When I realized it, I was lying on straw.
However, it is definitely straw.
Straw was piled up somewhere in what seemed like a storage shed, and I was lying on it.
Is there a place with straw in Tokyo?
No, why am I in such a place in the first place?
I remember trying to play some weird online game.
I lost consciousness halfway through...
When I came to, I was on the straw.
I don't really understand what happened.
A complete virtual reality?
I've never heard of such a thing.
Moreover, being able to enter the game just by clicking?
At that moment, something made a whinnying sound.
There's something in the shed.
The information "horse" suddenly popped into my head.
It seems there is definitely a horse.
When I got up and approached, there was one horse.
The thickness of its legs and all suggested it wasn't a thoroughbred, but it was a horse.
I don't know much about horse breeds.
The shed was about the size of a one-room apartment.
With one horse in there. What a life.
I want to tell my dad and me, who live in a 4.5 tatami and 6 tatami apartment, to apologize.
But getting angry about it won't do any good, so I looked around.
It was dim, but the sky outside the window was reddish, and a faint light was coming in.
Either a sunset or a sunrise.
There was no sign of anyone around.
There were no windowpanes or wooden windows, and the windows were wide open.
The horse was behaving calmly.
When I thought about it, the information "horse" popped into my head again.
When I thought, "What is this?" the information popped into my head.
It was the last skill I added to my character settings in the game yesterday.
I looked at myself and thought, "Appraisal."
Kaga Michio, Male, 17 years old
The information popped into my head.
So, this is undoubtedly the game from yesterday.
A complete virtual reality, I guess.
I didn't even register a name.
I was wearing the same tracksuit I wore yesterday.
If it's equipment, sure, but a tracksuit?
The temperature is neither hot nor cold.
This outfit isn't a problem, but going outside barefoot is.
The shed was a bit brighter than before, and I saw something like sandals.
When I thought, "What is this?" the information popped into my head again.
I decided to put them on.
Since I had no socks, I put them on barefoot.
I tied the laces to keep them from falling off.
When I thought about my body, the information popped into my head.
Kaga Michio, Male, 17 years old
Equipment: Durandal, Sandal Boots
Sorry. I equipped something that isn't mine.
I ended up getting a second job in a strange place.
By the way, the tracksuit doesn't count as equipment.
Maybe because it's something I brought from outside the game.
By the way, I remember there was a bonus equipment.
I searched the room and found a sword next to the straw.
Durandal, Two-Handed Sword
Skills: Attack Power x5, HP Absorption, MP Absorption, Interrupt Casting, Ignore Level Correction, Ignore Defense
Sure enough, it's a bonus weapon six.
It seems to have a tremendous power.
Next to the sword, there was a ring.
Ring of Resolve, Accessory
Skills: Increased Attack Power, Enhanced Against Humans
The accessory two also has some decent skills.
I put on the ring and picked up the sword.
Kaga Michio, Male, 17 years old
Equipment: Durandal, Sandal Boots, Ring of Resolve
So, this is definitely a game.
The bonus weapon I chose in the character settings is here, so it's certain.
I don't know how they achieved the virtual reality, though.
I decided to go outside the horse shed.
I stuck Durandal into my tracksuit belt like a samurai.
I shouldn't stay here too long, or I might get caught for stealing the sandals.
The outside landscape looked like a rural village.
There were a few wooden single-story houses and vegetable gardens around.
To the east, where the sun was, there were fields, and to the north, a forest loomed.
Even though the sun wasn't fully up yet, the villagers were already active.
Two people were walking down the road.
I hurriedly hid behind the horse shed.
I'm not sure if I needed to hide.
But I don't know where I am.
It's better to be cautious.
I did steal the sandals, after all.
I peeked at the two people from my hiding spot.
Zaian, Male, 38 years old
Ganack, Male, 35 years old
First, they don't have last names.
They must be non-player characters.
Their levels aren't very high, but maybe they're set that way.
I decided to enter the forest from the side of the horse shed and observe the village.
I might be able to go out in front of the villagers without any problems, but given the circumstances...
The village extends quite a bit to the southwest.
There are about thirty to forty houses.
In the middle, there are some two-story and three-story houses.
I monitored the people coming out of the houses.
Oh, this person isn't a villager.
The person next to them looks like a wife, but the woman is Villager Lv6.
I can't tell the difference between villagers and farmers.
There should be a tutorial somewhere in the game.
If I didn't have Appraisal, I wouldn't know anything.
This old man has the highest level.
If I want to talk to someone, it should be this person with the highest level.
Or maybe I should talk to someone with a lower level.
The village chief has a slightly lower level. He's sixty-eight years old.
Is it a traveling merchant or a store in the village?
They came out of a three-story house and went back in immediately.
This time, it was a woman.
She came out of the three-story house and went to the well.
If they are a couple, then this house must be a store.
Talking to a merchant might be a good idea.
As I was thinking about this, a loud voice suddenly echoed through the village.
