There was a sloping area covered in green grass. The sun was still high in the sky, so it might still be early afternoon. The wind blew through the grass, giving it the appearance of green water; a wave of grass flowed in my direction as I sat atop a large rock. The smell of moist soil and the grass mixed with the wind, and the fragrance drifted into my nostrils. The wind carried to the forest behind me, rustling the leaves on the trees.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡER8KiBh7Lj

I stand up unintentionally from the rock which I had sat on, and fix my eyes on the overwhelming expanse of the horizon. A view such as this couldn’t easily be seen in little old Japan, could it?2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSp1wGDOXp

Finally, I notice my own appearance.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNZJBBGgMw
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTaBd5iRagR
Decorated with the finest of details, a silver full body armor toned with white and blue, akin to those from some myth or legend, adorned my body.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk2pYBpW9j

On my back I carry a large round shield with an elaborate emblem in the center, as well as what can only be described as a divine blade which gave off an awe-inspiring aura.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UL1yJ9pfx
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedgxHkCqzO
This gear is far apart from my normal appearance, but I know it well. Even today, before I fell asleep in front of my computer after playing online games, this gear was equipped to my player character.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBav0aOofI

I slowly move the sword sheath to my waist and whip out the blade. A thin, blue, double-edged blade surrounded by light is drawn. The beautiful blade shines like the light of day. The length of the sword’s blade exceeds well over a meter, giving the weapon a seemingly heavy look. I take a stance with the blade parallel to my eyes, and swing it down.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufYOYHzA8E

It’s light! The weight is such that I can hardly believe it’s made of metal. I lightly swing the unrealistic sword to confirm the weight. Then I swing the sword with one hand. Even though I’m equipped with body armor, I feel light. It’s as if I’m not wearing armor at all.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU212nMaOo

Suddenly, a handful of trees slowly fall within the forest. The leaves of other trees rustle, and the of the birds of neighboring trees all fly into the sky. A slightly dull sound echoes through the area as the trees hit the ground.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjirxDDioXO

2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUls1MgF4bB
The weapons and equipment that I have equipped were of mythical grade, the same as that of my character in the game I was playing.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxMOMxEP6s
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU2pdtFruG
It was truly a rarity to be fully equipped with mythical grade gear. There are a total of six grades of equipment: low, intermediate, high, masterpiece, legendary, and mythical.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKnik86bgR
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgHd0vCULP
The silver body armor I have on is the Heavenly Knight armor,『Belen’s Saint Armor』series. The armor is comprised of five pieces: the headgear, torso, waist, arms, and legs. Not only does it enhance defense and periodically restore a fixed amount of health, it also increases attack power, as well as increasing curse resistance. In addition, fire and light attribute damage are reduced by half. A set of truly broken gear.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg01LjIzLB
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMNxet823K
And the mantle fluttering in the wind behind me is the mythical grade『Overcoat of the Night Sky』. It has the effect of reducing darkness attribute damage, also restoring a set amount of mana over time.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO9jgQyGah
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDukS0CxrR
The shield that I carry on my back was the『Heavenly Shield of Titus』. In addition to high defense and knockdown invalidation, it raised all abnormal status effect resistance values.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbBLeOZ2Em
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGQ7B4r9Nk
Complaints about the broken Heavenly Knight series led to the administration patching it, but the effects of the armor remained ─ it was just that players could no longer use other accessories with the equipment. Consequently, the already limited number of users of the Heavenly Knight series further decreased.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRZliDnedf
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovQVLBn0G7
Finally, in my hands I am wielding the『Holy Thunder Sword』.With its high attack power and agility boost, it’s a two-handed sword I am truly proud of. Like every other mythical class weapon within the game, it has its own special attack, with the penalty being that the player suffers a power reduction after its useage.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVacH8qVSIp
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYDMinsvOi
I return the sword to the sheath at my waist, then, with my right hand, I cast【Flame】. And just like in the game, a torrent of flames shoot out as if my hand is a flamethrower.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWrQZvohnS
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNN5fnM7cM
No… It’s different from the game.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgXDyBzmoW
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkadc4T4sU
If I’m not mistaken, the main occupation of my character was Heavenly Knight, and the subclass should have been Pope.【Flame】is a Magician’s skill and【Flying Dragon Slash】is certainly a Warrior’s skill. It’s not a skill my current character’s occupation should have been allowed to use in the game.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6D2uxCT6gZ
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7NwHjpQZK
Why can a Knight use a Magician’s skill? Then, I had a thought: considering everything, what if this isn’t the game or a dream, but reality?2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT94D9fkIzk
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJgtmzoGBw
If it’s reality, then the skills that I could not use because of my class change should be fully available. For example, a Judo expert who started a boxing career is still capable of using Judo techniques.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz5lp3qbaE
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRj5CQOuE82
With me often reaching the highest level of my occupations, am I able to use all the high-level skills that I had?2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsum9FY0fWB
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjHss9sAEk
The conditions for gaining the Heavenly Knight class are that a character had to possess maximum level in the Magician, Priest, and Warrior occupations. In order to achieve that, I had to gain the occupations of Magic Knight, Advanced Wizard, and Pope. I did not learn all of the skills from each occupation, but I did learn quite a few of them.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8XGW8pghN
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOBpGvvsvE
If anything, if I am able to use all of the skills that I learned, I should be able handle anything that comes my way.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQgejWZWH9
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79NczUwV1p
I wonder if I would have been able to survive if my main occupation had been fixed to Heavenly Knight. Frankly speaking, some of the highest-level occupations can’t really be used. First, there are only four technique skills available. And all of them are flashy skills that cause widespread destruction. Clearly it was a class only meant to fulfill the romance of the developers.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdBljgOnN3
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA09QWuOriS
As it is, I am able to use the【Heavenly Knight Sword Techniques】that allows a two-handed sword be wielded with only one hand, but if I were to use both hands, wouldn’t it increase my attack power?2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4CQeZwMcq
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVhSvnMVbV
I’ve been in this area for a while now, but nothing will get done if I stay here. If this is indeed real, I need to find some people or a town and think of a future plan.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyQtaAsMKz8

I try to invoke the Magician’s support skill,【Transfer Gate】. Pale light is emitted as a three meter wide magic circle appears…2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzMrvpGbux
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCoJudZWX6
In the game, all I had to do is select the name of a town and I would be transferred there. However there is no selection screen now. For a while, I think about what I should do. Incidentally, my vision darkens. And then I notice that the landscape spread out before my eyes has changed.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqCUltUbQo

I traveled about three meters from where I was a second ago. Apparently, this magic can’t be used properly without a clear image of where I wanted to go.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoZZtf3Cti

However, I don’t know any locations in this world, It seems that I didn’t move because of this fact.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjNjNrFltz

I give up…2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnudvKNzqw
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBXk4YgUJf
Wait, there should be one more skill available for movement. The support skill,【Dimensional step】.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBKRwCFzYu
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8evYu1i4RC
The skill lets me move to any location after I select it. In the early stages of the game, it was a skill that allows you escape the range of enemy attacks ─ a skill used when you were surrounded by enemies. But after the middle stage of the game, when the monsters and the boss’ attack range took up the whole screen, it was regarded as a useless skill. Am I able to use it? With no screen to click, I could just be wasting mana.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRU0GIzoWC
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJc1zZhOV5h
I set my eyes on the intended location and activate【Dimensional step】. The scenery changes in an instant. When I look back, I observe that the place I had just been is a great distance away. It’s probably about five hundred meters. In the game, no matter what you did, the skill could only take you to the edge of the screen. In reality, it appears that I can move to any location within my line-of-sight. Though I can’t blow off heads with beams like a certain Esper girl, it’s still a helpful power. With a cool-down time of one second, it can be seen as a very convenient movement method.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwtqMmhEyO
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuH2Ka0WYw
So I continually use【Dimensional step】to navigate the landscape.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZEToypv9g

As the day fades away, it seems that I’m moving in the southwest direction. After leaving the sloping area a little while ago, I see a large river ahead.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTfPGiOsuE
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndZPer2FVK
I transfer to the riverbank and look around. This river is about two hundred meters across. It seems to hold quite a lot of water. When I look at the river, the water seems to be transparent, and I see many fish swimming along with the current.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3MXlAtaXT
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3fMnKM8dZ
Why don’t I take a break and have a drink of water?2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IYZySZxrw
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9XvD6rPmm
I remove my helmet. That reminds me, not only did I not feel heavy wearing the armor, but I also didn’t feel hot. Such a thought was in my head as I brought my face closer to the water.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqZoMWuPsn

My vision focuses on the refection in the water. There are no eyes. In fact, there doesn’t appear to be a nose or even any flesh. In the dark eye sockets, the pale light of the undead can be seen. I stare back at the reflection without any emotion.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboWrnuozml

The water was reflecting the figure of an armored skeleton──2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPqerRQY89

I completely forgot it. The kind of avatar I played the game with.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo2m8Be9G7
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHCsfCn3TV
Your usual game avatar would be a humanoid ─ one that can be customized to suit a person’s own preference. The degree of customization was extensive: you could make a long-eared Elf, or even a pig-nosed Orc.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLvONQHRg9
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzycke6mW3H
There were also special avatars that charged a fee in order to be obtained; one of the special avatars was『Skeletal Body』.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUO71A1TJc9
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QBiyiLoT6
Despite the fee, “it won’t matter if I’m completely covered in armor,” is what I told my friends…2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZKstxQzud
2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImTgZJpi4g
I actually wanted a golden skeleton avatar. With that, I would be known as the crazed hero of justice. When I searched about it later, the head of the guy was a skeleton, and from the neck down it was gold just like the costume of a professional wrestler. Nevertheless, I thought that it would be a completely golden skeleton for the entire time before that…2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XMP92zcqN

2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXlbZ0Ucy8
In this world I have nothing to my name except for this armor. I lack all my in-game items, and I have no money.2008Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFHeI2w8D3
