1 CHAPTER 01
On year 2032, A VMMORPG called Knights and Magic was introduced to the World.
An Open world game that was very detailed and Top notch.
The GAME consisted with 4 Different classes to choose from.
A Sorcerer, Gunner, Assasin and lastly the Warrior.
But each Class had two attributes to choose from.
The sorcerer had the Ice Attribute and the Earth Attribute. The Gunner had the Lightning Attribute as well as the Cannon Attribute. The Assasin had the Poison Attribute as well as the Blink Attribute. And lastly the Warrior had the Fire Attribute and the Raw attribute.
Each attributes of the designated class had different types of Power.
The Ice attribute of the Sorcerer is focused solely on Reflect damage and massive health pool while the Earth attribute of the Sorcerer is focused on Pierce damage and It's defense.
The Lightning attribute of the Gunner is focused on Pierce damage and It's defense while the Cannon attribute focus solely on AoE damage and Evasion.
The Poison attribute of the assasin is focused on it's Poison damage and It's high evasion rate meanwhile the Blink attribute is focused on Critical damage and large health pool.
As the Fire Attribute of the warrior is focused on Critical damage and High regeneration rate while the Raw attribute is focused on Reflect damage and a massive health pool the same as the Ice sorcerer.
But each Class and attribute has their own special skills and can upgrade their current classes into another level if the required level is achieved.
The 4 Classes were perfectly balanced by the developers of the GAME.
Thus the GAME went viral after its release.
The Developers explained that the game would be free for all countries and had no language barrier.
As the players from different countries speak using their own languages the game will automatically Translate it and turn it into ENGLISH.
Then many players around the world tried to play the game.
A Young man who just got ripped off from a scam company saying that if he invests into the company his money would double immediately in just a week.
The young man was a University student named "Val Bethooven" who was currently living alone in a Tiny apartment near his University and was so dumb that he invested his life savings and got scammed.
Then as he was walking along the streets all gloomy he saw the VMMORPG's latest advertisment on a TV store.
Then he gained interest and wanted to try playing the newly released game.
But he suddenly remembered that he was completely broke and went home depressed.
After reaching his apartment, he took off his sneakers and lied down straight to his bed.
*Ring* *Ring*
As his phone rang like crazy.
He then picks it up and answers the call.
"Hello---"
"Son how are you? How's your life going in the city? You know that we aren't rich right? So make sure to study well and get a stable job so that you could help your little sister when she becomes a University student."
Val who was currently broke and had low grades couldn't handle his father's words.
"Yes father, I'll do my best. And I'm currently fine over here. You better take care of yourselves, both you and mom okay?" As he spoke while trembling abit.
"Don't worry about me and your mom son, just focus on your studies. Love you son" *Beep*
Val was devasted and couldn't handle his current situation.
"How am I gonna tell them that I failed the Midterm exams. I'm gonna have to retake another year." As val thought and cried silently.
As he went "depressed mode" and started to act all gloomy, he then took a nap to calm his mind and think of a way to survive his situation.
When he woke up it was already 6:00 PM.
He then cooked instant ramen so that he could eat dinner. As he sat at his table, He turned the TV on and wanted to watch some news as he waited for the noodles to melt.
"Greetings! The Company Team OBI announced that they will be giving away "Five Virtual Capsules" for free. Five lucky candidates can get a chance to win five virtual capsules! All you gotta do is Login to their website "www.kam.team-obi" and comment down on their latest post and get a chance to win a virtual capsule! Easy right!? What are you waiting for! Comment now! ---- As the advertisment ended.
Val who was hopeless started to gain a lil' bit of hope as he saw the advertisment.
He then opens his phone and logged into the website and saw the latest post of Team OBI "Knights And Magic's First Release" and he immediately commented "PLSSS ME WIN! ME WIN PLSSSS!"
And after he entered his comment he noticed that there were Ten million comments already.
The spark of hope that he saw suddenly vanished and went back to his depressed state.
Then he looked at his Instant ramen that was already good to eat then he started eating.
The TV then announced the VMMORPG's statistics since it released.
"The Trade release of 2032, September 21 is currently 1-1. Means 1 Gold is equivalent to 1USD.
Val was astonished as he heard this on TV.
He started kneeling down and prayed.
"Kame-sama! Buddha! Lord! God! Jesus Christ! Allah! Korean Jesus! American Jesus! Philippine Jesus! The Holy Spirits! The Moon and the Sun! Ying and Yang! Please let me be one of the lucky candidates that get to win a free Virtual Capsule!"
Then as he prayed he fell asleep...
The next day came, his alarm went on.
*Krinnngggg!* *Krinnnngggg!*
Val then opens his eyes and jumped off the bed looking for his phone.
The he immediately sees the Latest post of Team OBI announcing the winners of the Virtual Capsules.
And he scrolled down as he read the Introductions and saw his name at the #5 Spot.
Val who was desperate on winning the virtual capsule jumped with excitement.
*Beep"
He received an Email from Team OBI asking for his Information and Address.
So they would be able to deliver the Virtual Capsule.
He then double checks the Email if it was Legit.
(Val who was scammed by fake emails is now learning his lesson)
He filled up the form while sweeping tears of joy coming out from his eyes.
*Type* *Type* *Type* and Send.
Val was so excited that he couldn't stop smiling and had a jaw cramp.
After a few hours he received a reply saying that the Package was shipped out and will be delivered to his address at two days.
Then he started browsing on the internet and searched for "NEW PLAYER GUIDE" videos and researched the Game's Features.
After waiting for two whole days. The package finally arrived at his doorsteps.
*Knock knock*
"Your pack---
*Opens the door immediately*
"Thank you oh delivery guy of god!"
"Please fill up the form here" The Delivery man was shocked on how Val was acting.
After filling up the form he immediately receives the package and brings it inside of his apartment.
As he looked around his apartment, The whole place became small as the Package was consuming alot of space because of its size. But he didn't bother cause he was excited.
"Hmm, Let's see here" As he checks the Guide on how to operate the Virtual Capsule.
After fifteen minutes he succeed on Operating the Virtual Capsule and instantly hopped into it.

*DEFEAT 5 ENRAGED WOLVES*
"I can see the Wolves HP bar. I think 10 Hits will do, I guess."
Kaowasabe then rushed towards the Enraged wolf and used his Skill "Fire slash" and DMG INFLICT + CRIT INFLICT appeared and immediately killed the Wolf.
"The heck?! Fire warrior is so OP!"
Then he continued on killing the remaining Wolves that were infront of him. And he noticed that the GAME is very detailed even the Wolves blood looked real. Then he continued doing the tutorial quests.
As kaowasabe enjoyed the game, He defeated alot of monsters and finished the game tutorial.

As kaowasabe arrived he looked around and saw alot of players wandering around and talking with each other.
Then he was so excited he started touring around the entire village.
Alot of players were roaming around the village as kaowasabe wandered around.
He saw alot of players with different classes and character customizations.
As he got immersed on looking around the entire village, He suddenly remembered his sole purpose on playing this game.
It was to earn real money.
So he snapped back to his senses and started looking for quests that might reward him some Gold coins.
GOLD COINS were convertible into US DOLLARS.
1 GOLD COIN is equivalent to 1 USD.
But to earn 1 GOLD you will need to have 100 SILVER and it will automatically convert into 1 GOLD.
And to earn 1 Silver you will need to have 100 COPPER and it will automatically convert into 1 SILVER.
Kaowasabe then started looking around the Wolf Village if there were any quests available for him.
Then he met a player who was searching for quests too.
Kaowasabe coughed and asked "Umm, do you perhaps know where to find the Beginner's quests around here?"
"I don't know, I'm also a newbie that just started playing today." The player replied.
"Oh, let's search for the Beginner's quests together." As kaowasabe replied.
"Sure! I'm down." (Means his good to go)
As they walked around the streets of Wolf Village.
Kaowasabe asked "What's your IGN by the way? I'm Kaowasabe, A Fire Warrior."
"Umm, Nice to meet you Kaowasabe. I'm Zeth, A Raw Warrior."
"Now we know each other, Let's go look around there." (As kaowasabe pointed towards the south direction)
"Sure, let's go."
After ten minutes of searching they finally found the Beginner's Quest.
The NPC tells them to hunt 20 Slime tears for each of them in the Edge of the forest.
Then Kaowasabe and Zeth started heading towards where the Edge of the Forest is located.
As they arrived at entrance of the Edge of the Forest. They Immediately see alot of Slimes hopping around the grasslands.
They started discussing on how they should attack and started grabbing their Newbie Sword and began to start hunting Slimes.
Kaowasabe jumped and as he flew mid air he casted his skill "Fire slash" and aimed at the slime below the ground. Instantly killing the Slime and dropping a "Slime Tear" that they needed for their quest.
Zeth on the other hand confronted the Slime and casted his skill "Heavy Slash" Vertically slashing the slime cutting it into two pieces and immediately kills the Slime causing it to drop "Slime Tear".
Then they continued hunting the slimes to complete their quests.
After thirty minutes they finally finished hunting and successfully obtained 20pcs of Slime tears for each of them.
Then they checked their Status windows as they've reached level 7.
"The slimes really gave us alot of exp right?" As kaowasabe spoke with excitement.
"Yeah, the Slimes were level 5, Killing 20 slimes basically gave us alot of exp." As zeth replied calmly.
"Let's head back to the village and claim our rewards." Kaowasabe replied as he was smiling.
Then they headed back towards the Village NPC.
"Here is your reward for completing the quest."
NPC Gives 30 Copper coins to each of them.
Then they looked happy as they've earn 30 Coppers.
Zeth sent a friend request towards Kaowasabe so that they would be able to contact each other in game.
Kaowasabe Accept's his Friend request and Zeth was added to his friends list.
Zeth tells kaowasabe that he needs to logout now cause it's almost dinner time.
Kaowasabe looks at the time and saw it was already 7:30pm. But he remembered that he was living alone in a tiny apartment and couldn't care less about dinner time.
Zeth then bids farewell and logs out.
Meanwhile Kaowasabe who was very eager on wanting to level up and earn alot of gold coins started running around the village looking for new quests.
Then he saw an NPC near the north exit that had a Question mark above on his head.
As kaowasabe ran towards the NPC the whole game blacked out.
Then he returns to his body that was stuck inside the capsule. And he gets off the capsule and noticed that it was very dark.
And remembered that his City usually goes Black out for 3 hours.
Then he slammed his head unto the ground as he yelled.
"DAMN IT MERALCOOOOO! WHY NOW!?" (Meralco is a Company that is currently supporting all of their City's Electricity)
