《Starlight Road II》1. Click [Yes]

Thomas felt dead after the ENGL 327 final exam. He dragged himself back to his dorm and threw a hot pocket into the microwave. Laying on his bed, he lazily turned on his computer.
Sure, Thomas felt tired. But it was too early to sleep. At least his neighbor thought so. The wall did not block much of the creak or moan.
Starlight Road II finished downloading... Thomas supposed that taking a peek wouldn't hurt. It's a break well deserved. No, not a break, definitely not a break. It's for educational purposes... and career development!
Putting on his DDVR helmet, Thomas took a deep breath and selected Starlight Road II.
In the void virtual space, a sentence appeared in front of him.
Do you agree to the terms of agreement? [Yes/No]
Thomas poked terms of agreement. An encyclopedia sized contract materialized in front of him. It was 8 sized font.
Therefore, Yes.
Have you really read the terms of agreement? [Yes/No]
Thomas laughed and pressed [Yes].
Are you really absolutely sure you want to be a beta tester? [Yes/No]
What's the worst that could happen? Thomas didn't even have his credit card linked to the game. Yes.
Instantly, the space of darkness dazzled with blinding light. Thomas made a mental note to check with the optometrist if he didn't become blind.

Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10
New Dive Assignment: 0B5 Personnel: Citizen of Gamma G-037-072 Jonathan Kelly World Designation: Epsilon H-037-072-030-010 Classification: Pre-industrial Exotic World, significant outliers in biosphere including atypical flora and fauna. Quarantine protocol in effect pending more data and acclimation testing. Further anomalies include populations of morphologically distinct humanoids, and aberrations in otherwise normative physics laws. Causal chain appears provisionally stable. For the purposes of delaying onset of collapse as well as above mentioned factors, only one subject is cleared to Dive. Initial mandates shall proceed with scouting and surveillance. Further details are classified. Warning: All other qualifying personnel are currently dispatched. Refusal will result in deployment delays and possible unsupervised causal decay. Do you wish to accept this assignment? Note to Readers: This is not MC isolated in a new world. This is new world joins the multiverse. What I'm tentatively coining Subverted Isekai (Formerly I used 'reversed' but, as pointed out, that would be fantasy MC goes to the modern world. Hey, there's idea! Not this book though.). There is plenty of scientific and philosophical stuff; I know that can be a turn off for some. It has a strong bearing on the story, but is mainly covered in the 'Comments & Calculations' section (optional reading of course). If you are looking for an extreme suspension of natural laws with no technical considerations, you will not find it here. Formatting Notes: Audio chatter from characters that are not currently in the scene I format in "inverted commas and italics". Given the layered nature of modern communication, I thought this distinction was best denoted visually in my prose. Critique is welcome. Language Notes Jon is a South African ex-pat. As such he will use some Afrikaans colloquialisms plus a dash of Japanese. Most importantly he says “Ja” meaning “Yes”. Pronounced with a J sound like “yo” and an A sound like “bar”. As in: “Yo, let’s go to the strip bar.” “Ja.” And not the Rastafarian /jya/. Other words: Nee - /niya/ : no Juffrou - /yif-row/ : Miss Lekker - /lacker/ : nice, good, delicious Nooit - /noit/: never The rest is mostly swear words. Indisputably the most useful words in any language and simultaneously holding the least innate meaning. Fok - “fork” without the “r”: fuck Bliksem - /Bluksim/: darn, damn. Also common noun meaning damn person or thing. Donner - “Dorner” without the “r”: originally meaning thunder, can also mean darn or damn. It is often used as a verb meaning: ‘to hit hard’ Kak - /kuck/: shit Voetsek - /foot-sack/: go away
