WELCOME TO THE GAME OF LIFE.YOUR GLOBAL NETWORK BRACELET HAS BEEN UPDATED TO SUPPORT THE GAME OF LIFE.ALL YOUR OLDER FILES AND DATA HAVE BEEN LOCKED DOWN.THE BRACELET IS NOW IN SYNC WITH YOUR BODY NANOBOTS. YOU WILL BE GUIDED FUTHER AHEAD BY YOUR SPIRIT GUIDE.
PLEASE CHOOSE SPIRIT GUIDE SEX – MALE FEMALE OTHERS
“Spirit guide?” I wondered aloud. When another table popped up.
SPIRIT GUIDES ARE MASS OF ENERGY THAT HAS BEEN GRANTED CONCIOUSNESS BY GODDESS ATHENA TO HELP THE ADVENTURERS IN THEIR JOURNEY.
Eh? It seems spirit guides are the AI update the crazy duo was talking about. But isn't she a bit too arrogant and narcissistic for her own sake. Naming herself goddess and nonsense. Sighing, I moved ahead. Well let’s see Male? Female? Others? Hmm... Others is out of the question. I don’t want a trap guiding me. Female? Nope I could never understand them. Plus I don’t want another mom besides me. So it is Male. I touched the option showing male.
The screen floating above the HOLO vanished and was replaced by a 1 Foot tall white humanoid. It was humanoid in the vaguest sense. It had no features, just a complete white face. Similarly his whole body was also white.
CHOOSE SPIRIT AVATAR FEATURES.
Below it there were several options for Type of body, body skin color, hairstyle, hair color etc. It was quite similar to character building in VR games. After half an hour of changing combinations and fiddling, I finally decided on my spirits look. It had a lean body with pale white skin. The hair was also white in color. Eyes were bright purple. With a small pointed nose, and a cute mouth his triangular face was completed. It was garbed in system designated whit toga, quite similar to the ancient Romans. Happy with my selection I finally confirmed it. The main reason for going with white hair and pale skin was security. In snow, except white all colors are easily seen. So in future if I have to hide I can’t have my spirits bright color giving me away.
PLEASE CHOOSE A NAME FOR YOUR SPIRIT.
Hmmm…I find naming the most difficult part of character creation. The name should make sense, but at the same time should sound good. Sigh, well let’s go with Janus. Greek God of choices.
“I choose Janus “I said.
CREATING SPIRIT…
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THE SPIRIT AFTER BEING BIRTHED HAS NO PERSONALITY.IT WILL LEARN AND CREATE A PERSONALITY FOR ITSELF FROM ITS SURROUNDING.
“Huh, now that’s something new. So if I want a badass spirit, I will need to act all cool and badass?”
“YES”
“What?!? Who?” I cried. The voice had come from nowhere and broke me from my musings. I looked around, but could find nothing.
“Boss! Check the little creepy man on your hands…”, said Kiki pointing out at my wrist. She was perched besides me, on the Couch’s armrest, while her claw was pointing at my wrist.
I followed her direction, and found a 1 foot tall, spirit floating over my HOLO. Although it was a holographic projection, it looked solid enough to be real.
“Hi! I am Janus” The little thing looked at me, while waving his hand.
“Uh, Hi? “ I stuttered, while still observing the white man. It was exactly like the spirit I had created, except more lifelike. Expressions could be seen flitting across his face. Ranging from happiness to confusion and moving to surprise. A blue table popped up, but in my amazement I had cancelled it. Who knew, it was one of the worst choices I ever made.
“I am Cicero. And this feather ball is Kiki” I introduced myself and Kiki, who was closely observing the projection.
“ Eh…Little thing I am Kiki. Call me big sis from now on, or I will peck you to death!” ordered Kiki, while glaring at the little Janus.
“ Oooh… well as I said before I am Janus. I will be helping you up ahead, and guiding you on your journey!“ He said cheerfully, but in a very childlike manner. And it seems he ignored Kiki. Great, the game has just started and I already have two bombs ready to explode.
“Well, before we go ahead, please choose a skill to be granted to me. Every spirit will start with a skill granted to them”
“Eh, sure” Skills are good. Skills are life. Skills are sacred. So more skills, the better it is. I had already started drooling. OFCOURSE, IN MY THOUGHTS! CAN’T MAKE A BAD IMPRESSION ON A CHILD.
CHOOSE A SKILL TO BE GRANTED
IDENTIFY –A skill, which will allow the spirit to identify objects. As the skill levels up, the spirit will be able to give more detailed information and at the same identify more types of items.
Skill Type- Spirit Skill
Mana – 0
TRACK - The spirit is able to track specific objects and preys. The spirit will track prey using footprints, scent and other markings.AS the skill progresses, the chances of successfully tracking a prey increases.
Skill Type – Spirit Type
Mana – 0
NAVIGATE – The spirit will be able to navigate skillfully. In higher levels, the spirit will be able to navigate using stars and planets.
Skill Type – Spirit Type
Mana – 0
ON REACHING LEVEL 5, SPIRIT WILL BE GRANTED AN ADDITIONAL SKILL.
“OOOhhh…this is great “I exclaimed. All three skills were quite important currently. ‘Identify’ the basic skill which everyone wanted, and knowingly- unknowingly all MCs were granted with. Similarly a ‘Track ‘skill will help me track animals. At the same time, using tracking skills I would be able to avoid other animals and players. And finally “Navigate’ skill was also important in its own right. Navigating in Antarctica was a navigator’s hell. With only snow as far as eyes could see and no landmarks, travelling in Antarctica was akin to a death sentence. Even veteran travelers, while crossing Antarctica would use specialized equipments like GPS, Homing devices and Light house. Light house here is quite similar to light houses used in sea. As half the year Antarctica is under darkness, the structures would act as beacons to guide travelers. Several such towers are already present all over this shitty landmass.
After eternity of thinking and debate, I finally decided to go for navigate. As I will be leaving the city soon, I don’t want to find myself lost here. My plan was to travel to McMurdo City. Previously a large base, now it was the largest city on this country. At the same time it was also a crossroad for other three cities. From there I was going to travel south, towards Aerenas. That city was closest to the runic site where my parents were working.
After finding my parents and ensuring their safety, I would leave for MY WORLD DOMINATION.I know, I know…till now I didn't sound like I cared about my parents. But seriously, they gave birth to me, raised me up, provided nearly everything I wanted, so this is the least I could do for them. You may call it filial duty. Also ensuring their safety would remove a great burden from my heart. I had already tried calling them earlier, but their phone seems to be disconnected. I could only hope, nothing happened to them.
So I went for the skill NAVIGATING.
“Good choice, Master. Navigating is a skill which every traveller needs to have.” He praised me. Then he continued “Now as skills are selected, I will need to give you a brief overview of HOLO and the Game. As you see-“
“Stop. Cut it off. Tell me about it afterwards. I presently have money to earn. Later we will have all the time in the world.” I interrupted him. I felt a bit sorry for interrupting him, but I needed to make the most of this chaos. By now, everybody would have realized that this was no joke. Half of them would be freaking by now. And the clever half would be looking for means of survival. And I will become their savior by selling food, at cheap price. I was thinking about both bartering and selling goods. You never know, when someone will come up with something great.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 rd PERSON POV
In a small two- storey house, at the out skirt of the town of Glacies, a flurry of activity could be seen. A young boy was donning his sweater, followed by his steel armour and another layer of sweater. To top it off he covered himself in a large jacket. The boy was wearing white pants ( AN- Can anybody tell me the proper name for the pants. Used in winter, quite similar to sweatpants ).On his shoulder was perched a large white cockatiel, who was screaming “ Off to the adventure, matey! “ with full force.
The house was locking itself down, as steel shutters rolled and covered the window. Lights went out, shrouding the whole house in darkness. The pipes pumping warm water behind the walls shut down allowing the house to slowly become colder.
Near the boy, stood two large rucksacks. Besides it was a small duffel bag, from which a hammer could be seen protruding outside. If somebody had peeked inside, he would have found a rucksack full of food. Food ranging from breads to meats to noodles, all was stuffed inside unceremoniously. The other rucksack, which was white in colour, was filled with clothes, papers, a small atlas, along with daily necessities. Along with all that not a small amount of bread and meat, alongside few vegetable was stuffed on the top. The small duffel bag, was filled with knives, forks, a hammer, few large bamboo sticks, nails and not a small amount of sewing needles.
The boy was staring outside, looking at the ever present fields of snow, which glimmered under the harsh sunlight. At his right, few miles away stood a huge forest of spruces, firs and snow bamboos. On his left, spread over a small distance, and covered with building stood the city of Glacies, which would cease to exist after a few hours. A small meadow, bearing grasses, flowers and shrubs surrounded the city.
A great number of humans could be seen rushing to and fro inside the city. Despite the chaos and the gloomy atmosphere covering the city, a strange sort of harmony could be seen under it. The ever glowing large screens, in the middle of the city, were now strangely silent, except for a timer which was showing 5 hours to go.
The boy, took a deep breath, from the moment he steps out he would be leaving his past life behind, and walking towards a new adventure. In his heart, despite all his boasts and claims was a question, ‘whether he would live to see a new dawn?’
Finally, a look of determination could be seen on his face. Covering his eyes with goggles, and wearing a cap ( AN- woolen cap ? hat ? ) he stepped out. From that moment onwards the student Cicero died and the adventurer, the survivor Cicero was born.
Moving towards his garage, Cicero climbed on his ATV. Donning his helmet, and securing the bags at his bag, he beckoned his pet to follow him. The cockatiel stopped singing and spread his large wings taking of in the air. A shrill screech reverberated through the cold air, as the bird declared his freedom and his start of the journey.
Laughing the boy switched on his ATV, and drove of towards the city central.
( AN- jeez I really wanted to write ‘drove towards the horizon or something. Would have made a damn good ending. But I wanted to start his adventure soon, so * sigh *)
The ATV, noisily passed over the half frozen roads, arriving at the Central. Looking around Cicero observed, a large number of people, crying, weeping, and fighting. Some people showed their dark sides, trying to rape, steal and murder their fellow humans.Police robots were busy keeping the people in check.
Once again lamenting over human nature, Cicero climbed of the ATV,and took out his bag full of food. Spreading a bed sheet over the ground, he covered it with all sorts of food items. From the other bag, he took out a marker and few sheets of paper. Scribbling over it, he carefully placed them near the food item. On observing one would, find the papers scribbled with prices. One sheet had ‘BREAD – 1 COPPER ‘written over it, while the other had ‘MEAT – 10 COPPER’. Similarly noodles had ‘NOODLES – 5 COPPER ‘marked on it. Among all this a large paper was covered with bold writings. The paper showed ‘CICERO BUSINESS EMPORIUM- DEALS WITH ALL SORTS OF GOODS AND ITEMS. WILL BARTER AND TRADE. NO REFUNDS .FIXED PRICES ‘
Carefully placing the large chart over his ATV, he made himself comfortable, waiting for his first customer.
Cicero
I never imagined that I would be reluctant to leave that old house. It seems you really understand value of something, when you lose it. I had made myself comfortable on the ATV, while the food items were displayed below. For safety reasons I had only kept, 1-2 samples of my goods.
While waiting, I decided to continue my interrupted conversation with Janus. While getting ready to leave, I discovered Janus and Kiki, were like oil and water. Always fighting. I have still yet to discover why they hate each other so much. Meanwhile, Janus learnt a whole new set of abuses and taunts. I haven’t even started talking with Janus properly, and he already had a bad influence on his personality. I wanted an independent but obedient slave spirit, but Kiki’s, nature seems to be contagious. He already had become cheeky and rebellious.
“Hey, Janus. What were you going to explain earlier.” I asked my holo.
“…”
Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel.
“ Janus…Are you in there?” I asked. See, he already was becoming a free spirited cheeky rebellious person. And it seems he discovered my old ( P@#N STASH ) manga collections. Oh boy, he already was addicted to them.
“Sorry for earlier. Please forgive me. See, I am really sorry. I was in a hurry to leave, that’s why I shouted on you. Please I am really sorry.” I begged him. Jeez, this guy sure is stubborn.
“I will allow you to download some of those videos! Now for the gods sake come out! “
Its hardly has been a hour since he came, and I already needed to bribe him. One good thing was, the network access for spirits was restricted. Until the master gave explicit permission to use net, the spirits would not be able to access it. They could only communicate through it. It was like a high profile parental lock. So the poor chap was unable to download his *cough* favorite videos. Many of you, will ask how do I know about his new hobby? The little imp, tried downloading few videos, and fortunately I was alerted regarding it. The videos turned out to be of those types. So the only conclusion I can come up with is, my spirit has become a…
“ REALLY ? “ A white guy, popped out of the Holo, staring at me wide eyes.
“You saw them.” I said accusingly.
“Well, I was bored, and your device was a good place to hang out in. When I found these little password protected videos, saying cartoons. And well, me being bored I visited and ….”
“STOP! FORGET IT! NOW BACK TO TOPIC”
“You really will allow me to download?”
“…* Sigh * Yes “
“ Awesome. Now as I was saying before your device…”
This guy is too clever for his sake. Just born and he already knew how to get his own thing done. From seeing his face, I really doubt that he was feeling sad or heartbroken. DAMN! Fricking spirit.
“So now I will explain to you about your changed Holo.” He continued.” You’re Holo currently has 11 applications in it. Firstly, is your STATUS app. Connected to your nanobots, this app displays your level, strength, progress etc in numerical terms. Coming to next this app is the SKILL app. As the name suggests, this app shows all your learnt skills, along with their progress. The third app is the MARKET app. You can buy and sell all sorts of goods inside the market app. This one is the BANK app. You can make transactions, see your account and ask for a loan from here. This app shows all your contact lists. You can call people who are saved in your contact list. CALLER app is for calling, while the MESSAGING app is for messaging. The FORUM app connects you to the game forum. You can learn, discuss and post information here. Similarly the NEWS app, streams all the latest ongoing events. The GAMETUBE app will allow you to upload or download game related videos and also stream your very own experiences online. This is the app, which will take you to Athena’s website. And finally this is the APP STORE, where you can buy or download various apps for your own purpose. Just remember that you can’t download more than 3 apps per month nor you can cross 250 MB data limit. “He explained slowly, while pointing to various new apps on my desktop.
“ Now coming to your STATUS. Please open the status app “he requested to me. I obediently opened the app and a new table popped up.

“Here if you will observe, there are several values ahead of these terms “he continued his explanations in his usual cheery childlike voice. I zoned out while he was explaining about these terms. This was a basic knowledge among everybody. STR for your strength, DEF for your body defense, AGI for your speed, while DEX for your dexterity.WIS and INT for wisdom and intelligence respectively. He continued his speech for next few minutes, explaining each point in detail.
Along with all this, our stats will be calculated from the activities we do in next six hours along. So next six hours, decide my stats.
“ Do you have any questions ?” He asked, finally ending his monologue.
“Currently, nope. Later on, I can’t say…”
“Well that’s good! Now the payment!” He exclaimed joyfully, while stretching his hands out, like asking something.
“Which payment?” I asked, acting all innocent.
“What? The pay- “he screamed, when he was interrupted.
A man had interrupted him. God bless him! If he is going to buy something, am going to give him a discount. I could only laugh at Janus’s luck. He had a sulking expression on his face, while we observed the newcomer.
The man was nothing special looking. Dressed in layers of sweaters, he looked like the kind grandpas across the street. Besides him, was a hulking male. Despite covered in jacket, his muscles couldn't be hidden. His face couldn't be seen properly, because of the large goggles and the mask. Tagging behind them was a woman. I couldn't find anything about her; she was covered from top to bottom, with no skin visible. Only the long hairs, differentiated her from men.
The old man had coughed to politely bring our attention to him.
I gave him a bright smile, which I doubt he could see because of the mask.
“How may I help you gentlemen’s ?” I enquired them in my best business voice.
“You are selling food? “ the old man hesitatingly asked. It was no surprise. People were treating food like treasure, and here I was selling it in the open. No wonder he was hesitating. Behind him, I could see several people observing here.
“ Yes! As you can see, I had too much to carry. So I decided to sell those to the needy. “I lied through my teeth.
“Really ? “ he looked at me surprised.
“Yes Grandpa. Since you are my first customer, I will even give you a small discount. And you really remind me of my grandfather.” I assured him. When trading, I have learnt that if you attach a relation to somebody, you can actually sell or buy better. Like, calling him Grandpa and comparing him to my grandpa, I was actually building a family relation.
“Oh…you can see me, even when I am covered from head to toe?” he asked, teasingly.
Damn, the guy is clever. Mostly people just follow the flow.
I grinned, and politely replied “ Well, grandpa is grandpa. And since I have never seen him, he could be like anyone. So would you like to buy something Grandpa? “
“Ha-ha “he and the man besides him, started laughing, when the women shoved them aside.
“ If I allow them, they will spend the whole day gossiping…” she complained, while looking at me.
“It’s not gossiping dear, its building relations. Right boy ?”the grandpa, countered.
“And now my dear grandson, since we are grandpa and grandson, shouldn't you actually gift us food instead of selling. After all I am your family, and there should be no business among family. “
Fuck this old man. Using my own method on me. Fucker’s sake. Behind me , Janus was rolling on the floor laughing.
“ Sure grandpa, but shouldn't you gift your grandson some pocket money. “ Take that, old man.
“…” The grandpa stopped laughing. Hearing this, his two companions chuckled.
“Eh…well how much for the 15 packs of bread, and 6 noodles.” He asked nonchalantly as if nothing had happened.
“ 45 copper coins. As for the discount, I will be taking it as pocket money, Grandpa.” I cheerfully replied.
“…Sigh…Here boy “ He transferred 45 coppers from his HOLO. I was quite surprised. I had expected some more banter and some more arguing. Well, if he doesn't want to, i can’t stop him or anything.
After they left, several more people came, and traded. One guy gifted me a well crafted knife, which I had no idea from where he got. Others traded for maps, information, and medicines. In few cases I exchanged food with food. Like bread for spices, pickles etc.
In between some muscle head did came, and tried to force me on surrendering everything. I just had to shout a little, when the police robots, which were roaming in the surrounding, came there and arrested them. After that all the muscle heads and criminals stopped troubling. In few cases, somebody would over estimate themselves and try to secretly steal from my bag. Poor guys would only get a face full of scratches. Kiki after returning had taken over the security duty. When somebody would try their luck, she would screech alerting everybody and at the same time follow them while pecking and clawing. Mind it, despite her cute looks; she is a devil when angry. Although I believe she was having more fun than being angry.
In 3 hours I had already sold all my goods and earned a hefty amount. My 10 silvers had risen to 45 silvers. I got only 22 silvers from the food. Rest were small items like, my shin guards for protection, a sharp antique blade which I couldn't handle properly, Maps, Information etc.
In short ‘a good day.’
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------3 POV
A young man, stretched himself and tried to loosen his muscle. Standing on the pavement on Central, he did some stretching and flexing, until he felt it was good enough. Besides him stood an ATV, on which a white cockatiel was perched. Under him, a large bed sheet was spread, on which few sheets of paper could be seen. The man got down from the ATV, and carefully packed everything, securing it inside his rucksack. He had already sold the other rucksack and duffel bag a few minutes back. This had increased his savings to a whooping 47 silvers. The amount didn't sound much, but earning this much on the first day was a great feat.
His weapons were carefully secured on either himself or in his bags. The hammer was hanging from a rope which he had used like a belt. Several small knives, forks and tools like screwdrivers could be seen hanging on it. A large stick, with several nails and a knife on one end was hanging from his back. While waiting for customers, he had worked on a broom stick, to create something like a mace and spear mix.
After carefully checking that nothing was left, he got up on his ATV, and left the Central, steadily driving towards the west, where McMurdo city was located. After travelling for an hour or so, he had reached the edges of the great forest. The forest actually had no name, or if it had no one knew. The forest was planted 15 years ago to create a habitat for the flora and fauna. Grey wolves, White wolves, Foxes, Reindeer's, Tigers and bears occupied the forest. White wolves and Silver wolves were variant species of the Grey wolves. The tigers were a modified hybrid of Himalayan and Siberian Tigers. Bears were actually polar bears, but they preferred to stay in the snowy plains instead of the forest. But sometimes, they do wander inside.
The boy stopped his ATV. He couldn't take the ATV inside, for the fear of attracting the wild beats. The ATV made too much noise. The boy walked towards alone pine tree. The tree was neither in the forest nor in the Meadows, but on the edges of both.
The day had been very tiring. Only one hour was left before the disaster struck, and he wanted to be as far as he could. Relaxing himself under the tree, he prepared himself mentally, before entering the forest. The forest was an out of bond place for him, but now he would need to cross across it to reach his goal. He would have loved to take the direct road to McMurdo, but the road passed through long snowy empty fields, until it reached the mountains. If he was chased, he wouldn't be able to hide or escape, on those fields. His only chance was trying to reach the mountains through the forest. The trees and the animals, would protect him to some extent.
Suddenly the boys’ stomach started grumbling. Opening his pack, he took out few slices of bread.
Feeding few to the white bird perched on his shoulders, he ate the rest dry. Taking out a small Thermos, he took a few sips of the hot tea inside. An Old women had given him this thermos for a few pieces of sausages. Feeling the warmth, trickle down his throat, he gave a sigh of comfort.
Only half an hour was now left, before the calamity occurs. Taking out a few carrots, he filled his pocket with them. He decided to munch them, as he crossed the forest. His bird had already left for somewhere, But he knew, she would find him again. As he got up, and shouldered his rucksack, a cute head popped out of a small shrub nearby.
Cicero POV
Shouldering the heavy, rucksack I prepared myself for the next phase of my journey. Actually the first phase. When out of nowhere, I heard some scratching sound coming. I immediately went on alert. Damn, I haven’t even left the city, and now I will need to fight? Fucking fate!
Suddenly a cute head popped out of the shrubs. It was a rabbit! OR hare? I never could get them right. Damn, I was scared shit of my pants. I was expecting a wolf or a bear, and was already prepared to run.
Kneeling, I carefully observed the rabbit or hare. Best let’s go with bunny. It was a cute white little thing. I am not a cute thing lover or something, but hell bunnies are cute! It was pure white. Except two red eyes, which were carefully watching me? The little guy was slightly longer than 1 feet.
Kneeling I tried to call him. You know the usual weird noises to call the animals. The bunny simple kept on looking at me. When I got an idea. Taking out a small carrot, I offered it to him. Seeing the carrot, his whiskers shook. He moved a bit towards me. Seeing I had no bad intentions, it hopped towards me, and started eating the carrot which I had by now kept on the ground.
Suddenly another two bunnies came out of the shrubbery. Looking at me with their pitiful eyes, I finally also gave them some carrots. I was petting the first bunny, when more 4 rabbits came hopping towards me. By now, the previous rabbits had also finished the offered carrots, and all of them were looking at me expectantly. I opened my hands, and showed them that I had no more carrots. Of course few were still in my bag. Carefully, getting up I walked towards the forest.
I could hear a lot of racket following me. I looked back, and the 8 rabbits were now accompanied by more of their brethren. More were coming from the surrounding shrubbery. The good thing, they were cute and harmless. The bad thing, all of them were looking at me expectantly. They were hopping towards me, covering a meter each time.
They would easily reach me in few more hops.
What the hell?!? I ran.
The bunnies followed.
I ran harder, tripping on tree roots and rocks.
The rabbits followed me harder, gaining on me with my each trip.
“ MOMMY…SAVE ME!!”
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd POV
The forest near Glacies city was seeing something abnormal that day. A man in full white clothing and white rucksack was screaming. Screaming like a women in labor. Screaming like a man shot. Screaming like dogs were behind him. Well not dogs, but hoards of cute white bunnies were. The boy was running across, the littered forest ground. His hands were shoving apart all the branches, which came to greet him. The boy was screaming and calling his mom, his dad, Gods to whom he had never prayed, and his ancestors while cursing the cute little bunnies. But the bunnies forgave him and diligently followed him. The man started throwing vegetables and fruits, which he had collected with so difficulty.
The bunnies stopped.
They ate the fruit.
And once again they ran behind the dear boy in white.
While animals, which claimed to be the hunters and the kings of the forest could only look, and pray to gods that , never should bunnies follow them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From that day onwards, a legend was passed by Glacies City Survivors. The day when howling, screaming, and cursing could be heard across all the forest, that day a hoards of bunnies would travel across the forest destroying everything in its path. The locals believe that these cries were from the departed soul of the bunnies who had been killed by humans.
ATV as in single person, scooter like ATV
