My Favorite Game Followed Me!

Anton immediately removed everyone from his party system and added Devon, Frederick, and Colin. Since his Meditation, Prayer, and Vigor had always been active since everyone had been practicing magic, the three men began to heal rapidly.

Devon and Colin, who looked like they were at death’s door, began to revive, and in a minute, the three of them were fully healed even Frederick who was slightly wounded.

Since the three of them were dirtied with blood, instead of asking them what happened, Anders and Lucas commanded them to take a bath and after a few minutes, they were ready to tell everyone what happened.

“We were waiting for the food to be cooked when the restaurant was suddenly attacked by five men who were wearing tight black clothes. I noticed that their targets were us but because the two wolves met them immediately, a battle started. The two wolves were very powerful and cunning and the five men, although very powerful, were not able to bypass your summoned animals,” Devon said while Nemina was laying out the food that was stored in her and her husband’s spatial items.

Every member of Anton’s family had a spatial item since Anton suggested to his father that each one should have one and Anders had been generous enough to purchase one for each of them. Then they all copied Anton’s habit of storing a lot of cooked food or food that did not require preparation in their storage items. They were thankful that Anton also created an enchanted item that produces water since they did not have to store water, only the water-producing magic item and a few mana power banks.

“After a few minutes, the five men concentrated on the Spirit Wolf, probably because it was smaller but before it died, the two wolves managed to kill two of the attackers. Devon and Colin joined the remaining wolf in attacking the remaining three men while I supported them using my magic but the men were truly powerful. The Dire Wolf severely wounded one of the attackers but Devon and Colin were gravely wounded as well. Thank goodness that the last two men ran off after that and we hurried here,” Frederick said.

Anton remained silent and summoned a Sprit Wolf since one was killed while Anders and Lucas talked with Devon and Frederick regarding the attack. He didn’t speak because he was very angry. “How dare they attack my own!” That was what Anton was thinking, which he knew was some form of pride but he truly felt the beginning of almost unquenchable wrath.

At first, he didn’t understand why he was so angry but then he thought, what if the one who went outside was his father or his sister? Based on his speculation and the conversation that his father and Lucas were having, the attackers targeted his family members. There was a chance that the attackers waited for someone from the family to exit their suite and more than likely, their family was targeted because Anton assisted the ship by providing the wolves who were able to track them.

“To be honest, we were able to drive off the remaining two attackers because me and Colin started using the Wand of Ice Bolt that you’ve provided,” Frederick said.

Anton then knew that to truly protect his family and friends, he should start thinking about crafting powerful defensive items. He did start crafting an enchanted item that would contain the Frozen Armor spell but due to the complexity of the mana structure and his prioritizing leveling up his characters and other matters, he put it on hold. He decided that he would prioritize crafting the defensive items.

Soon they heard some knocking on their door and when they heard through the door that it was the Supreme Adinor, Colin let the wizard in together with two of his assistants.

“We heard that your family members were attacked.” The mage said.

Since his father saw that he was preoccupied, Anders was the one who talked with the Supreme Mage. His father repeated Devon, Frederick, and Colin’s report to the powerful wizard and after several minutes, Adinor and his assistants left.

“What are you planning?” His father whispered to him when the others were preoccupied with talking about the attackers.

“Those attackers actively attacked our people, Father. I decided that I will hunt them later.”

“That’s dangerous!” Anders whispered fiercely not wanting to disturb the others.

“Father, I’m very powerful. A simple physical attack will not damage me and I have very high defenses against magical attacks. Those ninja wannabes wouldn’t be able to hurt me. I want to resolve this issue as soon as possible since our family is being affected. We were attacked and even our business is affected.”

“I understand but please be very, very careful. What is a ninja wannabe?” Anton’s father asked and he smiled.

“It’s a warrior from a land steeped in respected culture. Those warriors were supposed to be the hidden hands of powerful people who functioned as their assassins and for other nefarious things. They were powerful warriors and mighty mages supposedly. I do have movies and some animated films and shows that feature them,” Anton answered and his father just nodded.

“How will you begin your hunt?”

“Later tonight, I’ll walk alone roaming the halls. Basically, just being bait and once they attack me, I’ll use my magic to capture them instead of killing them so the ship’s mages can begin the process of interrogating them so they can root out these scumbags,” Anton told his father.

Their whispering was then interrupted by Anna.

“Anton, can you cast your spell again that allows us to practice our magic fast? I want to practice my magic,” Anna said.

Anton knew that all the mages were experiencing the same thing that he had been experiencing about wanting to increase their power as soon as possible. Each one of them knew that personal power was the best way for a person to protect themselves and their families. He then added all of the mages again to his party system after removing Devon and Colin then they all started eating the lunch that Nemina prepared.

After lunch, Anders announced that there would be a meeting and Anna, who complained that she wanted to practice her magic received a fierce glare from their father.

“Since Devon and the others were targeted, no one can’t leave the suite for now. We are thinking that our family was now the target of this organization since we lent them the wolves and that the summoned creatures could detect them. If anyone wanted to go somewhere, the reason should be very important and if it is, they will need to be accompanied by at least five wolves,” Anders said to everyone and since everyone was terrified of this unknown organization who they didn’t know the purpose of, everyone would follow Anders’s command without complaint.

After that announcement, all the mages returned to practicing their magic while Anton went inside his room to continue leveling up his Paladin Character. Since they were in a delicate situation, he decided to use the screen option instead of opting to enter the world of Sanctuary virtually.

Anton exited his Diablo II system when four in the afternoon arrived. He was happy to see that his Paladin was now level seventy-nine. Just a few more then he can reset the Paladin’s skill to a build that would help him a lot in the real world. He also planned to start hunting for Paladin’s Best in Slot gear once he reached level ninety-three and above.
