The Third Gift

In order to welcome and entertain a large mass of players. God's Domain can be played while sleeping.

One of the God's Domain technology features different timetable between the game and reality, in which the time in the game is two times in the reality.

So we can conclude that the time in the game can be played up to forty-eight hours. Daytime consist of thirty hours when in reality it is fifteen, while when it's nighttime in the game, it has eighteen hours while in reality it nine hours.

Another feature of it is that also supports working class people by reversing the nigh time in reality to daytime in the game. Its purpose is to make people enjoy without affecting their jobs.

Daniel passed through a multi-colored tunnel. He saw other lights travelling in the same path as him.

Daniel expected this, but suddenly a black hole opened up in the tunnel in which he was sucked into..

"What the hell?" Daniel was shocked.

He closed his eyes, because he was a little terrified if there is any problem in the capsule. When he was a child, he watched Sword Art Online and that made an a big impact to him at that time.

After a long time he opened his eyes and looked at his surroundings. He was mesmerized by what he saw, he was in the middle of the universe.

Surrounded by stars, galaxy, nebula. He felt he was a god. Then he saw a planet, a gigantic Celestial Body. He can already guess that this planet is God's Domain itself.

"What am I doing here?, is this the special award that the people behind this game gifted me as a thanks to my contribution" Daniel remembered when he met them.

One day while he was training, he was notified that a visitor was looking for him. He then told his people that they can talk to that visitor because he was busy at the moment, but his people rejected the Idea.

"Young master, the visitors only wanted to talk to you. We persuaded him that you are in the middle of something, yet he rejects the idea. He also said that he won't leave until you talk to him. So we decided that we would use force" One of the servants felt embarrassed.

"We actually lost, nobody can touch him. Until Grandmaster Feng arrived and fought the visitor. The exchange finished after a short time. They seem to have an agreement. That's why we only notified you right now" The servant then drop his head, embarrassed by the outcome of this event.

Daniel felt peculiar about this situation, it piqued his curiosity on who is this visitor of his.

"It's ok, bring me to him" Daniel then followed the servant towards the guestroom. There he saw the visitor and was shocked again because the visitor in his mind was different to what he see with his eyes.

The visitor looks like a young man in the middle of his twenties, but feels like a man in his late thirties.

The visitor and Grandmaster Feng realized that someone is coming in their direction and they looked and saw Daniel. Grandmaster Feng then stood up and walked past by Daniel whispering something.

"He's STRONG" Grandmaster Feng then left the room.

Daniel felt incredible because this is the first time that he heard his Master to say someone is strong. He realized that this visitor of his is no joke.

He then sat on the sofa in front of him, then smiled.

"Hello, you were looking for me?" Daniel asks respectfully.

"I am sent as a representative by God's Domain. We have received a message proposing that you intended to share some of your technology to us" The man then opened his briefcase, then showed an email that was sent to them by the Stark Clan.

At first Daniel felt astonished by the situation. He then collected his thoughts and calmed down.

Seems like my idea really works. Let's see what this will turn up to.

"Yes, we sent that proposal. So do you accept our request?" Daniel then sipped a tea prepared by a servant of his.

"We declined your offer, as tempting it is. Our higher ups decided that we could just exchange for benefits within the game" The young man then answered the question like a professional.

Daniel already expected the negatory answer.

"We can only share Intermediate Artificial Intelligence, as for the advance one that is our family secret" Daniel then ordered his servant to look for some of the scientist.

After a few minutes of drinking tea, a scientist arrived at the room with a computer.

"Young master, you called for me?" The scientist in the white lab coat arrived.

"Yes, make a copy Code 00192" Daniel then ordered the technology with the secret password.

The scientist felt weird, still he followed the orders and copy the file in an encrypted flash drive. The scientist whispered the code to unlock it, then left the room with no question.

Daniel then puts the flash drive on the table and pushed it towards the visitor. The visitor straightforwardly took and put the flashed Drive in the briefcase and closed it.

"So what are the benefits you talk about in exchange for this?" Daniel also straightforwardly asked.

The visitor shook his hand and a bracelet with beads suddenly lit up, showing a hologram in front of Daniel. Daniel was mesmerized at first, but still calmed down. Because he knows that his father already has this technology.

"First tell me your Capsule order number" The visitor looked at Daniel then ask this question.

"C-00011098P1U7D9GJ2KLGE" Daniel answered without any problem.

The visitor inputted the code, then closed the hologram. He then looked at Daniel then smiled for the first time.

"The first benefit is that we open a slot to your capsule to accommodate your personal Artificial Intelligence with no problem within the game

Second, we adjusted the time, in which in Gametime the time is doubled from reality normally. For your personal account, we added an extra thirty minutes per hour in reality"

Daniel was shocked by this award, at first this can be considered as not important for a lot of players. But for Daniel this a blessing that could help him.

It means that he can play for sixty hours, when in real life, it is only twenty-four hours. His game time can already exceed the game cycle.

"And for the third and last benefit, you will only find it in the game" The visitor then stood up and extended his hand towards Daniel.

Daniel then holds up his hands also, shake the hands of the visitor.

The visitor then left the Villa.

Back to the present Daniel is still floating in space looking at the majestic planet of God's Domain.

He then looked for any clues for what to do. Like an idiot kept on twisting his head around the space. He didn't find anything at first.

Suddenly he saw something weird, in his back, he saw a large moon, but when he looked at the moon. He felt a weird feeling, like something is watching at him.

He focused his eyes, then tried to fly towards it, unexpectedly he can. He then tried to go around the moon, then suddenly his face froze up, he felt aghast at what he saw at the dark side of the moon.

A giant Dragon head, looking at him, when he said Giant maybe an understatement by the size of this creature. Usually a normal Dragon has the size of the hill or maybe a mountain. But this dragon is the size of the continent.

Daniel felt scared that he felt shivers all over his spine. Daniel is thinking of what he should do at the moment.

"Should I run?, did I really came to a forbidden area when I just first arrived at this game? Daniel then, slowly fly backwards. Then he heard a hoarse voice.

"WHERE ARE YOU GOING YOUNG MAN?"

Daniel then tried to face towards the God's Domain planet and burst into speed to escape this monstrosity.

The Giant Dragon suddenly raised its arm towards Daniel then swipe it towards him. Daniel felt a change in space.

"Space fluctuation!" Daniel tried to fight the energy but felt powerless.

"Seems like I'm the first player in God's Domain to die," Daniel thought about how funny his first death if people knew.

On his side a wormhole suddenly opened and sucked him again.

"Damn it!" Daniel was frustrated that he is happening to him.

Daniel again finds himself alive somehow. Daniel felt happy then he saw a temple in front of him. But now the Golden shiny temple, he expected.

The temple is dim, gloomy and abandoned. Like no one is here. He looked at his surroundings, he equipments.

"Legendary equipments! Divine Equipments! Everywhere he looked there was at least a dozen of them" But the equipments seems to be rusting like there is no life in it.

"Why?" Daniel then tried to grab one, but suddenly he felt electrified in his body in mind.

"Ahhhh!" Daniel let go of the equipment and was so frightened he step back.

"Damn it! There's treasure everywhere and I can't do anything about it," Daniel then tried again and again looking at the items, he didn't care no matter what type it is. He can just give it to someone he can trust.

After a long time he gave up and sat down exhaustedly.

"Freaking benefit!" He touched the ground and felt a protruding object.

He dusted it off, and was terrified of what he saw, a hand was there. The hand seems to be connected to a body under the ground. He then looked again at his surroundings and realized that there are body parts everywhere protruding everywhere.

Daniel felt creepy that he suddenly stood up and tried to run. But suddenly the hand under his feet suddenly jerks up and grab his feet.

Daniel wanted to scream, but stopped because he might look like a baby girl scared of everything he saw.

He mustered his courage and looked at the hand. The hand let go of his feet as if he felt that Daniel is already on a calm mind.

The Hand then waves a weird posture like making a spell. A flash of green suddenly hit his face. Daniel covered his face and realized that nothing seems to happen to him. He looked at the hand again, the hand forms a fist and turn to black like it lost Lifeforce.

Daniel felt scared that he might end up like that, but the hand suddenly opened his hand and a ring was floating in it. An emerald ring that looks like a treasure that anyone wanted.

Daniel studied it carefully and cautiously. Because you know it might be a trap. Daniel was always been this meticulous. When he found out that the there is nothing weird, he took the ring. The ring then flashed and turns to a ray of light and enter his head.

"Where did it go?" Daniel tried looking for it but to no avail, he didn't find any clues about it.

Daniel was happy that he found something like that.

He then tried to walk all over the place and look for another treasure, he tried to poke each part of the body is protruding from the ground, it might look disgraceful but who wouldn't want a treasure like this. Felt a few tries, he didn't succeed again.

Daniel felt tired after just a few minutes of moving. Suddenly he heard

"Everything here is dead, every object, every creature" A hooded man embroiled with golden lines suddenly showed up in the middle of the entrance to the temple.

Daniel saw the man and felt an aura of death. As if this hooded man was about to fall at any moment.

The hooded man raised his hand and point it to Daniel.

Daniel felt that this already happened in his mind.

"Damn it, It's the Giant Dragon from the moon!" Daniel then tried to run again. But this time a worm hole didn't open. Daniel only was only forcefully lifted in the air and was flying toward the Hooded man.

The hooded man then walks towards the eerie temple, while Daniel is floating behind him.

"This is the temple where beings with extraordinary power was blessed"

"The temple of Ancient time or Olympus!"
