Into a Game! ~ Prologue

Danzel Kang, an average highschool in his senior year, is an occational truant.

He is quite a hand full of trouble!!!

'Hmmm... I guess, I'll cut again today and play more games... '

He got always the average mark of a passing grade ranging from C- to A-.

Well, It is just understandable since he only go to school whenever there is a quiz or an exam and attending only for his required number of days.

And when there is a quiz and an exam, his trusted childhood friend will give him the notes for it and Danzel will scan it for a minute and then he will automatically understand and memorized it.

'Ah... just like always.' his childhood friend taught "Hey, Danzel! Can you teach me how can you learn that so fast?!"

"... I don't know how? But, I can tutor you..." is Danzel's reply.

'Yeah, this one is a Genius...' his childhood friend taught so.

About his grades...

He just purposely make mistakes and adjust it into a passing grade of C-.

But, when he want something from his parents he will also purposely make it higher than that, until A-.

So we can say he can control his grades pretty well.

Since, it was his parents condition anyway.

"Son, you don't need to be the best in school. Me and your father are actually highschool drop-outs but please graduate... please graduate until HIGHSCHOOL!!!'"

This is what they said at him before his gradeschool days.

His parents are actually both poor in academics and quite lacking on the head, so they thought that he becoming dumb like them is quite a given. His father, an korean-american, works as a gym instructor and his mother, a pure korean, as a seamstress.

Hearing that and knowing his ability, he has calculated that he has now more time in playing outside with his friends and computer games!

He has maintained that grade until Highschool and the only one knows his secret is that childhood friend of his.

Until his senior year, a seriously meddlesome girl got her attention on Danzel, their senior year class rep and also the bearer of the highest grade of the whole school and his batch.

"That's it, Danzel! I challenged you to a duel this incoming exam!"

'You can fool everyone here but I know YOU HAVE BEEN PURPOSELY DOING 'THAT' THE WHOLE TIME!!! Why, are you belittling me?'

Uhm. No! As a matter of fact, the whole school knows that! Well, it is only applicable to those who lived in the area so it is quite understandable for the class rep not knowing about that since she just got transferred in the area for Highschool.

And just as suspected, Danzel won...

Well, you can't beat a genius afterall!

But, the class rep didn't give up and kept challenging him.

And, as a result Danzel got recognized formally by the school as the hidden 'einstein'.

The class rep was so devastated but something started to grow on her chest... and it is not hate or anger but something more sweet and pleasant.

She got ensnared by him.

So when the news of Danzel's sudden disappearance, she became to emotional that it affect her greatly especially her studies.

"...why? I haven't told you... m...my (sudden cry*)"

So what really happened to Danzel? Well...

He got frustrated on his game and throw his game console out of the window. Nah, that's a normal daily occurance.

The thing is... he fell while throwing the game console out of the window.

And...

Jajan!!!

~ Welcome to Mineral Town!!!

His body become like the character in Minecraft games - block head seamingly wearing a cap, rectangular shaped limbs, another block but larger and quite longer as his torso, and his attire was as a farmer.

Danzel recognized this get up.

'Harvest Moon?'

Seeing that he just entered the world of a game that he just played and destroyed earlier he got shocked for a minute but... his quite happy of the idea.

"I am inside a game!!!"

The fantasy of every gamer!

So since he knew the mechanics of the game he just played like how it was supposed to be played.

The three years has passed, he got the farm up and become well developed, the villagers liked him so all in all he cleared the game but...

He didn't came out of the game like he thought it would.

The game characters here doesn't really grew old and he doesn't really like someone among the villagers to become his wife so he married the Harvest goddess, just for fun.

He got all his tools at it's max level which is Mystrile.

His livestock all know produced the best they can make.

His farm and house is now completely upgraded.

His lumber and produce shipped for each item count has long become 999.

There is no more recipe on the game that he didn't know.

All the maiden candidate had already married.

Kappa and him is already friends.

He already collected all the red heart shaped fruit and the blue ones as well.

He already caught all the king fish.

What left was to reach the secret lowest floor of the mine that Kappa told him.

And so like that, another six years has passed.

So basically, he has grown bored of his daily life.

Got nothing to do, he dugged deeper and deeper and has amassed quite a basket full of variety of ores, not full actually since the basket can never be full even if you put a mountain of ores in it.

Twelve years have passed and finally!

He found the secret lowest floor of the waterfall mine!!

It was a vast underground lake with waters that clear as crystal and taste so magical that it replenish your stamina and fatigue completely!

But the most eye catching was a floating swirling water thing in the middle of the lake, at the end of the stone way.

'It's... the EXIT!'

With such thoughts in his mind he quickly grabbed the basket he was carrying and run towards the swirling water but what awaits him is not what he thought it was.
