White Online

Chapter 226 - Breaking News



Chapter 226 - Breaking News.

Isaac entered the living room, where Maxwell, Isabella, and Mark were gathered around the sofa.

Maxwell and Isabella were sitting on the sofa coated in soft animal fur.

Mark was sitting alone on another sofa that was in the color of brown but was soft enough to almost bury Mark inside.

Isaac sat next to Mark and ruffled his soft black hair.

Mark closed his eyes with satisfaction, and once the soft hand disappeared from his head, he continued playing with his phone.

''Honey, isn't it time for Mark to go bathing?'' Maxwell asked after seeing Isaac arriving.

Isabella glanced at the clock and saw the time crossing the 7 P.M mark.

''Ah right.'' She stood up and clapped her hands which attracted Mark's attention.

''Bath time!''

''Ah, lame.'' Mark stuffed the phone into his pocket, and before he left for a bath, he looked at his big brother and asked, ''What did you do in White Online?''

Isaac saw his little brother's sparkling eyes while Maxwell and Isabella kept shaking their heads, hoping that Isaac doesn't talk about the game, so Mark won't feel more impatient to play it.

''Well…'' Isaac scratched his head and said, ''I fought a guy who can blast fire beams from his eyes.'' He made a circle with his index finger and thumb and covered his eye with it.

Mark exclaimed in surprise and kept hopping in one place while hoping that Isaac would continue telling the tale.

''First, his eyes glowed in bright red. It was like the light of an ancient predator that was hiding in the darkness.'' After seeing Mark's excitement, Isaac smiled, ''And, once the predator attacked its prey, death followed.''

''Was it powerful?!'' Mark asked in a hurry.

''Mark, it's time to bath.'' Isabella arrived next to Mark and grabbed his frail arm, but Mark didn't want to move.

''Yes… Very powerful.'' Isaac nodded and showed an image of an explosion with his hands, ''With one blast of the heat vision, trees were blown to pieces and mountains crumbled.''

''Waaah!'' Mark shouted with excitement and was soon dragged away by Isabella.

Maxwell watched as Isabella and Mark left; once they started walking up the stairs, he turned his head back towards Isaac.

''Have you… Checked the forums yet?'' Maxwell asked.

Isaac bit his lip and nodded, ''I have…''

Maxwell nodded and didn't pry any further into the topic.

The TV Screen suddenly changed, and words Breaking News popped out on the screen.

Maxwell crossed his legs and looked at the TV with a concentrated expression.

On the TV.

A middle-aged man was sitting alone in front of a curved table.

He had a professional attire with a gentle smile as he started telling the news, but it wasn't ordinary news; instead, Breaking News!

On top of the screen, the words Breaking News were coated in reddish colors.

''Today's Breaking News will be about White Online!'' The middle-aged man said and shuffled the papers in his hands until the right paper was on top, ''Only ten minutes ago, we heard News about the new White Online Update arriving on Friday!''

''What?!'' Isaac exclaimed, and Maxwell was as well shocked.

'So, what Darth was saying was truth…' He leaned on the sofa's soft backrest and started thinking about what could happen.

Maxwell leaned closer to the TV and listened closely with perked ears.

''Arthur hasn't made an Official Announcement yet, but it might come tomorrow, so be prepared, folks, something big is happening.''

After those words, the Breaking News ended, leaving citizens and Players of White Online excited.

''Excuse me, I have to go make a few calls.'' Maxwell stood up and tightened his collar before leaving the living room and rushing towards his office.

Isaac also stood up and slowly started walking towards the stairway, but before that, he saw something strange outside of the mansion.

He went to the window to peek outside and was sure that he didn't see it wrong.

Next to the door was a hangers, where all sorts of winter jackets were hanging.

Isaac put his shoes on and grabbed his coat. With swift movements, he put it on and pulled the zipper all the way to his neck.

Once he was dressed, he opened the front door and left the mansion.

A cold winter air flew past Whitelock's Residence, sending snowflakes flying around.

Isaac had to cover his eyes but slowly managed to keep moving forwards.

Next to the metal gates was a large snow pile, which was piled up after servants left to their homes, and there was no one to take care of them.

Bodyguards were making their yard tour to check that everything was alright.

After seeing Isaac, they were surprised but didn't ask questions from their young master and continued their work.

Isaac stopped in front of the snow pile, and in there, he saw an owl.

A sharp hooked bead was peeking through the snow pile while the owl's round eyes looked straight at Isaac.

''It's Snowy Owl…'' Isaac touched the Owl's feathers, and it didn't look scared, instead allowed him to keep touching.

''Isaac?'' He heard his mother's voice coming inside the mansion.

The Owl also turned its large head towards the door, and Isaac saw how abnormally the head moved.

''Owls are fascinating…'' After taking one last look at the owl, he started walking away, leaving the Owl alone.

But, even after he left, the Owl kept looking at him with a mysterious look.

After entering the mansion.

Isaac spoke with his mother, and after that, he returned to his warm room.

He quickly packed everything he needed for his trip.

Clothes, laptop, phone, charger…

Isaac saw his Flintlock Pistol but didn't take it with him. Instead, he went to the wardrobe and looked at the black box for several minutes.

''Yeah… I can't stop playing.'' He grabbed the black box and tried to put it inside the bag.

At first, it was a tight fit, but he managed to do so in the end, and his packing was completed.
