Capítulo 2: New Origin
"Hmmm… I will never understand your obsession with my hands."
There were three kinds of men.
One that liked the Body, one that enjoyed lips, and then there were ones like this Child.
"What's wrong with hands?"
It was early morning now as they lay beside one another, with him playing with her hand, her fingers, holding them, caressing them.
"I mean… you have a complete package and you're nuts about my hands? If it were feet, it would be more understandable-."
"Shut up." Placing a finger on her lips, he looked into her deep blue eyes.
Her hands weren't the only thing he loved about her. Those pretty eyes full of wisdom were something he couldn't help loving.
She was the smarter one among them, but she was still a dumb one to him.
-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiish…
A fine morning sunlight filled the spacious room along with calm winds.
The holographic clock's alarm had just rang, so both of them were awake now.
"Hmmm…"
Well, he was only half awake, still laying with his eyes open, looking at the pretty person beside him with a blank face as always.
"What?" The way he was looking at her though, seemed somehow different to her.
She didn't want to, but she had to ask why he was doing it to quench her curiosity.
"You're sexy," he complimented out of the blue while kissing her ring finger.
"Hmm? You just realized that? After all these years?"
She wasn't being sarcastic here.
The way he said it sounded so genuine she couldn't help but be surprised at his silly question.
"Yup. I just realized how stupid I was to not admire a hot art piece like this." Saying that, he bit her finger, kissed it again, and intertwined their fingers.
"Did you just become a boomer after a few hours of retirement? Will I have to marry a geezer or what?"
A smile bloomed on her face at his rare, cute behavior.
He was more… crazy, usually. But, he was being all lovey dovey for some reason.
"Since when do you hate old people? I thought you were into-."
"Shut up and get up now."
She knew now that he was in this playful mood, he would waste their entire morning with dumb, cute and useless things.
"We have to do a lot of things today… you're gonna start games again and starting with the best one among them.
You might know all that you need to know about it all, but you still need an expert like-."
"Oh, that's right."
He suddenly realized something and was awakened completely with his eyes wide open.
"Aren't you a big deal in that game? How are we going to play together if there's a large level difference between us?"
The best Virtual Reality Massive Multiplayer Online of the current day, <New Origin>.
It had only been around three years since this game came to life however, the self-operating ecosystem of this game, the highest degree of freedom it provides, and the near infinite world it offers made it earn the title of the 'Second world' in the short time it had existed in this world.
Run by the best artificial intelligence of the era, this virtual world was the same as the many fantasy games that existed today, however, different from them, the kind of experience this world provided was The best.
And, she was one of the players who had played it ever since its open beta testing. Some of the few who had been part of this second world's history even before the 'players' had arrived on it.
She was obviously a high level even though she only played it casually and loved playing it as a hobby. So, he knew it would be difficult for them to play on the same level together with one another like they wanted.
"It's a perfect VR so your game ID is bound by your core credentials, right? And since you're high level, you also can't just delete your account and create another one."
It wasn't possible in the first place as to access this 'second world' one needed their unique biometric identifications that could not be deleted or replaced as one wanted.
He had not thought about it since there had never been any need to until now, but now that he was thinking about it, he was confused why she had always wanted to play along with him so badly.
She knew him well so she knew he didn't like getting a free ride or having power disparity between them.
She might be stronger and smarter than him, but he was still better than her. He wasn't going to play with her unless he was on the same level as her… or was at least good enough to stand alongside her.
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about that~!"
She loved that other world.
And she had always known he would love it as well…
"This great and amazing Lady of yours has a way to create an Alt~."
"Heh?"
Those proud words she said with her nose lifted high confused him.
"In <NO>? You can do that?"
Creating an alternative account in this game was thought to be impossible but she was saying she can do that?
"Yup~. You know how amazing I am~. This is nothing big~."
The way she was confidently saying those things made him look at her with a suspicious expression for a moment.
However, even after observing her with squinted eyes, he could not find anything wrong with her.
"…you're acting sus."
He knew there was no way to actually create an Alternate account in this game. Of course unless someone can change their fingerprints, retinas, and DNA code, it is not possible.
So, whatever trick she was going to pull was not going to be from outside.
Even a genius like her couldn't do something like that.
"Hump. Sussy bastard calling others sus." She pouted her cheeks like a little girl and got out of their soft blanket.
"If you don't believe me, why don't you see for yourself?"
He was still laying on the bed and she wanted to just pick him up alongside that blanket and smash him on the ground, but since today was a good looking day, she spared him.
"We have to wash up and eat breakfast-."
They had just woken up so there were many things that they needed to do before they get to their gaming room that only she had used until now— but she didn't want to waste any more time so, when he got out of that blanket, she pulled him, took a quick shower alongside him, reheated some leftovers from last night and shoved them down his throat.
And then she dragged him to their gaming room he had never used himself.
"Sunday, boot the system! Your other master is finally starting games!"
-Oooooooooooooong!
The room situated across their hall room they entered was dark at first, however as soon as she said that, first a green light blinked on the ceiling, and then, with a blue flash of light, the RGB lights throughout the rooms were turned on.
[Welcome back masters. And a very good morning to both of you.]
A male mechanical voice brimming with a unique intelligence replied to her voice and greeted both of them.
"Sunday, tell your creator not to drag me around. I can walk on my own, eat on my own- oh, I don't mind the bath- I can do all the other things by myself."
[Creator master. The other master wants you to not drag him around. He says he can walk on his own, eat on his own, and do all the other things by himself.
He does not mind taking baths with you, though, the tone recognition detects he wouldn't mind doing any of the previously mentioned things if it is with you.]
Even though the technology had advanced tremendously in the last three decades, it was still surprising to see such a fluent reply from an artificial intelligence.
"You programmed him to be like this, didn't you?"
He never liked how he always took her side and how he made anything he said about her into something positive.
It might be a good artificial intelligence, but it was still not something that he, as a person of arts, could tolerate for long.
"Hehe, he only says the truth and facts~. Don't blame him for saying what you don't~."
As the room was now illuminated, one could see a wall covered with screens at the end of the room, a good lot of mechanical instruments, and three unique VR capsules that were modified from inside out.
"Well, fk the small things. Let's jump right in~."
Someone with the knowledge of Virtual Reality capsules or [Chariots] could tell these were the best modals available on the market that not just anyone could purchase.
"I'll need a day or so in system time to prepare so you should first complete your tutorial and choose [Moongold town] as your starter town.
I'll come to you by the end of today, alright?"
She wasn't usually as pushy as she was right now.
She also wasn't that cheerful and smiley.
But, today, the thought of being able to play with him was making her heart racing.
He had worked hard all this time.
She had only been with him for the last three years, and still she knew how hardworking he was.
"Come, lay down." She helped him get inside his VR chariot for the first time with a warm smile present on her face.
He was a selfish and mean person. A little arrogant and stubborn as well. But those qualities of his only came out when he was working…
"Just follow the instructions of the system and you should be fine… you know the basics and stuff already so, see ya~."
He was done working now so, they could finally play the game together like she had always wanted.
"Sunday, initiate protocol: Game."
-Ooooooooooong.
[Initiating protocol.]
[Preparing optimal game environment…]
She was happy.
And, inside the Chariot, there was a smile present on his face as well.
