General Rico got a message from Alex, today he makes the time to meet him in Surabaya. Something about returning the favor, the general hate owing favor so he took a day off and came to see him. The meeting takes place in one of the office building in the center of the city. The Randall enterprise.

The General feels indebted to Alex for saving him from the terrorist base. He found him very mysterious. The stone Alex gave to him currently still on the General mind. Since consuming it, the general physical strength has returned to his younger self, even better.
The Randall enterprise, world fortune 500 company. Currently, the general came not wearing any uniform or even bring his officers. This Alex guy told him to come to this building. The general wonder what relation Alex had to this billionaire. A beautiful reception leads him to the waiting lounge.
BRRR...BRRR...BRRR
The general mobile phone got multiple vibrate, this is normally mean something urgent came up and he got news from multiple sources. But the general is on-off duty today, and there is a beautiful girl in front of him.. he will take care of it later... the general enjoys his daily flirting.
BRRRRRŔRRR...BRRRRRRRR. A phone call
"Halo general, are you in front of the tv right now? please check it out"
The general walk to the living room next to the lounge, and saw some people staring at the Tv news.
In the tv, there is a man in his 60s talking in front of a group of reporters in a press conference setting. There is international news like the CNN, and BBC news.

"Haloo. I am here to tell you a very important information. You might think that it's crazy, nevertheless I hope you will still hear it till the end"
"From my 40 years of research and studies of hundred relics. I found very disturbing news. The world as we know it will be facing the biggest catastrophes ever. At the end of this year on the 31st, there will be a global electromagnetic pulse disaster covering the whole world. All electrical equipment will be fried. There will be no way to communicate and there will be chaos."
"And this is only the first disaster, the second one will be global pandemic diseases that will affect all living being in this world. There will be no cure and no hope for those who caught the disease. The disease will affect the animal to be stronger and aggressive and the one who died from the disease will turn back life into a living monster"
"On the 31st December, I suggest just stay at home. Do not go on any vehicles especially airplanes. When your relative or people around you caught the disease, be with them and say your final farewell. Cry for them but then, this is very important. Do not bury them, Burn them"
"Be prepared, foods, weapons, and shelter. Help each other. The relics write something about a massive structure that will drop from the sky a few months after the plague. Take your refuge there, do not wait around, the monster will only get stronger. The stronger monster will drop a crystal that will help human get stronger. I will show you."
The video then shows a thin and sickly person being given a white crystal and suddenly become as healthy and strong as an Olympic athlete.
"Please share this news, for those wants more answer, we will gather in Singapore 23 December at noon. If not, on the 31st when the first sign shows up do not forget my message. May the God save us all"

General Rico takes this message seriously. First, the message was played on all channel. It means that it was highly funded. It takes very skilled hackers and lots of resources to hack the world media channels.
Second, Rico is a cop he can read a person, he can tell the professor telling the truth or at least he believes it to be the truth. And it's quite easy to just google, and check that this really is a real Harvard professor.
Third, the general recognize that white stone. That's the same stone Alex gave to him. This might be related to Alex. At the very least he should find and ask this professor.
"There you are... you are late general" Alex walk up to the general with three-person, A guy with a wooden stick on his hand, an old man and a girl.
"I see you saw that video message, this will be easier then. let me introduce you this is Mr. James Randall, I believe as a police officer you already know him. Next is the professor from Harvard as you see from the video."
"Oh yes... and this is Aria she's from the army"
"..."
"This is general Rico, the one I talked about before"
Alex thanks James Randall for preparing a production team and team of hackers. This is the third favor he asked of The Randalls, and the fourth one will be the preparation of the gathering in Singapore on the 23rd. Alex gave him the two stones he promised. James already has totaled 6 stones, this should be enough for him to become high stage human realm, this way he wont need a walking stick anymore.
Next Alex tells his reason for asking the general to come here. It's to give the professor into his care. By helping Alex, the professor face already widely known, he could be in danger. Alex asks the general to put the professor into the protective custody program and deliver him to Singapore in 3 days.
Alex is really grateful that the professor willing to read the script Alex wrote. Since launching his book his reputation already ruin anyway. The professor hopes in his last day he would give a meaningful impact to the world.
The general asks "Despite it being true or fully fictional, do you think that the viewer will believe you?"
Alex respond "Even if I manage to only convince one in every 100, I would already be satisfied, I have done my duty to the world, but then I am sure when the first sign already proven, there will be more people who have view this video to believe me and prepared for the next disaster"
All over the world that day, more than 500 million people watch this, the hackers didn't just play it on the TV but he also uploads it into the youtube. The video become viral and full of comment"

" Another moron play a crazy weird video"
" It will be pretty cool if it really happens though"
" I believe him, I am going to start preparing"
"Go get a girlfriend man, get a life"
" I have a girlfriend"
"I bet next you will say that she's really pretty"
"...."
" I have seen the video it's cool"
" I bet it's a trailer for the next Avenger's movie"
"It's more likely to be the next season of Game of Throne"

Trickster's Tale
Be careful when demanding reparations from gods. They rarely own up to their mistakes. Due to a goddess's shortsighted error, Perry finds himself transported to a distant Universe with new proportions and a different identity. Instead of cowering before the deity, he demands she opens a portal home or provides reparations for him and his bereaved family. Unfortunately, standing up for himself doesn't earn Perry respect. Instead, she curses him with cowardice, limiting his combat and magical potential. Little does the goddess know that nothing can stand in the way of Perry's sheer will. If brute strength and arcane might won't get him the justice he desires, wit and creativity will. Perry's first target? A goblin shaman. Then, the world. And so begins, the bard's ballad. Trickster's Tale (Book 1): Is That A Lute In Your Pocket will release on Kindle Unlimited on the 10th of May.Due to KU's exclusivity rules, I've had to take most of book 1 down.Book 1 Bard's Ballad takes place in the same extended Universe as my other story, The Houndsman. It's set on a distant 'disk', though. As a result, the magic system is unique in comparison and has a harder LitRPG system. While the story utilises stats, it doesn't take them seriously and occasionally makes fun of regular LitRPG mechanics.
