A new VRMMORPG which instantly turned into a global sensation. A youth who studied to be a teacher, yet was a mage during his spare time with a single goal:
โI will explore everything this new world offers!โ
Sebastian Crowley was a man in his twenties who studied to one day be a history teacher. That was his passion, like his secondary hobby: play games, MMORPGs.
He and his friends hopped on the new VRMMORPG that launched after years of development, a game the world had never seen!
โYou can be the healer for us. Jimmy is the tank, and I am the DPS. Just casual play, nothing more. We know you are busy.โ
They planned on playing together, but something unexpected happened.
The classes within the game improved a person in the real world, and the opposite was true as well. Athletic people had some benefits while playing the melee classes, and if one knew how to use a bow, then they would become a decent Archer.
But the mages? A realm for the scholars, those who had some talent for it, and Sebastian was not one of themโฆ
He was so untalented that he thought his game was bugged. โWhy canโt I learn a single spell? Not a single ONE!โ
The game developers clearly stated that 'It is hard to learn spells, but it is doable for everyone, and the most basic spell can take at maximum six hours.'
That was what they said, yet Sebastian was unable to learn anything at all!
Sebastian spent the first three days of the gameโs launch trying to learn the most basic spell, and while everyone else succeeded, he did not.
โLook, Sebastian. I know we are friends. Jimmy feels the same, but we found another healer andโฆโ
The phone call ended with Sebastian crying out in anger, frustrated.
He dropped everything related to combat and focus on professions, and in his first expedition, an unexpected prize.
A legendary class, one that did not rely on talent or studying. The Sage only needs to see the spell once, and then kill the enemy to learn it.
โI can even learn spells only the monsters have? This is freaking awesome!โ
