GAME : DOMINATION

In a suburban town of Marilao, an upcoming city of District 4 where many commercial establishments littered.

Dozens of vehicles and people crowded around as they come and go to their whereabouts.

Going beyond a bridge near the market, besides an electric plant and behind an eye-catching restaurant lays the residential area called Lila Homes.

Mansions and townhouses can be seen inside, as well as modest family homes. It is a quiet neighborhood composing of middle and rich social classes.

In the flood zone area of the subdivision where five townhouses are group together. A young lad can be seen dozing about on his chair.

Suddenly, the lad was startled awake by a sound.

<< "Ding~ Dong ~" >>

Angelo Cruz or Gelo by those who know him was startled.

"What the hell was that?" Baffled, he scratches his head as he looks around. Seeing no one, he shrugged his shoulders and is planning to doze again when something appeared before him along with a loud chime.

<< "Ding~ Dong ~! Congratulations! You are the 1 millionth player. One of the lucky chosen ones who has been given the right to become a gamer and the last person to be chosen among the 99.986% non-player human population! You are now part of the 0.014% who has become a gamer. Congratulations! Congratulations! Congratulations! " >>

" W-what? Am I dreaming?" Eyes spinning, Angelo mumbled to himself. As he rubs his eyes to clear his sleepiness away, a new chime sounded and another glowing prompt appeared before him.

<<" Ding~ Dong~! As the lucky 1 millionth player, you have been rewarded with a prize! Congratulations!!!" >>

A glowing treasure chest appears before him and he stares at it stunned. Suddenly, he slaps himself. A resounding smack was heard and a loud yelp followed it.

Ouch... I'm really not dreaming, am I? What the hell is this? Have I died and reincarnated?

No... Last I check I'm still on Earth and have not died so... What the hell!

Angelo taps the glowing treasure chest and it abruptly spins upward then bursting with a flash of colors.

<< " Tada~! You have received an A grade aid companion!" >>

An egg flashing with different colors appeared bouncing up and down in the air.

"An aid companion? And first, of it's an A grade? This thing has grades and stuff eh..."

He curiously taps the egg and another brilliant light appears obscuring the egg. Angelo squints his eyes from the sudden brightness and when the light dies down, a shadow figure can be seen revealing a...

A cat...

A cat... really? Moreover, it looks cartoonish! I admit it's pretty cute, the one you can't help but coo over but... it's a cat.

The cat has black fur with white spots on its eyes, paws, and belly. Angelo carefully scrutinized it and he noticed a textbox above the cat's head.

This should be where I give it its name...

What name should I give it...

Blackie? No... Kuro? No, it still means the same. Max, Alexander, Bebop? King? Chaos?

Uugh... What the heck, I'll just name it Muning* then.

With the name inputted, a prompt appears.

<< A grade aid companion 'MUNING' registered and bonded to gamer Angelo Cruz >>

Suddenly, a glowing blue icon appeared above Muning's head with a text below it.

<< Muning Lvl 1>>

Muning opened its eyes and cat and human stared at each other.

"Nyaaah! Hello, master~ I am Muning nya~ A certified A grade aid companion. I am here to help you in your journey as a gamer nya~"

Muning introduced as it spins around excitedly.

Light flashes on its eyes as it continued.

"Normally nya~, A gamer can only acquire an aid when they become level 40 nya~ But as the lucky 1 millionth player, you have acquired me! An A grade companion to help you nya~" Muning said proudly, lifting its chin as it did so.

"Oh...? What can you do exactly?" Angelo asked as he lounge on his chair lazily.

"There are a lot of things I can do nya~ I'm a well of information, as long as you ask me anything about the game I can answer nya~ I can also help you with battles nya~ and many more nya~" It stated while waving its head cutely.

"Anything about the game eh... Then you can be my tutorial guide" He said tiredly as he curiously taps on Muning.

A prompt appeared with Muning's information inside.

As he looks back to his status, he saw a peculiar thing.

"Hey, Muning... Why was my MP locked?"

Muning twirled and look at Angelo's status.

"Nyaa?... Oh! That's because you haven't got the skill for it nyaa~ You have to have <> and <> nyaa~"

"Aah..."

Angelo sweatdrops when he saw that his highest skill is being lazy.

Lol, it's my greatest skill indeed...

"Nyaa?... Don't worry nyaa~ I'm sure it has good things nyaa~" Muning consoles to his master. But inside Muning thought

Nyaa... Oh my GM nyaa~ my master is a bum nyaa~ what am I gonna do nya~

"Well whatever I guess"

Angelo taps the Laze skill and a prompt appears presenting its information.

"Woah! A totally cheat skill appeared!" Angelo said in mock enthusiasm. Meanwhile, Muning's jaw drops as he saw this. Regaining his composure, Muning spins in excitement for Angelo.

"Wow nyaa! For your level nyaa~, this skill is really a big advantage nyaa~ With this, you don't have to worry about being killed at the moment nyaa~" Muning clap excitedly, only to see his master already sleeping on his chair.

"Nyaa?!"

Muning float over to his master and spin around him.

"Wake up nyaa! Mou...sleeping at a time like this... That truly takes skill nyaa~ Aren't you supposed to be excited about all of this nyaa?!" Muning complains, only to get a shock when prompts appeared around his master.
