The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 18 - Concerns
Am I sorry about all this?
'No.'
Am I afraid of my current condition?
'Yes, yes, of course. I now have no place to live and all I have is 900 thousand Rupiah and my Smartphone.'
What am I most worried about?
'My sister. If he starts to assume that this is all his fault, I'm afraid to imagine what he'll do.'
I immediately took my phone and sent a message to my sister. I have to make sure he's okay.
[I'm fine Rina. You better follow what Dad and Mom say. Fight, don't give up.]
That's the message I sent him. I kept walking while praying, may my sister be fine and not do anything strange.
'Tabling!!!'
The incoming message was heard from my phone. I immediately opened and read the message.
[Indeed an older brother who can't be expected! Throwing away work for a game? It was fitting that my brother be expelled from the house! Oh yes, before worrying about me, think about your condition!]
"Hahaha.if he can still be this happy, he should be fine there."
I was glad to read my sister's message. Our personalities are quite different. I'm the stupid one and my smart sister. Of course we often quarreled and exchanged ridicule. Knowing he could still taunt me, I was sure he could already understand that my condition was fine.
After all, Rina was a smart girl with a very big dream. There was no way he could think of doing something stupid that could harm himself.
After removing my biggest worry, I began to think about what I should do right now.
'I need a place to stay, cheap cost is also not a problem. If possible, the cost is daily. After that, I need to find a capsule rental place to get to work.'
Yeah, I'm gonna prove to my family that Re:Life isn't just a game.
Because the price of the capsule is quite expensive, no wonder if some people choose to rent and not buy it.
After a while of searching, I finally got it. A boarding room with a daily rental fee that is quite cheap at the same time close to Re:Life capsule rental.
'Hmm. room rental costs cost 50 thousand per day, while for capsule rental costs reach 20 thousand per hour. If I decide to play at least 12 hours per day starting from the morning then my expenses... mmm?'
Not wanting to bother, I immediately opened the calculator application on my phone.
'290 thousand Rupiah per day huh? If I eat cheap food with a budget of 10 thousand rupiah per day..didn't I only survive for 3 days?' I screamed in my heart.
I was very surprised by the results of this calculation. I doubt a little, lest there be any errors in his calculations? After several recalculations, the result remains the same 3 days.
'Alright, I will use these 3 days as best I can. If I fail, then I'll start over. Apologizing well to my family and looking for a new job.'
That's the decision I made.
After everything was decided, I immediately headed to the location of the room's boarding house and immediately rented it. It was late at night and I was so exhausted that I went to bed just after entering my room.
The room is quite simple, has an area of 3 x 3 meters, with a small mattress in the corner of the room, 1 fan and a table and chairs. The window is next to the entrance.
The next day, I bought instant noodles and I cooked in the boarding kitchen. Although it tastes quite good, it costs only 3000 Rupiah. I can eat 3 instant noodles in a day and only spend 9000 rupiahs. Drinking water is available for free in the kitchen and hallways of the room.
After eating and drinking, I immediately headed to the capsule rental place Re:Life. This place is managed directly by the official Re:Life branch of Indonesia. After making the transaction to rent the capsule for 12 hours, I asked Rina first. He seems to be doing well and is currently at school. I feel so relieved.
"Everything is in order, now my fate depends on my own efforts." I said to myself.
After closing my eyes inside the capsule, my consciousness moved to the virtual world.
World Re:Life.
In my heart I still doubt a little.
Can I reverse my fate by doing this?
