Wade stared at the gaming room that he built with the help of Doctor Morel and reminisced about the past.
This was the place that he built after his parents left him in this world. He had a lot of mories here since it was also the place where his father first introduced him to the virtual world before it was renovated by him.
"I guess, I'll it to Grandpa Morel to clean this place until I co back," muttered Wade to himself as he already made his decision.
"But before that, I have to finish what I started in the Frozen Kingdom. I need to clear everything before I travel towards the Souring Continent," he added as he walked towards his gaming cabin.
He already rested enough and could now go back to the ga. Doctor Morel also gave him permission to play, but at the sa ti, he was also warned not to use the Hyper Active Imrsion for an extended period. Or at least not to use the Fifth Phase of the Demon's Eye – even the fourth phase if possible.
His Hyper Active Imrsion was quite special and it was most likely due to his Demon's Eyes based on the analysis that Doctor Morel made. If that was the case, then he needed to limit using those two together – at least, until he was in the right facility where he could be supported after using them.
Having that in mind, he went back to his specialized gaming cabin and started pressing a couple of buttons before closing the cabin door to log in to the ga.
"Initiate Ga Login, «Destiny's Fate»!"

In the anti, in the Eastern Sea Region of the Soaring Continent, the World Researcher Center was very busy as usual.
Senior Students of the Special Research Departnt and the Researchers were coming in and out of the center.
Professor Henry walked out of the front door while a row of researchers followed after him. He was constantly giving his final instructions to them before leaving.
The researchers bowed at him as they send him off before they ran back to their respective stations to continue their assignnts.
"Tsk! Tsk! I am already busy enough in my research, then that troubleso kid is added to the list that I need to do," complained Professor Henry as he rembered the course that he needed to prepare for Shin.
Then there was another task that was added just recently. "Then there is another kid that I need to take care of. Fortunately, all I have to do is to monitor him and his progress. I can at least assign the job to my assistants and check on him from ti to ti."
The professor was walking back to his personal shelter within the Magic Ace Academy when he suddenly felt soone was spying on him.
The expression on his face suddenly turned serious, narrowing his eyes. He already found the sources of the gazes locked on him despite them hiding their presence and intention.
But despite that being the case, he didn't turn his head towards them to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"These people are getting bolder as ti goes by. It is going to be more troubleso if they finally run out of patience," he muttered as he was getting annoyed.
He couldn't even ask the guards protecting him in the dark since he knew the background of these people.
As the Head Researcher of the World Research Center, he knew all of the projects that were taking place in the center no matter how important or trivial it was. Because of this, there were quite a lot of organizations that wanted to kidnap him if the opportunity presented itself.
But despite the 'fact' that Professor Henry 'couldn't' use either Martial Arts or ntalism, no one dared to make a move against him since those organizations had a tacit agreent not to ss with this person.
Unfortunately, so of those organizations really wanted to get their hands on the data of so projects within the Research Center, especially the most important ones such as the 'Unification of Martial Arts and ntalism', the 'Study of Different Disciplines', and the 'Secrets of Ancient Cultivation'.
These three were the most attractive ones in the eyes of those organizations, the first and third studies in particular.
They even tried to do all of the underhanded tricks just to get their hands on those precious sets of data. Unfortunately, none of them work. Even planting a spy in the Research Center was ineffective nor stealing the data.
The security system within the World Research Center was impenetrable and Professor Henry was the only person who was immune to all of those restrictions.
This was the main reason why the other organizations were constantly monitoring all of the activities that the professor was doing.
Terrorism was the only available solution that these organizations had. But who in their right mind would dare to do that if the other organizations would set their eyes on them the mont when they did such a stupid move?
No matter where they hid, they were going to be discovered wherever they went since the whole world would be looking for them.
Regardless of those thoughts, it was still a possibility since there would always be stupid ones who would dare to do such a foolish move. That was also why Professor Henry was always under protection wherever he went.
But recently, so of these people monitoring him were getting bolder. Perhaps, he needed to make an example out of a few of them.
Having that thought, a cold glint appeared in the professor's eyes, planning to make a couple of arrangents later.
"Let's see who will fall into our trap. I hope I catch I big one this ti," he muttered to himself as he continued walking to his quarters, still ignoring the guys spying on him.

At the sa ti, sowhere in the Eastern Sea Region, Nathan Springfield stood in a certain place within a forest. It was a pretty remote area perfect to hide sothing.
Not far from him was a cri scene where a couple of people had their limbs separated from each other while their innards were scattered in all directions. It was a very grueso scene that could make the stomach of anyone flip over.
Police and military officers were surveying the scene, investigating what could possibly happen. It was already impossible to recognize the identity of these people since their bodies were no longer intact.
But based on the clothes that they were wearing, they seed to be police officers who were investigating a particular case last night. The IDs that were recovered at the scene also helped to identify them.
The police force recognized that this was not an ordinary case, so they asked for so help from the military.
Nathan happened to be in the middle of a discussion with the general stationed in the region when the report ca, so he decided to tag along.
Nathan continued to walk around to survey the surrounding area, trying to see if he could find so clues. But after failing to find anything, he shook his head and decided to join the others.
"What do you think?" asked a man wearing black military attire right after standing beside Nathan.
"This is definitely done by a Martial Artist based on the trances left here. And they are also not your average guy at that," answered Nathan in a calm tone.
He then focused his gaze on the air filling the area, seemingly able to see all of the substances mixed in it. "They are also so Qi residuals left behind, so it has already been obvious."
"But isn't it a little amateurish mistake? Look at the scene, whoever did it is not able to control their strength properly, causing such a ss," said the military officer who seed to be the sa age as Nathan.
"That-… Or that person doesn't care what will happen next," refuted Nathan before continuing. "Based on the reports, the four people belonged to the special investigation unit, so they are at least in the Early Phase of the Ethereal Opening Stage."
"Based on the traces left behind, they must have died on a single strike. For experts like them to die like that, then their opponent must have overwhelming power."
"Even an ordinary Void Manifestation Stage Expert shouldn't be that strong to dispose of these highly-trained officers in a single strike."
"Their opponent should at least be at the late phase of the Void Manifestation Stage or early phase of the Domain Realm."
He then turned to the guy beside him. "Now, I'm curious, what is the case that the police force is investigating to encounter such a powerful expert?"
Nathan didn't have enough information, so he was still missing a few pieces. At the sa ti, this was not his area of jurisdiction, so he couldn't demand any additional information, much less continue the investigation.
Regardless of those thoughts, he couldn't help but ask since he could sense sothing fishy in this case.
Moreover, the Qi residuals left in the scene seed to be familiar to him. He still couldn't rember where he felt it since it was sowhat vague, but he was sure that he felt it sowhere before.
"And I'm having a bad feeling about this," he muttered as a solemn expression appeared on his face.
