Legacy of the Betelgeuse

(Day 1)

I was having my breakfast in the dining room on my own, but then Ivonna and the others came to have breakfast as well. I was surprised to see all of them together, and so I asked out of curiosity, then Ivonna told me that they were about to gather more information about the dungeon since they didn't gather enough information on the dungeon yesterday because they only managed to reach 3rd stage and failed on the trap game. They planned on bringing more people into the dungeon because they wanted to find capable players for the raid attempt in the future.

They entered the game after they were done eating their breakfast while I went outside to go to the gym and meet my friends. I had a lot of fun until the sun disappeared, and when I got back, I saw Ivonna and the others were at the dining room eating their dinner. I approached them and asked about their attempt, Francesca said it was another failure, they failed on the 1st stage at first, I took them a week in-game time until they managed to reach the second stage with those players. Again, they failed on the 3rd stage and redid everything again, but they kept failing on the 1st stage that made Kingstar and the others have enough of it for today and plan for another attempt tomorrow morning.

(Day 2)

It was the same as yesterday, they were all ate breakfast together before they go for another attempt, I was watching and listening to their conversation the whole time. When they entered the game, I left the house again, but this time I went to a gathering where the owner of hypercars are spending their days talking about each other cars, and since I had no idea about cars, I would like to know more about it and spend my day with them. I met new people and I felt like I didn't belong there because those people are rich people while I was just lucky, but they invited me to play golf with them tomorrow and so I accepted their invitation.

I went home late at night, Ivonna was watching TV in the living room on her own, she looked at me and asked about my day. She looked worried when my battery went out so she didn't know where I was or with whom, but she was relieved when I told her that I was spending my night with my colleague when I was still a driver. I asked her about the attempt, and she sighed while she shook her head, she said that it was another failure and she didn't know what was the problem. I gave her some advice on clearing the 1st stage, and she listened to me carefully. After I gave her enough information, she looked a bit happier and will test it out tomorrow, then we both went to sleep.

(Day 3)

I went home early this time and everyone was still in the game, so I eat dinner on my own in the dining room. I took a shower in my room, but I heard a commotion outside, so I got out of my bathroom after I put my clothes on. I looked at Ivonna and the others and they looked so happy for some reason. Francesca looked at me and slapped my shoulder, she said that my advice worked really well and they had no problem at all on clearing the 1st stage. The next problem was about the 3rd stage where the trap stage is, they couldn't survive the stage because they always ran out of time before they manage to reach the safe room. I would love to give them some information, but I think they should be able to find it on their own.

(Day 4)

William was done with his week exam and so he could play again from today onwards, Emma told him about the new dungeon and she wanted him to come, William gladly accepted it since he couldn't wait to get into his pod to play. Ivonna asked for my opinion for her plan on the 3rd stage, I listened to her plan and it sounded so perfect in her perspective but that wasn't the right way to clear the 3rd stage, but since she only asked for my opinion, I just told her that the plan was great and she should try it.

I was on my own for the rest of the day, I binged watching movies in my room until the evening. I heard yawning and groaning from the gaming room, I looked at the door and everyone left the gaming room looking exhausted. I asked about their attempt, and they said it was so close for them to clear the 3rd stage, but the plan failed in the end. Ivonna looked so pissed for some reason, I looked at Chelsea and Francesca, they told me that she wasn't satisfied with Kingstar's decision because Kingstar wanted to bring in more people and attempted to raid the dungeon even though they didn't even manage to pass the 3rd stage, but the others agreed to his decision and so tomorrow they will attempt to clear the dungeon.

(Day 5)

I comforted Ivonna before she entered the game, I told her that it would be fine even if they failed the raid since everyone had already given their all for gathering the information and there's nothing wrong with them trying to bring in more people. She knew that but the reason she didn't like Kingstar's decision was that she doesn't want to waste the players' time since there's no way for them to be able to clear it, but I said that it was an attempt, and an attempt doesn't mean they would be able to clear it. She finally listened to me and logged in to the game after she gave me a kiss.

(Day 6)

I went to sleep early tomorrow so I didn't know what happened yesterday, I asked Ivonna and she said that they managed to reach the 4th stage but from 200.000 players that they brought, only 2.000 of them managed to reach the 3rd stage, and only 300 of them survived until the 4th stage, and they got wiped out on the 4th stage because they didn't have enough players. The 4th stage is the fake boss, they have to fight The Keeper of Time's illusion, and the annoying part of that is the players have to work together, it doesn't matter how many players are in the 4th stage, but as long as they know the mechanic of the 4th stage, they should be fine.

Today they will attempt another raid, and so I wished them good luck and told them to understand the mechanic of the 4th stage. They all gave me thumbs up and then entered the game, I really wanted to join them but my account is still suspended. I read the forum and saw the raid attempt notification by Kingstar, I read all of the comments and they were all so excited to join them, but most of them got rejected because they didn't meet the requirement for the raid. I was kind of feel bad for them, but it was for the greater good.

(Day 7)

Today is my last day, I can't wait to play tomorrow. We are all watching movies together in my room while eating popcorn, today is their resting day after a long and exhausting week for them. The reason they choose this day as their resting day is because they want to bring me to the raid tomorrow, and they need my presence to give them a morale boost or something like that. Of course, I'm going because I have been waiting patiently, and I want to see how they do the runs.

Ivonna's phone is vibrating, and she immediately checks her phone.

"Oh, they want to have a meeting now."

Francesca is grabbing a handful of popcorn and putting them in her mouth.

"Who? Kingstar?"

Ivonna is humming.

"Yeah, and the others as well. They want to prepare for tomorrow's raid, let's go."

We are all standing up and I turn off the TV while the rest of them are leaving the room.

Ivonna turns on the laptop and we join the video call. Kingstar and the others are waiting for us, and when they all see me in the room, they're all cheering for me with their arms wide open. They have been waiting for me, and I was avoiding them on purpose because I want them to solve the dungeon on their own.

We are talking about tomorrow's raid, Kingstar is bringing 100.000 players from the Aarus Empire with him, Diamond and Lothair are bringing 100.000 players from the Eluna Empire, and Ivonna is bringing 100.000 players with her as well. They all agreed on this to only bring 300.000 players with them because 300.000 is the maximum amount of players that they should bring since the 2nd stage is a pain and most of them might not be able to pass the 2nd stage anyway because of the time limit.

Because I already heard about their strategy from Ivonna, they don't have to tell me anything about it anymore. Kingstar sighs while leaning on his chair.

"This week was so exhausting, I don't even want to remember what happened the last 6 days."

Kingstar then leans forward and looks at me.

"Oh, and since tomorrow your account will be released, are you ready to join the raid with us?"

I smile and nod.

"Of course, I have been waiting for this day to come."
