The Heretic Chef: Exaworld Online

Exaworld Online's

november 01, 2068

On this day Exaworld Online gaming equipment is officially released. The first MMORPG game in the world to use Virtual-Reality Full Dive technology.

Exaworld is said to be the new breakthrough game in this era. Wh why? This game can even imitate the laws of earth physics!

"God has created a second world!"

That is the answer of Beta tester and the reviewers of the game after playing this game.

This system was developed by Exaworld company in Japan with the help of scientists from various other countries and of course after 15 years of research and 1 year of beta they finally developed this magical technology.

After 15 years of waiting, the game has finally been officially released!

In the quiet classroom two men were watching the news and the fat man asked excitedly.

"Rein, did you hear! .. We can finally play that game!"

"Of course I know! After 15 years we're waiting finally hahaha..." Rein replied happily while paying attention to the news on Rudi's laptop.

"So how fat? are we going to buy that game today?" Rein patted Rudi on the shoulder with a big smile on his face.

"Yes, it would be better if we directly bought it. Uh.. wait a minute... Rein!... See price!!"

Rein who was tidying his book gasped in shock with Rudi's sudden scream.

"What's wrong, why do you always surprise me?" Rein calmed herself down and then saw what Rudi was paying attention to.

"...this is impossible right? What the fuck is this! How could they raise the price to 20 million rupiahs!?" Rein was astonished by the price increase that was 2 times higher than the original price.

Rein immediately grabbed the phone in his pocket and started typing quickly, instantly his face turned grim.

"Dam... I only have 15 million rupiah... What am I supposed to do with 5 million more?"

"Umm. I can help you a little, but if it's 5 million, I don't have it."

Rudi said awkwardly, he really wanted to help his friend but his own situation was also quite difficult.

"Hufts... No, I just have to work again. Fat try to see again is there any other info?"

"OK." Rudi immediately played his mouse quickly and looked at all the information available.

"Rein see this, here it says the server will be opened on January 1, 2069 and then for 1 year will be exempt from monthly fees."

"Hmm, so there's still 1 month left before the server opens.. Fat how much does it cost per month?"

"500,000 rupiah per month."

"Eh Crazy! that's almost half of my team's salary!" Rein complained and his forehead grew increasingly wrinkled to hear what Rudi said.

"Fatty.I'm sorry, if my calculations are correct it looks like I can only play in July..."

"It's fine, we'll keep waiting for you until you can play it," Rudi patted Rein on the shoulder to encourage him, "Then I'll get ready to buy the equipment, see Rein."

Rudi tidied up his book and left the class leaving Rein alone.

"Well, why is my day so bad..."

Rein leaned back while staring blankly at the blackboard that was in front of him.

Rein, an 18-year-old young man with white skin with black hair and eyes, was like any other normal man.

He was a very smart student with a strong memory. But his fate could be said to be less fortunate.

Ampas farmer. Yeah, that's what Rein calls in-game because his bad luck is like shit. There was a time when he wanted to prove that he must have been lucky by doing 1000x gacha in the game, but the results were very disappointing because all he got was rubbish. Perhaps she was just unlucky or had already been cursed by the goddess of luck.

"Sialll! .. I'd better just go home."

Rein's face looks sad because he really wants to play the game, even he is willing to work part time for 2 years more to buy it.

Rein tidied up his book then walked out of the classroom. His house is quite close to the campus, with only 15 minutes he has arrived at his house.

At home, Rein lives alone with his younger sister, while his father and mother are rarely at home due to work.

Rein's family was quite enough, at least enough to finance Rein's college and school for his sister. They are a harmonious family.

"I'm home."

Looking at the quiet and silent atmosphere of the house Rein let out a long sigh,

'Looks like my little brother hasn't come home yet.'

Rein walked slowly towards his room after until he immediately jumped onto the bed. After a few minutes of rest he got up and walked to his computer.

"So, what am I going to do in a few months. If I'm 6 months late wouldn't I be far behind?"

Rein sighed while scratching his head. 6 months is not a short time for game players especially if it is a mmorpg type game, if the entire map has been mastered by old players especially what can be obtained by him?

"Virtual reality yes, although I have never played it but it is said to be a place where one can move their body as in real life..."

"It seems that I have to follow various martial arts to get used to the fight, as well as increase my intuition and reflexes..."

Rein stroked his chin while thinking.

"All right, I've decided!"

The morning had come with a ray of light that pierced through the window curtain hitting the body of a sleeping man.

The man was Rein who was now sleeping soundly on his bed, and not long after he heard a familiar voice in his ear.

"sister... Older brother... Come awake... Why is it always so hard to build."

The younger brother shook Rein's body to wake up from his sleep, but Rein was still fast asleep which made the younger brother feel a little upset.

"Hm.. Just sec. Wait 5 more minutes." Rein said as he yawned and then resumed his sleep.

"Sister!, it's 10 in the morning and you're still sleeping!?"

"What?, it's only 10 in the morning? it's still time to sleep!" Rein replied casually with his eyes still closed.

"Sister, have you forgotten what day it is?"

"Sunday, right?"

The little sister was upset and clenched her right hand...

Tokks!

"Ohhh..."

That fist landed right on Rein's forehead, he immediately woke up and saw his sister who was still raising her right hand.

"A-What? Remi why did you hit me!?" Rein held onto his forehead with both hands, his once sleepy eyes were now wide open.

With a bit of annoyance Remi stroked his fist,

"Hohoho, brother, it looks like your head needs a few more shakes."

"No, I remember I remember. You want to go to the ka- salon"

Before Rein finished his words a fist rummy flew towards Rein's head.

Pakkk!

Rein was hit again, but this time he managed to catch her. Naturally, what kind of man falls 2 times on the same hole. Of course Rein was prepared.

"Sana get ready! we have to go shopping." Remi was upset and left Rein.

"Yes, go I want to take a shower!" Rein shouted towards Remi who had left him then he was pensive.

"Where did my cute little brother go. Is he in his time?" He mumbled and shook his head and went to prepare.

Today is the day Rein's parents return. When they work usually go home once every 2 weeks. Rein's parents worked at a private company in a neighboring town, so they rarely went home.

After preparing, Rein saw Remi waiting in the living room while watching television.

"Again Exaworld Online. Don't they have any other news, why on all channels discuss this game." Remi grumbled while changing television channels.

"Hmm? Why are you disturbed?" Rein walked up to him.

"Obviously, just look at everything about gaming, don't they pay attention to their future?"

Rein was surprised by Remi's words, though,

"Remi, have you ever played a console game or an online game?"

"The game? Haven't yet... But what's the point of playing games? it has no benefit for our future. We better just go." Remi turned off the television and left.

Naturally Remi is so, he is an exemplary student and his ranking is always top in school, he often follows school activities and never seen playing games though. In his spare time he only studied and read.

"Come on, let's go.."

Rein walked up and turned on his motorcycle.

"Oh yeah Remi, you know where the martial arts are around here?"

"I know, do you want to join the martial arts?"

"Hehe, of course, practiced martial arts to avoid your shakes every morning."

"Basic... Then next time I'll just use ice water?" Remi gave a sweet smile to her brother.

"Ehh!?"
