《Dearest Online》


 Prologue - A new world

    We have arrived at the "Hub", of course the real name is something else, but with the name being classified, what else do we call it? "What do you think is going on, Emma?" I ask my sister. "I don''t know but it doesn''t seem good." she replies.  Our family slips into the crowd, and after that, I hear a yell. "Everyone come on in! We are testing the ultimate virtual reality!". Of course all of us were confused, who wouldn''t be, when the government invites us across the country, just to play games,we don''t have vehicles anymore, so we had to ride immortal horses and other animals, or walk here. "Why are we here, to play GAMES!?" the most of us scream. The government official smirks and says something that causes them all to stampede in. "90% realism virtual reality, with nerves connected." When everyone starts running in, I am left in the dust, as I am a bit slow compared to everyone else. WAIT!WAIT! SHIT! MY FAMILY LEFT ME! So much for familial bonds... as I slink into the Hub depressed.


    Inside, I see a bunch of doors, and a woman with black hair hands me a card. "Wait! Where is your family, young man?" I swiftly reply, "They left me in the dust." She seems to look aggravated, or sad. "Okay, what is your name, I''ll refer you to our president to find your family." I was honestly shocked, our president is an enigma, so I wasn''t expecting to be directly... referred to the president. "It''s ... Alan, Last name is *INFO REDACTED* "  She seems shocked for some reason, then she snatched my room card. "Sorry, you are a special case, our president will talk to you in-game about your family." She hands me a new room card, and I head to the room. Number 133769? I don''t find anything strange at all about that number, yup, totally.

    A light shines, and a woman with blue hair appears, "Welcome US citizens, to Dearest Online! A 90% realism game with nerves connected! In this game, it is like any other MMORPG. This game is called Dearest Online because like our previous world being our dearest world, this one will over take it, as our old world is now in shambles. You cannot logout, and if you die, you WILL respawn. Our Admins- government officials, will be the Gods in the sky. All right, time to make your path in this world! Good luck!!"


    She doesn''t disappear. I think it might be a glitch.. Suddenly she stares straight at me, "Especially you, 133769. My Dearest.".... Wha- DIVE BEGIN

 Chapter 1 - The One Adored by God(dess)

    I will no longer understand women. Seeing as how a random person is going to act as if we have been lovers for several years, I don''t need to try to understand this. Welp, time to wake up! .... Any day now. Suddenly, in my ear I hear "Choose your username pls." I look at her and see a kinda short girl with purplish hair. Yup, must be still in shock. "Okay you''ll be Alan then." Yup I must really want a sequel of TER* since this must be a dream about a RPG. "Welcome to Saiai." Google translate pls. (Saiai according to Google is Dearest.)


    I wake up in the middle of a town, and it seems to be very empty. Ah well, lets go find fam, okay fam? Everyone is gathered in the plaza. I step into the plaza and find 99 people. Not strange at all. Mmhmm. I literally counted them one by one. Yup.  I''m sure that there are different beginning towns and that we can all regroup on another plACE WHAT THE FUCK!? EVERYONE IS DISAPPEARING WHA THE FAUAUAAAAUAU. Aaaand i''m gone. I teleport to what looks like a hillside with cherry blossom petals raining from above. My inner otaku wants me to look around for the love at first sight, but my experience with women in the last hour says otherwise. I look around anyway to see a certain someone with blue hair. "Hello, darling." she says. Yup, not quite suuuure.


    She looks at me and her eyes seem to be saying ''Why aren''t you bowing down to me'' I take a few minutes and then respond with a very reasonable "dafug?". She feigns surprise and says "Oh, I haven''t introduced myself yet! My name is Lilliana, but you can call me Lily-senpai!" I don''t know what kind of dere this is. She shuffles her feet as if still waiting for me to say something. "Okay, Lilliana." She then starts rolling on the floor yelling "LILY LILY LILY LILY!" I now start walking off the hill.


    OOPH. An invisible wall. Gr8 b8 m8 i r8 8/8 but if i get home l8 my mum mite h8. And that''s when she got my attention/questions. "Where am I, who are you, why are you calling me darling, why are you tsundere, why are you...." And that''s when she snapped. "YOU DON''T PAY ATTENTION TO ME WHEN I''M TRYING TO GET IT BUT YOU GIVE IT TO ME WHEN YOU HAVE QUESTIONS!?" As a 13 year old kid I naturally am not used to this so I run behind the cherry tree and start crying like the wuss I am. "Oh, no, I''m sorry honey! I just got angry you weren''t paying attention to me!" she apologizes. She then does something I don''t expect. She kisses my cheek. I immediately scoot backwards and blush as she looks at me with a slight blush on her face and a smile. " That was my first kiss you know." Not sure if she understands what a 1st kiss means... BUT THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME A GIRL BESIDES ME MUM KISSED MY CHEEK OH MY GOSH WHAT DO I DO FLOP FLOP FISHY DISH.

    Ok I''m over it. "Who are you? And why do you call me darling?" She seems kinda happy. "I''m the president! I call you darling because I''ve been observing you and I''ve decided that you are the perfect one for me!" Isn''t she like 40... That was my next question. "Aren''t you way older than me, and you haven''t even made any real interaction with me until today?!" She then hugged herself and said "Love at first sight! Also I am only 13... I just thought that you liked Bigger sisters.." As she slowly morphed into a little shorter girl, still with blue hair, and ect. She really reminds me of a certain goddess from Kono Subar*shi. I''m okay with the love at first sight thing, kinda. A president being 13 is kinda interesting, but more importantly... FUCK SHE KNOWS ABOUT ME BEING A BIGGER SISTER-CON MOTHER F*CKER! I''m already starting my first relationship bad...WAIT WHEN DID I DECIDE I WOULD DATE HER!? Oh well, might as well make a harem, since she is such a good girlfriend, yup totally. "Oh by the way, if you choose to make a harem with someone I don''t approve of I will kill her..." Yandere too!? Lillith-dere confirmed.

 Chapter 2 - The Demigods

    .I teleport into the town. I''m sure that nothing will surprise me anymore. I SHOULD GET A SKILL FOR THIS :DDDDD


    Skill Obtained!


    "Why the fuck Am I even surprised anymore"


    You aren''t even surprised anymore. After going through a bunch of stupid bull, you now have a 100% chance of not being: Confused, Stunned, Stupid. But you do have a 100% chance of being: Super Smart, Super Cute, and SUPER MINE.


    Master Rank 100/100 MAXED OUT


    ... Lily pls.


    That aside, Let''s go ahead and meet up with the other players. I walk torwards the sign and I get a message.


    Event!


    You are SOOOO LATE. Quickly rush to Guild!


    .. You know if Lily is serious I gotta run. *DAAASH* I''m SORRY I''M LATEEEEEEE!!!!! Everyone looks at me when I enter the room. People are just staring at me. The girls all have their mouths open, drooling. The boys looking with envy. I walk over to an empty chair and sit down. Slowly everything calms down, then I feel someone breathing down my neck.........Scary!


    After we are all briefed on the basics I walk outside. "Hey! Join my party!" I look around and a red haired girl is pointing at me. I look around, dumbfounded by her lack of manners. "Why, though?" I ask. She replies unhesitatingly "I''m already too beautiful for you, but you are the cutest one out of all the boys, and the one of the few worthy enough for me!" I reply instantly since she is soooo charming..."No."  Instantly I feel the mood intensify. All the boys are looking at me with a murderous look. She gets mad because SHE invited me to the party. "Hey, uhhh Alan. You DON''T get a choice. The minute you go outside I''ll find you, and torture you into joining." Most of the girls stare at her with a death stare. She goes outside to grind with her party, AND camp me at the same time.

    After she leaves I mutter under my breath "Tsundere." PSHINK! A knife is lodged in the wall right next to me. The knife slowly despawns. I''m out of here! I run up a hill, a place I''ll always go to, as that was the last time I saw my... I run up the hill. After a lot of detours, a person sits there. He turns back and looks at me. With a smile that makes me blink a few times to see if he is real. He is.. my friend. (Had you fooled :3 Not the person I was referring to earlier xD) "Maxwell! Whats up!" He turns around, and replies "I''m looking for my family, but I think we''ll need to get stronger to find them. Did you get seperated from yours too?" Wow. Looks like he''s in the same mess as I am in. He glances at my hand, I look at it and there''s  a mark on it.


    He''s shocked and brings out his hand.A mark as well?! Is this an event!? 2 people appear, one behind me, one behind him.


    "Hiya Hoooney~~~" As SHE jumps on me. "Please, if you want to "date" then you have to take it slowly..." She pouts and replies with a witty "But I don''t wanna date, I want to marry!!!!" While that is happening, Max''s person is there.


    "So, lets get on too introductions.." a shy girl with blonde, almost orange hair says. "My name is Karen... and Maxwell is my chosen Demigod..." I quickly respond with a "Oh, erm I already know him, as he is my friend before this all happened, and so, the only one I don''t know is you.." Max, not wanting to explain himself like I did says with a quick "Same." She looks around for a bit and after checking to see if anybody was there, told us quietly,


    "Both of you are, Demigods."
