October 6, 2138 -
- Location: somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. -
In the vast blue ocean, an odd island can be seen out of nowhere with an enormous mansion within it.
Curious onlookers would definitely cause a ruckus like causing rumours into the internet if not for the fact that this peculiar Manor and the private island is owned by a 'very' rich and influential family lineage.
The Manor is enormous when it comes to size, filled with various rooms such as a ballroom and the like. The Manor was full of grandeur and Ancient artefacts back in the Modern era and miscellaneous for practical and aesthetic reasons.
Each room has its purposes and various guards and maidens/maids rooming the manor with such proficiency and excellence in their works.
Inside of the master bedroom, A pre-teen can be seen excitedly bouncing on the gigantic bed as he held a peculiar helmet. The helmet has a unique design, similar to that of a nerve gear from SAO. A Fictional show from the early twentieth centuries or so.
And like its Idolized version, the functions are no different from the sci-fi show. The device allowed the user to enter into a virtual world where you can See, Feel, Taste and Smell etc on another level. But the difference is that the one the boy held doesn't trap the user in a Murder-death-Kill scenario.
" Ahahahahahaah~ A product of their sweat and blood was stolen by a gaming company!
I can't believe that a device used by a Neuroscience company for medical purposes was stolen and reversed engineered, only to find out about it when it was released in the gaming industry. Man the look in their faces is priceless when they found out the patents~."
"Looks like you have a good night brother."
An amused voice broke the teen's musings as he briefly glances at his younger brother in their bed, lying lazily in the fluffy sheets while reading an old manga.
"Has another news from the media sparks some... 'hedonistic' pleasures within you?" He teases his brother, but quickly pout when he notice that it's ignored.
"Perhaps. But this feeling surely couldn't be confined to simple pleasure.
Invigoration,
Elation,
Jubilation,
Er- other words that end in -Ation.
Trust me, brother dearest. You'll find this one comedic in the future when you improve your... 'humorous' personality .
Hm-hm-hu-hu-ha-ha-ha-ha~."
"...What a weird sibling."
He replied with a flip of a page as his attention returned to his beloved manga, and suddenly becomes shock-still at his brother's unexpected remark.
"You're still reading that crap? I thought we've long talked about your habits about reading porn in the open, you closet pervert. "
" Wha- It's not what your thinking! Akame ga kill is not a porn magazine like you've readen. "
" Pfft. As if the skin they've shown is not categorized as a porno, just go to the website called Brazzers and I'll Gladly let you borrow my account. "
The boy chokes in embarrassment and incredulity that his brother just compared one of his cultured books to the thots.
"GaHahahaaha~ what an amusing face you have-Gahahahaha~"
"M'ugh... just. Just stop. What is that anyway? It Looks like a nerve gear from Sao."
"Because this IS a nerve gear, it's a high calibre virtual helmet that works the same as the one in the show."
"Wait. So we can..."
The older brother saw the curiosity that lingers in his brother's eyes, so he grin like a loon and excitedly replies his query.
The author's content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.
"Yes. But sadly there's no floating castle thingie-"
"(Mutters) Aincrad."
- and obviously, there's no frying your brain schtick, it's the same as the other VRs only that it's far more superior in quality and ingenuity. Also, I downloaded a new game based on our favourite show. The Fate series. "
" Wait wait wait. You mean THE fate series?" He asks in confusion.
"Such games would enamour my attention unless it's horrendous of course. But knowing you, I don't think it's a bloody useless game with boring story lines."
"Yes and no. I didn't say anything about it being publicized, because this was hand-crafted by our cake Butler. "
" ...The cake Butler knows about techno stuff?
I thought programming requires extensive knowledge about it. I've never heard Uncle Joe... *incomprehensible mumbles.*"
"Eh, who cares."
"I care because it would be inside our head. Jeez, how careless are you, you muscle-bound dunce."
"Oi, just because I'm a bodybuilding fanatic doesn't mean I'm a stereotype Idiot. What makes you think of that anyway."
"You."
"Don't get smart with me, also why would our family Butler put us in danger?
Are you that paranoid in, I dunno. Everything?"
"Sigh. Am I even the youngest?
Your lack of awareness is rather worrying brother, also I see your point. And..."
"Oh give your brother some credit would ya? And what can I say?
Im a rather free-spirited-individual in his youth~!"
"Ugh... how noisy... Can we play it already?"
The eldest of the two smiled as he scurried to grab the other pair and hand it towards his skeptic brother.
"Gladly~!" He replies with excitement that he gets to bond with his younger brother.
They both equip it with the necessary miscellaneous to efficiently run the VR. Especially the life support so they can play for who knows how long. They've already notified their personal Butlers so it would ease they're worries and only interrupt them if necessary, like their familial members.
" Link. Startu/Start. "

A myriad of colours exploded into their visions as the helmet let out soft neon glows into their helm.
Once the blinding lighting died down, the brothers were given a character selection.
---
The lighting effects eventually dimmed and revealed a Character selection in front of me, the excitement throbbing within my heart Increases as I heavily inspect them each of their basic parameters, knowing the Time gap, I took most of my time inspecting them with absolute focus. But eventually felt disappointed that most of the OP or SSR servants are out of selection.
"What a let down, oh well. Wait a minute... Phew, Glad that tou weren't gone Ber-sa-ka~"
He found the window selection of Heracles, And mentally select it and take his time to read his background and impressive parameters.

'Woah what a thorough details indeed. Err... let's see, In the game's time. 7 day's is equivalent to 24 hours in the real time. So... ugh.'
I'll let the mathematics into my brother.
The player shrugs indifferently and chose Berserker: Hercules as his permanent gaming Avatar.
A life like model of Hercules appears in front of him, making him in awe at the giant's presence.
" Look at those triceps, biceps, chest muscles... wow those are some dense muscle tissues, look at them abs. You could grind cheese with it."
I mentally wipe my drooling image and confirmed my selection.
"Heheheheh..."
I giggled mischievously at the upcoming gaming season with my brother, and oh boy do I have a lot of surprises.
