"Ugh...."
When he woke up, Xuan Feng Ye felt his whole body attacked by unbearable pain, causing him to let out a groan of pain. He wanted to move, but his body was bound to something and he couldn't even move his fingers, and his vision was completely blocked by something, not allowing him to see where he is.
The pain lasted for an hour, if his sense of time was correct. Thankfully, the pain was less than before he fainted, which somewhat relieved him. He still couldn't move his body at all, so he just waited and waited until eventually a voice sounded from somewhere.
[Greetings, Players! I am Hao Shi Mu, the creator of Hell Online! I am more known by my other identity though, which is Kah'Vu, God of Destruction!]
When he heard the name that was said at the end, he was heavily shocked. If not for the fact that his body was bound and he couldn't move, Xuan Feng Ye would of most likely ended up kneeling onto the ground out of shock.
[You are probably wondering what is happening, correct? Let me explain! You, who are known as Players, are now living in the world of Fu'Zha, which is the world Hell Online takes place in! The game was not a real game, but rather it was something created by us Gods of Fu'Zha to gather new living beings to our world!]
He really wanted to deny the words said by the person claiming to be a God, but he honestly couldn't. The reason is the mere fact that they area being spoken to by this God, and that he knows of their Player identities, and the fact that they all fainted inside of a safe zone.
[You may not believe, but it is the truth! You are no longer Players! Rather, you are NPC's! If you die, you stay dead! Unlike the game, where you can revive! You will still have everything from the game, like the Status and skills, as well as the ability to level up and increase your strength! Aside from that, this isn't like a game at all! No quests shall be issued! No revivals shall be made! No logging out shall be allowed! You shall forever be a resident of this world until death!]
After the words were spoken, Xuan Feng Ye felt something constrict against his heart and soul once again, but this time it was more intense! The pain he felt would be enough to kill him 10 times over if it was like before, but for some reason he couldn't even faint!
He could not tell how long the pain lasted for, but it could not of been that long. He was trying to keep track of time and felt only an hour passed, but it was probably longer than that.
[What you just felt was your heart and soul being absorbed into your new body! For those of you who chose to stay human, congratulations! For those of you who chose a new race, good luck! Act like you would on Earth! Live to your best, and rise to the peak of the world! The only way to return to reality is by slaying us Gods! I await your arrival!]
He could finally move his body and open his eyes, so he slowly opened his eyes and saw a stone roof above his head. He slightly moved his head and saw he was on a wooden bed and there was a person dressed in white clothes doing something nearby.
Perhaps hearing him move, the person in white clothes turns around and looks at Xuan Feng Ye. Once he saw he was awake, a smile appeared on his face and he hurried over with a bottle in hand, handing it to Xuan Feng Ye.
"You are awake! That is great. Thousands of people suddenly fainted in the town square, which shocked everyone around. You are currently within the main hospital. Here, drink this healing potion, your body is very weak right now. You have been asleep for 6 days, after all."
When he heard he was asleep for 6 days, he was shocked, and it probably showed on his face, as the doctor held some pity on his face. Xuan Feng Ye grabbed onto the healing potion and he could tell his body was very weak right now, that it was slightly hard to even move his arms.
He brought the bottle of potion to his mouth and drank it all in one go, handing the now empty bottle back to the doctor, who placed it in a small bin. Xuan Feng Ye felt a warmth spread throughout his whole body and his body was gradually getting better, and he could move it properly barely an hour later.
He had asked the doctor what happened during the past 6 days, and he kindly explained to him. Apparently, thousands of people in many different towns and cities all over the world just suddenly fainted for no apparent reason.
Doctors from all over were sent to each town to see what happened. A few demons were spotted among the fainted, and were killed instantly due to having 'sneaked' into human civilization, which made Xuan Feng Ye glad he had found out how to hide his wings after he joined the game back then.
A total of 47 thousand demons were killed throughout all towns and cities combined, which shocked Xuan Feng Ye. He knew that they were all 'Players' that joined the game with him, and deaths are a true death now, so that is 47 thousand people from Earth that died instantly like that.
The final conclusion was that some mad cult had spread poison that causes people who inhale it to faint and have their body weaken during the sleep. Apparently, a few people have already died due to this, so it even further proved that was correct.
No wonder his body felt so weak when he awoke, Xuan Feng Ye thought to himself. He felt himself shudder at the thought of if he didn't wake at this time, wouldn't he be like those who died due to this? He shook his head hurriedly to get rid of that thought.
He was wondering what he should do now. Should he go out and kill monsters to level up? Or should he stay within the safe confines of a city and live his life like that? Fallen Angels have a lifespan of 400 years, so he gave up on living a safe life and figured he should go kill monsters.
After all, didn't that God say it? If his strength gets high enough that he can kill the Gods, he could go back to Earth. Thinking like this, he couldn't wait to go out and kill monsters, but he can't move properly enough yet. Since he had nothing to do, he brought up his Status.

'Luckily Analyze seems to be a rare skill, and nobody had it, or else, wouldn't i have died without knowing why?' When he thought of this, his body once again shuddered briefly. He saw that an Age tab was added to his Status now, which wasn't there before.
His age was the exact same as on Earth, so he figures that his soul really did get absorbed into this new body of his. At this thought, he wasn't as sad as he thought he would be. He was an orphan on Earth and had nobody he was close to, not to mention he found Earth to always be boring to him.
Although he knows that this is a dangerous situation he is in, he can't help but be secretly excited. Wasn't this the reason he wanted the game? So he could have a thrill like this? Rather than it being a game, it is no his reality.
He was bored so he took a look at his Inventory again. He found 100 Gil inside, which is his current amount of money. What confused him was the paper. It changed completely, which he can tell just by looking in the Inventory, so he decided to bring it out and looked at it.
On the previously blank paper, there was now words. He was somewhat interested, as well as confused by this change, so he decided to look closer at the paper and read it.
[To you who were of the lucky 1000! This is your true bonus package! After you are converted to true citizens of this world, this paper will change. This is not a mere paper! After you have finished reading this paper, you will be given a gift deserving of you! Us Gods have all been bored and wanted to change the world up, so he created the game, Hell Online on Earth to gather 'Players' to entertain us! You already know this, so I shan't explain further! This paper will disappear as soon as you get your true bonus package! Good luck!]
After reading it, he was somewhat confused, but more than that, he was happy that he gets another bonus package. After all, he got 5 Stat Points and the Analyze skill from his bonus package, and that wasn't even the real one. Like this, wouldn't he get something a lot better?
Shortly later, the paper did indeed disappear like it said it would. He was wondering what his bonus package was going to be, so he patiently waited. A while later, a few screens popped up in his vision.
[You have obtained your true bonus package!]
[You have obtained the following: 5000 Gil, 5 Stat Points, 2 Skill Points, one Dark Skill, and Black Clothes(3).]
[Your obtained Dark Skill is Dark Nova!]
[Dark Nova(1/5): Shoot out a large beam of Dark magic of of your finger. An explosion will be generated upon contact with anything solid, dealing massive damage. 7 day cooldown. 100 Mana per use.]
His mouth nearly popped open in shock. He can understand the Gil and Stat Points, but what the heck is with the Skill Points and Skill? Not to mention such an overpowered skill, at that! He opened his Inventory and found 5000 Gil added to it and a set of black clothing.
He was still in shock, but he calmed down shortly after. He let out a sigh and was glad he won the free Virtual Helmet and game, even if he got trapped in this new world because of it. At least it will make him stronger, which is good.
He thinks for a while before he uses his 5 Stat Points. As for his 2 Skill Points, he decided to put both of them into his Dark Arrow skill, rather than his Dark Nova. The reason is simple: He can't use Dark Nova without fainting yet, and Dark Arrow will help more.
[You have put 2 points into Intelligence. Intelligence increased from 8 > 10.]
[You have put 3 points into Wisdom. Wisdom increased from 6 > 9.]
[You have put a Skill Point into Dark Arrow(1/5). Dark Arrow(1/5) increased to Dark Arrow(2/5).]
[Dark Arrow(2/5): Shoot out 2 Arrows from your hand after a short chant. Deals damage based on targets Magic Resistance. 30 second cooldown. 10 Mana per use.]
[You have put a Skill Point into Dark Arrow(2/5). Dark Arrow(2/5) increased to Dark Arrow(3/5).]
[Dark Arrow(3/5): Shoot out 3 Arrows from your hand after a short chant. Deals damage based on targets Magic Resistance. 20 second cooldown. 10 Mana per use.]
He felt that it was worth it to put those 2 Skill Points into Dark Arrow rather than Dark Nova. He can't use Dark Nova at all unless he wants to use all 100 of his Mana, which would make him faint. As for Dark Arrow, not only did the number of Arrows increase, even the cooldown reduced slightly, making it even better.
He looked at the Virtual Clock that is in his vision and saw that it was currently 8 pm, so he decided to sleep for now and then he would start killing monsters tomorrow, when he is more rested and it isn't safe at night, anyways. He lay down on the bed again and closed his eyes, quickly falling asleep.
