VRMMO | Terris Story: Someone "Them"

05:A.Quest, Alice Nightmare

"Umk. . ." Linnea woke up in her capsule, a little difficulty to get up. And for no apparent reason, the girl found all over her body sweating coldly.

. . ?

'Uuh. . .' Alice ended up groaning.

Rise up seated, Linnea's mind fell in astonishment. His body movements felt a little stiff and strange. A false sense of pain and soreness but not real appears.

Looking back, after the two had performed a Duel that Linnea had ended up winning, Alice was forced to do a live exercise that Bill supervised.

No, torture under the guise of exercise may be more appropriate.

"So. . ." thought Linnea, second-guessing the cause.

Terris: Limitless is a game with a terrifying level of reality. And that includes the pain of being recreated. However, because of that Linnea experienced this incident. Easily, the strange situation that the girl's body felt was the result of what Alice had experienced.

Even if Linnea did not feel it in the game, since both of them were one in the real world, the pain felt would be passed directly to her body in the form of signals to the brain. Plus himself not aware of the pain, the pseudo-sensation finally appeared in a strange way.

"Side effect, is it?" murmured Linnea, sighing. Her hand moved to the part where Alice was exposed to the shield.

'Try talking about this with the Doctor.' suggested Alice.

"Yes. . ."

Inevitably, the two thought little of the phenomenon they were experiencing. Worried about the consequences that will come with time.

Feeling well rested, Linnea went to clean her body that was filled with sweat.

"Fuaah. . , it was exhausting. . ." said Linnea, yawning in a warm bath.

'Don't sleep here!' alice shouted to remind him.

"Uuh, I know, Alice" said the girl lazily.

Indeed, when playing the body of the girl entered a passive state. Both are mentally awake. Therefore, the fatigue that Linnea was experiencing was unavoidable.

Coming out of the bathroom, his blue eyes soon found something that should not be on his computer desk, complete with a paper;

Your sister said you haven't had dinner yet, so I brought some food.

Good thing Luna checked you out. . . Substantial. At least take good care of yourself.

Do you want me to be angry again?

But yeah, is the game fun? Hope you like it!

Lia~♥

"Alice. . , what time, what time. . . 00.46. . !" the girl suddenly widened her eyes and screamed a little.

What the fuck. . ? he thought, not believing.

'We're too late, aren't we?' alice said innocently.

". . . This, because of your practice quest, right?" reply Linnea flatly.

'U-ugh, don't remind me of that!' he shouted with a trembling voice.

Alice felt her own body. Unfortunately, the first thing the girl experienced was the merciless torment of pain. It ended up giving him a mild trauma. And because of that, he wanted to forget as much as possible.

Turning in white pajamas, the girl sat down and ate the food that Doctor Lia had brought. How else would you like? His stomach was completely empty and growled like a savage beast. He himself thanks for that.

"That's fun, huh?" linnea murmured interrupted her dinner. He again imagined what he had experienced in Terris.

Feeling the new world freely gives him a unique feeling that is difficult to understand. And Linnea liked that feeling.

'Uuh, it's a nightmare.' said Alice reluctantly, who was met with a small laugh by Linnea. 'Not funny Linnea!'

After all, the figure of Bill training Alice was a one hundred and eighty degree transformation from what the Halfling had previously shown. The crisp laughter from him now sounded somewhat like a thunderous demonic laughter, accompanied by a lightning strike as Background. Linnea also thought it would be perfect if everything was housed in an old castle.

'And what about that brainless Quest?!' alice Protest.

"Hihi— Uhuk—! Uhuk-uhuk!" failing to hold back her laughter, Linnea ended up choking on her own food —so spicy it burned her throat.

Recalling the Quest panel that appeared, Linnea immediately agreed if it was 'brainless';

...[.Quest]...

...————...

Anyone would protest if they were in Alice's position. Forget about the gift that looks stingy, the three-day deadline looks absurd. And coupled with the fact that Alice did not have the required skills at all, it finally made this Quest even more unreasonable. After all, how the Quest was given to a beginner like Alice still made Linnea confused. And still with the fact that Alice could not refuse the Quest.

Turning to see the punishment that was obtained if it failed, Alice said in an annoyed tone. 'Huh! If I make it, I don't want to go to that place anymore. Forever!'

"Forever. . ?"

'Yes, forever!' alice said, insisting on her decision.

But on the other hand, the one-level deduction penalty made the two of them immediately filled with curiosity.

Negative level?

They will not know before they experience it themselves.

But on the other hand, Linnea was more willing to avoid it. Quite risky and may make the character belonging to Alice damaged which is not comparable to the curiosity of the two.

And of course Linnea did not want to go back alone like before. Therefore, Alice began desperately trying to complete her Quest despite her inhumane predicament.

Finishing his missed dinner, Linnea was soon defeated by drowsiness. He moved and dropped his little body on the bed.

"Night, Alice" said Linnea, who then slept in her bed like a dead man.

'Night. . , Linnea.' she replied.

———

The next morning, Linnea stood in front of the bathroom glass while brushing her teeth, half sleepy. His consciousness had not fully recovered until it almost made him hit the glass.

He can't sleep well.

The problem was in his dream last night;

Linnea found herself turning into Alice, who was doing the exercises. Worse in the dream, Bill has horns and a whip in his hand. Laugh like the main Villain a cliche story. A perfect embodiment of Alice's fearful shadow.

Why should it be. . ? thought Linnea while shuddering in horror.

. . .

Unfortunately, Lia would not want to laugh at what they were going through.

". . . Evil."

"Huhu, sorry. But it's too silly, you know?" lia said while wiping her tears slightly out from laughing.

"Muu. . , but the pain. . ?"

Lia slowly changed the look on her face and smiled casually. "On that, you guys just calm down. This is the first time you've tried VR Dive. And, the matter of that Quest, isn't it three days of real time? That's the same eighteen-day game, right?"

"Ah. . , so?" noticing it, Linnea showed a faint expression of relief.

What Lia said was the truth. There is a considerable time difference between the world of Terris and the real world. To put it simply, one real day would be like six Terris days. The Macovic that Lia created was able to make that possible by integrating it on a VR device. Accelerate the time of the virtual world using Super Computer.

"But it's still a brainless Quest to know!"

Once again, the two laughed at Alice's complaint. And of course, being laughed at in the midst of her misery made Alice so upset.

However, this was something that the girl had lost.

When was the last time he laughed like this? It's been a long time. . , huh? alice thought to her frustration.

Perhaps, if Alice had her own body at this time, she would show a warm, charming smile.

Because in the end, the time inside the girl had already returned.
