prologue

elder tale,

the game that had many players throughout the world,

it was the game that was releasing it's latest expansion, the Noosphere

but it was not the only game to be updated and targetted by otherworldly entities

--------------------------------------------------------------

"so, Dr.Fujikawa, what is so special about this recent update??" asked an anchor on the news channel to which the person replied

"well as you all know it has been a year since we developed the very first VR MMORPG in the entire world, although admittedly we have only 2 million players worldwide because of how expensive the technology is but we are still working on that, this game which was developed based on the series naruto usually only has three classes, shinobi, samurai and the rarest of them all, jinchuriki which has only 9 people throughout the world so that the game would stay true to the series,it also gives you the abilities of the Biju and makes one strong enough to be on equal terms with two raid bosses, but in return, this class is so hard to find that, even after an entire year has gone by, only three of these classes were found, the one tails, the four tails, and the nine tails, but this update we are about to release tonight, will allow for the option of a third subclass aside from the main class and subclass, this subclass will allow a player to acquire the otsusuki subclass that will also be added to the game with the subclass, this will allow the players access to the rinnegan which was not present in the game until now, it will also open the doors for us to develop the game even more" he said to which every one who was watching the announcement felt excited,

the game naruto had three main classes, the subclasses allowed the player to take any of the bloodline or clans abilities, but that was all, after that, it depended completely on the player how strong his avatar becomes, there was no such thing as a level cap because the developers wanted this world to feel as real as possible, it was rumoured that the highest level a player had achieved was 300, the said player was reported to already be on par with the 9 tails jinchuriki, but of course levelling was not easy, the higher the level a player has, the harder the quests he needs to take,

that is why they were waiting eagerly as they saw the loading screen on their latest update as they strapped into a 3d movement sphere and put on their simulation suit and VR headset,

the moment the game began was also the exact moment that elder tail had begun as well

on that night 40,000 players across japan and millions world wide went missing
