Angelic Quest [Beta].

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(A short story by Yite)

My name is Christopher Tomb and my father’s company finally finished building the first fully immersive virtual reality game device, along with their first game… Angelic Quest, a game about decisions that can decide whether you’re a villain or hero… bandit or noble, dead or alive… My friends and I are the first three to play this game… during its beta, and we were told that we can keep one thing of our choosing. 1. Our levels. 2. Our characters. Or 3. Our items… so here’s what happened during the beta!

‘’Hello there, [Christopher Tomb] I am your designated A.I, my name is Rea… pleased to meet you.’’ (Rea)

The woman said as she bowed down… she was wearing a robe… and only a robe… I didn’t really know where to look so I looked up and said.

‘’Yea… yeah, it’s nice to meet you too, can I create my character now?’’ (Christopher)

I wasn’t blushing… I WASN’T!!!! -cough-...

‘’Sure!’’ (Rea)

She said… excitedly?

‘’Okay, so what race do you want to be?’’ (Rea)

She said as a… long list of races were presented in front of me, from demi-god to… pig?

So, after what felt like several hours of scrolling through every goddamn race!, I chose the…

‘’I choose the Ancient vampire race, I want to be able to control anyone that I bite!!!’’ (Christopher)

She looked at me with a worried look and then said.

‘’Understood sir, but you do know that you will be hunted by all of the good based races and some of the neutral ones…’’ (Rea)

I simply answered with.

‘’Well, of course I do… I want a challenge!!!’’ (Christopher)

‘’Okay then sir, so what will your new name be?’’

I think for a second... I’ve got it!

‘’I’ll be known as Vladimir Bloodsoul, Vlad for my nickname please!’’ (Vlad)[Previously Christopher]

She looked at me with a… weird smile.

‘’Sir, you are aware that your name is exactly the same as the first ancient vampire, right?’’ (Rea)

Huh?

‘’Huh?, really… that’s AWESOME!!!’’ (Vlad)

I shouted as I jumped around like an excited child on christmas… that was kind of embarrassing.

‘’So, sir what class would you like?’’ (Rea)

When she said that, another long list came up… but this time it had class names such as: Warrior, Mage, Tamer and even… Demon lord?

‘’Um, Rea why is there a Demon lord class here?’’ (Vlad)

‘’Oh, well that’s because You’re in the beta so we need to make sure that some of the more powerful hidden classes work, so the developers added every class for the beta!’’ (Rea)

She said with a beautiful smile plastered on her face.

‘’Oh… cool’’ (Vlad)

I said while I was a little bit stunned by her smile.

It took another what I presume to be several hours to finally choose my class.

‘’Okay, I’ll be a Necromancer!’’ (Vlad)

‘’Very well sir, so what will your Sub-class be?’’ (Rea)

Right as she said that, the same list of classes popped up again!

‘’Fuuuuck!... fuck it, I choose Dark healer!’’ (Vlad)

I said the name of the first class I saw.

‘’Okay then, where would you like to start? And I’ll just say that I suggest going with your friends to the Tepika mountains.’’ (Rea)

‘’Drop me off at the Tepika mountains, it’ll be easier to level up if we’re together!” (Vlad)

‘’Very well sir, goodbye’’ (Rea)

She said as I started disappearing… my feet went first and then my legs, hands, arms, torso and then finally my head.

...I woke up on what I presume to be the peak of one of the Tepika mountains, I can see a small fire in the distance, I’m going to go there before I freeze to death, I walked there and I saw two people sitting by the fire.

‘’HELLO!?’’ (Vlad)

I yelled out to the people sitting by the fire.

‘’CHRIS!?, IS THAT YOU!!??’’ (???)

‘’YEAH!!!, HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME!!??’’ (Vlad)

‘’IT’S ME!!!, MIKE!!!’’ (Mike)

Oh it’s Mike, so the man next to him is.

‘’Oh hey Chris, it’s me Alex!’’ (Alex)

‘’Well, that’s pretty fucking obvious, so… what are your in game aliases’’ (Vlad)

I said to my friends Mike and Alex, and they answered with.

‘’Draco, I’m actually a Demon Lord with the race of Demon! And sub-class of Monster Tamer’’ (Draco) [Alex]

‘’Cool!, so what about you Mike?’’ (Vlad)

‘’Oh, I’m Valaris, a Snow elf with the class of Blizzard King with a sub-class of Ice wizard… so what’s your alias?’’ (Valaris) [Mike]

‘’Vlad, Ancient Vampire, Necromancer with the sub-class of Dark healer’’ (Vlad)

‘’That’s actually kind of cool… so do you sparkle in the day??’’ (Valaris)

‘’GOD NO!!!’’ (Vlad)

‘’So, do you fall in love with uninteresting women?’’ (Draco)

‘’Ha ha, very funny Draco!’’ (Vlad)

While my friends and I were joking about each other's names, we didn’t notice a pack of Ice wolves creeping up behind us, slowly.

‘’Grrr’’ (Ice wolf)

‘’OH, SHIT!!! ICE WOLVES!!!’’ (Draco)

Draco said as he grabbed his greatsword and swung it at the Ice wolves.

‘’LOOK OUT!!!”’ (Valaris)

Before an Ice wolf could bite Draco, Valaris shot it with an ice spike, while it wasn’t very effective for an attack… it was a good distraction.

‘’VALARIS!, BEHIND!!!’’ (Vlad)

I yelled out as I ran towards an Ice wolf and used my Vampiric strength and teeth to attack the Ice wolf until I successfully turned it into my own little Vampire slave, then I got a message saying:

Congratulations, Vladimir for successfully enslaving your first creature you have earned a title: Enslaver: you can enslave any race with a slightly higher chance of 5%..

And since it was a creature ten levels higher than you, you get a +10 to INT.

You can now name your enslaved creature.

Would you like to name it?

Y/N?

‘’No.’’ (Vlad)

‘’LOOK OUT VLAD!!!’’ (Draco)

When he said that, I ducked and my Ice wolf was almost killed by Draco but it also ducked.

‘’Where’d it go!?’’ (Draco)

‘’Dude, it’s my pet… slave, relax!!!’’ (Vlad)

‘’Oh… right, you can enslave enemies with your… sucking ability… pfft’’ (Draco)

And now, Draco’s laughing at his own dumbass jokes.

‘’HEY, WE STILL HAVE A FEW OF THEM HERE!!!’’ (Valaris)

He yelled as he was trying to hold off around three Ice wolves… with Ice magic, we should help him!

‘’Okay, wolf… kill them!!!’’ (Vlad)

At my command, my Ice wolf charged at its former comrades and started to viciously bite and scratch at them… I think that I may have seen a bit of Ice magic also being used by the Ice wolves.

After a while, we finally defeated the Ice wolves and I tried something out… I used necromancy on them and I got another status thing come up saying:

You have used Necromancy for the first time: Gained title: Necromancer, you will be feared more by races other than undead and undead will be more likely to like you.

You made a dead thing live again, congratulations. +10 intelligence.

I’m still not sure if the last message was an insult or not, eh I’ll just take the free points.

‘’Hey, uh Vlad… you said that you class was dark healer, right?’’ (Valaris)

Valaris asked me and when I turned to look at him, he had numerous scars all over his body.

‘’Yeah, let me just figure out how to use it…’’ (Vlad)

After a few hours of experimenting on the undead animals. I finally learned how to heal medium sized wounds, so I started to heal Valaris when Draco asked me to heal him, and after that… I could feel the world go all spinny.

The last thing I saw before I fell unconscious was:

You have depleted all of your mana, -5 intelligence

You will now go into an unconscious state for two days.

Goodnight sir~ [Rey]

‘’Huh?, Rey?’’ (Vlad)

[THUMP]
