More VR fighting: A New Piece of Information?

The next day, Loki was drinking some water.

[Daily Challenge 1 Completed: +5 Xp]

[500/1200 Xp]

Loki gave a small sigh, still thinking about what Daphne's parents had said the day before.

"Loki!" Daphne skipped up to him with a smile. "My parents just sent the 100 credits to you guys! The twins are going to go to the marketplace with my cousins. Do you have any plans, or can we do some VR training again?Loki noticed that the daily 10 credits had been sent to him as well and store the credits into the Inventory.

[110 credits has been stored into Inventory]

[1370 credits are in Inventory]

Loki gave a distracted hum. "Sure, why not?

As the two of them walked to the VR room, Daphne suddenly blurted out, "Are you thinking about what my parents said?"

"How did you- I thought you didn't hear them?"

"I did," Daphne sighed. "There's no point dwelling on it, though. It could mean anything, from grounding me, to firing you, to hurting someone I care about. So forget about it for now, kay?"

"Okay," Loki reluctantly sighed.

Oncen in the system, Loki immediately started fighting Level 1. After three hours, he had already fought another 17 battles and won, his Xp now at 840/1200 Xp.

{UltimateSystem has Leveled Up}

{UltimateSystem is now at Level 5}

{UltimateSystem may equip two combat boosters during battle}

{UltimateSystem may choose a basic Ability to fight with when using a weapon or fighting barehanded}

His opponent was congragulating him, but Loki didn't hear his opponent as he noticed his screen light up.

[Secret Level Up Quest Completed: +Mystery Scroll]

A scroll suddenly appeared in Loki's hand, startling his opponent.

"Hey! What was that?" Loki ignored his opponent as his eyes scanned the tittlw of the scroll and left the system, quickly informing Daphne.

Daphne brought the rest of his friends to the library where he was already waiting.

"Is there a reason why you needed to see us so quickly?" Nishan huffed. "I know it must be surprising to get these surprise quiest, but surely it can wait?"

Loki passed Daphne the scroll. "Read the tittle."

Daphne's eyes widened as she read out, 'Some informatiom about The Snakes'.

"Wait what?" Terrence looked shocked. "Why did such a thing appear suddenly?"

"I don't know, but I thought it'd be best if we read it together."

Daphne unfurled the scroll, but it wad blank. "Huh?"

"Maybe you need to touch it," Saltavore suggested. "Like this." He reached out a hand to touch the scroll, and words started appearing.

◇The Snakes has eyes and ears everywhere◇

◇The Snakes biggest supporter was the Laufeysons◇

◇The Laufeysons would give them money and goods, and in return, The Snakes do all of the Laufeysons dirty work◇

◇The Snakes would meet their Laufeyson client somewhere where the Laufeysons had used their Abilities to make sure no one knows what they are up to◇

◇When the Laufeysons died out, they found other clients◇

◇They meet in many places, but the most popular place is an area that is build out of the material that the Laufeysons had one spelled◇

◇L.B◇

"Who knew that the Laufeysons were such a big supporter?" Seraphine said to no one in particular. "And what do you think L.B stands for?"

"I don't know," Nishan sighed. "But maybe we can find out more tommorow."

"Tommorow is a school day," Terrence pointed out. "We won't have that much time."

Saltavore rubbed his neck. "Actually, our parents wanted us to come watch an Ability match tomorrow. They also want Daphne and her bodyguards to come with her."

"Ability match? Like those matches where two people fight and everyone bets on who wins?" Loki frowned. "Why?"

"They want us to see what 'real life' was like," Nishan muttered. "And they wanted you guys to 'know your place'."

"Oh well," Daphne sighed. "At least maybe we'll be able to find out more tomorrow."

"We still have classes, you know? We can't just skip them!" Seraphine protested.

"Don't worry, nerds, our parents asked the teachers to give us all the day off," Nishan rolled his eyes.

"Hey!" Seraphine said, just as the dinner bell rang. "Ugh, you're such a prick. Come on, let's get to dinner."

That night, as they were lying in bed, Loki was bombarded by Daphne mentally.

'Do you think L.B is an initial? Do you think it's someone at school? Maybe a teacher? Or someone from the higher families? Or-'

'Daphne, please, stop talking so I can sleep,' Loki groaned.

'Okay. Just so you know, you should wear some warmer clothes to the match. It might get a bit chilly tomorrow.'
