I built most of my life on playing VRMMORPG.I grew attached to them and them to me.The game that was deeply rooted in me was the infamous CONQUEST OF GODS. I invested countless hours and cash as I grinded into the night and so on during the day.
The game itself began with great promise and at first sight anyone would agree,but after sometime the admirable good game ethics and etiquette slowly vanished and it turned into a game filled with bloodshed.
Everyone wanted the top spot so badly that they even turned to killing their own friends if need there be. But what everyone had painfully forgotten is that in order to get to the top they would need the aid of said friends,Pretty ironical,right?. Well,even if the only way in defeating the high-ranked beings of the game seemed to be through teamwork,I didn't follow that path.
I strived to achieve absolute power and authority in its majesty.And that is how I came to be known as Spectre,grandmaster of C.O.G¹,the max-level player.
And even as the players who had built their fame throught the game lost their pride to go on any further and abandoned their names,I didn't dwindle.

(An intense battle emanated throughout the ninth hell.)
!!Klang!!
!!Klang!!
"I'll commend your bravery for reaching this far human challenger²," said a powerful entity who resembled a feminine human being a side from the twins horns the protruded from both sides of it's skull,dressed in clothing that would show signs of nobility and authority in the realm of demons I presumed,all though it slightly revealed some skin around the waist and with no sleeves whatsoever."but that's all there is, do you really think that I [LUCIFIEL], Demon progenitor and ruler of the nine hells, can be defeated by a mere god's apostle," the being continued.
"Why don't we find out," I replied with sheer arrogance. The entity,who was the ruler of demons grinned at my statement. " I'll commend your spirit as well,tell me 'brave one' who is your patro..."
Just as the progenitor was about to finish, Damian had already warped behind her for a surprise attack.
"Fwoosh"
"Splurt!"
"You talk to much."he said as he let off a grin.
"Kkuk!"
Damian had managed to land a fatal hit on the demon progenitor's abdomen.
"You truly are quite intriguing, and with that I think I'll indulge you by getting a bit more serious."replied the progenitor.
"Bring it on."I said as I held onto the mythical class,dual daggers referred to as [Velda's Wrath]³.
The fight between the two beings went on for quite some time as both seemed evenly matched. The Clashes between them were powerful enough to alter the geography of the ninth hell.But even in such conditions,the emergence of a victor is always assured,given time that is.
"Tell me 'brave one ' I have not yet gotten the honour of knowing your name?"
"In here I go by the name Spectre, but seeing as this may be our last time meeting,you can callm me Xavier."
"Well, Xavier ,the human,It was quite an honour to come across paths with you,but our time together ends here."
"I was thinking the same thing,"he said in a tone that was outright cocky.
As both of them bled out to their final moments,they charged up what seemed like their final attacks.
"Farewell, Xavier, my admirable adversary..."and in a serene yet authoritative voice she uttered the words,"....[HELLISH MIASMA]⁴."It led to the formation of an immense array of hell flames,as it consumed all nlin it's path,now heading towards Damian.
"That looks really bad,"he said in both awe and fear at the attack.
"Cough!"
"Splurt!"
Damian wasn't doing so well himself,and with his HP in the single digits,He prepared one of his most potent attacks
He crossed the two daggers together,"This will be my last attack. Activate Velda's last breath...."he took a deep breath and with a calm yet serious composure he uttered the words,"....[MATERIAL BURST]⁵." The out came a gigantic burst of light,it exuded a powerful aura and cry.
Both attacks headed towards their intended targets as they tore through the ninth hell's atmosphere with sheer force. What a terrifying sight they were.Then....
"BOOOM!!!"
In what seemed like a concluded fight,as neither attacks missed their targets, Silhouettes were seen in the dust rubble.
"You really are a fearsome for," one uttered.
"As you were too," uttered another.
"May we across paths again..... Xavier the infamous," said the progenitor as she took her last breath.
"Well.....I hope not," said Damian as he fell seated to the ground,his clothes and equipment were all scorched and in shambles,his body wasn't any better.
"I managed to survive with only 1Hp left thanks to Velda's,(Divine sanctuary)⁶, though I had to sacrifice a extremely prized possession, at least I was able to see through to the end of this nightmare."

Another thing about me is that I don't have a patron,It isn't that I didn't want to, It was an effect of the class I chose as an
In return for support,50% of the exp one gained was given as an offering to the patron, although items earned were left discreetly to the player, the problem with this is that even in the event that one used a support from their patron no matter how small it was, there'd still be a 50% exp cut. Guess the players didn't value exp that much so long as they'd have an easy win, but this wasn't the only reason for choosing this class,the reason being that it gave the following rewards;
_______________
One is that there is a 50% stat increase when fighting opponents slightly stronger than you.
Two is that there is a 50% additional exp awarded for defeating said opponents.
_______________
Although all this would be worthless if the opponent was still more powerful,despite your additional stats.

[A NEW TITLE HAS BEEN CREATED]

"Wait....new title?, what's that about."
________________________________________ °TITLE:
________________________________________
"Apostle?what does it mean by apostle?I thought that this class wasn't capable of forming any contracts with the transcendents. Not to mention it's an unknown monarch, weird, it's hard to come by monarchs, let alone form a contract with one."
"Guess there was still a lot more to uncover about this game....mmm....this is kind of depressing since I'm one of the games top rankers. Oh well, guess that's too bad, if I had more time with it I'm sure I'd be able to uncover all it's mysteries and secrets. It's a shame such a game is being taken down."
"I guess I should log off now,It was a great run, so long infamous [CONQUEST OF GODS] "
Just as Xavier was about to log off, an unexpected error occured.
"Wait.....why am I not logging out."
"BZZZZT!"
"Is there a glitch or bug by any chance. Great." he said sarcastically.
"BZZZZT!"
"Wait..... what's happening. Why's the game glitching like this."
Then everything went dark.
* * *
"Ugh! What happened. I remember trying to log out of the game,but then everything went dark."
Xavier then got out of what seemed like a bed in a room, he went past a standing mirror that was in the room.
"What?.... what are these clothes? And where am I?"
Then he rushed to the rooms open window,and the sight outside of it was even more shocking.
"Wait.....this can't be right...."
