At a wild office party, Alex went all out on the booze and ended up totally plastered. He felt like he was spinning in a dizzy haze, as if the whole world was doing somersaults around him.
Right then, a voice that sounded like it was straight out of a sci-fi movie echoed in his head.
[Galactic Announcement: Everyone will be transported to the planet Astralon in six hours.]
[Countdown: 05:59:52]
[Here, everyone gets a fair shot at supremacy.]
[Astralon is massive, larger than a star system, home to a hundred thousand races, filled with opportunities, dangers, and challenges.]
[You start with a castle and a barracks.]
[Summon troops, raid resources, grow your empire, dominate the planets.]
[Here, you can have everything you desire—power, wealth, even immortality!]
[Lords, go forth and conquer!]
Alex couldn't care less about the voice; he just wanted to crash and sleep off the booze. He wasn't in the mood for games!
But in the next moment, he snapped open his eyes and found himself in a strange room.
[The game is about to begin, please select your character's appearance]
[Available genders: A Male B Female C Other]
Though confused, as a seasoned gamer, Alex had a peculiar habit.
He wasn't keen on staring at male characters' ass, so he almost always played as female characters!
So, completely sloshed, Alex took this all as just another game and instinctively picked option B.
[Gender confirmed, generating character appearance...]
Under the influence of alcohol, Alex couldn't hold up any longer and just collapsed onto the floor, passing out.
When Alex woke up again, he found himself in an unfamiliar room, and despite it being a scorching summer, the room was surprisingly cool.
Alex lifted his head to scope out the surroundings when suddenly a strand of hair slipped past his ear, and he was totally gobsmacked.
"White hair! When did I turn into an old dude?"
"Wait, why's this hair so long?"
Alex blurted out in surprise, but what came out was a crisp, pleasant female voice.
He shot up from the floor, and immediately, a pair of boobs caught his attention.
Pfft...
Alex was stunned. Was this game seriously this realistic?
He then peeked between his legs and his face turned beet red...
Alex couldn't believe how lifelike this game was; it felt like he was literally in a woman's body. Now, he was starting to wonder, is this really just a game or is it reality?
If it's just a game, he could just log out and end this madness. But if it's real, suddenly switching from a dude to a chick was seriously awkward!
Thinking this, Alex couldn't help but peek again and suddenly thought, well, being a girl isn't too bad, lol...
Right then, a virtual panel appeared in front of Alex, displaying some basic info about his current state.
Name: Alex
Age: 18
Height: 5.5 feet
Weight: 95 pounds
Measurements: 33 / 23 / 34
Appearance Rating: SSS
Though the body looked great, Alex couldn't just stay naked, so he grabbed some clothes from a nearby dresser.
Alex shyly tried on a bra, but struggled big time to clasp it from behind.
Then it hit him, why not clasp it in front and spin it around? Genius!
Afterward, Alex changed into a white sailor dress.
"Why does this feel a bit tight? No, wait, it's just the boobs are too big!"
Once dressed, Alex's figure was undeniably prominent.
Alex slipped on a pair of white knee-high socks, pulling them up to his calves, then looked down at his tiny feet in white socks.
"These feet are so small, they're smaller than my hands."
Then Alex reached out with his hands and suddenly realized they were tiny too. Oops, he had forgotten he had crossed over.
Next, Alex found a pair of black leather shoes under the bed, picked them up, and saw they were only size 36 (EU).
Alex put on the shoes, got out of bed, and walked over to a full-length mirror to check out his reflection. His beautiful face was even prettier than models at Paris Fashion Week. The white sailor dress paired with white knee-high socks exuded a youthful vibe.
The real Alex, introverted and self-conscious, wouldn't even dare to talk to a girl like this, but here in this confusing game-or-reality scenario, his dream had come true.
Alex admired his reflection in the mirror.
"Ah, it's a pity it's a game, such a waste."
Just then, a divine-sounding voice echoed in Alex's mind again.
[Galactic Announcement: Preparation phase has ended, you will enter the continent of Eldoria in one minute.]
[Countdown: 00:00:58]
"What the heck, am I not already in the game?"
Alex realized something was off and instinctively tried to quit the game. But despite trying everything, there was no option to exit!
"No way! Can someone tell me if this is just a prank?"
