In less than an hour, the ga that will be the catalyst for the Earthlings to begin treading onto the Mortal Pathway was close to being completed.
Unlike the technology of modern Earth where one needed to write a program or use an engine to build a ga, this advanced technology from the World of ta only required to place everything on the map.
It's like a blank sheet of paper that I needed to fill up with pre-made stickers to complete an art. As for the System that would be used… a simple leveling system was enough.
At this mont, Hikari, who was supposed to test the ga was in front of , wearing rags as clothes and a wooden stick as a weapon.
To keep the imrsion, there's no na right above her head to indicate that she's a player.
I planned to make it to be a ga where PVP was allowed everywhere.
Naturally… there's a system that would prevent players from camping at one place to pick off the weaker ones.
"Really? There's even a novice gear like this? Does everyone need to start with this?" Half-complaining and half-admiring. Hikari held the wooden stick before her and waved it.
With how fast she was swinging it, the wooden stick imdiately turned to dust.
Its durability is gone in an instant.
That's also part of imrsion. Well, in a way that didn't bend to the sa reality the Earthlings were used to.
Nonetheless, it only happened because of Hikari's currently intact UPL and stats. If it was a normal player who didn't even know how to properly walk in here, it would take a good while before the stick broke.
Upon seeing her novice weapon disintegrate, Hikari beca wide-eyed as she tried to put back the falling dust and rebuild it into a stick. And while part-grieving and part-complaining, she looked at with watery eyes, "Master, what did I do?"
"Stop that act. You know, I liked you better when you're the obedient Hikari when I first arrived in that world."
Well, she's not really obedient but her sense of crisis back then was so high that she looked more serious than now wherein she's having fun in trying this ga.
"Eh? Is that so? You liked back then? Well then…" Hikari fixed her glasses and began spinning around from where she was.
Magically, the rags barely covering her body disappeared as her Magus Robes and her Elental Staff appeared on her hand.
This ti, she's now back to her attire at the World of Elents.
She misunderstood what I said but I found no motivation to correct her. She appeared free-spirited now. Although it's not that bad… She's sowhat treating this in a playful attitude.
"Here, Master. This is more comforting than the rags. What do I do next?" Bearing the grace of a Zenith Magus from that world, Hikari didn't wait for my answer as she flew up in the sky.
Raising the Elental Staff in her hand, Light Elental Energy began to gather on it and emit dazzling brilliance.
However, before she could even do what she planned to do, the Light Elental Energy she conjured abruptly dissipated and the glasses girl Zenith Magus fell down on the ground, butt first.
I could catch her or stop her fall by so simple commands in the interface of this Administration access but… I chose not to.
BAM!
Along with a cry of pain, Hikari rolled on the ground before standing up in difficulty.
"Master. At least tell when you will turn off other types of Energy and suppress my stats! Ah! My butt…!"
While rubbing her behind Hikari drew near and complained once again.
But at least, her playfulness lessened.
"I told you, didn't I? In this ga, there is only Earth Energy. Your attire will also be reverted back to earlier. The System of the ga fixed your current stats. It was configured to put you back to being a Rank 1 Mortal. You're gonna test this ga's playability as well as imrsion, am I right? It's a lot better to put you below rather than at the top of the pyramid."
Since this girl would be testing this ga for , giving her harsh conditions like this was better.
However, I expect another question from her.
"I understand… However, how will you know that it's effective to let them step into treading their Mortal Pathway?"
Dropping her playful act, Hikari began to take this test seriously.
"I redirected the Energy you would be getting into another container that could mimic a Mortal's Body."
Although it wouldn't be able to move, it would be able to accumulate the energy and mimic how an Earthling would breakthrough.
Naturally, I could kidnap just about anyone to beco the guinea pig but… I was too lazy and the girls wouldn't like it. Probably.
After telling her the intricacies of this ga. What she can and what she cannot do as well as the leveling and experience system, Hikari began diving into the small world of Pathway Online.
I tried hard to think of a na but… I still ca up with that. Anyway, it would serve its purpose and there's no use mulling over sothing like this.
The setting of the ga was simple.
It's an action-survival RPG. A player will be dropped in a world plagued by… Alien Invaders.
Right, I adopted the setting of a Mortal World being attacked by an invasive one.
However, those Alien Invaders had already conquered the world twenty years ago.
With a map the size of the whole earth, everyone would be having unique experiences.
Aside from quests that would give them monetary or material rewards, the ga would offer different kinds of playstyle.
If one wanted to lead a country, he could create a village among the NPC's who wouldn't feel like an NPC since they were all plucked from my mories.
The one way to easily get experience points for leveling up was… naturally, Absorption.
However, I had it disabled at the start and after leveling up to Rank 2 Mortal or the 2nd Realm would they be able to do it.
So the first part of the ga was… hack and slash.
They needed to kill throngs of Dark World Denizens or Anzeans or any other races from my mory that would be mistaken as monsters rather than an intelligent race.
The items they would be able to get were weapons, clothes and anything one could think of. Moreover, there were also Energy Stones that were sowhat real. If they saw one and used one, they could use it to replenish their Energy or aid in their Pathway.
Everything they would encounter in the ga was all intelligent creatures and if they're not careful, they would be wiped out before they could even grow strong enough to reach Transcendence.
The cap of the ga would be Rank 5 Mortal.
Once a player reaches that, he or she would be received by the EDA to undergo training.
Nonetheless, I already expect people to stop the ga as soon as they reach Rank 2 Mortal. They would be able to see that the ability they awakened in the ga could also be used in real life.
When in truth, the Full Imrsion Chamber would copy every phenonon happening to the player with the Headgear on.
It's still rough around the edges so… I called for more backup.

Outside the two Full Imrsion Chambers that were being used by Daisuke and Hikari, Yuko and Yumiko were looking at each other with mixed emotions in their eyes.
"I want to help Daisuke but I don't even know what they're talking about. " Yumiko bitterly smiled as she watched the two's interaction on the screen.
Although Daisuke was following behind Hikari who was killing everything on sight, they could see that despite facepalming at tis, their man was enjoying what he's seeing.
"Dai-kun told us to also go inside and try it. What do you think?"
"Then let's go. I… I'm bored waiting here. The ga still looked like a normal simulation but…" Yumiko pointed at Hikari's Full Imrsion Chamber and the dummy Energy Storage where the Energy that should be injected into the player was being gathered.
"Un. It beca sothing like an automatic Absorption Room. Furthermore, she's not ditating but hacking and slashing everything she passes through."
"Do you think this will really work for the Earth's population?"
"Un. I can see that it will be a sensation." Even without using her Foresight, just the fact that one could strengthen themselves through a ga would give the normal populace a reason to play it. Besides, Daisuke planned to accelerate the ti in the ga for four tis. One day inside it would only be six hours in the real world.
"Hmm? What will beco a sensation?"
Suddenly the door to the place opened and the whole Special Class arrived. Not actually whole since there were still heroes in their Otherworlds.
However, all these Heroes of the Special Class were Transcendents that were listed in either Daisuke's Support List or Allies since there was no opened slot yet.
Daisuke called all of them without telling them that they would beco the alpha testers of the ga they were currently hearing about in the streets or on the internet around the whole world.
"This. This will beco a sensation. Yuko pointed at the monitor in front of her and their eyes followed suit.
Although so didn't have a reaction upon seeing what's being shown there, most of them had their jaws slacked. Not because of the simulation… but because of what Hikari was doing.
"Uhm. What is Hikari doing there?" Curious, Lulu, the Heroine of the World of Fairy innocently asked.
"Playing a ga?" Instead of Yuko, Yumiko answered her.
However, that only brought more confusion to them.
Nonetheless, with the two girls setting up more Full Imrsion Chamber for the more than 10 Heroes and sending them inside it, clueless as to what they needed to do, Daisuke's planned ga was close to coming into fruition.
