VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

-Screeech!

A car stops in the underground parking lot.

-Clik… Dhum.

A man in a lavish light gray suit steps out of it.

"Which floor was it again?"

A pair of feather cufflinks that he received as a gift from his daughter, glasses covering his deep brown eyes, his sharp clean face resembling that of an intellectual, and his eyes observing everything around them.

The parking lot was empty at the moment, cars lined up on all sides before them.

"Twenty First floor, master."

Two men in black also stepped out of the front doors, a black goggles covering their eyes.

"Let's go then."

"Yes."

Without taking much, the man in a gray suit first walked forward towards the elevator with a silver suitcase in his hand… the green feathers on his cuffs shining under the dim light of the parking lot.

"One… two… three."

Walking behind the man in gray, the two in black carried a coffin on their shoulders.

They didn't need six people for this task since it was a rather light piece, however, since it was a difficult task even for these muscular men, it certainly was not a light thing.

-Ding!Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Thankfully, the elevator of this building was a big place. There was enough space for all three of them as well as this coffin in there.

And, it was quick as well.

-Ding!

They didn't have to stop anywhere else and reached their destination.

"It's that way, right?"

"Master!"

The man walked out and started walking to the left side, however, the two in black called out to him before he took a left turn.

"It's on the right side, [303]."

The first one helped the other get the coffin on his back, and then on his shoulder, and with a lifting jerk, he also placed it on his shoulder.

A painful movement, but it was effective.

"Oh, I see."

With him in the lead, the three walked to the right this time, and soon, they stood before an apartment house with its door open.

"Master?"

"Oh, master's here!"

The others wearing a casual outfit, who were engaged in housework like cleaning and dusting, greeted the man first, but the man looked around inside the place.

"Where's she?"

He stepped aside so that the two with the coffin could go in and place the thing down, and the others helped them get it off their shoulder and place it down without damaging the marble floor.

It was something their young lady cherished, so they knew what would happen to them if they damaged anything.

"What's going on? Did I hear something?"

His deep brown eyes were finding someone inside this Shabby house filled with people and dust and a sweet familiar smell.

He was looking around, and when his eyes saw the one they were looking for coming out from the kitchen side, a warm smile broke out on his Young face.

"Dad?"

"Olive…"

With his eyes filled with joy, his heart filled with warm blood and his lips curved into a smile, he walked towards her…

"Hey, wait!"

But she shouted before he had taken even one step in.

"Shoes to the side, dad! Don't you see they're working!"

People wore shoes in their houses usually, but not the same ones they use outside. She especially didn't like the outside shoes inside the house, certainly not when someone was cleaning up the house.

Their efforts would be in vain if he came in with his outside shoes.

"Hmmm?"

He was confused for a moment, then he looked down at his shoes that were as clean as a newly bought pair, and then he looked back up at his little daughter's serious face… and a chuckle broke out of him.

"Haha, yes. Of course."

He placed his shoes on the side stand, and picked a pair of indoor flippers.

They resembled the crocs that used to be famous a few decades ago, but nowadays, they use a unique kind of design for the indoor footwear.

"Is this better?"

He smiled at her warmly, and she nodded with a warm smile of her own.

"Much better~."

She ran up to her father, and hugged him.

"How has my little olive been?" He asked as he hugged his little sunshine back.

She had been here for a few weeks now so they had not seen each other in person for a while now.

"I'm fine, tired thanks to you and those two friends of mine, but today was a new experience."

She was working here, and it wasn't time to come back home yet so he didn't think he would be seeing her anytime soon now.

But then, she called him one day out of the blue, and asked him if she could have the

Chariot he had built for her back home.

It was something that belonged to her even though she had never used it, and he had not been as happy in a very long time as he was when he heard her say that.

"Hmm? Olive?"

"What's going-… oh!"

Alex and Elio had been inside, in the kitchen helping Olive with the sweets and drinks.

They thought she only went out to see what was happening, but after she didn't come back, they came out as well and looked for her… only to find the person they all had been waiting for since earlier.

"Uncle Sean-."

"Sean~!"

Elio was happy to see his uncle, but Alex was so excited to see her friend that she ran up to him even though she was half covered in wine, and hugged both her Olive and her tech Bestie.

"Hey! What the hell! Why are you so wet!"

"Is that wine… is that wine!"

Wine stains on a gray coat… they knew what was going to happen to that pretty piece now.

"Hahaha, you're as energetic as always, Drew."

But the one wearing the coat didn't mind her.

He just laughed, and hugged her back.

"Hey! Alex! No! Get away!"

But the daughter knew how that costly coat wasn't going to get cleaned up if she kept clinging to him!

She pushed her away, and seeing all this… Elio couldn't help but sigh helplessly since he knew how this was just the start of their craziness.

"Alex, come here you dirty little kid."

Sean Weil… he was called a genius in the technological field.

He was the person that invented the cooling mechanism that's used in most of the Chariots nowadays, and he was a genius among many smart people of this high standard society.

He was respected by many, and in most eyes, he was a fearsome individual.

Yet, with his daughter and a friend one and a half decades younger than him, he was nothing more than a simple man.
