Zyair controlled RiverSun into walking towards the full length mirror in his character room. Every room has this mirror. This mirror is like a menu panel of everything. Zyair has a shortcut key for his game avatar and stats, but when it comes to opening an instance he still needs to see this mirror.
Once Zyair's RiverSun arrived in front of the mirror, he clicked the mirror itself using the mouse and he saw his character tap the mirror rhythmically like doing some kind of ritual. Seeing this, Zyair still can't help but cringe.
"Why don't they just make the avatar say 'mirror, mirror, on the wall' or something like the Evil Queen. Doing it like this makes me think of the anime Soul Devourer. But Maka did it the cool way, unlike this bloody game that didn't even have a slight bit of "cool" on its program."
Watching his avatar doing all those cringing action, Zyair felt as though he was the one doing all those things. Especially, right at the moment, he recalled doing exactly the same thing to Qantas when they were flirting. Zyair poke Qantas firm chest like a shy maiden inviting his lover to f*ck. Now, watching RiverSun tap the mirror with a face identical to his, Zyair felt as though he was poking the mirror like how he flirted with Qantas before. Zyair frowned, wanting to destroy that mirror, unfortunately he couldn't so he just swallowed this anger in his stomach.
Thankfully, the screen changed. It turned black and a book appeared, turning it's page in a quick manner. Below it, text continues to pop out.

Then after seconds of waiting, an old parchment went flying from the book to the screen, like that old parchment was ripped from the book.
[Cinderella's Wonderland (Tutorial Instance)
Difficulty: Hard
Classification: Envy
Do player, RiverSun want to enter the Fairy tale?]
Zyair saw this parchment stuck on his screen. Within just a glance, Zyair brows were already forming a deep frown. "Why is it still a tutorial? I thought I only needed to play 7 tutorial instances. I'm already a resident of the Dream World. Why do I need to play another one? Is this game broken?" Unhesitatingly, under Zyair's annoyance and doubt he exits the game and enters it again.
In order not to watched that d*mned intro vid. Once again, Zyair went to get a drink and came back in time to see the video ends. Zyair didn't do anything else and immediately went towards the mirror. After the avatar's rhythmic tapping, the same book appeared with a black background.

Seeing the same thing after refreshing the game, Zyair scratched the back of his head in irritation.
"The hell is this?! I'm done playing envy. Why the bloody hell do I have to play it again?!"
That's right, Zyair played the 'Goose Girl' for envy before.
Zyair doesn't know much about fairy Tales. He only knew some because of the D channel. Because Zyair is an ultimate fan of the Barbel Universe. Since D channel bought Barbel, from time to time, Zyair could get a glimpse of some D princesses. That's how he knew them.
Nevertheless, thanks to Qantas, Zyair knew the fairy tales in this game are not the same fairy tales in the original stories. Like that newcomer Cinderella. In which story did Cinderella have Wonderland? And which Wonderland is it? Alice didn't even own a wonderland, she just accidentally came inside a wonderland. For Cinderella having a wonderland, then...was she still Cinderella?
Within those seven instances Zyair already played, according to Qantas, none of them were the same as the usual Fairytales.
Like the 'Goose Girl'. It was classified as envy because the maid envied the princess and wanted to be the princess herself. The villain is the princess's maid but in the game, it was the princess who turned out to be the Villain.
In that instance, RiverSun became the goose shepherd. Right~ "The Goose Girl" is a role playing instance, which made Zyair irritated the most. Although, it was a computer game and all he needed to do was to control his own avatar, read the dialogues and choose what to say according to the options like some otome game... Nevertheless, it was still hateful and troublesome.
The fun in RPG games is to attack, roam around the dungeon and f*ck up the dungeon boss. Though Zyair is not a gamer, he still knew how to play a little. But this game really irritated him. It's like this game is made to kill him in the end. He doesn't know, but Zyair thought like this. Zyair and this game ain't meant to exist at the same time!
Going back, the main task of that instance is to pluck a strand of the princess's beautiful golden hair. It was so absurd that Zyair almost blew up the whole computer set. He even thought that his own golden hair is much more beautiful than that princess.
Right~ Zyair is right with that. Just when Zyair almost completed the main task, the princess suddenly... blackened. RiverSun has the same hair as Zyair, it was bright golden blonde, and is much more beautiful, shiner and silkier than the princess's golden hair.
Goose Girl is Zyair's first instance and the sudden turn of events made Zyair so shocked that he forgot to control his character on time when the princess suddenly attacked him. RiverSun was almost shaved bald because of the sudden attack, fortunately, Qantas was just beside him at that time. Qantas took control of the mouse and keyboard and counter-attacked. In the end, Qantas finished the instance by shaving the princess's hair bald. Qantas even used that golden hair as a material for RiverSun's golden whip. Yup, it was made out of the princess's hair. Qantas even complained once, that Rapunzel's hair is much sturdier and a much better material for making a whip than this Goose Girl. More so, Rapunzel's hair could make a long whip.
That made Zyair dumbfounded. That instance is the easiest one. As Zyair earned more and more life points, the instance became more and more difficult as well.
