In Retirement Playing Games
Planet Earth, the year 2040, wars and national disputes are now solved through intense competitive games. To the point where countries are creating and funding teams specifically for the purpose of winning matches.
However, with this new way of battles, soldiers and special forces were no longer needed. The amount of money going into the military's defences has been reduced by 95%.
Due to these changes, once his contract was up and his age reaching that of retirement; Jose was kicked from his special force. However, time is rather cruel to those who fight on the always active battlefield.
His wife died 4 years ago, while his children have all grown up and have children of their own.
Jose waits in his house, sitting on the couch, watching the news or sport as the neverending time continues to flow. His boredom continues to grow larger and larger as his body gets weaker and weaker.
That is, until he hears about the game "Second World", one which his arrogant and disrespectful son in law plays.
That day, Jose decided to dominate the game on the new server. Rise to prominence with old comrades and crush his son in law beneath his feet.
Follow his journey through the expansive game, fighting alongside old comrades and gaining new friends along the way.

One chapter will be uploaded daily. 7 chapters a week. I have no plans to increase the number unless this gains a lot of attraction.
I'm currently a high school student in his final years. I'm doing this for enjoyment, and only once I begin to earn from it will I focus on it.

Ayo, it's the Author here. Just want to say, if you're looking for a novel entirely based in a video game, this won't be for you. This novel does have IRL parts in it, some expanding for a couple of chapters even. However, if this novel is what you're looking for, I hope you enjoyed the read. Remember, if you like it, vote for it and leave a review.
I like this novel so far, it’s really good!!!!!!!! I hate that we need to write 140 o4 something characters ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nice enjoyable read. The characters all have different personalities that seem to fuse together quite nicely. I would say this is currently levels greater than your other novel in terms of character and world-building. You don't dump chapters of information on us but rather use certain parts of information during crucial times similar to other novels. Anyway, hope you continue doing what you're doing and make sure not to overwork yourself with school and maintaining both novels have steady updaate.
NOICE, hopefully you keep this novel going consistently, wish you all the best so you don't drop it. 140 Characters is a stupid thing, this is a fricken pain in the ass AHHHHH
Very good so far. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hey there! Good day for writing! If you wanted to see whether you can get paid by distributing the current work or getting financial support by writing new work, you might want to contact geekyteddyyo@gmail.com. A brief introduction, some sample chapters or links will be appreciated when reaching out.
This is a really great story so far really hope you pick it back up. I will be moving on to the beast master book as well. Stay in good health and good spirits.
Good Stuff MATTTEEEEEEEE! Writing quality; could have some improvements but my English ain't all that good anyway. Stability of updates; I don't really care, as long as chapters are released frequently. Obviously, real life isn't that simple in which someone can easily release chapters daily. Story development; I like. Character design; I like a lot. Muscle Men and Bald Bros for life. World background; pretty good, it's basically modern with just slightly more advanced technology.
Unfinished and left behind , plenty of errors even actions that a Veteran would do, did not really make since .. Concept is good.. But the devil is in the details
Your stories are amazing keep it up I love them Ungovernable I have a great day and I will be a good time to get the same as the only thing I can
