In the scorching daylight, a handsome young man with black hair had just removed a game helmet from his head. Because he had been playing for too long, his body felt a little stiff and his stomach continued to sound from hunger.
Before Rein did his daily routine, he stretched his body first and then cleaned his bed that was already very messy.
Tonet tonet! Tonet tonet!
When he finished, he suddenly heard a phone call from his phone. Rein immediately picked up the phone and picked it up.
"Hello with Rein here." Rein called while walking to the kitchen.
"Yo Rein, how are you?" The voice of the young man sounded from his cell phone.
"Ohh.. I know, who else if not the Grey genius, I'm pretty good news then what about you?" Rein slightly smiled when he heard the voice of his old friend.
"Damn it, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for 1 month more, but why don't you come too!?"
"... Hey Grey, didn't I tell you I'd focus on the game if my 6 months of training were over?"
"That must be just your excuse for fear of losing to me, right? Come on, when are you going back to the dojo?"
Rein who was carrying his plate to the dining table stopped when he heard his friend pleading.
"Grey, if you really want to find a strong competitor or maybe even stronger than you, I suggest you join the game Exaworld Online..."
"Come on Rein, it's just a game! Don't compare that shit to a real battle!"
Grey interrupted Rein's remark, and of course it irritated Rein. Without hesitation, he immediately decided on his call.
"Basic fool..." Rein murmured softly and then resumed his routine.
Grey is his friend and martial arts instructor. He has a good nature and is also full of justice. But because of his stubbornness, Rein is often annoyed with him.
"Forget it, I'd better get some information about the Karade Kingdom." Rein turned on the television and ate his food.
When the screen is turned on, the Exaworld Online logo immediately fills the screen indicating that the broadcast has just begun. Rein smiled happily, this is a channel that discusses the game information directly.
"Hello viewers, come back again with us on Exa Live! Today I Rena and Jim will accompany you for the next 3 hours..."
Rein's eyes instantly sparkled upon seeing what was behind Rena and Jim, it was the Royal Palace of Karade! Who would have thought he would get the information so soon.
"Maybe you all already know what we will discuss after seeing the Karade Kingdom palace that is right behind us."
Rena pointed the camera at the gate of the royal palace, then not long later saw dozens of soldiers with red armor were guarding the palace very tight.
"Truely, we will discuss the destruction caused by a player against the Kingdom! What do you think of this situation Jim?" Rena looked at Jim who was next to her.
"I think this situation is very strange. We already know that the culprit is a player named NieR, but didn't we already discuss this player a week ago for breaking the dungeon record? Is it possible that a small level player can do all this?" Jim's face looked incredulous, even Rena who was next to him kept nodding.
Jim paused for a moment and nodded, "You're right Rena, this NieR player is so mysterious, twice he's made such a big furore, but why doesn't the world still know about his whereabouts?"
Rein who heard the compliment his chest immediately puffed up, although he was famous, his existence was completely unknown to the public. His struggles in keeping a low profile have paid off.
"Heheheh, mysterious player? It can be called." Rein smiled proudly, then went back to watching television.
"But you don't need to be curious about the viewers anymore, because we have had eyewitnesses who have met and even befriended NieR! Are you curious? Then let's welcome, Magician Kei!"
Rena pointed to the side then not long after a black-haired young man walked towards her.
"What's!? That idiot, why is he there!?" Rein was surprised not to play, he did not expect a fool like Kei would appear on a famous broadcast like Exa Live.
"Hello everyone, introduce my name Kei, and I am a close friend of NieR in the game." Kei smiled and showed the hologram of his friendship to the camera.
"If you still don't believe me, you can see this." This time Kei showed all his messages to the camera.
Rena and Jim nodded in satisfaction when they saw Kei's confidence in speaking. But unlike Rein, he was so shocked that his mouth opened wide when he saw Kei's behavior that was very different from usual.
"Hahahaha, I'll tell you directly about the physical characteristics of NieR. First of all, he's an uncle-uncle with gray hair, maybe if you see uncles with gray hair, you can hit him to see his status." Kei smiled cheerfully then raised his thumb to the camera.
"Ohh, the second one, he was carrying a black sling bag. I know there's a terrible weapon he used to slay his enemies. Remember, Nier was so cunning, he would use every means to get his enemy to die." Kei continued speaking by closing his eyes and continuing to nod, he looked like he was recalling his old memories with NieR in the past.
"I get it, so Nier's a guy like that huh..." Rena looks disbelieving, but inevitably she has to agree because only Kei has ever seen NieR.
"Wait, that's not all. Nier also has a mysterious black light on his head and if you look directly at that black light, you'll definitely die." Kei's face looked serious as if he had experienced the incident.
Rena and Jim shuddered, "Is Nier really that strong?" Ask Rena with a soft look.
"If he wasn't that strong, how could he possibly slaughter and destroy this Kingdom in an instant." Kei narrowed his eyes towards Rena. And that made Rena scared.
"Thank you for Kei's information, we'll continue this broadcast after the following ad." Jim said as he patted Kei's shoulder, he wanted to melt this already very tense atmosphere.
"Ohh.. Sure, but where's my money? Didn't you promise to give me money after this?" Before the advertisement started, Kei suddenly spoke like that.
"Anu.. I'm sorry Kei, the payment will be made after the broadcast ends." Jim was embarrassed, this is the first time anyone has asked for money on camera.
"Hm... All right, then." Kei turned around then not long after the broadcast ended.
Rein who was watching the broadcast looked so shocked that he made his body tremble, he did not expect Kei to deliver such a lie in public.
Uncle grey? Close friend? Mysterious black light? It was a lie that Kei created just to earn a lot of money.
"That damn thing, he just destroyed my reputation right!?"
Rein was speechless, Kei's stupidity was crazier than he thought.
