"Don't go running around Ian!

"

"It's okay uncle Blue, I'm just going to try and surprise mom & dad

"

nI ran to the yard where the hunters of the village were being trained by my parents, as I wanted to surprise them by the new sword move that I had learned from uncle blue.

nHowever, I was soon disappointed as the yard was completely empty…..

n

"Hmmm? Mom…. dad… where are you?!

"

nI ran to the training hall, while calling out to them, but silence was the only answer I received.

n

"Uncle Blue, mom & dad aren't here, do you know where they went?

"

n

"Where are all the trainees? Why is the whole place empty all of the sudden?!

"

nI started getting dizzy as if I were going to faint any minute now, the last thing I saw was uncle Blur's bitter smile…..

n>>>>

n

"Gasssp!

"

nI woke up to find myself in quite a familiar place, it was the white space that I was in at the very start of the game.

nI looked around as my mind was quite puzzled, what in the world did I just experience?!

nIn my head where 3 sets of memories, if it was someone else they would suspect having split personality….

nHowever, due to my originally photographic memory, I was able to get a hold of myself. Still, it was still a puzzle.

nThe most vivid memories of my life on earth, the memories of a young boy living a happy life with his family in Thunder village, and what seemed to be falsified memories of the village life which I received from the memory transfer.

nI couldn't help but have doubts, the memories I experienced where quite different from the memory transfer, not only in content, but also in the way I received them.

nI had felt like I experienced a whole 13 years of life in quite the literal meaning, to the point of doubting which Ian I was. It was just that realistic.

nNonetheless, I still did gain some benefit out of this confusing experience, I was able to get a lot of knowledge about this world, I could even be considered a native based on it.

nStill, I had to push that matter aside for now, all I should focus on now was moving forward. Hopefully, the questions I have will be answered eventually.

nOh, you are finally awake?

n

"Huh?

"

nI was once again hearing voices out of nowhere, was this a similar situation to the Thunder lion's? Still, that voice was somewhat familiar...

nOh yeah, you are probably confused. I'm the system's #000 interactional AI, I don't have a name yet, but you can call me Zero.

n

"Ah, that's why the voice was familiar. Still, why are you only speaking now? It was quite awkward to communicate with you before.

"

nWell, that wasn't me. It was the unified system AI, it's designed to provide limited help to users 000~009 during the tutorial arc. As for me, I'm one of the rewards that you automatically receive as you complete the tutorial arc.

nWhich reminds me, would you like to view your rewards and evaluation now?
