A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 1292

The entrance to the control panel was gear-shaped, designed to match the serrated edges of the golden leaves. Only when they fit perfectly together could the leaves be inserted.

Eleanor and Robin finally noticed that each golden leaf had a unique edge, each designed to correspond with a specific entrance.

Robin ran his fingers along the control panel, giving it a thorough inspection before finally nodding at Eleanor.

Following the instructions, Eleanor took out a golden leaf, aligning it with the entrance on the control panel.

As soon as she inserted it, the gears began to rotate, and a digital voice echoed throughout the room.

“Identity confirmed. Inviter ID-Group 2, Number 7. Player’s new codename-Cross”

After the digital voice had spoken, the control panel ejected the golden leaf. On the front side of the leaf, the word ‘Cross’ was engraved alongside a small number-2-7.

This meant that whoever had invited her to Area Opaca had the ID number 2-7, and had given her a codename that signified her affiliation with them.

Eleanor was puzzled. Why would the people behind Area Opaca need to use numbers? Could it be that there was more than one person behind Area Opaca, and that they used these numbers to invite the players they wanted? But what was the reason behind this?

As Eleanor pondered this, Robin also inserted his golden leaf into the control panel. Very quickly, the digital voice echoed once more.

“Identity confirmed. Inviter ID-Group 1, Number 4. Player’s new codename-Dunce.”
