I opened my eyes in the land of the living once more, in a bedroom, the glaring afternoon sun seeping through the slightest gaps in my curtain-covered windows. Gradually rising up, I slowly assimilated the memories of my body before I awakened, finding my name to be Tengoku and the last living member of my family.
"Haaa, I had hoped I could live a normal life with a family of my own"
'I guess that won't be happening'
I guess some good news is the Kirigaya household is right next door, and I have a fairly close friendship with them since their part of the reason that I can live in my parents' house and avoid emancipation. Looking around my room before going forward to pick up my boken and give it a few light swings,
"Hmm, so I practiced the sword to keep in shape, maybe because that's what I wanted subconsciously to prepare myself for the game to come."
I looked at my hands and decided to use the magic I got to create a skill card, to give myself transcended level armed and unarmed combat so that it didn't matter what weapon I decided to use, it was as simple to use as it was to breathe. I tore the card and it broke into motes of light before being absorbed into my body… that's when I knew I messed up because I dropped to the floor and started to spasm out of control from the feeling of going through multiple centuries of training to achieve transcended levels of combat, all packed into a few seconds.
"Man, that was…" I stopped talking and just dragged my blanket over to cover me and went back to sleep, thinking about how I should have thought before I acted.

BANG BANG BANG
I woke up with a startle as I heard someone banging on my door
"Goku, are you okay?"
"I'm okay aunty" I replied with a shout, dragging myself to open the door to the lady standing just outside. She had her dark oak-coloured hair clipped up, and a slight frown of concern on her face, standing at 5'5.
"Are you sure, I could hear you screaming from our house and got worried that something might have happened to you, and you're not looking very well with you struggling to stand and pale-faced, and I got a call from the school? that you didn't show up…"
"I'm fine aunty, just a little under the weather is all, but I should get to bed, it's getting late and I'm sorry for missing school without telling you, I hope you can forgive me," I said,
"It's okay, just make sure to tell me if there's a next time"
After reassuring my aunty that I was fine again, I closed the door and wander back to my bed, before thinking about what other skills and items I should make, like my own super compact supercomputer and nerve wear so I don't have to waste money on buying that stuff, and then downloading SAO, I could also make a training ground where you can't die no matter how hard or heavily your hit.
'Anyway I'll start creating all the stuff I can think of tomorrow morning, after a good night's sleep'
And with my final thoughts for the day, I nodded off to sleep.
