"Wasn't today the day the beta of MOT would be released?"

"Yes, it was! The long-awaited journey has finally ended. I can't wait to explore what is waiting for me in that world."

"It looks like we will need to meet up inside MOT once we create an alternative account."

" Yeah! We should form and raid as one. but before that, we needed to buy a capsule if we wanted to play."

"Don't worry. The capsule will be on me. My parents reserve three extra capsules for their child to play with."

"Wow, so cool. It's so good to have a parent of one of the game producers of a large company."

"I envy you. Huhuhu!"

"That is nothing!"

MOT or also known as Mirror of Time. A game released by the SerVi Corps that takes over a million gamers within just half of its release.

A crazy online game that shakes the foundation of gaming production. This game varies to lead a life inside and live like someone who wasn't washed by time.

My classmates have been going on and on like someone who is crazy about it that even I who doesn't have an interest in games know some information about such a game.

Mirror of Time varies from one species to another. They offer various species, locations, and artefacts that help enhance the overall quality of the game. They offer a tremendous amount of new experiences about a world different from Earth. That is MOT.

The most popular aspect of the game was its realism. The promotional video released by SerVi Corps indicates that is realistic within the game that a person can feel, touch, and see. They say that a person could hundredly feel the reality of their worlds and senses.

The emotions they wear and even death could be felt too real. Some called it "the death game of all time."

But even if SerVi Corps indicates its danger as they weren't a hundred per cent of the safety of people on this beta, they were about to release. People still go crazy about it.

I, on the other hand, wasn't much of an addicted gamer, but if we were talking about storybooks like novels and comics, then that would be something I can't deny. As I was an Otaku who was obsessed with books.

I was particularly obsessed with a lewd one. Well, if you were wondering what kind of lewdness I was indicating. Then it is the lewdness of a man to another man.

Yes, I was long aware of who I was. At this time, they were gays and so was already opened. I, on the other hand, hid it because my parent was strict when it came to their child's love. But even so, they truly love me. It was just me who was afraid that I would be denied by my parents. So, I hide it!

"Son, you should try to mingle with other people as long as you can. You were about to graduate, and you haven't changed a bit. Are you just going to continue to be like that?"

My father said. His name was Dylan Von Lancaster, a chairman of VL Corporation. He is a stern man, but beneath his indifference, he loves his family more than his work.

"Your dad is right, honey. We wanted more than anything but for your happiness. Even so, we can't just stay still knowing our child would be alone for the rest of its life. So we buy you a present."

My mother, Wisha Lancaster was of beauty. She resembles a maiden of kindness and purity. She is the sole strength of our house.

And I was Lane Ashy Lancaster, the only child of this pretty rich household. We were currently eating dinner as I just got home from school. I know my parent love me so much that most of their time was spent taking care of my health rather than working. But I just couldn't get the strength to mingle with others. I don't know why.

"Hmmm! Would I care to see what present Mom and Dad have prepared for me?"

I take a bite of an apple, currently eating as I watch their eyes quickly looking at one another and soon pointing back at me.

"That would be a surprise. For sure you will love it, honey."

"Right, right."

They were such good parent that a child couldn't ask for anything more. I just gave them a nod as we continued to eat and converse with one another.

Now, we were in front of my room. I don't know why they needed to blindfold my eyes just to surprise me like this. But I couldn't hate it. This is just how they show their love to their child.

"Son, are you ready?" Dad called as I nodded once again. Within a second, the creaking sound of the door was heard, and they soon led me inside.

"Now, this is for you."

The happy shout of my mother, with the blindfold in my eyes being removed. Inflicted some excitement inside me.

"Now open your eyes and see what it was. Come on, honey. Come on!"

I don't know if I would be angry with my mother for always treating me like a child even though I was already pretty much old. Or laughed at the playful act she was showing.

Hmm!

Opening my eyes, I saw a pair of women and a man in front of me. I tilted my head with confusion and asked, "Where is the present?" Then slowly and surely. They divert from one another, and a game capsule decorated in silver lines is shown.

"Surprise!"

Both said. I remain silent for a second. Yes, I wasn't happy with this time present. Because I am an otaku who only loves books. An otaku who doesn't play games. So how would I use it?

Must be because of my silence, my parent become worried as they approach me.
