The Beginning Of A New Era

Today is the biggest day of my life so far: the day I become the best gamer the world has ever seen. Of course, I am just a normal human being, but today is also my birthday. The year is 2020, and on the 9th of September, I turn 20, marking the beginning of a new era.

This is the era that I intend to lead as a regular person, searching for a way to escape this boring world. This is why I have decided to become a gamer. I have always loved playing games; it has been one of my greatest talents since I was a young boy, along with drawing.

Enough about me, it's time to take action. On September 9, 2020, my brother Justin, his best friend Tyler, and I decided to celebrate my birthday by searching for a new VR game to play. However, this VR game had to be different and better than most games.

A virtual reality game is like a world where gamers can fully immerse themselves in millions of games with countless actions, adventures, romances, and thrilling experiences. Thanks to virtual reality technology, this is the ultimate dream of gamers worldwide.

Unfortunately, such technology does not exist yet, but that doesn't stop me from diving into stories featuring virtual reality.

As a daredevil, I constantly seek thrills to bring a spark into my boring life. When I heard about a VR game with a penalty where a player would die in real life if their in-game character died, I was intrigued and decided to seek out the game.

The name of the video game was Sword Craft, a three-player game that required our real information, such as our name, age, email, and experience. As we proceeded with the game, to our surprise, something popped up on our gaming screen instructing us to place our hands there.

Out of curiosity, we followed the instructions without realizing that we would eventually be sucked into the game. Tyler went in first, followed by my brother Justin, and finally, it was my turn. As we entered the game, two words were needed to start: "link start."

When we said the key words, we felt as though we were being sucked into another dimension, unsure of what awaited us on the other side. Before the game started, I began to see flashes of light in various colors. I caught a glimpse of a "Hundred Storey Dungeon" where the winner would receive a glowing golden egg. Suddenly, the light began to fade, and I felt as though I were losing consciousness, only able to hear the voices of my brother and Tyler.
