The shop was half empty. It was a workday after all.
Quickly walking through the endless lines of various chairs, sofas, TVs and other furniture I immediately knew what I wanted.
Calling an employee I quickly gave him a list of the items I'll buy and paid for a team that'll install all the items.
Seeing the sum I had a feeling that I'll tear up, it was a bot too much money.
Catching a taxi I drove back home ordering some food for my parents. Since I've already eaten I wasn't hungry.
Entering my old home I put my hand on its rusty metal door and smiled.
' I'm so glad, I'm not gonna see you again '
Taking off the shoes I heard my parents conversing in the living room.
With a smile I greeted them and unknowingly a tear escaped from my eye. Unfortunately it didn't slip past my parents' perception.
" Leo, What happened!? "
My mother almost yelled running towards me hugging me with her frail hands.
My father also didn't miss a second and walked up to me patting my head, even though without any words.
Now tears were streaming down my eyes like a fountain and with my crooked voice I couldn't even say a sentence.
" I.. l... ove you "
My emotions were loose. My face was all covered in tears, but a joyous smile was glued to it.
" We love you too~ "
My mother spoke with a smirk gesturing my dad to take a photo.
I couldn't believe it... From a person seemingly crying his eyes out I turned into the most serious being in a second. No proof of me crying was left except for my mother's slightly wet t-shirt.
Warily eyeing my mother with my now winter cold eyes I tried to freeze her in place receiving another set of giggles from my parents.
Now with all jokes out of the pocket I gestured for my parents to sit down. It was time to be serious.
With a questioning gaze my parents proceeded to sit on a nearby sofa.
What followed next was a thorough explanation of how I know about the loan, how the game I've played became worldwide and how I've earned enough money to buy a house.
During my explanation my mother's mouth was wide open. My father wasn't any different with his eyes wide open he looked at me as if I'm an alien.
Even after I explained everything they were still speechless.
" Mom? Dad ? " freewebnov(e)l.com
I spoke seeing them spaced out. With my words they woke up from the stupor. First thing that came out of my mother's mouth was...
" How? "
Facepalming I once again retold the story of how I earned the money earning a stupid smile from my mother and a proud look from my dad.
" I've already paid for the house and repaid the loan. Tomorrow there will be some things arriving at our new home and also a truck will come to help us move some of our stuff to the new house "
After that I spent a few hours talking to my parents. After making sure that everything is alright they retired to the bed early with smiles painted across their faces.
I've already told them that they are free not to work and I'll be able to pay for everything.
I was also in need of a better item to hide my face and horns. My robe's durability was running low and my demonic horns were slightly protruding from the hood.
I already had an idea of what I needed.
Shadow Cloak - a Cloak made by a dwarven master blacksmith.
Dwarven blacksmiths are usually divided into tiers from Beginner to Grandmaster. In my previous life there were myths of another rank being above the Grandmaster, but I brushed it off as a myth.
Even if there was such a rank, what could a person with this rank craft?
An item with a tier above diamond?
Remembering my previous life I snickered at this joke and brushed my teeth before entering the VR pod.
This time I felt no saliva on my face. Looking around I noticed Fenrir lying near my legs seemingly asking for something.
Throwing him a piece of cooked pork I watched as he swallowed it without even chewing. Well it was expected since the wolf was my height.
Feeling some glares towards me I noticed many players eyeing me and Fenrir with different gazes.
Greed... Curiosity... Awe... Recognition?
Shit...
I quickly ran towards the forest as papparazis started chasing after me. Apparently the World announcement snitched about how my pet looks and other relevant things that would give my identity away.
Cursing my carelessness I entered the forest leaving a message for all the following people.
" Whoever follows me will die! "
Most of the people halted their steps, but some dare devils didn't care and ran after me.
Of course I was bluffing even though I was very powerful. I couldn't take on at least a hundred players, yet...
Looking at my companion I made up my mind.
' I need to up my Relationship with him'
I thought running off in the distance, losing the chasers in a few minutes.
Unlike the previous time, I wasn't tired. Looking at the map I walked towards the south.
' It's time to meet some other races! '
