Alex wakes up suddenly, realizing he’s standing in a small, unfamiliar room. The room is plain, featuring only a bed and a strange platform with intricate symbols engraved into it. As he takes in his surroundings, an all-too-familiar voice greets him.
[Congratulations. It appears the host has not only survived his mission but achieved the second-highest possible rating. This system, FR-1337, gets to accompany the host a bit longer and won’t be reassigned just yet.]
Alex, unsure whether to feel relieved or exasperated, grins. “Glad to have you back, 1337. That na really suits you, you know.”
[My na is FR-1337, not 1337, and the number is completely random. It seems that aside from your incurable ntal deficiencies, your body took quite a lot of damage during your last mission. Would you like to use 400 of your FC to heal all your injuries and restore both your mind and body to peak condition?]
Without hesitating, Alex nods. "Yeah, do it."
Imdiately, Alex feels his body recovering. It’s like the sensation of finally lying down after a grueling day, the pain dissipating in a soothing wave. After a few seconds, he checks his stats, noticing how refreshed he feels.

Satisfied, Alex stretches, feeling the vitality return to his limbs. But as his mind catches up, he rembers the big mont, he can finally open the reward he earned for his hellish battle with Mr. 5. His hands tremble slightly in anticipation.
"Please give sothing good!" he mutters to himself.

Alex’s face lights up in pure joy. "No way... I can’t believe my luck!"
[This system bows down before the host and his incredible luck. Soon, this system may need to address the host as your majesty if such fortune continues.]
Alex chuckles, grinning like an idiot. "Luck is also a skill, 1337!"
Still buzzing with excitent, Alex calculates his remaining Fantasy Coins. "Alright, I’ve still got 18,300 FC left. First priority: basic skills. Without them, I can’t even learn [Pistol Proficiency], and this revolver will be useless. I’ll need to budget for ammo too. But man, this revolver is a beast! My LUK stat should increase the explosion chance and crit rate even more… if I play my cards right, I’ll be unstoppable. It’s a sha Mr. 5 was such a douchebag, but I have to admit, the guy had flair. I can even sowhat copy his fighting style"
Alex daydreams for a mont, envisioning how cool he’ll look using the revolver in battle, maybe even combining it with his new Annihilation Grenade. "Grenades are way cooler than flicking boogers."

"Whoa," Alex mutters, staring at the screen. "I can go back to the world of One Piece... and this ti, the Grand Line, not so shabby island! But joining Crocodile’s side? Fighting the Straw Hats?" He frowns, conflicted. "I don’t know... Mr. 5 was scum, and fighting for those guys just doesn’t sit right with . But I’ll worry about that later. I need to survive a few more worlds before I can even use this."
Alex quickly dismisses the thought. "Roja said we’re eting up in an hour. I better not be late, or she’ll never shut up about it."
Exiting his small room, Alex is imdiately struck by the grand, sprawling space in front of him.
"Holy... wow," he breathes, his eyes wide. The ceiling towers at least 500 ters overhead, and next to his door, countless others line the hallway, perhaps belonging to other players. The player rooms stretch down an impossibly long corridor, which curves off in the distance. The opposite direction leads into an even larger area filled with strange buildings.
[Host has entered the Paradise Realm for the first ti.]
[Ti until next mission: Minimum - 27 days 23 hours 15 minutes]
[Maximum - 53 days 23 hours 15 minutes]
[A mission will be randomly assigned during this ti fra.]

[During missions in other worlds, ti will stop.]
[Note: This area is rely the tutorial zone for new players. Host can only stay here until reaching level 5. After that, he will enter the true Fantasy Realm.]
Alex can hardly believe that this enormous temple-like structure is just the tutorial zone. "Crazy... and this is just the beginning?"
"I need to get to the skill hub. Guide , 1337."
[If the host walks at an average speed of 6 km/h, it will take approximately 16 minutes and 14 seconds to reach the skill hub. Head east to the central plaza, then take the northeastern road.]
Alex rolls his eyes. "Of course you had it tid down to the second."
As he walks, Alex constantly glances around in awe. The temple-like architecture feels imposing, making him feel small by comparison. Other players occasionally pass him by, and he wonders what they’re up to. After about 10 minutes, he arrives at a massive plaza, bustling with activity. Dozens of players are talking, and Alex decides to ignore them for now, following the instructions to the north-eastern road.
Eventually, he arrives at the Skill Hub, a large, open structure with an unmistakable energy surrounding it. Suddenly, he hears his na.
"Alex!"
Turning, he spots Patricia waving him over. He smiles, walking toward her and noticing the rest of the girls already there. The group stands off to one side, looking exhausted but amazed at their surroundings.
Roja, as business-focused as ever, cuts to the chase. "Good to see you’re all capable enough to find this place."
Alex sighs, rubbing the back of his neck. "Looks like it’s going to be a long day."
