Adrian wasn't a social butterfly like his sister- He wasn't outgoing, he didn't like sports even though he was relatively in good shape, he didn't like girls at all.
I mean, he knew he liked guys and he was okay with that- The problem was his mother, who wanted a grandchild. Adrian didn't know if men could get pregnant (Since technology was so advanced now), but even if they could, he didn't want a child at all. His mother didn't care he was gay- In fact, she loved it, she only wanted a grandchild! He ignored her whenever she asked if he had someone yet- Pffft! AS IF! He can't even go to the grocery store without thinking the entire store will look at him and suddenly decide they all hate him and he should be kicked out, imagine even thinking he would ask someone out!
Thankfully, he had work as an artist and could work from his apartment, never leaving if not necessary. He had money enough to buy a new capsule for himself so he could then play some games- He invested so much time in grindind levels and equipment to some MMORPGs that he ended up growing in the rankings, and since it attracted eyes to himself, people would try and steal from him- Which he responded with a sword on their faces, or a fireball to their faces. He always nicknamed his characters different names, so no one would recognize him in any game, and recently there was a new one who has just been released.
NewLife was the name and it was full immersion! There were a total of 10 main races with some sub-races! As he floated in the void of the new game, he watched as the opening cutscene of the game played before his eyes-
[Once upon a time, there was a peace-]
The scene opened in a beautiful world, the woman's voice that narrated it sounded so happy, so delighted- But then, the scene shattered into a sea of flames, black and purple smoke, as well as lighting hitting the ground.
[But then, a great ancient evil awoke-]
A giant humanoid made of fire and brimstone raised itself from the earth, a terrifying roar of anger and madness echoed, the very air shook as the roar tore through the speed of sound and exploded, the ground beneath shattering into pieces beyond visibility.
[Such evil was old, ancient, but not unstoppable-]
A golden hand descended from the heavens and pointed at the being of fire and brimstone, which upon the giant shattered into thousands of tiny, almost microscopic pieces- The screen zoomed into one of the shards, where it glowed golden and purple.
[But even after being destroyed, the Ancient Evil sill lived. And it spread-]
Each shard fell upon the ground, time moved forward as if being accelerated, pushed, rushed- The shards sank upon the ground furthe and further beyond. The screen changed to show one shard deep beneath the earth, a purple and red aura pushed the earth as it began growing like roots of a plant, until this energy pulled and condensed into a floating sphere of black that stood there.
[From its pieces, Dungeons were born.]
The spheres of black somehow created these rooms, and in each room there was a being, a creature to defend and protect the sphere- But the room was not enough, so the dungeon expanded deeped and wider, some even growing in towers, trees, ice, water, flesh and stars from the very sky. These spheres began seeping this black liquid, and from the chaos of darkness, monsters were born.
[The Gods decided that to protect their world, creation should fight.]
Dragons flew above a destroyed canyon, from where upon a giant worm jumped from beneath, they fought and roared before the screen cut off to another scene, this time, a green humanoid with leaves and roots for their body angrily brought their hands forward and clutched their fists, and nature answered- Roots from beneath grew and enveloped this rock and earth giant being, breaking it apart into nothing but crumbles of what it once was. However, the screen changed again, showing long-eared humanoids with bows and swords dying in a war, fire rained from the sky as one of the black spheres had grown into a draconic beast.
[Seeing that creation had no chance to fight alone, the Gods all decided-] The woman's voice cut, as a man spoke: ["Let's make something greater, someone greater. To fight for our creation, to fight and thrive."] The man's voice cut again as the woman from before continued to speak: [And that's when i came forth- "I know what we can do." I said, and then i did what i had to. That's when you were born, my beloved creation.]
On the screen a woman with long white hair and golden skin floated, her long angelic wings spread out as her blue eyes shone to him: ["Now, my new child, tell me- Evayne, Goddess of Relief and Reincarnation, what you wish to be."] A screen appeared before his eyes, where all races were listed:
