MMORPG: Strongest Assassin Online

"I still don't know why we are building this project here in the newbie village"

"This is to avoid suspicious eyes, and besides only the newbie village is safe because there is no high-level player that can destroy the project"

"You are right, all of us here wouldn't be able to handle one high-level player"

"I think we should stick around, in case any player comes snooping"

"That's a good idea,"

'No one saw me so I'm safe, if I had died there that would have been my last time playing Nova Online'

Alex was currently heading back to the merchant shop to sell all the items he collected, he stopped when he remembered he hasn't checked what he got.

He quickly opened his status page and clicked on inventory and a small rift opened in his front.

[Inventory]

[Sharp wooden dagger - Common]

[Blunt dagger - Common]

[Light orb - Rare]

[Bracelet - Ordinary]

[Work clothes ×2 - Ordinary]

'I got a rare item in the newbie village, now I wished I disguised and entered the other room I would have gotten more, but at least I got a rare item'

Alex closed his inventory and continued walking towards the merchant's shop, he was going to sell everything else except the light orb and his blunt dagger.

"Maybe I should exit the newbie village, I can't find a good weapon here and I can't keep killing NPC forever" Alex mumbled.

"I would kill one last NPC to level up then I'm out of here, I can't wait to see the world outside, I hope I come across a legendary player" Alex smiled.

'I wonder what the time is in the real world, I should check, I don't think I have spent an hour here in the game'

[Help]

[Log Out]

Alex clicked on the help button, and another screen came up and Alex looked at the screen.

Different things about the game were listed, he just had to tap on the information he needs but he was looking for the time and not information, the real world time was supposed to be displayed in the help icon.

"ohh, there it is" Alex saw an icon that says real world time and touched it.

[2:00 pm]

"What!! it's already two, I started playing around 10 and now it's already 2, time runs really fast when you are playing games"

Alex used his hands to swipe the screen and the previous screen showed up, he saw another log-out button and pressed it.

[To log out, click on log out from your status page, logging out automatically saves the user data]

[Note: When in battle or during a special event, user would be unable to log out]

"Okay this is great," Alex swiped the screen twice this time and his status page came up, he clicked on the [Log out] icon and another screen appeared.

[Do you want to log out]

[Yes] or [No]

Alex clicked on yes.

[Saving game progress]

[Reaper logging out]

[Logging out in 5 seconds]

[4 seconds...]

[3 seconds...]

[2 seconds...]

[1 second...]

Alex's vision began to darken and soon he couldn't see anything, he waited for some seconds and nothing happened.

He tried to raise his hands and could feel his hands, he quickly removed the helmet from his head and he was back in his apartment.

"Wow, that was really great, now I know the reason that game is top 1"

Alex wanted to stand up from his bed when his stomach made grumbling sounds, he smiled and went to the kitchen to get something.

'I still have enough money, I should eat out, I'm really tired of cooking'

Alex looked through his window and there was no sign of the sun, the weather was slightly chilly so Alex took his jacket and set out.

His favorite restaurant was not far from his apartment so he usually eat out a lot. The street was busy with people walking around, Alex looked around and didn't see a single teenage boy.

It was weekend so at least young boys are supposed to be seen walking around but Nova Online held them back, everyone was busy finding ways to level up and get stronger.

Alex entered the restaurant and sat down on one of the chairs, before he could call for anything his phone rang in his pocket.

It was his friend Gabriel calling.

"Alex where are you?" Gabriel asked.

"I'm at a restaurant, why do you ask, are you coming over?"

"I'm already at your door, stay in the restaurant, I'm coming over," Gabriel said.

"Huh, I haven't even told you the name of the restaurant and you are coming over"

"I know where you are, you don't need to tell me"

Alex laughed before setting his phone down, he took a look at the menu before noticing someone near him, he looked up and saw a blond girl staring at him, from what she was wearing Alex knew she was a worker here.

"Can I get you anything?" the girl asked as Alex looked at her.

"What am I going to get, hmm" Alex pondered on what to eat.

'Ohh, I should wait for Gabriel so we can eat a pizza together'

"Give me a minute," Alex said to the girl.

The bell rang as someone walked into the restaurant, Alex looked at the door and saw Gabriel looking around.

"Gabriel" Alex called out.

"There you are" Gabriel walked over to where Alex was and sat I'm front of him.

"You are smiling differently today, is something wrong?" Alex asked.

"I just bought a VR helmet for Nova Online," Gabriel said in excitement.

"Really, how did you get the money for the helmet, I thought you were short on money"

"Well I bought it and now I'm really broke, I came to your house because I'm hungry but you were at a restaurant, this is fate"
