CHAPTER 2: Fantasia Chronicle Online (FCO)
It has been 16 years since I was reincarnated by the gods in this world. I have come to know that this world is a parallel world, unlike the earth that I used to know. And I'm reincarnated in the Philippines.
Here, the current year is 2023, which is almost identical to my previous world; it's just that my age doesn't match. In my previous world, I was 27 years old; nothing much is remarkable, but here I'm 16 years old.
In this world, the technology is more advanced than in my previous world; the difference is at least 200 years.
But unlike what I imagine in an advanced world, this one is strange because the only change is in the gadgets and appliances, while the high-rise buildings, transportation, and a lot more are almost identical to my previous world.
Well, at least this year is the most exciting year of my life, because a month from now on (FCO), or Fantasia Chronicle Online, this world's first ever real-life virtual reality will be released officially.
The creation of the world's first ever virtual reality games is the result of a billionaire collaboration consisting of 17 members with a net worth ranging from 55 billions at the lowest to 270 billions at the highest.
The whole process of creating these virtual reality games lasted 10 whole years, but in the end, the result was success.
I also got to know the reason those billionaires created this: "We feel like the world is ready to advance once more, so we will first create this and slowly advance everything," but everyone knows that it's impossible if that's what they really wanted because, in the end, they are businessmen. There's no such thing as goodwill, and even if there is, it's not that pure.
Mc While thinking about this, I suddenly heard a voice say, "Hey Alex, get down here."
[Mc pov]
Mc answers the unknown person's voice, "Yeehh, coming down, sis."
Now that the speaker is identified, it was Anne J. Hanma, the big sister of the MC. Alex J.hanma
[Anne pov]
Anne was thinking in her head, 'Hayysss, this little brother of mine has really been too strange since birth. He never cried, and even if he felt like pooping, he would only make noise and not cry at all. At age 4, when he went to kindergarten, he never got along with the kids the same age as him. At the age of 7, he suddenly started running. At first, we thought he wanted to play, but two years later, we suddenly saw him doing push-ups. That was too strange.
At the age of 7, he suddenly started running. At first, we thought he wanted to play, but two years later, we suddenly saw him doing push-ups. That was too strange.
When he reached 12, he said he was going to explore the surroundings. He started at 10 a.m. but only came back at 4 p.m., and what's more, he's full of scratch. Oh, god, what's he doing? That's what we all had in mind. We tried asking him, but he only answered that he slipped, "Bruhh, it can fool many fooled kids, but not me, the genius of the family, and even mother and father are kind of suspicious, but not my big brother; he's kind of slow, so yeah, nevermind.
For a week he will always do that and even ask mother for lunch food to bring with him so that time we really follow him secretly but damn we lost him even after 2 weeks of doing that we will always lose him so father and mother decided to confront him and ask him if he needs anything so that he can stop what he's doing but he will always say he slips for months like that mother and father decide that they will allow what even he's doing if he follows the time limit that is start
from 9am to 12pm and like a miracle my little brother agree.
So we stopped pestering him for what he was doing all that time, and he also started coming home with little injuries. After months, he came back like he only went for a walk because there were no injuries or even small scratches, so the family went peaceful, and now he's 16, but no friends, girlfriend, or even his classmates are strangers to him. Hayyssss, my poor little brother, just what can I do to help you change for the better?'
[Mc pov]
While going down the stairs, he suddenly remembered everything that happened starting at the age of 7. 'At that time, I tried to do exercise slowly until my body got used to it, and then I tried hard training so that my body got stronger. and when I reached 12, I tried fighting thugs that I encountered in some dark alleys and got some hard fights but at least I was victorious. At that time, my parents got really worried, but what can I do if that's the only way I know I will get stronger? My family is poor and I have no money to hire a fighting instructor, so I need to go the hard way. At that time, my common sense was that real fighting will make you stronger, so yeah, dumb, but now the result is obvious.
I'm fucking stronger than three people. Physics combine to mean my skin, flesh, bone, 6 senses, and regeneration are a combination of 3 people. Now I can lift a weight of 750kg if I go full strength, and in those times I was fighting, I tried destroying gangs secretly. My age at that time was 14.
So for 2 whole years, I destroyed 5 gangs consisting of at least 20–30 members who only used knives, so at least not that hard. My fighting technique also got stronger and firmer.
I also stole that money that the gangs collected so that I would have funds for my every need and also secretly build my arsenal, like knives, samurai pistols, heavy weapons, even grenades. You can call me a vigilante, but I don't do any crime other than destroying gangs, so don't hate my background.
I also got a bounty for my destruction because the government put a bounty of 100 million pesos in a dollar; it's 2 million, which is huge, but thankfully I'm not operating in my city; I go to another city every time I cause destruction. My existence is also like a shadow because I'm so cautious that it's impossible for me to be discovered. The proof is that I'm still here, safe and sound.'
While my appearance can be called normal, my physics are insane. I'm Filipino, but my height is fucking 195 cm, which is hella strange. Even my family tried to put me in the hospital for a checkup, but I know I'm fine. I didn't agree, as I also don't want my family to know every knife scar I suffered after fighting gangs. That was one year after they stopped checking my body, because at that time I didn't suffer any scratches from thugs anymore.
Before the FCO started, I bought the capsule needed to operate the VR game and waited for
one month. While waiting, I did a lot of preparation, one of which was to exchange money for a total of 20 million pesos, which is 400 thousand dollars, and I got a total of 4 million gold in exchange, which is a good starting amount. All I needed to do was wait.
So one month passed since the FCO started operating, and I went to my room and used the capsule. When I was inside the capsule, a choice appeared.

[Server]
I chose to sign in, and everything went dark when light appeared. I'm standing in the sky.
A second pass an angel appeared and said "what your reason that you want to play this game"
[MC POV]
I answer "Just trolling"
Angel said
"Then choose your class"
[Sword]
[Spear]
[Dagger]
[Bow]
[Shield]
[Martial artist]
[Mage]
[Mc pov]
I didn't make things long and choose,
"I choose martial artist."
The angel said,
"Then good luck to your new life."
After saying that, my sight turned dark, and when my sight returned, I was standing on the roof of a small house in the village. When I was about to jump from the roof, who is only 4 meters in height, a notification appeared.
[You have been transported to a random place.]
[Location: Ignot Village]
[Mc pov]
Mc thought
'So this place is called Ignot Village. After jumping from the roof, I strolled the place until I appeared in the street and chose to stroll again for a whole hour. This time, I got every piece of information I needed to know and started heading to the gate to hunt monsters. As I'm still level 0, I wasn't allowed to do a quest from the villager. Now that I think about it, I still didn't check my status.'
[Mc pov]
Mc said "STATUS"
and appeared an blue color square containing the status
