Chapter 195 - Game Start

Soren continued to look at the list before him, and began reading all the Classes, as well as their effects.

[Wizard, Grants a greater Magic capacity, as well as a greater storage for spell knowledge… Warrior, Grants great strength, as well as a Sixth sense to incoming attacks, to help evade or counter… Assassin, Grants a high level of stealth for stealthy attacks to the Enemy… Hero, Grants the wielder of this Class an increased strength, as well as the affinity for Magic, but only Light Magic, the Hero is also well liked by NPC's and have a higher chance at unlocking Hidden missions]: soren

Soren was looking over the Classes, and noticed that Kayaba tried to make players default for the Hero Class, as it seems more appealing compared to the other classes, but there was still one more class that Soren asked for specifically that could turn the tables on the whole game for those who knew what this Classes true power was, as well as how to use it.

[Magic Swordsmen, This Class is based completely on the wielder's skill with a sword, as well as the wielder's intelligence for Magic capacity, and will be given a Test upon choosing this class… I like this class the most]: soren

Soren then picked this class, and once that happened, Soren was teleported to a special room so he couldn't get any outside help, and then he was given the test that everyone else would get when choosing this Class. Soren then spent the next 10 minutes taking a test that started out from 1st grade, and went all the way to University level questions, and once the player got a question wrong, they would be ejected from the testing room, and the Cardinal System will evaluate the level, and set your MP status at a level according to how well you placed on the test, and this was what made the Class the most overpowered, as well as the least likely to be chosen by players who don't wish to be tested, and just want to play the game.

[Question 1,000, The equation above shows how temperature F, measured in degrees Fahrenheit, relates to a temperature C, measured in degrees Celsius. Based on the equation, which of the following must be true?... Hmm, this is a tough one, but not too far out of my range, the answer should be (C)]: soren

Soren passed the 1,000 Question test with 100% in record time at 10 Minutes and 54 Seconds making him the smartest man in the world, and for his achievement the Cardinal System gave Soren a High MP gauge, as well as gave Soren an almost cheat-like ability.

{Ding! Player Soren has passed the Wisdom test with 100%, the system will now set Soren's MP gauge to 500,000… Player Soren will also receive the starting Skill (MP OverLoad) this skill will increase the Players MP by 1.5x for 3 Minutes… Sending Player back to SMO… Enjoy the game!}

Soren read the Cardinal System's announcement, and looked at the new skill that was Bolded with Gold, and had a glowing background, and Soren realized that his score in the test had added another skill to the almost limitless Skill list, as specific motions or attacks might create a new Skill for the Player who practiced the move.

[I wonder what Kayaba will choose as his class… Magic Swordsman like me?... He is a very smart man who I have full confidence will ace the test used to gauge someone's IQ, but how fast will he get it done, and what skill will he receive upon completion]: soren

Soren reappeared only to see a group of boys surrounding Soren's group which was just Misha, Hancock, and Vados at the moment, as Zeno, Zenith, Killua, and Gon had ran off to explore the digital world, and see all the new and exciting things that they missed out on for so long.

'It's everywhere I go… Idiots still try and take things that don't belong to them': soren

Soren then walked up to the group who surrounded his wives, and by chance heard what they were saying.

[Hey Beauties!... Come join my party, and I will help you level up for the small price of letting my feel your chest, it's shouldn't matter, as this is the virtual world, and not your real bodies!]: random horndog

[Hehe… Come with me, and I can show you a great time with a pleasure that you could only feel in a virtual world like this one… This must be why Kayaba made certain sensations and feelings possible in the game]: random horndog 2

Soren had enough of the idiots and walked up while placing his hand on the shoulder of the man who just spoke, and tightened his grip, which gave the pervert a Paralysis Debuff for his arm.

[So you guys wish to court my 3 wives?... Or did you happen to not notice they were married?]: soren

When the perverts heard this, they looked back to the 3 beauties, and focused their gaze to above their heads, and noticed that that all 3 had 2 rings intertwining each other, this was another feature Soren had Kayaba add, as well as the ability to turn the receptors to the brain for pain or pleasure on or off in the Status menu.

[H-How!... Never mind! I hope you get robbed by vultures on the road… I bet your wives are fat sweaty men too!]: random horndog 2

Soren then watched as the random nobody decided to leave instead of causing any more problems, and when Soren saw that, he stopped releasing his innate killing intent, and watched as the Cardinal System rang for him.

{Ding! Player Soren has created a new Skill (Killing Intent)}

'Hmm… I should look at my status': sorne

Soren then swiped his right hand down, and a small window popped up for everyone who was in his party to see.

Name: Soren Class: Magic Swordsman

Level: 01

Exp: 0/100

Currency: $100

Stamina: 1,000/1,000 MP: 500,000/500,000

Skills: (MP OverLoad) (Killing Intent) (Basic Sword Skills) (Basic Elemental Magic)

Soren saw that his skills were basics, and thought that the MP was the only thing that could be accurate when based on his knowledge, and once he Levels up it will increase more. Soren then took Misha, Hancock, and Vados out the the wilderness, and began hunting some Fire boar, SOren noticed that the Fire boar looked like the regular boar from the Anime, but they had a Fiery mane going down their backs instead of fur, and their feet left little singe marks on the grass when they felt alarmed. Soren then pulled out a 1 handed beginners sword from his inventory, as well as the beginner armor that everyone was given, and wore it, he then looked over to his group of 3 spectating women, and spoke.

[Now this is a virtual world that is built to the Normal Human brains capacity, and we think and move faster than a normal human, so we will feel like we're lagging behind, so take it slow, and let the game do the work for you, and after this we can try Virtual Sex]: soren

When the girls heard this, they shouted in excitement, but then realization hit them, and Hancock spoke up.

[But Husband, we look nothing like our real figures, so I feel like it would be cheating, will it not?]: hancock

Hancock jestured over to both Misha and Vados who were nodding their heads frivolously, and were soon cleared up with Soren's next words.

[Don't worry, the Sex comes later when Kayaba force teleports us all to the main plaza and tells us all we can't get out, and gives us a (Revealing Mirror)]: soren

Misha, Hancock, and Vados felt a slight relief in Soren's words, and began hunting Fire boars with him all day, and right around 6pm the Sun began to set, and the Clock tower bells began to ring signifying 6pm, as well as the start of the Death Game. Soon, everyone was brought into the town Colosseum, and everyone began looking around while some shouted out that it must be an Event, but unbeknownst to them there was no Event in play, only a word of warning, and soon, the sky turned Blood Red with warning signs, and a thick Blood colored ooze seeped through the cracks in the sky, and formed a mysterious figure in a Red robe with the hood covering his head, and no matter how you looked, only a Black hole could be seen where the face should have been, thus hiding the identity of the figure, and soon, the figure began to speak.

[Hello, my name is Akihiko Kayaba, the creator of Sword & Magic Online… Now it has come to my attention that some of you have noticed the lack of the Logout button in your Status Menu… Now that is not a bug, or a mistake, as I created this game with this soul purpose in mind… Nobody can logout, and nobody can leave the game, and the people of the outside world have been informed that if they try to remove the Nerve Gear on the heads of the Players, it will send a Microwave signal through the Players head, killing them instantly… Some have tried despite the warning, and over 200 players have died already, so with this, I will tell you that if you die in here, the Microwave signal will be set off in your helmets killing you instantly, so tread carefully, and survive until you reach floor 100, and if you beat the boss on that floor, you all will be set free… Oh! Before I go, I have a few gifts for you all… And to the person named Soren Zoldyck, you have helped me create this game, only for it to possibly be your death bed, hehe enjoy fighting for your life asshole]: kayaba

Everyone heard about this, and some remembered that someone named Soren Zoldyck had financially funded the entire making of SMO, and now he was told he would be trapped in this game as well. Some were feeling a little bad for him, while others were wondering if this Soren Zoldyck person knew that this was going to be a Death Game the whole time, and the answer to that was obviously yes, but Soren would deny it, as they would mark him as a conspirator with Kayaba, as well as try and kill him for retribution, but if he says he knew, but not from Kayaba, they would question him on how he knew so.

'Whelp, I guess I'll play the dear in the headlights role when they question me about it': soren

Everyone began to open their gifts sent to them, when they received them, but once they pulled the mirrors out, they all began to transform into their actual faces, and some that didn't transform were hesitant to, but soon gave up. Soon, a group of perverts surrounded Soren and his group, and began to speak, in a haughty tone towards Soren and his group of 3 women, but most of it was focused towards Soren.

[Hey! Look it here boys… It's that White Knight who interrupted our fun with these beauties, but it seems they have yet to use the mirrors… Hehe, go ahead and use the mirrors so we can so the Ugly men under those beautiful faces, as well as the look of disgust on the guys face for marrying them]: random horndog 2

[Hahahahahahahaha!... You tell em Zero!... Show us those ugly faces!]: group of horndogs

Soren was getting quite annoyed with these idiots calling his wives ugly, as he knew that they could each outclass the most beautiful idol in the world, but these idiots had to try and mess with Soren and his group.

[Does Husband want Misha to use the Mirror?]: misha

When Misha said that, both Hancock and Vados were also nodding their heads, and willing to use the mirror now instead of later.

[Sure, lets tease these idiots now, and let them know what we plan to do later afterward]: soren

Soren, Misha, Hancock, and Vados all took out a mirror for their inventory, and looked into it, and in the next second, Soren's face went from some average looking man, to someone that would even rival or surpass the #1 Male model in "World's Hottest Man Alive", while Misha, Hancock, and Vados didn't transform into fat sweaty men, but into beauties who could make the loins of every man explode in their pants at the sight of them, as their beauty could even surpass Goddesses.

[H-Hu-Huba Hubba… Please have one night with me!] Zero

Soren was outraged at the audacity of this idiot, because he thought that Soren wouldn't dare kill him, as that would be him commiting murder, but what the horndog idiot named Zero didn't know, was Soren had killed thousands of men for having lechorus thoughts about his women, let alone asking directly.

[Looks like I will play Orage for a few days]: soren

When Soren said that, he took out his broadsword, and placed it at the neck of Zero before speaking of the lewd acts that he would perform with his 3 wives that night and the detail he went into would even make the Devil blush.

[Just so you know… In the real world, I'm a contract killer, and have killed thousands with no mercy, and I want you to know that right after I kill you here, I will be making hot and sweaty love with my 3 wives while we reminisce how you died here today… Goodbye pervert, and let your next life be one of a modest lifestyle with no perversion]: soren

[...Wha-... You wouldn-]: zero

Zero couldn't finish his sentence before Soren used his Basic sword skills as well as a Skill he learned while leveling up called (Mana Imbue), and this skill would take Soren's MP and imbue the weapon Soren has equipped, and add a +50 Attack damage, and with that one attack, Zero drifted away into particles, as his friends watched on in horror. With this, Soren had unknowingly stopped a Dark Guild known as Laughing Coffin from sprouting up, and spent the next 3 days as one of the first Orange Players.

[Hmm… Killing in games is much less Bloody than in real life… Scram!]: soren

Soren looked up and told the remaining spectators to flee, and flee they did.
