Beta Testers

"This world, this place, those creatures you have killed, and all the things you have experienced in this world are all real." Adam continued.

"If this is not a game, then why do I always respawn every time I die in the last 3 years fighting in this world?" Alex asked.

"The reason why you can respawn for the last 3 years, is because the body you are using in this world is not your real body. What you are using right now is just a vessel for your soul. Once a vessel got destroyed a new vessel will be formed for your soul to transfer in. If creatures were created from the fruits of Yggdrasil, then your vessels are created from the leaves of Yggdrasil." Adam explained.

Nevertheless, Alexandria is still not sure whether to believe Adam or not asked another question.

"If what you are truly saying is true then, then what if you are on the same side of Satan and you are just tempting me to revolt to my God?"

"What?! How can you say that to the young, friendly, and handsome face of mine? A devil's hideous face is nowhere near my handsome face, little one." Adam exclaimed while slamming the tea he was drinking on the table.

"Well, you see," Alexandria answered shyly, feeling guilty about what she said.

"You indeed have a very handsome face, I admit it. But in the story written on Earth of Adam and Eve, Adam and Eve were said to be tempted by the devil, that is why the Demi-god you were saying punished Adam and Eve. What if you are also tempting me to go against God?"

"That story has been altered countless times due to it being passed from generation to generation. The true story of that is Eve found out the deception of the Demi-god from an intelligent dragon she had defeated, where the dragon told her our circumstances in exchange for sparing his life. Eve didn't believe it at first that is why she left me a letter first and then went with me confronting the Demi-god." Adam defended.

"Satan the Devil you were talking about is the Demi-god of the Devils, Demi-gods doesn't even dare get close to another Demi-god unless they are allies to avoid causing chaos that might destroy a world." Adam answered as he poured another tea on his and her cup, seeing as it is already empty.

Feeling that Adam has calmed down a little, Alexandria asked another question.

"Then the Demi-god of Humans what was his/her name?"

"We also don't know. He never told us what he is called, nor have we seen his true face. So Eve and I decided to call him Light because every time we met we can only see a blinding light in the shape of a human figure."

"Then if Satan is from another world, does that mean that there is no such thing as hell and all humans who died goes to heaven?" Alexandria asked another question.

"You know for someone who reached the end and does not easily believe in things, you sure ask a lot of questions." Adam exclaimed.

Feeling embarrassed from what Adam said, Alexandria looked away pretending not to hear him.

"Anyway, Heaven and Hell don't even exist in the first place." Adam continued.

"What!? Then where do the people go the moment they die?" Alexandria asked further shocked in what Adam said.

"Think of it this way: if Eve and I were the testers in the alpha test. What comes after the alpha test is the closed beta, and those people who died are the closed beta testers. During the closed beta stage creatures who lost their lives in their worlds were given a second chance and are transferred close to their world's Yggdrasil and were then tasked to protect it. But once they die again, their souls would then return to the world tree, never to be seen again."

Even though exhausted from the things she was hearing Alexandria asked another question to Adam." Then why did Light killed at least 60% of the human's total population for a year."

"Closed beta has been going for almost two thousand years since the alpha test ended. A lot of humans died in that two thousand years of closed beta testing. They died from wars, pandemics, and natural causes. Humans did not notice anything wrong with it since it is all caused by something man-made or humans found the reason of the disasters, then found ways to prevent it. But Year 2022 is the last year of closed beta to end, so Light then made a scenario saying that it is God's punishment so that humans would willingly enter their capsule and focus on the open beta test stage." Adam explained.

Adam explained further "So if Eve and I are the alpha testers, the humans who died are the closed beta testers, then that makes you and all the people who used the virtual capsules the open beta testers."

"Do you have some water?" Dumbfounded Alexandria asked for some water to calm herself down.

With a snap of his hands, Adam then summoned a cup of water in front of them and gave them to Alexandria. "Here, have some."

"Thanks." Alexandria thanked Adam for being nice to her.

"No problem, you also need some time to rest you fought hard alone for 3 years you deserve it, take your time." Adam said as he sees the tiredness in her eyes. Adam can't hide those things from her as it is important for her to know those things.

A moment of silence occurred in the room as Alexandria collected her thoughts

"If the 3 years of fighting I did is just a test, then does that mean I will face greater challenges and stronger opponents in the near future?" Alexandria asked after collecting her thoughts.

"Yes, but this time you will no longer be alone, other people might oppose you, but you will probably have comrades that will fight with you." Adam answered, shocked by what he sees in her eyes. A fire seems to be burning from Alexandria's eyes, as if it thrilled her thinking of what's going to happen in the near future.

Adam thought in his mind "So that is the reason why she managed to survive until the end, I felt doubtful at first since she looks so stupid for asking a lot of questions. She doesn't know it, but this girl is a monster, a monster with an indomitable fighting spirit and a great instinct of a smart woman."

"There's a saying a wise woman asks, while a stupid person ignores," Adam mumbled.

"What did you say?" Alexandria hearing Adam's mumbles asked.

"Nothing, let me continue the contents of the 2nd letter you definitely need to hear what Eve wanted to say to you." Adam said

"We are now running out of time, we really must hurry now." Looking above with only 3 minutes' time left, Adam warned Alexandria.

"Okay" Alexandria replied then stopped asking questions understanding their current situation.
