2 Chapter 2: God's Elysium

Xie TianYe relived his memory once again later his frowned deeply which is an old habit during his past life. He muttered "Thankfully, this time around, the "God's Elysium" was not released yet". In the past, he played God's Elysium just a version late, yet the progress between Xie TianYe and those top players is like heaven and earth. He missed a lot of first-world achievements and those extra rewards in stats, don't underestimate those extra little stats because in the future or the end-game content, having those few extra points are considered to be the differences between experts and normal players.

Just as he was about to expla..**cough thinks more about it. His thought immediately got interrupted by Xiao'er's charming voice "why were you frowning?, You have just gotten better from the sickness, so you didn't need to think so deeply." said Xiao'er said in a concerning tone. Xie TianYe sighed once again thinking 'It indeed feels better to have someone become concerned over you' while saying "No, I feel better than ever, don't worry about me Xiao'er.". Xiao'er nodded and didn't say anything after a while seeing him still in deep thought she said: "I left the food here, it has enough portion for today, so you mustn't go anywhere else besides resting in the room.". Seeing that he was still deep in thought, she harrumphed and slammed the door angrily. Xie TianYe was startled and could only laugh bitterly before start sorting his thought once again.

If his past memory didn't play a trick on him, the official release of God's Elysium is next week. Whatmore, the developers have already started selling the VR console starting tomorrow. Xie TianYe laughed "Such a coincidence, the lady luck sure spreading her legs for me after the rebirth".

Xie TianYe slowly got up and use his smartphone to order the VR console. Before proceeding to go outside doing a set of exercises being ready for God's Elysium launch day. You might be wondering 'What does an exercise has to do with the game?'. In God's Elysium, while the brain is definitely the most important. God's Elysium's realism is over 110 percent, which is to be unpreceded it can be also considered as a technological breakthrough in the past 50 years in the 205x. There are tons of investments from all over the world that make it possible to just play games and earn money from it much better than spending time looking for a job.

Xie TianYe muttered "My final goal is still the same in the past or this life, to become a god in God's Elysium. But now there are additional questions and it seems like God's realm is not even the highest realm in the game". Xie TianYe clinched his fists beaming with excitement to explore the vast world in God's Elysium.

Just like this, three days have passed quietly. Xiao'er no longer visits him since Xie TianYe told her that he has gotten better and is able to feed his own meal now. One morning, his best friend in his past life suddenly banged the door to see him. His face is just perfect for a male, his exquisite jaw with the right angle, his handsome mouth, and his sword-shaped eyebrows. Xia YingBao or Ah Bao which is what Xie TianYe usually called him. From the description, you can tell that he is a complete male god, just by standing next to him you will get all the glares from the female even though Xie TianYe is also a male, it doesn't make sense. In the past, he was also jealous of this guy. But after those experiences, he saw it as nothing more than a bag of skin or the so-called 'appearance'. Seeing that his best friend was staring at him like this Ah Bao felt embarrassed and slapped him on the shoulder saying "How was your health now?"

Xie TianYe rubbed his shoulder and said "My health was fine, but now my shoulder hurting like hell". Ah Bao showed an apologetic expression before asking in an odd tone "Were you preparing for the new game?". Xie TianYe replied, "Yeah, just like everyone else". Ah Bao was slightly startled and said "I thought you didn't like it before? saying that it is a waste of time". Xie TianYe thought 'That was true. In the past, I focus on earning money through some small part-time jobs.' After a while replied, "That was the past, now it's time to seriously taking this big step". Ah Bao was a bit confused but no longer interested.

After the caught up about good old time. Ah Bao said meaningfully "You better take good care of yourself this time, don't let anyone worried about you". Xie TianYe laughed and said, "Don't worry, you should just worry about yourself instead". After one last glare at Xie TianYe, Ah Bao left the apartment.

In Xie TianYe's previous life, this best friend of his was considered to be one of the most talented players in God's Elysium. However; he was suddenly disappeared after 5 years since the game started and he was also at the perk of his popularity, it led to a lot of investigations but return with no result. Xie TianYe thought "Hmm, I probably should find out about this one too".

Of course, there is a reason why Xie TianYe wants to save or rather use Ah Bao. Just like everyone else Xie TianYe cherishes talent. Furthermore, he was involved in so many opportunities in the game which led him to be hailed as "The Supreme King" in God's Elysium in just 5 years of development.
