Chapter 53 A Stronghold To Resist The Might Of Heavens



Seeing the sum shown on the phone, her eyes widened while her hands trembled. She just couldn\'t believe seeing such an astronomical sum right in front of her eyes.

However, it was then it hit her. What if this sum was stolen and her son had somehow done something he shouldn\'t have, thinking about this, she started to worry.

Therefore she shouted as she asked him,

"Did you rob a bank or something?",

However, Ray gave her no explanation as he stood motionless in front of her.

Meanwhile, seeing her son ignoring her question and standing there motionless, she thought that her fears were true. Thus she began to lose her temper,

"Young man! tell me how you got such a huge amount in your account", she asked in a questioning tone,

It was this question that pulled Ray out of his daze. He was scared stiff as he knew,

His mother was angry,

Truly angry,

Ray knew that whenever his mother called him by the words \'young man, she got truly angry.

He gulped and said,

"I didn\'t steal or rob",

"Then where did you get this much money from?", Ray\'s mother asked,

"I earned it",

"What?, you earned it?, then explain how you earned it and I won\'t be considerate if you lie", said Ray\'s mother,

While Ray on the other hand came clear about everything, from how he got the first mission and killed a pseudo-intermediate tiered beast, and obtained its spirit core, and how after that, he killed more pseudo-intermediate tier beasts while also obtaining their spirit cores.

He also told his mother of the auction house and how he auctioned all of the spirit cores for an astronomical amount of gold coins.

Ray went on and told her mother everything in detail, not once daring to skimp over anything. After all, Ray was very afraid of his mother when she got angry.

It took Ray some time to elaborate everything to his mother and by the time he finished, he was exhausted.

"Huff.. huff…, so that\'s how I got this much money in my account", Ray said amid pants.

To this, his mother said nothing and nodded.

However, Ray did not know what her mother felt right now, the whole explanation that Ray had given her on how he got the money was nothing short of a roller coaster ride.

From start to end, her heart threatened to jump out of her chest due to the fear brought by the explanation. After all, which mother would want their child to fight monsters with sharp teeth and tough bodies just so they could help their family to their best?

However, another emotion welled up in her and that was pride.

She was proud.

Proud of her son, his accomplishments, and how diligent he was just for the sake of the family. Most of all, she was proud that her little boy had finally started to grow up into an adult.

She was so happy that a drop of tear fell down her cheek. It was not one of sadness rather a tear of happiness bloomed along with the pride she felt in her heart for her son.

Saying nothing more, she hugged Ray and took him into her embrace, while she started to sob, releasing all the hardships she felt over the years after they were left all alone when Ray\'s father went missing.

Ray, on the other hand, did not resist his mother\'s embrace and confronted her. For even though he was overwhelmed, after all, he as the eldest son also felt the responsibility of family over his shoulders.

The mother and son duo embraced each other and let out their grievances as they finally let off the burden they carried in their hearts.

After some moments, Ray and his mother were seated on the sofa as they chatted about how they would utilize the money on hand.

"We should use some money on ourselves and move on to a better place", Ray suggested.

"That would be great, now that we have a good amount of money, we should also invest some as to have enough passive income to last us without doing anything",

Said Ray\'s mother,

Ray nodded and continued,

"I say we use some amount and invest in real estate while using a small percentage to invest in the stock market",

"Stock market is a bit risky though, are you sure you want to take the risk?", Ray\'s mom asked,

"Though, the stock market is risky. One can not benefit until one takes some risks. Moreover, I am not suggesting to put all our capital into the stock market", Ray said while his brain worked overtime to make plans on how he could make use of the money on hand.

Moreover, the money Ray had on him right now was enough for someone to live luxuriously for all their lives and still be left with a hefty sum of money.

However, there was one more thing Ray was concerned about, and that was not money or anything of that sort. Rather, it was of the upcoming series of apocalyptic events that would happen when the otherworldly invasions started.

After all, Ray knew from Aurora that Earth was being vied upon by various life forms from outer space due to various reasons. Reasons that even Ray was too weak to know at the moment and the only thing Ray knew was that he needed his strength to be safe in the future.

Therefore, Ray had many plans in his mind, plans that would let him cement his position on Earth when hell descended.

Thus, Ray had decided to use the money had on him to not only find his family a good and new place to settle in but also to build a stronghold that could resist even the might of the heavens falling.

Ray and his mother continued to make a plan while Ray also told his mother how he will soon be joining the Academy For System Users.

His mother was rather pleased by it and even encouraged him to join the academy.

However, Ray did not stop, he even urged his mother to rejoin System Online, so that they could play the game together while he would help her to become stronger.

After all, his mother was also from the generation when System Online had been rather new and she had also played it. However, she did not have many talents and family matters stopped her advancement in cultivation, leading her to leave her progress in pursuit of her children and their livelihood.

Ray\'s mother of course denied Ray\'s suggestion at first, as she gave various explanations for not rejoining the game. She even said to Ray who would take care of Katie and as such.

However, Ray did not back down and after pestering her for a total of fifteen minutes, he made her accept Ray\'s proposal and that too on her condition that she would log in and log out, with fixed timings so she could also take care of her family.

While Ray also agreed with her, after all, he did not want her to devote all her life to System Online, but only for her to become stronger in case some unexpected events occurred.

With this, everything was settled as an elaborate plan was formed in Ray\'s mind, this plan would lead to the start of Ray\'s journey to superiority when.

"All Hell Would Break Loose".
