Chapter 2: Goals and plans.
Hello again, readers! In this chapter, I am going to narrate to you the story of Leon's arrival in the world of End of an Era.
"*GASP!!!", A young man in his late teens with very handsome features sprung up from his luxurious bed. The room he was in screamed wealth, power and authority, with paintings framed in dark oak decorated with gold, and marble tiles, along with golden chandeliers on the ceiling.
'What happened?!', he thought to himself as he was slowly started to get over the dizziness caused by getting up in a jolt.
He looked around himself and saw a room that he was unfamiliar with. His bed was a king-sized bed with red, majestic bedsheets. The bed was so comfortable, it felt like sleeping on a bed of cotton.
'WTF?!', he shouted inwards.
"WHA-", before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt disgusted by how he was acting. He quickly changed his facial muscles' contractions and made a cold and expressionless face.
'what's happening? why am I suddenly so calm?', he asked himself in his mind, still maintaining a stoic expression.
Suddenly, his head started to hurt like it was getting hammered down by a sledgehammer.
Although, even though this pain made him sweat bullets, he tried his best to control his reactions and not let out a single shout.
'memories?', he wondered after the pain was over.
'No way...', he got out of the bed and power-walked towards the door in the far right corner of the room. It was a bathroom. A very majestic one.
He looked at himself in the mirror, and saw an extremely handsome face with short, golden blonde hair, eyes as blue as crystals, and a well-maintained and healthy body.
He looked perfect.
But his awe suddenly turned into fear, although his face showed no change in emotion.
'Why did I become this dude?!', he exclaimed in his mind.
He had become Zagan Von Asherion, the 2nd prince of the Asherion Empire, and one of the highest level bosses from the game End of an Era.
He turned around from the mirror, exited the bathroom and went back to the bed to sit and think.
'did I really become the dark prince?', He pondered.
'If I did, then this situation is very bad.', he concluded.
'Zagan was a very annoying boss in the End of an Era, and I had taken 2 hours to beat him. If memory serves correctly, Zagan had become the Emperor of the Asherion empire after murdering his 3 siblings and his own father and mother. He was a cold hearted, cruel, ruthless and twisted fucker that was getting manipulated by the final boss. If I remember correctly, the story has not started yet. The main character should still be a weak-ass novice adventurer. The game started after the Main character became an A ranked adventurer. So, I still have some time to prepare for things...', He ran a train of thoughts through his head to try and come with some plan to survive the game.
'One thing I know for sure, is that this guy is insanely strong. He poses a very big threat to the Main character. I died to Zagan so many times when I tried to beat him...', he saw some hope in his situation.
'what was that chant again?', "Mana Circle.", he said out loud, and as soon as he said it, 4 bright blue floating rings stacked on top of each other could be seen floating in front of his chest.
'Great! I'm already a 4th Circle mage!', he cheered inwardly while looking completely bored on the outside.
The game, End of an Era was a very unique game. It was an RPG game without a leveling system. The player had to find rare items, complete difficult quests and play some difficult minigames to get stronger and attain new strengths. For Mage-type players, There were 9 different realms of strength. Each realm was called a 'Circle'. After gathering enough 'battle exp' and finding enough books, The player could then find rare items to create high level potions which would give them the requirements to play and complete the minigames required to reach a higher level. For swordsmen, there were quests about slaying difficult enemies and earning 'Revelations' which would add more moves to their move-set.
'I mainly played as a Mage, so I'm quite familiar with all of the quests and rare items and potions needed to reach higher levels. Also, I know that 'Battle Exp' is just bullshit. You don't need to kill mobs to increase it, you can just cast some spells hundreds of times, and you'll get battle exp. Its kind of like leveling up 'Alteration' in Skyrim.', he recalled.
In the game, Zagan was a 9th circle mage, capable of ruining entire cities on his own. In the game's world, 9th circle mages and grandmaster swordmen are extremely rare. Only the main character's party and some high level bosses are that strong.
'I need to get stronger and I need to not become the Emperor, because only death awaits me if I go in that direction...', he thought. The thought of not becoming the Emperor was extremely disgusting to think about for some reason, probably because Zagan's original personality had overlapped Leon's personality.
'Firstly, I should complete my spell arsenal. I have complete knowledge on where I can get all of the high level spells. Secondly, gear. I should maximize my equipment as much as possible and hoard as many items as humanly possible. I'm not gonna let anyone get their hands on anything that I want. And I want everything this world has. Maybe that's not me, but Zagan talking, I really don't care. Thirdly, I'm gonna have to increase the number of loyal allies and friends I have. They would have to be strong, so that they can back me up during the great war.', he planned out the route he will take to survive and conquer this world.
'I'm gonna make myself an absolute anomaly, a god among men, a being that is untouchable by others.', he then set his goal in his mind.
World domination certainly does sound like a good goal. But he can't do any of that at his current level. He will have to work hard and get stronger and defeat the final boss to realize his goal.
'Lets show this world what true power looks like.'
