By the time I noticed it, I realized I had no idea how I got here.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAZ5S4eMh4Cn
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAaOKRSeanZd
There was a sloping area covered in green grass. The sun was still high in the sky, so it might still be early afternoon. The wind blew through the grass, giving it the appearance of green water; a wave of grass flowed in my direction as I sat atop a large rock. The smell of moist soil and the grass mixed with the wind, and the fragrance drifted into my nostrils. The wind carried to the forest behind me, rustling the leaves on the trees.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAJtgc3tP5F9
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAh5D9ybkzvs
I stand up unintentionally from the rock which I had sat on, and fix my eyes on the overwhelming expanse of the horizon. A view such as this couldn’t easily be seen in little old Japan, could it?1847Please respect copyright.PENANA5Vj8mYSEqJ
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9UPwZdQowa
Finally, I notice my own appearance.1847Please respect copyright.PENANALPYT53RNlG
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA3LIR6vQ0Bw
Decorated with the finest of details, a silver full body armor toned with white and blue, akin to those from some myth or legend, adorned my body.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAIV9gceTu04
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA7Op9ghGtyx
A jet-black mantle blows in the wind; inside the mantle, small glimmers of light can be seen, invoking thoughts of a starry night.1847Please respect copyright.PENANALOIQ91oMO7
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAyHe3OgZfSo
On my back I carry a large round shield with an elaborate emblem in the center, as well as what can only be described as a divine blade which gave off an awe-inspiring aura.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9wnbKyBtsE
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAx2g7HdU7Ku
This gear is far apart from my normal appearance, but I know it well. Even today, before I fell asleep in front of my computer after playing online games, this gear was equipped to my player character.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAFJUpl6tQX0
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAx1oFv5gyOC
“What the hell?!”1847Please respect copyright.PENANA8QNlA95j0d
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAUSBgLYGkiw
I yell at the top of my lungs. Even though I know there is no one here to answer, I couldn’t help but cry out.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAzzt7E4nME1
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA8dIN5xiifZ
I slowly move the sword sheath to my waist and whip out the blade. A thin, blue, double-edged blade surrounded by light is drawn. The beautiful blade shines like the light of day. The length of the sword’s blade exceeds well over a meter, giving the weapon a seemingly heavy look. I take a stance with the blade parallel to my eyes, and swing it down.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAQteeNH6oBb
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAMBjUZ2IG5X
“What the hell?!”1847Please respect copyright.PENANA2dB9PBejwk
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAr8kM6WPtyP
I scream again.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAfzVTWyoe2J
1847Please respect copyright.PENANApfQ1HFqEGv
It’s light! The weight is such that I can hardly believe it’s made of metal. I lightly swing the unrealistic sword to confirm the weight. Then I swing the sword with one hand. Even though I’m equipped with body armor, I feel light. It’s as if I’m not wearing armor at all.1847Please respect copyright.PENANATIJe957nED
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9H2O83APon
“【Flying Dragon Slash】!!”1847Please respect copyright.PENANAUtWhgPyg26
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAn5YPmEgNzm
While waving the sword around, I call out the name of a skill from the game. A beam of light emits from the sword, and is sent flying into the forest.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA8peWqYJEA5
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAkPpp419ocB
Suddenly, a handful of trees slowly fall within the forest. The leaves of other trees rustle, and the of the birds of neighboring trees all fly into the sky. A slightly dull sound echoes through the area as the trees hit the ground.1847Please respect copyright.PENANASSs7Prgesf
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAjKdIeig6E0
“Really, what the hell…”1847Please respect copyright.PENANAc3NMzDCJ1h
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAhQuehZ2U8O
Finally, I have the feeling that my thoughts have calmed down. But I still did not understand the situation.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAAfcpojMiAF
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA1p8EKwhNR7
The weapons and equipment that I have equipped were of mythical grade, the same as that of my character in the game I was playing.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAl23VuK2HjO
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAe0aziegfr5
It was truly a rarity to be fully equipped with mythical grade gear. There are a total of six grades of equipment: low, intermediate, high, masterpiece, legendary, and mythical.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAIRibbdTJGn
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAsm3ufu15d5
The silver body armor I have on is the Heavenly Knight armor,『Belen’s Saint Armor』series. The armor is comprised of five pieces: the headgear, torso, waist, arms, and legs. Not only does it enhance defense and periodically restore a fixed amount of health, it also increases attack power, as well as increasing curse resistance. In addition, fire and light attribute damage are reduced by half. A set of truly broken gear.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAFB63HIGv9L
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA5uWebL2tvZ
And the mantle fluttering in the wind behind me is the mythical grade『Overcoat of the Night Sky』. It has the effect of reducing darkness attribute damage, also restoring a set amount of mana over time.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAGd1hOM8maU
1847Please respect copyright.PENANADdwTysuKyh
The shield that I carry on my back was the『Heavenly Shield of Titus』. In addition to high defense and knockdown invalidation, it raised all abnormal status effect resistance values.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAlkzhfuFW5n
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAOJJsRHEVsD
Complaints about the broken Heavenly Knight series led to the administration patching it, but the effects of the armor remained ─ it was just that players could no longer use other accessories with the equipment. Consequently, the already limited number of users of the Heavenly Knight series further decreased.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAquASSNUI4u
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA2biNFdMRWH
Finally, in my hands I am wielding the『Holy Thunder Sword』.With its high attack power and agility boost, it’s a two-handed sword I am truly proud of. Like every other mythical class weapon within the game, it has its own special attack, with the penalty being that the player suffers a power reduction after its useage.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAmOP6kVAOeg
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAxTRjJ6rsxN
I return the sword to the sheath at my waist, then, with my right hand, I cast【Flame】. And just like in the game, a torrent of flames shoot out as if my hand is a flamethrower.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAJzV6n1xg3s
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA7VjqI4D4KK
No… It’s different from the game.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAmf1MC4sReo
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAmLSJyi1T7a
If I’m not mistaken, the main occupation of my character was Heavenly Knight, and the subclass should have been Pope.【Flame】is a Magician’s skill and【Flying Dragon Slash】is certainly a Warrior’s skill. It’s not a skill my current character’s occupation should have been allowed to use in the game.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAMOrz9OsPpt
1847Please respect copyright.PENANADxbOxKZfVh
Why can a Knight use a Magician’s skill? Then, I had a thought: considering everything, what if this isn’t the game or a dream, but reality?1847Please respect copyright.PENANAtkE1LpCN1V
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAWMHTWIVbHA
If it’s reality, then the skills that I could not use because of my class change should be fully available. For example, a Judo expert who started a boxing career is still capable of using Judo techniques.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAbPA0v7sZUT
1847Please respect copyright.PENANANAbXrKW5rG
With me often reaching the highest level of my occupations, am I able to use all the high-level skills that I had?1847Please respect copyright.PENANAeRIoC7wGWJ
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAADTrIVv7QO
The conditions for gaining the Heavenly Knight class are that a character had to possess maximum level in the Magician, Priest, and Warrior occupations. In order to achieve that, I had to gain the occupations of Magic Knight, Advanced Wizard, and Pope. I did not learn all of the skills from each occupation, but I did learn quite a few of them.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAVV4KQ2nNIY
1847Please respect copyright.PENANArzq0dtpR1V
If anything, if I am able to use all of the skills that I learned, I should be able handle anything that comes my way.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAsjqfSwScif
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA3HlR0ArLqq
I wonder if I would have been able to survive if my main occupation had been fixed to Heavenly Knight. Frankly speaking, some of the highest-level occupations can’t really be used. First, there are only four technique skills available. And all of them are flashy skills that cause widespread destruction. Clearly it was a class only meant to fulfill the romance of the developers.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA8sBJhOIJYh
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9j7dFE0Oyl
As it is, I am able to use the【Heavenly Knight Sword Techniques】that allows a two-handed sword be wielded with only one hand, but if I were to use both hands, wouldn’t it increase my attack power?1847Please respect copyright.PENANAA1CCqVZyLe
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAv9WCD1wUNH
I’ve been in this area for a while now, but nothing will get done if I stay here. If this is indeed real, I need to find some people or a town and think of a future plan.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAVi5O3Rydee
1847Please respect copyright.PENANANuPgOOOkVQ
I try to invoke the Magician’s support skill,【Transfer Gate】. Pale light is emitted as a three meter wide magic circle appears…1847Please respect copyright.PENANAzgKREqzDoo
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAVjPJOI6yCq
In the game, all I had to do is select the name of a town and I would be transferred there. However there is no selection screen now. For a while, I think about what I should do. Incidentally, my vision darkens. And then I notice that the landscape spread out before my eyes has changed.1847Please respect copyright.PENANALwToPnG75N
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAL7bWiEG6YY
I traveled about three meters from where I was a second ago. Apparently, this magic can’t be used properly without a clear image of where I wanted to go.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA8xfjZIGm1N
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAn1J6jRfN0J
However, I don’t know any locations in this world, It seems that I didn’t move because of this fact.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAuncTCXGuOb
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAqHnd6V14Xe
I give up…1847Please respect copyright.PENANAaqz8eBBGyX
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAdfNYmJl6zQ
Wait, there should be one more skill available for movement. The support skill,【Dimensional step】.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAcXl2BLU377
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAZssVpg6I37
The skill lets me move to any location after I select it. In the early stages of the game, it was a skill that allows you escape the range of enemy attacks ─ a skill used when you were surrounded by enemies. But after the middle stage of the game, when the monsters and the boss’ attack range took up the whole screen, it was regarded as a useless skill. Am I able to use it? With no screen to click, I could just be wasting mana.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAMdKhgnkNEJ
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9VongZXyCv
I set my eyes on the intended location and activate【Dimensional step】. The scenery changes in an instant. When I look back, I observe that the place I had just been is a great distance away. It’s probably about five hundred meters. In the game, no matter what you did, the skill could only take you to the edge of the screen. In reality, it appears that I can move to any location within my line-of-sight. Though I can’t blow off heads with beams like a certain Esper girl, it’s still a helpful power. With a cool-down time of one second, it can be seen as a very convenient movement method.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAID83he97NW
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAIOxgiuF6vs
So I continually use【Dimensional step】to navigate the landscape.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAHQFiAyCeXa
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA5Dtc5WM69r
As the day fades away, it seems that I’m moving in the southwest direction. After leaving the sloping area a little while ago, I see a large river ahead.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAOHje3P97oF
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAFvV8egPokW
I transfer to the riverbank and look around. This river is about two hundred meters across. It seems to hold quite a lot of water. When I look at the river, the water seems to be transparent, and I see many fish swimming along with the current.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAVamlBjmDlv
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA6dmgdP7EoA
Why don’t I take a break and have a drink of water?1847Please respect copyright.PENANAvagl9dFrDe
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA4z4NGiDu3R
I remove my helmet. That reminds me, not only did I not feel heavy wearing the armor, but I also didn’t feel hot. Such a thought was in my head as I brought my face closer to the water.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA84hxWwc1F9
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAGaU2xIqUsC
At that moment, my mind goes blank──1847Please respect copyright.PENANAXOAk757yZu
1847Please respect copyright.PENANABukkftXHBf
“─Damn…”1847Please respect copyright.PENANAd1vwtrRVuJ
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA412Wwx5JB3
My mutter is lost inside the noise of the water.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAeC3KExS7CN
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA1KhnAJDuvL
My vision focuses on the refection in the water. There are no eyes. In fact, there doesn’t appear to be a nose or even any flesh. In the dark eye sockets, the pale light of the undead can be seen. I stare back at the reflection without any emotion.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAhRnF3nJCoU
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAy7s4VYlaGt
The water was reflecting the figure of an armored skeleton──1847Please respect copyright.PENANA4M6E3afke3
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAfvEWgWE6or
I completely forgot it. The kind of avatar I played the game with.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA7qbpDm1qtT
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAXxFrN67GtI
Your usual game avatar would be a humanoid ─ one that can be customized to suit a person’s own preference. The degree of customization was extensive: you could make a long-eared Elf, or even a pig-nosed Orc.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAHF5ibtV9mA
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAAlSAic1B8Z
There were also special avatars that charged a fee in order to be obtained; one of the special avatars was『Skeletal Body』.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAHLo8cIQ2no
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAYGwgmhzM5J
Despite the fee, “it won’t matter if I’m completely covered in armor,” is what I told my friends…1847Please respect copyright.PENANA2rbL2rSNxK
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAGR0iyK8dUw
I actually wanted a golden skeleton avatar. With that, I would be known as the crazed hero of justice. When I searched about it later, the head of the guy was a skeleton, and from the neck down it was gold just like the costume of a professional wrestler. Nevertheless, I thought that it would be a completely golden skeleton for the entire time before that…1847Please respect copyright.PENANAEuPiTjeaOC
1847Please respect copyright.PENANACJO7zT81W9
To escape reality, I had thought of the past.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAj4YCaSAnj3
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAvdTZdSJsyi
This is very bad.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAzFV0rHdEok
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAtoj4uwsUjx
I can not remove my helmet in public with this appearance. In fact, if I do, I might become a target for monster subjugation.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAmeukPbVCf6
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAZfzsDkanKj
My current future plans were just revoked.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA03uJmEiZwr
1847Please respect copyright.PENANArgEsp7JkFE
I will live quietly and not stand out as best as I possibly can.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAgXIZakE7OB
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA5r0pG2Ss7G
However, my body armor is quite luxurious, and it could attract attention alone… Yet, I can’t remove this equipment.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAIk9fRPfge2
1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9rNbRNbSce
In this world I have nothing to my name except for this armor. I lack all my in-game items, and I have no money.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9DZC2qGXOh
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAlADY7Gc5vC
I have to carefully scrape together some money for the time being.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAPpDMLblxHC
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAtLUFlzJblo
I shove my head into the water and drink. Since I’m a skeleton, did I try to drink out of habit? Where would the water that I drink go? In the first place, can I even taste the water?1847Please respect copyright.PENANAshEVwW66mH
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAwu69i5nJue
I won’t worry about the small things anymore. The inside of my head was beginning to overheat. Even though I have no brain to speak of.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAIArETsnHyT
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAI4elv0JJEE
A skeleton laughs in a high-pitched voice in my head… Oops, my mind tried to escape reality again.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAodr7fRzt9w
1847Please respect copyright.PENANADiiZdaIrqI
First, let’s reconsider the idea of looking for a city. Perhaps I will find some people living at the end of the river.1847Please respect copyright.PENANAc3o0jhGp2a
1847Please respect copyright.PENANAxyuflOvYuW
With such thoughts, I put my helmet back on and resume using【Dimensional step】. Since leaving the river, signs of a road has started to develop, so a village shouldn’t be that far.1847Please respect copyright.PENANA9P8JiKvysD
