Legacy of the Betelgeuse

I logged out from the game as soon as I left the Land of Sigrid. I'm sitting on the couch while watching TV. I'm thinking about the decision that I'm going to make, and I need to think about it very thoroughly because this might affect the story of the game. I really want to tell Ivonna and the others about this, but they're still in the game and I don't think they're going to log out from the game soon.

I go downstairs and leave the mansion. I'm going out to get lunch because I'm not in the mood to stay in the mansion, and I need a place for me to think.

I'm eating a taco from the food truck on the side of the road while all the people that are walking past me staring at me with a surprised look on their faces. It must be because I'm eating while leaning on the hypercar that's still very rare for anyone to see around here, but I don't care what they're doing since that's not important. Then I get inside the car and grab my phone while driving back to the mansion. I summon Sev because I need to know if Becker is busy or not.

Sev appears on the screen and tilts her head.

"What can I do for you today, Trevor?"

I'm scratching my eyebrow and look at her.

"Is Becker busy right now?"

Sev nods.

"Yes, currently my master is inside a dungeon with his friends. But, he should be done soon. Is there anything you need from my master?"

I nod.

"I need to talk to him..."

I look at the time and continue.

"I will log in to the game in an hour or so, can you pass me the message to him that I need to talk to him as soon as I log in to the game?"

Sev smiles and nods.

"I understand. I will notify him now."

I smile and nod.

"Thank you, Sev. That's all I want to say, you can go back to do your thing."

Sev nods.

"Alright then, good afternoon, Trevor."

Sev then disappears. I hurriedly go back to the mansion.

I'm walking upstairs to go to the gaming room, but then Ivonna and the others are leaving my bedroom while laughing and chuckling. They're all looking at me and Ivonna tilts her head.

"Oh? You already have your lunch?"

I nod.

"Yeah, I need to go back into the game."

Ivonna nods.

"Oh, okay then. Have fun."

I nod and walk past them, then I turn my head and look at Ivonna.

"Ivonna!"

Ivonna and the others look back and looking at me.

"Yes?"

I'm humming and nodding.

"Tell, Kingstar, Diamond, Lothair, and Aspen after you had your lunch. I want to show you all the way to the Land of Sigrid. I have found it."

Ivonna is smiling excitedly and then she nods.

"Okay! I will."

I smile and nod then get inside my room. I go to the gaming room and log in to the game.

I memorize this spot so it will be saved in my portal skill, then I open a portal to the Fjel town. I check my friendlist and Becker is in the Eluna Empire. I message him that I need to talk to him now, he immediately replies and says that he's going to come to me. I go to our house and wait for him to come.

Someone is knocking on the door and I look out the window. I see Becker is standing in front of the door. I open the door and let him in. Becker is looking around to see if there's anyone here other than me. Becker then sits down on the couch and looks at me.

"What's wrong, Trev?"

I sit down and put my hands under my chin. I explain everything to him about the problem that I'm having. I need his opinion about the options that I have. He's humming with understanding and keeps listening to my story.

"Trev, do whatever you want to do. It doesn't matter if the decision you make will affect the story or not and if it will affect the players or not. I told you that you're here to play and have fun. You might not know this, but the story can change because you're no longer playing alone Trev. All the players' decisions are already affecting the story. Even if you choose not to, it won't change the fact that the story is moving forward in an unknown direction. You may think that you're playing the big game, and you are, but don't forget that a small change is enough to bend the course of the story. You can't control everything, and I made this game that way. You can't predict your own life in the future, right? So does this game. I told you that this game is like reality."

Becker is smiling and looking at me.

"Stop thinking that you have to handle everything on your own. I told you to take care of the players, but that doesn't mean you have to make the path for them. I told you to take care of the player is to make sure that everyone can have fun and to help them when they need it."

Becker then stands up and stands in front of me. He puts both of his hands on my shoulders.

"Don't be scared of what is going to happen in the future. All you need to do is just to be ready because every decision has consequences. Once you're ready and prepared for the consequences, what are you going to be scared about? Right?"

I smile and nod.

"Yeah, you're right..."

I look at him.

"Thanks, Becker."

Becker nods.

"Good! Then go out there and do what you want to do."

I nod.

"Will do."

Becker then stretches his arms while groaning.

"I need to get some rest, the dungeon was hard. I had to carry all my friends through the dungeon, but it was fun. If there's nothing else you want to ask, I'm going to hit the bed in the inn and have a nice and long sleep."

I scoff and nod.

"Alright, you can leave now."

Becker is raising his eyebrows.

"What? Are you kicking me out?"

We both laugh and then Ivonna and appears. We both are surprised to see her log in. Ivonna then looks at us.

"Oh? Long time no see, Maxwell."

Becker nods and waves at her.

"Yes, Miss Ivonna, it's been a while!"
