Nowadays, companies complete with each others to create the ultimate game that will last for century's. Regardless of their completion they all use the same pod for their game. This pod allow players to enjoy the games without needing to eat or use the bathroom.

What makes this games different from the other reality games is that there is only one race. Human. And most important of all, all skills and magic can only be learn through scrolls and books. Which is extremely rare. [[Once a skills or spells has been learn the scrolls or books will disappear. This is to prevent players from having the same skills/spells.]]
In fact, to make this games as reality as possible the CEO declared that there won't be such things as [[[statute]]]. At first, players has a hard time getting stronger because this game is different from the games that they play before.
After one month of "New Era" release, players soon understand one important points. Unlike other virtual reality games, players can actually create their own skills. This means that they has the potential to not only wield the sword, but also use magic.

TriVirtual Co. Headquarters
Seven years pass since New Era release. The years is now 2063.
The CEO's room is shaped in a large rectangle. If anyone were to walk in they would notice two sofas facing each other with a small table in the middle. To the left about a few feets away stood the CEO's desk. To the right of the two sofas is a caupluse.
A teenager can be seen sitting behind the CEO's desk. He is about 17 years old with slightly short sliver hair and black eye. He was wearing a. . . . . . a uniform? Of course it would be normal for a 17 years old boy to wear a uniform.
If any girls were to see him they would wish for time to stop because he was just like their prince in shinning armor.
Since he was so well like by the girls, you might think that he was hated by the guys.
Oh, how wrong you are. Just like the girls, he was the role model of every boys.
Talent. Handsome. Rich.
Who wouldn't want to be friends the heir of TriVirtual Co?
* Creak
Hearing the sound of the door opening the boy turn his head to look at the person entering the room.
Boy: ". . . . . ."
???: "Oh. So you're here already. Didn't expect to see you so soon."
The man seems to be in his late 70s. He has sliver hair, but has a well built body. He was wearing a suit and seems worn out. Slowly he make his way to the sofa and sit down.
And yes he was the CEO of TriVirtual Co. Kauai Slivermore
Boy: "I heard the news."
Kauai: "I see. . . . ."
Silence fill the air.
Kauai: "Listen Katio. As new game came out people will flock to that game. New Era has been release for seven years now and it's time to let it go."
Still Katio was deep in thought to even hear his grandpa.
Kauai: "Hm. . . . Fate of Conqueror is really popular now day. Maybe you shall give it a try?"
* *Sigh* That boy is thinking to hard. Maybe I shouldn't has support him in the first place.* *
Seeming like Katio finally gather his thoughts together, he look up for the first time with a smile in his face.
Katio: "You know what Gramps? I think you're right. It's time I must let it go."
Kauai: "Now that's my boy. It's important to understand that New Era won't last long with all of this completion."

Relaxing in his chair Katio still has a smile in his face which is quite unusual. Usually Katio is a person who don't smile in front of other.
Yes this smile is the same smile as when he was 5 years old. It was at that time Katio declared to his parents a shocking goal in life. One where only his grandpa support him till now.
Katio: "I believe the time has come to reveal the meaning behind New Era."
Kauai: "WHAT? What do you mean?"
Katio: "New Era isn't as simple as you thought, Gramps. I did say that New Era will last for century to come. And of course I got something to back me up too."
Kauai: "Katio, what are you planning?"
Katio: "Nothing Gramps. I just thought that the world is truly a vast place."
Kauai: *Sigh* "Ok Katio, I give up. Now tell me what you are going to do."
Katio: " I planning to open the door to the other dimensiosn."
Kauai: "WHAT? DIMENSIONS?"
Seeing Kauai shock expression, Katio decide to explain.
Katio: "When New Era was being made I was determine to make New Era a game that will shock the world. Therefore, it has to be something new. Something that the whole world has never see before. Something that will capture players attention. While I was thinking of all the theme that other virtual reality games has. I realized something. Why so people play virtual reality games? What do they seek? Is it adventure? A campion? To release boredom? Or perhaps to escape reality?"
Kauai: ". . . . . ."
Katio: "It was at that moment did I realize that I want New Era to be unique. A game that will allow players to travel through different dimension. To allow them to enjoy different world while playing one game. Therefore New Era was create with many different world and dimension."
Kauai was speechless because this is something that he has no knowledge of.
Truth be told Kauai wasn't the true creator of New Era. In fact New Era was developed by his grandson, Katio Silvermore. In addition, Kauai still help Katio from time to time when he needed help with creating New Era. Before New Era was introduced Katio was able to persuade Kauai into become the CEO. Now you might be wondering how Katio was able to create New Era just a few years when it actually take other people more than 20 years. Well the answers is quite simple. Katio's grandpa from both his parents side are both famous people who has create countless of popular games before. Therefore, Katio just need to hear their advice and sometime has them help out.
Kauai: "Then what's the key to trigger the other dimensions/worlds?"
Katio: "Well in order to encounter or even know about the many worlds and dimensions out there. One has to be friends the demon king and gain his trust by dying while protecting him. After that he will give a quest which leads to another dimensions."
Kauai: "Well do you expect people to die for the demon king? No wonder no one has encounter the other dimensions. Hm......Now that you mention it, is there another way beside beside the demon king?"
Katio: "Of course! But no one would be stupid enough to try it out."
Kauai: "Oh? Now I curious."
Katio: "The other way is to die a consecutive death of 50 times every time you login in. Unless you are the enemy of someone powerful you won't die 50 times in a row. Furthermore, this way leads to a different dimensions then the one with the demon lord."
Kauai: "Interesting. Say shall we release the news?"
Katio: "I did say that it's time. So it's fine."
With the shocking news Kauai made his way out of the rooms.
Slowly Katio made his way to the window. Staring into space he mutter.
Katio: "Although both ways has its own dimensions it would be wise to save the demon king, after all that is the path of gods."
