BXBX NOVEL Chapter 48 Work, News, And....Trouble?
After the academy was over, Zevien, Vernisia, Erica, and Dan left the academy together in Zevien's newly bought car that cost him 748,000 Lopax credits. It was a tier-1 car, so it cost less. Tier-1 means it only had one spell gear enchanted in it. His bike was tier-2, so it had two spells.
Zevien drove to his office site, which was not too big but not too small either. It was an eight hundred square foot area. Its construction work was still in the process except for one part, where a two hundred square feet room was perfectly ready with furniture since Zevien wanted it to be made in a hurry.
Yowen's computers and others things were shifted in that room, and he basically stayed here. Zevien would also work there when inputting magic formations in the cards for action animations.
"You're here," Yowen said as he turned to look at them and was surprised to see Zevien's friends this time, "so your friends will join as well? Great. We need more workforce anyway."
"Yep," Dan nodded with a grin, "let's make this successful."
"So those are the cards," Vernisia said with sparkling eyes as she looked at a large table in the room and walked towards it.
There was a large rectangle table in the room, touching one wall to another. Cards were arranged in rows on the table, each within a rectangular glass container.
"Eh, why do you have jewelist tools? do you know about their work?" Erica was surprised to see some tools on the table.
Zevien internally sweated as he forgot about this. Suddenly, he got an idea as he smiled at Vernisia, "it's for Vernisia. She and I will work together on these cards since she got a knack for becoming a good Jewelist and already know a bit more than the basics. I am putting a tiny gem in each card with the magic formation to display the action holograms, and Vernisia can help me with that."
"How do you know?" Vernisia was surprised as she looked at Zevien.
"I know everything about you," Zevien said with a loving smile.
"That's kinda creepy...to know everything about someone else," Yowen commented while looking at his monitors and typing quickly.
Everyone looked at him speechlessly.
"You are in no position to say that," Zevien rolled his eyes, "a literal illegal spy."
"Alright, since we are here, then let's start working," Dan said as he pumped his fists, "tell us what to do."
Erica nodded, "yep. Let's start working."
"You two will have to go out at this location," Zevien said as he sent them the location via Digi-watch, "a product known as Spell Gauntlet is being researched there. It's the second most important thing after this card game."
"Sounds interesting, but what do we do there?" Erica asked with doubt.
"Just learn more about that product and supervise the research. There is no need to spend a lot of time there but devise some strategy to market it after learning about it. Also, since you two are interested in Enchanting and Magic Smithing, you will be able to learn by watching pros doing their work," Zevien smiled.
"Oh, that's great!" Dan said excitedly, "alright, we will leave right away."
"Take my bike," Zevien said as he threw him the key, "it's parked in the alley east of this site."
"Unfortunately, we won't be eating with the kids at noon from now on. So, let's go there for dinner daily instead," Vernisia said, "after training at the dojo, we will go there."
"Alright," Zevien nodded with a smile.
Afterward, Dan and Erica left while Zevien and Vernisia started working on the cards as Yowen designed the animation codes before handing them to Zevien and Vernisia, where they inputted them on cards using their mana and carved their formations on them.
They worked from 12 PM to 4 PM before calling Dan and Erica back. Afterward, they went to the Dojo for training until 8 PM and then went to the orphanage to dine with the kids.
A whole day passed, but Zeiven didn't hear any news about the phenomenon he experienced in the Inviolable Blood Garden magic labyrinth.
However, every country's government had gotten this information and decided to contain to confirm before this news exploded like wildfire the next day.
Everyone found out that the magic labyrinths are changed forever from now on.
...
The next day, at Zevien's office...
"Is this for real?" Dan asked with wide eyes while looking at the TV before laughing, "hahaha, I can't wait to enter the magic labyrinth again."
Zevien was also surprised when he read the whole news, 'magic quests? Relic embryos? Spell stones? This....'
According to the news, he was surprised by many new things appearing in the magic labyrinth that he didn't experience yesterday. This honestly sounded very mystical, fun, and interesting.
Zevien didn't know that this whole process was yet to be completed when he was there yesterday. Otherwise, he would have at least encountered the magic quest phenomenon when he interacted with that family.
Suddenly, he got a call from Touma and picked it up.
Touma--, "come to the lab, quick. you are in trouble."
