“Homework check… Notebook check… lunch box check… Well then… I’m going off!”

She wore her uniform and went to school.

In these few days, the sunlight had gone stronger and the warm sunshine feels good. It can be said spring has finally come.

Kaede’s seat was by the window so if she let her guard down she might fall asleep. If it goes like this, Yuki who was two seats apart will be on a sleeping course in the afternoon class.

And while thinking of that, Kaede was walking on the road to school. Kaede’s house is near the school. So she comes to school be a walk. That distance is only five minutes walk.

The pleasant wind was blowing, and it is not a bother to walk. Because she didn’t suffer from hay fever, Kaede liked to walk during this season.

“Yosh! Let's do our best today~”

Passing through the gate, went toward her classroom and she arrived at her seat.

After this, she would have started reading books, but when she started Fantasy world online, it was time to think of new skills. If there was this kind of skill, what are the requirements to get it, just thinking about things like that, she was having fun.

“I wonder what are you grinning at… You look crazy. If your smile is not cute people will think that you started to lose your mind.”

Head chop to Kaede’s head. The girl who gives Kaede a chop on her head was her friend Yuki. Honjou Yuki.

“I-It’s nothing at all.”

“Really~ Oh, that’s right. I didn’t come for that today. By the way, Kaede. I have a very important announcement today.”

Saying that Yuki bent her waist and swiftly approached her face. Clearing her throat, and went on her way of saying it, to Yuki who made a mystery character, Kaede also went with that.

“What is it, Yuki? Your tension is quite high today.”

“Right, that’s right, you wouldn’t believe it! It was because of the permission to play a game. I got it today!”

Kaede was happy and clapped lightly.

She probably did her best in studying, Kaede knew how happy she was, And only seeing her expression Kaede also became happy.

“With that, the game that I only pushed on to Kaede. I can finally play it from today.”

“Then, we can be at the party right!”

“Um… Yeah yeah… A party… I mean, did Kaede already start playing?!”

It looks like Yuki was surprised, and said that in loud voice. These two go to school early there are only two of them in the classroom. They didn’t need to care about their surroundings.

“Eh… Hehehehehe...”

“That Kaede, that Kade that reluctantly plays with me on the game that I pushed on her…”

“You knew you were pushing them on me?”

“I’m so happy~ I thought that playing together was impossible, but to think Kade was willing to play…”

And then, Yuki continues to talk.

“Up to what level did you raise it? Or did you only make an account?”

“Hmm… I’m in level 20.”

Yuki was astonished in an instant, but as soon as she understood what Kaede said, she started grinning.

“Ohhh~ It looks like Kaede was more addicted than I had expected.”

“What is that supposed to mean.”

Kaede was glaring at Yuki while blushing. Yuki was still laughing merrily, but it was not like she had bad intentions, so Kede didn’t say anything.

“Ahahaha… Sorry, I’m sorry, it’s just a joke, but if you had leveled it that much, then your character build has been decided right?”

“Yeah, I’m a full sword user build. And then… It’s my secret but maybe I can tell you because you're my friend.”

Kaede talked about everything about her skills and status with Yuki.

It results in Yuki stepping back in shock. She was so staggered and surprised that Kaede that rarely played anything was that strong.

“What is with that monster Character? I don’t really expect too much that’s why I give you some guidance in starting the game. Hearing it makes me feel more excited to start the game. The direction Kaede play is very different from the other players I see.”

“Please don’t call my character a monster. I know how to find my skills. You can do the same thing…”

When Kaede said that, Yuki crossed her arms in front of her chest, making a cross sign, and shook her head.

“Kaede is Kaede. I am me… I don’t mean to brush off the skills that Kaede told me as a friend! Well, I’ll use it as a hint on getting strong skills through. Let's keep that as it couldn't be helped.”

“Then, what will Yuki do?”

“Kaede is a DPS specialized in using swords. So I thought maybe I’ll become a magic user. That would be great, but if I paired with Kaede with that. It feels very normal. I don’t like playing that way. I wanted to become a DPS player like you.”

“If you did that then our party is only good in dealing damage. That’s unbalanced.”

“That’s true, but I want to deal damage too…”

Groaning while thinking. Yuki takes her time to think about what class she’s going to be in. After a few minutes, She grinned.

“I decide! I will become an Assassin type of thief type. Someone with high AGI stats.”

“Are you planning on being a criminal? Assassin and Thief are both bad you know.”

“Only in the game! Only in the game! Also, Assassin and Thief types are common in RPGs. Having high agility. I’ll make the enemy attack focus on me, and I’ll nullify their attacks by dodging them. No matter how strong an attack was as long as I can dodge it. It’s no use on me.”

“So cool! I know evasion. I can also do such a thing but only in few times. I still can’t run or move fast like the other players.”

“A party with Kaede, whatever fight it is, let go and crushed them all! We’re always unscathed! How is that? Isn’t that cool?”

Hearing those words, Kaede imagined that scene and swung her head vertically. She was so excited even her arms are flapping.

“I want to make a party with that concept so I will aim for the agility type.”

“Do your best! I’ll just increase my strength more!”

And, with promising to play together tonight, the two conversations ended. Yuki also went back to her seat.

“Agility type player… the difficulty is the highest level, but that's why I get fired up!”

She mumbled that with a small voice, so it didn’t reach Kaede’s ears.

It was probably the nature of the gamer. Yuki is no ordinary player, to begin with. She already became the champion in the RPG games she played before. She has lots of experience and knows how RPG works better than most of the players.

Yuki tends to prepare to select difficult achievement requirements.

As Yuki said earlier, to achieve an undefeated unscathed party, the first prerequisite is for Yuki to consciously dodge enemy attacks.

Magic that is shot multiple times. High-speed combination attack. Dodging those with a very fine line and defeating the enemy, just imagining doing that.

“I get shivers in my spine…”

Yuki couldn’t help but pray for today's class to end very quickly. So that she can play the game to her heart's content.

Harusaki

To think That I'm able to publish a new project is a miracle. This is a VRMMORPG novel inspired by the anime and an RPG game I'm playing right now. I don't really understand what a system genre means. So I created a novel where everything was related to the system. Game system to be exact. Please enjoy the light-hearted adventure of Kaede in this novel. I hope you like it. See you again!

    “So colorful and quite big for a starter town I should say. I ner expect to see this kind of town.”Yuki looked around and raised a voice happily. Looking at Yuki herself at the start of the game, she thought about it nostalgically.They both used the name in real life in the game. So that they can avoid confusion in calling each other. Yuki also doesn’t have anything on her mind, to begin with.Previously the other game, Yuki played before. Yuki used a name like Snow because Yuki means snow when translated into English.

There Yuki is already waiting for her.“What happened to you? You’ve not logged in for three days already.”“Sorry, but I got a lower grade on our last exam in math. Our teacher has her eyes on me. I got to study a lot and retake the exam.”“Well, that can’t be helped.”Looking closely at Yuki. Kaede noticed something different. Yuki is currently wearing a different armor from before. It’s not a unique series type of armor but it looks good on Yuki.“Oh… Did you notice? This is my new armor. It's armor I buy in the armor shop. It's not as great as yours but this will do for now.”“I remember, you did fight the underground dungeon. What happened? Did you defeat it?

    Today was the day when the students go into a gymnasium to practice their physical body with physical sports. Kaede and Yuki were currently standing on opposite sides of the table tennis. Chatting while they are playing.“That was fun… yesterday.”“Too bad we didn’t get any unique series type of equipment.”“According to the game, a rare drop and only a few monsters in the game has it. Speaking of drops I give them to the smithing store in the starting town. The owner seems to know you and asked about you.”“I also give her money and materials to make me a new sword.

I’m scared I might injure you.” “This is just you know… Well, I will still feel some pain from your attack. But it’s not that severe. The maximum level of pain that can be felt in this game is like the maximum punch of a first grader student.” Yuki opened a panel and search for the news for the next event. She then showed it to Kaede. “Look, the next event is decided.” “Hunting event? What kind of event is that?” Yuki then read through the description. After reading she made a sigh of relief. She was happy that She and Kaede will never gonna exchange fists in the next battle event. She then explains the event to Kaede. “The next event is about hunting monsters…” “A special event monster will be scattered on a giant map with different kinds of

    “Arrived!” “let's not waste time and enter right away!” In front, there is the entrance of the stone ruins. If the information they saw in the adventurer bulletin was correct, This should be the dungeon connecting to floor 2. Kaede, in the land, walked in the pah. Just holding her sword while she is walking. With that her preparation for the monster attack was perfect. After walking just like that, they encountered a monster. What appeared in front of the, was boar that was a little huge compared to a real-life one. “Wind cutter!” Yuki took the first move and shot magic. But that attack only decreases its health bar by 20%. “The power decreased a lot. I think I should raise my status debuff skill…” While she was saying that, the boar regains its posture and charged again. It was colliding toward Kaede with a lot of momentum. It was devoured by Kaede’s sword. “Can I count on you during fights with the boar?” “Okay!” Because the path was narrow, the boar charging was suicida

    Kaede and Yuki started their activities in a new base town on floor 2, but Kaede was groaning with a dark face. The reason for this was the game maintenance.“I didn’t think that there would be a game maintenance days before the next event.”The two girls logged in immediately as soon as the maintenance ended. But they were stunned by the contents of the maintenance.Mainly, Kaede.The contents of the maintenance were about nerfing some skills and buffing the Artificial intelligence monsters. The target skill name, in the settings of the game, was not cleared, so only those who have them knew it. Some things changed.The implementation of attack damage and damage reduction. There are three to five kinds of skills per weapon. Its attack was very decent. The problem was the skills.Kaede looks at it like she was nerfed in the game on purpose.“Don’t make that face… That happened all the time for somebody who stands out too much.”Yuki put her hand on Kaede’s shoulder.There are mainly t

    All the players that want to participate in the event were transported on a special map. A huge map consisting of many different dungeon bosses and terrains.The two girls Kaede and Yuki were transported to a rocky mountain area. Before the event started each player was given a map that pinpoints all the dungeons to capture. Each monster was divided into different points. The normal monster was 10 points. High-level monsters were 100 points and dungeon boss monster was 1000 points. Players who give the most points will be the winner of the event.“I’m sorry Yuki I can’t move faster than this.”Kaede apologetically said to Yuki. Yuki just made a sigh and look around the area.“Don’t worry about it it’s not that important. The speed of this event was different from the game's normal speed. We’re currently moving is super high speed. Three days in this event is just 2 hours in the real world. We have too much time to think about things.”“But I’m not moving as fast as you.”“That’s norma

    “I wanted to show off this skill to you as our last resort, but this time is special I have no other choice…”Kaede muttered and then chant the skill.“Smokescreen!”A dense amount of black smoke was released from Kaede’s body. The smoke spreads and covers the sniper's vision.“Blocking my vision to escape my bullets… An ordinary sniper will give up in this situation. Thank goodness that I’m not ordinary…”The sniper player said and stood up from her hiding spot. Using a skill called “Hopper” she was able to plate a platform that can make her jumper higher than normal.The sniper player hops on it. In a few seconds, she was then blasted toward the sky.Making a wide field of vision she looks thoroughly around the area where she last shot Kaede. Turning her head around she saw Yuki with Kaede on her back running away at high speed.“... Rabbits are not getting away.”After securing Kaede’s location, she lifted her sniper and targeted Kaede’s head this time.Kaede noticed the gleam of l

Darma, popular boys, actors, actresses, the most handsome school, and more. I laugh about it because I barely know anything about what they're talking about. “Kaede, there is a rumor that a hot guy in the second year really likes you.” “Gosh, nothing like that is happening in my life,” I replied to my classmate, who I don’t know.
