Lost In Time

A long time had passed since those two had faced each other.

After leaving the Inbox City, Jung had to wait for HugeP to arrive, and his waiting finally ended.

The player no longer looked like a lanky kid.

He projected confidence through the courage to act and speak his mind.

Standing before Jung, he bowed his head and said, "We meet again, sir."

There were waves of players behind him.

He made a guild and brought them to meet the famous Balatro, the man who was their true overlord.

Jung glanced at HugeP and then at the players the man had selected.

'Damn, that's a lot,' he thought.

The entire street became two times as crowded.

All the other players were nowhere to be seen, as if HugeP and his crew drove them away.

"It's good to see you," Jung said. "I'm proud of the progress you made."

"It's thanks to you," the boy answered.

He was a Tier V hero, a rank that no other player bore.
