CHAPTER 16 First VR Match

Arriving at the front of the pods, Stefan was giving the number 101 while Raymond had number 102. Stefan went through the VR manual and he discovered something he never knew could go on while in the VR pod.

"Since this is your first time playing, you would have to choose a user ID and some other things, but immediately you get in don't do anything just go straight to friendly invite and then I will connect with you..

Stefan stepped into the pod and sat down on the sit inside and then holographic writing came up in his view so doing as he was told by Raymond he did the friendly invite.

An avatar clad with bulky amour appeared in the room he was transported to, so he assumed that this avatar would be Raymond. "Now what you see me wearing is part of the setting, so first of all create an ID and anywhere you find challenging tell me" Raymond said.

At his view a holographic image displaying where to fill in his ID details came up, so he was thinking about the username to use.

USERNAME:?

Stefan was contemplating on what username would fit his status, every mane that comes into his mind are always lame. "This is why most times I like Marcel being around me" He thought to himself.

After some minutes of standing in one place without doing anything even Raymond got tired of waiting, then the guardian said " How about 'Mana Evolver'". Stefan thought about it and it was a cool name but how is mana related to his status.

"The gold color energy in you is your mana and not your eneergy, the blue one is the energy while the gold is your mana" The guardian explained.

Stefan then placed the username: Mana Evlover, then the system registered the name and he was also asked to select from the basic (free) costumes. Most people use their real face to play but he choose to disguise himself same with Raymond.

"From this screen now you can be able to select some friends and opponents on the gaming server, so right now you are my friend on the gaming server" Raymond said.

Stefan became a little excited to see how the gaming process was going and he couldn't wait to have his first match. He then clicked on random match and waited patiently for the system to access his request.

Mana Evlover VS ?????

He was asked to choose with arena he wants to have his match, there were still some arena that will have to be bought or rented so he was asked if he wants to connect his account with his gaming server, which he clicked not yet and selected a random arena.

He was then transported to another location but this time he was on a stage, the place looks like a stadium with some sits at the surround bulwark, there were also few people that were his opponents followers, his only follower was Raymond who was also part of the audience.

Turning his eyes from the audience he saw his opponent at the other side, his opponent was a male clad with a fitting amour having no weapon.

"The match start in 3 2 1 'FIGHT'" The system AI voice said.

Stefan took a fighting stance while observing his opponents, his opponent raised his hands up in a x formation and then fling his hands down two water blades were formed.

The color of the blades were pure blue showing the extent of the opponents power, "You know it will be a real shame to my face if you should loose" The guardian said while laughing out loud.

"And it will be an honour to win and disappoint you" The kid replied back with irritation in his tone.

The opponent charged forward swinging his blade to Stefans neck which he avoided by going back with one step, the opponent went for another attack but this time it was an uppercut, Stefan shifted to the side and threw a light kick the opponents head.

The opponent blocked the attack and threw his blade at Stefan the blade was cutting through the wind with immense speed and Stefan bent his neck to the side dodging it with a few inches.

The time Stefan used in dodging that attack the opponent had already formed some water spikes about 22 in number an began releasing them one after the other to tire Stefan out.

Blue coloured energy began flowing through Stefans viens, his both hands from their elbow down was now enhanced to a certain degree of hardness, it was then the opponent noticed Stefan has been playing with him since the beginning of the match.

The opponent survival instinct kicked in and he didn't know when he created 4 water walls and sent them at Stefan, with a single punch to each of the walls they were both destroyed.

Stefan ran straight at him without holding back his speed, the people in the audience noticed that the newbie just took the match seriously. Everyone was surprised about the speed of Stefan except Raymond who knew his friend.

Approaching the opponent Stefan lunched a strong blow to the face with his hand slicing through the wind creating a green color. The opponent created 2 water shield for the defense on both arm. With a single blow each Stefan was pushing the guy backward with a lot of power packed with each attack.

Through the attack Stefan was throwing, the opponent waited for the right time and attacked him using a large hammer created out of water. Rolling on the floor, Stefan dodged the attack and went to the back of the guy and lifted him into the air, and slammed him down with great force creating a crater that fitted the opponent on the floor.

Sending and concentrating a huge amount of energy into his right fist, Stefan picked him up, holding him by his neck. The guy was already bleeding through his mouth and all he felt at the moment was immense pain. Stefan lunched a lethal blow to the heart of the guy destroying him into little crystals.
