Decision 1
Just as everyone was about to panic because of Mazet's 'friendly' reminder, 2 blue fluorescent lights flashed into the 2 vacant seats.
Everyone instantly became alert, but that didn't change the fact that they were stuck in their seat!
Slowly the two figures started to be revealed by the remnants of the light. In one of the seats lied a boy that looked about twelve years old. He had a slightly chubby face, dark blue hair, cute freckles sprinkled around the bridge of his nose and large round light blue eyes that shone with wisdom that was way beyond his years.
He had his legs on the table like it was a footrest, looking like a mini boss.
On the other end of the table was woman with hazel brown hair, fair skin,freckles on and around the bridge of her nose and light green eyes that shone with authority.
Yes.
It was Andrea and Cloud!
They had redirected their minds to this very room and now control whether they leave or not.
But, they would not dare to because of their special backgrounds, other than Dan and Shaun of course.
"We have brought you all here today to bring some very important information to your attention and a proposition to bring to the table that you won't be able to refuse, this is not a threat." Andrea said. In the middle of the sentence she realised that she was being to overbearing and threatening so she added that little bit of assurance at the end.
"We would like you, even though you already have signed one, sign another non-disclosure agreement. Just to be sure.
Soon another non-disclosure agreement appeared in front of them, and the contents was shocking and very forceful.
=====
By signing this non-disclosure agreement, you agree that anything said and seen in this room will not be to any third parties, and only to be discussed, in a private place, with others in this room.
In the unfortunate case that the signer fails to comply with these regulations, the touchless in their head will blow up in the signers skull and the skull of all those that have been told this information, therefore stopping all leakage.
Have a nice day,
Signed
Era

(AN: If they sign this then they are definitely all masochists!)
Everyone was speechless.
What the heck is this contract!
Short and merciless.
No need for massive text and accidental loopholes, with Era's level of technology, who needs it when you could just instantly blow up someones head!
The reason why they have not told this feature to the public is that they would not buy it if they knew there was a bomb in their heads!
Who would!?
Everyone, curious and frightened about what brought Era on to decide to use such a contract, signed.
Cloud after getting confirmation from Andrea, told them about their situation but instead of telling them about the uncontrollable Staircase of Talent, they told them that it was that they met the minimum requirements to start a gene mutating process so they did it whilst they while they were in the test and all they needed to know what talents they wanted.
After telling them this, Cloud had fallen prey to some very sceptical looks so he looked at Andrea for permission before telling them about the 'special existences' that came to their world once upon a time.
After seeing that they didn't believe them still, Andrea had to expose her only skill to convince them about the Talents manifesting.
And after some rigorous testing, the group of young adults started to slowly give in.
All of them were not idiots and knew that they had lied a bit but after observation they started to believe that at least the talents and bloodline sharing stuff was true so they didn't show any hostility to them.
"Now to the main point of this whole meetup." Andrea, after slowly coaxing these young adults started to get to the point of this temporary kidnapping.
"We Era, have decided to reward you with some things, some, not available to the current player base until they reach level 1000.
We just want you to do one thing. Not tell anybody about the Talents that have manifested in your bodies. We do not want the world to be turned on its head because of skills that you have shown of to your friends. We can't restrict this as the talents are your powers so we can only ask, and we'll reward you for cooperating." Andrea was really sincere, showing her helplessness in the situation and everyone sympathised with her.
"Okay, I'll tell you the rewards and after i've finished you can decide on your answer.
So the first bombshell that we are telling you, for free, is that the 1000 level mark to leave the boundaries of the starting map; in the actual limitless word it's only equivalent to ten levels."
Everyone in the room was in mild shock except two people.
As most of the people in the room don't properly know the world of limitless so they are just shocked by the numbers but Dan and Shaun are utterly dumbfounded.
It took the world 10 whole years to advance to just level five! What in the world!
Shaun is just as dumbfounded. As a veteran player he knew, even though he played casually, how tough it was for the world's player base to advance to their current stage and to just be told that the very majestic 5 main continents are just beginner villages and islands?
He just wants to go home and cry!
It is absolutely ridiculous!
