10 CHAPTER 10: THE CHAOS

'Well since I'm left alone here.

I will create the avatar now.

Let's check the hidden function it said about.'

Thinking as that Taylor said,

"Avatar creation "

After which a screen appeared,

{Do you want to use Avatar Creation Coupon, yes/no?}

As he said yes, Taylor came to a different space. This space is a square room, which is completely white. In the white space, all he could see was a big mirror.

' Again a mirror'.

When he stood before the mirror, in the reflection Taylor saw himself. But he was wearing a black dress and the space behind him is a black room. And an option appears before him,

{SWITCH}

When Taylor said switch. He appeared in the dark space wearing a black dress. While the reflection showed the white space.

As he was bewildered about it, a message popped out.

{Name the Avatar}

Seeing this he started thinking, thought about everything that has happened around him, from the first dream he had, and the lessons he learned. He wants to be someone, who overcomes his fear and be without fear. So he doesn't want to be like a joker that was played by the mechanical voice or anyone else, so he named his Avatar,

JOKER.

{Are you sure to name your avatar 'Joker'. yes/no}

Yes.

{Avatar Joker has been created}

After that a weapon rack appeared before him., and a message popped up.

{Please Choose a Weapon}

The weapon rack is the same as the one he saw before when creating his 1st character. Since he has already selected the spear. He decided to use a sword. As he was about to pick the sword, he saw a white long sword-like Katana in the weapon rack.

' Well this is new'

' But the length is 120cm while my height is 163cm.'

He selected it right away. He just liked it. But when he was making up his mind, he heard a call for the sword,

' what is happening, it's asking me to grab it' ' hilt I mean'

When he took the sword from the rack, it changed its color to black and started emitting black smoke. The black smoke started to surround him. Then the smoke formed a big black face with two large horns and rushed towards him.

' What the heck. Well, you are just a game sword, what can you do to me. I will pull you out'

Holding the sword hilt, he pulled out the sword from its sheath. As soon as he removed the sheath, all the black smoke was sucked into the sword.

Then a black skull mask fell down on the floor. This mask will cover the whole face only leaving the eyes if one wore it.

With the horror sound of the devil face, it said, from the mask.

" I will devour you"

" yay yay, whatever, just go in there"

Taylor said to the devil face, looking at its shout. And put the mask into his inventory. Because it's said in the item description that it is a level 10 item, he can't see any detail about it.

' This game is so real. Damn. The devil looked so real. Even the aura'

Then he looked at the sword description.

ITEM DESCRIPTION: DARKNESS -WARBLADE [Legendary item-upgradable ]

Property:

Attack power. 50

Darkness Attack power. 50

Next level.

Unlocks at level 10.

' Wow... Fatty said legendary items are only available at a later period in all games. But I already have a legendary item, the spear I have only have an attack power of 41, but this has about 100. Well, this game is different after all. '

' I will keep it a secret, from the fatty too.'

After deciding that he open the stats option,

But before that, an information page popped out. After reading that, he understood,.

' both my avatar have the same stats option. Every time I level up, I will get 5 stats to point like everyone. But now I have 50 stats point. So my beginning will be a step ahead than others'

Understanding that Taylor opened his stats bar and allocated the points...

STRENGTH - 15

CONSTITUTION - 13

AGILITY - 17

SPIRIT - 5

Then he felt his whole body muscles tighten, he felt the energy surging through his body.

' Why does it feel like my body is filled with power'

' How is this a game after all this. Well actually I don't know how other VR games are, but yet I can be sure that this is a different game.'

Since he is a warrior, he didn't need much spirit,... And fatty said at the starting stage a warrior doesn't need magic.

He again switched to ' Taylor' Avatar and exited the creation room.

When he appeared in the same spot, Edward was already there, having a big grin on his face.

"Boss. The whole world is in chaos now because of the game. The news about the special gift is making the world go crazy. Everyone gets a gift that helps them grow both in-game and outside world. Till now it mainly increases talents or the constitution of a person. So the person that has bought the games is increasing rapidly with unknown power. I can't forget the look my grandpa gave me after seeing the development in my physique."

then he said about the things that are currently happening in the real world.

So people who got the gifts from the game spread the news to the outside world. It's like you get a superpower by entering a game. So everyone is going crazy about it. Unbelievable things are happening around the world. The most shocking is the fact that the ZEON said to the public that,

" The world we are now living in is having a rapid change. Even though the governments are keeping it a secret, the mutations of plants and animals are happening. The species with lower intelligence are affected by the mutation faster. So we humans who have higher intelligence will be slow with the mutation. As we were researching how to accelerate our growth. The existence of a higher plane than ours came to us with a proposal. And every countries president was present at that meeting. The proposal is as follows, YOUR PLANET HAS 8 YEARS BEFORE THE INVASION OF DEMON ARMY. ALREADY YOUR WORLDS SPIRITUAL POWER IS INCREASING, TO ADAPT WITH THE GROWTH WE CAN HELP YOU. BY USING THE ARTIFACT WE WILL CONNECT YOUR WORLD TO ANOTHER THAT IS INVADED BY DEMON. IF YOU CAN DEFEAT THE DEMON ARMY INVADING THEIR WORLD WITHIN 5 YEARS. THEN THEY WILL HELP YOU IN RETURN. IT WILL ALSO HELP YOU TO GAIN POWER. this is what that existence said. Fantasy World is beneficial for us. We can gain power with their help. If we protect their world they will help us. Even if we can't protect their world, still we can gain the power to protect our world. So fight for our world. "

" What? Higher existence. So the place we are standing in another world." asked Taylor shocked.

" Not only that Boss, but this world is also on a higher level than our world. If our world is level 1, this world is level 2. It's just that our world is oriented on technology while this world is on nature and spirit/mana." said Edward.

" Let's log out, boss. Our world is in great chaos," said Edward.

' yes, time is needed to understand everything. I also have to talk to my family ' thinking that Taylor said.

" Let's Log Out"
