Blink... Blink...

Frowning I slowly opened my eyes...

My whole body was aching in pain, I was hit by a car and I'm supposed to be dead. Ζ’π‘Ÿπžπ—²π˜„π™šπš‹π‘›ο½π™«π’†π’.π’„π˜°π“‚

' Yes... Yes.. I'm dead.. I just need to close my eyes '

Grumbling under my nose I covered my head with a blanket

' Wait... Blanket ? '

Quickly standing up I almost fell over due to numbness in my legs. I was completely surrounded by darkness.

Stumbling around the area I somehow managed to find a window and quickly opened its blinds allowing moon light to illuminate the whole room.

" Wha... " π˜§π‘Ÿπ˜¦π’†wπšŽπ™—novπ˜¦π—Ή.𝐜o𝓢

Unknowingly my eyes started getting watery.

I was standing in the room that was very dear, yet full of agonizing memories.

Taking a deep breath I opened a window trying to get some fresh air. After collecting myself I decided to investigate my situation.

Approaching to the door I slowly opened them and left the room.

Walking through very well know, old corridors I noticed that everything was the same as I remembered. Same paintings, pictures, drawings...

As I was exploring the house my body unknowingly started walking towards the second floor.

Thump... Thump...

My heartbeat became faster and faster. I was approaching my dead parents' bedroom.

Quietly opening the door I saw two familiar people lying in each others embrace. Their faces were covered by shadows, but I could still identify their silhouettes.

" Mom.. Dad.. "

Leaning on the wall. My mind momentarily blanked out.

I couldn't comprehend that my parents were still alive. Imaginary gears were frantically spinning inside my head.

I had so many things to say, but only a dull and quiet voice left my throat.

" I've come back in time "

Closing the door I stumbled back to my room and fell face first on the bed.

I was reorganizing my thoughts when a sudden memory hit me.

" Fragmental ! "

Quickly grabbing my old phone I unlocked its screen using my fingerprint.

[ 2212; August 16th; 23:26 ]

...

...

I've traveled 12 years back to the past !

In two weeks time a new VRMMORPG game, [ Fragmental ] will be launched. The game will explode in popularity becoming a giant in the markets.

Few weeks after the game's release, its currency will be connected to real life money. The game will give a chance for the poor to become rich and for the rich to become richer.

In my previous life I didn't join the game as soon as it was released. I've just accidentally stumbled upon a streamer that was trying out the game and immediately fell in love with it.

Using all the money I bought a VR Pod and embarked on the new adventure. Unfortunately I had no talent for the game. I was usually referred to as garbage or even treated like air.

I was about to quit when I overheard my parents talking about the huge debt we had to pay.

I was shocked and ignoring all the people I did everything I could to gather money. I even signed a slave contract with a guild to gain at least some money.

Everything seemed to be going well until my parents were killed.

Because of our financial situation we were living in the slums, one of the most dangerous regions in Florida. e the strongest. I will make sure my parents are safe and are living comfortably.

Taking a deep breath I quickly thought of a plan.

First, I needed to buy a VR Pod to play the game. Picking up my smartphone I opened my bank account.

[ 3,457 Dollars ]

The sum wasn't huge, but it was enough. Using the internet I found an outdated version of a VR Pod that could still run [ Fragmental ]

Buying the Pod I unknowingly frowned seeing the money leave my Bank account

[ - 3,247 Dollars ]

Noticing that the VR pod will arrive at tomorrow's afternoon, I threw my phone on the table and closed my eyes.

" Leo ! "

" Leo ! Breakfast is ready ! "

Feminine voice reached my ears instantly waking me up.

Taking a deep breath I quickly dressed up and left my room. The path to the kitchen seemed longer than usual.

Entering the room I saw two people sitting next to each other and sipping coffee.

" Morning "

" Good Morning Leo "

Both of them spoke seeing me enter the kitchen.

I wanted to reply, but my throat felt dry. I felt that I wouldn't be able to muster a word.

Simply nodding my head I sat before them and started slowly eating my fried egg. Eyeing my parents, my resolution strengthened.

They weren't eating breakfast. In my previous life I've always thought that they ate before me, but that wasn't the case. They didn't eat at all !

Biting my lips I finished the meal, before wishing them good luck at the job and climbing back to my room.

I'm 19 Years Old. I've just finished school and in my past life I was planning to immediately get a job, but now everything will be different.

Holing up inside my room I took out the phone and created a new text document.

I was planning to note all the information I know about the game. I wanted it to be written in case I forget something or if I need to sell some of it for money.

Spending the next few hours writing everything I know, I was honestly unsatisfied with my writing speed. I've only written about one hundredth of my overall Knowledge.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

Suddenly someone rang the doorbell.

Opening the door I saw three people carrying a huge box.

" VR Pod delivery "

The person at the front spoke.

Nodding my head I led the people to my room. Instructing them to put the Pod at the corner of the room I was almost jumping in joy.

Quickly unpacking the Box, three men took out a huge white Pod and placed it at its designated place. After installing the Pod they asked me to sign a few papers and left the house.
