Chapter 11 - New Beginnings

As the trio of Leo, Tina, and Melina wrapped up their discussion in the bustling café. They had solidified their partnership.

With determination in their eyes, they stepped out onto the busy streets of the city. Leo's phone in hand, they began their search for the ideal location that would not only serve as their workspace but also house the highly anticipated experience store.

Meanwhile, in the virtual world of 'cave craft,' Ria's journey had taken a thrilling turn. Armed with her trusty equipment, she had ventured deeper into the Nether fortress. The eerie ambiance and the flickering glow of lava cast a surreal light on her surroundings.

Ria's heart raced as she spotted her first challenge—a menacing black skeleton guarding a narrow passageway. She deftly dodged its arrows, skillfully countering with her own, until finally, the skeleton crumbled to pieces. Ria's viewers erupted in cheers and words of encouragement as she emerged victorious.

Her chat buzzed with excitement:

 "Wow, Ria! That black skeleton didn't stand a chance!"

 "You're amazing, Ria! Keep going!"

Ria grinned and read the comments, feeling the rush of adrenaline. "Thanks, everyone! We're just getting started!"

Undeterred, she pushed forward. The chilling howls of the blaze echoed through the fortress, and she knew she was getting closer. As she entered a large chamber, she found herself face to face with a fiery blaze.

Chat exploded with reactions:

"OMG, Ria is a blaze conqueror!"

"My heart can't take this, Ria! You're a legend!"

Amidst the cheers, Ria's livestream audience felt the intensity of her every move. 

After the blaze was defeated, Ria took a moment to catch her breath, reading the comments with a grin.

"Ria, you're an inspiration! Facing these challenges head-on!"

"I can't believe you did it! You're on fire!"

Ria continued her exploration of the fortress. Her viewers were with her every step of the way, sharing in the excitement, offering tips, and forming a tight-knit community bound by their love for the game.

As Ria delved deeper, the tension mounted. Her battles with fearsome mobs, her strategic thinking, and her unwavering determination were captivating her viewers like never before. Every obstacle she overcame was met with cheers, gasps, and a flood of supportive comments.

And as Ria forged ahead in the virtual realm, back in the city, the trio's search for a suitable development center bore fruit. A majestic building, clean and well-maintained, stood before them. With four stories building, it would be enough for them.

...

The trio stood before the impressive building. Leo's gaze traveled up the façade, mentally assigning each floor a purpose.

"The top floor," Leo mused, "that's going to be my living space."

Tina and Melina exchanged knowing smiles.

Leo nodded, his mind already conjuring up images of a cozy, yet functional living area that would serve as his sanctuary.

With a glance toward the third floor, he continued, "We'll leave the third floor as an open canvas for now. Who knows what kind of innovative ideas might emerge as we settle into this space?"

Melina chimed in, "Flexibility is key. We'll design it to accommodate future growth and adapt to whatever projects come our way."

Tina nodded in agreement. "And the second floor," she added, "that's where we'll be doing most of the work—development, brainstorming, collaboration."

Leo's gaze settled on the second floor, "Absolutely."

With the building's potential laid out before them, they knew there was work to be done. The trio's next steps would involve transforming the empty spaces into vibrant, functional areas.

Leo grinned, "But it's not just about the workspace. We're also going to have an experience store."

Tina's eyes lit up. "Imagine players stepping into the world we've created, interacting with the game on a whole new level."

Melina nodded, "We'll need VR setups, gaming stations, and a design that captures the essence of the game."

Leo's phone buzzed with notifications, drawing his attention. He glanced at the messages and smiled. "Looks like the orders for furniture, PCs, and VR setups are already coming in."

"We're making progress," Tina said, her voice filled with satisfaction.

Leo's gaze shifted from his phone to the building before them. "Indeed. And this is just the beginning."
