The Immortal Player

Chapter 257: The Plans For a Gaming Camp!

Before Pedro and Weyron could utter another word, Pedro's Aunt Veronica faked a cough and said, "Before the two of you talk and dream of being able to participate in the exhibition games, we need to establish a gaming camp for the two organizations beforehand. We do not know what you specifically have in mind, nephew. So, we agreed to wait for your decision regarding this matter. Tell us what you had in mind The estimated budget for the gaming camp... The size of land area that you need... And which amenities are needed."

At this moment, Pedro scratched the back of his head and said, "About that Initially, I planned to ask father about thatconsidering the fact that the company owns several buildings in Manila. However, because of the profit that we gained from the auction, I am now thinking of going to a more independent pathwhere we buy land and commission some contractors to build our gaming camp."

"That's the best choice we have." His Aunt said. "However, I am worried that our current budget won't be enough for the construction of a gaming camp In case it is sufficient, there's a probability that we'd lack the budget for other mattersincluding the compensation of our players. So I think it is ideal for us to rent a place or utilize an unused space by the company in the meantime. After all, we don't need to support that many players yet. Other than the players in charge of the management of the main branch of the Adventurer's Guild and the players who have the potentials to be part of our pro-team, there's not much need to require the other players under the two gaming organizations to attend the gaming camp for player development and such."

"I understand what you are trying to say, aunt! However, I think that it is more budget-wise to have our own gaming camp in the long run." Pedro said before he smirked. Then, he said, "In any case Give me a few more days to think about this matter. I want to learn more about the details of the exhibition games so that I could see if there's any way we could take that chance to earn some money. For now Try to see if there are any lots for sale around the Metro Manila Areaor the adjacent provinces, and check their price. As for the land size It should be a hectare, at the least!"

"A hectare?!" Weyron asked as his eyes seemed like it was about to pop out from their sockets. Then, he said in a mocking manner, "Are you going to build a small stadium, cousin Peds? Isn't a hectare of land too huge for a gaming camp?"

Pedro simply shook his head and said, "It's smaller than you think it is, Wey! Anyhow Just do as I say. I'll tell you guys more about it later on. What is important is to be able to estimate on how much the establishment of the gaming camps would cost."

"Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha." Weyron laughed like a retard. Then, he asked, "Do you even need to finish your college degree, cousin? I mean You're starting another company while there's already another one that you would inherit in the near future!"

Pedro simply forced out a smile in response and said, "Do you think that grandma and my parents would allow it? Besides It's not like my course is that hard."

'Well I already took the very same classes and had even graduated with a good record in my past life. So It's easy for me this time around and it would not hurt me to continue my studies.' Pedro chuckled to himself deep inside.

On the other hand, Weyron could only force out a smile in response as his mom, Pedro's Aunt Veronica, glared at him while her hands were placed on her hips. She said, "Look at you! Being a bad influence on your cousin! And who told you that you don't need to graduate from college too?"

"Relax, ma!" Weyron said whilst forcing out a smile. Then, he added, saying, "It was only just a joke ok! I was being sarcastic! Sheesh! I don't know if both of you can't take any jokes or both of you are just slow to know that I am just joking Besides No one wants to be chased with a machete to the ends of the world by grandma! So, why would I be serious about that?"

Pedro and his Aunt Veronica could only shake their heads in response as if they were saying, 'Excuses!'. Then, Pedro simply sighed and said, "Anyway How are the things in the game doing? I have been in training with Sabri and the NPCs for quite some time. Do you still have enough Aron Burners with you?"

"Sabri? You mean, your girlfriend?" Weyron smirked as if he was teasing Pedro. Then, he said, "Hey, cousin What are the two of you training together? Don't tell me that it is some kind of secret cultivation technique? You know The lover thing!"

Pedro simply sighed in response and said, "Wey! I don't do the same things that you do. I suggest that you don't reveal your secret deeds right in front of Aunt. Hahahaha!"

"Tsk!" Weyron flicked his tongue in response. Then, he frowned and said, "Secret deeds my ass! I don't even have a girlfriend. And you tell me that I am doing such indecent things. Aish I don't know if I would be angry or what!"

Pedro's Aunt Veronica simply laughed in response and said, "Aish Nephew! Don't be too hard on your cousin. He hasn't had a girlfriend for the past few years. That's why he can say such things. It's probably also the result of reading too many comics."

"Aish Why do you guys need to bring up my unfortunate love life! Let's talk about the game! The game!" Weyron complained that made Pedro and Veronica laugh. Then, when the two calmed down, Weyron said, "You don't need to worry about the Aron Burners for now. We still have a lot on stock, even after catering the needs of the Kingdoms in the North and East side of Aquari Continent."

"The South is the most populated area though Are you sure that you still have enough? Don't hesitate to tell me if you still need more, or even if you have some problems that require my help. I'll do my best to help." Pedro said. Then, he paused for a second and smirked, before saying, "Except love life problems"

"Aish!" Weyron could not help but grumble in response. Then, he sighed and said, "I am fine, okay. There are no problems and in case there are, I would immediately inform you about them. So, don't worry!"

Pedro simply nodded in responserelieved that there's currently no problem which he needed to personally interfere concerning the Adventurer's Guild. Then, Pedro glanced to his Aunt Veronica and asked, "How about the fleet, Aunt? Were there any problems that you encountered? Any problems that the NPCs reported?"

Pedro's Aunt Veronica simply shook her head in response and said, "There's nothing notable on my side, nephew! In fact, I even have a piece of good news!"

"Hooo Can I ask what is it, Aunt?" Pedro asked with a smile.

Pedro's Aunt Veronica said, "The critical patients, namely Arvedar and Yojiro, woke up a few days ago. Their body was still under recovery though. But Arvedar was even so eager to catch up with his friendswho were with you. It seemed like his two friends had been teasing him ever since the Adventurer's Guild was founded."

Pedro laughed in response and said, "Those three If that's the case, then I'll proceed with the transformation skill experiment. I'm just concerned that our players would think too highly of the transformation skills to the point that they would depend on it instead."

Then, Pedro glanced to Weyron and said, "The same case for you, Wey! Don't depend on the transformation skill too much! And don't even think of it as a trump card of some sort! It would not be good for your character development, especially in the future!"

Weyron sighed in response and said, "I know! I know! And FYI, I am taking the Sword Master's training and the Mage's training in my free time. So, you don't need to worry about me. I learned my lesson when I got trashed by that green-haired brat with you!"

Pedro simply chuckled in response and said, "That's good! Just keep on doing that and you'll see the results of your hard work soon. The Exhibition Games is coming, and you'll see the difference between players who are dependent on skills and those players who really have skills!"

"You seem to know a lot, cousin Peds?" Weyron asked.

Pedro simply scratch the back of his head in response and said, "Of course! It should only be natural Because I am a gamer!"
