1 I am... I am what?!
Inside a mysterious cave, large piles of gold coins and ingots were in the corners of the cave, some treasures stood there too, it would be possible for anyone to get rick for an entire life if they got hand on this much gold. But no one did so…
One of the reasons was the green western dragons that stood in the middle of the cave, as if waiting for an attack, the green dragon seemed as if it was glaring to a certain spot in his cave.
At that spot, there was a silhouette of an armored person, it was wearing a dark crimson full armor, there wasn't a single spot that showed skin, around the chest there was a rib-cage-like decorations made of old bones, and bony spikes were on the shoulder pauldrons.
It wore a dragon-like helm, which had the same horns and spikes that were around his armor, made of bones, and was wearing a dark crimson, almost black tattered cape.
On its right hand, it was holding a sword that seemed part of the set, and was glowing with an ominous red.
Suddenly, the silhouette took the horse stance and a glow surrounded him.
[Surge: Barrier]
That silhouette, that was clearly that of a man, stood there for some moments, before he reached for the dragon in less than a second and slashed at it, damaging it. The dragon started to attack him with its claws, swinging them, while the man tanked the attacks and continued to attack the dragon.
+Chaos Blight
+Chaos Blight
...
Each attack he did seemed to get slightly stronger than the previous one, and then…
[Chaorruption]
Suddenly, dark purple tentacles sprouted from the ground and whipped the dragon, dealing moderate damage, meanwhile the dragon breathed out fire from its mouth, the man tanked that attack, and used another strange move.
[Enigma: Delusion, Impasse]
The dragon was surrounded from a purple glow before it disappeared, and when it tried to attack, it seemed to miss, as if it got blind. The green dragon seemed to be much slower too.
During that moment, the armored man continued to attack it, sometimes he would use "Chaorruption" again, and when he used again "Enigma"...
[Enigma: Anguished, Delusion, Impasse]
?: Heh…
There was a massive explosion that was glowing purple, it dealt a colossal amount of damage.
[Pandemonium: Atrophy, Ataxia, Numbing]
And then the dragon died, at its place, there was a black chest piece that the dragon dropped at its death.
[Black Knight Chest Piece 1/1]
[Hardly Suiting Armor Completed]
?: Finally!
After some moments, the armored man disappeared, for appearing then inside a forest, there was a strange bipedal lizard without arms and with a plant on its back, inside the plant there was the head of a strange light-purple animal.
That thing was standing in the middle of the road, meanwhile, beside the armored man, there was a ghost of a black armored man, without helmet, showing a long beard.
After the crimson armored man showed the ghost some pieces of armors, the ghost was happy and said.
Ghost: Amazing! You actually found all the pieces of my armor! There is only one step remaining before I am set free from this curse, and I'm sure you already know what must be done. Take this orb and summon the Dark Knight…
My armor will not be easy to take down, so only use the orb when you are ready. I wish you the best of luck, Hero, simply because you're going to need it.
The armored man took the orb and put it in his inventory, he didn't do as the ghost said and disappeared from the forest.
The next instant, the armored man was over a road that was attached to a mountain, with an old mage standing there, waiting for someone. However the armored man entered in a cave that was a bit away from the old man.
The cave entrance was a bit too dark, and then he appeared inside another cave, he found himself coming out from a cave entrance and found 2 more, however, he got back from the same cave entrance he came from.
Some seconds later, he found himself in a large room made of stones, at his left, there was a hole in the wall that showed a palace that stood over a stone pillar far away from there, but the armored man ignored it and kept walking forward, until he entered another entrance and came inside another room.
This room was a bit smaller than the other of before, and in front of him there was a larger entrance, the armored man entered inside it, and found himself in another room there was a girl that looked like she came out of a circus and beside her stood a portal that was glowing with an ominous crimson red.
The armored man entered inside the portal, and in a blink, he was in another cave room. There were some demons in the room with him, but he ignored them and saw three entrances in front of him, he went to the right one… left, center, and right!
He was out from the mysterious cave, and found himself near a cliff, with a moon facing him. here was an orc wielding a katana, and with clothes that made him look like a master on the art of the blade, which he was for real.
However, the armored man's sight was on something else, it was on an archfiend some meters away from the orc, the archfiend was black and dark red colored, it gave off a noble aura and looked at the armored man with his blue eyes.
After he showed the archfiend many items, the archfiend took them all and gave the armored man something, 10 bags of dirt and some roentgenium that gave off a strange feeling.
?: Alright, with this we are at 12, 3 more and I can rest for a long time… Ugh…
There was the sound of someone stretching his body, but it was not the armored man, or the archfiend, not even the orc…
But it was someone outside from that world, over a chair and a computer in front of him.
Alex: Christ, it is always so annoying doing this, at least once I finished it will be worth it.
Yeah, almost forgotten it, the world of before wasn't real, it was a game, more precisely, Adventure Quest World, not a popular game, but it was a nice game. After Alex finished to stretch his body, he looked again at the computer.
[Champion of future]
[Level 58]
[Chaos Slayer Mystic, Rank 10]
[HP: 2289]
[MP: 100]
He was wearing the Arch DoomKnight set, whose armor would give him a 30% damage bonus against human enemies and dragons. In this game even the 1% is important, and the highest bonus an item could give was 75% against undeads, it came from the Blinding Light of Destiny, one of the most time consuming things to get.
He was farming the Roentgenium of Nulgath, an hard-to-get item. He needed 15 of them, and two more items he already had to get one of the best classes in the game, Void Highlord.
Right now there was another extremely good class at his same level, Legion Revenant, but it was out of his range for now, then there was Stone Crusher, but the requirements were a bit too hard to realize for now.
His current class, Chaos Slayer Mystic, was both a good class and a bad class, it was based on luck. Either you are lucky and get a great amount of heal over time (HoT), 10'000 crit damage, and etc…
Or you needed to face a monster that will deal 5 times more damage than normal, and since many monsters here would remove 1/10 of your hp with a single strike, if it became 5 times as much, it would be extremely dangerous, but sometimes this class was a great son of a bitch.
Surge was a skill that could either heal or give you extra defense. But when you need to heal, it gives you defense, and so… Dead, git gud, go commit unlive, how you want to call it.
Alex stood up from his chair, removed his headphones, and walked with closed tired eyes to the bathroom to clean his face, having done this many times, he already knew on his own mind where is where and what path to take to get on that part of his house, even with closed eyes.
He continued to walk towards his bathroom, and murmured while an unnoticeable increase of heat surrounded his body for a fraction of second.
Alex: God, I wish to have the Void Highlord…
?: *Sigh* I expected more from someone like you, but done...
A feminine voice entered his ears, his eyes snapped open and found himself in a black void, in front of him there was a girl with a slim figure and ample breasts, long legs, blue waist-long hair that is partially tied into a loop with a water-molecule shaped clip.
She wore an attire consisting of a vest, detached sleeves, thigh-high boots, an extremely short micro-skirt. She also wears a translucent pink hagoromo. In short, she seemed a goddess of beauty.
Alex: Wh-what? Where am I?
?: Ignore it.
A blue magic circle appeared under his feet, but suddenly the ground was shaken from a large tremor and the magic circle was broken, surprising the woman.
?: What is happening?!
Suddenly, a light brightened the area around them and an angel slowly descended down, much to Alex's shock. The angel has short blonde hair and green eyes. She wears a pink dress with a short skirt along with a few blue stripes. She also possesses two large white wings.
And right now she was glaring daggers at the blue haired woman.
Angel: Lady Aqua, this is the last time you act so immature in the afterlife. You should have informed to the man about his situation, but you just ignored it because he made a wish without even knowing what happened, thus breaking a rule.
Aqua: W-Wait! What do you mean with "Last time"?! I never acted like this! I was always a perfect model of a Goddess!
The angel created a long list from nothing and took out a pair of glasses, before starting to read.
Angel: You bullied Lady Eris due to her being more worshipped than you, you stole Lord Terra's wine, you destroyed Lady Aria's home because she… Had your same pink hagoromo… You used Lady Eris' money to buy more wine.
You descended down in your church just for some offerings, you never gave away any blessing because you are lazy, you sent 8248 people to hell because they "were annoying". And now you sent your first person to a world that he doesn't know anything about, from a situation he doesn't know anything about, just because he accidentally said his wish before you explained the situation.
Aqua: Ugh…
Alex: ...Hey, can I have an explanation now?
The angel's cold face turned soft and gentle when she turned towards Alex.
Angel: Yes, right away… First of all, you are dead.
She stopped talking, and saw Alex looking at her with a weird gaze.
Angel: When you were going towards the bathroom, a nuclear bomb exploded nearby, there was an alarm, but because you were wearing your headphones and the lights of your house were turned off, no one knew you were still there.
The reason a nuclear bomb exploded was because of an error on the target, your city should not have been the target, but it was some cities away.
Alex: ...Y-You're joking, right?
The angel shook her head, and Alex kneeled in the ground while tears were swelling up on his eyes… He will never see his parents anymore, his girlfriend, his friends, his pet would also be dead… And he couldn't even complete the objectives that he set out for his life…
The angel flew down and caressed Alex's head to calm him down, meanwhile Aqua tried to sneak away, but was stopped when a magic circle appeared under her feet, blocking her movements.
Angel: Don't even try it, me and the other Lords and Ladies had enough of your insulting behavior.
Some minutes passed and Alex calmed down, he rubbed his red eyes and stood up while the Angel was caressing his head.
Angel: Are you alright now?
Alex just nodded.
Angel: Now, this is our first, and maybe last, Alexander Carter. My name is Hana, I'm an angel that works under the Great Lord Paragon, the one who manages the other gods and goddesses.
You normally have three options, getting reincarnated and beginning a new life without any memory, staying in heaven and relaxing for your entire existence.
These were the first two, but because of a certain "Lady", she already inserted the gift you wished for and can't be removed, since for something like that, it would require quite some time.
So you have only the last option, there is a world out there that is a bit similar to the game you played, a fantasy world with magic and monsters, obviously it doesn't have the same system or monsters as Adventure Quest World, and neither you have to deal with things like Champion of Chaos or Queen of Monsters.
In that world, the Demon King's army attacked the humanity, and that world fell into crisis. Since the people there aren't strong enough to deal with the Demon King, and for order of Great Lord Paragon we can't interfere with that too much except in special cases, we can only send people from other worlds.
These people would have the chance to choose a gift to take with them, you will "Safely"...
She said the word "Safely" with venom on her tongue as she glared at Aqua.
Angel: ...Have knowledge about the language of that world, talking, listening, reading and writing. You will have a starting amount of money, but we can't do anything about your clothes except giving you a pair of sandals.
Alex looked down, he was wearing a pair of shorts and a short sleeved shirt without any shoes or socks, and then a pair of sandals appeared on his feet.
Angel: Like I said before, you would have the chance to choose a gift, but…
Alex: I understand that, but what was the gift?
Angel: In that world, there is the chance to choose a class when you go in a guild, you will see later what I mean. But you will enter in that world with a class pre-installed in you, Void Highlord.
Alex: ...What?
