Chapter 30: Valerian Milo.

In Greece, Delphi, a dark alley,

"Any last words, filth?" said a man dressed in all black with the exception of a white Versake belt, he held a Flintlock in one hand which was pointed at the "filth's" head. He had rich silver hair that covered most of his face, making his eyes barely visible.

"P-ppplease sp-spare m-"

*????*

"Know your place trash, tch," the man said.

"But boss didntcha ask'm for his last words?" asked a curious young boy

"Shutcho mouth Martin before I throw you back to your pigsty of a country," the man said.

One of, if not, Greece's biggest asset's in terms of business, Valerian Milo, the current CEO of 'Milo.inc' and also someone who values the security of the country, secretly carrying out tasks which are usually handled by the police.

What the public wasn't aware of, was the fact that Valerian was a rank holder in Genesis. In fact, he was currently right behind Kira who was at the top of the leader board.

Kira was almost level 70 and Valerian had just entered level 69, meaning Valerian was slowly catching up, since the leaderboards don't show player's classes, players will not be able to know the class of another player unless they publicly announce it.

Valerian was lucky enough to choose a hidden class, out of the 4 hidden classes he chose the Saint-class and his reasoning behind this was simple, he didn't trust anyone else with 'the healing.'

Religion wasn't mandatory until the first ascension, and since Genesis had multiple mythologies, meaning Greek Gods were not the only ones, Norse,Roman,Egyptian, Gods from these mythologies were present as well, which means that Religion in Genesis was a major part of the game, However, KYOJIN did mention that the game did have Gods from different Mythologies but it was centered around the Greek Gods, meaning majority of the story is related to the Greek Gods.

At first, many claims were made, which stated that KYOJIN was being partial towards the Greek's and put only their Gods in the spot-light but these accusations soon died down, simply due to the fact that KYOJIN had no other motives behind choosing Greek Gods as its main theme, the company simply chose the option that they wanted to.

(A/N: went slightly off-track but thought it was the right time for info dump (^-^) )

Valerian played in a group along with his family members and close subordinates, taking full advantage of his position and the power that comes with it, with his constant buffs and healing his party members rarely found it difficult to go on for hours, they surpassed Night's farming speed but because they're a party the XP is shared.

Currently, Valerian and his group were in the desert region before Linto, it was an independent region that wasn't governed by any of the kingdoms, the major powers deemed Linto as a waste of resources and never tried to raid the region. In order to reach Linto, they would first have to cross a desert that easily took around a day of constant marching to cross, the temperature was nearing 50C but the most difficult problem to overcome would be the perpetual sandstorms and creatures crawling around.

Some of these creatures looked like Centipedes, however, they weren't as small, in fact, they were almost 12 feet in length and had a hard exoskeleton that allowed them to travel through the sandstorms easily.

The coordinated play between Valerian his teammates was far from a joke, with the nearing perfect heals and the tank rushing in to take the damage while the ranger and the mage dealt damage from far, and if one of the tanks found it difficult, there was another tank waiting to take his place.

A group of 5 managed to cross the desert, of course, this wasn't possible for any group, in fact, it may be impossible even for a group of 10, which was the maximum number of players that could be in one group.

Unlike Kira, who publicly announced who he was, Valerian remained in the shadows, he was the CEO of one of the biggest companies in Greece, he didn't do so for any profound reason, like, wanting his family to be safe but he hadn't yet revealed his IGN(in-game name) for only one reason and that was because he was shy.

You see Valerian was a CEO, a businessman, and someone who held immense power in Greece as well as other countries, in the publics eyes he was a hard-core man, there were rumors that he beat a bear in a fistfight at one point, that was the impression of Valerian but only those around him knew the truth.

The truth was that Valerian was a big softie, he never intended to fool the public, it was just that the rumors escalated to a point where he couldn't turn back anymore but in Genesis, nobody would know who he was, at least that's what he thought in the beginning when he named his character 'Mocha'.

He was now afraid since he was the second rank on the leaderboards, soon a situation may arise where Valerian would have to expose his in-game name.

He never expected that the Saint class would be strong, in fact, he anonymously went onto the Genesis forums and cursed many players there for calling the Saint class weak.

Of course, he chose the class because he couldn't trust others as a healer but the real reason was that Valerian never intended to become this strong or popular, he just wanted to casually play and have another life where he could be as true to his real nature as possible but unfortunately, he got caught up in his competitiveness and was now stuck with being called one of the best players in Genesis.
