《VR: Ascension》Chapter 7-The Laws of Reality

Seeing, that he could have killed me but didn’t I decided to come out from under the rock. I looked up and saw his gamer ID. It was Quatu. He was the same species as me a Demon. He has decent looks and was about 5 feet 10 or 11. I also saw that he had the horns and a tail.Furthermore another person followed behind him with the gamer ID Moomooo. This person was also of the demon species. He was about 5 feet 7 with decent looks too. He also had horns but no tail. They look similar to each other so I assumed they were brothers.
“Mhmm I’m new to the game so I was just hiding for a bit to watch what was happening. Plus the people who dies don't direct start the game before us so it doesn't even matter,” I replied.
“Haha oh. How many kills have you got so far?” Quatu asks.
“Hahaha um zero,” I replied, “how about you?”.
Both Moomooo and Quatu’s eyes literally jumped out of their sockets. Regaining their composure Moomooo replies, “85.”
“85,” Quatu replies too.
“Oh yeah your ranked around 15 in kills right?”
“Yeah,” Moomooo replies.
“Well carry on then and I will hide under this rock,” I said.
“Ok…” they both replied feeling the awkward atmosphere that was developing. “See you then and good luck on you're hiding?” They said and walked away.
I went back my rock. I must say with the amount of time I spent with this rock I might as well call it my home. About 10 minutes later I heard a.
DING! DING! DING!
[Congratulation! The Human and Beast race have 73 players left standing and is winning this war. There are still 25 elves surviving and 3 demon players surviving. Wipe out the rest of the remnants and win this war. Good lucks to all players.]
Ding!
[Dark Bunny congratulations! You are one of the final players of this war. Will you accept an S rank mission?]

[Yes][No]
Hell yeah I will. Thus I clicked yes.
[Congratulations! You have receive an S rank mission. Miracle of the Demons!]
[In order to complete this question you must wipe out the Human, Beastman and Elves. Once this is completed you will receive a generous reward.]
[Reward!]
[+3 to all stats.]
[Luck + 20]
[Unlock The Divine Demon Race!]
[+1 Full Health Revival Card]
I saw the mission and my jaw dropped onto the floor. This is impossible they are basically asking for a suicide mission. I looked around and all I saw was a flat land except for three mountains. These Mountains were the base for each of the three forces. The plantaenoid and Elve’s mountain were full of trees and stuff. The human and beastman were full of rocks. The demon and undead mountain was full of ice, snow, and was very cold. The demon race don’t like heat so that is probable the reason why it is so cold.
I didn’t think it was possible to win so I decided that I would be one of the 100 survivors of this and I begin to sneak around to the demon mountain. The demon forces were gone except for Moomooo, Quatu and I assumed it was the safety option available. Further more if I would the humans I would attack the elves first to get rid of any chance of a miracle win. Furthermore the elves have a total of 25 elite players left. To survive this long means they have skill and if each elf kills three humans then they would win. It is more believable for that to happen then three demon players slaying 24 and a half player each. My math might be a bit off.
As I was running up the mountain I met Quatu and Moomooo along the way.
“Where you going?” I asked.
“Oh we are going to the elves side to make a plan to turn this war around. It’s be easier to deal with 25 players then 73 you know,” Moomooo replied.

“Well, good luck and I will hold down the fort,” I said.
Moomooo face palmed himself when he heard what I said. I can kinda understand since there is a higher chance of winning if I work with the elves then alone. Furthermore the reward is so advantageous to beginning players it would be dumb not too.
“Lets stop wasting time and go,” Quatu said and they both left.
I ran up the mountain. The further I got up the colder it became. I was also beginning to enter the snowy region. Since us demons had higher resistance than the other species I was kinda hoping that when they were coming up to get me they were freeze too death. It took me ten to twenty minutes to reach half way up the mountain. I found a cave and went inside. The cave was quite warm and there was a fire going. Furthermore the snow was actually half way up to my knees when I was half way up this Mountain. So I was feeling quite chilly myself even with higher cold immunity.
I looked out into the field but I did not see the battle. I am assuming that the battle is probably happening in the forest where they have the most advantage. Then I thought of a bright idea. Since this is 99 percent realism then it should follow the laws of the real world.
I looked around and I found some fire starters and unused torches. I think this was meant to be used against the Plantaenoid species. I took the fire starters and the unused torches and threw them into my bag.
I’ve decided to help them out by setting fire to the whole forest. It was genius to be honest. Never knew I had that in me. It would wipe out the beastman and human race and the elves along the way. Lastly it would suck for those two demon players but every war has casualties. I solute you for your sacrifice.
Excited about my new strategy I began to hop down the mountain at an incredible speed that even I didn't know that I even had it in me. What took 10 to 20 minutes to come up. Took me 10 minutes to get down. Thanks to this being a game I was not even tired. I hopped onto the field and was running toward the Elves’ forest. With a maniacal laugh and facial features I arrived before the forest. I opened up the map and saw a bunch of colored circles. The map was 4 feet wide and 2 and a half feet tall. The circles for each player were five inches big. I think this is so we won’t know the exact location of each player.
It seems that no one has noticed me yet and was battling each head on. From the circle it shows the elves side were using guerrilla tactics. Furthermore this feature only came about because we are close to the end and if no players can find each other in this vast map then it would never come to an end.
I was at the edge of the forest and I lighted one of the torches. It sparked into a raging inferno. Then I held it right next to one of the trees. It took a while but after a couple minutes it began to burn. Furthermore I saw that one of the blue circles were running towards me. He was getting closer and closer. From the looks of it the blue circle was an enemy circle. The tree finally burst into flames. I threw the flaming torch away and ran away so fast that you would have thought I was ghost.
I was thinking about starting another fire until I realized that if I start two fires it might burn each other out. So I decided not too and just ran back to my cold mountain.

The First Magician

Usually will update Wednesday and Saturday, but there's always the chance I haven't gotten around to writing in a while so there may be a break. Additionally, I intend to edit heavily between arcs.
