Chapter 188 - Tomorrow Another Challenge Awaits.
A white-haired figure with an oversized winter jacket appeared from the dark forest. His face showed initial excitement of having a successful testing session, but also exhaustion started catching up.
It was mostly mental exhaustion.
He started the day with his stream and felt very nervous because of it, which made him already exhausted for not trying to embarrass himself.
Next, he went to the building, Game Lord\'s Mysteries, and met with Loki there.
He managed to win his opponent and lastly won the competition. That also brought him to the edge of the exhaustion after being so near death, but he survived.
Isaac also remembered the scene of him almost dying to Loki; even though he didn\'t see him attacking, but he knew that his death wasn\'t far away.
After he left the Game Lord\'s Mysteries, he ended up at Forest of Unknown, and that\'s where the trouble appeared.
With not-so-great luck, he got teleported at the edge of the Outer Area, and he wasn\'t aware of it!
He wandered inside the Inner Area without having any clue and found a Wild West Village.
That\'s where a few hours of survival competition began. He had to survive against deadly attacks of the Tail Spirit, and because he wanted to experience adventure, he jumped inside the hole, which he regretted quickly afterward, but not anymore.
He managed to increase his levels like never before.
Inside the hole, he finally became disgusted by insects after meeting with the Unknown Centipede.
After surviving the deadly encounters, he accidentally teleported to his real-life room and had his entire understanding of reality lifted upside down.
And now... Finally, he finished his experiment and left the forest, where he had countless memories.
His legs felt heavy, but he was only a few hundred meters away from the Neighborhood\'s gates.
He almost dragged his legs behind him as he started approaching the gates.
There were pair of Guards, who Isaac remembered from last year when he still went to school.
The Guards nodded towards Isaac and opened the gates without any hiccup.
Isaac nodded towards them and was lucky that Guards, whom he had a solid relationship with was on the guard duty and not the assholes who wouldn\'t let him enter.
He appeared next to metal gates, which belonged to another household, but suddenly the metal gates opened, and a beautiful middle-aged woman appeared with a dog, who was on the leash.
She looked very gentle with heavy winter clothing and flowy blond hair that reached all the way to her lower back. Hundred out of hundred would be almost certain that she was a model of some sort, but Isaac knew that she was only ordinary housewife.
\'\'Isaac.\'\' She said with a gentle smile and giggled after seeing Isaac\'s oversized jacket, \'\'Did your mom force you to wear it?\'\'
Isaac wryly smiled and stepped to the side, so she could leave the house\'s premises without him blocking the way, \'\'No, Rachel. Believe it or not, but it was my own choice.\'\'
\'\'Ohh.\'\' Rachel looked surprised and was dragged behind by the dog that suddenly appeared next to Isaac and started sniffing his clothes.
\'\'Hey, Vayne.\'\' Isaac crouched and patted the soft fur of the dog, whose name was similar with his second name, Vayne.
\'\'Did you visit somewhere?\'\' Rachel asked curiously.
\'\'Yeah, went for a walk.\'\' Isaac cooked up a simple lie and trailed his palm on Vayne\'s soft orangish fur.
Rachel tapped her chin and didn\'t completely believe that explanation. She had a hunch that there was something else.
\'\'My mom is probably getting anxious— it was nice to see you again.\'\' Isaac stood up and patted the snow from his pants, which were dirtied after his knees touched the snowy ground.
Rachel smiled and waved her hand, \'\'Same, and remember, my invitation to visit our home is still there, so don\'t be shy.\'\' She turned around and started running away with Vayne.
Her flowy blond hair fluttered back and forth, making a gorgeous scene.
Isaac turned his head and saw a middle-aged man leaving the mansion through the door.
\'\'Yo Tom!\'\' Isaac waved his hand towards Rachel\'s husband.
Tom was a man of around 180cm of height with short brown hair and a somewhat average face. He wasn\'t exactly muscular or athletic, but lean and slight signs of muscles appearing were seen around his arms.
His eyebrows were quite unique, slightly curved, which gave him a look of gentleness, and Isaac knows exactly that was his personality, which also attracted a woman like Rachel to be on his side for the rest of their life.
Many could say that Tom struck a jackpot, but he had always been hardworking and managed to climb out of poverty by himself.
He reminded a lot of Isaac\'s mother, Isabella, who was from similar living conditions as Tom.
That\'s why Tom and Isabella are good friends, which almost made their families close with each other.
Tom heard a familiar sound, which he recognized instantly.
He smiled and looked towards the metal gates, \'\'Yo, Isaac.\'\' He waved his hand and continued his walk towards the garage.
Isaac didn\'t stay any longer and left after saying his greetings.
He soon arrived at the metal gates, which led to his family\'s mansion.
There was already someone waiting for him.
Michael was looking pale and could finally relax after seeing Isaac appearing.
\'\'Come on, young master.\'\' He sighed deeply, \'\'Why are you doing this to me?\'\'
\'\'Heh, mother is just scaring you.\'\' Isaac walked through the gates and said, \'\'You won\'t be fired... Maybe.\'\'
Those words didn\'t make Michael any relaxed, and with slumped shoulders, he started walking towards the secondary building, where bodyguards were on standby.
Isaac entered the mansion and put the shoes on the shoe rack, and took off the jacket, which made him feel boiled inside.
His back and chest were drenched in sweat, even though he spent almost an hour outside, and it was cold enough for many to wear clothing which was as warm as possible.
But, the oversized jacket was hotter than needed.
For the next half an hour, Isaac had to explain what he was doing, and after the interrogation session, he went to his room and lied down on the bed.
It took him only a few seconds before he fell into a deep slumber.
Tonight, he will have a very deep sleep, but tomorrow... Another challenge awaits him.
A challenge called Legacy Tournament!
