Temporal Pearls

"Seth was one of the unfortunate to be killed by the Crodo Beasts. But his situation got worse for some reason. From what I was told, Joseph was inspecting their Cabin wh he noticed that they were all using abnormal amounts of ergy."

"But wh he inferred the voltage from the house, there was no change to the Meter. Since the cabins are new and not everything was known about them he thought maybe they are on a battlefield. It had happed before. But, Seth's situation was differt, about t minutes before the d of Six hours, his Cabin blared a warning alert."

"It said that Seth needed more Nutrition Solutions and he is in critical condition. Since he was using a G Rank solution, Joseph took another G Rank and began to load it."

"The cabin rejected it. It demanded F or E Rank. That was weird, because, in the instructions, it says one has to start with G and finish it before F./He called Agt Raaz and asked him, and he was told to give Seth's cabin the D rank. That is wh Seth's body stats stabilize."

"One thing was, Seth spt another two hours before coming out and his body became emaciated to the point he was only bones!"

Sarah, Seth's mother, explained to the doctor that the Game Company st. It had be three days since that incidt and Seth was still in a coma.

The news was that it was not Seth alone that met with accidts, but many others. There was rumoured that some cabins ev caught on fire. Though, the authority died that.

"I'm sorry, Madam Sarah. Joseph's quick wits did save Seth from life-threating situations. And based on our reading we believe he will have a complete recovery in just weeks. Just bear with us." The doctor explained before he added,

"The thing is, It was a unique phomon we did not anticipate. But Soon ough, they will release an official statemt. I have insider information. I overheard that they are going to close the game completely since it can danger people's lives!"

"That will be for the better." Sarah concur.

The situation with Seth did happ elsewhere. The differce was why it happed. There was a warning by the Game Quest about severe consequces of death on "their" hand.

Their hand means "Crodo!"

So those that were killed by the Crodo experice the same accidts and some worse! As for Seth, it was the initial absorption of the Temporal Pearl that caused him that!

Wh Raaz heard about it, he rushed to their home and met up with Joseph wh he was putting in an additional E Rank but he stopped him and picked from Anna's A-Rank solution and put it inside the Cabin, that is what stabilized Seth!

Since he came ready and had bad hypotheses about the reason for Seth Cabin's condition, he dismantled the cabin without affecting its function.

Oping the Core of the VR Cabin Engine he was scared shitless. Raaz almost screamed as he gazed at the five glowing TEIC.

'This wasn't supposed to start happing!'

He quickly stood and dismantled Seth's Cabin Transmission Signal. That will stop the cabin from sding Seth's true conditions.

TEIC stands for...

Terran Energy Isolation Chamber!

He ran to Anna's Cabin and did the same. But in her cabin, there were only two TEICs and they were not showing any signs of glowing.

He took out one of her TEICs and took two off Seth's cabin TEIC and replaced it with Anna's TEIC. It was th that Seth's cabin stabilized completely.

Two things save Seth...

A-Rank Nutrit Solution and Bronze Rank TEIC That Raaz switched.

VR Cabins were divided into two. By Number Rank and Name Rank.

Number Rank consists of Rank to 5. Name Rank includes Iron and Bronze Rank.

That was what the public knew.

Number Rank distinction was in-game Character Control, Perception in the game world and Invtory. The higher the rank the better the realism and control of the in-game character.

Rank has only one Invtory in their Character while rank 5 has sev invtory on their character.

There were other perks such as Rank will never have a Class in-game but Rank to 4 can, with limited restrictions. Only rank 5 can have any kind of class.

That was what the public knew.

The truth of it was the number of Terran Energy Isolation Chambers in the Cabin

Rank has a single TEIC, and the number increases with rank. That means Rank 5 has 5 TEIC.

The Iron Rank Cabin has a single TEIC but the magnitude was One hundred times more than a single TEIC in the Rank 5 Cabin. And also, Bronze has two of those.

Currtly, the world wanted to make Silver Rank but the materials and the procedure were still a problem.

Apart from TIEC, there was not much differce betwe Rank to 4 as it was a matter of Computer Programming.  A great hacker and gineer that can crack the Tech can upgrade Rank Cabin to Rank 4 Cabin. The only limiting factor was the number of TEIC which the upgraded version will not have!

For Seth to be able to activate and made five Terran Energy Isolation Chamber filled with ergy was insane.

Raaz calmed down and thought about the briefing he had be to. He knew partially the truth about these cabins!

The champions were not game titles but real life. In the future, there was a prediction that the world would rely on them because they were believed to be able to gerate Terran Energy which will be the World's New Source of Power.

To him it sounds absurd, people playing games and yet gerating ergy through that. Since he has se it once, and now he is seeing it, he believes it.

Th a problem arises, Seth will be in danger.  If he can gerate Terran Energy now wh things have not ev started, what will happ, wh shit begins to happ.

Should he protect him or not?

Raaz was in a dilemma. The momt he reports him, Seth will be tak away. Yes, he will get money and all. But was that the right thing to do?

Raaz knew a thing or two about the reality of these things. Seth may not get to help his own country. Yes, the Behemoth of the world will come for him for themselves.

"He belongs to Ni and he will stay with Ni!" Raaz steeled his resolve.
