the houses that caught my eyes was a fifteen minutes drive by car.
Problem is we don't have a car. Well I can just catch a taxi.
The other house I found was approximately 80 miles away and was inside a rich people district. Even though it would take most of the money I had it wouldn't be comparable to the other houses.
Looking through the pictures of the house I thought that it looked more than a palace. Huge rooms, multiple bathrooms, even a swimming pool, everything was included.
Even though it looked perfect the most important thing was security. The house had high fences with electricity running through them, the district was always patrolled by police, to even enter the district one needs to have a document allowing one to trespass or proving that one is living here.
Creating an appointment to check out the house I turned off my phone and quickly ran to my room. I was in need to sell some of my items, quickly!
Jumping in my VR pod I put on my head gear and soon lost consciousness transferring into the game.
My eyes opened allowing me to see treetops of the dark forest trees. Something sticky was covering my face. Trying to brush it off I felt something hot brush past my cheek.
Momentarily paralyzed I somehow managed to push away the ruthless creature and wiped my face.
I was completely covered in saliva.
Apparently my trustworthy wolf decided to drown me. Washing my face in the nearby lake I glared at Fenrir who had his puppy eyes directed at me. Even though he acted cute I noticed a smirk playing on his lips.
Gnashing my teeth I transferred my words to my familiar.
' No cooked meat today '
I almost let out a giggle seeing Fenrir's eyes lose glow and his constantly moving tail stop in place.
His act completely dropped. I saw him genuinely cry in agony. I felt bad and almost wanted to forgive him for his sins, but held myself back.
' I need to teach him '
Strengthening my resolve I gestured Fenrir to follow me and ran towards the City. Even unsatisfied, my pet followed me with the intention to somehow make up for his mistake.
First thing I did was make plans for a truck to come to our old house and help us transfer our stuff.
Making sure that everything is set, I also thought about buying a car. I've always wanted a cool car that I could drive at fast speeds, but our financial situation didn't allow it.
Funnily enough, now that I had some wealth I wasn't that attracted towards buying a ton of expensive things in one day. I felt that it would be unwise.
I was stingy with my money. They were hard earned after all.
In the end I settled with not buying a car right now. Catching a taxi I drove to the nearest furniture shop deciding to decorate the house a bit...
