Tingling Sensation!

"Hmm." I murmured to myself, my expression a mix of confusion and curiosity as I stepped out. 

I left the house with conflicting thoughts. I hadn't thought about what would happen after, but right now, the most curious and crucial question was whether what I experienced was real. My footsteps were heavier, each step filled with anticipation.

No matter how much I thought about it, it defied common sense, but because it was actually happening, I couldn't ignore it. 

….

After leaving home and walking for like some time, I saw the familiar sign of the shop. 'Happy Course'. I took a deep breath, the scent of familiar spices wafting out, and walked straight in. It wasn't likely meal time of the day, so there were no customers inside, the silence almost eerie.

I headed straight to the usual secluded spot in the corner, the very seat where I had just received a blowjob In the Nexus World from Minha. 

There was nothing different from the last time I saw the seat a few days ago, yet for some reason, the chair itself looked good, almost as if it held secrets.

"Welcome... oh, my. A student… her at this time.." Minha's voice was warm, her face lighting up with recognition.

"Oh, yeah. Hello. One burger and french fries, please." I managed to keep my voice steady, avoiding her gaze.

"Sure…" She replied with a smile, turning towards the kitchen. 

I placed my order without even looking at the owner, Minha's face. Just seeing her face made me feel something, so I pretended to look at my phone and somehow turned away. My heart was racing, my fingers trembling slightly on the phone.

I turned on my phone's flashlight as I saw the Minha entering the kitchen. The light was like a beacon to my truth-seeking mission.

Now was the long-awaited moment of verification. My breathing slowed as I prepared for what might come.

If there was the tissue paper I had rolled up and thrown into this gap, then what just happened was real. If not...

'If it doesn't exist, it's just an absurd fantasy from my perspective.' My mind was racing with possibilities.

*Swoosh-*

I immediately checked the gap. In the dark, hard-to-see crevice, something was illuminated by my phone's flashlight. Clearly wedged between the wall and the all-in-one chair was a wad of tissue paper. My heart skipped a beat.

Seeing it wasn't covered in dust, it was just a piece of tissue stuck in the gap. It was fresh, untouched by time.

'Huh.' My mind was reeling. This was no coincidence.

Several times, I noticed the piece of tissue stuck between the wall and the chair, and then I sat back down properly. My hands were shaking, not from fear but from the thrill of discovery.

This was definitely not a dream. It was reality. The implications were dizzying.

'Heh hehehehe.' I couldn't help but laugh out loud in my mind, a chuckle escaping my lips in real, echoing in my inner monologue.

...

[Name: Alex

Age: 20 years old]

Size: 7 

Hardness: 13 

Power: 6 

Speed: 8 

Durability: 5 

Control Force: 1 

Bonus Stats: 0]

I reviewed six different stats and summarized the capabilities of each. Size and rigidity seemed straightforward enough to understand, the numbers almost palpable. 

While power and speed were universally applicable concepts, but somehow they seemed to mean something different in this game, more akin to their name perhaps.

'Endurance is probably how long you can last... but what exactly is control?' I pondered, my mind trying to piece together the puzzle of this game's system and its mechanics.

I was curious about what control, with its lowest value, exactly was, but there was no explanation for the stats, so there was no way to know. My frustration was evident in my furrowed brows.

The only way to find out what role each stat played was by investing heavily in them and experiencing it firsthand. The thought was both exciting and daunting.

*Click-*

After looking at the stats once, I returned to the quest list. The screen was filled with various quests, each one a with a beautiful girl with missions and their grade and what he was supposed to do.

*Scroll-*

I habitually scrolled down the screen, searching for a suitable quest this time around. My eyes were looking focused on the quest as I scroll down again and again, looking for something that might be better than previous ones with better rewards.

After discovering at 'Happy meals' Restaurant that this game was connected to or akin to connect to real things, I had many concerns. 

The first thing I did was try to find Nexus World, the manufacturer. But, no matter where I searched for 'Nexus World', no VR-related company showed up. My frustration grew with each dead end.

I tried to go to the site where I made the purchase, but the store was already closed, and even trying to go to the page through my purchase history wouldn't connect me to the order and just show an error like it wasn't even there. 

There was no manufacturer information on the machine or box delivered to me, and searching for similar names on a corporate search site yielded no results aka NOTHING... My searches were fruitless, each one going haywire to waywire.

I tried every method I could think of to find information but ultimately failed, and my will to contact the manufacturer diminished. My shoulders slumped with each failed attempt.

But it's not like I was going to complain if I happened to find some new information, I just wanted to check the seller's website for more information.

I didn't want to say something like 'Hey Take this back, I don't need this.' Or something along those lines.

On the contrary I feel like I'm probably one of the so called lucky guys in those animations, and novels. 

And as soon as I realized that there was no setbacks for me even if I didn't find out the information I was looking for… It really doesn't matter that much.

As soon as that thought crossed my mind and I accepted that, a new happiness was blooming inside me… making me chuckle every few seconds for some time like I'm some kind of villain and was scheming something bad.
