Linkle Black-Fox

Chapter 2

When Link opened his eyes, he found himself in a strange room, enclosed by an enormous transparent dome with stars visible far in the distance.

"Welcome to the world of Gaia. Let's start by creating the avatar you'll inhabit." A beautiful goddess standing before Link spoke, reeling his attention from looking at the scenery. 

This Goddess wasn't like the ones Link had seen in anime and manga. Most goddesses look like gorgeous women, but this Goddess was a dragon humanoid with wings on her back and forearms. Her head had long tentacles that formed a tail of sorts.

She was likely the AI that would guide him through the character-creation process.

"Unless you feel discomfort moving around, we can start the avatar creation. May I access your genetic information to produce a species list that best matches your identity?"

"Yes."

many figures wearing fantastical garments appeared around him. They were all based on Link's appearance, with certain modifications like pointy long ears, horns, or tails... "So I have to pick a species out of these now. At least it's not female?" He looked around, seeing more models popping up in front of him...

"Do you wish to change your gender? Ah, an atypical value was found in your genetic data."

As the Goddess made that announcement, the entire virtual space collapsed. Strange glitches appeared in mid-air while the starry sky beyond the dome dimmed and vanished into pure darkness. All the preset character models in front of him also vanished.

"...Huh? What's going on?" Link began to worry as he saw the last preset character model vanish.

"A Unique Species has been found that matches your genetic data and available choices."

The goddess' voice echoed again, and a new figure appeared in the space in front of Link. The figure was relatively shorter and slimmer than Link. It had a delicate contour with tender and youthful curves, almost translucent white skin, and milky white hair with vibrant red highlights that reached below the waist. 

Emotionless heterochromia eyes of blood-red and yellow seemed to look back at Link, surrounded by long eyelashes of the same colour as the hair. The figure looked perfectly symmetrical, drawing an aesthetic contour that formed a...

"...Wait, what? It's a girl?!"

That figure was doubtless that of a girl.

"Or actually, why is she naked?! And why so detailed?! Isn't this game all age?"

The private parts are as detailed as the genuine parts. But that did not change the fact that the girl was not wearing a single piece of clothing, so Link, who was still a teenager, hastily covered his eyes.

His timidness only lasted briefly, giving way to curiosity as he separated his fingers to peep at that figure, his cheeks reddening further.

"So she's an... albino? I think?"

He gulped loudly, seeing her clear white skin. Then he stepped forward, doing his utmost not to look down, and hesitantly reached out to touch her face. Contrary to his expectations, his hand did not go through her, but he felt human skin obstructed the movement. He was allowed to check his avatar more intimately.

Her cheek felt smooth and springy, and it was pleasant to squish. He felt like he could never get tired of doing that... and felt something else against his fingers.

"Oh, that's... teeth? Though they're a little..."

As his thumb rubbed against her closed mouth, he felt something was a bit off.
