I feel my soul and mental state teleport to the actual game; the intensity of whatever this helmet doing to me makes me wonder how scientists/engineers invented this sort of thing.
Now I'm in an almost empty Seoul. Everything is exactly the same as how I've seen it; even the small details like shop signs and tree leaves make it seem so real. The weather also matches up with the real world; nice and warm winds of spring. However, that can bring things like thunderstorms.
Someone taps me on the shoulder and I turn around. Of course I know that I can't possibly die in this game, so why should I worry that this person is a murderer of something?
A female who looks exactly like a typical Korean student.
"Hello, Krystal. My name is Mellie, nice to meet you." She extends her hand out and I shake it. I immediately feel that her hand feels... inhuman. No, it feels real but not real. It's warm and soft, but when you squeeze it...
"Mellie? You look Korean, though." I remark, then realizing that sounded a bit racist or whatever you want to call it. Biting her lip and then swallowing her saliva, she pauses for a second before she begins speaking again.
"Well, the creator..." for some odd reason she pauses again, "made me like this. You see, I'm a really smart NPC (non-player character) and I can actually do stuff like you can. I can talk, eat, sing, and whatnot just like you humans can, except that I just don't have this." Mellie points slightly to the left of her chest, "A heart or soul..." She looks a bit gloomy as she says those words.
"Anyways, I'm just going to give you a quick tour of this place and how to use stuff as fast I can." She swings her arms around mine and starts to fast walk on the sidewalk. A few Korean male characters or CPUs pass by us and give us a wave.
"They're so hot~" Mellie swoons just like a human, too. "Okay, so stop walking."
Making sure I don't bump into her, I stop about three feet away from her. She lets go of my arm and touches her right wrist with her other hand. A hologramic Stat box pops up at her waist level and she drags it up towards her neck level.
"This is the Stat box. You can check all of your relationships with other people; enemies, friends, boyfriend, husband, etc. Your hunger and thirst will be exactly the same as how it is in the real world. Umm... right! There are setting to change your preferences." She nudges me with a smirk on her face. "So if you want to get naughty then you can switch that on and all of the guys in this world will turn to that mode."
Secretly wanting to turn that on because I'm a thirsty ass high schooler, I press my Chip and the Stats pop up. I press on the settings category and just look at it.
"There's also an information and manual page incase you need help with anything urgently; it's stuff like how to cook crap and earn money to buy food, etc. If you need me to talk to you about anything, just send me a notification." Mellie presses the 'Add Relationship' button and then the screen starts scanning for people in a 0.2 radius from her. A photo of me and a few other Asians pop up onto her screen. Mellie clicks on my photo and then the screen changes into a whole new different page. Eavesdropping, I look at her screen.
What would you like to add Krystal as?
-Acquaintance
-Friend
-Best friendShe presses on the 'Friend' and a notification pops up on my own Stat box. I accept her request and then wait for her to say something.
"I've got to go now; there are others waiting for me to help get them settled. If you need anything, send me a notification or message!" Mellie does that finger waving thing and just disappears with a thin smile spread across her face.
I click on my wrist again which sends the Stat box away from my sight.
"Shall we go hunt for guys now?" I grin, not able to contain myself from squealing.

Sorry for the short chapter; it's 1 a.m. here and I'm exhausted.
I'll make the next chapter extra kinky and exciting, if you know what I mean. ;));;;)
