Void opened his eyes and was standing by a fountain. Every few moments, there would be flashes of light and players would emerge from them. All of the players looked great, every girl looked like a super model and every boy looked like a movie star. Some had weird skin tones, such as a purple shade of skin, and some even had horns. However they all looked incredible despite their different features. This was no doubt because of the customisation system. No one would pass up the chance to look better if they had the choice.
Welcome to Hyka
Void scanned the area and was in awe. It looked extremely real, every single feature had great detail. It took him a moment to get used to everything.
The fountain was located at the center of a crossroad and there were medieval style shophouses at every turn. There were some people selling potions and some selling weapons. Though, no one would be able to afford such things currently.
Void decided to check his status first and called out "Open Status."

Every race has a different starting stat allocation based on their supposed capabilities.
Humans are known to be the most versatile race, having a base stat of 10 for every stat.
Elves are known to be agile creatures of high magical ability with lower physical ability to compensate. Players set on being mages would usually choose to be elves.
Dwarves are known to be great crafters, but due to their short statures, their mobility were affected. Also, they have lowered affinity with magic.
Beastmen have high agility and heightened senses, allowing them to see further, hear louder, taste better and smell greater.
Dog beastmen have high physical abilities but have lower intelligence. Cat beastmen have high wisdom and intelligence but have lower strength. Wolf beatsmen were similar to beastmen, except they worked better in groups.
Angels have high magical ability and agility. Also, they have increased affinity with light magic. Players aiming to be priests usually chose this class. Although the angels in the game are wingless, the producers told of possibilities to unlock their wings through special quests. This made many choose the angel race for the sole purpose of unlocking the wings to gain fame.
Demons are known for both their high physical and magical ability and they also have higher affinity with dark and fire magic.
These would be what the status screens of the other races look like.

You would think that demons are very overpowered and are popular. However, majority have realised the disadvantages of being a demon in the long term.
Who would be stronger, a level 50 human Warrior or a level 50 demon Warrior? The answer would be the human Warrior. Demons have an extra 5 points in intelligence that they cannot change. It might seem very little, but in a close battle, the 5 points will make a difference. Also, demons are weak to light magic that most races can learn and animals hated demons. Their overall disadvantages outweigh their advantages.

Void had 10 stat points to allocate but he decide to allocate them after he had a solid plan.
"Open Inventory."
A screen popped up and listed on it were 50 copper, 20 pieces of bread and a canteen of water. There didn't seem to be a weapon. Void didn't know about the currency in this world, but he was sure that 50 copper would not get him a decent weapon. He decided to deal with that later.
Void had decided he would not be kind while playing, but he hasn't really thought things through yet...
'Now, how will I do that...? I got it! I will be a demon lord! The meanest of the mean!'
The producers boasted of endless possibilities in the game, so Void assumed that it should be possible. Hahaha! Void currently had a goal but no idea how to achieve it.
'Research! I need to research about demon lords! To the library!'
He starts walking confidently down a random path.
He stops...
He walks to the closest non-player looking person and asks for directions.
He then turns around 180° and starts walking towards the library.

Dylan hadn't noticed, but many players had been watching his inner monologue.
They had seen him look around in stupified awe and then his expression changed to one of deep concern, before completely changing into determination. They had also seen him laughing in satisfaction and walking off confidently before realising he did not know where he was going and turning around after knowing the proper directions.
They all thought that they had just witnessed true stupidity.
