Super Spender

The phone connected quickly, and Finn Lewis picked it up in a hurry, shouting, “Mom, it’s me.”

“Ah, Finn, are you alright?” a worried voice came through from the other end of the line.

“I’m fine, Mom. I missed your call earlier, I was busy.” Finn quickly spoke up.

“I understand, but Finn, what’s really going on there? Tell me, if you don’t answer the phone, your dad and I are considering coming over.” A worried voice came over the phone line.

“Mom, what’s going on?” Finn was taken aback, he immediately spoke up, his mother would definitely not say these things without any reason, she must have heard something.

“Nothing major, just your matters. You didn’t answer the phone before, did you? Your dad and I were worried, so we called your class advisor. He said you’ve earned quite a bit of money? It seems you have been abroad recently? What’s really going on?” Mom hurriedly asked directly.

“Mom, don’t worry, it’s nothing. I’ve just made quite a bit of money. Mom, do you remember? I told you guys, I want to give you the best life in the world. You know, with what I learned at school. Didn’t I study computer science? I wrote a piece of software and sold it to the Fruit Company. You know, the one that sells phones?” Finn let out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, Mr. Wood hadn’t said much other than the money he’d earned.

“I know, I know, do you think I don’t know anything? Isn’t it all on TV? The company that sells that A Company’s machine. But what kind of software did you write to get such a big company interested?” Despite her lack of formal education, Mom, who only has Flame Nation’s primary school diploma, has an open mind and tries hard to keep up with the fast-changing world, so she is up to date with the latest trends. My dad is clueless, though.

“Well, it’s a software, I can’t explain it to you. Look, I’m on vacation right now, right? I’m planning to go back soon and there’s also another thing that might actually make you and Dad come to Celeston City. However, it’s hard to explain it over the phone, I’ll discuss it with you when I get home.” Finn quickly spoke up.

“Ok, I don’t understand these things you’re doing. As long as you’re safe, everything is fine. But if you’re making money, spend it wisely. You definitely would not want to move back here. In a big city like Celeston, a house could cost several million. I don’t know how much you’ve made, but we can’t help you financially. You have to struggle on your own.” Mom started to chatter away.

Finn unusually didn’t interrupt his mother’s incessant chatter. Instead, he let her continue. As the saying goes, a mother will always worry when her child travels far. After his trip to the Southern Federation, Finn had a new understanding of this kind of worry.

After some time, Mom sobered up, “Alright, enough of this, you didn’t find me annoying this time, did you? International calls are quite expensive. If you’re coming back, call me in advance, and I’ll get you some good food from town.”

“Hmm.” Finn’s voice was suddenly hoarse, and he didn’t dare to speak for a moment, but just nodded. He wished he could fly back home right away.

After hanging up, Finn felt a bit depressed. After a while, he threw his emotions to the back of his mind, reassuring his parents, “Don’t worry, your lives will definitely get better!” Finn made a silent promise.

After calming his emotions, Finn logged into Dream and Flying Bird on his computer. The group was buzzing with activity. Thinking about how long it had been since he last played the game, he missed the guys in the game. Despite Finn’s extravagant display in the game, his friends in the game knew there were many more like him. They all met in the game, played in the game, and even if they knew that one of them was extravagant, they were all very relaxed.

Anyway, with the computer as a barrier, any joke could be made. As for meeting face-to-face, it’s hard to say. There might be lots of people who were flamboyant online but introverted in person, or perhaps shy?

Thinking of the guys, Finn began to show off his fast hands, logging into

Dream quickly and entering the channel. As soon as he entered the channel, Finn was dumbfounded — there were more than a hundred people in the channel, more than he had ever seen before.

“Wow! Sawyer Mitchell? You showed up?” Suddenly someone noticed a stranger entering the channel, and as VP of the channel, Finn’s Dream account was unusually eye-catching.

With the first person noticing Finn online, the channel was momentarily quiet before becoming lively again. Many people greeted Finn, while others called him a rich man. This influx of new IDs made Finn’s head spin. All these additional people had clearly just joined the channel, probably because of the extravagant things Finn did in the game.

In the game, things like the Equipment Evaluation List can be very persuasive, so presumably many people came because of it. After chatting in the lobby for a while, Finn was pulled into a room by Mia Westfield.

“You finally showed up. I’ve been exhausted these past few days.” Mia said, looking somewhat peeved.

“Haha, yeah, I was a bit busy, so I didn’t have much time recently. I had to go abroad. Although the internet there was good, playing games from home was a tad bit difficult.” Finn chuckled, quickly speaking.

“Alright, look, our power is quite strong now.” Mia bragged.

“Really? All these people joined afterwards?” Finn curiously asked.

“Of course. You were offline so you wouldn’t know. After you annihilated that *** village, that guy went offline for a few days. He’s been laying low recently, even Blade is quite reserved, I suppose you intimidated them, huh? But I didn’t realize you were so loaded. Rich man, be my sponsor.” Mia laughed.

“Buzz off, I’m not interested in men. If Mia were to say this, I’d be on board immediately.” Finn bragged. Apparently, Mia was beautiful, although some people had seen her photos, Finn hadn’t..
