It is just a game; even though they can feel pain as their avatar gets hurt and injured, it's not like they are going to suffer in real life. The worst they could experience is having trauma from feeling a sensation similar to death.
It is just a game, and they have nothing to risk and nothing to lose. Surely not their lives, money, popularity, and even all the time they spend playing RAIDS ONLINE.
It is just a game; they can lose as many times as they need, and they can try as many times as they want until they become strong enough to win against their opponent.
It is just a game; no matter how real the emotions they feel, the images they see, the sounds they hear, everything will remain as an illusion, a lie, an imaginary world created by programs run based on 1 and 0.
It is just a game...
But SilverPup's efforts in gathering information about the Ragnarok Beasts will never be an illusion.
