I ignore the message and the first thing i do is to rush towards a lake, a pond, or somewhere to see my reflection. I am an elf yay. But quite creepily, I have my real physique, the major difference being only the pointy ear. Well thank god atleast I still have my good looks. I look around and see a town around me. No wonder people say the can't differentiate between the game and real life, its because you really can't. This looks so real that it is actually a bit scary. I saw this one movie where a guy things he has got back home from a dangerous mission, while he was actually hooked to a virtual reality machine in which he lived his life, and got eventually killed. No that guy was not the MC, geez no MC is gonna get captured so easily. If he was the real MC, he would have had the villain trapped in the VR showing him that he was the one who had the MC hooked to the VR machine. My point is the thought is a bit scary.
" Why is that dude standing there like a statue. And whats with his appearance, he looks totally weird "
Well smart guy, this is me in my thinking zone. Some people call it as zoned out, spaced out, some even say it is my switch of mode ( computer joke, since i hang around computers a lot ). Like to most douche bags I am not even gonna give you a reply. Suffer as I insult you in my mind.
Then a middle aged man comes near me. He is slightly taller than me with those bumps and boulders all over his body ( muscles ).
" You look like a elf, but really short. Mmm .. AH! you are probably a elf hobbit hybrid or something. Weird I have never heard of no hybrids before. "
Like the previous guy, this guy too gets a bucket load of my mental insults. The saddest part is he does not even realize i am insulting him. Ahh..... the sweet satisfaction of insulting someone and not getting punched. On a side note it is the constant punching that made me switch to mental insults.
" No sir, I am an authentic elf. If you would excuse me, i just started the game and would like to do a little bit of exploring "
You dont have to be surprised you know. I know how to talk to others quite well if I do say so myself. Its just that i prefer not to talk to people much. Mainly because of my school trauma, which i don't want to get into right now. Its a pretty long flashback.
Shit! i completely forgot about my awesome rare class. Well the difference in the new VR game is that all the skill and info of the game are stored in your head. You just think of it and bam! you got the info. Also there is no annoying skill list as in the past. To make it closer to reality, the special moves and skills actually comes from training and muscle memory. If you get a skill, the game automatically loads it into your muscle memory , or something like that ... i think.
If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
I think about the name of my class and immediately the name ' Word Smith ' comes to my mind. As expected of a super rare class, never heard of it before. I think of my own powers and the only thing that comes to my mind is a single foreign looking character. The character means pause/stop. As long as the skill is powerful, the number of skills is not gonna make a difference. So i tested my skill out to the extreme. Well I initially thought it was a stunning move or something, but it is even better than i expected. It stops the time for my opponent. Totally overpowered skill, or so i thought till i found out that I have to exhaust all my mana to keep something stuck in time for 3 seconds. hell, it doesn't even give me the time to run away. Since the cost of the move increases with my own power, I don't think i am gonna be able to use it much more than 3 seconds even in the future The Maybe physical strength was the real forte of this class .... or not . Its like 55% agility and 25% defense and the rest other physical capabilities. Meaning I am super weak, but agile like a monkey. On the bright side I can probably run away after using pause.
Rare class : check
Unique class: check (probably)
Useless in combat : check
I am not stupid. The AI lady really did screw me. I mean metaphorically, not the adult version. F you ' how to land girls magazine ' . Its scary to even imagine what would have happened if it weren't for my ingenious mixture of manly styles. I guess I saved my day again. Atleast the class is rare, and the main thing about eternia is that you cannot change your class once you select it < where was my choice > . There was a lot of dispute about this, but the GeneX company didn't cave in since they wanted to make it closer to real life as possible, and cherish your character as you cherish yourself.
I spend the next several hours walking around and getting to the place. The city is called Ronan. Its your typical mixed race city, with compounded walls, a forest and other leveling areas for beginers just outside the city. Got too bored to continue.
Not really in a mood to test my 'rare' class, I log out. I thought about playing the game during my sleep, but the class ruined it for me. So its the old school sleep for me today.
