Axie Online

Chapter 2 - An Unexpected Gift

Since that day, the day when Rudy was hit by a black sedan in order to protect a small child who was crossing. Rudy has been hospitalized for approximately 3 weeks. His right arm and 2 ribs were broken, which resulted in Rudy being hospitalized.

"Boring ...."

Complaining about that, Rudy turned on the tv in his room to get rid of the boredom that hit him. Unfortunately, this is not very effective. Rudy only watched boring tv programs with empty self-actualization. It's been three weeks, but he hasn't been allowed back to his apartment by the doctor. Rudy had to rest for a whole month, which was him having to languish in this boring little room for another week.

No one understands whether Rudy can survive or not. bad culinary, unattractive spectacle, not allowed to leave the room, that's what Rudy is feeling right now. His friends and lecturers already knew that Rudy had an accident so he had to be treated at a hospital, that's why he was counted as sick. Instead, he permanently loses valuable time studying.

"Rudy, how are you?"

"Harris?"

"Of course, who else is it?"

While Rudy was enjoying his boredom, Haris suddenly appeared as long as the entrance was carrying a medium-sized box. Harris, a man with a handsome face, dark red hair, and black eyes. the man in front of him was one of the few friends Rudy had on campus.

"I thought you were the stalker who was on the news all the time!"

"Huh? How can you think of me like that."

Responding to Rudy's words, Haris walked to a chair beside the patient's bed. They talked about the various lessons in the previous class. Because Rudy didn't absorb anything related to the subjects he took for college. Sometimes they also talk about the girls in their class.

Of course, this dialogue is a must for male students who are climbing the ladder of maturity like the two of them. The girls in their class can be said to be 90% beautiful which can invite students from other majors to envy, but it's all inversely proportional to using Rudy. He is not at all interested in the girls in his class. Even Rudy once said 'what's the point of dating if it ends up breaking up? Sorry, I better prepare myself for the future. For that reason, Rudy is often said to be very strange by his other friends.

"By the way, what is that box you brought, Haris?"

"Hm? Ah, this? I was entrusted by a beautiful blonde woman at the entrance of the hospital. This is the end for you."

Haris put the box on the student's lap who was sick earlier. Rudy raised his left hand and shook the box a few times before confirming its contents. it could be a bomb. however, it seems unlikely that there is relatively tight security in hospital technology today. Out of curiosity, Rudy started trying to open it using the only hand he could use freely. Despite the difficulty, Rudy was still able to open it with the help of Haris. when it opened, they were both shocked speechless.

"T-That...."

“S-Solid Gear?”

Not only Solid Gear, in the box there is a set of supporting equipment to play the virtual Reality Full Dive game which is being known by many people globally. A small device that can fit into a medium-sized box. Rudy and Haris widened their eyes as wide as possible.

"This is... a dream, right?"

"I don't think so, Rudy."

"How do you understand?"

"I just pinched my own cheek."

Rudy gave Haris a low-key look. what Rudy meant was his dream, not Haris' dream. Is Haris old-fashioned or is he deliberately pretending to be old-fashioned to make Rudy laugh? Most likely so, maybe it was because Haris had never seen Rudy laugh as a result of producing such a joke. In contrast to what is needed, Rudy actually wants to beat Haris right now.

Ignoring Haris, Rudy started to lift Solid Gear's helmet and looked at it accurately. On the back near the neck, he finds a collision that says "Ultimate Edition". After seeing that, Rudy is even more surprised to find the Solid Gear helmet he is currently holding. Don't forget in the previous tv program that Solid Gear Ultimate Edition is Solid. Gear limited edition which is only produced one hundred pieces per country. Unlike other Solid Gear, Ultimate Edition has very strong durability and its internet connection as a result can be used anytime and anywhere.

In addition, Solid Gear Ultimate Edition can also access the internet live in gamesplay when wearing it. It was like playing a game, but being able to skate on an outside global website. The price is also much more expensive than regular Solid Gear, 70,000,000 Earth Federation Money for one Solid Gear Ultimate Edition.

Of course, this price is a fantastic price for poor students like Rudy and other students. Rudy still doesn't understand, why would someone give this to a stranger who looks like him? Items as expensive as this are items that are not as practical to use as banknotes to beggars.

"Ah, that's right Rudy, that woman also left a letter for you for you."

Haris delivered a letter that was packaged in an envelope to the friend.

"Hmm?"

Rudy found the letter and opened it, then began to read it carefully.

to Rudy Alexander,

Mr. Rudy, I am sending this out of gratitude for what you did earlier. Do you still forget the events 3 weeks ago? Did you help a small 3-year-old child from being hit by a speeding black sedan on the side of the road at that time? That little boy is my son. I really thank you for what you did back then. then to express my gratitude, I think all this is not relative. Therefore, when you have managed to healthy, will you contact my personal email? I want to thank you exclusively. Thank you for your attention, I wish you a speedy recovery, Mr. Rudy.

Best regards, Rachel Axies.

"Impossible!!"

Rudy and Haris screamed hysterically when they saw the name on the bottom right corner of the letter.

Both of their eyes widened when they realized that the sender of this box meant Rachel Axies.

Of course, they were surprised, it was because Rachel Axies was the only founder of the Axie Corporation in the earth federation.

Although there are many Solid Gear brands in various countries, this device belongs to Axie Corporation, it is indeed preferred because its features are still the most advanced among other Solid Gears. Being one of the big companies to discover and introduce the Reality Full Dive dream technology device as well as Solid Gear for the first time, of course, Axies Corporation is also the center of that production.

"Th- This is a lie, isn't it? Rachel Axies? The founder of the Axie Corporation? And you saved her child?"

"I also didn't know if what I saved was his child! I only saved a small child who was in danger in front of me, that's all!"

"But still you did save Rachel Axies' child! Don't you understand who she is?"

"I understand that too, shrimp brain!"

"Huh!? What did you call me just now!?"

"I called you 'shrimp brain'! Huh!? You don't like it, shrimp brain !?"

"I'll beat you up, sick man!"

"Come here if you dare, you 'shrimp brain'!"

The two of them unknowingly objected to each other because of such trivial matters.

"Excuse me."

When Haris stood up and grabbed Rudy's shirt who was about to hit him, and Rudy who had clenched his left hand to get ready to punch his friend, a friend came into Rudy's patient room.

The nurse could only smile wryly at the fight between the two of them. As a result, two people were satisfied and ended the experience earlier.
