POV: Unknown Player
Welcome hero to the world you love most!
A loud voice yelled into my head making me wake up instantly.
As I opened my eyes I saw that I was in a white plane that normally would make me go blind, and in the middle of everything was a huge golden figure all made with squares.
The figure had huge golden wings that surrounded me like a hug, letting me see each individual feather of light and gold.
The face would be of amazing beauty if it didn't have a huge nose in the middle to ruin it all.
"S-sorry?"
Hero! Your heart exploded in your old world and were chosen to live in the world you love most. Minecraft!
Suddenly memories came back to me.
I was an engineer but got fired for a small mistake, and I decided to take a break until I jump back into work, my savings were enough to hold me a whole year.
So I took this opportunity to let the kid inside me enjoy himself by playing games.
I bought, I played and enjoyed my life for the first time. I didn't like to waste time sleeping and showering so I started to drink coffee and energy drinks.
But slowly I built tolerance so I had to get more extreme.
The last thing I remembered was drinking a cup with three shots of espresso mixed with two energy drinks.
My chest started to hurt, and I woke up here.
I died because of my recklessness, but now I'm going to get another chance to live In my favorite game.
What a life.
"Ok, I'm excited about this, but I don't remember the game needing a hero in the first place."
Oh hero, the world you'll be going will be a little different than what you know. I guide the world with a System, but the Void is sending her avatars to destroy my world. Please kill it together with the other hero!
So I'm not the only hero.
That's a little disappointing, but I've read stories where the second hero was the Main Character, so I'm not in the red yet.
"If I'm going to be Isekaied, I should get some special abilities right?"
The being of light though for a moment, which made me think that the previous hero didn't get something like this.
Did that hero get scammed?
Indeed, hero, you shall receive a special gift. You will be given an enchanted gold sword from the beginning, and since you have a background in engineering, you will start the Crafting skill at level 3.
Now go, grow, and defend this world in my name and you shall be rewarded!
Light gathered in front of me and took the shape of a beautifully decorated sword.
This was the true sword of the hero, and I shall defeat all enemies with it!
"Can you give me something to cut with my sword? I want to test It's sharpness."
I can grant your request, so I'll summon you at night in the world. Be careful about the first apostle of the Void! He may look human, but he's with the enemy.
Wait!
I didn't ask for that, and what's the deal with the first apostle?
That sounds super important!
But I felt my guts being pulled down, and I wasn't in a plane of light anymore, Instead, I was surrounded by trees and darkness.
I looked down and saw that I wore a brown shirt with blue pants, and in my hand, I held a golden sword that reflected the light of the moon on its blade.
Around me, there were cubic trees that I only saw beyond the screen.
A wave of fear, uncertainty, and excitement rushed all over me, but before I could sort those emotions out, a deep voice caught my attention.
I quickly turned around and saw a Zombie, much more realistic and scary than in the game.
"This wasn't what I requested, but I guess the best way to test a weapon is on the field."
A smile appeared on my face and ran with my sword at the monster and cut him in half with one swing.
The Zombie fell on the ground and didn't move from there.
He was dead for good.
"That's...more powerful than I expected. I wonder-"
Before I could finish my sentences an arrow flew into my shoulder bringing signal's of pain to my brain.

I yelled loudly as I looked at the one who shot me.
It was a skeleton that was preparing its bow for another shot.
I wasn't going to let that happen again, so I ran towards it in a zig zag missing all the arrows shot at me.
When I arrive in front of the skeleton I swing my sword and the skeleton catches on fire then turn to ash
"It also has a Fire Aspect? But the Zombie didn't burn like the skeleton."
A loud hiss caught my attention next, which made me look at the trees.
A huge black spider looked at me with madden eyes ready to attack, but I wasn't going to make the same mistake as with the skeleton.
As the monster jumped at me, I rolled to the side, then ran back at the monster to kill it in one slash like the others.
This was so easy!
But I couldn't let my guard down, as three of the classic mobs appeared one after another.
But the most recognized one hasn't appeared yet.
The Creeper.
I looked around me with eagle eyes and saw something moving into the darkness.
I was right, as with silent steps the monster got closer to me ready to blow me up.
Slowly he started to inflate, signaling the start of the explosion.
But I wasn't going to stand and watch, instead, I took my sword and killed it with one swing.
"This feels amazing!"
And for the rest of the night, I kept killing monsters left and right.
----
The sun appeared on the sky, the monsters started to retreat or got burned alive.
Finally I had enough time to look at how this world was different then what I know, and what I found was shocking.
Instinctively I knew that I had three tabs that I could open at any time.
Inventory, Status and Skills.
My inventory was empty with the exception of the golden sword, and when I looked at its enchantments I was taken by surprise.
-
Gold sword:
-Sharpness 15
-Unbreaking 7
-Mending
-Burning Bone 1*
-
This Sword could deal a wapping 20 hearts of damage!
A full health bar for any player without armor!
No wonder all the monsters died in one slash.
The enchantments were all costum with the exception of Mending, and I've never hear abou Burning Bone 1*, but I can guess it's the reason the skeleton turned to ashes.
I'm not going to complain about it.
As for the others tabs...

Everything was clear to me, and I was ready to start my new life.
Even if it wasn't exactly like what I rembered, is essentially the same, just more fun.
First things first let's get myself some wooden tools to get to the good stuff.
With my sword I chopped the tree, with the wood from them I made a Crafting table and some wooden tools.
With those tools I got more resources until I got stone tools.
"Good, I now have a few blocks, some apples to eat and some stone tools. I'm feeling thirsty right now so I should find a clean river to drink water from. But my next priority should be to find a village."
I felt a gentle but constant pull in my soul towards a certain direction.
Instinctively I knew that way was the location of the Monster Lord, but I don't know if it spawn besides civilisation.
After a bit of thinking, I decided to take the risk and follow the pull until I'll find a road or a village.
And like that I was on the road for a whole week.
I passed many rivers that calmed my thirst and even had the opportunity to drink some milk from a cow.
Of course I didn't have a bucked, but wooden bowls seemed to work just fine. It was such a shame that I had to kill it afterwards to eat some of it's meat.
But because this world doesn't work on a drop system I had to butcher it myself and wasted a lot of meat result with only two pieces of beef.
This would be the only thing I'll complain about this world.
I don't like to dirty my hands with blood, and I don't like to disect creepers to get their gunpowder.
The other mobs I didn't even bother to disect, and let them to burn in the sun like the trash they were.
The only use they had was to repair my golden sword.
I also manged to find some iron, but unfortunately I didn't have the level necessary to craft anything with it, I had to be level 4 for that.
But my patience paid off, as at the end of the week I managed to find a small village.
It wasn't a great find as it only had two wheat farms and no church or Smith house.
But what took me by surprise was the fact that the viligers could actually talk like normals people, not just hums.
I can say that I was taken aback when everyone yelled at me, at why I was stealing their crops.
I talked with the head of the village, an learned that we were in the Stone Kingdome, where there was a royal family with legendary tools and armor, and the ones who defeated the Zombie Lord a few month prior.
I was fascinated to hear that my fellow Hero was doing her job well.
For the next few days, I stayed at the village, and improved it, in the day I chopped wood and traded sticks with the head village since he was a Fletcher.
From him I learned that we had a different trading System, and mine was way better then his.
At night I would go hunt for skeletons to get their bones, and keep the rest of monsters outside of the village.
Just like that I became the hero of this village overnight, and with the bones of the skeletons I used bone meal to grow the crops, making me more popular.
A few weeks have passed since then, and I've grown exponentially since I first came here.
My plan was to level up my Trading tab sufficiently to buy myself enchanted Dimond armor.
Unfortunately there wasn't a lot of viligers I could trade and level up my skill, but progress was still made.
Until one day something bad has happened.
"Village Head, Andreea! I didn't expect to see you outside of the village, did something happen?"
"Ah, Hero! No, we just decided to move to a bigger town since we now have some funds to live more comfortably and have a kid. It was all thanks to you, we can't thank you enough!"
That wasn't good, those two were the main source of emeralds I made in this village, if they leave I can't progress anymore, and I don't want to move to a town since I'm not prepared yet, I have to keep them here.
"Is that so? That's a shame, I heard that another Monster Lord is coming and the bigger towns won't be open to new citizens."
Both of them paled when they heard about the Monster Lord.
"T-Then what should we do?"
"Don't worry, I intended to build walls around the village to make it more safer. I'll even build some houses and farms to increase our production. We can live more comfortably afterwards."
The couple looked at each and decided to get back to the village.
I could only smile as their back turned.
