CH 1

The biggest DMMORPG of the century, Yggdrasil, is finally coming to a close 12 years after it launched.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Stay and enjoy the last hours with me, or something" muttered Momonga after Herohero left. "I understand they have lives, but this was our home" angrily muttered Momonga as he started to walk to the throne room. [All it takes for something to change is an errant thought]. 'Most people have abandoned the game.' thought Momonga. 'That should mean all prices are low.' Momonga strolled thought the online shop and saw an inventory expansion. "You only live once." Momonga bought it and then headed to the treasury. Might as well take the whole thing he thought as he emptied it out. 'I will leave the world class items.' Momonga thought as he made it the mausoleum to get his guildmates gear. He finally made it to the throne room as the clock hit 23:50. He sat on the Throne of Kings as the final moments ticked by. "Touch Me, Ulbert, Tabula, Ancient One, Nishirekai..." Momonga named all 40 of his guild mates. "It was fun, no, It was a blast."

23:58, 23:59, 0:00, 0:01, 0:02

'What?' thought Momonga as he opened his eyes.

'Is this a sneak peak at Yggdrasil 2.' Momonga thought. He tried to call the GM but that failed so he tapped to air to try and pull up his console when suddenly a screen flashed in front of him. 'What is this?' Momonga thought. It looked like a status screen from one of those ancient RPGs. It said his class was sorcerer with all his classes in the subclass category. 'No, there are more.' Momonga thought.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Something is strange' thought Momonga. 'I can smell and feel the texture of the concrete beneath my feet.' 'Concrete!' Momonga quickly looked around himself and found he was in a run-down building. He looked outside and saw a run-down city as well. He saw many people panicking and yelling at what looked like shop keepers to get the GM. "It seems I am not in Yggdrasil anymore!" Panicked Momonga before a green light washed over him.

"It seems my undead passive still works."

Suddenly a bunch of people's statuses popped up when he was looking at the people in the streets. They showed people with classes you expect form a RPG and the classic classes. They also had races even though most looked human. He could also see the shopkeepers with classes called People of the Land.

"I need to blend in" Momonga muttered as he took out the mask of envy form his inventory along with a pair of gauntlets. He then closed his robe and cast the spells False Data: Status to change his race to half-alv and his subclass to just chef. He then made his way out of the building for information.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Momonga was strolling down the street checking his inventory through the pop up screen. He saw the hundreds of million Yggdrasil coins were renamed just gold coins with all his gear changing from the known ranking of Yggdrasil to what he assumes this world classifies gear as. He noted that his world glass item he has equipped is still world class but all his divine glass items are now phantasm class. He used some of his gold to buy the food and potions he saw shop owners selling.

"How much for all of this?" asked Momonga.

"U-uh, 200 gold". Stuttered the shop keeper when he saw how tall Momonga was.

Momonga gave him the gold and them was on his merry way.

'I should find some information about this strange land. 'It kinda reminds me of what the history books said Japan looked like 200 year ago.' thought Momonga.

Momonga observed how people were still panicking but he could already see some down in the dirt as if they have lost all hope.

'I need to wait a few days until people calm down.' thought Momonga as he saw how unlikely anyone was to answer his question.

"I should still have the extra comsetic items from when we decorated how personal rooms" muttered Momonga. 'And Peroroncino said I shouldn't horde everything' thought Momonga in amusement.

Momonga suddenly tripped over a rock and caught himself on a building and as he was straighten up a screen popped up in front of Momonga.

'Whats this' muttered Momonga.

As he looked at the screen he realized it was about the details of the building with the owner as none. Momonga continued to explored the screen and suddenly an option to but the building popped up.

'This is definitely not Yggdrasil, you couldn't buy any building, only rent out a room at an inn.'

Momonga continued to walk down the street until he arrived at the exit from the city. He saw a sign on the wall saying "WELCOME TO AKIHABARA".

'So that's the name of the city. I will need to test out my spells to see how they transferred over' thought Momonga as he traveled outside.
