I'm a big fan of RPGs. They seem to have an interesting vibe to get my mind off my pathetic life.

However, nowadays RPG's are so boring... They're becoming so... predictable... I wish I can get more of it...

And so I searched and searched... Up to the point I almost gave up.

I even told myself that I will stop playing video games when I'm 25.

Hope is almost lost... Until I found EleMenTaLenT.

Just before I turned 25, the age which I vowed never to touch games again, the virtual reality game EleMenTaLenT was released. It was described as the Ultimate MMORPG, the best in the world ever!

Everyone was buying it because how good the graphics were in the trailer ads on YouTube and other major game sites.

Moresoever, there was a catchphrase in it called "absolute freedom", which means they allow people to do everything at their own pace and do whatever they want.

When I finished watching it, I said to myself "Wow! This should be good! "

Interesting... I love magic in fantasy stories! Especially Elemental Magic or magic that control basic elements.

One thing that caught my attention that bothered me though... This world called Heaven On Earth...

I don't like the abbreviation... HOE... Sounds nasty... Am I the only one who realised this?

Anyways, I still bought the game, which came with a headset and the CPU.

The head set looked like a motorcyclist's helmet with a built-in VR goggles, stereo sound system with a mic.

It also had a temperature and moisture conditioning devices and also a built-in radio system (which is described to detect and nullify any sound waves coming from and to the wearer and their environment within 2 meters).

The CPU which was connected with Internet cable, has a wireless receiver to connect it with the headset for online and built in with the best graphics card.

After making sure everything was set up and running, I sat down on my chair, put on the helmet and pressed the start button.

To my surprise, nothing happened...

Suddently, from the ground burst forth a large magic circle and the world seemed to shake.

And then the portal opened with a flash of light which made me close my eyes!

I felt the world around me spinning and rushing at light speed, where random scenery flashed in my head as if spirited away or having a flashback. It all happened so quickly that I couldn't recall most of it.

When the light dissipated, there was a scenery of Utopia... I'm on a field near the forest. Surrounded by a luscious green, I looked around in awe. Every detail seemed so real.

Then suddenly, I see fairies with bodies of teenagers with insect wings approach me. They are all good looking people that are only as tall as a the middle finger to end of the palm.

A beautiful busty blond fairy with glittering butterfly wings appeared in front of me.

Her clothes covered only her bottom two thirds of the twin globes of big bosoms.

Half of her smooth thighs are bare way up to just beneath her ever so slightly transparent pink dress made of... flower petals?

That's way too less fabric.

A leaf can cover more skin than this thin piece of fabric draped over her body.

For most people this should be what you would call HOE.

Her wings on her back means that she is possibly bare backed...

And they blame the society for pedophiles when they put this in front of your nose...

Then a sudden thought came to me...

I think I've seen this fairy before... She looks just like one of those British child celebrities in the popular movie with wizards and witches.

The fairy seemed to be indifferent and greeted my with a charming smile and enthusiastic voice like a bird, a sexy one that is...

"Hello, young adventurer!"

3 seconds of awkward silence... Another thought came to me...

A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.

Ermmm... But you don't look a day over 12... How long does fairies live?

And ermmmm.... I'm over twenty...

That's like calling my mother young lady. I may get owned by my father for trying to hit on her...

The fairy remained silent until I was mentally ready and continued her greetings.

"We were waiting for you to aid us! I'm Lilith and these are my fellow fairies. First, please introduce yourself! What is your name?"

And then, she leaned forward as if to show me her cleavage with open arms as if to invite me in. Then her small hands touched my face...

For some reason I felt discomfort. Something fundamental that our parents taught about people we just met, even if its a fine lady.

......

No, I'm not gay, I'm just smart enough to not get harassed by a stranger!

Also, fairies are supposed to be shy creatures. They usually evade humans. Why are these ones so different?

"That dress you're wearing is showing to much skin for me! Since, it's the first time we meet, please don't come too close and don't touch me..."

The fairy did not lose her smile and flew a little backwards.

"Why? You don't like me? Well, if you insist, who do you prefer to be your guide?"

I gazed upon the swarm of buzzing fairies, who are also whispering among each other.

Then a question came to my mind.

Why do they have this on a game that is open to all ages?

What? Isn't this like an online dating website or the kind people go online and date on cam?

That is what you called an escort?!

I need to ask more questions.

"Who is your leader here?"

"No one!"

Something doesn't seem right...

"Don't fairies serve a queen? "

"We are masters of ourselves!"

I don't know what's bugging me, but my momma told me not to talk to strangers, especially those who are too nice to you and don't talk no lies. I better try to leave.

"I don't think I need any one to escort me... I can just find out on my own..."

It's a free world right? I'll just figure out on my own.

"You're not leaving until you pick one of us!"

The fairy who always did the talking suddenly became irritated and started to raise her voice.

I tried to walk faster but in a moment I'm surrounded by the fairies again. Looks like they're getting angry.

"What do you want? I'll give it to you. Money, pretty girls, fun, food, anything! Just let me know your name!"

"I am quite self-proficient, thank you. And for some reason, I can't remember my name. Can you let me go now?"

"NO!!!! I WILL HAVE YOU ONE WAY OR OTHER!"

Hysterically, the fairy lost her temper and screamed. Then suddenly, the surroundings changed! Everything changed. The scenery became scary and stone-grey, empty like a wilderness! Most of the fairies turned into little creatures with bat wings and flew past me. I noticed that the pink-dressed butterfly-winged one grew and grew until it is the size of a human teenager and the butterfly wings disappeared to be replaced by bat wings bursting open. It is a demon that resembled a sexually seductive woman but with horns like a cow and with beast fangs and... bat wings...

"Why don't you want to have me? I can make you happy~~"

"So you are a succubus... What's your goal?"

"To have you for dinner of course... Boys in their twenties like you should filled with perverted thoughts so you should had been attracted to me! Then I can have your life energy for a long time and have you sell me your soul to give to my master!"

"Enough of this! HOE, my ass! I will not fall under your illusion and I am not afraid of you! Begone!"

"You don't seem to be attracted to pretty girls. How can this be??! Can it be you are gay?! I will call my fellow incubi to come and service you!!"

"No, you won't! HAAA!!" With a fast motion, I made a sword-wielding stance and stabbed in the direction of the succubus, aiming at the ground beneath her.

"That's not goin- AA!!AAA!!!AAARRRGGH!!! Wha~~??!"

Before she could react or even think about moving, the succubus was stabbed from every direction by a mass of emerald-green stakes that burst forth from the ground in a radius. Those are dozens of bamboo plants that are sharp on the tip had been summoned like a spear trap. The succubus was impaled and pinned on the spot but showed no signs of dying. The wounds inflicted did not draw blood but created holes with black, slightly distorting mist. I gave a smirk from the success.

“How~~??!” Not able to move or believe what had just happened, the succubus asked. “This is the dream realm, I should be able to have complete control over you.”

“Well, for one, your speech are full of logical holes. Since I cannot tell whether you are really here in body or whether you are a player or a NPC (with or without AI abilities), I can’t tell you which ones gave you off. However, I can tell you I won because I believed.”

“Believe??! What the hell would you believe in? You think it can overpower me?!!”

“I believe it is my dream we’re in, so I have power over my dreams. Then, I know I saw that move once before (on the preview video) which was summoned by a magic swordsman. If seeing is believing then the reverse should be also true. In fact, that is the whole power of belief, especially over something that had not happened yet. I believed also that I’m one of the strongest player this world. I imagine myself with a magic shinai and walla~~” I waved about the weapon that had materialised in my hands when I performed the technique.

“What are the elements in magic? Is it fire, water, earth, air and so on? Yes they are, but that’s not all. The main element in a fantasy world with magic is imagining and visualizing. This might be extremely difficult in real world, slightly difficult in the fantasy world, but hey, this is my dream. If I don’t believe in myself in my own dreams, there’s no way I can succeed in real life, right? You lose!”

There was a long moment of silence, then finally a sulky “Hmmph!!” was heard from succubus with an expression as dirty as ****. She’s not willing to admit but she had lost. She then resumed her attempts of trying to free herself with a face of grimace that covered her beauty like a dark cloud dimmed the moon! However, all was in vain!! I believed that my trap to be able to seal all her movements and so it did!! Bamboo is nearly unbreakable in tight clusters after all!

“Let’s end this!! The previous technique is the technique I've seen from the trailer ad, named “Lightspeed groundbreak, Bamboo-splitting Impact (光速破土，势如破竹)”. Now this, is my personal idea, an orginal Skill I had in mind!! Here goes nothing!! ‘From the earth burst forth plant life and plants collect the power of sunlight and so with lightspeed growth and propagation, my bamboo sword will burst forth new dawn and purge evil and darkness… Believe till dawn break at heart---Chest Driven Bamboo Stake Dawn Breaking Sword (胸有成竹, 破晓剑黎)! ” With one step forward and a number of quick stabs, I used an original technique with exorcising abilities. The bamboo stakes from the previous move shone bright and my sword hits also shone like miniature suns.

The succubus screamed hellishly as it died and vaporised into black mist. The bright light showed the silhouette of the bamboo stakes and then enveloped the whole field, brighter and brighter. Then I woke from the dream and opened my eyes to find a whole new world and an unexpected life ahead of me.
