Fighting methods are real as it gets as it’s the same as at the outside world is.

I wonder if I can improve my self as a warrior here in this game can apply it outside of our real world.

I am outside the South Gate of Prontera, Killed a poring but still not enough to get something.

I earned an apple though.

Already talked and gained information about the gameplay of this game through Dylansho, a martial artist.

As of now, I am wondering in this field and if I assume, I am at the prontera’s field number 8 I guess?

To make sure though, I looked at the book and find the map and locate as to where I am right now.

It seems the technicalities of the options in this game is more like the ones I saw in an anime called “Sword Art Online, ALfheim Online, Gun Gale Online, etc.”

Looks like the creator of this game based this game to SAO or Sword Art Online’s style. Same Concept.

But this is the reality and this game is real Virtual Reality is real now. The only difference is this is Ragnarok’s gameplay.

The only thing that’s unique in this game. It’s originality and preserved gameplay.

Now If I go the east part of my current map, it will take me to Izlude and I am curious too on how Izlude looks from reality than in a computer screen.

But I think I would not yet cause’ I can’t go there and just look around I needed to me smart of course.

I need money right now, and I have 10 Zeny and an apple.

I needed to hunt monsters and get items to sell to Izlude if I were to go there.

So I roamed to the western side.

I encountered more porings  in my way and killed many, I tried to do techniques to kill them though, I learned a bit of kendo myself so I think it paid off a little and gave me advantage.

Well, porings are easy to kill that I have gone hunting lunatics now, but I am still level 2. And has many items from poring loots.

Apples and knives, sticky mucus, empty bottles and mostly jellopies.

What can I do? I am still weak and I need to level up myself and as I travel through west I also encountered many players killing and hunting porings, lunatics, pupa and drops.

The respawning time of monsters are amazing it was so fast that killing and hunting monsters are easy in this area.

And then, I gone right off west and pursue the road more.

I can kill them but I think it’s getting hard as I go with rockers that my hp is dropping significantly.

That’s when I realize that having martial art skills or any kind of techniques are more advantageous here.

That’s what I am lacking right now.

So I needed to learn more attack pattern since I am not a Beta tester like for those who had their chances to become one. It’s quite amazing though, only 500 people are invited to be a Beta Testers.

But regretting right now for not signing up for that is ridiculous. I am a veteran Ragnarok Player so I don’t need to become one. I can become strong here. I just needed fighting Experience right now.

I checked my skills set.

None.

Basic Learning Skill and Normal Attack Skill, a passive one.

And I thought, could I become an agility type swordsman? Asked it myself more times because if I did I need to become a Knight not a Paladin class.

But whatever, I think I will decide what happens after I get to become a swordsman.

And also, Stats are automatically assigned so it really depends on my fighting style, ability and capability.

Killing Rockers, Poporing and Mushrooms are hard but fun too! I never realize playing such VR game can give much fun.

Well its RAGNAROK so its awesome in many ways.

As I can see I am myself alone, many players has passed me and they are in groups, party huh.

I cant imagine myself joining a party even in RO Pc version. I am a solo player or loner I guess.

It’s just that I don’t want to share my profits or loots to others and experience. And having parties are difficult at times. I need to learn from the mistakes of that anime “SAO”.

It might look like crazy but it really does apply when VR was created in reality.

SAO or Sword Art Online has become a basis for every player in every VR games that has been created.

And as of now, I am level 10! Happy!

I killed many rockers and poporings today and got loots that stuffed my back pack. I am full I guess.

Unlike SAO though, We need to carry our equipment.

The harsh reality of this game is everything is in danger.

Equipment, weapons, loots and items can be stolen because there is no hidden storage or options like in SAO where we can store items in data type.

This game supports reality I guess.

So I am full I need to go to Izlude and buy a new sword and go become a swordsman.

Then suddenly…

A different colored Rocker appeared in my way to the east. What!?

Is.. is that a Vocal!?

I am only level 10! And its aggressive! I saw a party ganging it up and they are all novice.

It seems they are in a trouble, they are 4 players and 2 of them are at least 10% in their HP.

I can’t intervene though, It’s a freaking Vocal what the hell!

I think they have gone crazy though thinking of attacking such creature.

Vocal’s size is immense and tall unlike in Pc game, Vocal in Reality is Large and a MONSTER indeed.

I hid at the tree to watch them fight that monster and if something happened I think they’ll be re-spawned soon too so I don’t think they’ll be in trouble.

I just needed time and space to escape from that monster’s attention.

So I slip and run quietly and secretly to be out of its attention.

But when I looked back. They are all gone, dead. Re-spawned.

And that Vocal is aiming at me already! What the hell!

So I ran my hardest to escape but Vocal’s speed is fast! It coped up to me and gave a smashing slap and made me roll back atleast 10 feet!

Ouch! My hp is at 70%! Oh my saw! Oh well If I would die here and be respawn, its alright but… isn’t that a waste I like traveling and I like to explore more about this world so dying and re-spawning is a lot more of work and travel. It could waste my time.

 Vocal jumped to me and I evaded luckily!

But it’s fast movements reached my position and gave a beating I am at 20% of my HP.

I do feel tired and my body hurts a bit. And Vocal prepares his attack to me.

As I close my eyes preparing for the worst.

I heard a slashing sound.

As I open my eyes, a novice saved me.

To Be Continued.
