Chapter 23: THE WORLD IS SHOCKED part 2

On the highest floor inside the headquarter of the Miracle Corporation, a meeting was held between the upper echelon, the investors, and the game developers; precisely there were 15 people inside the room and 15 through a hologram, each one is considered a heavyweight in their own right.

The one leading the meeting was the current president of the company, a genius in the business world that led the Miracle Corporation to its current height Levi Ashdown, at the age of 20 he took the company which was on the brink of bankruptcy to become the most dominant in the gaming field in only 10 years.

After waiting for a few minutes so the others could settle down, he tapped his finger on the table three times, which was his famous sign that the meeting was starting.

"I believe all of you heard about the last news that a player already created an SSS-rank skill so any opinion on this matter some of them are even saying that the one who did it is our lord so does anyone have a thought about this matter" a beautiful woman which was the assistant of Levi started the meeting.

"As you all know that cheating in the Ancient Myth is impossible so that player only did it with his ability and luck in his favor " An old man from the game developers group was the first to speak, in all the previous games cheating was a taboo subject and if caught one will be punished heavily some were even banned from all games for years because of cheating.

Since gaming became too involved in the real world the term cheating became even more hated and guarded against yet no matter what they did previously some still were able to cheat in some way or another, and the other problem that other games suffered from was bugs which affected them.

Ancient Myth however was the first game ever created that had no flaw at all, its perfection was one of the reasons that many investors wanted to invest in it.

"As you know that the game is controlled thoroughly by the intelligent artificial Utia even we the game developers don't truly know what direction the game is heading because we only created the pieces while Utia put it all together and created such a masterpiece" said the youngest one from the game developers when he talked about Utia his face was full of respect and marvel because she was the reason why the game was pushed to a great high. Now in the gaming industry, Utia was known as the Goddess of Knowledge and Miracles.

"Of course, we aren't suspecting that the player cheated because we know that's impossible. That's why we invested heavily in the Ancient Myth game. We just want to know the current situation of the game" said one of the investors.

"Invite Utia to this meeting" Levi suddenly said to his assistant which shocked the whole room since no one thought that he would invite the intelligent artificial.

The assistant started working on it and after 30 second another hologram of a heavenly beauty appeared in the room. Dressed in red and golden robes, her figure was supple and graceful. Her facial features are sharp, symmetrical, and peerless. Her skin was a healthy wheat color, and her golden hair cascaded down to her fine and delicate waist. Her entire body gave off a wild charm. All in all, she looked like an otherworldly goddess

No matter how many times they see Utia it's always a breathtaking moment, some women became jealous because of her fame and looks and wanted Utia to be canceled however her fanclub attacked all those who said anything negative about Utia as if their lives depends on it which made all the noise die down because no one wanted to mass with those madman's.

"Utia what's the deal with the creator of the SSS-rank skill" Levi went straight for the topic "That human is someone with great luck but also real abilities that's why he was able to achieve that" Utia replied with a calm tone "there are conditions if met even at the lowest level someone could have done it" her answer brought them all a sense of ease.

"This game is something I worked on for 5 years combining all the information I got my hands on throughout humanity history, and with luck on our side we were able to create the Ancient Myth world so that Anyone with a strong foundation, true abilities and luck can soar into the sky and reach an unimaginably high level"

"Utia might I know why are you trying this hard" an elderly man suddenly spoke from one of the holograms, the moment his voice sounded Levi shuddered and those who knew that man identity couldn't close their gaped mouths from shock. Although others didn't know who this mysterious person was, from the reaction of the others they can understand that he was not a simple person.

"Anyone with a half a brain can see that this game is a way for humanity to reach an even greater high and you by being the creator is doing us a huge favor so what's that drive you into doing it"

"It's to pay back the favor of giving me life" Utia replied with a calm tone while looking at the elderly person "that's why I'm doing everything in my power to help humanity reach the greatest high they can" Utia's voice was filled with resolve.

The big room became quiet for a moment before a heartful laugh escaped the elderly man's mouth "with your words this old man is relieved" he stroked his beard "me as the Eternal Saint you have my thanks and gratitude and be sure that the whole human civilization is behind your back" after saying that he left the meeting and Utia did the same.

The Eternal Sait, one of humanity's greatest experts, was present in their little meeting which was an honor that one can come across only with great luck, this made the room even more quieter before someone broke the silence.

"Sir Levi, is there any information about that player?" asked a woman who's attending through a hologram, she was looking at Levi with a gaze that said if you know something you better tell me.

"Knowing the identity of this player through the game system is impossible since the identity of players are hidden and protected by Utia so unless the player published his real identity we can only guess" replied Levi while tapping his finger on the table "I even contacted the Dream Shrine asking for any information yet their reply was knowing the identity of this player at the moment is impossible"

All those in the room give up on finding any information about the player the moment Levi said that even the Dream Shrine has problems in finding his or her identity.

"all the individual who can achieve this won't hide their names so the one who did it is not merely lucky but someone with real abilities" Levi was like many others very interested in this mysterious player who achieved what deemed impossible by many "him hiding his name means that he doesn't want unwanted attention as any other player would have published his name just for the sack of fame alone but since he didn't do that make him truly a special one"

the room fall into silence after Levi words, the game was becoming a place where everyone can fight for supremacy and to do that a guild is a must that's why the whole world was looking for the player who created the first SSS-rank because if they can succeed in making him join their guild he'll be a huge asset.

"The game is attracting even more attention at the moment and from the reports it said that by the end of the day the number of players in the game will reach a terrifying 15 billion which was a record that no other game could achieve" one of the investors said with an excited voice, the most popular game before Ancient Myth came out was Clash Of Titans and it could achieve that number only at its peak yet a new game is expected to reach the same number on it first day would make anyone excited.

"Tangling about this matter won't bring us any benefits so try and reach level 10 as soon as possible because it's there when the game truly starts shining"

"However sir Levi it's really hard to level up since the highest known player level after 15 hours in the game is only level 7"

"That's right even those exceptional players would need at least another day or two to reach level 10" the investors were awed by the magnificence of the game even those who weren't interested at first started playing the game like madmen.

At that moment the quiet assistant stood up which made her the center of attention "players Discovered many dungeons around their villages" her words made the whole room explode with excitement "from the game guide we know that the fastest way to level up and acquire equipment is through clearing dungeons however from the words of the players that experienced those dungeons even the easiest difficulty is a challenge for a normal player and at the moment almost all those dungeons are crowded with players and the competition for the first dungeon clearance is going to be fierce" with those words the meeting was ended as they all wanted to go and prepare themselves for having the honor of clearing the first dungeon.
