I was walking down the hallway towards the classroom.
It had been a week since I moved into the dormitory. My life had been going on normally. No, there was something unusual...
"Hey hey, what class do you have today?" A girl's curious voice rang out.
'Haaaa...'. I sighed inwardly as I looked towards the voice.
A girl with a petite figure and short orange hair was staring at me with curious eyes.
Yeah, it was Livy.
A few days ago, I had bumped into her on my way to class. After all, our classes were next door, so the chance of us meeting was very high.
Since then, she had stuck to me whenever she saw me. Her positive energy and aura were hard for me to ignore. I always had to follow her lead. It was just that her appearance was too eye-catching, so when I was with Livy, I felt a little uncomfortable.
'What did I do that she paid so much attention to me...'
"I have math class this morning. I have a practical class in the Virtual Reality Area in the afternoon." I smiled reluctantly and answered her.
Hearing my answer, she was a little surprised. Then Livy's eyes lit up as she replied.
"What a coincidence, I also have a practical class in the Virtual Reality Zone this afternoon! My class teacher said that my class will be practicing with another class today. Is it possible that we will have the same class?"
Hearing Livy's words, my steps stopped for a moment. My facial muscles stiffened a little.
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing." I waved my hand in response and continued walking.
How could I forget? Today was the day that Class 1-A and Class 1-B were paired together for a practical class in the Virtual Reality Area. It was also the first time the main characters had come into contact with each other, forming a bond between them.
Such an important event, and I had only just remembered it now. How bad could my memory be?
"We'll probably be studying together. My homeroom teacher also said that we'll be studying together with another class in this afternoon's class." I replied to Livy's previous question.
"Great! So we can study together this afternoon. I've always regretted not being in the same class as you." She said while putting on a regretful expression.
Seeing her expression made me laugh a little. Livy was truly a little sun. It was hard to feel sad when she was around.
"Hey, you're laughing at me again! What's so funny!"
Seeing me laugh, Livy puffed her cheeks and glared at me. She looked like an angry little squirrel.
'So cute...'. A relaxed smile appeared on my face.
"Hey! Stop laughing!"
"Um, no more laughing. I'm going, it's time for class. See you this afternoon!". I quickly ran away, leaving an angry Livy staring at me.

As soon as Danz left, Livy returned to her usual appearance. The angry expression from before disappeared without a trace. But there was still a smile on her mouth. A very genuine smile.
She had been approaching and chatting with Danz for a few days now. She always felt comfortable talking to him. She felt like she was talking to an older brother.
She was the only child in the family, she had no idea what it was like to have an older brother. But when she was near Danz, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. It was like an older brother teasing his younger sister, it felt very natural. She didn't feel any fakeness coming from Danz at all.
There had been dozens of people who approached her with various purposes because of her status. She felt disgusted by those people. But she didn't see those disgusting things in Danz. He talked to her simply because she talked to him. Not once had he taken the initiative to come to her and had any bad intentions. She could see that, she believed in her ability to read people.
That's why she felt comfortable around him, she wanted to talk to him more. Except for her parents, there wasn't a single person who treated her like a normal girl. He was the only exception.
'I get to see him again this afternoon, I'm so excited'
She walked happily back to her class.

Maths weren't too difficult for me, I had learned most of this knowledge when I was Dang Minh Nhat. I still remember some of it so it was easy to absorb.
And now I was standing with my class in front of the gate of Area 4 - Virtual Reality Area.
Next to my group of students was another group of students from class 1-B.
We were waiting for the teacher of this class. And it didn't take long for him to appear.
It was a man around 30 years old, with brown hair and green pupils hidden behind his glasses. He was wearing a white shirt and a beige suit. He exuded the air of an intellectual scholar.
"Hello everyone, I'm Britton Davie. I'll be taking care of your Virtual Reality class from today. Nice to meet you all." He said with a smile.
"Now we'll move to the virtual reality room together, remember to follow me."
He said and walked away, the students from our two classes quickly followed him. It didn't take long before we arrived at our VA room.
This was a large room containing a series of capsule-shaped containers. There were about 100 of them. And we would enter the virtual reality space by using those containers.
"Okay, let me first explain today's lesson."
After saying that, he projected some information onto the large screen, then gave detailed instructions on each piece of information.
In short, we would enter the virtual reality space and survive inside it for 5 hours. During the survival, we have to kill monsters or find hidden flags to get points. Points are calculated individually. The points obtained cannot be transferred between students. Students can freely cooperate with each other during those 5 hours of survival.
The points are converted as follows:
- Rankless Monster: 1 point.
- Rank F- Monster: 5 points.
- Rank F Monster: 15 points.
- Rank F+ Monster: 30 points.
- Flag: 50 points.
And finally, the E- Rank Hidden Boss with a score of 100 points. And the practical lesson will end as soon as it is killed.
And the most important information for me is that the 10 students with the highest scores will gain a certain amount of Contribution Points.
Contribution points were very important in Hollis because they could be used to exchange for a lot of rare resources, which were always sold at sky-high prices outside.
With the ridiculously high tuition fees, students here already enjoyed treatment that other academies could hardly match. But who wouldn't want to earn more resources for themselves, right?
In this life, I needed to develop quickly to support Karen, I had to get into the top 10. I needed those contribution points.
And my plan was to avoid fighting as much as possible and just focus on finding flags. I still hadn't mastered my swordsmanship, so I needed to avoid fighting. Finding flags was the easiest way for me to get into the top 10.
'Let's see, about 3 flags should be enough'
Well, let's decide on that. 150 points was just enough for me to enter the top 10.
"I've finished explaining the rules of today's lesson. Now, everyone, please enter the capsules and follow my instructions to enter the virtual reality space."
As soon as I finished speaking, the students from the two classes immediately scattered, each choosing their own capsules. Me too.
"Let's see...here it is!"
Seeing that the pod was empty, I immediately went over and prepared to step inside.
"Hey Danny, if we meet later, team up with me." A girl's voice rang out behind me.
My face suddenly became a little unnatural. Only one person would call me by that name.
I turned around, my eyes meeting hers. I replied.
"You should find stronger people to form a team, Liz. I'll only drag you down. Also, don't call me by that nickname..." I said with a distorted expression.
"But it's cute, isn't it? Besides, you called me by a nickname too, so we're even." Livy puffed her cheeks in response.
"Since you started it first, I have to respond..." I sighed helplessly.
"Heh, I'm going. Let's form a team later." She gave a bright smile and left, making me a little speechless.
'It seems like she just ignored my advice.' The corner of my lips twitched as I realized this fact.
"Wait! Didn't you listen to my advice? Don't try to find me, go form a team with the strong students..."
"She's gone..."
I covered my face with my hand, my face showing my helplessness.
"Haaaa, never mind. Let's see what happens. I just hope she doesn't really come looking for me." I sighed in frustration and stepped into the capsule.
If Livy doesn't team up with the Karen group, the bond between them will fade. If this happens, the chances of defeating the Demon King will decrease.
'I didn't intend to stick to the original plot anymore, but there are certain things that can't be changed.'
The more things change, the more difficult it will be to grasp the future, and my advantage will disappear. And the relationship between the main characters is one of those things that absolutely shouldn't have too many differences.
"What a headache." I muttered.
Closing the capsule lid, I put on the huge hat that was already in the capsule and lay down.
This hat is the main device that brings us into the virtual world.
After a short while of scanning the data, confirming the user. I felt a small electric current run through my body. Then my consciousness was brought into an empty white space. The only thing that existed was myself and a countdown timer.
As soon as the countdown ended, my vision became a little blurry. When I could see everything clearly again, I was brought into a wild jungle.
