Chapter 958 - The Real Hidden Forces

Today, the entire Baymard was wide awake, with people jumping excitedly as they prepared for the launch event.

At 2 P.M, the ribbons would get cut, and the Arcade Centre would be open for business.

"Oh my God!

Why is it that during events like this, it's always brother Landon who keeps us back?"

Little Momo and Linda were almost going insane with Landon's sluggishness.

Didn't he know how important today was?

Why was he trying to sabotage these sorts of events?

In their minds, if not for them, their brother Landon would've turned up late for many events like today's.

Yes! It was all because of their actions that Landon seemed to have attended those events on time.

But they failed to understand with or without them, Landon would still show up on time.

Little Momo and Linda's anxiety was off the roof as they rushed towards Landon's office to drag him out.

Even though today should've been a school day because it was a Baymardian holiday honouring the ancestors that provide the harvest, classes were cancelled.

To these people, this holiday was as important as Christmas or thanksgiving.

It was a 2-day holiday event starting from today.

So many schools cancelled classes on this holiday.

That said, Little Momo, Linda and several other children around Baymard couldn't wait to go to the Arcade Centre.

Luckily, they decided to launch it today when they were all free.

Of course, many a.d.u.l.ts still had to work if the holiday fell in line with their shifts.

.

The ribbons got cut at 2 P.M today, and now, it was already 10 A.M.

Little Momo and Linda had agreed for their friends to meet them here, so they could all go together, rather than getting there and searching for each other amongst the sea of people.

And amongst the people they invited were the royal children of other empires who were very close to them.

There was Hermon (now 12 years old), Bridget (12), Tobias (10) and Rebecca (9).

These 4, were Penelope's cousins, who were birthed by Duchess Mina (Carmelo's only sister).

They were the first royal children to visit Baymard year's back play Go-Kart racing with little Momo and the rest.

Then, there was Krea (now aged 8), who was Micheal's daughter.

She was rescued alongside the dying Micheal from Nopline's grasps in Terique some time back.

Of course, even though many were in different classes from little Momo and Linda, they still met during lunchtime and outside school.

So they were still very close.

Apart from the royals, others from their classes came too... like Natsu, one of the school grass and Aminie, who was also one of the most beautiful girls in the school.

.

It was already 10:45 A.M, and all their friends were here, so why wasn't elder Brother Landon ready?

Their lips twitched as they heard everyone praise and assume that Landon was ready.

But they still maintained their expressions while secretly rolling their eyes heavenwards.

As expected, they were the ones who kept things together.

Nonetheless, they couldn't allow others to notice Landon's sluggishness, so they kept everyone in their rooms and sneaked out to secretly get Landon ready.

"Momo, is it done?"

"Piece of cake.

I showed them my latest action figure collection and also played the video of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers season's Finale.

Almost all of them haven't watched it yet, ao the boys are all hooked and distracted in my room."

"Hmmm.

The girls are also distracted in my room as well.

But they left, telling them that I was going to get good.

Momo! We don't have much time.

We have to drag Brother Lanson out of his office now!"

"Agreed!"

With that, the duo hastily made their way towards Landon's office.

What a joke!

If they didn't get him ready, wouldn't he be late?

Who knows... He might've even forgotten about the event.

Honestly, without them, they couldn't imagine how their brother Landon would survive.

Sigh... who asked them to be good people?

.

~Din, Din, Din, Din~~~

The duo ran across the hallways, stomping their feet heavily, as they dashed towards Landon's office while greeting all those they met along the way.

Of course, they also got the kitchen to send a few snacks over to their rooms for their friends.

Hopefully, they'll be back before the food arrives.

Landon, who was busy working on some doc.u.ments, couldn't help smiling wryly at the duo.

"Why are you guys here?"

The duo didn't care about his helpless expressions and marched towards him forcefully.

"Brother Landon, you know that you aren't young anymore.

So don't you think that it's time you started taking things more seriously?"

"Yes. We can't keep babysitting you all the time in matters of this nature.

So can't learn and improve yourself more?"

"That's right.

Today, one of the most extraordinary things to ever hit Baymard would get launched.

So why aren't you ready?"

"Yes!

The papers in your hands are not as important as this.

So when are you going to grow up and act responsibly?"

"_"

.

Landon, who was holding some important government doc.u.ments, didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

These doc.u.ments were all about the upcoming United Nations (U.N) meeting.

But apparently, it wasn't as important as games.

Somehow, the duo had turned him into an irresponsible fellow.

Blame him for introducing it to the world and hyping it through commercials.

He had a feeling that many parents were going through this right now.

Looking at the duo who stood before him, educating him as if they were his parents, Landon raised his hands in defeat.

Government doc.u.ments?

What was that?

In the minds of these children, it wasn't as important as today's event.

Without wasting any more time, they seized his doc.u.ments and locked them in his drawers before dragging him away.

The secretaries outside only chuckled and shook their heads at the scene they had already witnessed countless times.

No matter how the years passed, these children always dragged Landon away in moments like this.

From jumping on his bed as earlier as 7 A.M to rushing him through his meals... Over the years, these kids had used several strategies on Landon.

So many had already witnessed such similar scenes in one way or another.

Landon, on the other hand, was truly helpless as he got pulled away like a child.

Sigh... Forget it.

Today, these kids were in charge.
