Chapter Nineteen

My thoughts are much clearer the next morning. I pour myself a huge bowl of Apple Jacks even though I have no idea why kids like it. It doesn’t taste anything like apples. Also, don’t judge me. I’m a man. I’m level 99. I eat what I want for breakfast.

With every crunchy, delicious bite I surf and read more about 86-Neon. I know from my brief foray with the free-to-play demo that it’s an immersive cyberpunk MMO, still playing in a similar manner to King’s League. More guns and grenades, fewer swords—though there are swords. And barbed wire baseball bats, a wide assortment of stimulants that work like potions and futuristic looking cars instead of horses. When I say futuristic, I mean what people from the 1980’s thought the future would look like. It’s all very Blade Runner.

Items in King’s League are usable in 86-Neon, and vice versa, they just change appearance and in some cases, change effect. I have no idea how my Graydon’s pieces will look or work once I log in to the expansion realm. Before any of that can happen, before I can exact my revenge, I have to figure out who my target is. If I go into the Cyberpunk Realm trying to mete out justice on whoever I happen to run across that would not only be bad for me, it could potentially cause a backlash against the much larger Fantasy Realm. The last thing the game needs is another turf war between people who feel their own favorite flavor of King’s League has been slighted. When 86-Neon first came out, I remember there was a huge problem with King’s League vanilla players griefing the people trying to explore the new world. One of the few times the devs came in and put some governors in place to keep things from spiraling out of control.

The trouble is, I don’t have much to go on to find out who Barthos works for.

My biggest clue is the name Cygnus. It was he who requested an audience with Dirk using those suicided players on my steps. And his name was the only thing listed as a return address on the package containing my… gift. Maybe it’s smoke and mirrors, but I’m not ruling out the possibility that Cygnus is who I’m after. Like he’s just a little too proud to not have his name out there.

I put my phone down and consider whether to search for Cygnus using my VR set. I’ve spent all this time reading about 86-Neon on my phone—mainly from the official account’s page.

The VR set is faster, but I kind of wanted a second bowl of cereal. I decide that my balanced breakfast is enough for the day and get my kit ready. I make sure my phone’s ringer is turned all the way up, just in case Brian—or now Stoneburner—needs to get a hold of me.

I double check to make sure the King’s League app is set to alert me to any disturbances with my character.
