2022-05-18 00:12:05At night, Rowan met Alex again.
"It appears that our meeting was predestined," Alex said.
"Yes, it's a fate for us. Is there any news regarding the thing I asked?". Rowan was Impatient.
"Although it cost me 2 of my soldier's life, we managed to secure the posters and there is indeed one for a man named Henry. I don't know if he is the same person you are looking for but he is an old man with white hair and a Mark on his neck" Alex responded calmly."Yes, that's uncle Henry. I'm so glad that he managed to survive." Rowan was really happy about it. He almost started jumping in happiness, but then he remembered Ali told him to keep calm always, else the other party will take advantage of him." Thank you for your help. I don't know how, but I'll repay you for the sacrifice of the two soldiers". Rowan said calmly.
Alex became surprised because he can see Rowan forcefully suppressing his emotions rather quickly. "There must be someone behind him," Alex thought.
"So, my friend did you try to use your locket?." Alex wanted to know the answer because it is the most important thing for his plans.
"Yes but I couldn't find anything. It's just a locket with a mirror. I can't find any abnormalities about it.". Rowan felt helpless. Because it's also something he needs for returning to his planet.
"Why don't we try this inside the dream world?" Alex suggested.
When Rowan open the locket, there was suddenly a mirror appeared in the dream world. It was giant and the images kept changing but it gave them their reflection. It was like their background keep changing. Rowan slowly touched the mirror and his hand went inside. He quickly pulled it back. But when Alex tried to enter, he couldn't.
They have done a lot of experiments but Alex couldn't make his hands go inside."Give me your hand, let's try to enter together". Alex finally came up with a plan.
When they tried together, they both managed to enter.
"It looks like I need your help to enter. Let's go.".
The world inside the mirror was almost same the as the dream world. Except there were only 3 mirrors with an image.
Suddenly a warning sound can be heard."ALERT!!!"
"Presence of another system detected"
"Entering defence mode"
"System managed to isolate the unknown system"
The warning signals stopped and the entire mirror world lighted up.
Suddenly Alex's locket can be seen covered in lights. It almost looked like the locket got sealed by light.
While Alex was wondering what happened to his locket. Something strange happened to Rowan. He got to see a window with little information about him. And the same voice can be heard.
"System restarting"
"Host detected"
"Scanning for host level."
"Scanning completed"
Status:
Hostname: Rowan
Race: Human
Host level: 0
Achievement unlocked: 0
Title unlocked: 0
System function Unlocked: 1
Mirrors unlocked: 3"
Rowan became amazed. He never thought there would be an AI inside the mirror world.
"Can you tell me what this locket is?"
Rowan asked the system
"Unauthorised to answer. For answering this question, the host should be at least level 1. The host doesn't meet the requirement."
Rowan became a little disappointed.
Suddenly system issued a mission.
Alert: a new mission has been issued.
Mission: Help Alex to reboot his system.
Mission hint: Due to system intervention, Alex's system will automatically reboot once you leave the mirror world.
Reward: 100exp
"What?. It's that simple?" Rowan didn't think it was too easy to complete the first mission.
"Hey Rowan what are you doing there?. Come here and check the mirrors".
Alex called Rowan towards a mirror.Inside the mirror, an image of earth can be seen. But it was blurry.
"It's earth, I saw the pictures on the internet. Does it mean, this mirror can take as to earth?".
But when Rowan touched it, he couldn't go inside.
"Warning. Unauthorised access.
Required level: level 1 ""Hey Rowan what with the face, why are you absent-minded. Is there something wrong?. Alex became worried.
But Rowan simply smiled "Alex do you want to see magic ?. Just come with me outside and I'll show you" Rowan forcefully took Alex put.
When they came to the dream world. The light on Alex locked removed and Alex showed a weird face.
After some time Alex showed an excited face.
"Haha Alex, how is it ?. Did you also get a system. And what is your first mission?".
Rowan was really happy.Alex smiled and said "It's better than I expected. I only thought I will somehow be able to teleport to your planet. But it looks like I also gained a lot. I'm level 2. I passed 2 missions.
The first one is for helping you to reboot your system. The second one is a hidden mission.
The system said I managed to use the locket without the help of the system, it considered it as completing the hidden mission. There is also an achievement unlocked. It's a kinda weird name but it said by completing the hidden mission, I managed to unlock the achievement "the detective: there is nothing as a secret for the detective".And Rowan please accept the request I'm sending you".Suddenly Rowan's system gives a pop-up message
"The Dream mirror asked your permission to set a gateway. Do you accept the request?".
"What is it ?. How can Alex have so much power?. He only manages to reboot the system after me. It's not fair. Locket, please tell me why Alex has more options ?.
Rowan was rather unhappy.But the system didn't give any reply. only repeated the same message.
"The Dream mirror asked you permission to give it to set one gateway. Do you accept the request?".
"Yes, I accept" Rowan accepted the request.
But nothing happened after that.But Alex can be seen as really happy.
"Hey, Alex what was that ?. How can your system request something to mine?.
Why I'm still level 0?. While you are level 2 already. And what is that request for".Rowan was a little angry.Alex smiled and said "It's just a gateway. I got this as a reward for unlocking an achievement. From now I can go to your planet and mine as I please. I can even bring people with me."
Rowan became even angrier
"System, I'm asking where is my reward?. I completed the reward, why I didn't get any reward?.""Host doesn't have authority to get the reward in dream space. System recommend the host to exit the world.".
Finally, rowan became calm. It looks like he needs to go wake up to get his rewards.
Alex suddenly walked near Rowan and patted his shoulder.
"Friend its looks like time is almost up, let's meet the other side" Alex smiled as the world started to fade.Rowan finally opened his eyes.

Chapter 40 - Meeting (1)
Everything moved too quickly. Nobody anticipated the Gama family to discover one of the Chain's military bases, let alone start a war.Planet Green launched an effective strike. Because the Chain lacked many weapons and elite men, the Gama swiftly took control.The Gama came, killed every single one of Chain's warriors, and even captured the rumoured famous Mx X, as was seen by viewers watching live streaming.Nobody anticipated the Gama to be so brutal. They killed everyone except Mr X. They sent him to a random planet, and the Gama family made his whereabouts public.It said that Mr X is already the target of bounty hunters. Some people have already begun to pursue Mr X.The Gama sent a strong message.

Chapter 39 - Actions speak louder than words
The person was Mark, Rowan's father.Everyone thought he was long dead until the Chain issued a reward for his head.He quickly walked towards the hologram projection.It didn't take much time before the hologram showed the news."Hello everyone. It's Miya from G-news. Today we have a guest from the Gama family, Johnson. "The reporter from G-news was a famous person. Her cute face and voice helped her to gain a lot of fans."It's Miya. She is with the Gama family now. I'm sure there is really something important there. "People in the pub started talking."Hello everyone, I'm Johnson from the Gama family. Thank you for having me. "Johnson introduced himself."Mr Johnson, We all know how your family and the Chain are now in conflict, and it's getting worse. Since the Gama chose to be silent, we all thought the Chain gained some upper hand or is your family forced to make a statement?"She didn't hold back and asked the question that hurt the Gama most.Johnson became a bit displeased
Chapter 38 - To want to get fat with only one bite.
Mr X remained silent for a long time. His cigarette burnt slowly to ash."White Mask, what are your thoughts about the Mercks arriving here?"White Mask was taken aback. He needed a few minutes to recover from his astonishment."How is that possible, sir? Even if any of them did come here, how could they avoid our notice?"Mr X lighted a new cigarette and began smoking."I deduced that Ali or Rowan were not locals based on the details. They had to have appeared lately, or otherwise, the slaves would have recognised them. And based on the current attack pace, I'm convinced they'd just arrived."Mr X inhaled deeply and proceeded."It appeared to be some Mercks managed to come here. If our intelligence were right, Mark had a son named Little Mark, but what most people don't know is his real name is Rowan. From what I can see, it must be Mark's son."The white mask was at a loss and didn't know what to say."But even if it's Mark's son, what use do we have?"From Mr X's excited expression
Chapter 37 - MR X (2)
"The Mercks are alive?" Mr X couldn't believe it. He started to replay the video again and again.The white-masked man became worried. He never saw Mr X act in this manner."Sir, there is no evidence at all. It's just random talk. Please don't take it in mind. We saw how the planet Merck was blown. There was no one there. Everything turned to ash. We saw it with our own eyes. It's just some random guy's assumptions. "The white-masked man anxiously waited for Mr X to speak.Mr X finally stopped his activities."White mask. We have a few prisoners, right? Through torture, hypnosis, drugs, or whatever methods you use, find out everything they know about Alex, John, Ali, and Rowan. I want it done immediately. "The white mask finally got the spirit back. Mr X became serious, which means they were going to start the battle."Also, send me every detail about the last attacks. I want to analyse everything. "With that, they entered a drone and left. Even inside the plane, Mr X kept watching
Chapter 36 - MR X
" This again? How did it happen? There is not even a body left. They told me this planet was a simple barbarian planet, and the mission would be easy. Now, look. Our members are dying without even knowing how. This place must be cursed. I hope I can leave this place soon. "A soldier told his companion. But his companion was shaking, and his face almost lost colour. He was terrified.Before the soldier could know why his friend was so scared, he heard a voice."A cursed place? Hmm. That's a reasonable point. If people started to disappear without any trace, there must be something similar to a curse. White mask, note it down. It may come in handy.""Noted, sir," the white-masked man replied, and they both went inside the camp."Hey, who is that black-masked man, and why is he acting mysterious and weirdly?"The soldier asked his friend."Shh. Lower your voice. It's the legendary Mr X. ""What did he do? Why is he famous? ""Don't tell me you've never heard of the Merck family. Ah, Ah
