Feducia POV:
Well, I don’t know how to react to this situation. It's quite rare for me to say that, since I'm that smart. Well, on the surface, it just seems like I need to start over in Royal Road. Yeah, I’m pissed that I have to start over from level 1 but besides that, it shouldn’t be too bad? Right?
Well actually, it was horrible. For starters, I had reduced stats, so instead of having starter stats, 10's, for Vitality, Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Luck, I had 5’s for them. Basically my stats were cut in half at level one. Since I would only get about 5 stat points per level up, I would be at level 6 before having the stats of a level 1 newbie.

I also had an extra quest that was pretty much unsolvable. Now out of the 3 quest slots that I could have, 1 of the slots was filled.
Then I realized that high Infamy is terrible. Before, I had about 200 or so Infamy so I didn’t really feel the effects of having a high Infamy, but now, I can honestly say, having a high Infamy is like shooting yourself in the leg.
What makes it even worse is that I’m level 1. If I was a higher level, I could have PKed other players and taken advantage of already having a high Infamy. But now, it’s really, really horrible. I can’t even step out of town to hunt rabbits since the newbies that constantly stare at me will probably group up and hunt me once I leave the beginner’s city.
Well, besides not being able to go out and hunt, high infamy isn’t too bad, right? So I just shrugged and logged out.
---------------------------------------------------
After logging out, I still didn’t smell breakfast waiting for me. Now, that’s really weird. Like I said before, James takes care of these things. Hmm, this sucks. So I swung my legs over my bed and slid my feet into my tiger furred slippers. Then I took my first step.
*Crash*
Holy ****, its been so long since I’ve walked that my legs wasn't used to support my weight. Ugh, this is annoying. I looked at my body, which had swelled up into an ugly ball of fat.
So I hobbled downstairs to the kitchen. Every step hurt like heck and I almost fell on my way down the stairs. It’s probably the fact that I’ve been playing Royal Road so much that I forgot how to walk and adjust properly to my body.
At the Kitchen, I found James, smiling at his creation, a cake! So he decides to not make breakfast and instead bake a cake? Alright, I’ll take it. So I walk up and take the cake.
In a horrified voice James says: “What are you doing?”
Wow, James needs to be punished, first addressing me as “you” and then questioning what I’m doing. I really need to drill some manners into that tiny brain of his.
Me: “I’ll forgive you for not making breakfast since the cake looks kind of good. Next time, I won’t be so lenient, so don’t you dare make the same mistake again. Also, where is my credit card? Place it under the door in my room.”
With that, I go back up to my room.
James POV
That jerk, taking my cake that I spent all morning baking. It was a chocolate cake, layered with fruit, cream and quality dough that I personally made from cake flour. All that work took 2 hours and not even a compliment? I hate that bastard.
Well, my only consolation is that my plan had its effect.
First, I ordered an capsule using money I had saved up over the years. Then I logged into Feducia’s account by putting him in the new capsule while he was asleep. Afterwards, I changed the vein and iris scans to also allow me to access his Royal Road account. Then I waited for an opportunity to get Feducia’s bank card and password.
After taking Feducia’s card and receiving his bank account, I changed the password to the bank account. Then I went to Feducia’s mother’s room and asked her for her bank account. Since I had been comforting her since the death of Feducia’s father. It was painful watching her cry her heart out while her son was playing Royal Road, not caring about a single thing in the world. But because of my counseling, she greatly trusted me and gave me her account without question. The next step was to transfer the money from Feducia’s bank account to his mom’s. Afterwards, I deleted Feducia’s vein and iris scan from his Royal Road account and took his game account for my own.

Everything happened perfectly.
Now all of his money was in his mom’s (my) hands and he had to start over in Royal Road. In fact, I was able to determine where he would spawn and teleported/denounced him in front of thousands of people. Undoubtable, this was a huge a blow but Feducia barely seemed fazed by it, acting like he usually does, disregarding my work, assuming everything is his. What did I do wrong?
Feducia POV
After I went back to my room, instead of eating and logging into Royal Road. I put the cake down onto my desk. Then I thought about what had happened.
First, I had given James my bank account the night before this all happened. So that placed him as the highest suspect. Then, my account was taken from me and a new account created in it’s stead. As far as I knew, it was impossible for one person to have more than one account so the new Royal Road account must have been created once I was kicked off of my old Prince account. In addition, I hadn’t checked the vein and iris scans for my old account, so someone may have gotten into my account and added their own vein and iris scan. Unless Royal Road had a hack, it was highly likely that James was the suspect of this. Finally, someone who was accessing Prince’s account and denouncing me had to be in a capsule and James this morning was not making breakfast. After realizing this, I went downstairs to find James who was admiring a huge, crudely made, chocolate cake. It was obvious that he took a lot of time to make the cake. So he wasn’t the one who broke into my account.
You had thought that I was stupid right? Well sorry to disappoint you commoners but my actual IQ is 155. But the problem is that I don't ever try in my classes which is why my parents were so worried about my bad grades.
It was definitely a mistake or hack on Royal Road. Damn, Unicorn Corporation is incompetent. Royal Road is their pride and to have let such a huge hack go through their system, it was plainly sad and stupid.
Well time to go back to Royal Road.
So I logged back into Royal Road. I thought about my A rank quest, I either beat Prince in a duel or I reduce my Infamy to 0. From previous experience, Infamy that does not exceed 5,000 will decrease automatically after time. But Infamy above 5,000 will not decrease with time and players with Infamy above 10,000 have a bounty put on their heads. Infamy could only be lowered by doing quests that would have awarded fame. Basically, it was impossible to solve this quest by lowering Infamy. So that left solving the quest by defeating Prince or by just abandoning the quest.
First things first, I had to get a class. What would be best is a strong duelist class, like an assassin or an monk. From my experience playing Royal Road before, I knew that it was highly likely for me to get a better class later on. For example, I could go from a common warrior to a respectable knight then a leader paladin and finally an leader paladin. There are only 6 user leader paladins, one in each major church.
Enough thinking, my brain hurts, time for me to get moving.
*Crash*
I fell again. What the heck is this? My body was huge. It was like my own body in real life. I immediately rushed to the nearest fountain. Looking down in the water, I found myself looking at a reflection of myself in real life, perfect down to the last detail.
Upon seeing myself, I instantly fainted and fell into the fountain.
