Charlus was led to a room where there was a huge circle with a complex design engraved in it. Charlus was sent to the centre of the circle. He was handed a piece of paper to read off.

"I swear in the name of the great Boreas that I will forget all memories of Eva Boreas and the Boreas Family. I will leave Los Angeles by the end of this week. May the ods witness this pledge."

Charlus read off the paper and saw the circle light up. It blinded him.

Charlus woke up and found himself in his bed. It was early in the morning. He got up and brushed his teeth. He then went into the kitchen. He saw Lucie there already.

"Is my breakfast ready?" Charlus asked Lucie.

"What do you mean? Are you not going to talk about how you vanished during school and just suddenly appeared now at your house?" Lucie was angry because she spent a lot of time looking for Charlus.

Charlus shrugged. "I don't know. I don't remember a wink about yesterday. Did I do something interesting?"

"You went after this girl. I heard you were seen with Eva Boreas. I guess Juan beat you senseless."

"Juan? Who's Juan? And who's Eva? Is she hot?" Charlus looked confused.

"What do you mean? Weren't you with her?" Lucie was confused.

"Ah forget it. I'll go to school today. I have to go back to Texas by the way. I am booking my tickets once I get back from school." Charlus stood up and got ready to leave. He left the apartment. Lucie was confused and ran after him.

"What do you mean by that? Are you stupid? You just attended for a single day. Why are you going back that quickly?" Lucie asked Charlus.

"I don't know. I think I have an important task. Anyways, please. I need some quiet."

Charlus just saw a message he hadn't seen before.

Charlus thought about it the entire day while in class. He was confused - how come he had not noticed this? Charlus was suddenly suspicious. He was missing his memories of the previous day and he was starting to notice all the gazes of everyone around him.

Charlus was walking in the hallway when he saw a figure that he thought he knew but did not recognize. He was about to call after her but didn't have a name.

He decided to ignore her. Eva also saw Charlus but she did not recognize him and just walked past him. The onlookers saw this but didn't comment. They distanced themselves from all affairs that were even remotely related to Eva because they were afraid of Juan.

This was a lot like how they felt with Bruce, but Juan was even scarier to them. He had actually caused a dozen students to leave the school because they were friends of Eva.

Charlus saw the people distancing themselves from him but shrugged. Before he exited the hallway, he saw someone stare at him. It was Brody.

The school came to an end and Charlus was able to reach home just in time for the System Update.

Charlus received an influx of information. He remembered everything that happened the previous day. He quickly stood up.

"What the hell! Shit! That happened?"

Charlus was very shocked by the previous day's events. He received another notification.

[New System Update]

[You can now increase in levels.]

[This is the System Update 1. More Updates will be received after System Update 1, which will be after player reaches Tier 2]

Charlus sat down on the couch and started thinking. He had no idea who these Chione Family members were but Charlus remembered how Ian Boreas talked about them with spite.

Charlus started organizing his inventory. He needed to be ready for war since he was going to start levelling up again. He suddenly heard the door open.

Lucie came in. "What did you mean by you are going back now?" She demanded an answer.

"I'm not going anymore. I changed my mind." Charlus spoke nonchalantly. "Do you know anyone with the last name Chione?"

"The Chiones? They have a lot of supermarkets in Los Angeles. They are a local superpower. And what do you mean changed your mind? 

Charlus started thinking. If they owned Supermarkets, he would maybe find some of the members he was supposed to defeat. Then he would move on to the next part of the quest.

Charlus took out his phone and started searching.

"What's the name of their store?" Charlus asked Lucie.

"Chione's." Lucie gave a short reply.

Charlus googled it. He found a couple of them around his location. They were both a kilometre from his apartment in the opposite direction.

"Do you know how to drive?" Charlus asked Lucie.

"Yes. But I don't have a car. I can't afford one."

Charlus shrugged. "Where's the nearest car dealership?"

"Why?" Lucie did not understand.

"Well, we are going to buy a car."
