Desainer kepala SI Corporation yang terkenal, Xiao Yu, masih muda, menjanjikan, dan penuh dengan bakat. Tetapi siapa yang mengira bahwa surga akan cemburu dengan kejeniusan kepahlawanan ini ?! Setelah bangun dari kecelakaan mobil, dia tiba-tiba terlahir kembali sebagai hamster!

Zhang Yun is a gaming hamster. For a special mission in the Lost Kingdom, he has been a hamster for ten years. To his surprise one day, the game suddenly announces that the server will be permanently going offline just as he's about to complete the mission…

However, at the moment the game goes permanently offline, he actually brings the game system to an alternate world. He also brings along everything in his inventory, including his hundred million summoning scrolls.

Uh?

For a ten-year hamster to become rich overnight, what worries does he have at conquering the alternate world?

Ah, I'm sorry. You're mistaken. I don't want to fight. I just want to be a silent hamster…

Zhang Yun has a habit of hoarding stuff in games. For the sake of a special quest in the game 'Lost Kingdom', he's been hoarding all kinds of items for ten years straight. Just as he's on the verge of completing that quest, suddenly there comes an announcement that the server will be taken offline.
And then, at the moment of shutdown, he's transported into the game world, along with everything in his inventory... including one hundred million summoning scrolls.
Huh?
Ten years hoarding all this loot... every challenge rendered moot?
Ah, but please, don't get the wrong idea. I'm not looking for any trouble--just a quiet little hoarder, nothing more...

An unlikely team, Snake and Hamster, put their heads together to escape the pet store on the only day of the year there is no staff; Christmas.

A one-shot for a writing prompt - target length 1k words.

Clang--
The hamster collided with the cage again.
Xia Yu continued with the scaring practice, as he was happy with the hamster's reaction and his ability to puff up his fur whenever he wanted.
After half an hour, however, the hamster became immune. Regardless of species, when something was scared with the same thing over and over, the scenario would stop being frightening. 
Xia Yu began to try different ways of puffing up his fur.
He tried dropping to the floor first, ambushes, feint attacks...
　　
The different scare tactics would only scare the hamster for an hour, and then the animal got used to it.
　　
The hamster realized that the cat only looked scary and couldn't come inside the cage.
Realizing his scaring techniques weren't effective, Xia Yu knew he needed to step it up.
　
The hamster felt it was safe, so it wasn't afraid. Thus, he needed to break down the animal's sense of security to scare it.
Although having the hamster run loose in his room wasn't very smart.
He opened the door of his room first, then he went toward the cage and shook it really hard, trying to bite the cage.
The hamster was startled for a bit, but it was still calm until Xia Yu shook it out of the cage.
Seeing its safety nest, the cage, being tossed on top of a dresser, the hamster panicked. It tried to run under the bed, but Xia Yu moved it back to the living room.
Closing the bedroom door, Xia Yu ran to the hamster, puffing up its fur.
The hamster crawled on the floor with its claws, trying to stop moving forward, then ran to the right.
So Xia Yu ran to the right too, once again puffing up its fur.
After an hour, Xia Yu lay on the balcony to rest, also letting the hamster rest.
Five minutes later, he began the chase again.
In order to frighten the hamster more, he tried not to be disgusted and lightly bit the hamster, tossing it to the side.
Another hour had passed. It was time to take a break. Xia Yu lay on the sofa, while the hamster hugged a chair leg.
A door opened. It was the door to Youxue's room.
The girl noticed the black cat on the sofa right away, but not the hamster by the chair leg.
She picked up the black cat and stroked its fur, checking it over.
She breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the cat was fine.
So her brother wasn't abusing the cat. The cat was just playing with him.
It was still weird that he was locked in his room playing with the cat though.
Youxue smoothed out the cat's messy fur and carried it toward the bathroom.
Xia Yu, held by Youxue, was confused. What was his sister doing?
It wasn't until she closed the bathroom and started undressing that he understood the situation.
The girl was really naive. How could she just go into a bathroom with a cat? Didn't she know that there could be a person inside the cat?
　　
Xia Yu stood up and walked to the door. He was a cat with dreams and principles. He couldn't do things like this.
But before he could reach the door, Youxue grabbed him.
　　
"You have to take a bath!" The girl gripped him so tightly that he couldn't escape.
"..."
　
Xia Yu opened his mouth, pretending to bite her.
The girl hurriedly let go of him. He used the chance to open the door and run away.
He closed the door and locked it.
　
This sister of his had no sense of self-preservation, making him worry.
　
Youxue was freaked out by the earlier near-biting incident and didn't look for the cat.
When he heard the shower start, Xia Yu relaxed.
He headed toward the dining table and looked at one of the chair legs.
Hey, where was my hamster?

The hamster wasn't a small animal. It was just here. Where did it go?
He looked all over the living room, even under the sofa and dresser, he still couldn't find the hamster.
Where did it go?
It couldn't have climbed that high.
　　
He scratched his head and tried again, also searching inside the three bedrooms. The hamster was nowhere to be found.
　
Xia Yu stopped and sat on the sofa, trying to figure out where the hamster went.
After a while, Youxue finished her shower, coming out of the bathroom in a nightgown.
　　
The girl walked carefully toward Xia Yu, reaching out her hands.
　　
Assuming the girl was going to hold him, Xia Yu obediently put out his paws.
　　
But Youxue suddenly drew back her hands.
　
"Silly cat, I'm not holding you!" The girl chuckled and went inside her room.
　
While knowing Youxue was taking revenge on the near-biting incident earlier, Xia Yu was still a little anxious.
　　
What if his sister disliked him?
He smelled himself, there was no odor. But cats had a different sense of smell from humans. He decided to shower.
He went into the bathroom. Grabbing a wash pan belonging to Xia Dongyang, he started filling it with water.
The faucet was a little high. He needed to jump to reach the handle.
After filling the water, he used his paw to check the temperature. Just as he was about to go into the wash pan, he noticed an unwelcome visitor.
The grey hamster was hiding in the corner, among the bathroom products. It shivered near a bottle of body wash.
Xia Yu tried to analyze the situation calmly.
The hamster was in the bathroom.

Youxue was taking a shower in the bathroom earlier.
"..."
"Meow--!"
"Squee--!"
The black cat held the hamster in its mouth and tossed it in the living room.
He chased the hamster around until 2 a.m., canceling their rest period. After he was satisfied, Xia Yu put the hamster back in its cage, then he returned to his own body.
He sat up in bed and glanced at the hamster. The hamster was exhausted and passed out.
The black cat was also sleeping on the floor.
He picked up the hamster cage, waking up the hamster, and put it next to the black cat.
"Squee--!"
The hamster shivered with fright, hiding in the farthest corner of its cage.
　
Happy with the hamster's reaction, Xia Yu sat down at his desk and looked at the control panel.
Seeing [Scaring Lv 1], he smiled.
　
Facing the hamster, he tried to remember how he puffed up its fur and scared the hamster.
"Squee--!" The hamster saw the giant creature growing bigger, showing sharp teeth and a dark glint in his eyes.
The hamster stiffened and passed out in its cage.
Checking the cage, Xia Yu saw that the hamster only fainted. He relaxed.
　　
He needed to practice more with the hamster.
　　
When he had the Scaring skill, he could better handle the housekeeping chief.
　
He read a little and thought of how Youxue carried him to the bathroom.
Youxue was growing fast.
　
She was probably finding her old clothes too small.
　　.
At 7:30 a.m., after washing up and breakfast, he talked to his sister.
"What is it?" Youxue was confused.
Xia Yu took out 200 yuan, then added 100 more. "Get yourself some clothes."
Youxue noticed Xia Yu's gaze and realized why.
　
If it was other people, they'd have been upset or even embarrassed, but Youxue was not like those girls.
　　
She hugged Xia Yu. "Brother, you noticed. Thanks." 
She only took one bill. "I don't need this much money, just 100 yuan is plenty."
"Clothes like this need to be good quality. You can use the rest for whatever." Patting her head, Xia Yu felt bad having only 2500 yuan left in his savings. He still gave the 300 yuan to his sister.
He had to deal with the housekeeping chief today, and then finish learning the piano!
If he kept going like this, he wouldn't be making money, he'd be bankrupt!

 A faint blue holographic screen floated on Jiang Chen's right-hand side, and Lin Lin in the screen was debugging in front of a machine.
On Jiang Chen's left-hand side was a weird-looking machine. The reason it looked weird was that the box-design didn't seem to consider the consumer's perception. Other than the countless wires that connected to an arm guard, the other side of the machine was connected to two discs stacked together.
In the middle of the two discs was a hamster cage.
Lin Lin called this device, Portal No. 1.
As the name implied, it was a device used to transport things between the apocalypse and the modern world. Lin Lin designed machines with similar functions, and on a much larger scale, primarily used to help Jiang Chen transmit food and ore. But different from the previous device, this could be used to transport living things.
Jiang Chen jokingly referred to it as Hamster Killer No. 1.
"Ready?"
Putting on the arm guard, Jiang Chen took a deep breath, took a last glance at the suspicious machine, and then tightened his grip.
"Okay."
"That's the beginning... the coordinates have been imported." Lin Lin tapped a few buttons on the touchpad, "Countdown...3, 2, 1, 0! Power on!"
Blue arc flashed and merged into a vortex between the two discs. The instantaneous magnetic field surged and made all of Jiang Chen's hair jump up.
"What the... is this thing really reliable?" Looking at the spherical arc growing in size, Jiang Chen grabbed his right arm and moved back a little as he protested.
"No problem, no problem! The data is showing everything is fine, the channel is very stable...Though energy consumption is a bit fast, and the anti-matter that we took half a year to accumulate has almost been completely depleted, but those are all trivial things, you should concentrate on keeping the storage space open."
The ferocious magnetic field and the secondary dimension field began interfering with the interdimensional communication chip in the watch, and the holographic screen began to appear unstable. The zealous Lin Lin furiously typed on the keyboard while not forgetting to keep Jiang Chen calm.
However, her words did not give Jiang Chen any peace of mind, but rather, it made him more uneasy. If he didn't have unconditional trust in Lin Lin, he would have kicked the power long ago.
After forcing the thought of escaping out of his mind, Jiang Chen took a deep breath and submerged his consciousness into the storage dimension. Inside the dark and eerie spherical universe, he saw a ball of light. He then reached out and covered the ball of light sparkling with electric rays with his consciousness and pulled it into the modern world...
The deafening noise of static filled the room, then everything returned to calmness.
"Success!"
With Lin Lin cheering, the disordered magnetic field in the room disappeared instantly. When Jiang Chen opened his eyes, he saw on the cage of "Portal No. 1", a slow-looking hamster.
All the pressure he felt disappeared and he let out a long sigh of relief. With a weary smile, he sunk into a chair.
"Yeah, finally fu*king successful."
"Hey, can you not swear?"
Jiang Chen did not reply to Lin Lin as he took off the arm guard tied to his right arm. Then, he got up and walked to the other side of the machine.
One foot stepping onto the power switch, Jiang Chen then went and lifted the iron cage up and put it in front of himself.
Perhaps the current hurt its brain, but its black eyes stared straight at the human outside the cage. The small nostrils opened and closed, and it seemed to be traumatized. Jiang Chen thought about it, and he certainly understood its feeling. He would have been scared to death if he was in the arcs of a storm.
Jiang Chen looked at the shaking hamster in the cage, then he smiled and opened the door of the cage, patted its head.
"Lucky guy, at least a hundred predecessors died before you... Take this, your reward.
Jiang Chen handed the hamster a sunflower seed and then closed the cage.
When the little guy saw it, it immediately reacted. The two small claws grabbed the seed in a hurry and used its small mouth to quickly peel open the seed. After it ate the seed, it looked to Jiang Chen again with its benevolent eyes.
Jiang Chen could not help but smile when he looked at the fat hamster acting cute. He grabbed a handful from the bag next to him and threw them into the cage. The hamster surrounded by happiness gathered all the seeds around him.
"Hey, eat it. At least this is a good meal. There are still two sets of experiments waiting for you later."
If the hamster understood him, maybe it would have dropped the seeds in fear.
In short, Jiang Chen was extremely happy.
Although the hamster was only 50 grams in size, after this breakthrough, transporting a human would not be so farfetched.
He took out two crystals from the storage dimension. Jiang Chen pinched the crystal in his right hand and absorbed the energy. After looking at the lines on his wrist, he tossed the crystal that turned white onto the table.
"Are you done resting? I'm ready to repeat the experiment here!" Lin Lin put her face close to the camera.
Jiang Chen eyed Lin Lin in the holographic screen.
"Why do I feel like a white lab rat?"
"Not at all!"
At this moment, the picture in the holographic screen suddenly blurred. Lin Lin, denied the accusation, moved at an extremely slow pace.
Jiang Chen slightly frowned, raised his left arm and looked at the watch, but found no issues.
Lin Lin also seemed to be aware of this strange phenomenon in the apocalypse . She had already left the table and was running to the other machine. From her frown, he seemed to notice something unusual.
Jiang Chen tried to activate the interdimensional bracelet, but what surprised him was that he didn't manage to interdimensional travel, he was still sitting on the chair.
Just as he was shocked at this moment, the blur on the holographic screen disappeared, and the interdimensional communication resumed as normal.
Once again, he activated interdimensional travel. This time, there was not a single pause. In a blink of an eye, he had already appeared in the mansion.
He walked quickly to the backyard, passed through the side door of the institute, and under the crowd of Lin Lin sisters' watch, he ran into Lin Lin's new laboratory.
When he closed the door, he immediately asked Lin Lin, who was standing in front of the touchpad with a stern expression on her face.
"What happened?"
"I don't know. Just now, the Klein particle signal suddenly received strong interference. It should not be the device's issue... Wait, could it be..." Lin Lin's expression suddenly changed, and she clicked on the touchpad that formed several ripples. There was sudden realization on her face when she read the data from the device's feedback.
"What the hell is going on?" Jiang Chen frowned.
"The communication channel was crowded. When we talked, someone sent a Klein particle wave to this area. If I didn't guess wrong, you shouldn't be able to interdimensional travel at the time. Do you remember?"
Jiang Chen took a second to think and his expression instantly changed.
He recalled from a long time ago when he was in City K in Country F, the Kurofune used a special method that prevented him from interdimensional travel for a certain period of time. At that time, Lin Lin explained that the Harmony space colonization ship interfered through the resonance effect of the Klein particles by releasing a Klein particle wave.
This was originally a means of communication, except that the strength of the wave exceeded a certain threshold.
"Just then, that space colonization ship released Klein particle waves toward the solar system. You can understand that they used a 'radio' that can emit Klein particle signal and broadcast it to that area... But what is their purpose?" Lin Lin frowned.
Yeah, what is their purpose? The Kurofune was destroyed...
Suddenly, a terrifying thought came to Jiang Chen's mind.
"The Golden Apple."
Lin Lin looked at Jiang Chen with confusion. "Isn't the Golden Apple in your hands?"
"I... I gifted it to someone else." Rubbing the back of his head, Jiang Chen smiled bitterly.
Lin Lin's eyes widened and said.
"Gifted it? How can you do that?"
"It's... It's a long story. Didn't you say that it can only be used to receive signals? Anyway, the Remnants of the Void have completely lost connections. I thought that it was useless, so..." Jiang Chen scratched his cheek apologetically.
At that time, he exchanged the Golden Apple for the IAEA's acquiescence to the development of nuclear technology in Xin and won time for the development of Future Group.
"Well, you can't just give it away!" Lin Lin was very angry and stomping her feet.
"Can you locate the signal?" Jiang Chen interrupted Lin Lin's words.
"I can... but the Golden Apple is just a receiver. If you can only accept the signal unilaterally, I can only track the direction of the signal source at most... Wait, how is this possible?" Lin Lin stared at the flashing green dot and the parameters next to it with an incomprehensible look.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Chen walked over, though he couldn't understand the graphics or numbers on the holographic screen.
"Only half a minute ago, my Klein Particle Wave Tracker detected a feedback signal." Lin Lin looked at the screen, shocked. Muttering to herself, "how exactly did it do this? The Golden Apple? No... it's impossible to do it with just the Golden Apple. It must be something else."
Jiang Chen raised his hand and interrupted Lin Lin's muttering.
"I only have one question. Can you locate it now?"
"Yes." After adjusting her thought, Lin Lin nodded, and the finger clicked on the touchpad a few times. Then the signal light on Jiang Chen's left wrist flashed. "I have sent the coordinates to you... This is incredible"
Clicking on the holographic screen on his watch, Jiang Chen opened the mail.
It was a map of the world; the focus was on Northern Europe. A striking red dot was marked on the map, and the marked position was –
"Finland?"


After the nuclear war, ruins stretch across the landscape in the apocalypse.
If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermath of constant radiation.
But for Jiang Chen, this place is heaven.
Mansions standing tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.
What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. Your salary is two pieces of bread a day.
iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented is thinner than a condom?
Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.
Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possesses the ability to travel through space and time, as he witnesses the creation of an empire stretched across space and time... 


It was a big enough headache to deal with one brat. But it was a bigger headache to deal with a brat that only acknowledged authority, one that automatically categorized people into different castes according to their job.
Zhang Zian had thought he had finally won her over with his amazing personality and morals, but what had won her over was his new title… That was just infuriating.
Wang Yaning took a look at the bill before confidently announcing, "I suggest you not do these things that are out of your capabilities. You're just wasting your time! It's alright if your failed generation can't do these anyway. By the time my generation grows up, we'll inherit your regrets and make them all better! The world is yours, and the world is ours, but it's ours more than it is yours! Just retire peacefully!"
That was just AOE damage… The most infuriating thing was that the ending sentence was an edited famous quote. Even the spectating employees had exploded in excitement!
Thank goodness both Little Celery and Wang Yaning were rushing to go to school as it was their turn to take care of the hamster, and they couldn't stay here for long. They rushed towards Zhonghua Road Primary School after signing, and they could still hear Little Celery asking Wang Yaning, confused, "Yaning, what's the many consult conference?"
"Don't run, and be careful of cars when crossing the road!" Zhang Zian reminded them from the back.
Little Celery waved her hand in acknowledgement.
Zhang Zian tossed the thought over his mind. Could it be that it was in style to use famous quotes now? Well, it wasn't impossible. Their language teachers always gave them extra marks for using a famous quote in their essays, as long as it wasn't an overused one.
Just then, a common sedan slowed to a stop at the shop door.
Zhang Zian looked up. Maybe because he had driven a Mercedes-Benz before, he wasn't that interested in any normal cars at the moment.
The car window rolled down.
"Xiao Zhang, good morning."
What surprised Zhang Zian was that it was actually Professor Wei Kang that was driving, so he rushed up.
"Professor Wei, good morning!" he greeted him casually. "Isn't it the Golden Week holiday? Are you going to take care of a hamster this early in the morning too?"
Wei Kang was stumped. "Hamster? What hamster?"
"Nothing. I was just saying nonsense." Zhang Zian dismissed it.
Wei Kang knew that he was just an eccentric person. Just as he was about to bring up a serious matter, he saw a blue cat behind Zhang Zian, watching him with bright eyes.
"Hey, that's a…Russian Blue, isn't it?" Wei Kang blurted. "It's a rare cat to see in China."
Zhang Zian gave him a big thumbs up. "Wow, you're amazing, Professor Wei. You recognized it in one go!"
Since he'd brought Vladimir back to Binhai City, this was the first time someone had actually recognized its breed. No wonder he was a biology professor—Wei Kang was especially taken to cats and had researched them more. Other biology professors might not have been able to do what he'd just done.
"It doesn't seem like a purebred. Maybe there's a Chinese local cat in its ancestry?" Wei Kang, with his sharp observation skills, noticed the difference between Vladimir and a purebred Russian Blue.
"If you retire one day from the university, you can consider opening a pet shop. Who knows? You might earn more than what you do now." Zhang Zian praised him in awe and respect.
Wei Kang waved his hand. "Stop your sweet talk. I won't fall for it. If I really opened a pet shop, I would lose all of my money in a month," he said. "I'm out on an errand, and your shop was on the way, so I wanted to ask how your preparations for the Egypt trip were going."
Zhang Zian had more or less guessed Professor Wei Kang's reason for being here, and smiled. "What is there for me to prepare? Just give me the word, and I'll be ready to go by the next day!"
Even though he declared it so, he was still concerned about the Holy Cat statue. If he left Binhai City before he settled that, the situation might be blown out of hand by the time he came back. But it was something that he couldn't quite tell Professor Wei Kang.
"That's good…" Wei Kang noticed the paper he was holding in his hand. "What's that in your hand…?"
"Oh, I obnoxiously made a proposal, and I was looking for people to sign. Professor Wei, why not help me sign it?" Zhang Zian half-joked as he passed the bill over.
Wei Kang took it and perused it. "Mm, this is a good thing that would benefit us! It's a bit of a shame. We experts should be doing things like this, but…no one wants to put themselves out there. It's already busy enough doing your research daily, and we have to publish a set amount of journals every year to keep our titles… Do you have a pen? Lend me one."
Even though Zhang Zian called him "Professor," Wei Kang was actually just an assistant professor, and he had been slaving over promoting himself to professor. Besides better treatment, they should be able to get better research resources too.
Wei Kang picked up the pen, writing his name before passing everything back to Zhang Zian. "If you need more signatures, the PhD students and fellows should be able to sign for you too, and I can call up some of my colleagues."
"Then thank you in advance!"
Zhang Zian was more than glad to gain the support of all these experts, and it boosted his confidence greatly.
"No problem. It's a simple task. I'll contact them when I'm back. Then I'll be off, so remember to prepare carefully for our trip to Egypt!" Wei Kang reminded him.
His eyes went past Zhang Zian and Vladimir to the smudge of gold on the cat tower in the pet shop before he stepped on the gas reluctantly.
It was an excuse that he was just passing by. In reality, he had wanted to take a look at Fina, the only confirmed cat that was from Egypt. He felt that Fina had to be there for their trip to Egypt.
After Wei Kang had left, Vladimir finally opened its mouth to ask, "The old man earlier had a strong scholarly aura around him. You know him?"
"Yes, he's an assistant professor with Binhai City University's biology faculty. He's a nice guy, and I owe him a lot," Zhang Zian answered truthfully.
Vladimir hummed, seemingly not having a good first impression of Wei Kang.
"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Zian asked, confused. Had Wei Kang offended Vladimir earlier?
Could it be that Vladimir was upset about him saying that he was a mix between a Russian Blue and China's own cats? But that would be weird. Vladimir had never expressed its displeasure when Zhang Zian said that to their customers on more than one occasion.
"Nothing much." Vladimir shook its head. "Let's continue gathering signatures."
Since it was unwilling to speak, Zhang Zian didn't force it to. When it was willing to speak, it naturally would.
His signature collection had been going a lot more smoothly than expected. Zhang Zian gave it an extra thought. Where should they go next?

Rosey stormed into Acker's bedroom to find him standing across the room, General Fluffs in his hands. The scene took her by surprise, but she quickly recovered and shut the door behind her.
"Acker I..."he cut her off before she could finish.
"Hold it! General Fluffs and I do not take it to our liking, our being kept in the dark about this identical twin of yours. We demand answers, and we demand them now"he said.

"Yes, you do, and I'll tell you"Rosey said and crossed her hands over her chest.
"Me and Daphne have never really been close sisters, she pulled pranks and did stuff to get me mad. But I loved her, she was my other half, I couldn't hate her, even if I tried. That's how we grew up till we turned twenty, she had gotten enough of our controlling father, she dropped out of college, and ran away. I helped her escape, we did together, but in the middle of escaping and running away. She left me alone, worse than that, she called Dad told him where I was then left me. And now she has some nerve coming back here after everything that happened between us"Rosey said.

"Rosey, I am indeed disheartened that you feel such, but we are neglecting the greater issue at hand here!"Acker said.

"I know, I don't know how she got your spell book, or how she even knew about it, I'll have to find out..."Acker cut her off before she could finish.

"That's far from the matter! She stole a kiss from me! Now she has to suffer the consequences"Acker said sounding serious, but it made Rosey start to smile.
"Do you take my predicament so lightly, I relate my crisis and you turn it away?"he asked, Rosey tried her best to hide a grin.

"Fine, is there a cleansing ceremony she has to conduct?"Rosey teasingly asked. "The only ceremony she has to perform is a nuptial binding ceremony, between us both as that is the only form of rectification"Acker said.

Rosey furrowed her brows, "you want to marry Daphne?"she asked, her countenance had fallen almost immediately.
"I do not want to I am compelled to"he said and stared at the hamster. "The General will understand my plight, it is a thing of duty and one cannot forsake duty"Acker said.

"Acker, sorry to cut off your expectations, but Daphne isn't the marrying type. Or the any type you'll never get to fulfil that duty"Rosey said. 
"You're about to see Rosey, the true power of my determination, I will woo her into this alliance..."
"You won't be wooing anyone Acker! It was just a kiss, it didn't mean anything to you or to her. Lots of people kiss people today, there's literally a movie called the kissing booth. No one needs a reason to kiss anyone"Rosey enlightened him.

"How can such be! A booth, for kissing! Such sin should not be condoned. This time never stops surprising me"Acker said. "Rosey"he called out, she made a hmm sound. "Have you ever...kissed a man for the sake of it?"he asked, mumbled rather. He had his eyes down most of the time, Rosey was taken by surprise by this question.

"Well...I think I have"Rosey said, feeling somewhat shy all of a sudden, "what provoked you to engage in such with a man?"Acker asked, the room seeming tensed and awkward.

"I was not provoked, and I was ten at the time, and he was twelve, he was the son of one of my mother's friends"Rosey said. "You lost your innocence at such a young age?!"he asked almost screaming his head off. Rosey covered his mouth with her hand, her cheeks flushing crimson red.

"People can hear you and no I did not seal the deed"Rosey said, Acker stared at her hand on his mouth, "will you promise not to say anything?"Rosey asked, he nodded positively she slowly lifted her hand from his mouth.

"What stage of your life did you...seal the deed?"he asked and placed General Fluffs in his cage, to rest and eat.
Rosey looked around, pretending Acker was not in the room, but it was hard to avoid the Elephant in the room. 
"Why do you even want to know?"Rosey asked, not willing to talk about that topic.
"I am contemplating whether or not I should pursue the hand of your twin in holy matrimony"Acker said, "Infact, do what you want, am interested in seeing how this goes. But you and me have a lot of shopping to do"Rosey said.

"Why do you tend to refer to this shopping? Is it a brave act or an endeavoring task to prove great strength?"Acker inquired. Rosey face palmed.
"It's an enduring task, which proves your decisiveness and reflects your inner thoughts"Rosey said, grabbing Acker's attention fully.
"Then we must embark on this journey tomorrow! Before the sun rises, we shall conquer this quest"Acker said. "Am not sure malls are open that early"Rosey muttered to herself, walking towards the door.

"Rosey, do you intend to put on a charade that Daphne is non existing?"Acker inquired, Rosey stopped walking and sighed.
"It's complicated"Rosey said and left the room. 
"What is your take on this crisis general? Do we engage and obtain Daphne's hand or...do I need to kiss someone else?"He asked, staring at the hamster as if it could talk back. Then an idea flashed across his mind.

He picked up the spell book, and flipped through some pages, till he landed at a page. He read the page repeatedly, then closed his eyes, a glass fell from the study table. Wind flew in, Acker's lips parted, he mumbled somethings then opened his eyes. They were green, in seconds, everything stopped, his eyes flashed back to their original colour. He took a second to meditate and relax.

"The Fuck!"
"Wait shit! It's like...am saying my mind and words are coming out! Holy...."
Acker's concentration was blocked by the voice, he looked over at the hamster, who was moving around the cage in confusion.
"Oh dude I can talk! And my voice is dauuuumn!"The hamster said, Yes, the hamster was talking, speaking real words it turns out that Acker casted the spell rightly and got the results.

"General? Is that you?"Acker asked, the hamster stopped moving around and stared at Acker, for seconds they stared at each other, Acker started to doubt his sanity.
"Fuck am just messing with you!"The hamster said, Acker almost fell down due to shock, "you okay?"the hamster asked.
Acker nodded, gaining his senses, "I didn't know I could do it, I did it"Acker said under his breath still taking in the shock of his success.

"This was you! With all that Hocus pocus Vudu? All that Abracadabra gimmick you got going on? Oh man I owe you my dinner for this!"The hamster said, still moving around.
"General, there is a crisis, and it needs immediate action"Acker said, sounding serious all of a sudden.
The hamster rested against his cage and said,"shoot!"
"I don't hurt animals"Acker said, "I mean tell me, Jeez! Lighten up man"Fluffs said.
"I....this is an embarrassing situation...I...."Acker placed his hand on his neck, still contemplating the right choice of words.
"Just open your mouth hole and let the words fly out"Fluffs said.
"A...A woman ki... kissed me"he said frankly and a silence followed. The room became silent, too silent.

"Excuse me? Is... is...is that your definition of a crisis! You have a talking hamster in front of you! And you....You think a hot girl is the problem?"Fluffs asked not expecting an answer.

"Is it Rosey? I bet it's Rosey, I see the chemistry you too got going on"Fluffs said, "Rosey?"Acker asked in disbelief.
"Fuck yeah! I just feel bad for missing the kiss"Fluffs said. "it is not her that I shared a kiss with, it is Daphne, her twin"Acker said trying to clear up the confusion.

"There are two of em! You my friend are a lucky bastard!"Fluffs said, "for an animal, you definitely possess a loose tongue"Acker said, "Well I wasn't the one who casted that spell now was I?"Fluffs asked not expecting an answer.

"Then I'll cast another"Acker said, "hold up! You were the one talking about duty and not neglecting your duty, it's YOUR duty and you know it"Fluffs said.

"Rosey will never believe this"he said half smiling and chuckling, till it dawned on him.
"I made Rosey's innocent general a loose tongued tyrant!"Acker said panicked.

A/N: I think this chapter was kinda... I have no words, Rosey and Daphne have this delicate kind of relationship. I hope they can resolve this and make up. Wait! Am the one writing? I totally forgot for a second...lol...

Love you all! Thanks for the votes, see y'all in the next chapter.



"It is not safe in the temple for him!"the old master said, using the best of his power to keep the huge doors shut.
He conjured up a spell, but he was too old, and the forces outside were too prevailing.

"Take him away from here!"the man shouted, barely being able to push the raging power from the outside.

**********
Rosey Red was a very headstrong archeologist who along with her team set out to an old abandoned temple in search of a mythological artifacts.

The team and her scavenge for whatever might have survived the horrible outcome of the assumed fight.

Rosey and her team find the plant, though huger than their ecpectates.
But finding the plant was not the only thing that Rosey found.
*************
"Who are you!"Rosey questioned, across her was a man she had dressed in green sweatpants.
The man was still adjusting to the bright light in the room.

"I asked you a question!"She repeated.
"Where am I? How did you get here?"he asked.
"I should be asking you that! You're the one I found in a plant!"
*****************
"What is that abomination!"
"What this? It's just a burger. Here try it"Rosey said and offered it to him.

He sniffed it, and eyed it.
"What do you people put in this...burger?"He asked.
"Just Meat, buns, ketchup, Lettuce..."
"Lettuce!"he said almost yelling, grabbing everyone's attention.

  I felt good and gave my consent

The doctor I saw back then in the theater room came in and introduced himself.
   "Hey, how're you holding up? I'm Doctor Hamster Cage".

Hamster cage?  Interesting name you've gat there Hamster.
What a name!

God! I need to do something about the thoughts in my head.

Seeing that I never responded, he continued. "And you're Cassandra Manchester. Any body pains or weird feelings? I need...".
"I just feel tired" I cut in before he could finish his sentence. 

"Okay, that's fair. I'll be back to loose the stitches so, be prepared".

loose the stitches?! Oh! This doesn't sound good. Cassandra Manchester, sounds like you're about to experience hell.

"Stitches? Will I be given sedatives or tranquilizers just to induce the pain?". I asked staring directly at him.

JSYK, If there was a staring competition, I'd surely come first. 

"Well, due to what we found out..." He paused for a while and I swear I couldn't figure out what that look meant when he stared at me. It was so plain.
He continued "we can't give you tranquilizers or sedatives coz it might cause some complications to your body and that's because you have a weak immune system------" of course, I couldn't let him finish his sentence just when I interrupted him.

Oh great! Nice way to cut in Cassie.
Let the man finish his speech damn!

"Complications? Weak immune system?! Am I going to die? No! Am I dying already? What's---" the doctor cut in.
"No dear, you're not dying and you're definitely not going to die. You're okay, just relax and breathe". 
"Please get her some water" he said to one of the nurses who's a male who kept staring at me like he's been staring at poop for the past six minutes he's been here.
"Miss Cassandra, don't worry. I spoke to your mom already when she came by this morning. Everything's under control".

What?! Mom came and she never bothered to check up on me.
Well, I'm not surprised though.

"Okay". I said sheepishly in a sad tone. The male nurse handed me a bottle of water with a smirk on his face.

Good timing. Just when I needed the water.
WTF?! Is this asshole trying to mock me or what? What's with the look?

The doctor and the nurses left my room and just when I was about to turn my head to the right, I saw the same boy who kept staring at me the first day I got here like we were having a staring competition. He stood by the door with his arms folded.

He's got a cute smile and his eyes...my gosh! So mesmerizing. His eyes were as blue as the ocean and it made him look like he wasn't from this world.
How come I never saw this right from day one? Well, I couldn't get a proper view of him coz he was far away.

Our eyes met. I was about to talk and that's when I noticed his pink lips.

Cassie, you're a pervert!

"Why are you in my room? You're lost or what?". I said with a frown.

Seriously? Few seconds ago, you were crushing on him. What's with the attitude?

He laughed and said "I see you've gat an attitude there little lady. I'm---"
"I'm not little. Mind your words". I interrupted him and said to him with a frown.

"Okay ma'am. I was about to tell you that I wasn't in your room yet. I was by the door not in your room. Get it right". 
  "Are you seriously trying to piss me off right now? Coz if you are, then it's working". I said in a low tone but it's obvious I was getting pissed.

"I'm sorry, I never meant it that way. My apologies".

Being bullied can be really disturbing. Most especially when you're faced with all kinds of life's trials and you feel depressed. 
 This story is about a girl named "Cassandra Manchester" whose world seems to crumble before her eyes. She is faced with many challenges and eventually falls in love. But there are secrets she has to hide from the one she loves and most especially her family.
How far will she go to hide her secrets?
 Find out more in this book and you'll never regret it.

My eyes fluttered open. At first I was really confused, I didn't know where I was! But then I remembered the previous day and my encounter with giants. Great, it wasn't a dream. I looked over at the massive bed in front of me to see that Aiden wasn't there so I got off the pillow and onto his night stand. I noticed a small letter (well still pretty big to me) and read it. 

Gone for breakfast, don't go anywhere ;)

After reading the word breakfast, my stomach growled. Man I was starving! I wished I had my bag with me, but it was still at Nathaniel's. I decided to go back on the pillow and relax a bit before I spend the day with Chad. I had only spent a couple of minutes around him yesterday and I already hated him; The way he grabbed me like I was nothing more than a bug, the way he treated me like a pet, and the way he booped me!!! He was just so patronizing, it was annoying. I mean yeah I was small, but it was still super annoying. I heard footsteps and Aiden walked in, giving me a bright smile. 

"Morning sunshine! Ready to start the day?" 

He placed his palm beside me so I could get on. He was about to go out the door when I stopped him.

"But what about your sisters?" 

"Don't worry, they're outside. And my parents are busy on their computers, you'll be fine," he gave me a reassuring smile. 

Ok that was good, I wouldn't have to deal with 3 little girls. Then again they weren't so little. Gosh I hated being small! 


We arrived at Nathaniel's house, much to my dismay. Although he wasn't as bad as Chad, I certainly preferred Aiden. He walked up to Nathaniel's room, where he placed me on the desk. Good to be back. 

"Here's your bag little lady," said Nathaniel as he dropped my bag on top of me. 

He gave his signature smirk. My blood boiled as I glared at him. He chuckled, mimicking my expression. I let out a groan of frustration. I looked over at my bag, then down at my clothes. They were filthy! I had worn them all day and all night, I really should get changed. I picked out some clothes and made a little pile. 

"Um... a little privacy please?" I said, gesturing to the pile of clothes. 

"Oh of course!" said Aiden, grabbing Nathaniel's arm and pulling him out the door. 

I sighed in relief. Finally a moment of peace, away from giant eyes staring at me and studying me. I got changed into a black tank top and comfy shorts. I put my flannel over and took off my socks. My feet were in dire need of a breather so I just wore my crocs. I looked through my food stock and found my sandwich. I ate it in 3 bites because I was just so darn hungry. After I finished, I called the boys back in. They both walked in, but unfortunately they were now accompanied by Chad. 

"Awwww you look so cute!" he said, about to boop me again. 

But this time I shoved his finger away. He chuckled then gave me a wide grin.

"Well, I'm ready to go, thanks again Nate! You're the best," he picked me up in one hand and my bag in the other. 

I started squirming and kicking, despite knowing that my efforts to escape were futile. He shook me a bit to get me to stop, and sadly it worked.

"Catch ya later bros!"

Ughhh he even talked like a Chad! 


When we arrived at his house, I was in aw. His house was huge, even for giant standards. The house had a massive front lawn, 4 levels and was wide and bulky. I lived my whole life in a small cottage, so I was definitely not used to this. When we got inside, I saw a pool through a glass sliding door. Chad walked up the flights of stairs up to the third floor, where his bedroom was. His room was also really big. He had a king sized bed, a gaming/tv area, a dresser and a desk. His room was decently tidy, a few things here and there. He set me down on the floor. I shivered as he stood up to his full height. He grabbed something from the closet. It was a... hamster wheel? 

Oh no. Oh no no no no no. I did not like where this was going. I tried to run to the door, hoping that I could somehow escape, but a massive hand plucked me off the ground by the back of my shirt. I was overcome by vertige at the sudden movement that whisked me into the air. Chad brought me up to his face, where I could see an evil humour in his eyes. I kicked him in the nose and he let out a small grunt and looked away. I smiled. But it quickly faded when he looked back at me with a glare. 

"For someone so small, you're quite the handful."

He set me back down, beside the hamster wheel. Chad pulled out his phone and got down to my level, as if ready to take a video. There was no longer an ounce of fear left in me as my anger took over. 

"You're funny if you think I'm getting on that for a stupid video."

"Does it look like I'm joking? Now get on!" he flicked me and made me fall over, but I got back up.

"Sorry pal, not gonna happen. You don't scare me!" 

"Oh really?" he lifted an eyebrow. I did too, challenging him. 

He got up to his full height, trying to threaten me. My neck hurt from looking up so high. He lifted his foot slightly, as if about to step on me. He continued to lift it higher and closer to me, until the sole of his shoe was right over me. I still refused to move as if I were in a game of chicken. I still didn't move until I felt his shoe lower. His sole touched my head as he applied the slightest bit of pressure. I collapsed to the floor as his shoe got nearer and nearer. 

I finally crawled out from under there, just as his shoe hit the ground. I gasped, my heart in my throat. I could've died if I hadn't moved in time. I could've literally died! I was still gasping for air when Chad got back down. 

"Scared yet?"

I simply stared at him. I just couldn't find my voice. 

"Oh come on! I wouldn't have actually killed you! I was only kidding. But, now that you're calmed down... how about that video?" 

Even if he said that he wouldn't kill me, I was still too terrified to say no. I got into the hamster wheel. I looked over at Chad one more time before I started to run. He had his phone in front of his face, but I could tell he was grinning at my humiliation. I ran for about a minute when Chad set his phone down. 

"Aren't you just the cutest little thing!" 

He continued to watch me lose my dignity until he finally told me that I could stop. 
When I got off, my heart was beating like a drum. Not because I was tired, (I was quite fit after all) but because I was so scared about what Chad would do next.

"Wow I am starving! Time sure flies when you're having fun."

After Chad got back up, he picked me up by my leg and brought me over to a really high shelf. I could feel the blood rushing to my head, until he finally dropped me on the shelf. 

"Now don't you go anywhere missy!" 

Like I would try! The shelf was even taller than Chad. Guess I'd have to stay here. And I was getting hungry too, but my bag was all the way back down on the floor. 


Chad finally came back, looking satisfied with himself. He came over to where I was and stared at me, a puzzled expression on his face. 

"What to do, what to do..." 

I just shrugged, I didn't want to give him any ideas. He snapped his fingers and beamed. 

"Oh I know! You can go on my bed, and I can jump on and let you have a little trampoline ride!" 

"Uhhhh that's ok..." 

But of course he ignored me and simply grabbed me around the waist. He brought me over to the bed and let me fall face first into the comforter. Good thing it was just a bed... 

"Ready? 3, 2, 1!"

He jumped onto his bed and I went flying. I'd like to consider myself a thrill seeker, 
but this was waaaay out of my comfort zone. I plummeted back down to the bed, only to be sent flying again. This tedious cycle went on for what felt like forever, but I don't think it was even a minute. I finally felt myself slow, until the bouncing ceased completely. I lied down on my back, trying to catch my breath. 

"Awww! Don't tell me I scared the poor little girlie," teased Chad, giving me a mocking grin. 

Gosh I really hated him. I took control of my breathing and sat up, glaring directly into Chad's deep bleu eyes. Then I felt my gun and knife. I still had the upper hand... I think. Yeah I think so. Chad must've seen a slight look of confidence, because he grabbed me in a tight fist. 

"You hiding something little girlie?"

"Nope," I lied. 

I'm usually a good liar, but Chad didn't look convinced. Without warning, he held me upside down by my leg again, this time shaking me a bit. I could feel my weapons sliding out of my pocket. My heart sank as I saw them fall out completely onto his awaiting palm. Chad stopped dangling me and placed me in an even tighter fist. 

"A little small to be handling a gun like this don't you think?" 

He walked over to the trash, about to throw my only methods of protection away. 

"Wait no! Please! My dad gave me that knife! I don't care about the gun, but PLEASE let me have the knife!" I begged. 

I didn't care if I looked pathetic, I didn't even care that I was crying. I just wanted the last thing my dad gave to me before he lost my mom. Before we both lost my mom. 

"Your dad gave you a knife, really? How gullible do you think I am? You're just gonna stab me with it aren't you!"

"No, I won't! I promise!" 

Chad stared at me a little longer, trying to decide if I was lying or not. 

"Fine. But if you try ANYTHING, I promise you you will not enjoy the consequences," 

He threw away the gun, but loosened his fist so I could grab the knife. He set me down by my bag and ordered me to put it away. After I obeyed, he picked me back up by the back of my shirt, bringing up to eye level. I tried to look away, but he basically filled my whole vision. 

"You know what? I think I'm getting bored of you. I'm gonna go watch some Jetflix,"  (sorry for the unoriginal name :/  )

Chad set me down on his desk and put his hamster wheel away. This time he brought a small cage out of his closet and approached me with it. 

"Get in, I don't want to worry about you trying to escape," 

I did what I was told and got in. I pity the hamster he must've had long before me. Chad closed the cage and went downstairs, slamming the door behind him. I had to cover my ears because of the loud noise. I looked around, contemplating my situation. Ever since I got here, I've been held, squeezed, poked, prodded, put in a jar, been dangled by my leg and now I was in a cage! I let out a scream of frustration and kicked the cage. Why was this happening to me? I was just trying to get a better life, away from foster care. But now I was stuck in the giant world. I sat down, hugging my knees to my chest and started crying. No not crying, bawling. 

Why me? Sure I sometimes lost my temper, but I never hurt anybody! I got good grades. I was nice, except for when I got mad. I cared for my parents. I respected the land around me. I wasn't a bad person! So why was the univers punishing me? I felt the tears slow so I took a deep breath. I would find my way out of this. I just had to! 


Chad came back after hours. He glanced at me for just a second, before gathering his pyjamas. He started to strip, IN THE SAME DARN ROOM AS ME! I yelped and looked away. 

"What? Never seen that before? You never got on with human boys?" he laughed. 

"Of course not! I'm only 15!" 

He laughed harder. 

"So? I'm 16 and I can't count the naked girls I've seen," 

"Ew! You're a filthy pig!"

"Watch your mouth," 

And I did. Even if i couldn't see him, I could feel his glare. 

"Good night little girlie," 

I turned around.

"Wait, I don't have a bed," 

"So? Not my problem," he said as he focused his attention to his phone. 

Well, I guess that I'm sleeping on the cold steel floor of the hamster cage.

After trying to run away, Émelie gets captured by a giant. He brings her to his world where she cannot escape. The giant teases her, so she learns to dislike him. But after much time together, those feelings start to change.

George didn't die in battle.
Some Knights were killed, while others escaped. His good friend John perished in battle. George knelt down hopelessly and dropped his weapon. 
He looked at Hoodlum, who was stabbed to death many times but was able to reappear again and again before him.
Hoodlum wasn't completely killed and was healed by a powerful pastor.
That was what George thought.
When he finished his action, he was waiting to be killed. But he found that the gamers suddenly stopped attacking.
Some other gamers wanted to attack him but were stopped by others.
"Gosh, stop hitting. If the BOSS dies, there will be no more Strange Encounter!"
"The BOSS has surrendered! Look, he has dropped his weapon!"
"No, he's still wearing armor!"
"What, he's still wearing it?"
George didn't understand what they were saying. Were they asking him to surrender? 
George stripped his armor upon seeing that his enemies had no intention to kill him. He thought that they were barbarians that couldn't be understood, but he was wrong.
They had no intention to kill a surrendered Knight. Likely, they were capturing him.
To George, it was good news.
He thought he was going to die. Now that he had a chance to live, how could he not be happy?
George stripped his Breastplate, Plate Leggings, and Pauldrons and was only left with his clothing.
The gamers continued their discussion.
"No, I have to kill him. He's still wearing his clothing. That's quality clothing!"
"Gosh, it's really nice. It's a noble's clothing!"
"Stop hitting him. The BOSS has surrendered!"
The group of gamers shouted at each other.
George was about to shed tears of humiliation, but he endured it and took off his clothing.
Then he was captured and brought back to Victoria City.
…
In a cold metal cage, George lowered his head dispiritedly and looked listlessly outside. It was much more dilapidated than the poorest village.
This was Victoria, Victoria Freedom City.
Though it was a Freedom City with many more Humans, the roads and houses were inferior to a common village.
Though George wasn't knowledgeable, he knew that the construction materials used in Victoria City weren't produced by professional machines. They were produced by amateurs. Even George thought that he could produce them.
The only appealing building was the Castle. Though it was made of plants, its magnificence and building style were appealing to the eyes. It didn't have any traces of manufacturing.
Besides the buildings, their way of storing their items was strange. They didn't have a dedicated warehouse officer. All of the equipment was stacked at the empty spot outside the Castle, together with the blood-stained equipment and food materials. 
It was grotesque. Did they eat such stuff? Green, blue, and colorful stuff that looked like it was made of animal parts.
George was feeling fortunate that they weren't Ogres.
He saw the Victorians stacking the dead Humans together. Then they burned the corpses without any emotion or rituals.
When they brought back the dead horses, they were sad and despondent.
It seemed like a horse was more precious than a Human.
George wasn't a saint. Though he was a Knight and a Christian, he didn't harbor any kind of compassion in battle.
It was already great compassion to gather all of the corpses for incineration. That would prevent the bodies from being eaten by wild beasts.
They were also worried about the possibility of a plague.
Who knew, and why would they be concerned?
George was letting his imagination run wild. He couldn't understand how he was defeated by these ill-equipped barbarians.
Undeniably, these barbarians were handsome and beautiful.
There were also Fairies and Elves.
A fat Hamster appeared before the cage and gave him a fright.
"Is he the BOSS?" The Hamster gazed at George and spoke in an unknown evil language.
"Yes, it's him. He's got yellow hair…" Another Hamster came close.
"When do we have our meal?" That was the third Hamster.
"Oh! Lancelot is here. Speak in the Human language," the first Hamster said nervously.
"Hi, Count Glamorgan. Are you here to see the BOSS?" The second Hamster straightened his body. He was speaking in a language that George understood.
While George was trying to figure out the intent of the three Hamsters, he saw a familiar face. It was Lancelot!
Since when did he become Count Glamorgan? Did he have a noble's title?
Lancelot grasped his sword hilt and walked over. He looked at the caged George and the three Hamsters, then bowed to the Hamsters. Though he was Count Glamorgan, he didn't take it to heart.
"Count Glamorgan, we intend to bring this golden-haired lad to see Queen Victoria. Do you have any matters?" Big Boss looked at Lancelot and asked.
"No, I heard the description of the prisoner and thought I may know him. So, I came to take a look." Lancelot shook his head and looked at George while he squatted down.
"It has been a long time, George."
"Laugh if you will, you unfaithful Lancelot," George said as he looked in disdain at Lancelot. 
George was in a hilarious situation. He didn't have any clothes and looked like an animal in the metal cage.
"What's up? What George? What unfaithful Lancelot? Were you two classmates? Did you give each other names in class?" Second Boss looked bewildered at George and Lancelot.
Big Boss said, "It's their custom. They like to create titles. Like Hoodlum, he was called Slumbering Hoodlum because he was good at sleeping."
Second Boss was enlightened.
The Hamsters talked to themselves, but Lancelot wasn't bothered. He looked at George and said, "Queen Victoria is a capable Lady. What she asks you to do, I hope that you won't decline. This is your last chance for survival."
George laughed and didn't speak.
Big Boss opened the metal cage, and Second Boss threw a set of clothes to him. He couldn't be naked when he visited Lilo.
Fat Otaku was drooling when he saw the metal cage, but Big Boss dragged it away.
George followed the three Hamsters to the Castle. He thought he would be allowed to go inside to meet Queen Victoria, though he wasn't sure why a poor Victoria village would have a Queen.
George thought too much.
The door on the second-floor wooden balcony opened, and a medium height young lass of about thirteen or fourteen years old came out. She wasn't wearing any crown, but she was Queen Victoria—Lilo, her Highness!
"Are you George?" Lilo stood on the balcony and gazed down at George.
George nodded. He didn't look good. He suspected that Queen Victoria might be humiliating him.
Even the King couldn't stand on the balcony and speak to him in a condescending manner.
"Good, where's the Duke of York? Does he have a female successor? Where is she?" Lilo asked a few questions in succession, but George looked astonished. He didn't reply.
Lilo frowned. She was running out of patience.
A pale Human stood out. He was the person shot by Softie!
Lancelot watched the person walk out and felt as if his heart was being hammered. It was a feeling of love, and the target was a lad…
"Your Highness Queen Victoria! Let me say a few words!" the person shouted with great effort.
Though there were many gamers watching, Lilo didn't wish to hear their chatting, so she exerted her dominance to control them. The gamers weren't bothered as they were in Plot Animation Mode. 
Queen Victoria looked at the person and nodded, allowing him to speak.
The person was agitated, so his body trembled. He shouted to Queen Victoria, who was on the balcony, "Your Highness! I know the location of the Castle of the Duke of York! I also know about his successor. I'm one of his successors!"
The person shouted, and at the same time, George screamed loudly, "Traitor! Are you letting your uncle down?"
As he shouted, he was restrained by three unruly Hamsters.
Lilo didn't ponder as she said, "Good, you shall be the wife of Count Lancelot. We'll kill the Duke of York, and you shall succeed him. The York Territory will be part of my fief! It's decided."
Lilo turned to leave, but she recalled something. She pointed to George, who was restrained by the three Hamsters, saying, "Release him. Let him return to inform the Duke of York to prepare his warriors and equipment. Victoria City is exacting our revenge."
Lilo returned to her Castle after speaking.
George, Lancelot, and the unknown successor to York Territory were gaping in astonishment. 
"Ooo, ooo, ooo!"
George was being pulled away by the three Hamsters.
Lancelot shouted, "Wait, wait for a moment! He's a lad!"
Lilo had no intention to show herself. The cute boy was taken aback, but he ran to Lancelot and bowed to him before shouting with his eyes closed, "From today onwards, I'm your wife! Help me defeat the Duke of York! Help me get back the York Territory!"
"Ah?" Lancelot was unable to understand what was going on. 
The gamers who were out of the Plot Animation Mode left happily.
They obtained equipment and horses. In the near future, they would have a chance to attack the York Territory. How could they not be happy?
They were complaining of the thin Plot. Now, they wished for less, but they couldn't resist the desire to attack the York Territory!
…
At Winterfell.
Arthur, NotWearingPants, Sylvanas, Peasant, BurningChestHair, and twenty other Pioneer Alliance members were looking for possible leads.
Recently, the gamers of Eternal Kingdom combed the streets to find leads for the Strange Encounter Mission.
The other game maps weren't large, only the Winterfell map was huge.
For the past few days, the gamers of Eternal Kingdom searched Winterfell.
Especially the large Guilds. Due to the animosity amongst the Guilds, they didn't wish their competitors to find the leads of the Strange Encounter Mission. However, they were unable to attack and kill each other in Winterfell. So, they made full use of their time and the most efficient methods to find possible leads. 
That was what Arthur's Guild was doing.
"Where can we find the Heavy Tangerine and the cat in a box? Is there an orange cat in this world?" Peasant walked for a long time, and his eyes were getting blurry, but he didn't spot any cats.
Lord Sherlock had a black cat. Though it wasn't an orange cat, he was harassed by the gamers. As long as there was a close relation to cats, the gamers would investigate to see if they could find any leads.
From the posts on the discussion forum, the gamers didn't have any breakthroughs.
It was late at night, and the gamers were tired after a day of searching. Many gamers got offline. They would continue the search tomorrow.
Arthur wouldn't force his Guild members to stay overtime to search for clues. After all, they were playing computer gamers and not working. Arthur didn't pay his members any salary, unlike the other rich Guilds.
Finally, there was only Arthur and his five-member team.
Raintea would go offline punctually every night.
"What shall we do? Shall we go offline too? It's three in the morning. There aren't many gamers left. Even the night market is closed," BurningChestHair said as he pointed to a shop that was packing up for the night.
There was a night market in Winterfell. The gamers knew about it. Arthur and his members had been searching until late at night before going offline.
Arthur looked at the time and intended to go offline. NotWearingPants suddenly shouted, "Gosh! Is that Heavy Tangerine?"
He pointed to a shop that was packing and closing. They saw a shopkeeper who was wearing clothing with an orange cat imprinted on the chest. The orange cat wasn't overweight, but the shopkeeper was obese.
Heavy Tangerine!
The five of them eyed each other before running over. The shopkeeper noticed them and stopped closing. He shouted at them, "Are you from Eternal Kingdom? Apologies, I have some matters to deal with today. Normally, I'd treat you to a bowl of food."
"No, shopkeeper, we're not here to eat! We'd like to ask you questions." Sylvanas took out a photograph that showed a skull and asked, "Do you know him?"
The shopkeeper looked at the photograph and examined it carefully.
Peasant also took out a photograph that showed another Skeleton and said, "This is the disciple of his missing mentor. Did you see his mentor before?"
The shopkeeper looked at the two photographs. After comparing and switching the photographs, he looked at the five gamers and then lowered his head to examine the photographs before saying, "Are you trying to fool me?"
…
They didn't obtain any information. The shopkeeper was angry due to some strange reason and shouted, "I haven't seen the Skeleton. Now scram!"
Seeing their lead coming to a dead-end, Peasant asked casually, "Boss, where did you buy the shirt?"


Sherlock is a new generation Dungeon Lord whose ambition is to become the greatest Devil King and building up the greatest Dungeon in the Underworld.

They call themselves—Gamers!
