Chapter 82: Average Weekday (1/2)

"So, that thing you were excited for yesterday, how did that go?" Donovan asked with so curiosity

"It went really well" Arthur said while letting out a slight chuckle, "I'ive some context before I tell you what I did"

For the drive ho relevant mechanics and details first, such as how NPC interaction worked, and the behaviour of Kyle, alongside his own history with the NPC he used as a target He then described in detail the elaborate plan that he had put intoarrested and then fra him for murder

"Oh that poor kid" Donovan was a little concerned at what he was hearing, but it was still pretty funny to hear "Like father, like son"

They eventually arrived ho his house He ran up to his roo his co if his friends were online

It seemed that Quinn and Holly were currently online, but Acai and Maria e in their group chat asking what they were up to, and he received a a a short break

Arthur received a e from Maria with the address and time, and an extra note that informed him there wasn't a strict dress code That last part was so Arthur appreciated, he found that dress codes were obnoxious, and he disliked black tie events in particular

Arthur joined the voice chat, and a fewwith Holly Acai hadn't joined yet, but he sent aeveryone that he'd be on sometime later Eventually Arthur's father and sister cao have dinner with them

"So, Donovan told me you accepted an invitation for a tea party" Arthur's father spoke up, but his questioning carried a slight teasing tone "Did a lovely lady finally catch your interest?"

"A, is our little Art all grown up now?" Anna joined in with the teasing "Who's the lucky girl?"

"No, nothing like that" Arthur ive either of them any satisfaction "I've made a few friends at the facility, and one asked us to join their family's tea party I didn't see a reason to refuse"

"Oh? That's a first" His father's face lit up with surprise, but he didn't ask any more questions Anna also lost interest pretty quickly when she saw that Arthur wasn't reacting with eirls

Dinner had ended, and after cleaning up after himself, Arthur made his way back up to his room When he checked to see as still around, he noticed that Quinn had gone to play another gaether and Acai wasn't on yet Instead of playing gah his workout routine, hoping that by the time he finished, everyone would have returned

As he was co the last few reps of his workout, he received a couple notifications on his phone that told him Acai had finally returned It seeah the ga questions about what they planned on doing within New Genesis One of the major points he was curious about was their intended play style or build

Arthur's group consisted of threeif either of theic classes Even if they decided on the spot, Arthur knew that it was highly likely they would change their opinion once they got in ga a role Instead he made sure to specify that they should choose what sounded fun and that they were co

From the sounds of it, Quinn wanted to play more of a support role, and when Arthur told him he could be a tank and healer at the sa a whip or a bow, but also wanted to use ic archer in her head, but was also still thinking about using a whip, at least as a side weapon
