What candidate?

"Seriously, what are you talking about?" Ryan asked.

"This idiot! He is too small to be here, he is picked as a candidate for the throne and he is clueless about it but I think maybe this guy has a memory loss or something"

"Yeah, days ago he has been rambling about becoming the emperor and conquering places, making the world a better place"

"Seriously? Which demon emperor will like to make peace?"

"That's why you are not going to be chosen, I don't think even the former emperor did not love war that much, you most be from that tribe that are like animals and had no control over their bloodlust" Ryan retorted, he is not the type of person that will be insulted and will not retaliate.

He did not know of any demon tribe but he has certainly read in fantasy that their are demons that are from a tribe with immense bloodlust and always battle hungry.

"How dare you!" The guy that had been insulted shouted in anger.

Ryan raised on of his finger at them and he turn around and left.

"You coward!"

'Those damn guys! I swear to kick their ass when I grew stronger' Ryan is annoyed that some idiots has to oppressed him in a Vr game too!

'Seriously? did I look that weak that even on my first day in a Vr game, some idiots has to show up and ruin my day' Ryan is really pissed right now.

"So their you are" Ryan heard someone say, but the tone of the voice did not seems to be angry with him, in fact the guy seems to be friendly.

"Who are you?!"

"Chill, its Riz, your only friend!"

"Oh, hahaha, sorry Riz. Those other guys have been messing with me, so I have to stay alert at all times" Ryan scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, that is a habit of his even in real life.

"I have figured that out already" Riz smiled wryly.

"What's up?" Ryan asked.

"Same as always, but I come to know that this candidate thing is about to get messy starting from today onwards"

"How?"

"We have to train so much and those guys might be able to kill us soon!"

"What the hell? Why will they be able to kill us?" Ryan is dumbfounded at this discovery.

"Of course, when we are trained for sometime, it will all depends on who is stronger and weaker, the strong will prey on the weak and it is completely normal! And you know they hated you the most, you are small but you are still chosen. So you have to train harder than everyone to get stronger and I will also try my best to help you"

"Thank you Riz" Ryan really feel happy that he had such a reliable friend in the game.

'What a lovely surprise I got in the game' Ryan thought to himself.

"That's nothing! You don't need to thank me, we are friends after all"

"So, what are going to do for today?"

"Why don't we took a walk around and visit the forest too"

"That will be really nice"

Ryan is excited that they will went out, what he want is adventure and touring around the city.

As they walk out of the imperial castle, they were greeted by a large number of luxurious building.

"Wow, this must be the noble's residential area" Ryan guessed it immediately after seeing the luxurious buildings.

"Of course it is, no commoner or middle class citizen can afford those, you see all this fancy things only if you are in the noble's residential area"

"But that's not so good, the poor should also be entitle to something good"

"I hope so but we can not do anything about it, not every one can be rich, the best that we can do if one of us survive the gruesome battle that awaits us, then he should try to improve their living conditions"

"Yes that is what we will do and don't say if anyone of us survive, we will but survive and live as friends forever"

"That's a childish dream but I still like it, but their have never been two people becoming a demon emperor" Riz chuckled.

"We don't have to both be emperors, we just have to survive together. Either one of us becomes an emperor, it doesn't matter"

"That's also good and we will surely achieve our goals!"

"Yeah, that's for sure

"Hey Slayer, why don't we left touring the city for another time, let's go quickly start training"

"Well... Alright let's go!" Ryan felt a bit reluctant to stop touring the city, but he quickly get over it because he realised that to ensure his and Riz's survival, training is of utmost importance.
