Chapter 10: Take the future into your own hands
[Zamira Smoczyca Lv. 10(Sealed) - Main Skill - Flames Of Truth(SSS)(P)]
[Alice Smoczyca Lv. 10(Sealed) - Main Skill - Water Of Infinity(SSS)(P)]
Max's eyes widened, twinkled, and remained like that until the door's bell rang in the house. He blinked, then looked to the side.
Alice's voice thundered from the other room, "What was that sound?! The enemy is here?!"
Max couldn't help but chuckle as he heard those words, "It's a delivery man. He brought your clothes."
"Those delivery men! What kind of sound do they use?! Idiots!" Alice stomped on the ground before getting rebuked by her sister.
Max whispered, "It's my house's sound…"
After opening the door, Max smiled at the delivery man. The same guy had passed him his first Virtual Reality Helmet. Those guys worked really fast and efficiently, which was indeed amazing.
Max smiled, revealing his white teeth, "Thanks. You don't know how you've saved me some troubles."
"Ah, well. It's my job," the delivery man belatedly replied. He thought Max had a twin or someone else had taken over his body as he looked much different. However, that was the result of having someone around him.
Of course, he had vented out his feelings in the tutorial. He had also truly realized the potential of his copious mana. However, the fact that he had someone around him significantly affected his good mood.
Max just grew to hate silence after his grandpa's death.
And while he hadn't realized it yet, the combination of the twins' peculiar personalities was a good fit and a cure to his loneliness. The blue dragon was loud and quite sassy, while the red dragon was softer and more responsible.
That combination made enough sound and presence in his house. In fact, that was just too perfect a combination.
And because of that, the troublemaker Alice was unconsciously in the same spot as her clear-headed elder sister, even though it seemed like Max might not like her at all.
"The new game is pretty interesting. You should try it out whenever you find time," Max smiled at the delivery man.
For a response, he received a bright smile, "I can see the results of the first dive. Thanks, and I will surely check it out later! Have a good day, dear client!"
"You too," Max replied before closing the door.
He lifted his eyes, only to blink them rapidly, "What are you two doing?"
On the other side of his house, the twins had been clutching the door frame tightly with their slender fingers. Their foreheads and eyes reared to peek at Max and the delivery man's talk.
Zamira whispered, "I told you it was a delivery man. Look at that big box."
"I have to be cautious in your place sometimes! You believe in him too much!" Alice replied while squinting her eyes at Max.
Then, these two noticed Max's eyes gazing at them as if he saw two troublesome kids. Oddly enough, one of them acted precisely like that.
Alice quickly hid, running away into her room.
Zamira revealed herself wholly. She still was naked, but her two hands were gently joined around her private area. She bowed, apologizing for their behavior.
It was all Alice, yet Zamira also took the blame. Inwardly, she knew that it was inappropriate of them to show too much distrust since Max was like a gift from heaven to them.
Max smiled, "Since we have clothes, you can try them on. Call back your little sister."
"Yes," Zamira nodded softly before whispering, "Thank you."
Max faintly smiled.

While the girls tried on their new clothes, Max focused on the news going on on the TV. That news was all about the game.
First, many people questioned how exactly it worked as the other side was too real-like.
Max didn't even bother himself with those questions.
And then, the reporter told the game stats. This game became the most played game in the world just in an hour! The stats were so absurd that the company behind it made bank or would make even more as they introduce new stuff.
Max whispered, "It's a win-win. They have a game they can monetize in every aspect and a factory for real players."
The blue dragon said as she glared at Max with shimmering eyes, "Did you say something?"
Max peeked at her, then chuckled, "You want me to buy proper stuff for you, don't you?"
Because of her pride or whatever, Alice didn't ask again for cute clothes. But now that she saw her sister with a different look, her heart trembled with jealousy. She wanted cute dresses that would match the theme.

What had Alice planned next? Well, she didn't plan anything. She would let the conversation flow to decide her future; or her future self that would talk with Max in a few seconds.
She was a pretty simple girl.
But contrary to all her expectations, Max saw through her.
Alice gawked at him with puppy eyes.
Max thought for a second, then asked, "Can three families really seal you and make you part of their game?"
Alice turned to the side, requesting help from her elder sister. Depending on the answer, this question could make dragons look better or worse. For that sake alone, Alice didn't want to say anything wrong.
Zamira sighed, then whispered to her ear.
Alica nodded, "Those stupid humans can visit other worlds. They lucked out since we had been escaping from much stronger people.
People that can match dragons." Alice crossed her arms beneath her soft and abundant chest, shaping it male's eyes pleasure while looking pretty prideful herself.
Max chuckled, enjoying the sight as her thin clothes revealed her skin, "If three families could trap and enslave dragons, then the road would be quite long."
His grandpa died because Earth's classification was low. If people from such a world could match dragons, what about other worlds, let alone The Tower's residents?
Max thought about another possibility, though, "Are dragons weak?"
Zamira shook her head, "No. But the dragon slayers have become popular. They are really… a weird bunch."
Max spotted a deep sadness within her red eyes. He inferred that those guys caused too much disaster for dragons, possibly hurting the family of these two girls.
He didn't promise anything, though.
Instead, Max whispered, "You are no longer trapped, so you two can take your future into your own hands."
Even the usual loud Alice stared at Max with big eyes, her image of him significantly changing.
