Chapter 114: Dropping Bombs

Mom is carrying Marcus as she climbs the staircase to the high floor they are staying on. Even now she is still trying to make his life a little easier. While this skyscraper is a good place to be, these stairs are going to prove a problem. "When we get back up to the room I want to tell them the plan, everyone is going. I'll make sure you guys gain levels faster then others will, that way you guys can fend for yourselves." I direct my order to mom, but she is still not being flexible. I'll be taking all of them with and if I have to drag her along then so be it. I'm not going to wait for an answer from her, so I'll just focus on other things right now. Mainly the people that I killed in the park, they will go to soone stronger for help. They cant help themselves, when people like them form a grudge its really hard for them to let it go.

I don't bla them either. I would have been pretty pissed if I was taken out like that, I'll have to keep my guard up for awhile. I don't know the power structure in this city. I don't know who's in charge or where they are staying. This city is also huge, millions of players are staying here and if I want to find soone specific its like a needle in a haystack. Being a solo player has its downsides, but they are too few for to be complaining. I'm going to wait until sothing actually happens, waiting for trouble to co to isn't what I normally do. In this situation its the best move possible, and reacting to an attack will prove dangerous without knowing who is after . So if I don't want to endanger my family then staying away from them for awhile is a good idea. I'm likely the only target.

We make it to the top floor and walk to our room. I look inside as I enter and see that both Hailey and dad are sitting up on there own, they are recovering good. Mom sets Marcus down and rushes to the side of her husband. "You're supposed to be resting. I'm not letting you do anything till you can move on your own." My mom looks at as she says that last part, declare all you want mom. They will be joining in the dungeons along with you. "Just lay back down and I'll change your bandages." They do as she says and relax, I'll let her baby them for now. I still have things I need to think about, mainly how long I'm going to be stuck on this continent away from my missions. My family is my top priority, but staying here for an extended period of ti will be a stigma in the long run.

Powering up my family to the point they are strong enough to defend themselves is the first thing on the list. In all honesty I don't have to stick around after that, and while they might resent for leaving during such a hard ti I also need to continue growing. I feel like scum with the thought of just leaving them after I make them stronger, and in truth I would be. The only one who might understand is Hailey, because when she is strong she will leave to go on her own as well. Helping the players fix the teleportation grid is noble, but that isn't sothing I'm going to do. In the end all it will do is save everyone else ti and waste mine. There could be unique rewards, but nothing that I could actually need. So my mind is made up with everything available, I'm heading back to my original continent after I help my family.

I sit down as they continue to talk to each other, and while they are all smiles I'm going to have to bring the mood down. "I'm leaving after I help you guys level up in the dungeons." Those words instantly silent everyone. My mom goes red in the face with anger, and as she is about to start screaming my dad stops her. He give a look to continue. "When the dungeons are opened around here and you guys finish healing I'll power level you guys. When I finish getting you stronger I'm heading out." I look at my mom to see her face and all I can see is hurt and betrayal. I don't like this, but I also need to do what's in my best interests too. If that ans I have to hurt my families feelings then fine.

My mom is about to start yelling at , but she is interrupted before she can start. My sister says sothing that surprises , but isn't out of her character. "I want you to take with you!" My mom looks at my sister with fury. I look at my sister and I see the determination in her eyes, she wants to get back to what she was doing before this happened. I bet she was close to getting the legendary class, and if she wants that who am I to say no. I'll give her a ride on my way back. I look at my dad and see that he is also hurt by this news. If there was soone he didn't want going it would be his little girl. Marcus looks confused and scared, his family is in a very tense situation right now. I would be the sa way if I was his age.

I look to mom and I've never seen her so mad at before. Nobody is going to interrupt her this ti and I should just let her get any anger she has out of her system. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU AN YOU'RE LEAVING!!!! IF YOU THINK I'M GOING TO LET YOU LEAVE THEN YOU NEED TO GET YOUR FUCKING HEAD CHECKED!!!! I WILL NOT LET YOU LEAVE AND I WILL NOT LET YOU TAKE MY FAMILY INTO THE DUNGEONS!!!!" I cringe as she screams her response at , and I'm a little surprised she actually cussed. Mom is usually pretty good at not cussing, and that just goes to show how mad she is at . I watch her take deep breaths, and try to calm down. She must think she won with that explosion, I'm going to have to disappoint her.

I stand up and make my way to the exit of the room, giving mom so ti to work through this is a good idea. I turn my head around towards my sister. "When we are done with power leveling I'll take you with . I'll be back after the dungeons arrive to collect you guys, be ready alright." My sister gives a determined nod, but my moms face contorts in rage and anger. I make a quick exit as a rock flies by my head. This is going to be a tough pill for my mom to swallow, and giving them space to work it out is the smartest move. I hear my dads muffled voice followed my mothers angry screams, I wouldn't want to be stuck in their positions right now. Now that I have free ti I can start asking around for information I don't have.

The best place to ask questions would probably be the place with the most players. Around here that would be the park I killed those guys at, so I'm returning to the scene of the proverbial cri. I hope people are willing to answer so questions after what they say earlier. I make my way down the long stairway once again. After so ti I make it to the lobby of the building and head outside. Ti to head to the park. It takes the sa amount of ti to get there as it did last ti, and when I arrive there are plenty of people around. I make my way into the park and people begin to recognize . They do what I expect so to do and that's steer clear of . On the other hand it looks like many are avoiding , too many.

I make it deeper into the crowd and I hear a voice I'm unfamiliar with. "Looks like you ca to instead of having to find you. I got to say I'm surprised those guys got killed by soone who doesn't even have a shirt, but that sword you have looks really gnarly." I turn to the voice and see a man with great gear, and he also has so people to his left and right. I get the feeling that I have so sort of bounty on my head. "Don't take this personal kid. I'm just doing what I'm getting paid to do." I was going to try to talk my way out of this, but looks like that wont be happening. This event has really ssed people up, and if I ever see those guys from earlier again I'll make sure its slow and painful instead of quick.
