It's been a year since that day. The day my brother disappeared. I had just sat down in my seat after pushing the worries about my brother to the back of my mind. When all of a sudden ,a monotone voice sounded above everyone. It felt like it came from outer space.
"Your world has been selected by the heavenly will as the next world to enter that new order. Prepare for the descent of the game world!!"
Those words alone decided the fate of the Earth that day. None of us knew where that voice had come from ,but my brother made me read enough novels with him to know that this isn't good. I left the classroom immediately and ran home to try and get ready. But I have no clue how to prepare. The only thing that popped into my mind was to get close to my parents. I thought they might have some kind of clue on what to do. I desperately ran until I reached the front door of our house. I opened the door to see mom and dad going around the house and getting ready to drive.
"Mom ,Dad!"
She huffed out a cry as she was out of breath and wobble towards her parents. As they hugged each other ,the voice came once again.
"Time to prepare is up! The new world shall descend upon Earth! Good Luck."
It wasn't much time at all. Before every human on earth blacked out.
..................
Back then she still was just an innocent little girl. Now she was hardened by the "game" ,or so it was called. To her ,it was just hell. Although it was called a game ,you couldn't respawn. The game was played with your own life. You don't have a choice either. It's play or die. Anyone that is weak will die in this world. She had awakened the priest class. After joining a party to support ,she was tricked and almost lost her virginity to a couple scumbags. Thankfully her Dad showed up and protected her ,but because of that he had injured his legs. Later on he was killed by a monster. He was the only one in our family with a combat class. He was a warrior ,but after dying the only ones left were her and her mom. A priest and a farmer. They could make a living off of her mother's crops but most of their income was from her dad's hunting. Without him ,they could barely feed themselves. Eventually they ended up encountering a red guild that wanted to capture them and keep them as slaves. They ran away into the deep mountains since the red guild didn't dare to go into the mountains. We took another route and we returned back to our home. It wasn't the greatest and with no money to do maintenance ,the house was old and broken down. It almost wasn't safe to live there. She arrived back home. A year had passed since the game descended and her brother disappeared. They almost lost their freedom ,but she still didn't collapse. She placed her mother on the couch nearby as she had already fainted from exhaustion. After setting her down ,she went and locked the door. As she was done ,she heard footsteps. She hastily turned around. Her mother had fainter and she should be the only person in here.
"Who's there!"
As they couldn't afford the electricity bill ,the lights aren't on and it's hard to see inside the house. She turned around and ran in front of where her mother was sleeping. As she put her guard up ,ready to stab the opponent with her backup knife if he attacked. She heard a familiar voice.
"Xue'er ,It's me. I know it's dark but you can't possibly forget your older brother ,right?"
