Chapter 514: Low Blow

“Well, I appreciate the token, Captain,” Leo said, setting it down beside him on the table, as he waited patiently, allowing Kid to take the lead in the conversation once more.

“So, Mr. Skyshard,” Kid began, “as you’ve probably already figured out, we’re no longer able to track or punish you within the game world. As employees of the Universal Government, we no longer have the authority to take a Master’s life. Therefore, the ‘Actor’ class penalty, which would have cost you your life if your identity were to be exposed, is now officially null and void.”

Kid said, as with that, Kid finally got to the point, explaining the crucial details of Leo’s ascension and its implications in both the real and virtual worlds.

“So you mean to say, even if I reveal my identity to the whole ship, you can no longer punish me?” Leo asked cautiously, as he barely suppressed the glee in his stomach.

The ‘Fake It Till You Make It’ curse had been with him since day1, and it had made his life a living hell.

Just today, as he read the posts on the global forums, he felt as if the walls were closing down on him because of the actor class restrictions. However, it seemed like those restrictions were no longer applicable to him.

It was almost like he had actually faked it till he made it and now he was invincible.

“Affirmative, even if you reveal your identity to everyone, we can no longer punish you” Kid confirmed, as a soft smile spread on Leo’s face.

“Interesting…” he said, as he controlled the urge to burst out in laughter.

“Also, since it’s inappropriate for us to allow a man of your stature to continue living amongst commoners, we have decided to shift you to the VIP quarters–” Kid continued, as it seemed like the benefits that Leo was going to receive did not just and with him getting rid of the stupid ankle bracelet.

“The VIP quarters?” Leo asked, wondering as to where this was, as to his knowledge, the Arc Ship only extended up till Sector S, before a massive gate separated the staff section from the passenger section.

“Yes, the VIP quarters. They are three mansions with massive training grounds and mana concentration arrays that are only for VIP passengers.

Like Raya and Raven have already informed you, this is not the only time that this ship is being used.

We are like a bus service on your host planet, but just an intergalactic bus.

There are many features on this ship that your transporter has not paid for and hence you passengers don’t receive them. However, this ship itself is capable of a lot more things.

Currently, there is someone on planet Terra Nova who has paid for you to reside in the VIP mansion after taking note of your stellar progress, and hence for the rest of your trip, so we are officially upgrading you there” Kid said, as Leo felt pleasantly surprised by this revelation.

It was his dream to someday slowly ascend to sector S, but somehow he had miraculously gone a step above even Sector S, gaining rights to become a VIP resident now.

“Can I bring my brother and Amanda there too?” Leo asked, as although he was excited to shift to the VIP quarters, he would only do so if his family could follow too.

“Yes… there are 3 mansions that come as part of one VIP unit, so you can bring two guests with you” Captain Kid confirmed, as Leo felt elated by this revelation.

It was about time that he told the truth about his in-game ID and his exploits to them, and having a mansion to smoothen the talk over was definitely nice.

“Finally, though I hate to do this…. We must also talk about one last thing” Captain Kid said, as his face turned slightly serious.

After all the positive news that he had given Leo, there were unfortunately some negative news that he had to share with him as well.

“What is it?” Leo asked, as judging by the grim expression on Captain Kid’s face, he knew it could not be something good.

“Mr.Skyshard, as you must already know, the balance of this game is vital to our employers on Terra Nova and you disrupt it too much.

I’m afraid, although you’re extremely valuable to organization’s on our destination planet, you’re not valuable enough to derail the whole grooming project and hence, we cannot allow you to destroy the balance of the game–” Kid said, as Leo scoffed in disbelief.

He had stayed in isolation for the past 6 months and he did not intend to stay in one any longer.

“I know it’s frustrating, but the demands of our Employers are clear. Of the 747 days left in our journey. You are barred for logging into the game for any more than 247 days.

This is a non-negotiable deal, however, worry not, for they are willing to compensate you ten times over for your inconvenience—” Kid said, as Leo could not believe his ears.

These bastards wanted to rob him from 500 days of gaming! And Leo simply refused to acknowledge such a cruel fate.

“What?” He said in disbelief, as Kid immediately threw his palms in the air, as if to show that it was not his decision to make.

“It’s not too bad, if you log once every three days, you can easily log in till the end of our journey, also they’re compensating you for your inconvenience ten times over if you think about it–” Kid said, as Leo felt his left eye flutter in anger.

“What compensation? A mansion? I’m fine living here, just let me game in peace” Leo said, as Kid looked at him with confused eyes.

“Oh no, you have misunderstood Sir Leo, the compensation is not the mansion. It’s the new meditation manual…. One that can help you on your path to becoming a Grand-Master!” Raven said, as it was at that moment, that Leo felt all the anger fizz out of his body.
