Chapter 3: Vol. 1 Chapter 3 - ‘Fantasia ‘2R-Seraphim’’
/The next morning, after a good rest Uhtred 'rose alongside the sun, as it 'rose and opened the day's morning, shining it's rays, pouring life and greeting this side of the planet, for the day./
/Location: Larkinson-Residence/

"Haha! You look like shit!" I say as I greet, my brother, Ves. Whom looks as if he has not rested, in the last 'forty-eight hours.
"Yea I stayed up late last night, working on my next 'variant, the 'Seraphim'." My brother told me, whilst 'yawning and stretching 'sleepily.
"Get some rest, I had 'ten-consecutive victories last night, bringing me into the 'Silver-Ranked league." I told Ves, while informing him, of my record for the evening, last night.
"Awesome! That will make the perfect advertisement for my 'mechs! Thank you, I'm going to sleep for a couple hours, then I will finish the 'Seraphim. See you later." Ves said before walking into his room and shutting the door.
"Looks like it is just me and you, Lucky, my 'robot-cat friend." I told the 'gem-cat, who was currently 'lounging on the sofa, acting exactly like a 'domestic-housecat.
"Meow?" Lucky meow'd, while 'cocking his head to the side, and looking at me almost 'questionably.
"I tell ya what, I will get on the 'galactic-net, and 'order you some 'exotics, I was planning on ordering a 'warhorse and all the 'cold-weaponry, I will need to practice my skills." I informed the 'robot-cat, I might have some 'tasty 'metal-snack, for him to 'feast on soon.
"Meow!" Lucky, made another 'cat-like noise, acting as if he were saying, "Fuck yea! You're alright human, I approve of your existence, now 'make'eth 'haste, 'procure'eth my 'vittles 'human-slave."
Then he just went back to 'lounging-out, on the sofa, just flicking and 'swishing his tail. Meanwhile, I pulled up the 'galactic-net on my 'personal-comms unit. I searched and purchased everything I needed, most would be shipped from other places on 'Cloudy-Curtain, including the 'warhorse. The 'exotic-metal 'snacks, for Lucky would have to be 'shipped from 'Planet-Bentheim. The 'snacks alone, took a 'fifty-thousand 'Bright-Credit 'chunk out of my almost a million credits.
The 'cold-weaponry and the 'warhorse, only cost twenty-thousand 'Bright-Credits. In less than three-days, I would have everything I needed to 'train and 'grind, my 'system-skills.
/After five hours had passed, Uhtred spent the time 'grinding his 'boxing-skill, and after finding that 'stones could be used for 'training his 'throwing-skills. Uhtred decided he had 'exercised enough, for the day, then he entered the home to make something to eat./
/povUhtred/
"Hey you're awake, make sure to eat something, before returning to your 'work." I said, as I met Ves in the 'living-area of the home. Who had 'messy-hair and looked like he slept like a 'rock.
"Yea, will do. I should have the 'Seraphim 'uploaded on 'Iron-Spirit', in no-time at all. I've added a 'flight-pack to the 'Fantasia, making it a 'aerial-marksman. I purchased the 'virtual-production license, for the 'Harconix 'Light-DMR, a 'rifle more powerful than a 'standard-assault rifle, but not as powerful as a 'sniper-rifle." Ves told me about his new 'variant-mech.
"Sounds perfect, I will buy a 'metal-alloy 'one-handed sword and 'round-shield, and maybe a couple 'metal-alloy 'javelins and a shoulder-bag, to carry them in." I told Ves, what I would gear my 'Seraphim, with as far as 'weaponry.
"'Javelins? Why not a 'firearm?" Ves asked in 'confusion.
"I am what is called, a 'cold-weaponry 'supremacist, 'weird I know, but it is what I am." I informed Ves, of my 'fetish for 'cold-weaponry, while 'whipping up a 'turkey-sandwich and some 'rice and gravy', for me and Ves to eat.
"Wow! Where did you learn to cook?" Ves asked, as he watched me, go about 'preparing our meal.
"From the woman, whom taught me how to 'pleasure females, Velma. She taught me how to cook, amongst other things." I answered Ves.
"She sounds nice, the food smells so good, I am hungry now, for sure." He said.
I continued cooking away, wasn't anything special, but the simplest of meals can be the best, if prepared correctly and with the right care. After the 'dinner was served, we both wiped out a 'healthy-helping, then went to our respective 'gaming-pods.

/Welcome 'Uhtred of BebbanBurg' back to 'Iron-Spirit'/

"Alright let's get a couple more matches in against these 'low-ranked, noobs, the 'Silver-ranks is only the 'real-beginning, of 'Iron-Spirit. The real opponents will not come until the 'Gold-ranks, at the soonest. Then I will buy the 'Seraphim, once Ves finishes 'publishing it on the 'mech-market." I say as I'm entering, the waiting-lobby for the 'silver-ranked matches, I will play whilst waiting for my second mech, to be 'fabricated and 'published for 'sale on 'Iron-Spirit'.
/Once Uhtred finished his 'sixth-victory, in the forty-minutes he waited, for the 'Seraphim to become available for 'purchase. After equipping the new 'mech at a cost of '88'000 'Bright-Credits and the 'cold-weaponry, Uhtred selected and 'purchased to equip on the 'light-mech, that 'defaultly-wielded a 'firearm as a 'aerial-marksman, will now use 'metal-alloy 'javelins as its 'ranged-weaponry instead.|
"Alright one more match, before going to sleep. Gotta get atleast one 'run-in, with my 'Seraphim before 'calling it a night." I said after 'signing-up for a 'Silver-Ranked 'Five-Vs-Five', 'Capture the Flag' match.
/Once the match loaded, the map, 'Scorcher's-Canyons, was drawn and 'selected for the match./
/Capture-the-Flag 'Match Starting Now../
/povMC/
"Time to get my 'advertisement on, will make a 'sweet-sight, a 'female-mech 'flying circles around her 'prey, picking and poking at her prey's weaknesses." I speak to myself, as I enter the 'field-of-battle, moving swiftly and gracefully.
Moving at 'max-efficiency, using the 'least-amount possible, of 'fuel, or 'energy, from 'power-supplies, like 'fuel-cell 'packs or 'battery-powered 'packs
/After Uhtred 'swept his competition, securing the 'victory for his team, and also obtaining a 'M-V-P award, for his performance as the 'most-valuable-player, of the 'capture-the-flag, 'five-versus-five. Uhtred decided to 'call-it a night, and he 'logged-off 'Iron-Spirit, after 'climbing-out of his 'gaming-cabin, Uhtred 'laid-down on his bed, then 'shortly-after he 'entered, his 'sleep for the 'evening./
