<Error! Error! Error!>


    "Huh? Wha-?! I''m awake!"


    I scrambled toturn offmy Communicator.


    "What was that all about?"


    I pulled out my Stat-Checker and viewed the time.


    "... What?"


    4:48 AM?! It was 3:21 PM when I took a nap. Notice, PM not AM. Did I slept through the day?


    "Nah, impossible. Clock must be broken..."


    That would explain why my Communicator was spazzing out.


    I press on my Communicator to report this to my manager.


    <Error! Communication disabled! Unknown error... Unable to contact personnel!>


    I frowned.


    "The hell?"


    No... Better yet. Where the hell am I?!


    I glanced around. I''m pretty certain I didn''t sleep in this medicore area. The grass are slighty yellow and somewhat unkempt. The Rafallelcafe that was around here looks entirely different. The huge cafehas been replaced with some sort of restaurant joint!


    <Warning! Extensive vandalism has been detected!>


    Vandalism? I don''t even recognize this place!


    "Ugh, must be a new update. Let me logout..."


    There''s no logout button on my screen.


    Rubbing my forehead, I keep muttering to myself that it must be some sort of bug.


    "I don''t think I get paid enough to do this."


    <Warning! Unknown NPC entities detected! Possible tampering of game codes and files!>


    <Unable to contact personnel... Unable to send out Emergency Call... Communication Error!>


    "Unknown NPCs?"


    Now that the AI mentioned it... There''s way too many NPC looking people walking around.This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.


    They all look like civilians with dull looking clothes. No armors, nor weapons can be seen.


    <Unable to determine possible solutions... Calculating...>


    "This must be some sort of bug... Or massive hack..."


    "Are you telling me to kill everyone here?"


    <Affirmative.>


    I am super stressed right now and taking my stress out on something unknown doesn''t sit well with me.


    I don''t know where I am and I have no idea what''s going on. I can''t logout, I can''t contact my managers... Do I still have my powers here?


    I pulled up my GMSkillScreen and saw a small indicator.


    <Unrestricted>


    "My abilities... Are unrestricted?"


    <Affrimative, all abilities are unrestricted.>


    "I don''t think... Not now, they... Ugh, look.They don''t look like they''re doing the game any harm."


    <Acknowledge. Due to sheer amounts of Unknown NPCs entitiesperforming harmless function, it would be unnecessary to perform any sort of purge as it would reduce the effectiveness of the city’s function and game welfare.>


    <Recalculating...Several Unknown NPCs entities has been detected performing harmful function. Please eliminate the them.>


    Oh boy... I really don''t know what I am getting myself into...


    "Transport me there."


    <Teleporting towards location...>


    I found myself in an alleyway with three thuggish looking people towering over a man.


    "P-please! I will pay you back! I swear!"


    "You can''t pay back the interest in your state, bud!"


    It looks like some sort of loan sharking...


    "Please!"


    "Nah, we''re going to take all your assets and sell you and your family to the slave market. Maybe keep your daughter for the boss, haha!"


    ... That''s sick. I think I had enough.


    I turned off my Stealth Mode and shouted.


    "Hey!"


    All three thugs turned their heads behind them.


    "Ah? Who''s the brat?"


    "... Excuse me?"


    "Oi, look at the emblem on his clothing."


    "Mighty fine clothing. That mask too! I think this kid is some noble son! Nab him!"


    Two of the thugs blurred and appeared behind me.


    The man being extorted cried out.


    "K-kid!"


    "... I. Am. Not.A. KID!"


    [Smite]


    My twoassilants instantly exploded into golden ashes before fading out of existance. Not a single trace of them left behind.


    The last thug looked dumbfounded and dropped his dagger.


    "Wha... What did you... No. Please! Spare me!"


    He started kneeling on the floor with his hand clasp.


    "Were you going to spare him?"


    I motioned at his victim.


    "Please... I''m sorry..."


    He prostrate himself before me.


    "... That teleportation spell isn''t going to save you."


    "?!"


    A bright light emitted from his vest cueing the teleportation array.


    [Null]


    The teleportation array shattered instantly.


    "Damn it!"


    The thug blurred into a shadow and rushed out of the alleyway.


    "I had enough of this."


    [Smite]


    The shadow erupted into a golden light and faded away. The only one left is their victim, the man who was being extorted.


    "You may leave."


    "A-ah... Yes! Right away! Thank you very much!"


    The man stumbled and ran out of the alley way.


    <Several Unknown NPC entities has been detected performing harmful functions. Please eliminate them."


    "I don''t think we''re in the game anymore... This isn''t Avant-Garde’s Mirror Sky... I think this is reality. In another world."


    <Host is incorrect. We are currently within a virtual reality called Avant-Garde’s Mirror Sky. This area is part of Rafallel City as proof.>


    I turned my Stealth Mode on before I staggered over.


    "This can''t be Rafallel City... It doesn''t look this worn down."


    <Vandalism detected, please->


    "Quiet. I need to think this through..."
