The airship touched down at Horn Airport, and Arthur gazed out at the familiar sight—people bustling through the terminal, the rhythmic echo of footsteps on tiled floors, the mingling scents of perfume, roasted coffee, and freshly inked newspapers.
Despite being widely recognized, Arthur and Firfel hoped to leave quietly. But naturally, a few sharp-eyed bystanders caught sight of them. It started with a few gasps and hushed whispers, but in moments, a ripple s...

Jack found himself genuinely enjoying the conversation with Leoford. The noble-looking NPC had an easy charm, and surprisingly, a sense of humor. Asha, sitting nearby, looked relieved. Her uncle seemed to be getting along just fine with the Summoned Hero. She sipped her coffee quietly, allowing the discussion to drift away from the quest at hand.
“I’ve heard rumors about a creature called the Skyripper Eagle causing trouble near the village,” Jack said, seizing the chance to ask....

After accepting the quest, Jack followed Asha through the winding path out of the market square, heading westward. They walked in silence for a few minutes, the village slowly unfolding before him.
‘Even though this place is just a "village," it feels more like a small city,’ Jack mused as he glanced around. Children were running barefoot along the cobblestone path, tossing pebbles and clumps of dirt at each other with carefree laughter. ‘These NPC kids… they look so real. So u...

Jack strolled through the village, eventually finding himself near the bustling market. As he passed a vendor’s cart, he caught sight of a tall mirror leaning against the wall. His reflection stared back—cloaked in a flowing hooded robe and topped with the distinct Clockwork Top Hat.
He paused and chuckled softly. “Hood and a top hat… yeah, I look like some kind of time-traveling priest.”
He adjusted the coal-black hat slightly and continued walking.

The arrest of Katherine Knight—reputed daughter of Hollywood mogul Vince Knight—sent shockwaves through the media. The vultures of the entertainment world were already circling, hungry for headlines. The fact that she was Lucas Knight’s half-sister only amplified the attention.
Questions poured in across social media platforms. Hashtags trended. Speculation bloomed.
“Wait, why was Katherine Knight arrested? Did I miss something?”

Jack scrolled through the list of hats, skipping over flashy helmets and ridiculous accessories—until one item caught his eye.
[Clockwork Top Hat]
Style: A tall leather top hat with exposed brass gears gently ticking along the sides. A small chimney pipe protruded from the top, emitting a faint wisp of steam.
Detail: A functional clock dial sat on the front, synced with the in-game time.
Variants: Coal ...

The PLAYER ability filled Jack with renewed hope. His eyes shimmered with excitement as he closed them and dove back into the BEYOND System Lobby.
“I’m even more hyped to play Blackstar’s new game—The War of Eve,” he said to himself, the familiar kaleidoscope of blinding lights swirling around him. “Not only am I going to enjoy it… but I’ll actually gain something from it—physically, in reality. Not just inside the virtual world anymore.”
Moments later, Jack ...

Jack slumped onto his bed, the weight of the day pressing heavily on his shoulders. His eyes wandered across the room—a spacious sanctuary adorned with video game posters, collectible figures, and shelves packed with his favorite comics. Despite the luxury, it felt empty.
With a sigh, he glanced toward his desk where a sleek, black VR headset sat, its surface gleaming under the room’s soft lighting. The logo etched on it read: BEYOND.

The city of Aredan pulsed with energy, alive with the hum of floating vehicles and the rhythmic steps of commuters along the sidewalks. Flying cars glided just inches above the roads, their engines roaring softly as they drifted past towering skyscrapers. Though there wasn’t a tree in sight, the air remained fresh—thanks to high-tech oxygen containers stationed at every bus stop. Inside each container, a vibrant green liquid bubbled, steadily releasing purified air into the streets.

The transfer went smoothly. Lucy observed the process with her usual indifference, arms crossed, expression unreadable. And yet—something in her stirred. A strange, nagging feeling she couldn’t quite place.

As the final guests trickled out of the royal castle, Apollonia stood quietly by the towering doors, her gaze fixed on Arthur. She watched with thinly veiled reluctance as he walked away, flanked by Firfel and Lucy. She wanted to follow, to talk to him more—laugh like they used to—but she knew her parents would never allow it.
Arthur, meanwhile, could feel her eyes on him, and with his sensitivity to the Force, he felt her emotions just as clearly. There was...

Jon’s eyes widened slightly at the mention of the names. He couldn’t meet Lucas’s gaze, lowering his eyes to the floor instead. He tried to recover, forcing himself to appear calm—but Lucas noticed the subtle shift.
As an actor, reading people’s expressions and body language was second nature to him. Jon’s hesitation was practically screaming.

Arthur returned to the hall, his steps calm and composed, looking completely unscathed. His expression was unreadable, but his mind was quietly turning over the recent exchange with Luke.

The villagers were still suspicious of Augustus and his crew, but after some internal debate, they chose to give them the benefit of the doubt. After all, if it really were a trap by the Krieg Pirates, they wouldn't need deception—their name alone would be enough to take over the entire village.
So, with wary glances but cautious hope, the villagers allowed them entry. Surprisingly, Augustus kept his word—he caused no harm, made no threats, and in fact… began spending money like ...

Augustus now had full control of the pirate ship—complete with Krieg’s flag fluttering proudly in the wind. From what he’d learned so far, Don Krieg, the self-proclaimed admiral of the Krieg Pirates, carried a bounty of 17 million beli.
It was intimidating, no doubt. A pirate of that caliber had to be leagues stronger than someone like Vargo, who barely scratched 7.8 million.
Still, Augustus wasn’t too shaken. Sure, he was a little worried, but not scared.

It’s been three months since the house fire, and I wanted to share a quick update. The rebuilding process is steadily moving forward. It’s not finished yet, but things are finally starting to take shape.
