Jackson looked at that so familiar yet so foreign look and asked, "Are you Cos? The storage master?" . Cox laughed and answered "I am indeed Coss, what's your name young man?".
Jackson was confused, he tried pinching his cheeks "OUCH" but felt the pain. 'It can't be a dream, was I transported inside the game? Or did I logged in? Nothing good will happen if I panic, let's try to gather information first.'
Jackson composed himself and looked at Cox and said "My name is Jackson, can I access my storage Mr. Coss?" Cox looked at him with contempt and said while snickering. "Yes, just focus your mana here, try to feel the Void and Space elements and you'll be able to access your storage based on your level." Coss said as he handed over a violet box in front of me.
After Jackson heard that he pondered for a minute and placed his hands in the box. 'Void and space elements? It seems that some things have change in this world.'
Jackson heaved a sigh of relief after realizing that all of his alz and items were still inside there.
"*sigh* Can't go on a journey in an empty pocket, hmmm... what's this?"
While rummaging within his storage he saw a new icon near his collection of level 10 pets.
[VOIDLING]

"WHAAT? A combat pet? What's this supposed to be?" Jackson placed the pet icon in his inventory and put it in his pet slot and a black hole seemed to open up and a violet creature walked out of it. It has three eyes and walk on four pointy legs.
'Hmmmmm... It seems familiar, Where have I seen this before?' Jackson thought and tried using his mind to control the creature, but to no vail.
"How do I command this thing? Hey come here." Jackson said and the little guy crept closely to him.
"Oh, so you can understand me." Jackson said as he pat the head of the voidling.
"Yes, Master ofcourse I can." Jackson was startled by what he heard, not because it spoke but was because it's voice is a high pitch one like that of a little child.
"I never expected you to speak and if I did I thought it would be strange noises."
"Only master can hear and understand me."
"Oh is that so, anyway just stay with me for now." Jackson said as he started to look at the armor section of his storage, he's still wearing the black suit attire that he liked in the game but all of his armor got relocated to his storage and if he didn't have the black suit activated he would be totally naked.
[Author note: Well, not entirely naked. If a character is not wearing anything in the game, the game would still gave the character its underwear :D]
After wearing a mithril set and changing his costume to the most basic martialsuit in the game Jackson went beside a hut and sat there digesting all the information that he just received and was trying to calm down. After he came to himself he noticed that the sun was already about to set. He went to the officer in charge of the town and when he got near the place where you can usually see the officer in the game, he noticed that he wasn't standing there. He then came closer to the two guards that's standing near the gate and asked one of them.
Jackson looked at the name of the guard that was displayed above his head
Cito
Occupation: Guard
Level: 10
HP: 200/200
MP:50/50
'What? Isn't that too weak to be a level 10 guard?' Jackson said as he saw the HP and MP of the guard.
Although he can't see the other details other than the HP and MP just comparing it to his battle pet it was already a huge margin of power.
Jackson went approach the gate but when he arrived near a corridor all of a sudden five burly men went towards him.
One of them with a scar in his left eyes said as he stood in front of Jackson, while having an intimidating look on his eyes. "Where do you think your going with that equipment of yours?"
The other guy with a bluestine martial suit said as he looked at Jackson as he was an idiot. "Having a basic martial suit and a common blade as an equipment and you want to go outside of town? Do you have a death wish or something?"
He were the first born son of the mayor of the town, Jerry Dunhike and was considered to be the big boss around, he would try to recruit anyone that looked strong and while he was parading with his subordinates he saw a strong looking guy that wears the most basic equipment and felt that he would be an easy person to recruit, his Father was always busy with his work in governing the town so he has little time to spend with his son leading to him always looking for trouble.
Jackson looked pissed, although he made it look as if he was a newbie by hiding the fact that he has the void armor and void sword with maximum stats and enchantment on, which is the strongest armor and weapon in the game, he still felt pissed by the fact that someone looked down on him.
Jackson tried his best to look calm and just ignored them and said. "I thank you for the warning but please move aside, What I do or where I want to go is none of your business."
Jerry snapped, he didn't expect the guy to be a rude one he stepped forward as he pulled out his Damascus blade and said. "What??? Are you saying that we were in the wrong? Huh?"
Jackson activated his aura and Battle Mode 1 and looked at the guy with a mustache, the guy stepped back as he fell in his butt trembling he looked back to his subordinates and shouted. "What the hell are you all watching for? Beat him up!"
He then tried to stand up but failed and fell again. He looked back hoping to see his subordinates beating the shit out of the newbie but as he looked back he saw that all of them were rooted in their feet, they didn't even dared to move.
Jackson heaved a sigh of relief and moved on, he didn't want to kill people if it can be avoided.
'Although the look on that guy's eyes somewhat makes me uncomfortable.'
He looked at Jackson's back while wiping the sweat of his face. "What kind of monster is that? Just you wait I'll have you pay for this humiliation, I don't believe that I can't get you back for this. Let's go you useless fools"
Jackson went outside of the town to see a vast desert, he didn't even see any buildings that have been erected outside except some shadows that looked like ruins. He toured around the map for the whole day, he saw a lot of familiar monster that he saw in the game, although they were aggressive to low level players they're pretty docile when they were in his presence, although all the monsters can see is just a blur since he was constantly using dash and fade skills.
[Author Note: I mean who would attack a level 200 player in a starting map.]
Night came and he decided to go back to the town, he didn't expect that he took 1 day to wander around the map and he didn't even get to explore it all. He then decided to enter the town using the west side because he wants to see how the using of skill works in this world.
Upon reaching the outside of the west gate, he heard a noise that someone seems to be practicing. He approached the area in which he saw a young girl with long black hair, while she was holding a wooden sword that seems to break any moment and was covered with sweat all over, she was still practicing hard.
He tried to leave the girl all to herself but when he was about to leave he stepped into a bone that broke apart after being stepped on.
[Author note: Not sure about my grammar here but nah, hahaha.]
The girl stopped what she was doing and looked at where the noise was coming from.
"Who's there?"
Jackson didn't expect that to happen since, in the game you can't destroy things in the game, only those with HP can be destroyed.
He approached the girl and said. "Hello there, You seem to be busy practicing so I tried to leave without being noticed but I failed."
The girl then heaved a sigh of relief seeing the foreign face of the man, she was afraid that it an assassin sent to kill her but seeing the martial suit that was being donned by the man she naturally knew that even if he tried he won't be able to beat her. "It's okay, are you here to practice? You can practice with me, I don't mind having someone to talk to while practicing."
'I didn't come here to practice though, she also looks familiar, hmmmm.... Thinking about it, how does the skill system here works? I don't have button to press or anything similar, just these window in front of me which is telling me the skill's information and cool down.'
Jackson grabbed one of the wooden swords and approached a training dummy, he tried imagining himself as the character which he always plays. If he were to count in how many times he saw the execution of the skills of his character then he won't even know where to start counting, he grabbed another wooden sword and visualized himself doing the transcender skill [Death Tempest], a skill that unleashes anger so great that the enemy is deluded into seeing mirrors of oneself.
'Phew, it seems I can do the skills if I put my mind to it.' Jackson went to the rack and placed down the two wooden swords and getting ready to leave but he when he turned around he saw the girl dropping her wooden sword, knelled and shouted.
"OH GREAT MASTER, PLEASE TAKE ME IN AS YOUR STUDENT!"
