Chapter 230: Thank You

As we made or way back home, Lily was fascinated with her new phone. However, we suddenly stumbled upon a video game store within the small mall we visited to go buy her new phone. There was a lot of VR Games in there, which left me quite surprised. I ended staring at the store for a while, looking at the various game trailers showing up.

In front of the store there was the newest VR Helmet model, the one my daughter and I had. There were several video games showing up, but the one that had the most was the Brand-New Life Online game, which was in an offer today, alongiside the VR Helmet Woah, apparently there was a new model coming out, so they were trying to sell the "old ones" even though they were the latest?

It appeared the new models were just changes in aesthetic and appearance of the helmet, as some people have complained they're a bit too stocky, or something like that. But there were many other VR games, I couldn't help but feel a bit attracted by them, they were all new games. It appears Nexus corporations had started working with other video game developers to make games for their consoles, took them long enough.

There was an FPS game, another game that seemed to be about cooking and farming?! And even one about monster catching. There was another focused purely on crafting and alchemy named "Atelier Kana" And more. Although I couldn't recognize much about popular classic franchises.

"E-Elayne? Are you interested in video games? You've been staring at the store for a while now" Lily quickly interrupted my thoughts as I quickly realized I've been staring for a bit too long.

"A-Ah, yeah. I've been playing a VR Game for a while now, it is fantastic. I've been having such a blast playing it with my friends Rita and even another friend play it with me. The world is so realistic and immersive!" I said.

"Eh? Is that so?" Lily seemed slightly interested.

"Yeah, I even built a whole farm, I've got a goat and all, and I've been harvesting delicious veggies and fruits. You can actually cook and eat in the game and it feels like eating in real life, it even helps with stuff like anxiety." I said. "Many people play it for this. But there's also a beautiful world to explore, the customization is quite wide, you can choose a lot of fantastical races and classes, even Farmers!" I said.

"Farmer is a game class?" Wondered Lily. "W-What about Botanist?"

"There was Botanist as well, it came with the Farmer Class. They recently added a patch with tons of these classes, even Painter, Chef, and more!" I said.

"W-Wow So I can just raise plants in the game? Or build anything I ever wanted?" Lily was even more interested.

"Yeah you can build stuff too! Did you ever wanted to?" I wondered.

"Well, when I was younger my brother always was playing a game named Minecraft. He ended inviting me to play it and it became part of my childhood and adolescence" Said Lily.

"I am sure you could build whatever you want as long as we try it out and find how to do it. I've built my entire ranch from scratch with the help of mushroom people." I said.

"M-Mushroom people" Lily said, suddenly blushing a bit. "Are they cute? Are there cute pets to raise?"

"Yeah! Tons! Each class comes with a summoning skill too, so you can get cute summons to raise that'll help you and protect you." I said with a smile.

"Woow this VR Headset is quite cheap the game is which one?" She wondered.

"Brand New Life Online- Wait a second, Lily you're thinking on?" I asked.

"Why not? I always have so much free time I want to relax a bit; I've also saved a lot of money so I can afford it. As long as I can have fun I am already old anyways; I've been thinking that I should try new things from time to time" Lily said with a smile.

"T-Then Let's do it! The VR Helmet is a bit expensive. If you promise me to become my friend in the game, I'll pay a third for the VR Helmet and I can pay half for the game, how about it?" I asked with a smile.

"Wh-What?! Why?" Asked Lily.

"You've given me a lot of discounts already; I am sure that should pay for the money you've lost with those discounts." I said with a gentle smile.

Lily seemed taken aback but ended accepting my offer.

"Thank you"

We quickly walked away from the store with a bag with the VR Helmet and the game.

"You got internet back home, right?" I wondered.

"Of course I do! I am not that old fashioned" She sighed.

Lily quickly began to look at her new phone, however, fascinated about it as well. She began using it around more and more, as her eyes began to shine brightly as if she were a little child with a new toy.

"I-It is so fast compared to my other one" She said surprised. "A-Amazing!"

"Right? It is pretty cool." I said. "Here, that's the app."

"I see" Lily quickly downloaded the app and a few others I recommended her while we made our way back home, public Wi-Fi was pretty useful.

When we got back home, we sat down in the table I had set near the garden and we set up everything. I had to bring my laptop for that, but things went mostly smoothly. I had done the same thing for a few friends before, especially Mark and Rita.

"Here's your page! Later on you can take some pictures and upload them there." I said.

"A-Amazing you did it so quickly!" Lily said.

"Yeah, it is very smooth stuff, nothing hard to pull out." I said. "I am quite experienced in doing these kind of things."

"I see Thank you so much Elayne, you've done so much for me" Lily said, suddenly getting emotional and beginning to cry.

"E-Eh? Lily?"

"I-I really thought my shop would end up closing It has been my all since I was like twenty It has been always my passion to have my shop When I began to realize that it might close I slowly started to get so sad and depressed, I didn't knew what to do"

"Aw, it's okay. We don't know how it will end up but we can keep trying, right?"

"Elayne you're such a cheerful girl, you've always been a walking sunshine."

"Ahaha You're flattering me too much Lily. And we have yet to set up everything, come on, don't cry for things like these."

"R-Right, I got a bit too emotional out of the blue"
