Violet and Martia's mornings are always the same every time, even in another world.
At 6:00 AM, the two of them (along with the little dragon) take their morning workout to the balcony above the house, sweating out under the morning sun, along with the cool breeze that flows through the neighborhood.
Of course, being the two of them, they of course practice under the transparent super gravitational, time-dilated field that set them up under the condition of being 100 times heavier, and 100 times slower than the outside world...It of course count as a light jog for both of them, since they don't want to make too much of a scene.
Incidentally, if they try a bit harder, they could easily surpass the speed of light, and make millions of push-ups in a second.
----------------------------------------
In the mean times...
"Milady, are you sure you want to do this?"
Up in the air inside a flying airplane, around 5,000 meters up, Sebastian is speaking toward his master with a really concerned voice.
"Don't worry! I have my parachute here, and you already know that I have taken many skydiving lessons just for this occasion!"
Wearing a brown bulky jumpsuit and a big pair of goggles on her fair face, a young lady in her 20s is letting her coiled blond hair flutter against the cool winds, as she spoke reassuringly toward him with a thumb up.
"You know that's not what I meant, Milady! I mean do you need to do this just to greet them?" (Sebastian)
"Of course! I need to greet them like this just to have a chance to surprise my savior with my visit! Plus, after a skydiving session like this, eating their wonderfully delicious homemade breakfast is sure to be even more satisfying!"
"Still..."
"Oh, you're worrying too much Sebastian...My eyes confirm me that I wouldn't die today, so there is nothing to worry about."
"On the contrary, there is everything to worry about, with the way you keep using your gift to perform daredevil stunt, Milady... Ever since the day you get saved by them, your antics just keep getting worse and worse, the doctor even gives me horse tranquilizer to help me relax."
"And you should be, since I will be fineee, I promise... Said, after I jump out of this plane, I'll allow you a 2 weeks vacation to destress your nerve. I even checked out a 5-star hotel in Hawaii for you as well!"
"I don't know, Milady. I feel like leaving you alone for 2 weeks would jeopardize my poor ticker even more..."
"That's an order, Sebastian. Anyway, bye, GERONIMOOOO!!!"
"Waittt, Miladyyyy!"
Seeing the lady immediately jump out of the plane, the butler screamed toward her as he watch her giddily gliding away from a great height, his heart nearly jump out of its ribcage.
"Okay, calm down, Sebastian. Milady's gift confirmed that she will be okay, so there is nothing to worry about...Hm? Why is there a bag here?"
As he tried to calm his errating heart on the verge of stopping, he found a bulky bag lying near him, looking conspicuously.
"Did Milady forget to take it with her when she's jumping out-Wait the second, why did she take a bag with her at all?... Speaking of which, the bag she took with her looks less bulky than this one..."
Suddenly faced with a much horrifying possibility, he tremblingly opened the bag, with his hand shaking so much he look like a senile octogenarian. As he opened the bag...
He found a packed parachute, along with a single note:
"Oops, look like I forgot the parachute.
-Love, Godiva Cassandra"
Along with a smiley face on the bottom.
Seeing that, his poor ticker finally gave out, and he collapsed on the spot, his eyes rolling backward.
----------------------------------------
"Good grief...Magi, extend the selective perception barrier into a bulb formation. Exactly 3 kilometers in diameters, and 4 kilometers tall" (Violet)
"As you wish, Master." (Magi)
As Violet and Martia both watch Godiva falling to the ground without a parachute from afar, waving and smiling all the way down to her death, Martia immediately jumps upward to catch her, while Violet immediately ordered Magi to extend the barrier to the sky to hide what they're doing.
As the barrier shoot upward, following along with Martia while remaining invisible to the naked eyes, it then "blooms" outward, forming a wide bulb that covers the sky above them.
For the people that can see them, the barrier turns into a giant beautiful flower, covering the ground itself with its majesty while engulfing her in the petals.
As the suicidal lady is admiring the view she saw below, Martia finally catch up to her from below, and catches her gently in a princess carry.
"Blancie, extend your wing please!" (Martia)
"Kyu!!" (Blanc)
As she wrap her hand around Martia, clearly enjoying the situation, Martia called out for Blanc who also came along with her. In response, Blanc grabs onto her back with her claw, before opening up her wings far and wide, transforming her tiny flappers into a massive wing, extending far on both sides and acting as the glider to slow down their descent.
"...Look like that's it for our morning exercise. Magi, please guide Lady Godiva in properly, while I'm going in and prepare the breakfast." (Violet)
Seeing as the two slowly glide down and around in the vicinity of the barriers, with Godiva clearly giggling herself with joy, Violet goes back into the house, while Magi guides the descending party with the signal flag she took out from nowhere...
----------------------------------------
After she prepared the ingredient in the kitchen, Violet tie up the apron, before looking at the necklace on her neck.
"Mani, could you please help me?"
In response, the necklace shines a bit, and an object materializes in her hand...It's a hard-to-describe object, but it looks like a hammer at a glance.
Seeing such, she takes an egg and gently cracks it apart with it, letting the yolk fall inside the bowl one after another. After she place enough egg yolk into the bowl, the vague-shaped object turn into a vague-shaped whistler, and began automatically beating the eggs inside the bowl. In the meanwhile, she began to heat up the frying pan with butter and oil inside it, until the butter is melted and foaming.
After the egg is beaten and seasoned with salt and peppers, she pours the beaten egg over the pan, beginning to fry it. As she does so, she also began to place multiple ingredients into the air (mushroom, herb, mysterious sparkly-colored ham, etc...), as the mysterious object turns into something resembling a mixer, mixing the ingredient mid-air into a seven-colored paste, before gently placing and mixing it along with the frying egg.
Finally, as the egg mix settled, she began to place the seven-colored rice over the fried egg, and fold it in half with a spatula-like object, before serving it on a plate.
As Godiva, still wearing her jumpsuit and goggle, bravely dug into the seven-colored omelette made with questionable process, she immediately found herself enraptured, as multiple flavors began to mix inside her mouth and send her on the trip to deliciousness. Chowing down vigorously on the omelette, she give praise to Violet with a mouth full of food.
"Wow, it's very delish! The way you cook is as eye-catching as always, but the food always came out great!" (Godiva)
If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
"Thanks. The ingredients carry most of the weight, and all I did was make a simple omelette." (Violet)
"A "simple" omelette with a bright mix of colors and taste like something made by a 3 Michelin stars chef...Like usual, you don't have the concept of common sense." (Godiva)
"People said that a lot...Martia, Blanc, here's your portion." (Violet)
"Yayy!!...It's delicious as usual, Big Sis!" (Martia)
"Kyu!" (Blanc)
As both of them immediately warf down on the two piles of rice omelette the same height as themselves, they both cheerfully thanked Violet with a big bright smile on their face. Seeing such, Godiva can't help but glomp over Martia, constantly rubbing her cheek against her's.
"Uuu, as always the main meal really is Martia~~~. Martia as a boy is cute, but Martia as a girl really is another flavor of adorable with her boyishness. How did you avoid just adopting Martia right on the spot?" (Godiva)
"With great effort and willpower." (Violet)
"Oh yeah, you're so cute as well, Blanchie. Give me your cheeks~~" (Godiva)
"Kyu~!" (Blanc)
As they all continued their meal (and Godiva turn to Blachie instead), the doorbell suddenly ring constantly, and shortly after, Sebastian come rushing over to the kitchen with a haggar face, messy clothing, and out of breath.
"Thanks...Goodness...You're Fine...Milady..." (Sebastian)
"Wow, 27 minutes and 30 seconds, that's a new record isn't it?" (Godiva)
"Why...would you...jump out...without a parachute...!" (Sebastian)
"Well, I wouldn't be able to bring my gift along if I did wear it, no ?" (Godiva)
"That...isn't...a...good...reason...Thank you, Lady Martia....for the drink." (Sebastian)
"No problem. You should sit down as well, Uncle Sebastian." (Martia)
As Martia leads him to the chair nearby and tends to the poor butler, Godiva then takes out from her bag a box of chocolate, with a "Cassandra Foundation" branding on the top.
"Anyway, here you go. I imagine both of you like sweet as well, so I bring you two a box of calendar chocolate for you to enjoy!" (Godiva)
"...It's missing a piece at the top left." (Violet)
"Well, it's the 2nd of September right now, so you only need 29 pairs of chocolate, right?" (Godiva)
As Godiva playfully smiles while sticking out her tongue, Violet carefully places the box inside the cabinet, before asking her again, looking straight at her eyes.
"Not that we minded much...but do you really need to do all of this just to give us this present?" (Violet)
"Well, as they said..."Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're gonna get." As such, I want to give you guy a box of chocolate as flavorful as I can." (Godiva)
Removing her goggle and revealing her dichromatic eyes of emerald and citrine, she look directly at her with a cheeky smile, and replied as such.
"Well, you guys are going to start the game soon right? After I finished moving into my new house, I will soon join you guys in the game, so wait for me til then!" (Godiva)
"...Ex,cuse, me, Milady. Since, When, Do, You, Think, Your, Work, Is, Done?" (Sebastian)
"...Ah." (Godiva)
Looking back behind her, she saw that Sebastian have his attire back together, and is standing firmly behind her with a stern look.
"...Well, since I have done so much already, I also get a chance to rest, right?" (Godiva)
"Like, Hell, You, Are, Milady!!!" (Sebastian)
"Owowowow!!!" (Godiva)
Not fooled by her kitten smile, the butler instead pulled at her ears, and dragged her out of the house.
"Come on, until we are done relocating our headquarter and restaffing our employee into a new location, you ain't done working yet!!" (Sebastian)
"OuchieOuchie, all right Sebastian...Then, remember to at least tell me where you guys start, okay?" (Godiva)
As Godiva slowly gets dragged back into her limousine, with the two greeting them goodbye, Godiva suddenly remembered something, and briefly comes out.
"Oh yeah, I forgot to mention...Just enjoy the game the way you want to do so, okay?" (Godiva)
"Yeah, we will, Big Sis Godiva!" (Martia)
"Get back here already, young lady!" (Sebastian)
"Owowow, I know already, Sebastian..." (Godiva)
Quickly getting pulled back into the Limousine again, they finally drive away from the neighborhood. With Martia energetically waving goodbye, they soon go back into the house.
"Now then, remember to wash the dishes, before we go into the VR room okay?" (Violet)
"Yes, Big Sis!" (Martia)
"Kyu!" (Blanc)
"Magi, since we will be busy with the game in the future, I'm letting you in charge of the cooking job as well. Make sure that it's good." (Violet)
"Of course, My Master." (Magi)
As Violet ordered Magi to prepare the food, they began preparing themselves to finally begin playing the game...
----------------------------------------
"Let's see...'Thank you for buying Deep Diver Extreme 5, the latest in full-immersion VR technology, specifically made for Isekai Online...' "
Violet read out the brochure for the machine they bought, as the both of them look at 2 huge white pods, placed on the side of the room, along with various other gears.
" '...aside from the latest Deep Dive ™ tech, it also has air conditioner, massaging interior, indoor sleep mode, etc...' Do the people on this planet like to have these options?" (Violet)
"Yeah, they even made VR pods for pet as well, so they can join with you in your virtual experience...Thanks to that, even Blancie can play along with us though." (Martia)
"Kyu~~~" (Blanc)
Martia said, as she saw Blanc immediately opening up her own little pod and diving inside, clearly enjoying the soft and massaging bedding as she make a sweet cry.
"Hm, guess for them, playing a VR is all about the social experience and comfort...Anyway, so this thing is like a pocket illusion chamber we have back home, from what I looked at." (Violet)
"Yeah, going inside, look like the various mechanism inside is supposed to fool and induce your sense into a deep sleep, and show you the corresponding vision and feeling. It also simultaneously read the thought and feeling you have in your mind, which allow you to control the "character" you play inside the game...Is what it seems like at a glance, but..." (Martia)
"My thought exactly. This thing seems way too overbuilt, if all it needs to do is that. It even has technology which sprung out nano-scale automatons, along with many other mechanisms which does way more than what is advertised..." (Violet)
"It looks like a small-scale version of an illusion chamber, but it's actually more like an illusion world chamber instead, in which it drags the user into an artificial world..." (Martia)
"That does explain why we can directly go into that world ourselves, despite it being a game...Nevertheless, since the mechanisms itself is purposefully hidden, I don't think many of them will be a part of the expected way of usage. So long that we don't trigger anything strange, we should be fine." (Violet)
"Not to mention, it doesn't look like any of them will be able to affect us in the first place, unless we let them to, of course." (Martia)
"Yeah...to purposefully let yourself into a dream-like world, that sounds like a good training experience. Anyway, it said here that you can set it into Synch Mode, in which two or more people will be able to join at the same time and share their experience together without lag or missing out. In Isekai Online specifically, it allows a family to be able to do the character creation and tutorial together, instead of separated..." (Violet)
Hearing that, both Martia and Blanc immediately jump up to her with beaming eyes.
"Woah...so that means me, Big Sis, and Blancie is going to be able to do those things together in the same place? That sound pretty cool!" (Martia)
"Hm, another feature which promotes social experience...It's convenient as well, since there are quite a few things I want to test with the three of us first before joining the game proper. Are you with me, Martia and Blanc?" (Violet)
"Always has been, always will be, Big Sis!" (Martia)
"Kyukukyu!!" (Blanc)
After raising their hand up energetically, they both giddily dive into their own respective pod and sit comfortably inside. As Violet take out her necklace and earrings and left it on the table, before also elegantly entering the pod, she said to them words of reminder.
"Oh yeah. Blancie, remember to hide your wings, we don't want the other side to know that you're a dragon just yet." (Violet)
"Kyu!" (Blanc)
"Same goes to you too, Martia. Don't accidentally reveal your boy form in excitement. We have to disguise ourselves for a reason after all." (Violet)
"Already got it, Big Sis! Plus, it has been a while since I used The Way Of The Womanly Art, so this serves as a good training!" (Martia)
"Good. Well then, let's dive in, as the people in this world said." (Violet)
After that, the three of them close the pod together, simultaneously start the machine, and activated its Synch Mode.

As they let themselves into a deep sleep, they found themselves getting moved into a different world...
