My eyes are covered in black cloth. I don't know whether this is their procedure or the initiative of the tuxedo. I was led to a place. When they took off the cloth, I realized that this was the dining room. But really luxurious. This is the most luxurious dining room I've ever seen. Plus the tempting food has been served before me. Lucky!
My eyes monitor the entire room. It turns out it's not just me who is here. There are 9 people who are in the same position as me. A monitor on one side lights up.
Looks like a man with a face covered in a silver mask.
"Welcome to the True Adventurers! My name is Reiner Geiner. The person in charge of the big game that you are going to play later. Previously, please sit down and enjoy the dishes we have provided."
Guests, including myself, accepted his friendly offer. It seems that everyone really enjoys the meal. Maybe it's really good. But I hesitate to eat it. But if only drink, I think it's okay.
"While enjoying a meal, adventurers are welcome to introduce themselves according to the order available. The name and reason for joining this big game."
I glanced at a number in front of me. Eight. Maybe this is the number he said.
"Okay. Because I'm number one, I'll introduce myself. My name is Thunder. My reason is money of course." The black man closed his introduction by drinking a black drink in his hand. Then the blond woman also introduced herself.
"I'm Selfy. My reason is money."
And so on. They all have the same reasons. Money. It's my turn.
"My name is Natt. My reason is to look for my friend's whereabouts."
"Your friend?" Said the blond woman, "Why do you bother looking for them here? Are you sure that your friend has joined this game? After all, if he joins it means he did it voluntarily, right? You fool!"
Her words were really piercing. This woman might never have gotten happiness during her life. But I can't fight back those words. Because I'm just a gamer and unemployed.
"I thank you for your cooperation, True Adventures. Now I will explain how this Big Game works." said the man on the screen.
All attention was directed at him while we enjoyed the meal. At first I just wanted to drink, but this hand did not stop tasting the next dish. Damn you belly.
"This big game is called A-RPG. ANTAGONIST-RPG. This game has many features that you will find later when you enter the game. Surely, this game is not a children's game. This is a game where each of you must reach the highest score for getting a big prize. The value or points in the game can later be used to fulfill your daily needs. Eat, hotel, even women. "
A naughty whistle came from the black man. But Reiner ignored it.
"Points you can collect by doing quests are available in the game. Also with other ways that you will know later. For those of you who have played RPG or MMORPG games, of course you know how this game will be. But before that ..."
The man on the screen gave a signal to the waiters. Each waiter came towards us while giving something. A clock? Or Smartwatch? I do not know.
"It is your Player ID. It can last up to 15 days. Waterproof and not easily damaged. And there are GPS and feature features that you will know later. Before that, please use it first."
Without any suspicion, I use it. Dang!
Sharp objects from this watch suddenly pierce the wrist after use. It doesn't hurt too much, but gives a slight shock.
"The watch is called Bits. Don't ... to ... down ... an ... r ... a ... b ..."
What is this? I can't hear his voice well. My vision suddenly dispersed and this sleepiness immediately attacked like a flood. My hands and feet tried to support my body. But I still fell from the chair. I tried to keep fighting, but in vain. I can no longer feel anything. My whole body is numb.
What is this...
I arrived at a dirty place. Together with people I've never known. I tried to get up and towards the light coming. For the first time, I saw a place like this. A stretch of land was so wide that my eyes widened in amazement.
My head hurts a lot. Like there is a shrill buzz. Suddenly something from the object surrounding my wrist glowed and gave rise to a projection in front of me.
Enter your name!
<< Name: __________ >>
Name? Seriously. Questions like this ...
"Name? I ... don't remember."
