Adrian spent his remaining time helping his mother with miscellaneous housework and when he finished them he would go outside to their terrace and look at nature. He was in their backyard and is happily relaxing in the shade of the a mango tree that he planted himself when he was little. Adrian could now walk with an aide and his legs are becoming more responsive than before. It seems that after a week he would switch to a skeletal walking aid which is something like one of the best friend of a billionaire superhero wore when he had trouble walking. Adrian would probably be reluctant to part with his awesome wheelchair but he decided he would donate it to someone who really needs it.

Adrian was never a person who really loved animals but his time inside Pandemonium somewhat changed his perception of house pets.

" I would like to have one but I would probably have no time to take care of it. If I ask mom, she would probably push the responsibilities on taking care of it on me." Adrian thought.

Adrian knows that although their house is somewhat on the quaint side but he knows that his parents were loaded because who owns a house on a hill in this day and age. They also have a number of guards stationed at the foot of the hill. His dad was almost inside his office in their house but he only goes inside like three hours a day and only goes out if his businesses need it. Her mom was the CEO of a company according to his father when they met so it means that she must have had shares in her previous company though she is a full time housewife now and is enjoying it because she would randomly say that things like " This is far easier work than what I did before." It seems his parents wanted a simple house and a simple life that they could spend their time on their family.

What Adrian wanted to know was why haven't his parents introduce him to his grandparents but he is not too bothered as his parents love was more than enough for him. Adrian also has a cousin but he treats her more on an elder sister because his parents raised her because her parents passed away a little to early. Adrian was reminiscing about his memorable times with her cousin Mina when he unexpectedly got a call from her.

" Hey, how are doing little brother? " Mina said with a cheerful tone.

" She is still as cheerful as usual." Adrian thought before he answered, " You know chilling at the backyard and stuff. I could walk with an aide so that's good news. When are you coming back home? Mom and Dad miss you."

Mina or her full name Carmina Constancio was a female beauty that embodies what you call the Oriental Beauty. She has long black hair and small face with big eyes that exudes feminine allure. Adrian's mother once told her that she would probably be a magnet for boys when she becomes a full grown adult and she did. She has a perfectly sexy body that is not thin but has a bit of muscle due to her being sporty. She was also trained by Adrian's father on anything business related which in turn made her get flying colors in college which she finished early because of her intelligence coupled with her hard work.

She is five years older than Adrian and is very protective of him. Due to her business knowledge she earned enough money that would last her until she dies due to the immense wealth she gets from her investments. She now tours the world to accomplish her dream of travelling the world and seeing new things. She has been travelling for about two years and there were only a handful of places she has not visited yet.

" I finally managed to persuade Mom and Dad to buy me the game I wanted to play. I also have been playing it for about a month. What are you up to?" Adrian said.

" Oh, just here in the Amazon right now and managed to see a bunch of scientist and planning to invest in their research since it seems promising." Mina replied.

" Jeez, you always think about increasing your revenue. You will never get married at that rate or even get a boyfriend at least." Adrian teased.

" You're lucky I am not their right now or I would have whacked your head by now. I am still young anyway. What is fun about that game you are yammering about anyway? Its just another game anyway." Mina replied.

" A game. A GAME! You dare call Pandemonium just a game! " Adrian said in a voice reminiscent of a movie character.

" Fine. It's not just a game okay so stop the acting and tell me about what you are doing inside the game." Mina said while shaking your head.

Adrian then recounted his adventures and what he achieved to Mina and about the popularity of the game. Mina wa surprised because she thought it was just like any other game that have a niche group of players playing it but it seems it exceeded her expectation. She did think that the game would do well but not astronomically well.

Mina sighed and then spoke, " I should have invested in the game when I had a chance but their investment shares is limited due to it already having about dozens of shareholders and only minor ones were available but that too was snatched up by the other countries. On the bright side, the game is very interesting and by your story, it is wide have different contents that would satisfy anyone. It is like another reality even. Tell Mom and Dad that I would return at least after two weeks since after my trip here I would like to be laid back like someone I am talking to."

Adrian nodded and told her to stay safe and call in advance so they could pick her up at the airport. They ended their call there and Adrian received a notification in his haloswatch that the update notes for Pandemonium has been posted in their official website so Adrian went to the site and read the update notes.

Pandemonium Update Notes:

1.) All Summoner Soulbounds will now be able to listen to commands more clearly and respond faster than before.

2.) Some new quests have been added.

3.) New dungeons and fields have been added.

4.) Father's day Event has been started. Please talk to the special NPC Father Bear for more details. He is only available in one location so please find him.

5.) Updated stamina bar to also decrease when hunger drops. Players will now be in a weakened state when Satiety will drop below 10. When Satiety is above 90 added stat bonus up to 5% during battle.

6.) Added new status conditions(Blinded, Mute, Deaf,etc).

Thank you for your patience and may your adventures be always great inside Pandemonium.

Adrian was not that shocked by the patch because it was mostly an upgrade in life update. At first food was mostly used as a buff mechanism because some dishes increase stats and skill damage but now players must be able to cope with the new Satiety bar that would also affect the Stamina bar. This mainly is a hard blow on physical damaging classes because some of their skills consume stamina which means if they fall below ten then their stamina would be consumed faster and they would enter a weakened state which is deadly to any player during battle.

Another noticeable thing in the patch is the Father's day event. It seems to be an event that will reward players with some good items and from the Father Bear NPC, it must have been derived from a children story. There were also new status conditions that has been added which means new skills to inflict them were added but usually skills with status conditions are mainly used by shamans since they are the ones who mainly buffs and debuffs. Overall the patch was okay in Adrian's opinion.

" The patch is probably long because they are redesigning a dungeon since Argent desolated all of it. I wonder what will happen to our game avatars? Will we be ejected out of the dungeon or be placed before the boss room? Technically we did not defeat the boss of the dungeon yet anyway." Adrian mumbled as he returned inside the house to have snacks.

Meanwhile at Atlas Inc. Headquarters....

" Deus, please run an analysis on all players that could potentially tilt or redefine the predicted story of the Undead King Quest." A handsome middle aged man said.

[Detecting.....Please wait.....done. After about a million simulation and probability calculations, there are currently four individuals who fit that category. The player undergoing the Valkyrie job change quest, Frey. The player undergoing the Dark God Envoy quest, Eldritch. The Divine archer candidate, Hou Yiwei. And lastly the Demon, Equinox]

" Huh....a new one has been added. I hope he entertains me very well." the middle aged man asked.
