Prologue
In the universe, there are beings that are worshipped as Gods on all habitable planets, even with all their powers and technology they could not live forever, or at least in their bodies that age. So, they began researching a way to live immortally, they could not find any organic way to be immortal so they built a virtual reality using the universe as the basis, they created all the planets identically the same as they were before, only adding things like infinite resources, ability to harness energy of all forms etc. Then after the completion of the virtual reality, they made some AI systems with emotions and souls and then digitalized themselves effectively becoming actual Gods in the virtual world. Even though they were digitalized they still had an impenetrable network across the universe, so they divided themselves and spread themselves through their network to a sector of the universe (a sector consists of 5 galaxies), and built factories on every planet to make the virtual reality machines for both immersion into the virtual world and for those who wanted to be digitalized to prevent death of the mind/soul. “Fun fact the “Gods” only shared their technology to immortality because they were bored and felling lonely alone in the virtual world”. And so, as the Gods, through the networks and new android bodies, created a universe wide company V-Company, to use and share the virtual reality pods/helmets and digitalization pods. In Sector 7501, the Sol system, on a planet called Earth by its inhabitants, when this technology was brought to them, and they were allowed access to the Universal Network, they quickly used the knowledge from the Universal Network to solve all the problems that plagued the little planet, they solved their world hunger, solved all diseases and viruses and revolutionized their entire world.

On Earth, the arrival of the ‘Gods’ allowed them to finally stop their useless squabbles and unite to explore the newly available Universal Network and Virtual Reality provided by V-company named “Freedom Universe Online” or F.O for short. They created a galactic council with members and representatives from all the countries of the world, to follow the rules given by the Gods and other administrators of F.O.
In a hospital room, we see a weak looking 16-year-old boy laying on a bed looking at the serious face of the doctor in front of him. The doctor says “It’s the only way, the way you are right now you only have a month left. If you don’t take the opportunity soon you may lose the chance to do it. Take a few days to consider, I will return for your answer soon”, the doctor leaves me alone in the room and goes away after finishing his statement. After he leaves I begin to think to myself [ He’s right, let me just do it, it will be for the better, at least mom and dad left rather early so they didn’t have to be here cause’ they would have disagreed, since they will not visit any time soon I can do it and call them from there]. After deciding, I fall asleep to conserve some of my energy. When I wake up, I have my meal and then the doctor comes in and says, “Have you decided”, I answer “yes, I am going to do it. Can it be done today”, the doctor responds, “Yes we can begin the procedure now, are you ready”, I tell him “I am ready, let’s go and do it”. The doctor takes me to the digitalization chamber and straps me to the chair and leaves to the control room and talks through the loudspeaker, “The process will soon begin”, he activates the machine and I hear the machine whirr to life and then after a while a light blinds me and knocks me out. On the outside, the light turns his organic body into streams of data and injects them into the Universal Network.
