[GAMING PROFILE HAS BEEN GENERATED]The notification came in exactly three seconds, making me calm down a little. To say I was nervous at this moment was an understatement. I was literally freaking out like the newbie I was. Despite being a level twenty player I had no experience in virtual reality. So I was literally a beginner down here.[YOU CAN EDIT PERSONAL PROFILE ONCE][PLAYER NAME: JASON LEWIS][GAMING PERSONALITY: GOD OF COPYCATS][AGE: 26][LEVEL: 20][SKILLS: WILL BE SUBJECT TO CHANGE IMMEDIATELY][WEAPON: SWORD OF THOR (BROKEN)]"Hmm..." I placed my right hand under my chin. "I think I will have to change my name and age to match that of my gaming avatar."After saying that I did a face palm, "This is my gaming avatar already. My real body is in the real world. This gaming avatar should be my mind.""Uh...I think I will go with Reverend Insanity," I said as I nodded. I took that name from the awesome novel which I'd read once. It was titled Reverend Insanity and the protag
I stared at the dragon which towered over me, its eyes glaring at me in rage as it breathed fire from its nostrils. It growled deeply as it looked down on me and I could tell it was definitely thinking of a million ways to crush me right now. I wasn't surprised at all. It was natural for a gigantic creature like it to look down on all of its prey. But what nobody knew was that this dragon and I were at the same player level. The difference between us was just our size and attack potency."What the...""What has he gotten himself into? Now he's gonna be killed!""This wasn't supposed to happen! We were trying to lure the dragon away and he came.""What are we gonna do now? He's gonna really mess up our plans right now!"As I stood facing the dragon I could hear the other players talking to themselves. Obviously, they had teamed up to defeat the player controlling the dragon or even kill him. And from the looks of things, the man really deserved it. He was a tyrant and needed to be deal
I immediately activated my Healing skill as I rolled away from the tail of the dragon lashing at me. I saw it hit the ground, shattering the concrete into several fragments. I rolled further away as I healed rapidly in order to prevent myself from being smashed by the concrete which was flying in my direction. I watched as they all crashed into the ground and shattered into smithereens. At that time I was panting heavily but due to my Healing skill, I gradually began to breathe normally."You should have stayed far away when you had the chance!" the man who had tamed the dragon said. "At least you would have survived for some time till I met you in the future..."As I listened to the man, I saw the dragon roar so loudly that the entire surrounding shook very violently as if the whole place would crumble."But now you're gonna die and I'm gonna get my reward!" the man clenched his fists happily. "Too bad absorbing levels of a deceased player has been banned." Has it been banned? I cou
After removing the Lightning skill I had an empty slot to copy another skill. And the skill I was going to copy was the Dragon's Fire skill. This was because it was the most lethal skill of the dragon which it used frequently against me."You must be nuts thinking you can dodge forever!" the player who had tamed the dragon yelled in provocation."No one has been able to fight my dragon for so long!" the man continued. "This is because the more you fight, the more it becomes stronger with rage!"I couldn't help but scoff as I moved swiftly, dodging more fireballs. I curled my lips into a warm smile as I stopped underneath the dragon. I had finally copied the Dragon's Fire skill and I felt so good about it. Now it was the time to show these players that I couldn't be messed with at all. This was because I was more powerful than all of them!"Complete Arsenal!" I yelled as clenched my fists, my eyes turning bluish in color as a blue aura surged from my entire body. My Complete Arsenal sk
I wasn't too happy after killing the dragon. This was because I still had the beast tamer to face and I didn't know what level he was. Without defeating him right now my mission wasn't yet complete. And if I couldn't find a way to defeat him in three minutes then I would fail my mission and lose the promising reward to upgrade my damaged Sword of Thor which was even now lower than a level ten mythical item. I didn't want to fail this mission so I made up my mind to finish this.The beast tamer gradually stood up from the car in which he was seated in, his fists clenching tightly as he glared at me. It was like the only thing he had in his mind was killing me. Well, I didn't blame him. After all, I was the one who had killed his favorite pet, the level twenty dragon which had been causing havoc just now.His eyes became very red as he said, "I'm gonna kill you for what you've done right now!""Let me see you try that," I said calmly as my lips curled up into a taunting smile. "There's
The beast tamer's glare became deeper as he opened his clenched fists, revealing a set of sharp long claws which looked capable of tearing through metals. I couldn't help but shudder from the thought of being sliced through by those sets of claws. Even if I could heal and also resurrect I wasn't going to allow myself to go through such an experience. It would be really daunting for me."You made a very grave mistake by deciding to kill my pet," he said and I could swear I saw a forked tongue slither within his mouth. It resembled those tongues reptiles possessed.He then controlled a vine to wrap around him gently and lift him into the air as he continued to glare at me, "That pet was the only friend I had and now you've taken it away from me."Amidst bone cracking, I gnashed my teeth and said, "You're such an idiot if you think you can defeat me."This obviously angered the beast tamer as he caused more vines to wrap around every part of my body, squeezing the life out of me. This ma
"Hey!""Wake up right now!""Is he dead?""Stop wishing him death!""Just asking."The voices which I was hearing appeared distant yet they were so close. It seemed my senses had been blurred or I was existing in a hazy world. I didn't know if I was dead or in the data state where I would be respawning after some time but the experience didn't seem good at all."Let's not allow him to die, he helped us a lot!""We would have taken care of ourselves.""Don't be so cold hearted, John. You were running as a coward when he asked us to flee.""Everyone would have done the same."These voices kept on becoming ethereal and I didn't know what was happening. Where was I? Was I dying? I was capable of thinking in my state but I wasn't capable of sensing anything clearly. I could only hear voices but they sounded very distant."I can't die..." I parted my lips to finally say something. It was as if a kind of weight had been placed on my lips to prevent me from saying anything. I was glad that I
I couldn't help but want to shake my head for these four players. This was because they were very much ignorant about player levels. They were definitely thinking I was very powerful and that was because they had only come across level twenty players and a dragon. They didn't know that there were also level fifty players who could crush all of us combined with only their auras. I felt very sad for the team because of this and even wanted to sympathize with them.I had once been in their shoes when I first became a player. Back then I was a level zero player and always thought I was the strongest because I was the only player back then. After becoming a level one player and attempting to break out of the police headquarters, I realized that I was very much wrong. It was there I met Darwin Blade and knew that I was still very weak.No matter how one became powerful at this level, there was someone always more powerful than him. Till he could outgrow everyone and stand at the pinnacle of
