"hm?" Wilder's eyes snapped open.
"Why do I feel so sore?" Wilder asked himself, right now, he was inside the gravity room laying on his back; that could be the reason for his soreness.
He had slept in a gravity room while the gravity was still on, and it was enough to make anyone feel sore all over their body.
He tried to move his arm, but it seemed stuck for some reason. He then proceeded to turn his neck and look over, but was met with the face of a lady.
"ah?" Some shock appeared on Wilder's face as he saw this person who had her head on his chest.
It was Anya.
Her hair was messy, and she was unclothed.
After a brief moment of shock, it all started coming to Wilder. He started remembering what had happened the previous night.
He and Anya did something unspeakable.
And they did it at her mom's house.
"Shit" Wilder rubbed his hand over his face; he had let himself get carried away by Anya.
He was a guy; it was normal for him, but Anya was a lady; she would definitely go bonkers when she woke up.
Reasoning all that, Wilder slowly slipped away from the sleeping Anya without waking her up, and he then tip-toed out of the gravity room.
He put on his clothes and walked up the stairs cautiously.
He didn't know if Anya's mother had come back from work, so he had to be very quiet; if not, this whole situation would be turned on its head.
But luckily, he didn't see any signs of her coming home the previous night, so he made his way to the front door.
"Ah!" Wilder took a deep breath upon getting out of the house. Now he stood in front of the door and observed his surroundings.
It was only now that it hit him.
He didn't have a way to get home, and this was a part of the city he wasn't familiar with. He was trapped.
Would he have to run all the way to the TRT dorms on the other side of the city? Even though he was at the enhanced human stage now, wouldn't that be too exhausting?
As Wilder was thinking of all this, his eyes slightly drifted to the side of the house.
There was a garage.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"vroommm!!!" Not long after Wilder got on the road
Inside the garage was a motorcycle. It looked bulky like a military-type motorcycle, but there was no emblem on it identifying it with any of the militaries in the city, so Wilder just assumed that it was probably Anya's.
He couldn't take her car because the security was crazy, but the motorcycle was easily accessed; he just needed to hotwire it, and it was done.
When he was on earth, things like these were taught to by his father, at least until the old man passed away.
that was his real father, the one he had before going to the immortal world
Wilder even wondered if the old man's grave was still here a thousand years later.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Click," the sound of a door opening, sounded inside a dimly lit hall.
From behind the door, Wilder stepped into the hall.
He had finally made his way here from Anya's house. It was actually quite easy getting to this place from Anya's home with the help of the bike and the system.
"hey!! I've been looking for you for a while." From in front of Wilder, a voice resounded.
Inside the hallway were three people.
One adult and two teens were present; the adult had a TRT-issued badge hanging from his neck, so it was easy to identify that he was an administrator.
"what?" Wilder stopped near his door and asked
Hearing this, the TRT admin frowned.
Wilder's tone was a bit too much, but he knew that Wilder had attained some sort of special status in the academy, so his pompousness had some ground.
"These two are William Tirun and Leon Tirun from the Tirun group," the administrator explained to Wilder.
The Tirun company was a small group that specialized in manufacturing vehicle parts, so they had a bit of influence. Though they couldn't be referred to as the most prominent group, they still had a good amount of clout.
And judging by their surnames, they were probably related to the owners of the Tirun group.
"okay?" Wilder seemed a bit impatient.
They had just stopped him on his way to his room; it was rude, and he had things to do, so of course he was impatient.
"Hmm," hearing the impatience in Wilder's voice, the administrator frowned at him.
He thought that Wilder was quite full of himself.
"I heard that you're still in Jade Beast Town; I want you to carry them till they get to warrior rank," the admin said with a big smile on his face.
"Don't worry, you will be compensated properly. What do you think about 20,000 credits?" The administrator pulled out a wad of cash and showed it to Wilder.
20,000 credits was a lot, especially for someone like Wilder who was from a poor background. The administration knew that Wilder couldn't survive with only the cash allocated by the TRT scholarship fund.
After all, he was young and needed other sources of income.
Wilder would be out of his mind to reject such a generous offer.
But
"Pass"
Wilder's voice sounded, and the next thing that could be heard was the slamming of a door.
"boom"
This left the admin at a loss for words.
Wilder didn't seem to even take his offer into consideration; even the Tirun brothers didn't seem happy; Wilder's refusal was like a slap on their face.
Were they so untalented that he wouldn't even help them for 20,000 credits?
"Hey, wait!" the administrator shouted abruptly.
The Tirun brothers had turned around to leave all of a sudden, not bothering with the admin.
Meanwhile, Wilder had just stepped into his dorm room.
"20,000 hmp!!" Wilder couldn't help but sneer.
It wasn't that the cash wasn't valuable; it just didn't catch his eye. With all the dinner parties Wilder had been invited to the past few days, he had received gifts that far exceeded that.
Plus, Wilder had something else that was bothering him.
His dorm room in the TRT building was already too well known; Liam's mother had kidnapped him from here, and the admin appeared out of nowhere and started asking for favors. It was getting too much.
He didn't even have time to log into High Heaven anymore.
"And there's still Anya," Wilder thought.
When Anya wakes up from her slumber, she will definitely come looking for him after what happened at her house.
He needed to find a new place.
Though that wasn't a priority, right now he needed to sort something out in the game.
Wilder took a bath and put on some fresh clothes, then went into the gaming cabin.
*This is high heaven.
