The sun was shining in the highest part of the sky indicating midday.
The passersby went from one side to another in the streets of the city some dressed in casual clothes, others in business suits and others with backpacks indicating that they were travelers, at that moment there was a crowd of people watching a screen placed in a building like many others.
On one of the screens was the oasis heart creator talking to a reporter.
"Explain please Mr. Chung, what do you have to say to the millions of people watching this live broadcast, what do you feel about having put your hopes in a game and that it will take you to the top?" The young reporter asked excited to receive an interview with Sul-Chung the creator and director of the oasis heart.
"I have no words the first month of the launch of the game this had just received two hundred thousand visits which we worried about me and the development team of the game because they were very few, but the next month those two hundred thousand became two hundred million! I felt that day to see the millions of people enjoying my game, my idea made me almost cry for emotion since then and dedicated every second of my life to the game, adding content, characters, enemies, environments, rewards and the best of all is that the players of the world continue to support my work and that of my team. " Sul-Chung said explaining to the young reporter how the game at a certain point received very little attention and days later it exploded and became a worldwide sensation.
"It has been just five months since the beginning of the heart of the oasis game and this ah reached the top of the list of the most played games in the world, still many people keep asking how Sul-Chung does to continue having such amazing ideas, designs of monsters so strange, bizarre and spectacular. "
The reporter moved the microphone from his mouth to that of Sul-Chung, waiting for a respectable nod on his behalf, but he was busy at that moment giving a bite of a cinnamon bun that he had in his hand so the reporter could not avoid laughing by making Sul-Chung also start laughing with his mouth full.
"I apologize, Mr. Sul...hahaha... I will talk to you when I finish eating your muffin, I am Garry Nelson and this was an exclusive interview with the brain and director of heart development of the oasis Mr. Sul-Chung. Have a good day." The reporter under his microphone and continued laughing drying his tears with his hands.
Many people present, camera assistants and make-up artists laughed while Sul-Chung continued to eat his muffin, Sul-Chung's strange behavior despite being a millionaire was very friendly, which made it easy for anyone to come and greet him. Talk to him, take pictures and get signed autographs.
Another reporter at that moment approached while Sul-Chung was wiping his face with a napkin.
Mr. Sul, tell me what was your first inspiration for the game? What was the main goal to achieve? "The reporter asked the obvious, which was the main objective of the game, but Sul-Chung had a very simple answer to that question.
"Fun and a world of fantasy, in which anyone could become what they want to be, from a hero to a villain for that reason the game has such freedom so that anyone can do what they want, how many people have read a book of fantasy in the world and have wished to be a warrior who cuts off his enemies with a sword, a hunter or a magician? " Sul-Chung responded to the reporter explaining the final goal of the game.
"If you'll excuse me, I should go sign autographs and enjoy the cosplay!!" Sul Chung told the reporter walking away and losing herself in the crowd of people there.
Sul-Chung despite having become a millionaire, still continued to enjoy the common things that he had always admired and that was the people who did cosplay, what Sul-Chung most adored about cosplayers was to see the amount of creativity that they had to make their clothes and costumes.
...
...
...
A limousine had stopped in front of the building where Sul-Chung was, in addition to the cosplay and video game convection and from within the limousine a young woman with long golden hair with tight blue clothes came out and stretched making her feminine attributes become more detailed in his suit.
"Miss Hye, that suit does not fit a bit tight?" The driver of the limousine said observing how the young girl's costume made her attributes stand out.
"I don't care, I like this cosplay, you can go now." The young girl said waving her hand at the driver.
Inside the limousine the driver feels some concern leaving Hye alone at a video-game and cosplay convention, so he did not think twice and hired a couple of personal guards who stayed close to her without her noticing it while. That she enjoyed the convention, events and news about the world of the heart of the oasis that coincidentally was also the favorite game she played after her long hours of acting.
The two private guards on the other hand were having trouble keeping track of Hye because all the women who did cosplay wore many clothes that usually covered few parts of their bodies, so they would not stop being distracted.
"Heavens, the women here are beautiful, I feel like in paradise." one of the guards said to his partner while he was taking pictures of a cosplayer wearing the costume of a popular manga character.
"The costumes that men wear here are also impressive, look at a Goblin slayer cosplayer!" The guard ran away to take a close-up picture of the cosplayer of goblin slayer, a popular comic manga character which was very violent, but managed to attract the attention of readers.
The other guard was only watching Hye allowing his partner to enjoy the convention.
"I really think I made a mistake in bringing you here today" the personal guard said following Hye although she remained motionless for a long time watching the screens showing Live gameplays of players from around the world.
Hye was a very active player in the game, so she was very interested to see the strategies that other players used to be able to increase levels in the game world, until a particular transmission called Hye's attention.
On the screen you could see a player, a man of an advanced age running through the desert being chased by a group of sandworms that were attacked by mysterious floating skulls, the man showed an expression of happiness and emotion through the screen that unlike the other players who took the game very seriously, he seemed to enjoy it in his own way.
Other people dressed casually approached the monitors and began to exchange opinions with each other out loud.
"That person is not too old to be playing that game, I mean look at him, he seems to be 50 to 60 years old, how the hell do he run and not get tired?" One of the people said talking to his companion, but he was unable to respond because he had been watching the person on the screen.
"At least you can see that he enjoys the game, he looks at his smile, it looks like a boy running through the park with his dog." The companion said.
"Yes, a child who runs in the desert and who is being chased by worms that eat meat." The person said sarcastically observing the monitor.
Hye listened to the comments and was upset by such behavior on the part of other people, judging someone by their age and how things were going. Hye was about to start an argument with them but this was stopped by a person behind her who put his hand on his man shaking his head.
"Do not argue with them, hardheads never understand things no matter how much you explain them, oh excuse my bad manners, my name is Frank, you seem to be enjoying watching Sebastian." The person named Frank said, mentioning the name of the player.
Hye turned around and was curious how Frank knew the person on the screen.
"Sebastian, do you know him?" Hye asked pointing his finger at the screen.
Frank denied the fact with his head and answered.
"Not personally, but I know that person is called Sebastian, and he won the hatred of many players in the heart of the oasis because they bet that he would die in his first encounter with a unique creature, but he just won what caused thousands of players who had bet against him lost millions of gold coins. " Frank raised both hands to the screen winking at him.
"That's why this person is my hero, thanks to him, my guild earned 29 million gold because one of my colleagues bet 150 gold coins in his favor, for that reason I hope that person continues to enjoy the game and never find those idiots who like to create problems for other players. " Frank said changing the expression on his face, mentioning players who enjoyed ruining the game for others.
"You mean the PK's?" Hye said watching Frank who accented the fact with his head.
"I think if he were to be attacked by Pk's he would end up killing them without problems and on the other hand I played the game for 4 months and this is the first time I see that skill that makes skulls appear that float and attack indepently to anything that he approaches the player. " Hye said watching the group of skulls that incessantly attacked the worms.
"Now that you mention it, the day in which he fought against the only monster also used a strange ability which attracted the blood of dead enemies and used it as an extension of his sword, so I'm more interested to know what class he got on the game, we need to remember that the heart of the oasis does not have a system of selectable classes, these can only be achieved through the use of a constant method. " Frank said while explaining the method of obtaining classes in the game, Hye on the other hand was watching as Sebastian continued to slaughter the worms without receiving a blow.
"That stopped being a hunt, that already became a one-sided massacre." Hye said.
...
...
...
On the other hand Sebastian continued to destroy the worms since he had woken up, but this time he had gone out to exercise, shower and buy cleaning supplies for his house.
After having started to play Sebastian had appeared inside the city, so he had to run out into the desert and start using the servants to kill more worms and get experience, at the end of that day Sebastian again managed to increase his level and of his servants in addition to the range of ability.

Another day was ending as in the desert Sebastian was sitting on a rock watching the sun slowly descend on the horizon, which flooded him with peaceful thoughts ignoring everything around him.
"What a quiet night." Sebastian said watching as in the sky and began to notice some stars.
"Well, bedtime!" Sebastian stood up and stretched putting both hands behind his back.
"Tomorrow will be a better day, although I'll have to find a new ground to hunt monsters, I could barely level up today." Sebastian said disconnecting from the game.
Moments after leaving the game Sebastian went to his kitchen and prepared an instant soup which he enjoyed slowly at the entrance of his house observing the moon that loomed in the sky.
