《Virtual Sword God! 》Chapter 4: First Match
Advertisement
Although Novis hadn't played many games it didn't mean he was clueless with technology. So he understood how to use the interface in the machine. Arthur meanwhile was amazed that everything that Novis had told him was true. They had entered a different world in seconds.
<Player Billybill Has invited you to a party>
<Accept> <Decline>
Novis accepted the party invention. Straight away a hollow human-shaped body appeared next to Novis. Slowly from the feet up, the hollow body started to fill in with features from the feet to the head. The hollow body turned out to be Bill.
Bill turned to Novis, Novis was sweating a little thinking that bill might have been able to see Arthur. "So shall we get started."
Novis felt the pressure leave his body, it didn't seem like Bill could see Arthur he didn't know what to say if he could.
A screen appeared in front of billy, he then started to use his hands and fingers to navigate something. He was going to fast for Novis to see anything.
"Okay, the match is ready. when we get in the game we'll meet down the middle path."
Novis still didn't know what Bill was talking about but decided he didn't want to ask any more question in case Bill would catch on.
Suddenly a big giant three appeared in the blue room in front of them.
<Match starting in 3....2....1....>
As soon as the number counted down to one the blue scenery started to change. Similar to when Bill had appeared, the blue started to make a wireframe of different objects. Then the objects quickly started to fill in.
The sight had Arthur amazed as he saw constructions being built in seconds. Arthur thought this truly did have to be some sought of magic.

The game's map had finished being built. A castle had been generated on one side of the Map where Arthur and Novis stood, opposite the castle around a 1000 meters stood another castle. In between the two castles was a forest. The forest was completely covered in trees apart from three separate paths. One of the paths was down the middle while the other two were on the left and right.
Down the paths themselves above the trees stood four big towers. Before Novis could begin another screen appeared in front of him.
<Please select your warrior>
In front of Novis were a hundred facial images of different characters he could select. As Novis hovered over one of the characters with his finger a mini hologram would appear showing the character doing some attacks. Novis's finger currently hovered over a muscular man holding a chain and ball.
"That one looks like a strong opponent, is that who we get to fight?" Arthur asked.
"No, we need to pick which character we're going to be."
Something had caught Novis eye while looking at the character screen.
"Hey, Arthur doesn't this guy look like you."
One of the characters was the spitting image of Arthur himself. The blonde hair, the chiselled face, even the armour set looked similar. Black base colour with a gold trim. The weapon he held was a long sword that was the same size as the one found in the attic.
"Yes, pick him," Arthur said.
Novis was disappointed in Arthurs response hoping that he would say something or be more curious why there was a character that looked like him in a game.
Novis selected the character and his body started to transform. His limbs grew slightly longer his muscles toned up, and his clothes changed into Knightley armour. He no longer looked like a 15-year-old schoolboy.

"Alright, let's do this," Novis said nervously.
Novis and Arthur had practised a few times switching control of Novis's body. It wasn't hard, all he had to do was relax as if he was trying to sleep. The truth was Arthur had the ability to take control of Novis's body whenever he felt like. Arthur told Novis to relax to make the feeling less uncomfortable for him. Arthur had the experience of this with his first host, so he knew what to do.
Even though Novis was no longer in control of the body, he was still able to see everything that Arthur was doing.
While Arthur and Novis were busy switching bodies an army of ten men suddenly appeared wearing red shashes. They wore no armour and only held a small sword in one hand. Arthur looked to his left and right and could see that another group of ten people had appeared on each side.
"I think there on our side, just focus on fighting the one that stands out," Novis said.
Authur grunted in response.
"I think Bill said to meet in the middle, so we should take this path."
Arthur followed Novis orders and quickly Ran down the middle, While going down the path they passed two towers. Arthur stopped for a while to check them out but there didn't seem to be a way to enter them so they carried on moving.
When Arthur had passed the second tower he could see the army of red sashes clashing with an army of blue sashes.
"They're evenly matched," Arthur said.
"I think it's designed that way."
"I must help them."
Arthur quickly drew his sword and went over to the battle scene. As soon as he reached the battlefield the Blue sash army started to focus their attention on him.
A man swung his blade towards Arthur's body. Arthur simply parried the strike away and stabbed the man in the chest. In one hit the man had burst into a thousand blue particles.
Arthur had no time to figure out what had happened to the man, for another one was quickly approaching him but Aruther made quick work of him, attacking him before he could react.
All ten of the blue sash army had been defeated while two of the red sash were still on the field. They quickly carried on walking towards the castle.
"I think we have to get their castle flag or something," Novis said, unsure of what was needed to be done.
Arthur decided to walk in front of the two men, whishing to protect them. Arthur still found it hard to believe that these things weren't real people.
As the group walked forward they were now twenty meters away from the third tower. Suddenly a giant iron ball shot out from the tower. It was too fast for Arthur to react. The giant iron ball slammed into Arthur sending him flying through the air about ten feet backwards.
Arthur was now lying on the ground in between the two towers. While Arthur felt no pain he was struggling to move his body. Just as he was starting to get up, a shadow quickly jumped out of the forest onto the pathway.
The shadow was now directly in front of Arthur. The shadow was a human, he wore black clothing with leather armour all around his body. In his hands, he held two daggers that were now directly in Arthur's stomach.
