1 A Virtual Life In Another World - Part 01

It was a warm and pleasant afternoon typical of the summer that was approaching at Yatsu State School, a small town with little more than 10,000 inhabitants, a peaceful and even beautiful place to see with its cherry blossoms that bloom every year warning of the arrival of the festival more it was a long way after all it was early summer and soon the school holidays would arrive, it was only a few hours before that thought a third year boy named Hytori Senki, a young man of average height, spiky black hair and ordinary school uniform clothes was sitting by the big window looking out as if the hours didn't pass, he could only stand there waiting for the time to pass while the others in the room had fun in the closing moments of the lesson,with his body on the table he showed clear loneliness and yearnings but nobody cared after all everyone was already used to his way, you could ask anyone about him that nobody would know even if he was studying there who would say know him, he was even a "nobody" in that place.

Something catches his eye, he looks at the teacher.

Teacher: -Good vacation to all.

It was the sounding signal that made him go back to that world in which he was trying to escape, so everyone took their things smiling and complemented their colleagues wishing a good vacation were leaving by the entrance door of the room, the teacher in turn kept his things in a brown folder, Hytori left with his head down carrying his things, he was not a bad student but he was also not one of the best, he managed to pass the average.

When going out the door without looking around, someone passing by looks at him as if he wants to say something more when he sees him that way, he might want to complain that he was hindered by the exit or something but he doesn't even notice and I continue on his way to the main gate of the school, he stops there, looks around and raises his head screaming into it ...

Hytori: - "finally Holidays!"

So he ran to his house, the place where he could be who he really was a nerd, a gamer, an otaku and lazy, his personality only showed when he was playing his video games and role playing games, you could say he was addicted but far from being a good player but during classes his mother forbade him to play late because he worried about his studies and the fact that he had never seen him bring a friend home or even talk to friends during family meals , so he was looking forward to summer vacation, where he could do what he likes.

Hytori: -oh beauty, now I'm free from that school. - taking off your shoes at the entrance. -I'll be able to play until I can't, hehe, I'll get gold today in the FPS or go through the boss in the dungeon.

His mother heard him enter the house and runs to talk to him before he goes up.

Mother: -Hytori! Before going up, come here.

Hytori: -the mother, can't it be after?

Mother: -Hytori Senki, now.

Hytori makes an ugly face but goes to his mother.

Hytori: -What is it now ...

Mother: -see how you talk to me.

Hytori: -Sorry.

His mother hands him something.

Hytori: -What is that?

Mother: -I need you to go to the center to buy these things for me.

Hytori: -what? Why so far?

Mother: -there are no such things.

Hytori: -Can't you ask Tatsune to go?

Tatsune was Hytori's younger sister, although twins they were quite different.

Mother: -Tatsune is busy with her vacation group. - crossing her arms. -by the way i asked her to put it too.

Hytori: -Is what? I am not going to miss my holidays in school groups, even more than those involved with her.

Mother: -You will not spend the holidays locking in your room like every year Hytori.

Hytori: -but ...

Mother: -without but, you will buy the material for the holiday classes. - taking something out of your pocket. -there's the money here.

Hytori against his will goes to the center as his mother ordered, his devastated and serious face caused strangeness in the people who passed by him.

When he arrived at the store, he took the things that were on his mother's note and went to the checkout line.

Hytori: "I will spend an eternity here"

The line was long even more, he exaggerated as usual, so he saw something that caught his attention on the TV that showed advertisements.

New Launch of Tec-Soft-Media (TSM)

The VR Glasses revolution, where the player is taken into the game, you will experience all sensations in person without the need of a stick or in augmented reality 3D cameras.

-How is this possible?

TSM's advanced technology uses VR glasses to launch the minds of those using virtual reality.

-It's safe?

Yes it is totally painless and does not harm your health, as only your memory will be taken to the virtual world, while you are standing at home, or lying in your bed, and with the push of a button your memories return to the body thus bringing you into the real world again and your entire game journey is saved like normal games.

-wow how amazing.

Yes, only this week VR glasses will have a launch promotion, buy the glasses and receive the MMO: Isekai game in RPG as a free gift to start playing.

Price: 2,000 Yen

Sir: -these companies have nothing more to invent.

Madam: -this is, every day a different game, our children are getting lost in this world.

Hytori, who had heard all that without moving, drops the things he was carrying in his hands and runs out of the store.

Hytori: "I have to buy this game"

Hytori ran through the streets thoughtfully without looking to the sides, when crossing the street without looking at a truck almost collides with him ...

Trucker: -You're crazy!

Hytori was so euphoric that he didn't even care about anything, it seemed that everything was slow around him, he then arrives at an electronics store, the queue was huge, many would be there to buy that news.

Young 01: -wow, my brother who lives in Tokyo said it is amazing.

Young 02: - I can't believe they launched it two days ago and now that they got here.

Young 01: -Yeah, small town is awesome ...

Hytori watched the two of them talking while their panting body tried to breathe. After a while his turn came.

Attendant: -How lucky my boy, this is the last one.

The others who waited behind him are sorry but he doesn't even notice what the clerk said and runs home, the money his mother had given him to buy things was enough to buy the glasses.

When he got home he went up to his room without saying anything, his mother realizes that he came and looks at her, but she already expected that reaction because she thought to herself that he would be angry to know that his vacation would be at school.

Mother: -ay ...

In his room Hytori takes the VR glasses out of the box and without reading the instructions he activates the glasses and puts them on his face, his room was dark and tidy even, he lies on his bed, breathing deeply.

Hytori: - today will be the beginning of my virtual life in another world ...

He activates the game and an intense light is emitted in his body and binary data appear in his mind, several 010100001011101001 and for an instant he feels how his body rises and everything goes dark, when his vision comes back he is in front of a different world and a voice says.

Welcome player to MMO: Isekai in RPG.
