25 Family Bond II

Ren still had a grave expression on his face as he thought of various guesses and theories about what the government's plan was.

'Damn it, what the fuck are they thinking!?'

He cursed in his heart angrily, barely suppressing himself from going back to the headquarters and punching the president to death.

At this moment, he heard his wife's voice from the side.

"Then, what's gonna be our next course of action?"

He turned his head to look at his wife's face, only to be met with a knowing expression.

'Ahhh shit, here we go again.'

Rina's expression that was brimming with confidence in her husband served as motivation and strength to Ren, making him more confident in himself.

However, this also brought up some memorable moments from their teenage years.

While they were talking, Zen thought of the conversation of his parents in hopes of understanding the situation.

Fortunately, with his intelligence, he soon got the gist of the situation. However, this realization only made him angry at the hypocritical government.

"Hmmm? What's happening? Why is the atmosphere a little stiff?"

The groggy voice of Sera caught the attention of the trio as she removed the gaming device on her head.

Playing the Free World requires one's body to relax, like the situation that happens to our body when one is asleep. Therefore, when the player exited the game, it would be as if they had just woken up from a good night's sleep.

Soon enough, Sera's grogginess went away and she excitedly hopped over her parents for a hug.

She then sat at the chair beside Zen's bed and asked curiously. "So what's happening, why are you all so serious?"

Zen, Ren and Rina briefed her of the situation and their findings which made her mad too.

Now, the whole family has grave expressions on their faces. It looked as if they came from the same mold.

After a while, Ren said, "Oh right, we had also resigned from the government."

Hearing this, Zen and Sera were both shocked.

Rina glanced at her husband and said to their children in a joking manner, "Well, one of the reasons is because of their hypocrisy. While the other is a woman's intuition."

Zen and Sera looked at each other with a wry expression on their faces. Clearly, they knew that their mother was trying to lighten up the atmosphere.

After a while, Zen asked with a confused expression. "But still, wouldn't being in the government be more beneficial in terms of gathering information?"

The couple wore an approving expression on their faces as they heard Zen's remark.

"I like the way you think, son. But there are other variables that need to be considered. Besides, the situation this time was inevitable so we really didn't have any choice."

Explain Rina as she held up her hands bitterly.

Sera chimed in from the side, "Then, since the problem involves the game… Why not use the game as the solution?"

Ren, who was still thinking hard, looked as if he was enlightened at this moment.

He looked at Sera and said, "Go on…"

Sera looked at her brother with a "help me out here" expression.

Looking at his little sister, Zen felt refreshed. As the older of the siblings, he had always got his little sister's back.

However, due to him being bedridden for 10 years, he was not able to experience their "teamwork" at all.

Now being able to experience this again, Zen felt touched and happy.

Zen thought for a while and said, "Well, I don't know… but since my attributes can help me recover, then it wouldn't be far-fetched to think that the skills and powers from the game could also be brought back here… right?"

"Oh! And there are the matters regarding guilds…"

Rina had a proud expression on her face, she was proud of her son that she carried in her womb for 9 months!

So proud that it seemed as if she was the one who thought of all those ideas!

While Rina was feeling proud, Ren's expression brightened up the more words he heard from Zen.

Sera looked at her brother and felt happy. He was still the same! He could still guess the opinions she had in mind that she had a hard time expressing into words and speak on her behalf!

As Sera felt happy in her heart, Ren raised his head with a happy expression on his face.

"That's it! I finally got it!"

Rina placed her chin on her hand as she waited for Ren's words

Ren looked at his family and said, "Since the government wants to take advantage of the masses then let them. We'll just have to mind our own business."

He then saw Zen and Sera's unsure expression and chuckled softly before continuing.

"I've thought about it for a while, but nothing really matters if we are weak. Let's first bet on the chance that the skills and power from the game can be brought back in this world too."

"If we confirmed it, then creating a guild would be our next step. For now, our focus should be on improving ourselves."

Feeling that it made sense, Zen and Sera were convinced.

Growl~

At this time, a sound echoed inside the room.

Sera covered her stomach with an embarrassed smile.

"Oops…"

Zen, Ren and Rina laughed as they were caught off-guard by the sudden growl of Sera's stomach.

"Hmmm… it looks like someone's tummy is hungry~"

Rina said with a teasing tone.

Sera blushed in embarrassment.

Zen and Ren, who were still laughing at the side, received a glare from Sera.

Rina giggled and said, "Stop fooling around. Zen, rest first while we get some food downstairs, okay?"

"Understood, mom!"

Sera, who was the last to leave, made a face at Zen before closing the door and walking with their parents.

This made him chuckle softly while looking at the door where his family had just exited.

Zen inhaled a mouthful of air as he laid back down on his bed with his hands on the back of his head while thinking about the conversation that happened earlier.
