Chapter 52 Alone

?

"Let's open this in Amaterasu with Roza and PamPam." RedBand suggested and tossed the treasure chest into his inventory. Felixar and Andyy didn't mind and nodded.

Ambrose didn't really care, as his mind was occupied by something else.

"Ambrose, are you alright?" RedBand asked. "Are you fine if we share the rewards back in Amaterasu? You were a big reason for the success of this quest, so you can choose the first reward you want from the treasure. Is that fine?"

"Yes, thanks." Ambrose nodded and sheathed his swords.

"Alright." RedBand clapped his hands. "Let's gather the dropped items from monkeys, then share the silver we get from them."

Felixar and Andyy nodded. They went to pick up Roza's dropped item and walked to the items that were strewn around the village.

After they returned, RedBand said. "Let's log out and regroup in Amaterasu. Ambrose, is it fine if we use your dojo?"

"Whoah, he has a dojo?" Andyy exclaimed. "Can you teach me a skill? Pleasee, I don't have one yet!"

"Andyy, you are a spearsman." Felixar said and rubbed Andyy's head, messing with his hair.

"That's fine." Ambrose nodded.

"Alright, see you there." RedBand opened his interface and logged out. Felixar and Andyy said their farewells and logged out.

Ambrose looked at his left hand and touched his right shoulder. He imagined the pain he would feel once he logged out.

"Only a brief visit..." He took a deep breath, opened his interface, and logged out.

...

Beep, beep, beep.

Jesse opened his shaky eyes and almost let out a scream. He tried moving his arms, but they felt surprisingly stiff.

Through the golden visor, he saw the interior of a hospital room, and there were wires stuck in his body. His left hand was bandaged, and there was a cast on his right arm.

There was a beeping machine beside the hospital bed, showing his vitals. It let out an annoying beep, beep, beep sound.

"A hospital? What the fuck?" Jesse cried out, and since both of his arms were unusable, he couldn't take off the VR headset.

"Are you happy now?"

Jesse turned to the person with a stern voice and saw his father sitting on a chair with an angry expression on his face.

"Father...?"

"Are you happy?" Terry shouted angrily and stood up. "You only cause problems for others. What the hell is wrong with you?"

"Argh..." Jesse gritted his teeth in pain. "I didn't... ask... for the hospital!"

"Alice called for one." Terry said with a scoff. "You even caused trouble for her even though she is concerned about your situation. You have completely made our family lose face."

Jesse turned his gaze to the ceiling. He couldn't see the normal colors of the hospital because of the golden visor. However, he knew that this hospital wasn't cheap.

"You came all the way to yell at me?" Jesse laughed. "You should have stayed at home with your crossword puzzles."

"Who do you think has to pay for this, huh?" Terry shouted. "Alice offered to pay for all this, but how could we lose even more face? This is the Marvelio Family we are talking about. They are the cornerstone of this city!"

"I will pay for it." Jesse said through pain.

"With what money?" Terry laughed mockingly. "You spent all your money on that fucking game. How could you possibly afford anything?"

"I... will... pay for it." Jesse looked at his father and said with a frosty voice.

"Hmph, fine. I will tell them to send the bill to your new address." Terry said with a spiteful tone.

"New address?" Jesse looked confused. "What do you mean by that?"

"It is time for you to stop leeching on us." Terry crossed his arms and looked down at his son. "Maria and I have talked about this for some time now. You don't seem to change, so we rented an apartment for you.

"We will pay the rent for the first two months, but after that, we will stop paying anything for you. "

"You are... throwing me out?" Jesse looked at his father and shook his head with a mocking look.

"You should at least learn to respect your parents." Terry said coldly. "You have to enter the world of adults, and with such an attitude, you won't get anywhere.

"That is my final advice to you." Terry walked to the door, opened it, and looked at his son one final time. "Don't use the name Kraham publicly. We have already had our hands full trying to restore our name. We don't need you to ruin it even further."

Slam—he shut the door and walked away.

"Hahahahaha..." Jesse laughed until tears appeared in the corner of his eyes. He was happy. "Yes, thank you. I don't need you two. I don't need to use Kraham's name. I only need one name.

"Ambrose."

He pressed the button on his headset and returned to Martial Online.

...

Ambrose opened his eyes and saw the familiar dojo room. He covered his face and let out a laugh.

"Hahahahaha..." He turned to the only chair in the room and kicked it into the wall. The wooden chair shattered into pieces. "Fuuck!"

Ambrose paced about and slammed his fist into the door before walking to the window. He screamed aloud and clenched both fists before slamming them into the wall.

He took a deep breath, then combed his hair backwards with his hand, revealing his dull eyes and pale, sickly face.

From a window, he saw a group arriving at the wooden gate. The person leading them was RedBand and he shouted "Ambrose" loudly.

Ambrose took a deep breath and looked at his reflection from the window. He forced a smile with teary eyes. "I don't need them. Everything will turn out better. I believe..."

He exhaled, left the room, and walked to the wooden gate. Once he opened it, he saw RedBand, Roza, PamPam, Andyy, and Felixar. However, there was also someone else, and that person only had one leg.

"You must be Marcus." Ambrose said.

"Yes, good job at the quest, very good." One-Leg Marcus smiled gently.

"Come in." Ambrose let everyone inside and then locked the wooden gate. They gathered on the dojo's first floor, which was the most spacious room in the dojo.

RedBand placed a treasure chest in front of him, then pulled out a brown pouch and placed it next to it.

"We visited a merchant before coming here. We received a total of 4500 silvers. 750 silvers for each, and we haven't opened the treasure chest yet. We already agreed that you could choose the first reward for yourself.

"After that, One-Leg Marcus here will give our quest rewards."

"I understand." Ambrose nodded and looked at the treasure chest. It didn't have a lock, so he could open it whenever he wanted to.

However, first, RedBand split the money and gave everyone 750 silvers.

"Open it." Andyy said excitedly. He and the rest were excited to see what kind of rewards awaited them.

One-Leg Marcus rubbed his goatee. He was also curious what kind of rewards the Steel-Armed Gorilla managed to hoard. In his opinion, it must've been a lot since he had been stealing stuff for months.

Ambrose nodded and opened the lid of the treasure chest. He peeked inside the chest and widened his eyes with pleasant surprise.
