The Earth After Rebirth

Kiro nodded slowly, patting his friends back who thought this was all a dream. Felix also stood dumbfounded at the balance, he had been at the mines all this time until now, he had a good haul.

"I know what I said, in our group chat, but my P.Is haven\'t returned yet. We need to show these guilds that they need us, in order to do that is through information!" Kiro said passionately.

"You just want to go spend your money don\'t you?" Nikolai asked shaking his head.

"Haha, it\'s obvious then? You rich folks wouldn\'t understand. You can\'t."

"Leader, I expect that we play every day for the 2 weeks we will be off from school." Nikolai demanded.

"I promise, I\'ll make it up to you."

Just like that, he let them go. They all decided to log out. Since school was to be out in a few days anyway, they\'d agreed that, playing while at home would be more relaxing.

They were also waiting for their exam results. There was also that bit of stress.

"Ki, I don\'t know what to do, what should we do. This is a lot of money, I feel like it\'s a trap, won\'t they arrest us as soon as we use it?" Hiro asked.

"You have an overactive imagination Hiro, but I don\'t blame you, I wouldn\'t put it past our society to do something like that. But let\'s go look at houses?"

They hurried down to the library, the computers were there, they had to use them as they didn\'t have personal computers of their own. In this society you could buy anything, including houses online.

They started browsing through the upper district, the district was huge. They were now confused more than ever about which neighbourhood to buy from.

They didn\'t know the ins and outs of the upper, they never really bothered to learn about it to such an extent.

"Need help?"

They looked up, it was Ishaan.

"Are you following us?"

He roared with laugher. Quickly stopped when the librarian gave him the most vicious stare.

"No, but I can see you\'re struggling to get a house. My street built 5 new estates in the past year. Though each estate costs 500 million creds. As the land is about 50 acres."

"Oh, that\'s doable. I thought you\'d say 100 billion or something!" Hiro said wearing a relief expression.

"Haha, well then I suggest my street. It has some of the richest people in Sanctauri. So it\'s security is second to none. But the downside is that, Isaac also lives there, I know you two don\'t get along."

Hiro looked at Kiro expectedly. He was ready to follow his best friend wherever he decided to go.

"We don\'t mind. We don\'t care about that little brat. As long as he doesn\'t bother us, I won\'t bother him." He said with conviction.

\'That\'s if they can survive my revenge.\' He added internally.

Then they looked through Ishaan\'s neighbourhood. Somehow Kiro hoped that Isla also lived there.

They each bought their estates. The houses were huge, with 10 bedrooms, 8 of which had their own toilets. A big kitchen, a dining hall, a lounge, a theatre room where you could watch films with 20 people, a VR pod room, a gym. A pool and a garden outside.

The lands had a huge garden and a lot of trees planted all around the estate.

At the back there was a big two storey building, with units numbered from 1 to 10, in case the owners wanted their help to live within the estate. The building had stairs on each side.

Each unit had 3 bedrooms, 2 toilets, a kitchen and a lounge, so it was spacious. There was even a lake. Hiro picked one that was next door to Kiro\'s. He said no matter what he wanted to be next door to him.

These estates were so big that your next door neighbour would be 10 minutes away, by foot. Kiro put the house in his dad\'s and mum\'s name. He couldn\'t own a house before they did.

When he explained his reasoning to Hiro, he did the same, even though his dad was missing. Officially the houses were owned by their families, they could move in immediately. The title deeds were emailed to each of them.

"It feels like I just did something heavy, like scratching an itch that has been bothering me all day, and now the heavy burden has been lifted. I suddenly feel so light!" Kiro went on a rumble.

He continued to browse the Internet. He kept getting pop ups about the state of Sanctauri. Apparently there were riots in some parts of the country because of this game.

People who couldn\'t afford it wanted to play it too, so they wanted to take it by force. Kiro didn\'t judge, he understood them.

"What do you think of this?" Hiro asked.

"A mall? That\'s not a bad idea. Go on, buy it! This is something we will never stop needing as a society." Kiro shrugged and went back to his browsing.

Hiro saw that the owner wanted to sell the building, he was barely breaking even. He just wanted to take what he can and leave the business world. 100 million wasn\'t a bad deal, so he bought it.

"You\'re investing in a company like this? You\'re still very green, you can\'t just trust them!" Ishaan exclaimed, seeing Kiro inject over a billion of his money in a new company nobody has ever heard of.

He had bought over 60% of the company, it now belonged to him. Not entirely, but he didn\'t want to own all of it after all.

"I\'ll be alright." He gave him a wink.

Within 5 minutes the company sent him a lengthy email, thanking him for believing in them. Kiro put on a smirk, he couldn\'t wait for the chaos this one decision will cause.
