Its five in the morning and Sousuke was doing his usual trainining. He was doing 100 sit-ups and pushups and running for about 7 km. This is his usual training menu before going to school. Since today is weekend, he extended his training by practicing sword at the dojo.
After he arrived home, he took a shower and changed his cloth. In his room, a white capsule with ToB logo had been installed by his father. He quickly put on the capsule and a white screen appeared.

Oh, I remember father says something about the modified capsule. Well, it`s nothing major anyway, thought Sousuke
Would you like to take the tutorial?
"Yes"
"Well tutorial is just the basic of everything . I will explain about the game mechanisms starting with skills. Skills in the game can be generated by repeating the same action or by completing quest. Skills can also be taught by NPC and skill books. You can also sell your own active skill. You need to visit training hall for the instructor to evaluate your skill if you wish to sell it. Skill can be ranked from E to SS. Skill progression can be tracked from beginner>intermediate>advance>master>grandmaster. Special quest is needed to progress from master to grandmaster."
"Do you have any question about skills?"
"No."
"Moving on, classes and quests can be obtained from NPC or finding some items related to it. The most basic classes such as warrior, archer, mage and assasin can be obtained by visiting the guild. The classes also can evolve depending on the players. For example, if a mage focus more on fire based spell, he can become a pyromancer. Do you want to know about secret classes?"
"Sure."
"Secret classes is a class which has a powerful skills but also has a large drawback. You could find secret classes by finding NPC or legendary item. It depends on luck usually."
"Hmm, I see."
"For quests, it can be classified into normal quest, class quest or history quest. Quest can be ranked from F to SSS. F ranked quest is a simple job quest such as working in a restaurant while SSS quest usually involved god or something with the power of god. Other than quest, there is also event which will happen when the condition is triggered."
"Is there something more powerful than god?"
"There is but it is difficult to encounter it. Anyway, that's all for the tutorial. I will give you a clue about the Tower of Babel as a gift for completing the tutorial. If you wish to conquer the tower, fulfill the three requirements and you will find it. Good luck."

With a flash of light, Sousuke appeared in the middle of the forest. The trees that grow in the forest is so large and there is many unique tree. Some of the trees emits strange light and smeel. There is also a lot of strange animals. He silently obeserved his surroundings and then started looking at himself. He moved his finger and body around.
This is amazing. This world feel the same as real world. The forest and the air also feels real. He then tried to move the body but he felt that his movement is slower than his real body. I should check my stats. "Status window."

Hmm, I think this body need a lot of exercises. Either way, why did father set this forest as my starting point. Before he started to ponder about it, a loud roar could be heard. Well, first thing first, I need to get out of here and find some place where I can train.
*Ding*
Local Event
You have caused the ire if the guardian of the forest by trespassing the forest. It will chased you until you die or leave the forst. It is adviced that you run as fast as possible.
Hmm, so that's how the event is triggered. Either way, I don't have anything to beat the bear so I have to run as fast as possible.
A big bear with silver claw and flaming fur was standing behind him. The bear tried to pound on him but Sousuke dodged it by instinct. He then quickly ran and head to the outer forest.. After about an hour, the chase between the bear and Sousuke came to a stop as he managed to get out of forest. He also got a few skills and stats but he mute all the notification because the sound annoyed him.
He then started to search for a nearby village. When he arrived, there was no sound and he saw no one in the village. I guess this is a ghot town. No one is around and it is so quite. I should check the house to see if there is something I can find.
He found a few fruits, breads and swords. He began to wander around the ghost town to find a suitable place to train. He also found some traces of slashes and magic. Based on the slashes, there should be a fight taking place in this village recently and no one survive huh. After an hour, he found training hall and started to train. He clenched the wooden sword that he found and started hitting the wooden golem. After he strike for 50 times, the golem started to move and it strikes back. The golem is programmed to start attacking and evolving after every 50 strikes. He managed to strikes the golem for 350 times and decided to take a rest.
While he was resting, he suddenly felt danger and managed to dodge the first strike but the second strikes was coming and he unable to dodge it. He was killed or so he thought.
