1 Internet Cafe, And Fire Monk Ace?

(I had problems with the previous book, a bug prevented me from writing and posting new chapters, so I'm reworking the story since I lost the chapters.)

• MC's POV •

One day, like all the others, I was finally able to clean and tidy up my own Internet cafe. I was tired of working for Lex Luthor. Besides being a terrible boss and the security of his employees being terrible, there is the Superman factor, which always destroys everything and we have to clean it up.

"I know he's a renowned hero, but he could use some decency, couldn't he? He is very rude." I was continuing to clean when a shadow took over everything. Before I could even look, I could no longer see anything.

I could feel everything cold as if the heat had left my body, in the same way that I began to realize that there was nothing around me, just a strange screen showing my entire life.

-----☆-----

"So I died this way?" I was watching the scene of my death. Superman took the green robot out of space and headed towards me. He seemed to be furious, he just didn't see me, and I was crushed by the robot.

"I....why?..." I can't believe something like this: on my first day having my own job, I was killed by my old boss and this bastard in underwear on top!

"I promise I will find you and pull your foot at night!" I was cursing all generations of this Superman, especially Lex Luthor, but how can I do anything? I am dead!

At that moment, I looked towards the panel, which had something written on it.

[Your death was unfair, you were born into a world you shouldn't have been in in the first place. We would like to offer you the opportunity to be reborn into a new world, where you will have the opportunity to manage your Internet cafe.] I would read it, not believing what was in front of me. This is too unreal to be true, but, thinking about it, a man with underwear over his pants flying at high speeds and fighting a bald man with a robot is also a bit unreal.

[In this world, several other characters will be able to visit your store and be potential customers, so would you like to accept the proposal?] I spent a while thinking about this. What a wonderful job offer! Who would deny such a thing?

At that moment, a flash took over everything. Before I knew it, I was already in the middle of my old store, but I couldn't see anything outside of it.

"W-wow..." I looked at my hands, in disbelief at everything. Am I back?

[Hello host, I am your management and help system; I will help you create an Internet cafe like never before. In front of me, the same screen appeared; it was golden in color with black details and white letters; it looked like some kind of ornate frame.

[To help you, we will offer you a starter kit, please open it.] This voice was calm and comforting to hear. I stretched my hand until I opened the gift, and then two things appeared on my screen.

[Congratulations on earning the following rewards.]

[Computers with VR 10x]

[Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 VR]

[Silient Hill VR]

The rewards are not bad, but computers instantly appeared with their tables and chairs, they were black to match the establishment.

"In fact, I wanted to ask something now: why can I see nothing out there?" I looked at the window, which only had a light coming out, simulating sunlight.

[You are in worldless mode; in the future, you will be able to travel to other worlds, but at the moment, this purpose is locked for your safety.] It makes sense; it would be pretty bad to end up leaving and dying so soon, but the fact that I can go out and explore other worlds is wonderful.

[Games can improve your strength and that of your clients, please do not play during working hours.] You don't need to warn me about this. I know I should only play when I'm free, but getting strong is an interesting idea.

• Ace's Pov

I was sailing the seas in search of new things. This feeling of traveling the world is wonderful, until I saw a strange island appearing out of nowhere. It had a type of hut above it with the lights on. Out of curiosity, I decided to go to it, stopping the boat.

"What should this be?" I would walk to the cabin, looking at the windows but seeing nothing inside. I would scratch my head as I entered through the front door, so everything took on a vivid form. It was a kind of store with strange things in the place, besides a girl with white hair and extravagant clothes.

"Oh, welcome to my Internet cafe, how can I help?" So it's a type of store? I would walk around looking at the place without understanding much, heading towards the woman in front of me.

"What does your store offer?" I was totally curious about this; a store appearing out of nowhere doesn't make any sense!

"This is a multiversal store, that door connects other worlds. we offer games, you can play and enjoy time for yourself." A multiversal store? But what is she talking about!?

"The store appeared out of nowhere, didn't it? This should give you some idea of how it works." She's right, even if I still don't trust it, so games aren't they? doesn't seem like a bad idea.

"The price is 2500 Berris, you can play as well as train your body." This is much stranger, but as it's cheap, it won't be so bad. I just paid her where she guided me to the game. I was interested in one with a dragon design, and where she put a helmet on me, everything around me changed!

"You are in a new game reality, you will be able to experience the feeling much more closely and live it. choose your character." I would listen to her explanation, that doesn't seem so bad to me. I would look around. Was I in a strange place made of stone, some kind of arena? I would walk around, seeing the huge statues in front of me, but I felt that this guy, Liu Kang, was calling me.

After choosing the character, my body started to change, I looked like myself. This is so magnificent! Soon, four great towers appeared, and their difficulties are described below.

"I choose the highest difficulty!" Soon everything started to descend. The tower showed me my first opponent, a strange large man in green clothes. The arena changed to a bridge, where behind something giant was some kind of spiral. I don't know.

"Round one, FIGHT!" I heard the announcer's scream. I was taken by surprise by the creature's attack, it was fast! I tried to counterattack, but he just blocked, and the fight soon started.

-----♡-----

"Damn, how can this happen so fast!?" My Haki was having almost no effect against him, he also seemed to have a strong type of Haki, as he dodged as if it were natural!

"TAKE THAT!" My fists caught fire, launching a fire dragon at the reptile, which was hit in the chest and thrown back. I tried again, but he just dodged and ran towards me, seeming to kick me. I went to defend myself, but he just jumped, and he threw a green projectile from his mouth. When it touched my skin, I felt everything burning painfully.

"A fake attack? Damn you, lizard!" He laughed at my situation, and I ran with everything I could, trying to attack him again. An exchange of physical blows began, and it seemed like I was learning a strange way of fighting over time.

"UuuWo!" I moved forward, giving a flying kick at Repite's chest and throwing him against the rock at the end of the bridge, but what was that scream!? How embarrassing!

"Aargh!" He screamed in pain, just trying to get up and falling to the ground. I felt the taste of victory from it all. My body was sore from the attacks of this reptile; he is too strong! He could probably give a lot of my brothers a hard time! Marco would have an easy time against him.

"Round two, FIGHT!" I looked towards the reptile, seeing him get up and run towards me. Damn it!
