The dream of emeralds, the virtual reality that came out the first January of the year 2055. The MMORPG that totally revolutionize the world of gaming.
Ever since the creation of World of Warage from Blizzord, no others game succeeded to dethrone this game. Aian, Clan wars 2, Terran, Blade and Qi, all those popular games couldn’t reach every extension of World of Warage that came out from Blizzord.
After the extension of Legius, Blizzord once again decided to join the virtual reality development, Logic-tech and with them, created the virtual reality game called the dream of emeralds.
The game exploded the market and was played inside every country. Few years later, others virtual reality games also had been released but none of them could surpass the dream of emeralds.
Tonight, Blizzord released the patch 10.0.1 of the game which increased the maximum level by 200 instead of 100 and new continents, monsters, races, contents, and a new raid, the tower of Yllidan, the first raid of the game.
Tons of players were awaiting this patch and were all farming their own materials, equipment, jobs, money and every necessary item needed before the leveling and learning information necessary to defeat every boss of the raid.
And of course, top players were also preparing for it. Ash Belvan was one of them.
Ash Belvan was a 20-year-old, waiter in a small restaurant near his neighborhood. His family was rich, but since he was a problem child, none of his family helped him and he ended living alone in a four pieces’ apartment.
Since his childhood, the generation he knows always played gamed. Even his parents and grandparents were playing game and were former streamers who became famous with time. Thus, he was also passionate of games like his family.
Finishing his work late, he was really in bad mood.
Normally, today he asked for a day-off, but since even his superiors were playing the dream of emeralds, he ended up working overtime and left the restaurant at half past eleven.
Waiting inside the bus for his stop, he was writing on Whutsapp to his guild mates, complaining about his bad day.
Ash: My superiors added me works and left me alone while preparing for the patch… I ended up working for them for free and I’m missing so much levels today! I’m so mad!
Kenny: Lol.
John: I also had a lot of meetings tomorrow...I played for only two hours at least. QQ
Eliza: You too?! My boss even added a monthly bonus to my salary so I accepted but you got nothing… R.I.P lol.
Jorge: That’s why you didn’t log in earlier tonight! I was waiting for you dude! Tell me when you’re online.
A lot of texts was appearing one by one from his guild mates. It was an active guild that Ash joined since he started the game and was quite good with them. They even met several times in real life to celebrate special occasion. It was a place where Ash could really feel like himself.
He launched his playlist and put his phone back in his pocket, noticing that it was his stop, he left the bus and headed back home.
Once he entered inside his apartment, he decided to eat something before playing. He didn’t eat anything until lunch so he was quite hungry. He prepared the rice and started cooking.
The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
It was already 23:55 when he finished eating. Since he had work overtime today, he had three days-off and was going to enjoy them. He quickly set his virtual reality machine and log inside the game.
He sat on the virtual reality machine and put the helmet. The machine started processing and several messages appeared on the command system board.
23:59:00 Initializing…Connected! Account: Ash Belvan. 23:59:05 Updating for the new patch, please wait a moment... 00:00:00 Error! A problem had occured. Restarting the program... 00:00:05 Error! A problem had occured. Automatically connecting to the game...
Ash was at a loss for words. He played yesterday without problem. His guild mates also installed the patch without problem and played the game while he was still working. He decided to report the problem to the support client later, once he entered in the game since restarting the machine won’t really be useful because even after restarting the program, the system still didn’t work.
After few minutes of waiting, his body started to shine and he suddenly appear in a bright place. In front of him, a sculpture made in stone that he knows very well.
Ash lift his head and look at the 2-meter-tall statue. It was the statue of Master Zek, a legendary character in the dream of emerald. Recognizing the statue, he looks around and noticed that he was at the beginner place!
He panicked and quickly touch a small icon on the border of his vision, his status, inventory and equipment appeared in front of him.
Name: Ash Race: Human Class: Ninja Jobs: None Level: 1
Health: 100 Mana: 0 Qi: 0 Chakra: 200 Strength: 9 Agility: 15 Vitality: 7 Wisdom: 4 Intelligence: 6 Endurance: 3 Luck: 13
Ash was shocked! All his stats, levels and equipment had disappeared! He was only a beginner level 1 Only his character remained. He searches the support client but strangely didn’t find the icon. The icon for leaving the game was also gone and his friend list was blank.
What the f*ck is happening…?
Ash couldn’t accept the fact that he suddenly lost everything, he couldn’t send a support ticket and on the top of that he couldn’t even log off! ‘Is this the so-called death game event like novels stories?’ Ash thought. He couldn’t understand what was happening and why it was happening to him from all of the people on Earth?!
Dazzling in front of the statue, a women voice resounded behind him.
“You are the newcomer that want to become a ninja right?”
Ash turned his head and a beautiful girl appeared in his view. She had long dark brown hair attached to a ponytail and dark green eyes with charming pink lips. Her beautiful pink red kimono with black bands was attracting the views of the commoners who stopped after watching her attire.
Dumbfounded by her beauty, Ash couldn’t help but gulped. He recognized that women. She was Akali, the teacher of the ninja class which learn you all the basics of how to play a ninja back in the tutorial of the dream of the emerald!
Did she just say newcomer? Crap! Don’t tell me I need to really start again from scratch?
Noticing that Ash was looking at her with shocking eyes and was remain silent, she continued.
“Follow me, I will explain you the academy’s rules on the way, but we need to reach the Ninja’s village first.”
Without wasting any time, she walked towards the exit of the beginners' town.
It can’t be helped… I hope they will fix the problem fast…
Ash sighed and with an ugly face followed the women who’s back was already far away.
