14 - Time to Advance!

“Quest Complete!

Quest: Recruit 3 People (3/3)

Rewarded Platinum Card & 3 Growth Cards.”

Ryan helped Frank up.

“Alright, you should get out of here. We don’t want this to happen again.”

Ryan said; Frank nodded and scurried away. Ryan looked at his retreating back; he started to walk back home.

“Open System”

A blue, translucent screen appeared before him. He tapped the “Cards” button, revealing his three “Growth Cards” and the shiny “Gold Card.”

“Reveal.

Gold Card!

Title: Liver Shot

Description: Hits the opponent’s liver.

Mastery: F (0/100)”

This was the move Myles had used. Ryan continued his walk home, curiosity bubbling within him. He clicked the “Back” button and noticed an icon labeled “Party.” His eyes widened in excitement. He tapped it, and the screen rippled, displaying five slots—four of which were already filled, including his. He saw Myles, Kenneth, and Frank’s stats, and his gaze drifted back to his three “Growth Cards.”

“3 Growth Cards Used on Myles Sterling!

I See You card leveled up! F > E! You’re now able to see the age of the opponent or ally.

Ryan let out a relieved sigh. Myles was much stronger; Ryan was still faster.

[Few Hours Later]

Ryan is at home, lying in his bed. He finished his daily special quest.

Beep!

“New Quest!

Quest: Take Over the East's Territories (0/3)

Rewards: Take Over (1/3): Silver Card.

Take over (2/3): Gold Card.

Take Over (3/3): Platinum Card”

Ryan jolted out of bed as he heard the notification. He looked at it; it was time. It’s time to take over, he clenched his fists. He realized.

"Wait, why do I have to take over? Can’t I just be in my lane and they are in theirs?”

Ryan pondered. There’s no reason to take over the North, South, East, and West. He sat down. He was confused. He has to ask Myles tomorrow. He checked his phone, and it was time to sleep. He laid down on his bed and slowly drifted off to sleep.

Beep!

Ryan shut off his alarm. He stood up and got ready for school. He headed out of his house and started walking to school. He finally reaches the big black metal gates and enters. He spots Myles walking too; he quickens his pace to catch up to Myles.

“Yo! I have a que—“

Myles intersected.

“The room I showed you is our meeting room. I’ll gather Kenneth.”

Myles said.

"I, uh, I recruited someone too. He’s pretty smart. He can be like an advisor or something.”

Ryan replied.

“Bring him then.”

Myles said before turning back and walking into the school. Ryan entered the school scanning for Frank. He spotted Frank walking quietly. He walked up to him.

“Hey. Follow me since you’re my advisor. We have a meeting.”

Ryan said as he leaned on the wall. Frank slightly jumped and looked back. Frank nodded; Ryan started walking to the empty classroom. As they reached there, Ryan opened the door. There was Myles and Kenneth patiently waiting.

“I brought the advisor.”

Ryan said as he sat down. Frank quickened his pace to sit down as well. He’s fidgeting with his hands. Myles stood up from the chair and went to the whiteboard.

“Alright. We have 4 people now. Technically, the whole West side is with us, so we have more than 4. We’re the main ones. They’ve been notified that you’re the leader now; they should follow your orders. You should join the group chat, Ryan.”

Myles walked closer to Ryan and extended his hand.

“Give me your phone.”

Ryan reluctantly gave him his phone. Myles was inputting something on his phone. He gave it back.

“Here. You’re in; you can give orders.”

Ryan nodded and looked at his phone. He can post an announcement that will go to the entire West Side. His lips curled into a smirk. He had so much power. Myles looked at Frank.

“And you are?”

Myles asked.

“I’m Frank… Frank Miller.”

Frank answered while fidgeting.

“Okay, Frank. We’re going to try to advance since the boss already defeated Johan; we’re going to take over. Here’s a map that I acquired.”

Myles said as he taped the big map on the whiteboard. It displayed the entire region. Frank stood up and took tentative steps. He inspected the map for a few seconds. He grabbed one of the markers and highlighted three areas in red marker.

“You can try to take over these territories on the east. These should be easier to take over. If all of you split up, you can take over the territory individually.”

Frank pushed his glasses as it shimmered from the sunlight beaming through the window. Frank proceeded to point at three of them.

“The plan is to finish as quickly as possible. Once done, you should help the others if needed. You guys are strong, so you’ll be able to do it. After school, you should go to the territories.”

Frank instructed as he pushed up his glasses once again.

[Few Hours Later]

Ryan, Myles, and Kenneth are outside of school. They all split up to go to the territories. Ryan reached his designated spot. It was a building; you could play billiards inside. Ryan smirked; he entered the building as the little bell atop the glass door rang.
