Kirigaya Kazuto's POV
Ever since the Infinite Crisis ca out, the ga have been very well received by the gars worldwide. Mythos Entertainnt, a rising company that appeared out of nowhere and imdiately took over the VR industry like stealing candy from kids. Everything was like a dream ca true to , a ga that feels like a second reality where every players have to move their own body instead of relying on a good old physical controller. The capsule were slightly expensive than the average PC, but it was worth the price considering the huge benefits that cos with it. As soone who really looks up to technology in general, I really wanted to et the genius behind the capsule and the ga invention.
Playing solo is a lot more difficult than the recomnd team play, but the rewards makes the experiences more than made up to it. I wasn't soone who had that many friends to begin with, but it was also thanks to this ga that most people at my school often have sothing to talk about—instead of the usual gossiping involving students drama.
I had even made a na for myself in the ga, the Black Swordsman. It was rather embarrassing to admit but, they decided to go with that likely because I was always seen wearing all black and wield a sword as my main weapon. So even called a cheater, not knowing I have been learning about the system of the ga since I was lucky enough to be invited into the beta. The ga was truly like another world, every chanisms feels like sothing that anyone with a proper mindset could take advantage of just by simply thinking this digital world as a second reality.
That's how I were able to get this far, a Level 70 Swordmaster. Sowhat, I have seems to have mysteriously triggered a rare quest that allow to change the normal Swordsman class to the current one I have. Of course I accepted it without any hesitation, there is a master in the class na after all—it should be stronger than the average class. Even the NPC have also changes the way they addressed , usually every players were called as 'Guests From Afar'. But after the class change, I was referred to as Young Master.
It was hard getting used to it, I even tried to make them stop but to no avail. They're treating like a noble, however, it made sense considering the ga is set like a dieval fantasy. Perhaps, the class didn't just made a better Swordsman with powerful skills, but it also gives an aura that NPC can distinguish from average players. Otherwise, how could an NPC from a small village also called the sa as others?
But that wasn't the most pressing issues, it never was. At least in comparison to sothing that could affect the very reality every players live in. Yes, for so unknown reasons, I realized my strength seems unusual high when I had a kendo practice with my cousin after such a long while. I ended up sending her crashing into the wall, fortunately I didn't exert my full strength. If only my surprise ends there, that would've been great. But it didn't. In fact, it gets relatively worse.
I didn't know what's gotten into but I tried executing the sword skill in real life after that accident. Normally, that shouldn't work because it's a video ga after all. No matter how hard they tried to mimic it as close as reality, it's just made of zero and one at the end. The class power system are just data combined with pretty visual.
Yet it works. I managed to cut a small branch of a tree my aunt had been growing with the wooden sword used for kendo practice. It was the basic sword skill, Sword Slash. If I had sohow thought about this during the practice with my cousin, that would've ended up tragic. But my curiosity didn't end there, I continue testing a lot more things until I finally confird my theory.
It seems my Kirito, Level 70 Swordmaster, a video ga character I had painstakingly grinding so hard for, had sohow rged with myself in reality. I didn't know when, but at so point it does felt like sothing had changed, though I couldn't pinpoint the exact tifra. Plus, I never think it was sothing special that only happens to , so I boldly search anything related to the ga on the net until I found an obscure forum. They aren't that many mbers there, barely in the hundred but most of them have recognisable na. That goes without saying, these people are the top players of Infinite Crisis.
And the forum also have a mber chat, which the top players used to exchange information in regards to IRL stuff without exposing too much of their real Identity. But from what everyone had gathered, there's a common thing—they all played the ga. Then one player claid they realised when the rging occurs and the possibly requirents. Player needed to be at least Level 50 or higher, and they must also have rare class. Every top players also have their own secret, but all of them confird that the theory have so truth to it.
And just like any other days, I cos online to check if the mbers increase, and it did. Just by reading the backlog, the newcor fortunately found out while he was working at the construction site by accident. They were on a quick smoke break when they, like many other curious souls, decides it would be fun to try picking up a concrete bag. And surprisingly, they could easily do it one hand despite knowing clearly they were never that strong. By the ti I catches up to the newer ssages, the newcor were already familiar with most active mbers.
Kirito: Did I miss anything?
XxHaremKingxX: No, just a rather lucky new mber.
Girls_Are_Cute: WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT BECOS A GIRL
Kirito: Ah, I see. It seems a certain soone is still grieving over the lost of their little dragon.
Angelic_Ninja: Well, they're the only one that inherited the gender as well. Pfft. Thankfully I didn't dare to try playing as opposite gender.
Girls_Are_Cute: HOW WOULD I KNOW THIS WOULD HAPPENS!!!! FUCK THIS GA MAN
XxHaremKingxX: That's not what you said when you first joined this forum, what was it again? 'Man I love this new body, I can't stop touching myself', was it?
XxHaremKingxX sent a screenshot to the chat.
Girls_Are_Cute: BITCH YOU SAVED THAT?! YOU WANN FGHT IT OUT HUH
XxHaremKingxX: On bed? Sure, I'm open anyti. Even if you're an ugly fat otaku before, you're a cute girl now, heh.
Kirito: you two gets along well.
Angelic_Ninja: I don't think so, but thank the Heaven I gives the ga a try and now I can do the legendary ninjutsu like it was nothing!
Ruri: It's not so bad. I wish I can unlock flight soon, then I can just fly to school or sothing.
MASTER: Well if you don't mind attracting attention, then go ahead. The governnt seems to be looking out for people like us, I wouldn't be surprise if they already invades this forum.
I widened my eyes at that ssage. I hadn't seen any news about the ga, so I thought the governnt didn't know anything just yet. But if what 'MASTER' said is true, then wouldn't everyone be in danger? I had read many novels with that plot, and most of them didn't end well.
