“..and thank you for watching!” I say to the twenty people watching my stream

'Good stream'

'Looking forward to the next one'

'You’re gonna get big soon'

The comments make me smile and I say one last goodbye before ending the thing. I take my VR headset off and set it on my lap. I glance up at my ceiling and sigh.

“Maybe I should start over..” I lean forward and rub my forehead while shaking my head “Why the hell am I still keeping that fucking cringe username?” I ask myself

The username or my streaming alt is the faceless male streamer by the name of XxXPussySlayerFr0mH3llXxX

I wasn’t exactly mature in mind when I came up with it and I thought I was the shit, like any kid with a stupid username like that. Once I've actually started over with the streaming thing with another name but forgot the password and couldn’t recover it in time and I’m stuck with this account.

I rather enjoy the faceless streaming personally, I’m not an attractive guy and I’m a bit overweight as well and I have no idea how to do the VTuber thing as much I'd love to do that. I don’t think anybody wants to see a chubby guy playing Highlander.

I chuckle and look at the screen of my computer. I paid good money for this pc and the triple screens. I jumped on the bandwagon of playing the hottest game on the market to limited success.

See recently this new MMO came out, well, VRMMORPG, it’s a mouthful I know. It’s called Highlander and it was developed by this new studio in Asia. It was a weird collab between this Korean and Japanese studio.

And well they made the next big hit of the world really, almost no bugs at launch which is a fucking wonder for games in this age and the servers can hold up to two hundred thousand people at once in one server, some can even hold more. The game has a peak of one hundred million players and it’s still increasing which is astonishing for a game like this.

It’s stupidly accessible to almost any platform. I bought a pc for this because of the VR aspect. It’s completely new tech and it gets the views, not all of them sadly.

It’s basically SAO at this point, tech wise at least. Highlander is written better that's for sure.

On my screen was my in game character, I’ve already sunk about a thousand hours into this thing like a normal person and don’t regret a thing or second of it. I don’t have anything else going for me and streaming has always been a dream of mine.

I think back at the comments I got, those few comments really do motivate you. Give you some good feelings.

I rub my stomach slightly, maybe I should start losing weight or at least try. This was one of my thirteen hour streams. I’ve done it a lot and I mean a lot.

But I do actually want to function within society. And look good you know.

I raise the headset to look at it. It isn’t a full-blown helmet or headset, but I like to call it one, more like a mask of sorts. You need to have your ears, eyes and mouth pressed against it. There’s a little sensor that you put at the back of your head, it’s like a separate piece. Mine is still on right now.

I put on the headset and get back into the game.

It’s in third person mode right now and I’m looking at my sexy in game avatar. The game actually offers multiple POVs, you can even go second person which is kind of cool.

I play a Caster type character, Saint Elf Caster specifically, they get racial bonuses to mana and such.

There’s also like seven different types of variants for each race. Supposedly Highlander was in development for about ten years and that the writing has been in the works for twenty years. There’s a crazy amount of love put into it and it really shows.

It’s mind blowing really.

I zoom in to look at my character. I took...let’s just say creative liberties to make her, I wouldn’t call her my dream girl, I don’t have that kind of para-social relationship to my created characters. At least not for all of them.

Well…

I mean I do watch a lot of English VTubers and some of them are just a delight to watch and make me feel good.

I sigh once more.

My life’s a mess. I’m a NEET basically and a still unsuccessful streamer.

I don’t want to give up, but…I’ve had those thoughts before. Just hang myself or jump in front of a truck.

“Gamers…the most oppressed minority of all.” I mumble with a smile and sniffle

Sometimes I hate it, my life not the game. Funny I know.

I open up my inventory where my character appears on a little round stand slowly spinning around showing her off. I browse through my items in my inventory.

Fuck I’ve grinded a lot for my stuff. I’m level 367 right, my health is like that of a Elden Ring 3 boss and my mana is basically infinite with all my rings that recharge and boost it.

It’s funny, in other games when you reach a high level you get bored because everything gets so easy, but not with Highlander. You just keep finding stronger and stronger enemies and there’s always a new expansion ready when the game starts slightly dropping in numbers. It's going to be around for a long long time I know it.

I open up a map and look at the various areas, I’ve been to most, but I may as well check back at my home. The players are able to get homes and customize them just as much as their characters which is awesome.

I click the Teleport command and my menu closes.

My character takes out a small crystal and begins muttering actual Elvish that Tolkien wrote. That legal battle took a long time, but the studio paid a very good amount to the Tolkien Estate to have it in the game.

My character vanishes and the screen goes black as usual.

I feel a sudden pain in my chest and let go of the game’s controls in my hands and grip my chest.

I can’t breathe…

What’s happening?

I try and stand from my chair, but fall over, the headset won’t come off either.

I continue to struggle to get free, but I’m too weak.

My arms and legs are feeling more numb.

Why…

I breathe a few more times before I stop.

It feels like I feel asleep.

WAKE UP

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

In the nothingness that’s all I suddenly see.

Wake up. It's like staring at a loading screen.

The text fades away and sound starts appearing.

Wheels?

Hooves?

My eyes are still shut but they’re slowly opening. My body still feels numb, more numb than before, but as I glance up and move my head I see a green skinned man.

He catches my gaze and nods.

“Hey, you. Trying to cross the border right?” he asks “Walked right into that Imperial ambush, same as us and that thief over there.” He motions beside him

I glance to my side but my vision fades and everything is black again.

I just had an odd sense of déjà vu in my semi consciousness.

It doesn’t take long before I start to feel something, my eyelids slowly open and I see stone floors moving, then I hear the opening of something. Sounds like a cage really.

I’m suddenly thrown forward and I bounce a few times before I stop.

It’s cold. And I mean fucking cold.

“Area Spell, Silence.” I hear the guard say “Illusion Spell, Mirror” I hear the other guard say

I feel heavy..

What the fuck happened?

I slowly extend one of my hands and then rub my eyes with the other one. I blink a few times before everything is clear.

I glance at my hand and it’s…thin..and..almost glowing..?

I look at my other hand and arm and it’s the same thing.

What the hell?

“Hey! What the hell is this!” I yell, but grab my throat

That wasn’t my voice! Why was it so high pitched and so feminine?

I look down at myself.

Oh my god I have boobs…

And I’m wearing some crappy rags with a belt tied around at my waist. I’m shaking, this feels too real.

I reached down and basically rip the belt away from my rags and check my crotch.

I..I’ve lost my dick…

I scream out in shock, but no one outside reacts to me. I stumble forward and grab at the bars of the cell and start shouting.

“Let me the fuck out! Hey! Whoever is out there! Let me the fuck out now!” I yell

But nothing.

I slide down the bars and fall back onto my back and knock my head.

“Ow..” my feminine voice says

I do spot something in the corner of my vision, It’s a little square. I wave my arm at it but nothing. I do it a few times before a prompt appears in front of me.

VOICE COMMAND ACTIVATION

(Shake for no & Nod for yes)

I nod slowly and the prompt disappears from my view.

“Uhh..Inventory?” I say unsurely

Suddenly a black box appears in front of me. There I see a few options, but they’re blurred out for another prompt. Or well, multiple prompts. Everything does look mostly familiar.

SPAWN VOICE COMMAND GUIDE?

I nod and in the upper left corner of my vision a little message appears

Item added to inventory

I look at the other prompt.

DISPLAY STATISTICS?

I nod again, but faster than before.

The inventory suddenly closes and three bars show up in front of me. Red, Blue, Green.

It’s..It’s like Highlander.

The three bars move away from the center of vision to the upper left. A few other things appear as well.

Ynnessa Level 1

Health: 50/50

Mana: 200/200

Stamina: 45/45

That’s what it all said. Jesus, you’ve got to be fucking with me right? You’re not telling me I’ve been isekaid into a fucking prison right?!

“Fuck!” I shout once more

I grab my face and..just cry. That’s all I can do right now. Cry.

I’m scared.

No, fuck that, I’m fucking terrified of what the fuck is happening!

You can’t be fucking telling me that I’ve been fucking Isekaid into the very fucking game I was playing right?! RIGHT!?

“I don’t…I don’t want this…” I say weakly

I'm still kind of numb, my body that is. It hasn’t completely set in..

I crawl towards the corner and just hold myself for a little while.

I don’t know where I am or how I got here, but I can guess.

I died, I think.

And now I’m in a game, but it’s real.

Fuck…

I can’t go to sleep either.

Wait..

“Inventory.” I say

The windowed black screen appears again and I see my options. Weapons, Armor, Clothes, Scrolls, Potion, Ingredients, Herbs. I have none of those besides clothing, I continue to look around. There’s a different section for magic I notice.

“Magic.” I say

The screen changes and it shows me my magic menu. I’ve got known spells only. It’s like the game, unless you don’t know three or more of a certain type of spell it’s all sorted into known spells.

I try reaching out to touch the section and it works. All my know spells appear. It’s not a bad selection…no wait it’s the starting spells for…Saint Elves…

That’s would mean…

I reach up to my ears and feel the different shape and new length. Right…I’m a woman now and an Elf. Great.

I slap my face slightly and go back to the screen. The spells I know is Calm, Firebolt, Heal and a basic summon spell, Skeleton.

It’s basically Highlander. There’s no real class system in the game, you just get a set of spells or minor abilities where you branch out from depending on the template you choose, you could even go custom from the start. I was mainly an offensive build with huge DMG magic output in my arsenal. I did make big explosions in my runs in dungeons and raids.

I reach to touch Calm and a little message shows up asking if I want the description. I nod at that.

CALM

Spell Type: Aura

Cost: 10 Mana

Duration: 1 minute per 10 mana

Description: Once cast upon a target, calm brings an overwhelming serenity to the target where the mind clears and any current Offensive Aura spells are nullified for the duration of the spell.

Simple, but a really useful fucking spell. I wonder..

“Close.”

The inventory disappears from my view.

“Aura Spell, Calm.” I say, having my palms face me

A pleasant greenish glow emanates from my palms and it moves towards me. I close my eyes and feel the effect of the spell. This..this was certainly new to me.

The spell did exactly what it said it would do to my surprise, I thought it would backfire honestly. But I felt calm.

I wiped my face of the streaming tears and I could feel sensation coming back into my body. With the help of the wall I finally stood and looked around the room. There was a small bed, a bucket and that was it..oh..and a drain…or something like it at least. This is disgusting....

Great..I don’t remember a prison in the game…well, I never was in a prison in Highlander.

Usually convicted murderhobos went there along with player thieves and active npcs. Those led to some very interesting events.

“My back kinda hurts..” I say as I stretch

Wait, why would it? I've never had back problems before...

I look down and…well…

I’ve got some really big breasts. I slowly grab them with my hands and wow.

I’m not talking like normal big boobs, I’m talking Shera L. Greenwood sized Elven boobs, but definitely a little bigger.

I let go of them and move my chest.

My god, actual jiggle physics..

I reach back up and give them a good grip. Holy shit this kind of feels nice. Never before would I say that I'm fondling my own boobs...

Wait..

I move my fingers to my nipples and ever so lightly poke them.

I audibly moan and quickly let go.

Alright….sensitive…I’m…not sure how much I like that…

I take a deep breath and walk to the bed and put my leg on it

I’ve got some thick thighs as well..and my calves aren’t half bad, feet a little small now that I look at it.

I glance to my rear and I can see that I have a big ass as well

Wait does tha-

Oh my god I’ve been reincarnated as my Highlander character.

I rub my face, before I notice my hair, it’s long and blonde, a bit messy, but it has that naturally well kept feel and look to it from my touch. I reach up to my face again and lightly run my finger across it.

It’s smooth and kind to the touch. Maybe that’s what all Saint Elves are like, or just elves in general.

So, I’ve been turned from your average gamer weeb to a thick, big titty sexy elf girl. Who writes this stuff?

Wow.

I partially brought this on myself I think, by making a sexy character like that.

Highlander had a more in-depth character customization than Phantasy Star. It also had the option to save during the process. I spent about four hours trying to make my character Ynnessa.

Ynnessa..

I glance up to my left and see the bars, level and…name…

That’s my character’s name.

I say a silent prayer to myself thanking whatever dick of a god or goddess that reincarnated me didn’t use my streaming handle that I used in this game as well.

“Thank you thank you..” I say

I let my hands fall to my side and just stare around. I don’t know what to do now that I’m here.

I walk back up to the bars. I grab them again, but then I try to reach out but something is stopping me, invisible wall is what comes to mind before I remember the spell that the guards said, there was probably an enchantment on the bars as well now that I think about it. I look over to the other cell across mine and I just see an empty cell.

I get it.

Cover up the view from every cell so people don’t talk to each other. I guess the guards or the Warden here aren’t idiots. I'll take note of that.

I wonder..

“Location.”

A text pops up.

UNKNOWN

Great..I guess I’ve got to explore the place if they ever let me out of this cell. Either overhear some info, find a map or get a look outside.

Guess I’ve got nothing better to do, wow that calm spell is really working, I'm so nonchalant about this.

I walk back to my bed and sit down. The sheet and covers aren’t horrible. No bugs which is nice. The blanket is…decent. The pillow is somewhat comfortable.

Oh, before I forget. I grab my belt from the ground and tie it around my waist like it was before. The big boobs are nice, but having them flail left and right doesn’t really help. I guess some of the physics from the game are now real. This might explain my low stamina...

I get into the bed and cover myself. I cast Calm on myself again and just notice that my magic regenerates at a decent pace. But I’ve got to watch that health and stamina.

I get comfortable in the bed and close my eyes. I’m tired. I kinda hope this is a dream, but if it isn’t…

Well..

When I wake up back here I’ll know if this is a dream or not…
