"Honestly? I think Mana and Qi are the exact same thing." She said and I frowned.
"What does that mean?" I asked her.
"If you want me to tell you, first you need to sign a contract." She said and I raised an eyebrow "A contract?"
"That's right, if you ever tell anyone about me then your soul will be shattered." She said and I smiled.
"I will if you vow that you won't tell anyone about me," I said and she nodded.
"Fine, now that we are both in an agreement. Let's do this." She said and a paper popped out of nowhere landing in the middle of the table.
On the paper, you could see that there was something written on them in big red ink.
It said: Once someone signs this contract that person is not allowed to share the owner's secrets to anyone else in any way without his/her's notice. Failure to do so will result in the soul of the person who signed to shatter. Trying to find a loophole for this contract will also result in the should of the person who signed to shatter.
"You just need to drip some blood on it ad we are good." She said and I opened the skin in my finger to let a drop of blood come out.
The moment the blood hit the paper it glowed for a while before disappearing.
"Good, now I can tell you more." She said and I shook my head "It's your turn to vow now." I said and she let out a sigh.
"Fine." she said.
"Repeat after me...You vow to never tell anyone about my secrets in any way and if you do let the heavens shatter your soul." I said and she repeated after me and it was done.
After she said it she felt that something had affected her soul and as a soul mage she knew that there was no way to take of this chain in her soul so she frowned.

I also frowned as I looked at the screen that popped in front of me.
Queen 1/1
Both she and I frowned as the information about the privileges that the queen and the king share entered out mind.
KING: RULER FOR JUSTICE
The primary duty of a good king is to be a ruler. Being a "ruler" means two things. He must be the "ruler" who makes the "rules" those in his circle will be expected to live by. This makes him the "authority," which comes from the root word of being the "author" and originator of the "rules." However, as an authority, he must also be the "ruler" or "measuring stick" that conduct is measured by in his circle. In other words, he must be the standard or model of his rules by which everyone in his circle, including himself, will be judged as good. Therefore, whatever rules you come up with as a ruler of your circle, you must be sure to live by those same rules or you will experience inner and outer conflict with "good," that is, conflict with "god." We have all felt the offense at some time of being required to, "Do as I say, but don't do as I do." No honor can come from that rule, no honor from that kind of ruler, let alone to that kind of a ruler.
A Ruler's rules must be "just," in order for justice and peace to exist without conflict with good. "No justice" equals "no peace." Which is the same as saying, to the degree, there is no justice is the same degree there will be no peace, no harmony and "frith" within your circle or within your soul. "Just" means fair and balanced. As any parent knows, the first thing a child will raise "hue and cry" over is not being treated "fair." It is the same for our own souls. Our own souls will cry out if we do not treat ourselves with fairness and balance.
That was the first thing that entered my head or should I say my soul instead.
QUEEN: ADVOCATE OF MERCY
The above points are true for a queen as well. However, a queen in relationship to a king need not be a mere female version of a king or duplicate his efforts. She can complement the king's rules by providing the balance of mercy that a king needs for true justice.

"Rules" are mental, created in the head guided by reason. "Mercy" is emotional, inspired in the heart, guided by care. The king is the "head" of the kingdom, but the queen is the "heart" of the kingdom. Just as the husband has the role of being the head of the home, the woman has the role of being the heart of the home. The head needs the order of rules to maintain control. However, the head also needs the feelings of the heart to maintain life. Justice without mercy becomes cruel and heartless. Mercy without justice becomes permissive and chaotic. Both extremes are destructive. Therefore, they need each other for constructive life-giving balance.
That was the second thing that entered my head but that's not what made me frown. It was the third message which stunned me.
From now on, you will both know what the other one feels regardless of how far you are from each other, not only are the feelings what is going be shared but your souls will also be linked resulting in if one of you dies the other one dies with you.
The moment I got all the information from the third message my soul started to vibrate and my eyes blurred resulting me in fainting.

~Claus PoV~
I opened my eyes and saw the white ceiling in front of me, I could feel anger surge through every inch of my body, I knew that this anger didn't belong to me, never the less, the feeling of anger was there.
"Hmm..." I ponder over why I felt like this and closed my eyes thinking back to what had happened.
30 seconds.
1 minute.
3 minute.
"Oh my lord!" I jumped in fright as I recalled everything, I quickly used my Qi sense to search the place I was at and saw a familiar figure sit cross-legged few beds away from me.
I made my way towards the person sitting cross-legged and looked at her.
"What is she doing?" I mumbled as I looked at her expression, it showed a clear sign of anger and confusion and the more time that passed the angrier she became.
After a while the nurse found me and asked me why I left my room and then asked me if I was fine, I told her that I was fine but she didn't budge so she took me to the doctor and after he checked my state he said I was okay.
After I came back to Nina's room she was still the same.
The nurses came and checked her but didn't touch her, they just looked at her and asked me what she was doing, I just said "She is calming done." to them.
After 30 minutes she opened her eyes and glared at me.
"What the hell have you done!" She said and I gave her a wry smile.
I went and locked the door and got a chair and sat on it.
"It's a long story," I said and told her about my arrival to this world and I also told her about the kingdom.
Since we are both connected now there is no reason for me not to tell her, if she dies I die and if I die she dies, I don't think she will ever be my enemy at this point.
After telling her about it, she closed her eyes and thought about it for a while.
"So that's how you came here?" She said and I frowned "Is it not the same for you?" I asked her and she shook her head.
"So you didn't come here because of that person?" I asked and she shook her head again.
I frowned "Then how did you come here?" I asked her.
"I am not really sure, all I know is that I was messing with my soul trying to surpass my limits and then I suddenly found myself in this body."

The Beta Test
Our nameless narrator participates in a beta test for an early VRMMO game Meridian 60. That's not the real name but it captures the spirit of the adventure given the chronological and contextual era of the game. His character is unique and special but purely for mundane reasons and not because of any inherent or social significance. The first chapter which is mandatory to submit a story on RR serves as a bit of a prologue with some exposition, although I limited that to a reasonble level. I plan to begin releasing additional chapters starting Thursday, to align with the 48 hour submission approval process and also because I have something to do Wednesday. I haven't written anything but the summary and first chapter, nor have I plotted anything out. This is because my plan is to release roughly 34000 words a day, 10 chapters of ~12.5 pages each, for 3 days at which point the story will be complete. I'd have liked to plan for more but handling the interface tables and so forth needed for a data heavy litrpg slows down the writing process. 100k words is a bit short, a standard pre epic fantasy 300 page spec fic novel, but this is mostly a writing exercise and I am considering a longer project if I can maintain the pace. Probably do a different concept, maybe a dungeon core, over 5 days, since a 500 page novel is more common these days. Slight subversion of VRMMO stories Stat heavy/crunchy No paying your bills by gaming No out of game conspiracies No angst, interpersonal drama, or damsels/dudes in distress Schedule is 30000 words a day excepting the first chapter, a limitation of RRs fiction submission system Fantasy, high magic, male lead, no party, guild, or harem No gore, some profanity, no sexual content, and no current plans for anything traumatic
