Noim Connected Worlds - Chapter 20 In Business You Can Only Say That Youve Truly Won When You Have Total Monopoly Over It.

Back when they encountered Havoc…

*Growl!* The large red wolf struggled as it tried to crawl away from Edizon and William. Blood sprayed all over the ground as the wolf tried to preserve the last bits of its life. Edizon stomped its feet at the back of the wolf preventing it from moving away. He then unsheathed his knife and threw a slash to take away the wolf’s life. But just when Edizon was about to cut the back of the wolf, William suddenly interjected.

“Wait!”

Just in the nick of time, Edizon quickly retracted his knife and looked at William with a questioning gaze. William didn’t answer and instead focused his gaze towards the wolf. Weirdly, tears fell down out of the dying wolf’s eyes as it looked back at William.

“Why are you looking at me like that? Don’t tell me that you are…”

…

Later that day.

“That wolf isn’t just data, is it?” Edizon asked in a serious tone while taking a sip of brewed coffee.

“During my previous lifetime, Bloodwolves were highly aggressive entities that were exiled and sent to our land. Although they weren’t that strong, their very fast rate of evolvement forced a number of cards from the world government.” William muttered as he reminisced the things that happened during his past life.

“Noim was made to simulate action and reaction… If that’s the case, then why is a living creature inside the game? Could it be that…” Edizon pondered as he recited the sentence William said a few days ago.

“Could it really be like that?”

…

Edizon and William continued chatting on the second floor while it’s still lively downstairs. The attention of the crew members, suddenly shifted when two ladies entered the Cafe.

*Clang* *Clang* *Clang*

The tiny bells on the door sounded as Alice and Isabella came in. A staff member immediately greeted as soon as they entered, unintentionally surprising the both of them.

“Isabella and Alice right? please proceed upstairs. The stairs are a bit high so I’ll go get someone to help carry your baggage.” The middle-aged woman explained with a smile as she pointed to the stairway.

“Can I use the restroom first?” Alice asked. She wanted to prep her self up before seeing William.

“Can we just go already?! This is a coffee shop, not a bar!” Isabella immediately understood her intentions and quickly retorted. Isabella had repeatedly warned Alice about how swayed she was with William’s actions, yet this friend of hers still wanted to take the bait.

*Chuckle*

The women chuckled before politely taking her leave. The two then proceeded upstairs…

…

“Hi…” Isabella called out as they arrived on the second floor.

“Well, the two of you look awfully tired. Hahahaha. I’m just kidding. Anyway, thank you for coming have a sit.” Edizon laughed as he noticed that the two ladies were somewhat lifeless.

“Yeah… I even feel that I trained in real life, minus the injuries of course. Isn’t it weird that even my muscles remember the moves I did inside the game?” Isabella asked for confirmation as the two of them took a sit. After training various martial arts since she was young, she’s extremely sensitive to the condition of her body, especially when it comes to how well can she execute various moves. After exiting the game, She immediately noticed how much her body and movement improved.

“I noticed that too. Anyway, aren’t your parents gonna be looking for you? It’s like 10pm already.”

“Oh, they’re gonna be living here from now on.”

“Well, that seems far-fetched… Are we gonna build a gaming studio or something? What did your parents say anyway?” William asked in a sarcastic tone. Clearly, he was not informed. it’s true that it will be more convinient if Alice and Isabella thought that they will be building a gaming studio but still, asking the two to live here from now on? This Edizon is just really too bold.

“My parents are actually okay with it, as long as they know I’m safe. They’re even planning to extend their business to Noim…” Isabella replied with a fading tone. You must be thinking that there’s a back story to it. Actually, there is.

***

Isabella talking to her mom and dad earlier…

“Mom… Dad…”

“Hey sweetie, what’s up?”

“Mom… Dad… Have you played Noim? See I was planning to start a gaming studio with my friends…”

“Sweetie you’re a smart girl, you’ve seen how big of a breakthrough the game did to the world. In fact, we are planning to extend our business in the game. Just go do something big and not just torture some random monsters. And Remember, in business, you can…”

“You can only say that you’ve truly won when you have total monopoly over it… Dad, I get it. You’ve been preaching that ever since I was grade 1.”

“Atta girl! And besides, the game actually fits your violent and hateful personality… I’m just kidding sweetie you’re still our little princess. Be sure to tell us the address where you’re gonna stay. Hahahahaha.” The couple laughed as they teased their daughter. Isabella’s parents sure know how to hit sore spots.

“Mom! Dad! I’m serious!”

“Sweetie it’s okay. We’ll always support your decisions. There’s just one thing though…” Isabella’s scalp tingled as soon as she heard this. ‘Here comes the catch’ she thought to herself. She took a deep breath and asked in a flat tone…

“What is it, dad?”

“A friend of mine, from the Yun family, will be having a celebration for the opening of the third condominium that was successfully built for Yun Real Estates. Being good friends, we naturally are invited to the event happening next month. And here’s the kicker, coincidentally, he has a son the same as your age…”

“Dad you never had a Chinese friend, he’s your business partner… Mom, can you please tell dad to stop.”

“Oh, comeone sweetie. Why don’t you just give it try? You’re already 19 and you still don’t even have one suitor, with that rough attitude of yours even with how beautiful you are…”

Isabella finally got ticked off as she blurted out…

“What do you mean by that mom? I have a suitor. And you know what? He thinks that I’m adorable.”

“Hahahahahahahahahahaha… Oh, sweetie… Ahahahahahaha… My dear, we haven’t laughed like this for years. Wahahaha”

“Tsch, Mom! Dad! It’s true!”

“Really? He said you’re adorable? Sweetie, as your parents the only thing we can say is… Marry him! Hahahahaha! Oh, I can’t breath oh… Wahahaha”

*Bang* Isabella left the room with a huge bang.

***

“Really? Your family is truly supportive. I’m kinda jealous…” Alice commented. Of course, Isabella never really told them what really happened. And yes, not even Alice knew.
