VRMMO: Am I The Strongest Yet?

Chapter 18: Night of the virtual world

A simple wooden room of the inn with a single bedroom present at the end of the hallway on the third floor, the very top of the three story inn.

There was a window on the other side, a bed in the center, a table on one corner, and some decorations around the room.

Curtains danced with the low winds flowing into the room, the light of the golden moon illuminating the place along with only one magical light.

"You went through a lot, I see."

They had some bread earlier along with some warm soup so they weren't hungry anymore.

"Thanks for waiting."

Sitting on the bed with both hands held together, they looked at each other like they usually do at nights in the real world.

"I had my difficulties, but they weren't as bad as yours. I'm already experienced with this world and how things work here, and I also did not have to train some slimes and fight with them while holding only a wooden shield."

Az the slime was now resting on one of the small chairs reserved for small pets, while the white sword she was carrying and rest of her heavy equipment were resting on a different corner of the room.

"I went ahead and leveled up a little, and yet you're not too far from me. And besides, how the hell did you get so many achievements? Even I only got 3 after clearing the entire forest, for learning skills at a low level, and after defeating a boss mob ten levels higher than me."

Elio had obtained two common achievements and three rare achievements— something that was even more surprising than his rank (S) in the tutorial.

Obtaining achievements was a difficult thing so even someone like her had only obtained three achievements when she played her tutorial.

She even obtained the highest possible tutorial evaluation rank for all the things she did, and even though her partner had an assessment rank two levels lower than hers, he had more achievements than she did.

And, to make things even more complicated, there were three rare achievements.

"Well, I was lucky this time."

He genuinely did not do much to obtain all those achievements.

He just did what he was supposed to do and what he wanted to and yet he ended up with all those achievements, so it was surprising for him as well.

"Well, you have two points in Luck, four in Charm, and ten whole points in Intelligence. So of course you got lucky…"

Or perhaps the system was treating him like the youngest and most spoiled child. That might just explain why he was getting so many good things.

"We should go to the mages tower after visiting the registration office tomorrow."

Intelligence points were very important for the mages as this unique stat along with the special power called Mana was what defined them.

There were many kinds of mages, but all of them could use the power of Mana and if they have a certain amount of intelligence to comprehend and control various spell structures, they could use what the humans called magic.

"I wanted to go visit the library though-."

"That won't be possible, man. There's a special event coming so the library is temporarily closed.

Why do you think I told you to come to this town of all the other places?"

"…is this 'special event' important?"

"Of course it is~! Just know that we will have a loooooot of fun~."

He had no idea what this event was or, just how special it could be that she was so excited.

He wanted to go and see this great library as soon as he could but, at least seeing her so cheerful made him happy.

"Alright then. Let's go to the mages tower."

He laid down on the bed with an exhausted look on his face.

The day was not simple. It had not been long since he fought the last of the creatures with his slimes and defeated them.

"What are you doing, closing your eyes like that?"

She laid down beside him and looked at him with a confused look.

And she kept looking at him until he opened his eyes and looked back at her with a burdened look.

"What now?"

It was night and sleep was important even in this game.

He had been awake for a while now and after everything that happened today, he was exhausted.

"What do you mean 'what now'? The night is young, we just met, it's our first night together in this world-."

"And you want to Have Fun? Even in the game?"

It wasn't like they did not do it enough in the real world that she was asking for it in this game world as well.

<NO> was one of the very few games that actually allowed lewd things since it was made to be completely realistic, so it wasn't going to be much different from reality.

But still, things were pretty different here since this place was in fact just the game world.

"I've always wanted to Have Fun in this game. You made me wait for more than three years in real world time so faults all on you."

Looking deep in her blue eyes shining under the magical lights of the room, he could not help but sigh once again.

"So all this time, you were only pushing me to play this game so that we can fugk? That's it?"

He smirked at her with a smile that was making fun of her. But she did not notice that as she had broken out a blush in embarrassment.

"W-wh-what do you mean?! Bastard! That's not true!"

"Of course that's the case. That red face is all the proof we need."

The smirk in his face deepened along with the redness on her light toned face.

She was rarely embarrassed like this, but now that she was like this, he couldn't help but think how good it would have been if he could click a picture of this beautiful girl.

"No! No no no no no! No no no! Don't say things like that!"

She started smashing him with the pillow that thankfully did not hurt him as much as he thought it would.

The sounds of night were calming, there wasn't much light pollution in this world so the sky was much more beautiful than what he had seen in the city areas, and most of all… his partner looked happier in this world.

"Accept it. You're just a-."

"Shut up! Shuttttt uppp!"

In the real world, she normally had three kinds of expressions: Tired, annoyed, or stoic.

She wasn't too expressive most of the time, but here… she seemed like a completely different person.

"Hahaha~. Hey! That's not fair!"

"Shut up! It's all your fault!"

He loved the person she was in reality. And unexpectedly, he was also falling for this new side of hers.

She looked much happier than he had ever seen her.

'Dumb girl.'

So now, he wanted to tease her even more.
