Chapter 250 - Dinner
Dinner
This particular part of the floor was reserved for the players and collective activities. They could chat and talk about various topics in the lobby, discuss about the next level and many more.
Also they can have a look at the ranking charts. The lounge was designed to give family dinner appearance. Team members could dinner with other members or they could simply eat in their suites.
There was gym at the right side. The sole purpose was to make sure the fitness of the players. However during live portal it was nearly impossible to walk in the gym. Clark and Albert missed gym. They liked to exercise here.
This floor has separate kitchen and kitchen staff. They cook according to the healthy diet plan of the players.
Jake walked in the lobby. Junan reached first, later Sashi joined. Jake saw them and greeted. It was the first interaction that they personal saw younger player. Fifteen years old Jake Lin was really little kid in front of them just that he has good height compared his age.
"Young boy, come sit here." Junan gestured him to take seat near him. Jake nodded and followed his gesture. He looked like obedient kid yet full of confidence. Junan side glanced at his right hand but did not ask anything. Sashi could not hide her shock, "You are quite genius at this young age. I am sure you have more wonders hidden in your head." She smiled pleasantly.
Jake slightly smiled at her comment. "Senior Sashi is experienced and capable." Jake felt these players were not arrogant at all unlike those who knew nothing and brag much. Orin entered the lobby few moments later. He greeted others and sat to wait for the rest of them.
Clark and Ahram came running because only two minute were left in the dinner time. Albert followed behind. They individually greeted others. Before they could start conversation Mr. Gueman came. Without any further formality they reached the dinner table where several types of tasty dishes were ready to make them drool.
"We will have peaceful dinner and later brief talk." Gueman sat on the chair. Others sat at both sides. Half of them were surprised that Gueman was young CEO and the owner of this team. Others were well aware about Gueman and his excellent presence in the gaming world.
Jake also joined and heartily ate dinner. He did not eat much earlier despite his empty stomach. The delicious dinner and the well served dishes made the team members forget owner of the team.
During portal game they usually starve because of the limited time. They finished dinner and joined in the lobby. Team of seven members was getting popular for several reasons. "Do you know why third team is getting popular?" Gueman asked not particularly looking at any player.
He was here to have formal talk and also bring up the importance of few aspects of teaming. Gueman could tackle enemies from outside and provide peaceful live portal battles to all seven members however once this team faced disunity or personal issues with other team members then the team and the team reputation would crumble to dust.
No one answered because it was not question.
"It is because you are the only team with all players crossed level three. Not single player received death damage. There were some occasion where one or two members might have faced this horrible scenario however the others became shield in order secure from further damage. This level of collaborate is the dream of other teams. I have some high hopes for this team. As you took the oath to regain the face of 'Sovereign Rulers' I will make sure we reach our goal with fair means. I might not be able to keep in contact often however let me tell you I wam working so that enemies should not use unfair means." The team owner took pause.
"Also I am here to appreciate the younger player called Jake Lin..." Gueman halted suddenly and did not speak what he was about to disclose. He thought that perhaps it would badly influence his performance if he let others know about Patina Lin.
"I am finally feeling good that I gave him chance. Kid, your reputation is increasing so be careful whenever you interact with fans on social platforms. All of you should remember the team and the team secrets are confidential, none of you should express it in front of your friends or even family members."
"If someone tries to approach you through means then immediately report it to me or leave written paper and slip it in the box out there. I will regularly check the box and take action. Lastly, in case you need something apart from the available facilities, you can ask anytime." Gueman finished what he has to say.
Team members listened carefully. They nodded and the owner left. He was in hurry for the meeting. The developers gave the next date for the fourth level. The president's of all involved companies were informed prior so that they remained ready for the exact time.
Also the new petition was accepted despite that Gueman questioned the validity of the actions. After some deliberation he signed document and approved. The third team would rest for the time being until the other gaming lord's selected their capable teams out of the scrape of guilds.
Court gave this permission after taking look at the miserable condition of the enemy teams. With this rate none of the opponent teams would survive in any level. It was unfair and one could tell the court showed leniency toward the big companies.
Gueman could only sigh. However he was sure those teams would not be able to give much harm to the third team. In the previous level showed they could get rid their enemies when it needed.
He sent the written instructions to the team head. Junan knew each advance level would open up the tricks of the enemies. However he was ready.
Orin looked toward Clark and asked, "Your biceps reduced much, what is your schedule for free days?" He asked because he seriously wanted to pull strings and burn his belly fats.
Clark observed his bicep and nodded. "True I lost much. I will spend these three days in the gym. Eating and gym, nothing else. After the instructions of the owner, I am thinking not to use social apps. Ahram what are your plans?" He asked Ahram.
"I will be doing tough practice for swimming. I should learn it in these three days." His plans were decided when in the tasks of the third level. "Oh you will be busy then." Clark winked Ahram then looked at Sashi. "Miss Sashi is silent today.?" He asked.
Sashi has nothing particular for her three days schedule, "I am thinking to practice my martial arts lessons." She shook shoulders not knowing what other routine she could do.
"Wait, this reminded me of something." Junan hurriedly interrupted. All of them got attentive toward him. "Due to the pressure of the level completely, quest completion and many more, it is highly likely that our weapons would face any unpredictable circumstances so I decided that each one of us will learn martial arts moves that are allowed in the live portal. It is necessary that we could protect ourselves in case we damaged our weapon. I will arrange instructor tomorrow morning, be on time." He strictly ordered.
Now they looked at Clark who was asking their routine in the free time. Since the team head gave this order so they nodded.
Junan went back in his room after having some chat with Albert. Jake also thought to go back when Clark stopped him. "Young boy Jake, I saw your official account, someone is trying to create ruckus in the comment section. If you need my help I will." He patted on his shoulders.
Jake shrugged his shoulder and smiled, "Publicity has its drawback. I am sure he must be from enemy's side. However it would be early if I give my reaction so I won't." Jake answered.
Clark smiled, "Haha great idea. You are smart. If I was on your place, I might have bombarded that comment maker with heavy reaction but you are right. As the team owner said we should be careful when making social appearance." Clark admitted that Jake was mature in this aspect.
"Okay then I will see you in the morning practice." Clark waved him and went toward gym.
Albert walked near. "I am amazed to personally meet Jake, the youngest team player. I hope we built long journey in the game." He also walked toward gym. He was shieldman and needed strong body in accordance with the stronger weapon.
Orin joined them in the gym as well. Sashi waved to the young boy and went back. Her playstation needed her attention. She was thinking to replace the keyboard as it was not of her liking.. The company provided best but she liked the older version which was handy.
