That after noon Sebastion finally acquired the Dive gear. I quickly opened the packaging, wore the helmet, Layed on the bed and waited.
I turned on the power with the switch on the side of the helmet.
[Scanning, please wait…]
I sat still and let the unknown rays of light sweep all over my face. I waited nearly three minutes before the light gradually dissipated.
[Scanning is successful!]
With my vision going dark, I have successfully entered the game. A screen was then displayed in front of me saying.
[First Please select a name for this character!"]
"Name?"
I was slightly surprised and pondered for a while, thinking of about what name I should call myself from now on.
"Jan Smith Tian Long" I called out the combination of my old and new name. So that I would always remember the promise I made during the time of my death and rebirth
[Naming is a success! You shall now enter the character customization.]
"HAHAHA, LINK STARTTU" How I've dream to say that line, and now it has finally come through haha. I now feel like my life is a little bit completed.
[Welcome to YGGDRASSIL]
-------
White....
That was all that I could see around me, just an empty white canvas expanding endlessly. In this room, I was currently floating on midair in the middle of 4 gigantic solid stone monument, which is beautifully adorned with carvings of mythological beasts and runic symbols. (Imagine standing in the middle of stone hedge.)
"Kyaa!"
I unconsciously made a strange noise, because a life size nude hologram of me had been projected out of the runic circle in the middle of the stone formation. I tried to touch my newly appeared body but my hand just passes through, apparently, it hasn't materialized.
[Character creation after reincarnation has begun]
{Please select race.}
As such, A three-dimensional character is displayed.
"No need to tell me twice, let's see the options"
I raise my hand to touch the floating item "Race Selection" while muttering to myself with a smile. That instant the 4 stone pillars lighted up and fired a beam of blue energy towards the sky. As if on que, the surrounding white space is transformed into a huge three-dimensional screen.
From the white space, A world abundant with nature is being generated in the back ground. As different creatures with similar looks were being created in succession on the screen in front of me, Just watching this phenomenon was breathtaking and could not be compare at all to my old worlds VR technology.
When I extend my hand to the character and touch it there is a strange feeling and The information for the character that I touched is displayed in a window. I can choose racial information to select one to examine.
Human Race, Beast, Elf, Half-Elf, Dark Elf, Half-Dark Elf, Ogre, Goblin, Mermaid, Gnome, Dwarf, Slime, Fairy, Draconic and etc.
"Wow, the devs weren't kidding about the unlimited customization aspect of this game, man I know for sure that I'll end up taking a considerable amount of time just to choose a race."
I continue moving my right hand left to right hands, selecting looking at all the different races. Seeing the Human race infront of me, I selected it and the details appear.
Race: Human
Racial Characteristics:
Permanent Skills: None
[The Human Race who boasts the largest population, Has an aristocratic society with slavery at the core and A monarch such as an Emperor or Empress at the apex. In large Human cities, There are a number of Guilds, Guilds develop while constantly improving themselves in friendly competition.
It can be said that the Human race's biggest advantage is its freedom of profession choice. It's said that the Human race has the favour of {Skill God Askr}, Perhaps because there is an almost infinite number of fighting professions.]
[Crest of Growth]
{Aside from racial skills, The humans are able to learn any skills in the game and due to the blessings of {Skill God Askr} they can level skills much quicker than the majority of the other races.}
"As expected, although being human isnt entirely bad, I feel like itll be an oppurtunity lost if were to just go for the human race. let'sjust check what the other races have to offer before making the final choice."
The next race that interested me was Vampire
It looks Human in appearance, But the canine teeth are sharp and protruding.
The skin is pale and The eyes have changed to a deep red.
"Not gonna lie they look badass. Moreover, It seems like my entire body's muscles have been enhanced, I look ripped as fuck"
I tried looking at the details.
Race: Vampire
Racial Characteristics:
Increase> Weakness: Perks: {The vampire's greatest racial characteristic would be the physical ability and magic ability increase, Compared to the ordinary human race they have overwhelming physical abilities and magic abilities. However, If they do not ingest blood, it will lead to mummification. When they mummification is completed, Capability declines extremely and The appearance changes entirely to that of an elderly.} "Hmm, a demonic race? sounds good, I've always wanted to play the bad guys haha. Also, I kinda like the idea of shapeshifting, let's see how it works" [Shapeshift Ability] {Using It was displayed in three-dimensional characters as expected.} "Not bad at all, btw what does this undyingskill even do? dont tell me I get infinite HP!?" [Undying] {Vampire are not complete immortals, But as long as their weaknesses aren't targeted, They are an immortal undead.} "So does that mean infinite years to live? Cuz that would be sick hahaha....Hmm blood sucking?" [Blood Sucking] {Sucking blood has a weak hypnotic effect on the partner, the Personal physical ability is slightly raised and Magic ability is slightly raised, However, After a day passes without sucking blood, Capability slightly falls, After seven days pass without sucking blood, Mummification gradually occurs.} "Oh…Although abilities rise, Sucking blood is something like a weakness isnt it. Speaking of weaknesses lets check out these two." [You shall not see the light of day] {If expose to sunlight and ultraviolet light, the body will spontaneously ignites, After bathing too much, The body turns to ash. The Undying ability is unrelated.} [Enemy of the church] {Upon receiving a light attribute attack, The portion which is attacked burns, If it is a powerful light, The entire body is annihilated. The Undying ability is unrelated. There is also a complete weakness of these characteristics.} "....Erm so I cant go outside during the day? yeah this race is probably not for me. But let's check his perk first" [Nobles of the Demonic Race] {Darkness magic can be used to absorb darkness attributed attacks.} "When looking at it this way, Vampires have a lot of weaknesses, But also high abilities. I'll have another look at the other playable race." Next, Let's see Lucifer My floating three-dimensional character starts changing somewhat. The fangs have disappeared, As well as the pale skin. The appearance is entirely similar to a human. As for the surplus fat disappearing and the thin muscular body, It reminds me of my high school prime. The muscles seem to be building up the same as the vampire. Race: Fallen Racial Characteristics: Weakness: None Perks: {Fallens are Angels that have fallen from the grace of God, due to having "impure thoughts" that divert them from the teachings of the God in the Bible. Although they have been cast out from Heaven, Fallens retain the ability to use light magic and due to being a fallen entity they can manipulate dark magic as well.} "They look kinda cool and I also like their back story, but the stats are where itll matter." [Temptation Inducement] {When the blood of virgins is acquired, The power of a blessing will be released. The blessing is said to have come from the Goddess of love Freyja. After releasing, Skill fusion integration is stimulated and you acquire one skill originating for the owner.} "...Wait so if I get the blood of a virgin, I can get one of their skills?...ummm ok.....Yeah let's just check the perks first" [The child of Light and Darkness] {It has the attributes of light and darkness in the soul and Expresses the torrent of the soul. Darkness and Light magic become practicable. Absorbs and nullifies Darkness and Light attributed attacks. Also will be able to learn both holy and demonic magic} [Devil's Charm] {Charms a person with a lower level or under certain conditions.This is not absolute as the targets Mp, Magic Defence and Resistance will factor in the rate of success.} "Oooo So I can use and nullify Light and dark magic, that'll be quite usefull in alot of anime worlds. Also a charm skill huh, not bad it compliments Temptation Inducement well." 'The Fallens are kinda like the Vampire, However they can't shapeshift is a bummer. Although Fallens race looks good, Vampires seems to be more powerful skill wise. Albeit vampire do have alot of weak points, with that bloodsucking being the biggest problem. It may look good on paper, but I don't want to go around randomly attacking people to take their blood, that's just asking the world to hunt me down. ' "Hmmm, well Let's just bookmark these two and look at the other 300+ races...haaaa" --------------------------------- I have checked the other race and found that the Fallens race is one of the best human-like races in terms of the balance between physical and magical abilities. Although stat wise the Drake race is a notch better, but if I were to travel the multiverse like AWS is hinting at. Then the races scales, tail and snout would be difficult to conceal. There was also another race that intrigued me, which was Sebas's race in anime, a dragonoid which had the same stats as the Fallens race. But in the end I chose the later race, due to the simple reason that of Fallens being more aesthetically pleasing. "So without further ado I shall choose the Fallens race." And touch the OK button.When it touches.My realistic three-dimensional model revolves in place and moves, I make a bow. Below is the status has been displayed, Name: Jan Smith Tian Long Age: 20 Race: Fallens Class: none level: Fallen 1/10 HP: 10 MP: 10 Phy. Atk: 5 Phy. Def: 5 Agility: 5 Mag. Atk: 5 Mag. Def: 5 Resistance: 5 (Starting stats range from 3 to 7) /AN:Max seems to be 100 in overlord/ Skill Status. Fallens Racial traits: Perks: Class skills:None Tier spells: None Thinking that it was finally done I sighed in relief, but unfortunately my wish was rejected. [The sizes of the character model can be modified] Was displayed. Moving my hand I increase my height, reduce my width and tampered with my ding dong. "Hey who wouldn't? am I right?" So, in the end of the character customization, I now have long silver hair that reaches past my shoulders, golden eyes with slitted pupil. 190 centimetres tall with a very toned body kinda like Kagami's from kuroko no basketball, and finally, I am now a proud owner of a 10-inch puntang destroyer with a solid girth of 3 inches. "And if your thinking 'Hey, doesn't that avatar strangely sound like a cheap Chinese imitation of Sephiroth from final fantasy?' then yes, you would definately and absolutely be correct." After everything was decided, [Start game?] Is displayed three-dimensionally. The characters "Yes" and "No" float below it. I silently and helplessly touch "Yes". As all my energy and excitement had been devoured by this hellish character Customization. [Have fun and good luck]
