"Why are you standing there and looking at as though I am about to die? Co here big brother and let punch so sense into you." Mia said with a grin while cracking her knuckles.
Zack quickly pulled himself together and gave his sister a small smile. He slowly walked towards her bed and stood at her side.
"You think your punch can do anything to ?" He asked with a small smile as Mia chuckled before she broke eye contact with her brother.
"Zack, don't try to save . You can go ahead and live your own life. Go to a university, try finding love and live a good life. Mom and dad left us enough money for all that."
It had been two days after their parents had died and Zack had decided to play Hikari to save Mia. But now that he was in front of his sister, he knew that no matter what, he would save her.
And if he got extra money, that was a bonus.
"Sis, don't talk like you are about to die," He lightly hit his side on her head with the side of his right hand. "I will find a way to cure you."
"You do know that it takes 70 million for the treatnt? Even if you sell our house and everything inside it, we will still not reach that amount," The black-haired girl shook her head. "It would be better to let die here since I am not even related to you by blood."
"But you are related to by our bond." He said with a smile and patted her head. Mia pouted at her brother but her heart was warm.
A few months after Zack had been born, his parents had decided to have another baby. But the baby had been born stillborn. Both of his parents had been in shock but they had slowly started recovering.
When he had been two years old, his parents had adopted a girl three months younger than him. The girl had been dropped at the door of an orphanage at a young age and his parents had thought that even if their child had died, they could take care of soone else's child.
And since the child had no na, they decided to na her Mia. That was the na they had thought for their baby if the baby had been a female.
"Fine, then do what you want. The doctor says that my condition is still controllable and I would be discharged in three days. But he also said that I should get treated within three months or things would start getting worse." Mia added as her brother nodded.
"I will gather enough money by then." The black-haired boy then turned around and started moving out of the room.
"Zack," But he stopped when he heard his sister calling him. "Just don't do anything illegal."
"Don't worry sis, I will never do anything like that." He replied without turning back and walked out of the room.
But after closing the door behind his back, Zack stood there for a few minutes. A few drops of tears trickled down his cheeks yet he didn't make a sound.
After all, they were tears of joy.
He could still do everything correctly.
After calling a cab, Zack went back to his house and went to the kitchen. He ate so food and entered his room. He had already locked the entire house and now closed the door of his room.
'The food pills would be released in two weeks ti while the VR pods with nutrition providing system should be released in about two to three months.' His mind was already thinking about what was going to happen in the future.
He then sat down on the bed and looked at the VR glasses. The world had no idea what was going to happen in a few days.
Hikari was going to explode through the roof and all four companies founders were going to beco rich enough to talk with the governnt about real-life currency exchange.
If Zack rembered correctly, this would happen in a month's ti and those at the top of the rankings would get the prize money then.
But the ga's popularity didn't fall after that event ended. It instead multiplied by three tis. This was because the ga developers from Japan introduced the system of arena and tournants.
But that would happen a month later and Zack knew that there was no point in thinking about that right now. He then started scrolling through his phone watch.
Most of the articles were talking about Hikari and how the ga was going to be released soon. He spent most of his ti doing random things before the ti finally arrived.
As soon as the clock went on 12, Zack went ahead and wore the VR glasses while he tied the smartwatch on his left hand. The watch monitored the body's condition and was linked to the VR glasses.
So if anything happened to the body, the watch would directly alert the person since it was connected to the glasses.
He then laid on the bed as the terms of condition, legal conditions, etc. started appearing. Zack scrolled through and accepted all of them before the real thing ca.
"Link start." He muttered and closed his eyes as his brain was connected to the VR glasses.
[ Welco to Hikari. The ga where dreams co true. Please create your character. ]
[ Note: custom character creation would require the user to have a custom character card. ]
[ Custom character card found.
Please proceed to create your avatar. ]
< Enter your na player: >
"Lin Fan," Zack spoke.
He could see the system interface in front of him. Since he was directly inside the ga, he looked exactly like he did in the real world.
But for now, the important thing was that he needed to create an appearance that no one could recognize in the outer world.
That was why he had paid an extra 300 dollars just to get the custom character creation card. When money was linked with real life, people will finally start understanding the importance of this card and there would be a shortage of custom character creation cards.
The players at higher levels had gotten many of these from completing quests and they would start selling them for high sums of money.
That was what Zack planned to do. As for why he chose his na to be Lin fan, it was because one of the developers had been a web novel nerd.
And Lin Fan was one of his favorite characters. And the first person to take this na would get a secret benefit.
This was revealed on the forums by the guy who had taken this na. Apparently, he had gotten a 50% exp boost because of this feature.
< Please choose your appearance: >
After so thinking, Zack decided to use the appearance of his previous avatar. White hair and purple eyes.
He had purple eyes in real life too. Before the war, rarely anyone in the world had purple eyes. But so kind of mutation happened during the world war three and currently, 2% of the world had purple eyes.
[ Please choose your starting class:
Mage
Knight
Cleric
Ranger
Thief
Warrior

Hikari had a total of 25 beginning job classes that a player playing for the first ti could choose from. The person however might get confused by the sheer number of job classes.
But since a person could choose a sub-job class, later on, people didn't care to choose carefully. But little did they know that so sub-job classes could be taken from their main job classes.
Zack had initially chosen the mage job class but after acquiring Gugnir, his main job class has been forcefully changed to self-healer, which was a unique job class only a few people could have.
But that was not all, his sub-job class feature has also been blocked and this prevented him from doing anything about it.
But this ti he was not going to make that mistake now.
"Mage."
Zack could have chosen other job classes and could have been a jack of all trades but in Hikari, being a jack of trade was only fun in the beginning.
After reaching a certain level, you could do nothing about it. Being a mage had its benefits. If you were skilled enough, you could make your mage class beco a battle mage and could use both physical combat and magic.
But after that ca one of the most important choices in the ga.
[ Please choose one of the sides in Hikari:
Light side
Dark side
Neutral side ]
This was the thing that decided one of the most major outcos of the ga. Each side had its own benefits but Zack knew what he had to do.
"Light side." He said with a sigh as his avatar was finally created. He was tempted to choose the neutral side like he had done earlier but people didn't trust those who were on the neutral side since they could be friends one minute and beco enemies the next second.
Congratulations on being the 49th person to create an avatar in Hikari! As a special thank you gift, you will receive ten random loot boxes.
[ Thank you for playing the ga.
Enjoy your playing ti Lin Fan. ]
