In the morning, Arka, who was eating breakfast after exercising, didn't take his eyes off the game website that would be released today. Today is Saturday, so he has the opportunity to play it all day.
On the website Arka doesn't just wait for the clock to tick down, he also looks around for info about the game. In the game there is a class system which is divided into 2, namely the combat class and the production class.
Combat classes can be upgraded from beginner-class to advanced-class, then there is also a type of class that is very different from other classes. In terms of ability and how to get it, namely the special-class.
"Hmm... there's also such a thing, and it seems that a special class can only be owned by one person."
For the money system, the game uses Zist currency, which is divided into three types, namely copper, silver, and gold. And the comparison is, every 100 coppers are equivalent to 1 silver and for 1000 silvers are equivalent to 1 gold.
Several hours had passed, Arka didn't realize that it was already nine o'clock. And suddenly, on the website page a pop-up window appears.
•Adventure World has opened•
Arka immediately began to prepare his game device. All he needs to do is connect the device to the computer, then insert a flash drive into a connector on the computer.
The game is packaged in a flash disk that has a modern red design, and reads Adventure World. Which is where it says in the manual that one flash game can only be used for one human body data. In other words, only for one game avatar. And it takes deletion of the old avatar to create a new one, the flash drive is called CharDisk.
"Okay, I'm ready." Arka positioned his body on his back while wearing the Viviam device, as soon as he activated it, a hologram appeared on the front of the helmet, then his body also began to be scanned by a light that emerged from the helmet.
And after all the procedures had been done, Arka's vision darkened, he felt like he was entering a whirlpool—not too strong and soothing.
....
[ Welcome ]
[ Please choose the language ]
For a moment Arka was silent with his eyes wide open, the sudden change of place and mysterious voice made him be on guard for a moment. Until he realized that he had entered a virtual space.
"Well, that was quite a surprise. Alright, language… maybe using the game's default language would be better."
In accordance with his choice, Arka did not change his choice in the list of languages in front of him.
[ Language has been set to English ]
•Will automatically translate all game content to English•

[ Do you want to make a new data? ]
"Of course."

"Celestial? Demon? Could it be an exclusive race? Well, leaving that aside," his hand starts to move towards one of the race choices, ''Since I'll be choosing human as my race."
[ You have chosen the human race, are you sure? ]
"Yes."
The reason Arka chooses humans is because humans are said to be the most balanced in their abilities in all aspects. They are also very flexible in class selection, or you could say all classes will most likely suit them. In contrast to other races which might be a little more difficult to adjust to some classes.
[ Please customize your appearance ]
•Especially for the face, changes in appearance must contain at least 40% of the original appearance•
"Well, it's better for me to just be myself."
[ Appearance match : 100% ]
Arka could be said to have an above average face, with jet black hair and sharp red eyes. Arka's eye color is quite unique, but that's what sometimes makes him look scary.
[ Please choose a name for your character ]
A keyboard appeared out of thin air, and without thinking his hands started dancing from one letter to another.
"Hm… Z-E-N."
[ Zen : Name Available ]
Knowing the first name he chose was immediately available, he also showed a smile of satisfaction.

[ Character has been created ]
[ Do you want to hear a prologue for this world? ]
".... Huh? I guess hearing a little story isn't a bad thing."
Here the appearance around Arka begins to change into a landscape of forest land, mountains, villages, seas, and so on. Arka's position was right above the sky, he quite enjoyed it. Then the narrator begins to speak.
•Terarya•
''Terarya? So that's the name of this world? Pretty simple, but not bad."
[ In the beginning, the world was created by the god, Fanes. The world lived in harmony and was very peaceful. All races kept the balance with each other. But everything was destroyed because of the Evil War, the war between the two factions: Alastar and Vepar. ]
Here the scene starts to change, suddenly Arka is already in the middle of the battlefield.
Honestly, Arka had a hard time holding back his dizziness seeing the amount of blood and screams of death around him. Moreover, it looks very real.
[ Alastar is the faction led by the demon king and Vepar is the faction led by the undead king. The Evil War had a huge impact on the world, spreading hatred, despair, destruction, anger, revenge and the desire to kill each other. ]
[ Due to the gods inability to interfere in the affairs of beings in Terarya, the gods can only witness all events rise and fall. Then the gods made a decision. Together with the approval of the main god, they decided to bring forth heroes from each race to save the world. ]
[ With the union of all the heroes of various races. The heroes succeeded in making the Demon Lord and Undead King disappear from the world, and the armies of the two factions were successfully driven back. ]
[ After that victory the world recovered and became peaceful. Even so, hundreds of years later the Alastar and Vepar factions tried to recover, marked by the emergence of new leaders in both factions. And also another danger that might be more terrifying is coming soon. ]
[ Heroes who knew that are at their limit, their bodies are too old, some even already buried under. ]
[ Therefore the gods once again made another decision, which was to bring in a hero from another world who was stronger. In order to prevent Alastar and Vepar wreaking havoc, and to protect the world from other dangers. ]
[ And you are chosen to be one of those heroes, fight to protect this world from all threats to come. ]
•Story End•
"Ugh... the story is simple and easy to understand, but... the visualization given... it's quite scary and makes an uncomfortable feeling, they should have given a warning at the beginning of the story," complained Arka.
[ Achievements obtained - The First Player to Hear The Story to The End - Title {Good Listener} is obtained ]
•Good Listener•

"Human starting city? Ohh, so each race has a different starting city. I see, fine I'm going to Ashround city."
[ Confirmed ]
[ You will be transferred to Ashround town ]
[ Welcome to Adventure World ]
....
» Ashround Town, Clover Kingdom «
As soon as all the particles of Zen's body (Arka) are completely composed, a cold sensation of the wind can be felt on the face. When Zen looked up at the sky, the sun's rays instantly dazzled his eyes.
''Ugh....''
When his vision returned to normal, Zen didn't just stop, this time his eyes moved in all directions and he could see that around him a lot of players were also starting to appear one by one.
"Hah~ this is too realistic, maybe you could say it's really like my real body and the environment also has a very real sensation," Zen said along with various body movements.
