Chapter 14: The Goblin Village After a bit of resting as he was tired. He headed to the goblin village. He had to be careful this time because there were hundreds of them. Strength in numbers. Ding! "What a chilling message. Beautiful but dangerous." Kiro mumbled to himself. The forest seemed peaceful and healthy. Trees as tall as skyscrapers from the real world could be seen. Birds were singing. If you walked quietly enough, or stayed hidden, animals such as squirrels, deer, showed themselves. It…-

Chapter 13: Hunting Duck With all the quests, he had about 500 gold coins on his person. He was like a child, walking merrily. He'd find himself skipping at times, and would stop himself. Before he could go to hunt some ducks, he went to have some armour and boots tailored. He walked into the shop, it was by far, the cleanest shop he's been in. "Welcome treasured customer, what can I do you for?" "I need cloth armour and boots tailored." "Rank of the armour?" "How much would be rare?" "800…

Chapter 12: Trivial Quests, II The sonic rats were fast but he was definitely faster. Luckily they were punchable unlike the bumblebees. They screamed a strange sound. He supposed that's why they had sonic in their name. It was meant to stun whoever it hit but Kiro simply dodged. He reckoned if they were high level monsters, their sonic attacks would've been detrimental. But he was having a good training here, hitting the sonic rats like a baseball. And like the bumblebees, it was one shot, one kill. It…

Chapter 11: Trivial Quests Kiro left the village promising the chief to get the job done, he left for the market. It was fully packed, shops, stalls not just for food, for medicine and herbs too. There were also street performers. People who danced with tamed beasts, young men playing dice, an artist offering to paint you in 2 minutes for a gold coin. He found himself glad he didn't have any money, because these merchants were pretty convincing. Various people could be seen buying things they didn't even…

Chapter 10: Beginner's Village The streets were bustling. The mood festive, the different food aromas would actually make anybody's stomach growl. Virtual or not. Street stalls selling all sorts of things, hagglers bargaining for prices. Children were running around playing all sorts of mundane games. This seemed like any busy street in a suburban area. Then without warning. Kiro appeared abruptly in the middle of the street. He was absolutely naked in that white room so he instinctively hid his goods.…

Chapter 9: Release Day They got through the school gate just fine by scanning their student IDs. Though at their appearance the guard's faces soured. It looked like even the person with the lowest power thought of themselves as the king of their small world. It could've been the fact that they looked unhealthily thin or their ragged clothes. Unfortunately for them, the whispers and stares would never stop, they'll always be about something or another, the only way to get rid of them was money. Fame and…

Chapter 8: Head Gear EA was huge, housing fifteen thousand students per year and accepting five thousand new students every year. The campuses had a lot of departments as well. Each student had their own dorm room. No sharing. Each room had its own shower. It was only one room not counting the shower room but it was spacious, a bed could be seen in the corner, a book case in front of the sofa, a student desk and a smart TV. Which was a device that was 5 inches long and thick, you simply pressed it and a…

Chapter 7: Eden Academy Hiro sure talked a lot or tried to, because he was awkwardly trying to make conversation as if he was forcing himself to but Kiro didn't hate it. The train ride wasn't as boring as Kiro remembered, now that he had company he was glad Hiro chose his compartment. He wanted to apologise for ever having an attitude the first time the pale scrawny kid walked in. He found out that Hiro was being sent off to the academy as well. He was also dirt poor. They talked for the most part. They…

Chapter 6: Travelling Out of nowhere. The youngest, Alora tugged her older brother and said, "Big bro Ki, bring me a gift, something nice when you come back." With the brightest smile she said, giggling cheerfully. Kiro had to lie and say he'll be back the same day, otherwise it would've been a war. Unlike Kiro who had their father's rare deep blue eyes, that seemed to have lightning in them and curly dark brown hair, both Loki and Alora had hazel eyes and black hair, which they took after their…

Chapter 5: Preparations It was raining heavily in the afternoon. Kiro was walking back home. He had asked his parents to go on ahead in the car. He loved the smell of rain, beating on dry soil. So he didn't pass up the chance and his nose was grateful. He also needed time alone. As much as he wanted to spend every waking minute with his family, he had a lot on his mind. He couldn't shake the feeling that something was eerily strange. But he couldn't wrap his head around the eeriness. He was doubting that…
