Chapter 236: My Parents Were Gamers

I didn't stop them and they decided to order the game console. Since Tojiro and I had contacts, I decided to call him for any slot for the Reality Verse Nexus. However, it seems like there is no available Reality Verse Nexus at the moment. The one where I asked for the tattoo version to the siblings was purely coincidental.

"Don't worry Manato. I already know you wanted the Nexus version due to the 100% synchronization rate it has compared to the cabin version. But don't worry, you won't be missing much even if you use the cabin version for now. You wanna buy the cabin version?"

"Yeah. They are for my parents. They wanted to play the game."

"No problem. Tell me the address and I will let someone deliver the machines.. As for the Nexus upgrade, that would take a bit of time and I know that you know that. Even though I know what you are doing, I can't just keep on giving you freebies like last time. It was just a coincidence you and the two kids arrive while two of the Nexus were done. I am not here to help you change the future, I am just here in the background."

"I know, I know. I don't intend you to help me in any way. Don't worry, I am aware of my actions."

"Good. Now, tell me the address. I already prepared the people who will install the cabin. How many cabins are you going to buy?"

"Tw- no, make it three."

"Three huh? Alright then, just prepare the money beforehand."

I relayed the address to him and he hang up after that. He is easy going but he is a bit stern. But I am grateful that I don't need to go back to Tokyo and order. Technology sure is convenient.

We talked a bit with my parents and I shared my experiences while they are in Nagoya. But they are now more interested in the game and what I experienced in the game instead of the real-world experiences that occurred to me. Who would have thought I would make a discovery about my parents being gamers?

It took an hour before the truck that has the Reality Verse Cabin arrived. My parents didn't expect the cabin to arrive after they mentioned that they also wanted to play the game. The installation is fast and it didn't take half an hour. I paid them before they left without saying a word.

"Why did you bought three cabins? There are only two of us who will play and you already have one back in Tokyo right?"

"Nah, this one is for my roommate. That guy is pretty much helpful in the house so this would make a good gift," I said.

Although I am not sure if the guy inside the teddy bear can indeed play the game, I wanted to at least let someone try it who is not in our realm. If he can exist in this world, maybe he will also exist in the game? With magic, almost nothing is impossible nowadays.

I made the final adjustments on the cabins to make sure that they all have a comfortable gaming experience. As someone who used the machine for a long time, I am familiar with all of the functions it has to the deepest part. 

"Do you want to try the game immediately? I will try to assist the two of you once you guys are..." I was in the middle of speaking when my father stopped me.

"Hush, Manato. I know you don't mean ill will but as gamers, we wanted to experience things on our own. We might be old but we know many things regarding games and MMOs. Don't worry, we will be fine. Just give us your username and we will add you as friends once we are done with the tutorial."

After that, the two closed the cabin and logged in to the game. I was left speechless by them. They were quick with the uptake so I am left baffled. However, I am fine with that. That way, they don't need to keep on asking about this and that. They can learn things all by themselves.

After my parents were already in the game, I went to the teddy bear and this time, he is resting which is a first for me.

"Hey, I bought you a console for gaming to dive the VR. Do you know what it was?"

The head of the teddy bear looked at me. Since I don't see any expression or voice reaction, I don't have the slightest idea what he was thinking. Even though it was like that, I still explained it to him and even though he didn't give any reaction, I still continue to explain things to him. After the explanation, I also give him the direction on where to access it. I know he is a ghost but there might be a chance that things might be different.

Since he didn't react at all, I left and went to my bedroom, and logged in to the game. With so many things to do, I have to finish them one by one as soon as I can.

...

When Manato left the room where the teddy bear was resting, he didn't make a sound but he stood up and followed the directions of Manato to the cabin. Beside the cabin that was vacant, the two are currently in operation. The teddy bear tried to peer in the glass to see who was inside the cabins but he can't check it for some unknown reason.

Seeing the cabin, his curiosity gets the most of him and after hearing some of the information of the young man who suddenly started living with him after they exchange fists, now, along with his family, he seems to be on the edge whether to try things out.

He might be a soul right now but with the help of the teddy bear, he can function like a normal human without any problem. But this is a machine. Will his soul detect him if he is a machine?

The cabin was big enough to fit him and the teddy bear. It was kinda awkward but he decided to enter with the teddy bear to the cabin. He is no longer comfortable moving out from that "body" of his so he is not sure whether it will work. He was then surprised when the cabin started scanning his body or to be precise, the body of the teddy bear.

I logged back into the game. Since the first raid is done, the end result was expected. Most of my armor parts are completely broken, the pants I am wearing are almost ready to reduce itself to dust. Thankfully, with the excess equipment from the drops, I decided to use those drops as temporary means to replace my equipment as I am in the process of making my very own equipment. Since the materials needed are still lacking, alternatives will always be needed to be there just to complete things.

The armor I got from the raid is a level 100 Magic Knight armor. It got some good stats for a Very Rare. It's too bad it is not labeled as Unique. If it was, this would be a different case.

[Flame Feathered Armor of Black]

Type: Armor Equipment

Rarity: Very Rare

Equippable at: Level 100

Equippable by: Magic Knight, Versatile

AGI: 120

DEX: 74

END: 152

INT: 39

Exclusive passive skill:

Flame Absorber: Fire-type attacks received from enemies will have a 10% chance to be converted into healing. Chances to trigger every 20 seconds.

Info:  A cloth armor that was made from the feathers of the Flame Cockatrice, a creature that feeds and lives in flames. Even though it no longer retains the same function a normal Flame Cockatrice feather does, it is still possible to feel its protection against the flames coming from the enemies.

Note: Which is heavier, the 1kg feather or 1kg cotton?

Durability: 2000/2000

The exclusive passive skill is pretty good and although this is a bit more like a passive that relies on chances, it is pretty good nonetheless. The stats are good too since most of the stats of the armor cover all of the basic stats of a player. It might not have the stat needed to increase strength but it is pretty good regardless.

After unequipping the old armor, I don the new armor, and honestly, I was surprised, the armor looked good to me. It also feels warm and comfy. For the pants, there aren't any available from the drops so all I can do is use the spare pants that were dropped from a monster, and honestly, it was a big letdown. Since leathermaking is related to sewing, maybe I should take the Tailor Ex Job too in the future.
