The Immortal Player

Chapter 49: University Announcement Conclusion!



"Eeeeeeeeeehh..." Pedro, Aldo, and Loren were so astounded that they made a surprised expression like a truck was about to hit them at full speed.

'Are they planning to cause us trouble?' Sabrina was shocked but her face had a frown on her face as she assumes that Charlotte and Elisabeth were scheming something bad.

The whole university arena turned silent as Dr. Cristoval facepalmed himself.

'These brats really know how to anger their grandfather!'

"Hah... Ehm... You two, can't you reconsider joining other gr..." Dr. Cristoval took up the microphone and approached them but before he could finish his request for reconsideration he was interrupted by the two.

"I AM ALREADY DECIDED!" Charlotte and Elisabeth simultaneously glanced to the approaching Dr. Cristoval, filled with determination and confidence.

"Please don't be hasty and reconsider!" Victor stood from his seat and approached Pedro's group and the two while wearing a smug.

"And who are you?" Charlotte and Elisabeth stared at him with ridicule like saying 'Keep out of this mess, you pebble!'

"I am Victor... Would anyone of you like to join my group? We somehow got our hands into few Closed beta information, unlike this trash group who would want to leech the hell out from you!" He removed his shades and stares his eyes mockingly to Pedro's group.

"F@@k off!" Charlotte gestured in an irritated manner that triggered her 'fans' and imitated her 'shoo' gesture.

"Shoo!" Elisabeth joined Charlotte's fans and gestured to Victor to go away.

"Tsk!" Victor's confident smug was replaced with a frown as he gave Pedro's group a death stare.

'Just you wait... Seven in a group? So what! We had the support of three companies!' He walked back to his seat with a flounce.

...

'Serves you right!' Lukas smirked as he saw Victor be humiliated in front of a large crowd.

...

"Grandpa! You said we can choose any group we want even if it exceeds the group limit?" Charlotte starts to become irritated as she stares at Dr. Cristoval.

'These brats... Ha! You're lucky I'm already old and must avoid being stressed! Else, both of you would be punished and I won't take it lightly!' Dr. Cristoval shook his head as he walks back to the podium.

"Ehm... It is final, then! That's all for today! Young ones... Lowland University has high expectations from you! Give your best and give glory to our school!" Dr. Cristoval placed the microphone to the Podium and slowly walked back to the nearest exit where other university administrators were waiting.

When Dr. Cristoval left, the lights that were focused on then the center of the arena turned off. The black elevated stage glowed blue. They were awed by the amazing view. Pedro and Aldo acted like gentlemen and gave their seats to Charlotte and Elisabeth. Pedro stood while Aldo sat on the ground on the left side of Ashley.

After a few seconds, the glowing light started to rise like a night in grassland where the moon was high up in the sky and fireflies help the moon, light up the darkness. Suddenly, a holographic faded logo of 'TBO' slowly became clear. The whole area setting slowly became clear as the logo vanished.

It was in a forest in the middle of the night, where the moon and fireflies light it up. It showed three people, one driving the carriage while the other two escorted it outside. Suddenly, the driver halted the carriage as pairs of red eyes, started to appear around them. It slowly moves towards them until it was illuminated and were identified as wolves.

The driver hopped down the carriage and lifted his sword. He sliced through the wolves as blood splattered and filled the holographic view. As the blood subsides down, a new scene was shown. This continued for minutes until a shot from each scene that looked like a printed photo was shown to four sides and stacked up to the center of the arena.

When the last Photo was stacked the hologram showed a four-sided 3D screen facing each side of the arena. The scene played was a first-person point of view. The person walks towards the edge of a cliff and the view of the beautiful sunset by the sea awed everyone in the arena. The night rising complimented the setting sun and the blue and violet glowing crystals that were embedded in the walls of the kingdom by the sea. It was no other than Pedro's point of view the moment he got a glimpse of the beautiful view of Naga Kingdom.

'I submitted a captured video as required to the Closed Beta Players, CBP, but I didn't think It would get that spotlight!' Pedro chuckled as he reminisces the beautiful event.

'I must return there one more time!'

The game name "Bearth Online" slowly appeared. Moments later the hologram was turned off and the arena was filled with darkness. Dim lights were opened one by one in the arena and the students erupted.

"Woooooooooooooo!"

"Awesome!"

"What a nice game!"

"I can't wait for tonight!"

"Bearth Online!"

"Bearth Online!"

"Bearth Online!"

...

The shouting players were calmed when someone spoke in the microphone.

"Ehm... Calm down! Calm down! Instructions and other information would be posted on the university website in two days. Since your everyone was still about to start at level one the starting data needed to know your progress are all the same and there was no need to record them! If you had any other questions refer to your assigned professors! Good day! Dismissed!" The same middle-aged Filipino man wearing a black suit stood at the podium and left after he finished speaking.

...

"At last! It is all over! Time to go home!" Aldo carried his bag and turned hastily towards the exit.

"Where do you think you are going?" Pedro pulled a handle on Aldo's bag and stopped him.

"Eh? Home?" Aldo pointed towards the exit as he glances to Pedro in an explaining look.

"We'll have a group meeting! It is very important and it won't take long!" Pedro glanced to their groupmates who were sitting.

"It's good to now that you're not just someone who is all talk!" Ashley stood in an impressed manner and glances to their group.

"Well, then... Let's look for a place to talk!" Pedro walked towards the exit as the other members of his group followed behind, even the unwilling Aldo.
