"Do you want to fully immersed in this action-packed game?"
Below the message box was two button with 'Yes' and 'No' on it. I was a little bit confuse and asked Max about it.
"Do you also have a message box shown on screen?"
"Yeah"
"So what should we do?"
"Definitely yes who doesn't want to be fully immersed in a game. I mean that's the whole point of making a game."
He persuaded me so we both press yes. Biggest regret of my life. So big that even peeing at my grumpy neighbour's house gate late night with my friends when he had taken our soccer ball in my childhood looks minute compare to it.
As soon as I pressed yes my whole body was electrocute and I fainted. After some unknown fucking time. I woke up in a black room. The first thought that entered my mind was, " I gonna find and beat the hell out of that electrician who guaranteed me and my family that there will be no electricity leakage for 5 yrs." Then I look around and saw a guy who is also waking up just like me. It was a white guy. So after he woke up fully. I called him.
"Hey bro are you alright?"
"Chukapop500 is that you?"
Yeah that's my gamer ID. Soon I realised whose voice this was.
"You're Max!"
I was shocked then I carefully looked at the person infront of me. He was a white guy around 1.8m tall with a chubby face and a little excess of fat in his body.....maybe a little be more excess of fat in his body.
"Dude I didn't know you were so....Big."
"And I didn't know you're so....so...smart?"
The corner of my mouth was twitching while I thought in my mind,"Fucker don't think I don't no that you're going to say small. I mean who the hell would know if a person is smart or not just by meeting for the first time."
Then we look around the room to search anything that we can find to escape from this room but couldn't find anything. I was starting to lose hope. Then Max looked at me with a serious face and said,
"Hey chukapop500, do you think we are...like kidnapped?"
"...Thanks genius. I didn't know that. For a while I thought we were decoration bought internationally from Nepal and America to liven up this empty black room."
I said angrily to him. But then I realise what I did so I quickly apologised.
"Sigh....Sorry for lashing out on you like that Max. I lost my cool there for a second."
"It's okay man. No worries. By the way we haven't introduce ourselves properly. Let's start with me. I'm Max, Max buckleman."
So all this time I was calling him by his real name, Didnt know that. He stared at as if he was saying it was my turn to say.
"I'm Kumar, Kumar Nachhiring."
"Kumar a-what-ring?"
"Nachhiring."
There was a moment of silence. Max thought for a while and finally said,
"Might as well call you by your gamer ID name 'chukapop500'. Its easier to say this than your real name."
I looked at him and imagine myself in a gunblazing battle with my teammates. Then suddenly my teammate shouts my name and says,"Chukapop500!!! Fire the rocket."
Before I even fire it, I would hear my enemies as well as my teammate laughing their ass out.
Even imagining it brought embarrassment to me so I told Max.
"Can you at least call me Kumar then."
"Hmm...nope not gonna happen."
"Why?"
"Because it suits you."
"...you know Max."
"What?"
" You're an asshole."
"....."
As we were talking, suddenly a virtual screen popped right infront of our eyes.
"Holy shit! Scare the hell out of me."
Max took a deep breath to calm himself down. While it was astounishing how the virtual screen popped right infront, my reaction was not as exagerated as Max was.
We both looked on the vitual screen. There we saw a message box which says,
"Congratulation for sucessfully entering the world 'Armour League'. You have been chosen as one of the players who will compete with other forces for power,wealth and anything you desire.
Before you begin your journey, you are advised to go to the weapon store to buy supply and weapon for your protection.
We hope you have a good time."
Both Max and I were dumbfounded. Since the technology of our world isn't so advance to project a virtual screen infront of our eyes then what was written on the screen must be true.
We thought being kidnapped was bad but being in a game world where the possibility of a bullet passing through our skull the next second was much worse.
We looked at each other and took a deep breath to calm ourselves and comprehend what was written on the message box.
"Hey Max, didn't the message told us to get our supplies and weapon from the weapon store?"
"Yeah?"
"So where is the store?"
Right after finished asking, a door suddenly appeared out of nowhere infront of us.
Suddenly Max looked at me and replied with voice similar to Gandalf.. or was supposed to be.
"Your answer lies beyond that door. My Child."
I started to imagine the possibility of me surviving with a teammate like him.
"God bless us."
I thought silently while we walked towards the door.
